and Mrs. Cleveland stepped aboard and
returned to Lakewood. Whether she did
so in response to a message from here
could not be ascertained. The children re-
manned in Lakewood.

third innings, when Simpson took up the
finging. He proved somewhat of a puz-

tiers. but the home team managed to
bunch several hits. which gave them their
runs. The Georgetown team lost at least
three runs because several Of the players
were playing too much individual ball.
and would not take chances on the bases.
Mayock at second played a fine game,
his only misplay being on a throw home
to catch a runner. In the first inning he
pulled off a fast double play with Nc
Donald. Again in the second he figured
in double play He also led his team
with the stick, getting three bingles. Nc
Donald connected for a triple to left in
the eighth, which figured in run for the
locals.

afternoon. which marked the opening OF
the intercollegiate aquatic season Of 1905
as we'll as the beginning of the annual
races between the two institutions, Har-
ward won from the Naval Academy by
half a length. The winning time was ten
minutes and thirty-one seconds, good for
so early in the season. though a minute
under the record. The time of the Navy
crew was ten minutes and thirty-three
seconds. The unique feature Of the race
was the closeness between the two boats
at every stage and the half length which
the visitors barely squeezed out at the end
was the greatest distance the boats were
apart at any time.
Conditions were ideal for the race The
sun shope brightly and there was a crisp,
pleasant breeze during the afternoon. The
high surrounding hills and the many craft
varying from small rowing and sailing
boats to naval yachts and torpedo boats
made IL beautiful and Interesting scene
For the first time a race was rowed on the
present Severn river course up stream.
The crews were: Harvard-Faulkner

Easy on the woman: easy on the

Fels-Naptha way of washing.
Fels-Naptha soap does away with all
the hard and disagreeable part of washing
clothes. Little rubbing, no steaming suds

Then, clothes last longer with no boil
