BY SENATOR"

Cashion, more or less peeved at his
balloon ascension the other day, came
down to earth against Catholic Uni
versity, and for five innings refused to
allow them to get even the semblanCe
of a hit The Carolina curVer was
there with bells on and caused Manager
Griffith and the small handful OF fans
present to grin with pleasure. Oh, the
score? The Nationals copped, TO Q.
Jerry Akers made his bow before a
home audience yesterday and, while the
collegians broke into the hit column on
his appearance, he twirled evenly and
was never in danger. He made rather
favorable impression upon those pres
ent by his work.
The Nationals grabbed one run in the
opening session when. with two out OF
the way, Moeller walked. He threw
placing him and gailoping around the
red light corner and home to mother
when Flynn bounced a razzledazzle
drive off Horan's glove into the left
pasture.
Greene Forces a Run.
Again there came a run in the third.
Schaefer, who had no weaknesses at
the plate against the Indian performer,
cracked one that "Skeets' Hayes
couldn't get in time and then pilfered
sane heaVe to center field Snanks
walked and stole gracefully and Greene
obligingly passed Flynn, filling the cor
ners. Cunningham also waited for his
Greene tossed out Mcbride and the
dozen or more rah rahs back of third
cheered their varsity captain rah, rah,
rah, several times. Those rooters GER
their cheers, no matter how gloomy it
looked.
Cunningham opened the sixth with a
rousing drive to left and went to third
him. Mcbride perlshed and Foster
boosted to Zachary, earning a life when
the collegian dropped the ball, Cum
ningham scOOting home on the misplay
The seventh saw another tally for the
Nationals. Schaefer crashed a two-spot
to left and scored on knights timely
single to left.
Mcbride Makes a Triple.
Three fine runs were counted in the
eighth when Greene became a little more
vulnerable than at any time before.
Mcbride bounced a triple down along
the left field foul line and Foster
brought him in with safe drive to
| but Greene waVered and walked Milan.
This was candy for Schaefer, who
cracked another double. this one going
to center field and scoring Foster,
Milan hustled around and also counted
while the Red and Black boys were
throwing the pill around and around
and around. Shanks ended the amuse-
| ment with a sailer to Lynch
| Lynch saluted Akers in the sixth with
solid single to center, but he could
move no farther. Mcdonnell got a
safety past Foster, bounding it or the
midRets left shin, in the seventh, but
he was spiked in a rapid double play
a moment later. Balm doubled I'm the
eighth and stuck there. Not till the
ninth did c. L. get man as far as
third. Dutch" Hessler slammed a
wo-bagger TO right and reached the
| red light district while Cunningham
was getting Widmyer. Henry sprinted
and got under McDonnelTs little foul
! hy. choking OFF Hessler from getting a
possible whitewash-killer.
