Colts Field Perfectly.

The playing of the Colts was perfect
in the field and several of the plays
were sensational While they register
ed thirteen hits for total of nineteen
bases they surely would have done
better had they been able to reach the
ball AS an illustration, Shanhs was up
six times and walked four, his slam for
double in the eighth being beauty
The work of Turney Barber stood out,
he getting four safe ones out of six
turns two of them doubles, and ODon-
nell robbed him of another double when
he chased TO the fence in the eighth in
nins; and pulled down his terrific drive.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Y a.
March 25.-Nhen Clyde Milan

today against Virginia, dropped a
little fly ball which was hit to hin

way for a scare for the Gritfmen
Six hits followed this incident

varsity team scored five runs and

about ten minutes and was I'M

varsity did not get any more
runs. Incidentally. the Nationals
fell on Mccall for three runs in
the seventh inning and added an
other tally in the eighth, which
gave them sufficient margin to
make the victory possible, clean
hitting bringing home the runs.

fight entirely after the first
round. 1t was finished with
Moran's face smear OF blood,
while Willard was unmarked.
The fight put up by the cham
pion was far from impressive.
He displayed no more pugnacity
when Moran swung heavily upon
his head than he did when he was
training with his sparring part
ners. For the greater part OF the
time he was wearing a broad and
ponderouS grin. At the start
Willard seemed bit bewildered.
Moran by flashy rush swept the
big fellow into the ropes. Shortly
after the bell rang and the crowd
got its first thrill, but Willard
wrapped his long arms about the
body and Moran could not pene-
trate that shield OF muscle VIII
lard seemed even a tritle worried
as he went to his corner
But after that it became almost
monotonous. In the fourth
round Willard shot out his right
arm and his glove landed over
Moran's LETT eye. There was a
eush OF blood, and Moran went
to his corner hall blooded. In
the seventh round it seemed that
Willard would dispose of the
brave little lrish-American. He
Jared him with i terrific right
uppercut and began to batter him
all over the ring

The Nationals inner works were put

IN this morning for period of more
than thirty-five minutes They were
driven along at a fast pace by Griffith,
who tired himself out batting to them
The entire quartet were soaked to the

that they could hardly drag themselves
off the field. This was in addition to
having nine-inning game to pla v
with the Virginia nine, which, though
not quite so exerting, nevertheless
meant more work.

colossus grinned when the bell rang.

the advantage OF live inches OF reach

uppercut has been exaggerated. Though
several times he shot ii to Moran s
