AGG|ES TO HAVE
HARD SCHEDULE
Base Ball Team to Play Most
Difficult Games It Has
Ever Attempted.

TO PLAY L0YOLA FIVE

Baltimore School in That

BY 81. C.. BYRD.

The Maryland Aggie are arranging the
heaviest base ball schedule they have
ever attempted. In former years very
lew big teams have been played, and
such games have been the exception. This
season just the opposite will be the case,
and the contests with small schools will
be the exception instead.
Practically all the large institutions in
this section will be met Games have
already been arranged with several, and
negotiations are under way by which it
is hoped to close with others. Besides
the best mines in this section. some strong
northern schools will be played. Dickin-
son, Swarthmore. Lehigh and Rutgers
have been closed with. and there are
other schools with which negotiations are
being carried on, almost surely to a sue
cessful conclusion.
This is the first instance i'm which the
Farmers have branched out to such an
extent, and whether or not 1T will be a
success is a question. Anyway, it is the
intention to play such teams in order to
improve what has heretofore been rather
a mediocre list of contests.
Arrangements are being made whereby
it is probable that contest with Lafay-
cite will take place. If the game is finally
arranged it may find two former West
ern High pitchers working against each
other. Holden Is certain to be on the
pitching staff at Lafayette, and LOOMS
is as sure to hold down a like job at
M. A. c.
The Western High basket ball team
lost Yesterday to the Gallaudet five by a
one-sided score. The high school lads
did not stand a chance to finish in front
at any stage of the game, and there We're
times when they could make absolutely
no Roadway against the Kendall Green
men. Outweighed considerably and
against men of much greater experience,
the hign school boys could hardly be ex-
pected to accomplish much. though Gal
laudet has team of veteran players and
with two exceptions Western has bunch
of inexperienced boys. The whole West
ern five is very much inexperienced in
fact. when compared with the Gallaudet
bunch.
The Gallaudet quint will leave this even
ing to meet the Loyola College team in
Baltimore. The Loyola aggregation is a
fast one and. despite their overwhelming
victory of yesterday, the Buff and B ue
players realize that they must play ex-
ceptional ball to win. Loyola has one of
the best fives in Maryland, and it is re-
ported IL STANDS IdlF Chance 10 capture
the intercollegiate championship of the
state.
Two of Georgetown's track men will
compete tonight in the junior champion
ships of the Amateur Athletic Union in
New York. They are Eller and Gallagher
The former will run in the hurdle events.
while the latter will meet some of the
best men in the country in the middle
distance runs.
Both men should show well. Eller has
won one hurdle race this season against
the New York cracks, and Gallagher has
many times proved himself an exceptional
distance performer. Whether or not the
distances Gallagher will run are too short
for him will tell somewhat on what he
accomplishes Under any circumstances
Eller ought to be we'll up with the leaders
in his race, and at least place.
1t would not be any surprise to have
both Gallagher and Eller win in an event
each, although 1t is probable that the dis
lance is little short for Gallagher to
show at his best.
