Quakers Trim Georgetown

For the second successive time in two
days the red and blue clad baseball
warriors of the University of Pennsyl-
vania defeated the Georgetown nine on
the latter's home grounds yesterday.
chiefly through the medium OF Pitcher
Bradley by TO l.
Icy winds which swept across the dia-
mond made the large crowd of loyal
rooteTs. who crowded the stands in an
ticipation of q glorious revenge for the
defeat suffered on Friday, decidedly I'M
comfortable. But it was far, far worse
on Cantwell. who was sent IN to wreak
the much desired vengeance. The cold
evidently had a disastrous effect on that
gentlemans pitching arm and in the
third session his delivery was bombarded
TO every corner Of the lot. Every man
on the visiting team took a turn at the
bat In this inning, and aided by an
error and two bases on balls. knocked
out four hits, and I'VE runs.
Bradley a Mystery.
The chief and primary cause OF the
defeat however lay in the mighty arm
OF the aforementioned Bradley. This
collegiate wizard had speed TO spare,
which he coupled with almost perfect
control. As his chief asset OF mystifi-
cation he employed an out drop which
began It's sensuous curve about three
feet from the home pan. and which
made the Georgetown batsmen look
foolish. During the entire game only
thirty-One men faced him, and Of this
number fourteen were struck out, and
but two we're able to connect safely.
With the exception of Courtney, who
scored Georgetown's lone tally, only one
man reached second base.
The nelding OF Georgetown was err
ratio, another fact due no doubt 70 the
extreme cold. Seven errors were chalk
ed up against them, most Of which were
costly. Pennsylvania, on the other
hand. helded WELL the work OF CARR
son at second. and Thomas. an ex-
! Central High School star, at third,
shining out with particular briliancy.
In direct contrast from the previous
games Of the season, yesterdays con-
