| Trust Company and went safe were ball
F.; that should have been handled.
That the winning team last year shoui
be able to start the season again b.
| trimming one of the best teams in tn
i league by the score of II to in six in
| nings certainly causes it to look a
though that team will again cop tn
championship.
Until the fourth inning Of the gam
, the score was pretty close and the gam
was nip and tuck. but in that chapte
the American Security Oh eight hits
few errors and misplays scored
nine runs. Again in the sixth the Wash
ington Loan and Trust nine blew up ant
the Security company aggregation chased
seven more runs across the pan.
Rawlings did not show the streak OF
wildness yesterday that he has exhibited
at times this year. The American Sc
curity and Trust star seemed TO have
the opposing batters guessing all the time
and was able in the main to get the bal
over fairly consistently. The fifth inning
was the only chapter in which the Wash
ington Loan and Trust crowd connected
with his twisters to any extent and In
that period the team annexed two hits
which. with two passes. caused the scor-
ing Of three runs. Two of the three bases
on balls given in the game came in that
inning.
Catholic University will have another
hard game on it's hands today. when ii
tackles the Agricultural and Mechanical
College of North Carolina. The southern
nine won from one of the big league
teams this spring by the score of : to ],
and besides that ii is the reputation OF
that school that it generally puts out one
Of the best ball teams in the country
every year. 1t is probable that Ryan will
be used in the box today.
The poor showing made by Georgetown
against Virginia yesterday was 4 great
surprise to those who have been acauaint-
ed with the good work by the Hilltoppers
in the last few games played. In the
past two weeks the Blue and Gray has
met some of the best college teams in
the country and has administered trim
mings 20 them, but yesterday it seemed
to suffer complete reversal of form, its
pitchers being hit hard and it being UNI
able to connect with the opposing pitch
er's delivery. Rixey. who was on the
mound for Virginia, had everything. and
gave the local aggregation no chance
whatever to get away with the long end
Of the score. Only three hits were made
by the Georgetown team, one being Sc
cured by Feenan and two by Fienli, who
did the pitching.
The to defeat suffered by the Blue
and Gray is the worst received so far
this year.
Today Georgetown will meet the North
Carolina University nine on the Hill
top The work of the Hilitoppers has
been so erratic that it is hard to tell
just what will be the result Of the game
The Tar Heels evidently have good
team. judging by the scores made against
other mines this year. and the game
should be good one
j, is probable that Lynch will do the
box work for the Blue and Gray team
today 1t is possible that White will be
sent in to DO the hurting. though. at the
last moment.
Greene pitched in great form yes.er-
day against the North Carolina team and
won for his side by the score of to I.
The Tar Heels got but two hits off the
Brookiand twirler and he mad. ten of
their number take back seat by the
strike-out route. Catholic University
showed little better form at the bat than
did the Southerners, it being able to con-
meet safely with the ball but five times.
