battle here today, to ..
Blodgett. who blanked the University
of Pennsylvania a week ago, was on
the mound for the Middies and was in
vincible. allowing the visitors only
three hits. At no time did the north
erners really look dangerous. and be-
sides Blodgett was given splendid sup
port by his teammates. GoodridEe,
who appeared here last year, twirled
a good game. but he was just bit un-
steady in the sixth stanza, when the
Middies registered their single tally.
McFall. first man up in that inning
hit safely and advanced to second on a
passed ball. Moran drew a base. On
an attempted double steal McFall was
tagged at third. Moran being safe al

VIRGINIA TUNING UP
FOR SOUTHERN MEET
Pop Lanigan Getting His Charges
Ready to Retain Cinder
Supremacy.

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, April l.
| Having tucked away the South At
lantic track title in the winter indoor
| meets, Pop Lannigan has started a
vigorous campaign to repeat in the
big southern intercollegiate, which
will be held on Lambeth Field Nav j
and 6. The virginians have success
| fully maintained their cinder suprem-
acy in this event for several years
and are adverse to the idea Of drop

has arranged two dual meets for the
Virginians preceding the southern
cinder classic. The first meet is
April %. at Annapolis with the Mid
shipmen, followed close on the 26th
with meet against the Pennsylvania
State track men. Following the in
tercollegiate the Virginians have a
dual meet with the Tigers at Prince
ton. These four meets will compose
the Virginia track schedule. At
present it is doubtful If Pop Lanni-
gan will send any of the Virginians to
compete In the Penn relays, April %
Coach LAnnigan and Capt. Norris
have been busy with large squad
numbering nearly fifty, for the past
week or more. and it is from these
that they hope to turn out a winning
team. They have as a working nu-
cleus the indoor team. which had a
brilliant season. There are about ten
| men on this squad who have come
through with points against keen COM
petition. and these can be relied upon.
Three Point Winners Lost.
! Three very valuable point winners of
the indoor team are not available,
however. for the outdooE>work Berk-
| eley's services are needed on the base
ball team. and consequently a good
sprinter and relay man is lost. Mason 8
heavy law work for his degree has
forced him to retire from the cinders.
He was the veteran OF the team and
was an invaluable man in the middle
Mayer recently Joined the ranks of
the benedicts and resigned from COL
lege. Mayer was sure point man in
the weights and a fair broad jumper.
Capt Cronly, record-holding hurdler;
| HARRISON. also point man in this
event; Gooch. broad jumper. and
Walker, pole vaulter, failed to return
to college this year. Gooch and
Walker will be especially missed
There are several who look fairly
good ana may develop later IN the
season under Pop Lannigan's care.
There is every indication that Capt
Norris will lead a well rounded team
which will give a fight in every event
during the strenuous season ahead
Last years team was one of the best
in Virginia track history. breaking
eight Virginia records, ave of which
also smashed South Atlantic marks
1t would be going too far to predict a
repetition of t.is. but the chances for
good year the cfnders for the
Virginians are good.

The tennis committee Of the Columbia
Country Club, headed by Chairman

pected to be battle worth witnessing,
as the star players of each organization
will surely take part.
Then comes the big Middle Atlantic
tournament May 81. and with it the
southern championship play in the doubles
to obtain pairs entitled to take part in
the national event in New York. This is
the first time the doubles have been
awarded to the District, and Chairman
Leech is entitled to all the credit for
obtaining the event. as he has been a
persistent worker to this end for the last
half dozen years. All the tennis stars

NEW YORK. April LIN his instruc-
tions to official scorers this season John
Heydler. secretary Of the Nattona
League, will rule that where an error
intervenes between two outs there IL ne
double play. as continuity Of play is
broken. For example. there are men on
first and third with none out. The
shortstop catches a liner and makes a
quick throw to first to nail tho base
runner off the bag. The throw goes
wide and allows the man on third 10
run home. but In trying for second on
the same misplay the runner who v,s

no longer as easy as 1t was in the days

But Messrs. Jones and Tinker are
getting their awakening early. The
Federal League players gradually will
become less prominent in the line-ups

Next Wednesday the Braves come

Thursday. Then come the Philiies for
three games, playing Friday. Saturday
and Monday. BY this time 1t is to be
hoped the Griffmen will be in form with
the stick. To win a majority of these
games would put the Nationals on edge
and have them ready for the games in
New York and Boston.
There is such a thing as playing too
many exhibition games in the sprinH
of the year. The Tigers. for instance
have been too active for their own good
and as a result most of their pitchers
are out of commission. Boland ana
Erickson, two OF the twirlers who wer.
expected to deliver for Jennings this
spring. are on the hospital list, both
having bad arms.
Duouc and James are not showing a
disposition to get ready and both may
have the experience of having a can
hooked to them.
1t is no longer a question of whether
the Athletics are winning. but whether
they are scoring any runs. Mack seems
to be in an awful fix for pitchers ana,
unless he succeeds in developing those
he has, there is little hope of his max
ing any better showing in the next
race than he did in the last.
