slapped an easy one TO Barry md was
tossed out the finish seemed near. With
two runs in the lead, two out, a man on
third, and a pitcher coming up, it meant
home and the babies and hash and all
those joys. The pitcher was Mons Otis
Crandall, and what he did was a shame.
He hit that ball so far out to center,
and so high over Oldring's head, that
before he stopped he was on second
and Fletcher was home. Devore, with
a screeching slam to left then sent home
the tying run.
Then Mack did what he should have
done long before. He sent for Eddie
Plank. and after the Athletics had wor-
ricd through a resultless round, Plank
went in to save it. And then came
Doyle, the hitting hero of the day The
Goddess of Luck was simply making
bum out of the Athletics. Doyle. after
taking two hitIess swings at PIank's
offerings, dropped a fly right on the left
field foul line, where no one in the world
could get near il, and he took TWO bases
SnodGrasS bunted and Plank shot the
ball to third. losing both runners, where
upon the esteemed official scorers re-
corded ii as a base hit. That stirred
up some more sound waves and turned
every hammer in New York into a harp.
1t set Broadway ablaze and banished the
gIooms to New Jersey.
Held on Their Bases.
But the Athletics still refused to he
beaten. Murray flied to Murphy. so close
in that Danny held the runners to their
bases.
Now listen closely, for here comes
the oldest part and the strangest Of this
queer afternoon of sport. Danny Muir
ply. veteran, and old enough to know a
lot better, pulled bone which means an
upright play. Merkle, who was the VIC
tim of that other national calamity that
gave the Cubs pennant, hit a fly down
ihe right field foul line
1t would have been foul had Murphy
let 1t go, but with the single idea Of
catching that ball and heaving it home
in time to head off the run that would
give New York victory. he caught it be
fore II reached the ground and heaved
desperately to the plate. You understand
what that means. If he had let the ball
fall foul ii would have been two strikes
on MerkIe, and perhaps-but there are
100 many perhapses in this. Anyhow,
ne caught the ball, and Doyle, seing vic
tory. came racing for the plate with the
surf boat of wild acclaim pounding down
around him from every seat in the great
stadium
Now, listen to something stranger
Doyle never reached the plate or touched
it-unless he came back after the game
was over. He slid. although there was no
use of sliding-and he slid so far be-
hind that ultimate bit of rubber that he
missed 1t two feet and arose and tore
for the arms of his joyous comrades
Lapp, and it seemed no other member
of the Athletics team, saw him miss
the plate. They did not make a claim
and the game was over. Umpire KLEIN
saw 1t and stood waiting. but after the
crowd had swirled like Niagara of hu-
manity upon the field and formed a
Whirlpool Rapids OF noise around the
players, KLEIN walked wearily away, per-
haps wondering that players have the
nerve TO criticise the eyeslght OF UNI
pireS.

ward varsity was given a comparative

drill-a seven-minute scrimmage with the
scrubs and a brief signal practice con-
stituting the afternoons work. Neither

Capt. Fisher was out of the lineup again
to-day. but probably will get into the
long scrimmage scheduled for tomorrow
in preparation for the Brown contest on
Saturday Huntington played full back,
and made a favorable showing. Hitch

NOTES OF THE GAME.

Marquard got two and three on Lord
for starter, and then Brls lined to De-
vOre, who turned complete somersault
after pulling down the drive.
Rube Oldring broke the first bat of the
series when he connected for one Of Mar
guards fast ones in the opener, and died
Doyle to >Merkle.
snodgrass got big hand from the New
York crowd when he came to bat for the
first time, but a slow roller, Baker to Da-
Wis, finished him.
How the crowd yelled when Baker made
his first appearance at the bat, and the
noise increased ten-fold when the famous
slugger struck out
Danny Murphys single in the Athletics
second inning was the first clean hit of
the game.
After striking out Murray and Merkle
Jack Coombs got himself into a hole,
and with two and three on Herzog, he
had to put the ball over, with the result
that Herzog raped out pretty single,
and followed this up by stealing second
but Fletcher famed for the third out.
Marquard had two strikes on Lapp in the
third, but the catcher connected for
fast inshoot, and dumped 1t safe into left
field.
Doyle made horrible error in the Ath-
letics' third, when Lapp was on first and
Coombs grounded to Herzog. The latter
made a perfect throw to second for a
double play, but Doyle dropped the ball.
When Rube OIdring pasted one into the
crowd for a homer in the third, the Quak-
er City rooters went crazy.
Harry Davis muffed a perfect throw
from Barry in the Giants third, when
Meyers was on first. This double play
was not needed, as Devore famed and
Meyers was caught a mile trying to steal
second.
Leon Ames looked like the million
dollar kid when he started the fourth by
retiring the side in one. two, three order.
Larry Dolve cracked one just inside
the right field foul line for two bases
as an opener of the Giants fourth. Snod-
grass and Murray both struck out and

Series
On the Hilltop
Georgetown Authorities Grant High School Board
Permission to Use Field Without Charge.
Business u.s. Central Tomorrow.
By c. w. SWAN.

All doubt as TO the fact that the inter-
scholastic football games are to be held
on Georgetown Field was dispelled last
night, when it was announced that per-
mission had been granted by the au-
thOrities at Georgetown to the high
school authorities to use the varsity
field on every Tuesday and Friday after
noon until the schedule of ten games
has been completed.
The week of November 13. which
is the one in which the Virginia game
takes place, will be devoted en-
tirely to secret practice and necessarily
the regular schedule of high school
games will have to be suspended. 1t is
very probable the games scheduled for
the week Of November l3 will be carried
over to the following week, and in this
way the entire series of ten games will
take place on Georgetown field.
In view Of the fact that GEORGETOWN
Field Is the only available incrosed spot
IN the District, the members of the ath-
letic council of the local high schools
are very grateful for the use of It and
appreciative of the kindly spirit of the
varsity men who are quitting their own
grounds to occupy the smaller prep field
In order that the varsity men NAV be
given an opportunity TO scrimmage on
evenings Of the high school games, the
school boys have been urged to be very
prompt in starting their games. so that
they may be over by 40 O'Clock
There is to be no fee whatever for the
rental of the field, Notwithstanding the
statement to that effect: but 1t is un-
derstOOd that the high school authorities
are to allow n small sum for services on
the field and for labor in preparing it
for the games and watchmen. II Is uni
versally conceded that the present lay
out Of the Georgetown Field makes it
the iGeal place for such games. and il
is the earnest wish of all parties inter
ested that the remaining contests be car
ried on as orderly as the last Tech East
ern game.
CampuzzI's shoulder continues to give
him trouble. 1t is only at a great ef-
fort that the game youngster can leave
his feet to block a man making inter-
ference.
Jimmy Fury, playing with the scrub
team, looks 100 per cent better than
when playing with the regulars, Realiz-
ing that the proper berth for AN ALI
Southern half back is not with a scrub
team, he puts his whole efforts into his
work with the result that his true worth
IS shown.
The work of painting the new stands
has already started, and when completed
each one of the reserved seats will be
stenCiled with its respective number.
The third game OF the scholastic foot
ball series will take place tomorrow on
Georgetown Field. with Business max
ing its first appearance in the series, and
Central opposing the Stenographers.
Business has no chance whatever Of
defeating the o Streeters, unless Central
shows great reversal OF form, and that
Is not likely. Central will run up about
35 points on the Stenographers, with
Business being lucky to score at all, al
though Derrick may be able to boot
one over the goal posts.

was added that no progress whatever had
