was close, but the ball reached the Vir-

1t IS doubtful II there was another play
made that was so thoroughly enjoyed
by the spectators. and, as Georgetown
was two scores ahead and going good
they were in a frame Of mind 20 take
such happenings good natuTedly.
Georgetown handled the ball Ike a
veteran aggregation in the infeld. the
two errors being the result Of a poor
throw 10 second by Feenan. and a foul
fly that was dropped by Sitterding near
the Virginia bench. All Of the balls hit
into the inheld were well taken care Of
Cogan and O'Connor doing fine work and
getting In front of some vicious drives.
In the seventh. Hume drove one at Co
gan and he held on 10 the ball although
it nearly took his hands of. O'Connor
took a singing bounder of Douglas
bat in the eighth that looked 70 the
crowd like a safe drive through first
base territory. The visitors work was
good in some instances but they blew up
on easy chances in tight places.
Both Cntchers Do Well.
Few stolen bases were registered
against either catcher. both Feenan and
Roam catching good game and throw
ms 10 the sacks in great form. Feenan
probably caught the largest number try

Washington, Nov. 30-A uniquely difficult situation confronts President Taft, today, in his efforts to com plete his message to Congress. With the passing of Republican control of the House, the President has hoped to accomplish a big program of legisla- ton at the coming short session. But Speaker Cannon. Senator Hale and all the advisers who stood by him, last year, have told him there is slight hope for the passage of but little more than the appropriation bills.
 According to reports, he spent much time d:ctating his message, on the way to and from Panama, and when he returned to Washington, a week ago, had it we'll in hand. Then the leaders began to arrive and to visit the White House.
 Taft's long program was strongly opposed. Though the message is now expected to cover a wide sweep of subjects, it is not believed that Taft will try to force through any lengthy list os laws.
