the time he wrote them. He
handles words and makes every
insinuation against me which it
seems possible for his unscrupu-

the following language. About

FELLOW CITIZENS:


Every effort at the close of a
campaign to besmirch the record
or good name of candidate for
office, bears suspicion and dis
honesty on it's face. The pur-
pose is to hit below the belt,
stab in the dark. and dodge the
return blow. Any charge or at
tack that deserves consideration
or that can be sustained, will be
made on due notice and in the
open. Any other course an hon
est man would spurn and brave
man condemn. Voters have but
to remember this to relieve them
selves from embarrassment, i'm
position and fraud. Any candi-
date who thus seeks to take az
vantage of his constituents, if
elected. Such methods almost
justified Napoleon in his remark
about Metternich, THAT he was
almost a politician because he
was such a first-class liar" With

My record stands above re-

TIGERS HERE TOMORROW.
Dolly" Gray May Twill for George.
town Against Princeton

The first of the annual Easter week
series of base ball battles between
Georgetown and Princeton will take place
on the hilltop field tomorrow afternoon,
beginning promptly at 4 o'clock. For
years these games have been the biggest
events in local collegiate base ball cir
cles, and despite the fact that both the
locals and Tigers are weaker this season
than they usually are there Is no doubt
that tomorrow's and Mondays contests
will be well worth witnessing.
Joy has been sent into the Blue and
Gray camp by the announcement that
Dolly" Gray. the old Tech pitcher, will
be used tomorrow IL possible. Gray's
arm has been ailing ever since the first
practice out Of doors, and because of
this Capt. Murphy has been backward
in calling him to the slab, but from the
way he handled himself for the three In
nings he served them up in the battle
against the st. Joseph aggregation and
from his work in practice during the
past two days it has become evident that
he Is again approaching his old form,
and because Of this there Is every likeli-
hood that he will be in the box when
the Princeton nine comes to bat In case
he Is not called upon the choice will fall
between OConnor and Balzer.

sinus yesterday has caused the rooters
of the school to feel more confident over
the outcome Of the games against Prince

GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY
WINS FROM URS|NUS
Heavy Batting and Excellent
Pitching Too Much for
Visitors.

Georgetown made up for it's defeat by
Fordham Wednesday by taking the strong
Ursinus team into camp yesterday after
noon to the tune of Z to ?. This result was
attained for Georgetown by terrific hit
ting. In fact. while Ursinus is accred-
tied with four errors, they came at a
time when they were not costly.
In the first Ursinus started well BY Starr
walking and West advancing him to third
by sacrifice. He scored on Pownell' S
single to the left garden. In its half of
the first Georgetown came right back
with one run. Murphy hit to center and
Stterding followed with a double to left.
Georgetown then started playing her
usual game, and, after shutting Ursinus
out in the second proceeded to put the
game on ice. Cogan went out, second to
first, and then the merry -go-round started.
Gibson singled to center and Feenan re-
ceived a pass. On a passed ball they
both advanced a sack and Balzar dropped
the sphere over the right-field bank for
home run, scoring Gibson and Feenan be-
fore him. Hunt then went out, short to
first. Murphy's drive was too hot for
Isenberg to handle, and with Murphy on
first Sitterding duplicated Balzars feat
by driving a homer over the left-field
bank. Dugan then flied out to third, re-
firing the side.
The game ran smoothly along until Du-
gan brought the stands to their feet in
the sixth by making long running catch
of Horizons long drive to left, which
robbed him of his hit.
In the seventh Georgetown got a man
over the rubber when Murphy hit safely
to right and McNeile bungIed Sitterding's
long drive. Murphy slid home. In its
last chance Ursinus tried to pull down the
leaders, but good handling of fast hits
by Sitterding and Gibson stopped them
after Palmer had reached first on Co.
gans error and scored on kickland's dou-
BILE to deep center.
Capt Murphy earned special mention by
getting three safe hits out of four times

NEW PROFESSIONALS
AT LOCAL GOLF CLUBS
McWatt in Charge at Column
bia and Sargent at
Chevy Chase.

Both the Chevy Chase and Columbia
Golf clubs have new professionals in
charge of their links this year George
Sargent has been at the Chevy Chase
Club since the latter part Of last year
while Bob McWatt took charge Of the
new Columbia course Tuesday.
A strange coincidence is that McWatt
worked as assistant to Sargent at the Of
tawa Golf Club in 1905. McWatt is
twenty-four years Of age and a native of
Messelburg, Scotland. When he was four
years Of age his father became profess
sional at the Epson Golf Club and reared
his boy in England. His father is still
holding the job at those links, which has
as a hazard the EPSON race course on
which the Derby is run. After an appren-
ticeship with his father young McWatt
worked at club making in Edinburgh and
London until he secured the position as
assistant to Sargent
In 1907 Mcwatt became professional at
the Lake Geneva (Wis) Country Club,
one Of the finest courses in the west, and
the winter In England and only returned
to Washington last week.
George Sargent, the present American
open champion, took charge of the Chevy
Chase links after James Douglass left to
accept~>a position with one of the Phila-
delphia golf clubs. With hints Bill Kill
gour, who is regarded as one of the best
golf club makers in the country. and the
members of the Chevy Chase Club are so
pleased with his clubs that already many
of the golfers of that club have ordered
new ones from him.
The instruction work of McWatt at the
Columbia Club and Sargent at the Chevy
Chase will be watched with interest by
members of both clubs, as it is expected
both professionals will endeavor to outdo

Team.

The Sherman Athletic Club scored an
easy victory over the Treasury Reserves
yesterday afternoon on the White Lot
diamond by the score of II to 5. in a
loosely played game. This makes two
out of three games that the winners
have taken this season from the Treasury
team. The losers used two pitchers in
the box, but they all looked alike to the
Sherman boys, as they had their batting
eyes with them and hammered the ball
good and hard.
The feature of the game was the bat
ting of Morris, for the winners, who had
a record of four hits out of as many
times at the bat. Callahan, who was on
the firing line for the winners. pitched a
