Washington And Lee Athletics

he was credited with the inter-colle- giate strikeout record
 Trinity college in Durham on Tues day will end the season for Washington and Lee. Last year the teams played three games. each winning one and the third game a tie game.
 The blue and white team will arrive in Lexington Wednesday night to be greeted by the happy students, for they are confident that the season will close even more successfully than did 1910, which was considered the best in l..e history of the university.
 Football
 Lexington, Va, April 30.-Manager R. w. Pipes has just announced the Washington and Lee football schedule for next fall. There has been some dif- ficulty in arranging the games and this delay was caused by late election of manager. Every student at W. and l.. is glad that ..-e schedule includes a game with A. and M. of North Car olina because of the unfortunate can cellation of last fall when the team would have played the game in their crippled condition if it had been left to them to decide. The contest this year will be held in Raleigh instead of Lexington as heretofore. The regu- lar games with V. P. I. and Univer- sity of North Carolina appear as before.
 The team will not leave Wilson field until the time for the game with " P. l., on October 2S But the games which are to be played here are expected to be clean, fast contests and will go far to develop a strong and peppery squad. The captain of the team for 1911 is D. c. Moomaw, who played right guard. He is expected to hold the same position as last year, where he stopped so many plays with signal success. pr. J. w. n. Pollard will coach the squad again and with his experience of last year is expected to turn out a strong aggregation.
 It is a matter of some regret here that the University of Virginia has no place on the schedule, but the fault of this seems to be outside of W. and l.. or the management at Charlottesville was offered a game anywnere In Vir- ginia except at home, but refused to rlay anywhere else. game had also been expected with Davidson but it had to be given up because of the game with A. and M., since there was not room on the schedule for both games.
 The schedule is made out as follows:
 October :, Roanoke college on Wilson -,eld, Lexington. Va
 October IA Hampuen Sidney on Will son field. Lexington, a.
 October 21, Wake Forest college, on Wilson field, Lexington, Va.
 October 22, V. r. I. at Roanoke, Va,
 Novemper 4, Medical college of vfr- ginia on Wilson field at Lexington, Va
 November II, A. and M.,, of N C., Norfolk.
 November 25, open.
 November 3o Thanksgiving, Tulane university in New Orleans.

Lexington, Va, April 30.--The Wash | ington and Lee varsity baseball squad left Lexington Saturday night in private Pullman on their annual south ern trip. Besides Coach Pollard and Assistant Managers G. c. Jackson and R. R. Witt, Manager Slough will carry 12 players on the trip. The following men compose the squad, 1911 Ed Brown, third base, 1912; W. l.. Web ster, center field; W W. Gwathmey, pitcher; R. Beddow, catcher, 1913; Capt. Smith, second base Harry Moran, pitcher; W. A. Erwin shortstop; Turby- fill, left field; H. E. Peoples, first base. 1914; Donahue. catcher; R. Moore, pitch CT; Dooley, pitcher.
 The team will leave Lynchburg for Atlanta on the lorida Limited at II p. m. The first games will be played against the University of Georgia in Athens. Georgia was the best team in the S. I. A. A. this year, but the Lexington boys are confident that Mo- ran can beat them again and are hope full that one of the second string men can cop the game on Tuesday, Last year Moran let the Crackers down with one hit and famed IS of their batters. Wednesday the blue and white line up against the fast University of South Carolina in Columbia, s. C.. The Lex ington boys trailed them in the dust on Wilson field last week to the score of 16 to and are confident of get ting at least one of the two games to be played in the Gamecocks camp. In Chapel Hill Friday and Saturday they line up against the Tarheels for two games Last year Washington and Lee beat North Carolina in Lexing- ton to with Efird in the box. The games will decide the championship of this division as Carolina has twice de- feated Virginia. Therefore, Coach Pol lard will strain every effort to get away with a clean slate. Washington and Lee believe that their premier southpaw, Moran, can beat any team in the division, his record on the mound for the Lexingtonians being clean with twenty-odd straight victories.
 May they go up against what they believe to be the hardest proposition of the year, A. and M of North Carolina In Raleigh. Last season with Moran In the box Washington and Lee battled A. and M.

 "You may be among them. " Therefore, it is of the utmost importance that You" go to the Probate Judges office at once, take your poll taxe re- ceipts with you, and see that your name is placed on the list, if omitted. Do not neglect this, your political rights as a citizen depend thereon.

ball for many years. He is game, clever on both the offense and defense and a fairly fast man on the paths.
 Pittsburg is playing Hunter, new man from the American association, at first. Fred Clarke believes he will develop, but he is far from being up to the standard at present.
 Charley Dooin has not settled on his regular first sacker yet Bransfeld, who was the regular guardian of the sack last season for the Phillies, Is beginning to go back. Luderus wasn't good enough for the Cubs, so it is hard to figure how he can do any better in the town of slumber. Miller has not had much opportunity as yet.
 Clarke Griffith has corker in Hob- litzel. While not in the Chase class, he is very valuable man. He is especial ly adept at pulling in wild heaves from the infielders. He can stretch mile and is favored because of being a nat ural left-hander. He covers bunts fast and is dandy at killing off sacrifices with his quick portsde chunks to the mid- way.
 Konetchy is fair man. He got off to flying start, but has not improved much over his first seasons work in the National league. Still Roger Bresnahan believes he is the best in the business.
 The Yankees have man playing sec- ond, Jack Knight, that would be pipptn if he could get with team where he could play that base. Of course, there is no chance of him drawing that po- stion while with the Tanks. But, when Chase was laid up last year Lanky John covered the initial bag and performed like Chase himself.
 It is likely that, when the drafting season arrives next fall nearly 3every first baseman in the minors will be s-- lected for try-out in the National and American circuits. Without a. good man at first no team can expect to figure in the pennant race

New York, April 30.-Capt. F. von Let ten Petersen had the deck himself when the Princess Irene went ashore off Fire Island L. l. The vessel was proceeding slowly, her sounding machine going and her commanders hand on the engine room telegraph. The fog lay so thick that the look outs on the vessels forecastle head were invisible from the bridge, and Fire Island light might just as well have not been burning.
 That quality of fog which distorts sound CT deadens it altogether was at work in the darkness and none on board the Prin- zess Irene could hear the surf falling on Lone Hill beach, few hundred yards away. By his chart Captain Petersen believed that he had plenty of water underfoot.
 In accidents of this nature it is upon the captain that the burden falls. His passengers look to him for protection and his employers to rescue their valuable property from total destruction.
