the Georgetown Props being the team
which is scheduled.
The track meet that is to he held by
the Maryland Aggies will have one of the
largest representations from the county
schools that has ever been drawn to an
athletic event from that class of insti-
tutions. more than dozen schools hav-
ing already signified their intentions to be
present when the meet IS held and each
will be represented by at least eight men,
according to the advance reports they
have sent out.
The following are some of the schools
that will have teams i'll competition:
Berlin High School, Denton High School,
salisbury High School, Maryland School
for the Deaf. Jarrettsville High School,
the two agricultural high schools and
several others.
Besides the county schools practically
every one of the local institutions have
promised to send their full squads. Word
has been received by the college officials
from Principal Wilson of the Central
that the entire squad from the Blue and
White school Will take part in the games.
From the other schools has come the
information from authoritative sources to
the same effect
Relay races lave been arranged for
the Boy Scouts. They will contest in
three classes-sO and 100 pounds and a
free-for-all. The scout commissioner of
.e,t,s,
municated with and he has stated that
he thinks at least thirty teams will be
represented in those three events from
this city. 1t was Mir. Martins expressed
desire to have his men engage in special
races against teams from Baltimore. and
some such arrangements will probably
be effected.
The fact that the Georgetown props
beat Business High by such an over
whelming score yesterday is proof posi-
tive that the Blue and Gray youngsters
are going to have one of the best scho-
iastic mines in the District There are
few scholastic teams able to tally as
many runs against another in the same
class as did the props against Business.
1t is also said that the props have a
twirler who is bound to prove the I'M
doing of other teams in the city. The
youngster has made such a reputation in
the few days he has been out to practice
that it is confidently stated by some that
| he could make a regular job on the var
sity We're he in college That is probably
a little overdrawh, but it stands to rea-
son that Corbit, which is the name of
the phenom, Will hold his own against
any scholastic nine against which he ap-
pears. if he is half as good as he is re-
ported to be.
Gallaudet held the Mount st. Joseph S
team TO just as close score as could
be expected in its game with that school
yesterday. The Kendall Greeners could
| hardly be expected to win when they
were up against an experienced bunch OF
| ball players, and their own men were
| in very poor condition.
Catholic University did just what was
predicted in its game with Johns Hop
/ kins. The Brooklanders completely out
classed the Baltimore aggregation in ey-
| cry department of the game. There was
/ little comparison between the two mines
in any branch of play. AS hitters the
/ Black and Red far overshadowed its RI
/ walls, and the pitching which the Brook
/ landers played behind was exceptionally
| superior to that behind which the Hop
| kins players had to struggle along. Also
| in tielding there was a markedly inferior
style of play on the part of the Hopkins
! nine.
| There are many who are competent
| judges OF base ball players and teams
| who think that Georgetown has q mighty
good ball club and that it will be the
| equal OF the ma jority of the other bic
| college mines. That the Blue and Gray
| was abe to score more runs against the
| Navy than has any team the Sailors
have played this year shows that there
is powerful offensive nine the hilltop
as compared to college teams in gen
eral.
The National Athletic Club, which will
be in the Independence League thi
season, will play an exhibition game thi:
afternoon against the Northern Athletic
Club. The Nationals will have their full
strength in the field and are expecting Il
win by a fair margin. The Loffier team
another of the independence Leagu,
clubs. defeated the same aggregation by
of the National club desires to win by
larger tally if possible.
The Nationals are scheduling games
with all the local scholastic mines ant
independent teams. 1t is expected t.
thus get the club in fine condition to play
by the opening of the regular league sea
son.

tional club Easter Monday, the pro
ceeds of which are to be devoted to fl
nancing the nine during the season.
