The local college base ball teams are

georgetown has the most difficult list
of contests to play. The Blue and Gray
Is scheduled to meet four teams and at
least three of them are certain to prove
strong opponents
Tomorrow the Lebanon Valley nine is
to appear here. 1t may have almost any
KIND OF team. There is the chance
that II VIII be represented by an agsre-
CATION OF players that would give any
college nine close rub for victory and
then again 1t may not have better than a
thlrd-rate organization. Wednesday the

Saturday it will go to Hartford TO
measure strength with the Trinity Col
iese. II Georgetown wins any of the
iaSt three games it will be only after
IT has put up as good or a better article
OF ball than it has so far shown.
Cathollc University will play three
games. The first is booked with the
University of South Carolina tomorrow
Ii is hard to tell just what kind of
a team that it will be, since it has
played here only at infrequent inter
walls, and the strength OF college teams
is seldom the same two years in sue
cess1on. The only comparison that can
be had this spring is the fact that
Lafayette won from the CaroliLans, and
Catholic University beat Lafayette
easily While, of course comparative
scores are not Indicative OF real strength
This instances, at least shows that the
Catholic University nine is not inferior
in strength to what the visiting club Will
be. Thursday the \ and NJ. nine will
appear here 1t should prove q real
opponent The Trinity College nine of
North Carolina is booked to play Satur-
day, and, Judging by the scores it has
been making against other teams. it Is
one of the strongest organizations in
the south 1t has played more con-
sistent ball than any other nine, with
the exception of Catholic University it
self.
The Maryland Agricultural College and
GaIlauOet are ScneQuiell 10 meet w Su-
nesday. The Gallaudet nine will go to
College Park for the game. 1t IS the
contest which was to have been played
last Saturday a week ago, but which was
postponed on account of rain. The Ken
dali Greeners have been making an ex-
cellent showing, and the Farmers have
not been doing poor work by any means
The contest should be we'll played, with
the odds somewhere about even. One
other important affair in which the NJ.
A c. nine is to figure is game with
st. Johns That the Farmers are going
up against a tough proposition is certain
from the fact that the Annapolis team
got away with Naval Academy by a
score of ; to q Saturday. The game is
scheduled to take place Friday in An
napolis. but an effort Is being made to
have the contest transferred to College
Park because of the state intercollegiate
oratorical contest which is to be held at
NJ. A. G.. that night.
Besides the games In which the col
lege teams will figure there is rather
