The Monumental city team was accom-

every available point OF observation was
occupied by local fans. AS was to be ex-
pected, the Nationals second baseman
was the center OF attraction, and he lived
up to his reputation hustler by his
snappy work on the alleys which won
for him unlimited applause. In the last
box of the first game he counted a strike
on a spare. netting him his first hundred

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, January IL.
Virginia opened her basket ball season
this evening by decisively defeating Cal
laudet, 40 to 10. The visitors played a
plucky and aggressive game through
out but were forced to bow to the SUI
perior all-around play of their oppo-
nents. In the latter part of the contest
Pop Lannigan had placed an entirely
new quint on the floor. who continued
the liberal scoring started by the varsity
five.
Gallaudet was completely lost in the
first half. and Virginia led at the end
Is to 1. Rixey, Virginia's tall center,
easily was the star on the offense, throw
ing four goals in the first half and fol-
lowing the ball we'll at all times.
Around him the Virginia plays We're
centered and he very rarely fell down.
Maiden, the big foot ball tackle, who
has a big reputation as d basket bail
player. played a forward during the early
period He is still battered by a bad
knee and showed lack of practice. His
passing was clean, however and marks
him as a player who will be of great aid
when he gets going. Capt. Churchman
was a tower of strength as a guard.
For Gallaudet, BattiSte was most ag-
gressive. He Is out Of condition at pres
ent and participated but a short time in
the second period. Capt. DURAN played
a nice game. During the intermission
DieboN and Jones of Virginia wrestled
to a draw, each procuring one fall.
