Georgetown Plays Brilliant
Iy Against Cornell Nine.
BLUE AND GRAY WINS
BY SCORE OF 8 TO 3
FienIe Pitches Clever Ball and
Whole Team Shows Much
Improved Form.

The most interesting game of base
ball that has been played on the
Georgetown Field this year was won
by Georgetown from Cornell by q score
OF 8 to yesterday. Everything that
goes TO make up the game Of base ball
was shown by both teams, and the
small group OF fans who gathered to
witness the contest were we'll salts
fed with the exhibition. Sensational
neiolng, clever baserunning and hard
hitting kept the spectators on edge
during the whole nine innings.
AS usual Georgetown presented
new face in its lineup. The new
mans name is Hennessy. With but
four days workout Coach Harley
thought SO well of his showing that
he used him at the midway station
yesterday. 1t can be said Of him that
he Is one of the cleverest and headiest
ball players that have been seen on
the hilltop this year., His blocking of
runners at second and his hitting
greatly aided the local team. In the
field he went after everything that
came anywhere near him, and Coach
Harley was delighted over his show
ing.
Coach Sharpe of the Cornell team
presented formidable aggregation,
and 1t was the best team that has
played on the hilltop field this year,
with the possible exception of Yale.
Despite the fact that six errors were
chalked up against the New York
team. still this does not by any means
indicate the caliber of ball played by
Cornell. Every man on the team dis
played ability and activeness.
Inc Georgetown players looked like
re1uvenated bunch. Hennessy at
second seemed to be the man that was
needed. The spirit among the players
was better than any previous con-
test The men seemed to work bet
ter together and much sought for
team work was in order yesterday.
Davis at third base gave a clever ex-
h1bit1on. accepting seven chances and
making three clean hits. The chances
that came his way were difficult. but
the clever third baseman covered
himself with glory. Mccarthy in CEN
ter field made a brilliant catch of a
low drive over second base that
brought about much applause. This
one of the most capable players on
the team.
Jones opened the game by grounding
to Davis. who easily threw out this
SPECIFY second DdSemdn. with both
Chute and keeler hit safely the George
town enthusiasts began to believe that
Cornell would score, and when Ffenle
passed Butler, filing the bases, it seemed
certain that the New Workers would be
able to push a run across the pan Fienle
at this period settled down and famed
Gaber. Lane went out on a slow ground
er to Mulcahy. This was working out of
big hole, and Fienle deserved a good
deal of praise. In Georgetown's half Of
the first one run was scored Hollander
led off with a pass. He was caught fat
footed off first base but while being run
down he reached second base on Chute's S
wild throw, and on a short passed ball he
reached third, scoring on McCarthy's in
field out.
Fienle was wild throughout the game,
hitting Adair and Butler and passing
Chute, and kept getting himself in the
hole. At the beginning of the second he
hit Adair. but the next three men went
out in one, two, three order. Georgetown
failed to score In it's turn at the bat In
this inning. although men were on second
and third bases with but one out.
Cornell had a chance to get run in the
third, but on foolish baserunning threw
away the opportunity. Georgetown in
it's half Of this inning pushed a run
