Fahey and Mahan, the pitching stars
of Catholic University and Harvard.
were able to prevent heavy hitting at
times. 1t was rather strange that both
the pitching stars should fall down In
the contest they wanted to win
Catholic University made four runs
in the second inning. and with Fahey
on the mound it looked very much as
if that would be sufficient for 1T to win.
However. the lead was maintained a
very short while, because Harvard got
, going the very next period and sent
five men over the plate.
The Maryland Aggies had much bet
ter pitching yesterday than they usu-
ally have had this and last season and
put up a mighty good game of ball as
a consequence. But the one thing
which caused the Farmers to do better
work than any other was the fact that
they acted as if they cared about win
ming. They kept playing ball all the
time and kept themselves in the game
from start to finish instead of figuring
up their last years batting averages,
as they did in a contest last week.
Mornhinwec and Thompson engaged
in a pitching duel somewhat similar to
the one in which Mornh1nw eg played a,
star part against Perkins of Cornell
not long ago. Mornhinweg has constd-
cradle natural ability, and eventually
will make a mighty good pitcher, but

Senator Blair Lee of Maryland. played
left field for Princeton and did some
splendid work. Lee is player above
the average. too, his work in the field and
at bat being very good He is fast, can
cover a lot of ground in the outfield and
uses good judgment in his fielding. At
bat Lee stands up well at the plate, bat
ting left handed. looks the balls over
exceptionally well and can hit in varied
ways. Two of his hits yesterday were
hard hit balls and the other was a bunt.

first trip to the plate. Lee Is agile
the bases and gets down to first base
very fast.
Derrick. center fielder for the Maryland
AggieS, led his team in batting, getting
three safeties. The first two drives made
by him were wasted because of poor
judgment on the bases. but the third was
in the ninth with a man on second and
scored the winning run.
