GEORGETOWN NINE
kehoe Holds the Hilltoppers
Safe at All Stages.
FIENLI IS POUNDED HARD
New Workers Jump on Blue and
Gray Twtrler for Twelve Safeties,
Double-Furey Works Well Behind
the Bat for the Losers.

Fordham outclassed the Georgetown
varsity nine on the Hilltoppers' diamond
esterday, winning with ease, to 0.
The New Workers were never in danger.
kehne holding the Blue and Grey team
safe at every stage of the game, while
Fienis shoots were hit to all corners
of the lot, the Fordham sluggers touch
ing him for eleven safeties while he was
on the slab.
Hunt was the bright star for the
Georgetown aggregation, the little out
fielder getting half of the hits credited
to his team. Hunt also snagged a long
fly that looked like a sure homer.
Seven of the New Workers connected
safely with Fienlis twisters, Chapman
polling out three, including triple that
went to the college steps. The tall first
saCker put up a good fielding game and
made a pretty stop of Donnely's liner
in the sixth that was ticketed TO the
Stands.
kehOe had the Hiltoppers completely
at his mercy. the bases being loaded but
once and then the best that F'urey could
do was a little grounder to Lynch that
the third sacker got home in time TO stop
Sitterding from counting.
The only redeeming features for the
Georgetown team was the work of FWey
behind the bat and the fielding OF
Murphy. The big back stop was in the
game all the time and held up the twirl-
ers in rine style. Furey accepted twelve
chances without the faintest semblance
of an error. and Murphy gathered in
three long fiys that had the earmarks OF
hinSles. the drive of Scanlons in the
NTH being right on the top OF the bank.
Fordham scores in First.
Fordham started scoring right of the
reel Mccarthy. the lead-or man,
smacked the first offering of Fienli over
the bank for a circuit trot. len the
Blue and Grey twirler settled down and
held the New Workers safe for the next
three innings.
In the fourth Scanlon led off with
single TO left center. but a true peg of
FUrey's nipped him at second. O'Reily
struck out and kehoe poled one to right
for a single. Sharkey hit the first ball
pitched for a single, putting kehoe on
third, from where he scored moment
later when Umpire Belts called a balk
on Fienli. Gargan ended the inning by
flying out t" Murphy.
Fordham counted again in the seventh.
when Chapman cracked out a triple and
crossed the pan when Lynch dropped
bunt in front Of the plate.
The final fuslade OF hits came in the
eighth. when four runs crossed the pan
on as many safeties. and a hit batter.

o Reilly followed with a bingie TO center.
kehoe singled. scoring Scanlon and Shar-
key flied out to the pitcher. Gargan
doubled to left. scoring O'Reily and ke-
hoe. O'ConnOr then went on the firing
line for Georgetown. Chapman singled
10 left center and Gargan crossed the
pan. Murphy throwing Chapman out
a second when the big first basemdn
tried to stretch his hit into two-sack
er. This ended the scoring of the Ford
ham tribe.
Saturday the Hilltoppers meet Prince
ton and good game should be the re-
suit. White will work in the box for
Georgetown with Furey behind the bat.
