Georgetown showed something of tn,
form that has characterized teams thai
have represented it in the past when il
| Won from the North Carolina Agricul-
! tural and Mechanical College YESTERDAY
| oy ) to :. The Blue and Gray played
| better ball game than 1t has in a long
While, and its work was a credit to the
best of the mines that have worn the
| hilltop colors
For the first time in long while the
Blue and Gray men played in a dashins
style. which gave them the advantage in
every department. over a team that is in
their class. They outhit the men from
Carolina and also tielded a better game
The pitching done by the local hurlers
was superior to that of the southerners
and more base ball was generally shown
by the local aggregation A summa ton
OF the game shows Georgetown to have
mad only one error, with four for North
Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical
college Georgetown got eleven hits
"hiie the opposing men could connect
with the delivery of Fienle for only
seven The same number of assists were
secured by both teams.
II was Georgetowns game deservedly
because 1t put up the better article of
pail. 1t was steadier and played, from
general standpoint, more capably
1t was peculiar game for Georgetown
| to win when it is considered how the
runs were scored. The Blue and Gray
had blanked A. and NJ until the first
haff of the ninth, and it had been able
to secure but one run itself A. and NJ
went to the bat and tailed twice in the
hrst half of the last period. Runs had
been SO scarce 1t looked as though that
one-run margin would be sufficient for
the Southerners to win. Such was not
! the case. because the Blue and Gray
opened up in its half and managed to get
two more across giving ii the victory by
) TO -.
Page. who played third base for the
A. and NJ nine. is local boy He has
| taken part in amateur ball in this city,
and year before last was member of
the Kendall nine in the Independence

and NJ. last year. but this season is hold
ing down third base.
y summary of Pages work yesterday
gives him one hit, an OFT. two assists and
no errors.
The Army and Swarthmore engaged in a
game that was about as queer a turn
ABOUT as far as the score is concerned as
one world care to see. Swarthmore got
eighteen hits to the Army's eight it
made less errors in the field, and Yet
the Army won by a score of 10 to o. The
game must have been more or less of
travesty, college team generally max
ing nearer twenty runs than nine on that
number of safeties.
The Navy started winning again yes
terday. securing a victory over the Dick
lBson College nine by. score of ) to f.
long home-run drive. by Hall. the Sail
ors first baseman, scoring a man in

game YESTERDAY against the Episcopal
