Georgetown Preps
PLAY M. A. G. Reserves

The Georgetown Preparatory School
nine will play the Maryland Agricul-
tural College Reserves this afternoon
on the Hilltop diamond in the second
game of their schedule and judging
from the past performances Of both
aggregations, the battle should be
warmly contested.
The Aggie Reserves have been put
ting up a nice article OF ball since the
opening OF the season ana although
they have suffered defeat at the hands
OF one of the local high schools, they
are confident that with the lineup OF
the team slightly changed, they will be
able to hold the embryo collegians from
the Heights to a low score.
In yesterdays game with Jim Sprig-
mans charges the embryo collegians
suffered an attack OF stage fright and
gave one of the weirdest exhibitions of
fielding seen on the Hilltop In a long
time. For four innings they dropped or
booted everything that came in their
direction. Biddulph and Martin par
ticularly being unable TO handle their
chances, each fozzling about four times
The lineup for the Props today will
probably be Martin. ,shortstop; Nc
Carthy, leftfield or pitcher; Biddulph or
Drury. second base; Marum, catcher
Farrell first base; Fennell third base
Cusack, centerfield; Deutsler or Nord-
linger. rightfield; Corbett, pitcher or
leftfield.

Joe Wood of Boston.

Early this spring, in discussing slabmen, Russ Ford
named Joe Wood of Boston, Of the games great
est and a pitcher too much overlooked in summing
up the Main Guns of the firing line.
We agree with Ford. Among the first three slab
men Of 1912, Smokeball Joe will almost surely find
place Wood has lot, knows lot, and probably no
slabman in the game forms better fielding and batting
combination beyond the technical art of pushing the
pill the pam Woods fast ball has hop attached
which kangaroo would envy. His ball Is equally
potent his control is above par and but few huterng
duck fits beset him at work AS all around toer on

sity of Illinois students today took a
hand in the summer baseball game by
giving out a list of big Eight" play

Purdue, Chicago, and Wisconsin are
hit by the information, which was given
10 Prof. G. A. Goodenough, Illinois con-
ference representative, who will prob
ably tender 1t to the other schools.
Iowas declaration of a cleanup
was greeted enthusiastically, and the
students here don't care II they lost
every man on their own team II they
show the absurdity of the rule. Today's
revelations are:

lyn pvened up matters with New York
yesterday, winning to q mainly on
the poor work of Shafer at short. He
had three fielding chances and fooled
them all. The bungling offset Tesreau's
good pitching, the youngster allowing
only three hits. Kuetzer pitched well
up to the seventh. when two passes and
a single filed the bases. He gave
way to Schardt, who blanked the side,
ard then struck out three men in the

pitched good enough ball to win, but

The Nationals showed plenty OF spirit
at every stage OF the game ana Her
