The Dartmouth Inelgibles-men who

another college or other reasons are bar
red from the varsity team-lost to the
Dartmouth regulars in the series of three
games Each had won two games when
they met Saturday, the score then re-
sulting to in favor of the varsity.
Schildmiller, the former Brattleboro boy.
was the star of the day. He covered
| first base for the Ineligibles without an
error, and in five times at bat clipped
two singles, double and three Dagger
and scored three times. Schildmiller is
one of the most versatile athletes in the
country. At Andover he was a member
of the base ball, football basket ball and
track teams He played right end for
Cornell last fall, but later in the season
went to Dartmouth Probably next year,
when he is eligible, he will be seen on
both the Dartmouth base ball and foot
ball squads.
No college pitcher in the country-not
even the mighty Skillen of Dartmouth or
| Ford of Williams-has eXcelled Arthur
Monroe Of Brattleboro, the regular Wes-
| leyan slab artist, as a consistent twirler
this season. Memorial day he had Tufts
at his mercy In the first six inning but
| IS men faced him. He was found for
| five hits in all, and one OF these, which
allowed a score, was due to the misjudg-
| ment of an outflelder. Wesleyan won 8
to 1. On Saturday Wesleyan disposed OF
Manhattan college easily 10 to o, only
two hits being made off Monroe in the
seven innings in which he occupied the
box. Perhaps Monroe's greatest triumph
| came Tuesday when Wesleyan van
| pushed Dartmouth 80. Only 80 batters
faced Monroe and but one hit was made
| off him. Two Dartmouth men reached
second and one landed safely on third
| But for another players misjudgment
in the Tufts game Monroe would have
shut out three college teams within less
| than a week.
