Blue and Gray Nine to Meet
/, an Army Team at Newport
News May 4.
BY Il. c. BYRD.
Life may be zone sweet song"
but right now about three
fourths of the world is out of har-
mony In singing it.

Georgetown has added another game
to its base ball schedule. having listed a
contest with the 4Sth Infantry nine at
Newport News, Saturday. May 4. The
Army team has obtained the use of the
Virginia League grounds, in Newport
News, and is said to have developed quite
combination of players. Ten games
have been played and all won. SO the
Blue and Gray collegians are likely to
meet with lot more opposition than they
have faced in their games against soldier
mines in and around Washington.
Absolutely impossible weather causes
Georgetown again to postpone the OPEN
ing of the collegiate part of it's diamond
season. The Hilltoppers were listed to
game Cancelled. St Johns was supposed
to play here today. but today looks about
as much like a ball game as the French
front like a snow fort.
\ Two other college games also are of.
The one at Cfllaudet between Gallaudet
and Catholic University and the one at
Maryland State having to be postponed.
