POINTS IN LAST PERIOD
Brooklanders Get Two Touchdowns
in Final Quarter, After Wearing
Down Opponents.

Catholic University wore down the
stubborn defense of the lighter Mary
land Agricultural College eleven after
three periods of desperate play and
won its opening game yesterday by a
score of 16 to 0. A safety in the last
minute of the third quarter and two
touchdowns in the final period consti-
tuted the scoring.
The work of the two teams was
about as desperate as was ever seen in
an early season contest The Brook
landers were struggling to make good
the claims of their supporters and the
Farmers fighting to prevent defeat at
the hands of much heavier and more
experienced combination. 1t looked as

er goal was in danger Until the Aggies

tumble. though, broke up its chance
for a score, and little later came the
turning point of the contest. C. U.
kicked from the middle of the field
after being held for downs and the
ball was dropping close to the Farm
ers' goal line. Instead of allowing the
ball to cross an M. A. C. player caught
1t and attempted to- run it back. He
was downed on his own goal line and
the officials declared that safety had
been made. The ball was brought out
and put in play on the 20-yard line. A
punt was attempted and blocked. c. u.

few yards from the goal line. From
that point Frank Rodgers carried it
over by some brilliant dashes through
the line and off tackle. The same play
er made another touchdown few mo-
ments later after a long run.
The Catholic University eleven is just
what has been claimed for it-fast,
heavy. experienced and well coached.
1t Is not likely to lose single contest
to secondary school and probably will
run up some big scores before the end
of the year. 1t wore down the lighter
NJ. A. c. team yesterday after three
full-time periods by sheer strength.
Rodgers is as good a back as there is
in the south, while Jack Butler and Bill
Butler are stars. too. Greer and MUIR
ply make great defensive pair to
back up the line.

ertng first base. Hoblftzell was saved
about three errors today. He fumbled
the first ball that was hit to him in
the opening inning. when Paskert met
one for fair, but the ball was picked up
by Barry and he had but to throw to
Foster on the bag to retire Paskert. On
two other occasions Hoblitzell fum-
bled hard hits. but Foster was always
on the bag. and Hobby could recover
the ball and get 1t to Foster in plenty
OF time to get his man. There were
three occasions when Foster covered
the bag. which gives him the unusual
record for pitcher of having three
put-outs and no assists.
Henriksen did not prove the danger

has been against other pitchers. for
with the bases filled in the seventh he
batted for Scott and popped I'D to
Luderus for the third out. Mayer is a
pitcher must after the order of DOC"
Ayers. He. pitches his most effective
balls underhand. and this helps his ef-
fectiveness more than a little, He
pitched splendid ball in the pinches,
but he did not have George Foster
sized up right. and to this he owes his
defeat.
Moran had both Mayer and Chalmers
warm up, but he evidently did not like
the STUFF that Chalmers was showing.
for he picked Mayer, and he made no
mistake, for with any sort of luck
Mayer would have won his game.
Foster seemed to weaken In the
fourth inning, and good support alone
saved him from being in serious trou-
BILE in this round. Stock, the first man
to face him, drove low liner to left

who fumbled. but Foster was there to

Blue and Gray Backs Find 0ppos-
ing Defense Easy to
Penetrate.

The fast Georgetown backs swept at
will through the line and around the
ends Of the Reina Mercedes eleven on
the Hilltop yesterday and piled up a
total of So points, while the tars went
scoreless. The Blue and Gray line re-
peatedly tore big holes in their oppo-
nents' defense and the ends were con-
sistently boxed in when plays were
directed along the wings. The most
important factor In the Hilltoppers' Of
Tense was the magnificent interference
provided by the backs and ends.
The team worked with the precision
of a machine and during the first quar-
ter scored 10 points in easy fashion.
Two minutes after the kick off McNa-
mara took the ball on a punt formation
and skirted left end for so yards and IL
touchdown. Barron missed an easy
kick and then Georgetown resumed
her march to the goal line for another
score. Gilroy provided some of the
best broken-neld running seen on the
local gridiron in years. squirming for
twenty and thirty yards at time
through the Sailors defense.
The game furnished Coach Exendine
with an opportunity to try out some Of
his second string men. Some Of the
subs. notably Supplee and Smith, ap-
peared to good advantage. Both men
are backs and proved to be adopts in
making long gains around the tanks.

Game of World Series
Tomorrow.

PHILADELPHIA, October 9.
The breaks of the game, those
tickle favors of fortune that
sway the pendulum of fate,
smiled upon Boston today, and
tonight the red hosed champions
of the American League and the
Philadelphia pennant bearers of
the National circuit were on their
way to Boston, with the honors
of the 1915 world series all at
even, the Sox having won the
second game of the series, 2 to l.
President Woodrow Wilson and
his fiance, Mrs. Norman Gait,
shared the honors of the second
contest with stoutly built young
Boston pitcher known to base
ball fame as George Foster
Foster may never go down in
history as an Alexander, a Wal
ter Johnson or Christy Mathew
son, but when the story of the
second battle of the current series
is filed away in the archives of
the national pastime it will be
found that all he did today was
to hold the fighting Phillies to
three base hits, to strike out
eight of their best wielders of the
willow, to make as many hits
himself as he allowed the entire
opposition, including a sizzling
smash IN. the ninth that sent
Gardner across the plate with the
winning Boston run. In addition
to these few meager activities in
the box young Foster sped to
first base a couple of times and
took throws from his fellow
felders that turned two seeming
errors into sensational outs.
President Shares Honors.
Mr.. Foster on the field and Mr.. WILL
son in the stand were indeed the heroes
Of the day. Foster won by to 1. The
President had a wider margin, for the
more than 10000 base ball enthusiasts
crowded in the friendly little Philly
park were on their feet for and with
Mr.. Wilson time after TINA They
greeted him with cheers when he came
and forgot the sting of defeat to send
him on his way to Washington with
shouts that echoed for blocks around.
Mrs. Gait was greatly admired by the
base ball throngs and was smilingly
happy over the attentions showered
upon her.
The President rooted royalty for the
home team. When the signal for ''all
up" came In the supposedly mystic
the first on his feet. But when the
tumult and the shouting died, the
Philly cause had not been bettered.
for Foster in this frame turned back
the first three men to face him. In the
last half of the ninth. when the Phil
lies plight was desperate. a band in
the grandstand began to play The
Star Spangled Banner" Mr.. Wilson
caught the Oh the ndf

feet, followed by the entire crowd.
