GEORGETOWN PLAYERS OUT
Thirty Baseball Candidates Practice

Trying for Varsity StaH.

Thirty men responded to Capt. Simons'
call for candidates at Georgetown yes
terday. The initial practice was held on
the Prep field.
Nine men are out for places on the pitch
ing staff this year, and from indications
this department should be especially
strong, a condition that has not existed for
the past three years. Cantwell. Montgom-
cry. and Devine. of last years regulars, are
out again. A great deal is expected from
the new men. Michael, the former West
ern High School twirler, is counted upon
to make good While at Western he was
considered one OF the best preparatory
school twirlers in the East. His defeat
of the Princeton Freshmen while pitch
ing for the All Washington High School
team last spring is an indication of his
strength. Diamond and Martin, of the
last years Georgetown Prep team. have
been working hard and are expected to
make a strong bid for berths. DiIkes is
another promising pitcher.
Schlatiy. Montgomery. EclIenrode, Duffy
and Galligan are candidates for the back
stop Schlafiy and Montgomery look the
most promising
Mcdonald. the former Central High
School star, is counted upon at first base.
Leahy of the 1907 Reserves. is also ex-
pected 70 make strong BID for the place.
Scheller is to be the leading candidate for
second base apparently. Conde PalIen and
Frank Carlin, also of last years Re
serves. are out for the position. Ex-
Capt Smith is carded 10 play short this
season. For third base there are four
candidates, Mess. Cohen, Doonin. and
