HECOX MAY COACH
GEORGE WASHINGTON

George Washington University has not
ball coach for the coming season. as was
reported this morning.
Manager Walter A. Sommers when in
terviewed this morning stated that il
was not at all unlikely that Hecox would
be the man for the place but that he had
not yet had an interview with him and
had come to no terms whatever There
is no doubt that Hecox would be a great
acquisition in the athletic department OF
the downtown school. not only on account
of his ability as coach. but as a great
organizer, his genial nature and demo-
cratic spirit always making him a great
favorite and his discipline being perfect.
HecoX for the past few years has been
turning out championship teams at the
Mckinley Manual Training School and
has endearad himself to the bows who
have worked with him. A great MANY
of these boys will be with him this fail
should he and Sommers come to terms
and he VIII also be a great help to the
Hatchetites for the reason that n great
many of his former pupils at Tech will
follow him. He will have on the team
this fall at least three of his former bows
in Thrall, Ellis and Hart all of whom
played with the Hatchettes last fall and
who were members of the champion Tech
team of 1907 There are a great many
of the boys on last years Tech team who
would be great addition TO the George
Washington squad this fall, and il is
quite probable that they will follow their
popular coach.

FOR the West Washington team and had
his opponents guessing throughout the
battle. McMorris was the only man OF
the St Paul team who found Greers de-
livery easy. This boy connected for double
and two singles out of four trips. The big
southpaw allowed three men to walk and
struck out seven. He held his opponents
hitless for six of the nine innings. Meeks
did the twirling for the losers and was
easy picking for Manager Meyers boys.
He was hit safely thirteen times. and
three of this number went for two bases.
Some fast and brilliant fielding was
carried on during the contest by both
teams. After scoring two in the opening
session and with two bases occupied a
fast double play by McDonouSh and
Riddle put an end to the scoring. The
play on Riddles part was some nifty.
The throw from the shortstop was wild
and the first sacker stabbed the sphere
with his gloved hand. He played bril-
liant game throughout. McDonough field
ed his position in perfect style and gath
cred in several hard chances His catch
of Loves fly in the final inning drew
round of applause.
Besides using his bat with telling effect
McMorris pulled down five flies in center
Murphy connected safely for three. sin
giles out Of four trips, and Milton Broome
peeled off a two-sacker and a pair of
singles out of four times up.
