AGG|ES WILL MEET
CATHOLICS TODAY
Old Rivals Will Open Base
ball Season at the
University.

The Catholic University opens its
baseball season this afternoon on Uni
versity Field. BrOokland. when the Red
and Black team lines up against the
Maryland Aggies.
There promises to be great doings on
the diamond when these two teams
meet, owing to the great rivalry that
was engendered last year when the
BrookIanders ran away with the Farm
ers. The lads from College Park say
they have stronger team than that
of last year and expect to turn tricks
this time.
Much conjecture is being made on the
relative merits of the two teams, many
wondering il the Catholic University
te I'M will be as good this year as it
As last. Green and Mcdonnell will in
PI probability start the ball rolling for
the Brooklanders, while the battery for
NJ A. c., has not been announced yet.
The game will start promptly at 4
o'clock and the students of the uni
Yerstty are planning to start the season
with a parade around the ball field, in
which both teams will take part.
