Several times during the game the Mas

but he frightened and saved possible scor-
ing.
Pruny Whitmarsh seems to be the only
man the Manhattans have who can hold
down the position of shortstop. In a
recent game Davis was given try-out
and proved a failure. Yesterday the
little fellow was put back in the short
field and covered his ground in grand
style, although he was credited with an
error.
"Chucky'' Dampier played a stellar
game at third for the winners, making
four assists and one put-out, all of which
were difficult chances.
Jimmy Fegan caught good game for
the winners, allowing but one man to
pilfer an extra base on him.
Hunteman, who has been doing the
bulk of the catching for the Nassaus is

In the hot weather Although there was
driving rain. this served to cool off the
oarsmen, and with the water fiat and the
tide favorable, some very interesting try

When the crews left their quarters they
all headed up stream, and it was thought
then that about all of the five Fights
would be sent over the four miles. Cor

stroke at the three-mile mark being around
thirty-two. But when they reached a
point opposite the Oaks they slowed down
and turned their Fights and tours toward
their quarters. not finishing out the
fourth mile.

figure as formidable contestants in the

were Syracuse and Pennsylvania They

the Quakers nearer the west shore. At

When the Chesapeake and Potomac Tel

rnond Athletic Club yesterday afternoon
at the 1st and w streets grounds by the
score of to ; the losers took a drop in
the league standing, sliding down from
somewhat as a surprise. as the dope
pointed toward the Diamond boys to land
the game.
1t was PioZet's first defeat he having
pitched the other two victories credited to
his team. He did not put up such a bad
game yesterday. errors being responsible
for the loss. When a team makes eleven
slip-ups it cannot expect to win, and this
is what the Diamond bunch did.
Joe Engle, who has signed I'D with the
Diamond Athletic Club, has just received
fiattering offer to finish the season with
the Roanoke team of the Virginia State
League. sEhgle is the Mount ST. Mary S
star who made a new intercollegiate rec
ord this year when he held the Susque-
hanna team down with no hits and only
twenty-eight men faced him during the
entire game. He also toed the slab
against Frederick College when the Mount
winning streak of twenty-nine straight
victories. Engle has about decided to
turn this offer down, as his parents OBJ
ject to him joining the professional ranks.
IL lie remains Ill the CITY ne Will continue
with the Diamond outfit.
ZirkIe pitched fine game for the win
ners, keeping his opponents safe at all
times He weakened a little in the
eighth. making a wild pitch and giving
two bases on balls, but settled down
again before much damage was done.
Altman. who caught one of Megebye' 8
speedy shoots on the end of one of his
digits in Wednesdays game, and had to
drop out, was hurt worse than was at
first thought. 1t was learned this morn
ing that the finger was broken. This is a
hard blow to the Hygienic Laboratory
team. as he was the only good catcher
on its roster.
Schmidt, who relieved Piozet in the
fourth, pitched a very credible game
after he had gotten warmed up to it
In the fifth he struck out the side, and
in the sixth sent two men back to the
bench via the strike-out route.
F'ristoe and Struby made a pretty
double play in the fifth inning. After
Vogelsberger had gotten bingle Cali
soaked the ball right over the keystone
sack for what looked to be sure hit
F'risto scooped it UP, touched second
and got it to first in time to make the
out. 1t was a beautiful piece of work
and he was literally applauded.
