artbreaker for the Blue and Gray
aggregation. II was a hard game 10
lose in that run by run Virginia over
came the three-run lead gained bF
Georgetown in the first inning, and In the
eighth went one tally to the good on a
hard hit ball that was misjudged by Don
Da@ly in left field.
II was the first time in A mighty long
while that Virginia has been able TO get
away with two game i'm A row from
Georgetown, and the fact that the two
victories came right after the George
town triumph in foot ball last IA proved
a salve TO the feelings of che southern
ers and setback to the hopes of the
Blue and Gray.
Tomorrow Georgetown is to meet the
Eastern College team, and as that nine
has not lost a game this YEAR there Is
likely to be another close contest. The
Manassas crowd has won from some OF
the best teams in the country this
spring, among its victories there being
a l to 0 score against Dartmouth
Catholic University journeys to An
napoliS tomorrow to meet the Naval
Academy nine. The Sailors have not
been putting up any too good an article
of ball this spring and II is expected
Brooklanders. 1t is probable that Green
will pitch but half the game. as he is
to he saved for the Georgetown game
which is to be played Saturday.
Another game in the high school
series is carded for today. Technical
and Eastern are due to fight 1t out AT
the grounds of the Railroad Y. NJ. c. A.
League. There is every likelihood that
Tech will come away with the long end
of the score. The Capitol Hill lads
have not shown the class so far that
have the Manual Trainers. and 1t Is
too much of match for them.
a double-header was originally sched-
uled for this afternoon but owing to the
fact that the authorities at Georgetown
refused to let the high school teams nave
that field it was called off. and one game
will be played this afternoon and one to-
morrow. Business and Western will fight
II out tomorrow. and the game will de-
eide much as to the relative merits OF
the different mines. Business has played
Central. and from Ill accounts did better
work than the Blue and White, but lost
more through hard luck than for any
other rea son. and while Tech was defeat
ed by Western. it is probable that Bust
ness will not prove such easy picklngs.
The game which was played yesterday
in the Commercial League between the
Walford and Andrews mines. and which
was won by the latter team, will be pro-
tested by Mr. Gassaway. manager Of the
Walford club. The Andrews manager
played a man who was not member OF
the league. and is not registered with the
amateur commission. and played him un-
der the name of Thompson Chick
Maddox is the man who was used under
the assumed name.
The WaIford manager says that 1t is
sufficient grounds on which to have the
game forfeited. and. the constitution
governing amateur ball is against the
playing of men who are NOT registered,
it is probable that such is the case.
Several Of the league teams yesterday
PLAYED no-result games. The Sunday
School League game between the Ninth
and Hamline teams was played before
the largest crowd that ever watched an
amateur ball game on the league grounds.
and il was an unsatisfactory ending from
the crowds standpoint 1t was rather
an unIucky one for the Hamline team, as
that club had a two-run lead when the
game was called at the beginning of the
last half of the fifth. when Ninth had
one man down. The Suburban and Rail-
road V NJ. G. A. leagues also had to
call their games before the required num-
Der Of innings were played because OF
darkness
