COACH HARLEY IS
PLEASED WITH WORK
Thinks Georgetown Nine Will
Be Winner for Remainder
of Year.

Coach Harley of the GEORGETOWN base
ball team is very much pleased with the
showing made by the nine during the
past week 1t is certain that, George
town has the material for a good team
on hand, but the lack of team work early
in the season handicapped the develop
ment. Now that the team has had a
very successful week it is predicted that
from now on that. they will get away
with the majority of the remaining
games.
Georgetown's pitchers are now pitching
a fine article of ball. 1t was demonstrated
to Coach Harley that Chris Ffenle car
only be pitched once week If allowed
to work any sooner than one weeks rest
he is not capable Of pitching his best
game. When the coach discovered this
fact he decided to give Fienle one week
of rest before entering the box. Last
Saturday when he pitched against Cor
nell he had not thrown ball with any
great speed since he faced Annapolis one
week before. 1t is needless to remark
of F1enle's performance in this game, be-
cause he easily won his game from Cor
nell. The development of Young Nc
Carthy is a pleasing thing to the follow
ers of the base ball team at the hilltop.
Mccarthy did not do any great amount
Of pitching for the prep school team last
year. and it was not expected that he
would become such valuable twirler.
Tom Cantwell. a former Georgetowr
star, and now a league pitcher took a
great deal of interest in Mccarthy while
coaching the pitchers at Georgetown last
week. Cantwell claims that Mccarthy
has great deal of ability, and should
be star finger with little more eX-
perience. Coach Harley intends to use
Mccarthy in some of the important
games which are soon to be played
Kelley is a valuable pitcher, as his per-
formances SO far this year have been
very good. Fienle. who pitched yesterday,
was by no means supported properly, and
that lis why the game was lost by such a
large score.
1t is too bad that Hennessy is lost to the
team. He Is wonderful base ball play
er. and was badly needed. He was not
allowed to participate in the game yes
terday.
Capt. Fury played right field. and will
most likely play in all the remaining
games. Fury injured his arm in the first
Princeton game. and it has not been right
since. but he was used in the Cornell
game Monday. and on account Of his
valuable hitting he was assigned to play
right field yesterday, and will play in
this position during the rest of the season.
Meehan was tried out in left field by
Coach Harley yesterday. and while he
was not able to connect with the ball to
any advantage it Is thought that he may
be given forther opportunity to make
good in this position.
The report that Billy Martin will join
the Erie club of the Central League after
he ends bis school year is not true. Mar
tin. it is true. has a contract with the
Erie team calling for $50 a month.
He is a fine player. but has not been
used to any great extent at Georgetown.
He will not by any means join the Erie
team, as he has three more years to
spend in college. and if he signed up with
the Erie team he would not be able to
represent the school in any sport. Martin
should not have any trouble making the
Georgetown foot ball team next fall, as
he is a clever gridiron performer.
Just who will pitch against Gallaudet
this afternoon is not known, but it is be-
lieved that Lynch will be in the box. He
is in very good shape. Davis. the third
baseman, has a very sore arm. and may
be given rest today. His arm has been
very sore all year, and since the be-
ginning of the season he has thrown with
great difficulty. 1t may be that Cam
pazzi will be used at third base today.
as this is his regular position. A young
man who has shown great promise be-
hind the bat is Frank Mulcahy. He
caught for a short time yesterday, and
has a wonderful throwing arm. He will
more than likely be used in today's game,
as the coach wishes to get a better line
on him.
