c. U. ON NORTHERN TRIP
By KIRK c. MILLER.

BESIDES two baseball games in the
Interscholastic League, and the regular
emateur baseball games, there is little
on the program in the way OF sports
for the present week in Washington.
However, interest will not be lax, for
Catholic University started on its trip
North and into New England TO play
several of the best college basch2ll
teams in that vicinity. and that team
is being watched closely by many Of
Waskington's fans.
The Brooklanders have a record on
the diamond that might well be the
envy Of any college team. Both at home
and abroad it has met with SUCCESS
more often than defeat, and its players
have demonstrated that they can play
consistent baseball right along. They
are taking no little pride in the fact
that they took a trip to Annapolis last
Saturday and laid the Midshipmen safe
away, and II is hoped out at Brook
land that that victory will be a nucleus
for success on the trip which begins TO-
day.
Coach Moran's crew is to play New
York University on Tuesday, Holy
Cross, Wednesday; Harvard, Thurs
day; Fordham, Friday, and the Army
team on Saturday. Those members Of
the team who were taken on the trip
are:
Capt. Mcdonnell. Greene, Donnelly,
Lynch, Horan, Zachary, Pipp. Tlayers.
Ryan, Carter. Hayes, Smith, Mcclure,
OConnor, and Coach Moran.
Western VS.. Central.
Western and Central High Schools
are scheduled to engage in the fifth
game Of the interscholastic baseball
series at National Park tomorrow.
Later in the week, on Friday after
noon, Technical and Eastern meet on
the same diamond.
Right at this very stage of the high
school series the race is assuming its
most interesting point One team, Teen.
nicai. is practically out of the running,
IL having dropped two games and failed
TO win a single one The other five
mines, however, may. by sensational
spurts in the case of Central. take the
lead and hold IL throughout the re-
mainder of the series.
At present Eastern has the attic posi-
tion with two games won and none lost.
Western has an equal percentage with
Eastern with one victory and no de-
feats. while Business is on the fence,
having won and lost one game. Should
Central drop tomorrows contest with
Western. the o Streeters will also be
out of the race, and the West Enders
will be on like footing with Eastern
in the race. The real race viii then be
between the last two named and the
Stenographers.
Was Poor Exhibition.
Business showing against Technical
last Friday was indeed nothing 10 be
proud of. Although they won the game
by Il 10 10, the game was filled with
playing of the Comanche Indian var
iety throughout Errors in the shape
OF poorly fielded balls and wild throws
were more conspicuous than playing of
the finer type.
1t is thought that Business is able to
put up more superior variety of game
and Il Will have a chance to prove this
next week. The Stenographers were
bluffed out OF their first game with
Eastern. 1t was merely matter of
wits. and the Capitol Hill diamond ar
lists proved superior.
The one other important sporting
event of the week will be GeorgetoWn's
dual meet with the Navy at Annarolis
next Saturday. Some disappointment Is
being expressed at the Hilltop as TO
Georgetown's prospects in these games
Its one best point winner has been
thrown out on account of tactics dis
played by him in Baltimore last week
Marshall Lowe. who should win TIE
high jump is not at his best form, and
Harry Weidman is said TO be unable
10 participate.
