TRAVIS AND PERRIN
TIED IN GOLF AT. 70
Only Eighteen Holes Played in
Lakewood Qualifying Round
on Account Of Rain.

NEW YORK, April ia tie for the
medal marked the opening of the golf
tournament at the Country Club of Lake.
wood yesterday. When all the cards had
been handed In Walter J. Travis of Gar
den City and Howard W. Perrin of Phil
adelphis were both credited with scores
OF 20. 1t originally had been intended
to have thirty-six hole Qualifying round,
but the storm of the afternoon caused
the committee to call the second round
off. This met with the approval Of
majority of the players, who did not
relish getting soaked for the second time.
Out Of an original entry of ITO, there
were Lightweight starters. One Of the
upsets of the day was the failure of G. c.
Stanley. the Yale golfer who won the
intercollegiate title last fall, to qualify.
The wet conditions combined with a gem
eral run Of hard luck kept him in almost
constant difficulty with the result that
he needed 100 strokes to make the round.
That sent him down to the fourth six
teen.
w. w. Taylor. the Ardsley and Elk
wanok golfer, who won the Lakewood
tourney last fall. had a narrow
squeak, tieing with Thomas senseman
and w. K. Gillett for last place in the
first set. All had scores Of So. On
the draw Taylor was fortunate to win,
the other two dropping into the second
set.
In conjunction with the qualifying

GEORGETOWN TOP[AY
HOPKINS TOMORROW
Baltimore School Will Oppose
Blue and Gray Nine
on Hilltop.

Tomorrow afternoon on the Hilltop the
Georgetown University base ball team
will line up against the nine represent
ing Johns Hopkins In what should be a
very closely contested battle throughout
The boys from Baltimore have made
great strides in improving their team
since they were last seen in action against
the Catholic University on q date which
proved to be too early in the season for
them to show their real form. There have
been several shifts made in the lineup
of the team representing Hopkins during
the last week. and from the reports that
have been received they have In every
instance materially strengthened the
team.
The coach OF the Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity team announced that he had slated
Capt. PEPPER to work on the mound
against GEORGETOWN tomorrow afternoon,
and, should the leader show up to his real
form. the Blue and Gray batsmen will in
all proba bility have considerable difficulty
In connecting with the sphere for safe
bingles. PEPPERS work against Prince
ton when the Orange and Black played
Hopkins while the former were on their
southern trip. succeeded In holding lis
rivals down to a small batting percentage
and kept the sons Of Old Nassau on the
jump throughout the game in order to
get the decision. Should the leader OF the
baltimore institution prove as effective
against the Hilitoppers in the game to-
morrow afternoon as he has been against
the other teams that he has faced this
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1912-04-19
BY II. G. BYRD.

Judging by the work that has been done
during the season now being played. there
is every reason to believe that George
town has as good pitching staff as any
other college team in the east. The men
who have been doing the box work for
the Blue and Gray nine have not suffered
in comparison with any Of those against
whom they have been pitted, notwith-
standing the fact that they have pitched
against three Of the most prominent in
stitutions in the country. Princeton. Har-
ward and Yale.
Georgetown has one advantage over the
other teams it has faced in so far as it's
pitching staff is concerned. The Blue
and Gray has a good ieft-handed finger
who is able to step in and take his reg
ular turn with the right-handers. That is
something few college teams have. A de-
pendable left-handed pitcher. in company
with two or three right-handers, all of
whom are capable Of pitching good ball,
is something that is seldom seen on a
college nine. and yet 1t is the case at
Georgetown.
The pitching in almost every game that
has been played at Georgetown this year
has been uniformly good. There has
been but one instance of twirler being
hit hard enough to drive him from the
box. OConnor failed to hold Fordham
in the game in which he started against
that school. but. barring that, it Is ques-
tiQnable II the Blue and Gray has played
q game in which 1t has not hit the ball
as hard as the opposing nine.
To find better all-round aggregation
OF pitchers on any college team than
that which bears the brunt OF the play for
Georgetown would be q dincult task and
possibly an impossible one.
Eastern and Western will open the
high school series this afternoon. :. It Is
impossible to predict which team will
win. The general opinion has wavered
at times to favor each Of the two teams.
but they are probably fairly closely
matched and either may win, although
the odds should lie with the Red and
White.
The quality of the pitching will be the
factor which will probably determine
the result OF the contest II the pitchers
Of one team outclass those of the other
to any decided extent it is q fairly good
bet that that will be the successful one.

sport, and it is not probable that the
record will be broken today, although
1t is possible. The Aggies have been de-
cidedly weakened during the past month
by the loss of two OF their most valuable
regulars. Dom, who has been doing the
leaving school, and possibly may not be
in the game against the Blue and Gray
this afternoon, while Shipley, who was
probably the best man on the team, left
after the first game.
Georgetown will pitch OConnor or Hef-

Hunsch played second base for the Uni
