Holy Cross Gives Tigers
Third Straight Defeat

Princeton, y. j., April 3.-Holy Cross
administered the third consecutive de-
feat to the Princeton nine this after
noon. 9 to ). The game was replete
with errors and bad judgment on the
part of both teams. That the Tigers
great weakness lies in the pitching
staff was again evident.
Madden. the Princeton second sack
or. playing as a regular for his hrst
season, made a fine showing. getting
two clean hits and making four assists
Holy Cross hit Parmele freely in the
second inning and Tailed four runs
and although Princeton took a one
run lead again in the fifth inning the
final result was never in doubt

Lewis Wins at
Billiards for
Memorial Cup
Draws Nearer Finals in 1872
Tournament by Besting
George T. Moon, Jr.

Claude r. Lewis playing ll5 points,
advanced another step toward the finals
for the Poggenburg Memorial Cup when
he defeated George T. Moon. jr., at
Maurice Days billiard room last night.
Lewis completed his string with an un-
finished run of twelve, while Moon was
still nine short Of his necessary 10
points.
Lewis even in victory did not play a
strong nor steady game. lie had all
manner Of difficulty in keeping the
worries together, but for all that he
managed to win. Three games will be
played to-day. In the afternoon Frank
Appleby will meet W. Gershell, while
Ed Applcby Will cross cues with George
T. Moon, ir. In the evening J. Kliner
and Lewis Will play.
Moon. apparently. was too nervous to
give of his best. Playing cleverly at IN
tervals. he missed shots that a mere
tyro might have executed without trou-
bic. His short draw shots gave him
much trouble. and cushion shots Of
more than ordinary difficulty were al
most impossible. Moon showed just how
nervous he was in the sixteenth inn
ing. when he made a run of fourteen. a
cat walked across the floor, and one Of
the spectators called Here, Kitty
Moon stopped. hesitated, and then. try
ing again, missed by wide margin.
Lewis was good enough to win his
game. lie could not keep the balls to-
gother and many of his counts were
made on open shots.
