Georgetown GAINS
FIVE POINTS ON VA.
Blue and Gray Has Scored Forty-six
Points in S. A. Events.

Georgetown University's track team Is
farther out In front in the matter of
points scored in the South Atlantic cham
pionship events held during the George
town and Fifth Regiment-Johns Hopkins
meets than was at first reported.
1t now develops that the Blue and Gray
athletes scored a total of twenty-six
points In the Baltimore games. and not
twenty-one as was supposed. A recount
of the points shows that Curry scored
five and Renee two in the 100; Gates by
finishing second. and Nugent. fifth. in the
100 hurdles. came through with FIVE more:
the 90 saw Gates, Curry and Griffith
breasting the tape second. third and
fourth. in the order named. for nine more
points. and by winning the one-mile relay
Georgetown added five more. making a
grand total OF twenty-six points
Altogether the Hilltoppers have scored
a total of fOrtysiX points in the South
Atlantic events of the last two meets.
and are therefore leading Virginia. their
next nearest competitor, by six points.

MCARRON IS HIGH
SCORER AT PLATE

The higH score last week at the Home
Plate was made by McCarrOn, the local
tsIugger, whose score for fve consecutive
games was 2l9 points. McCarrOn has been
a regular visitor at the Home Plate, and
his heavy Swats are source of enjoy
ment to visitors. The second highest
score for the week was made by Gold
stein. who promises to be local high
school star. 'Goldie" made a score of
lSo points in FIVE consecutive games.
Now is the time for amateur players
to be taking steps to prepare themselves
for the summer baseball season, and the
opportunities afforded at the Home Plate
constitute an excellent physical training
and a means of developing their batting
eyes. During the past winter. it is said,
that several OF the regular patrons at
the Home Plate, on street, have been
young players who will receive a tryout
in the major leagues during the coming
season.
Jack Leonard is prepared to make spe
ciaf arrangements with managers of local
ball teams who desire to form teams
either for contests or batting practice.

LAWRENCE BOWLERS
here NEXT SATURDAY
Crack Bay State Pinspillers Will Roll
the Royals in Special Match.

1t seems as though there has been a
misunderstanding in regards to the chal-
lenge of the Lawrence Stars, one of the
fastest duckpin agGregations In the New
England States.
John OHearn, secretary to Congress-
man Phelan, of Massachusetts, received
letter some time ago from Tom Keegan,
manager of the Lawrence Stars, in which
he stated that he was very desirous of
arranging a match between his team and
a Quint from the National Capital.
From the tenor of Keegan's letter It
was taken for granted that the Bay State
bowlers wished to arrange a home and
home series for a side bet of anywhere
from 800 up to $50.
1t now developes that Keegan did not
have in mind a home and home match,
but was willing to roll any team in Wash
ington a match game here during inaugu-
ration week. Harry HALEY, captain OF
the Royal quint, at the time communi-
Gated with Keegan and informed him that
while the Royals would be only too glad
TO meet the Cape Cod bowlers. he did not
think 1t advisable to arrange match
whereby the local pin spillers would have
to make such a long journey for the
second half of the series.
O'Hearn last night stated that he had
received a second letter from Keegan In
which the Lawrence captain stated that
he was willing to roll the Washington
team a match game in the National Cap
itaI but had not given any thought to
return setto.
Harry Krauss, when informed last night
of Keegan's second letter, said that Hal
ley had practically made arrangements
for the Lawrence bowlers to appear here
next Saturday night. 1t seems that they
are coming to this city for the Inaugural
ton, regardless of whether the match Is
for a side bet or not. From this 1t would
seem that the Bay State pin spillers are
70 aboJu here

new YORK ALREADY
CLAIMING BOTH FLAGS
Giants Have Pennant Won in National
While Yanks Figue to Cop"
in American League.

New York, Feb. 26--The 1917 baseball
season can be said to be on officially
now. Three clubs are already at their
camps In the Sunny South. the Cubs, the
Giants and the Yankees, while the other
National and American League teams are
all preparing for the grand spring rush
into the Southern country.
Pennant winning talk Is in the air al
ready and 1t Is hardly necessary to state
that the early season stun comes from
New York. where McGraw, the baseball
writer's and the fans are SO puffed up
with the strength and Importance of the
Giants that they can even now see the
flag flying at their grounds.
Speaking of his club McGraw says 1t is
assuredly one OF the very greatest that
ever had place In the old National
League. and that It proved its greatness
by hanging up a new major league record
for consecutive victories last season,
playing against every other club in the
league.
1t is admitted on all sides that the
Giants will be a strong combination this
coming season and It will not be a bit
surprising to see them start in April with
the wise ones laying big odds on them
TO cop the honors in October Quite q
number of baseball prophets also pick
them as winners.
New Workers are also obsessed with
the idea that this Is the pennant year
for the Yankees, and that It was only
bad luck that cheated Bill Donovan's
gang out OF the rag last year
The Phillies. the Dodgers. winners OF
last years gonfalon, the Cubs and the
other clubs in the Tener circuit. will all
trail McGraw and his team this year
while the White Sox. regardless OF theiI
class, the Tigers and the rest of Ban
Johnson's hirelings will have to play sec
ond fiddle to the Yankees. All this has
been doped out by the narrow minded
New Workers.
However, should the dope fail 1t will
be a terrified surprise and shock to our
friends in the big city, and yet II is Just
the failure of sure things to carry
through which makes baseball the great
est and most popular of all sports in
America.
Admitting the strength OF New York
in the National League. we still feel that
the Phillies, with Alexander, Mayer
Lavender. Rixey. Oeschger and q few
others living up to their regulations. will
cut some figure In this coming race and
we predict. most unpleasant surprise
for MuEgsy McGraw.
