PRINCETON BOYS
DOWN GEORGETOWN
Tigers Take Second Game of
Series Before Large
Crowd.

Before one of the largest crowds of the
season Princeton defeated Georgetown
yesterday afternoon on the latter's field.
to 3. The poor showing made by the
local collegians can be attributed to the
wildness of their pitchers and hard luck
while on the other hand every break that
Georgetown made Princeton jumped on IL
with both feet. not once failing to take
advantage of any error Those boys
must carry four-leaf clovers in their
pockets Skip Wymard. who pitched
so well in Saturdays game. went into the
box for Georgetown. but was very wild
and after passing four men in two in
nings he was taken oft and Smoke"
Balzer took his place. Balzer was also
wild. although he might have won the
game had it not been for his teammates
errors, every one of which proved costly.
Georgetown had men on the bases in
nearly every inning. and when q single
would have meant "a run or more none OF
the men was there with 1t. while Prince
ton had no difficulty i'm getting hit when
il meant a run.
The best play of the day was made by
Capt. Murphy OF the local team when
with two out Reed. the Princeton short
stop. smashed one almost to the gym
in deep center. Murphy started off with
the crack of the bat, and after running
about twenty feet turned just in time to
stick his mitt in front of the ball and
hold To it. 1t was beautiful catch
and he was given cheer after cheer when
lie came in to take his turn at the bat
The Princeton players were full of snap
and ginger throughout the game while
the usual pepper of tne Georgetown men
was lacking. Steve White. who pitched
for Princeton. had his drop ball and
shoots working i'm great style, tanning
eight of the locals, and his support was
of the best.
Sam White of the Jersey team was
called out in the third by Umpire Belts
for interfering with Menefee's throw tc
catch Reed at second. and sent Reed
back to first. White was at the bat and
poked his stick in front of the George
town backstop when the latter threw &c
second. but Belts had his eyes peeled and
promptly called White out
The game was called in the first halt
of the ninth on account of darkness.
