Lafayette and Georgia usually are

last year had an exceptional team.
and Georgia. which also plays at
Maryland this afternoon. as well as
south. Marylands game with Geor-
gia at College Park at 2:30 o'clock is
the only game here today.
field squad is due here this afternoon
for dual track and field meet with
University of Maryland tomorrow
morning at 10:15. The Generals were
defeated by Virginia last week. but
Maryland's track squad is far from
being as formi dable as the Charfottes-
willie school. Especially is this true
when it is considered that Robertson,
who was expected to clean up in the
half mile and score points in the
high jump and quarter, may not be
able to compete, because of an in
fected foot.
Two games In one day are played
by Georgetown. and still it wins.
Yesterday Pittsburgh was swamped
in a morning game and the great Holy
Cross nine whipped in the afternoon
by to 6. The Blue and Gray con-
tinues to get good pitching, hard hit
ting and fielding much better than
usually nearly always produces
winning base ball.
In hnnding Holy CROSS it's first
did some heavy hitting in the seventh
inning of the S-to-6 afternoon game
at the Hilltop. Singles were made by
John Murphy. Reynolds. Malley and
Sheridan, while Jim Murphy tripled
and Flavin and Sheedy knocked
hnDnorS in the hectic QaSSinn netting
the home team seven tallies. Horan
was driven from the slab during the
melee and Gill finished the game. Out
side the seventh. Holy Cross general
~ -outplayed the Hilltoppers, although
Reynolds pitched good ball.
Against Pittsburgh in the morning,
Georgetown easily scored its 14-to-0
victory. Neither Bloom nor Noble
could check the Hilltop hitters.
Georeetown's nine has lost Pitcher
AL Schmitt for the remainder of the
season. The hurler now is in the uni
versity hospital recovering from an
operation for appendicitis performed
stricken Tuesday night. Schmitt play
ed with the basket ball team last
winter and was expected to be a
sturdy slabman for the nine this
spring. Last Monday he scored win
over Cornell.
URiversity of Maryland and Catho-
lie University engaged in a weird
ming by II to game in which it
sIugged out nineteen hits. The Brook
landers played ragged ball and could
not hit consistently. Their eight hits
produced seven runs. and after the
second inning, in which Clark was
compelled to play an uphill game.
Jackson succeeded Clark and was hit
hafd-much harder than is usual for
him to be hit. Catholic y. was OF it's
fielding game and its errors OF onis-
st0n were several ~
Clark, who began the -hurling for
the Brook1anders. had a lot of speed
on-the ball, but practically everything
he threw over the heart OF the plate.
Jackson was lucky not to have more
innings he got away without being
scored on, as men were caught at the
plate on splendid throws after hits to
the outfield.
Harry Wilson. who made his first
appearance on the slab for Maryland
against c. u, has the natural ability
to make a splendid college pitcher.
Wilson Is big and strong, and besides
curve He is student in the dental
school in Baltimore and is unable to
get out for practice regularly and
consequently will never be able to
show at his true worth.
Catholic University must have
played some mighty good inside base
ball to whip teams like Dartmouth
and Vermont. The material Coach
Moran has to build his nine with is
far inferior to the caliber of players
making up the two New England ag-
gregations which were here last
week.
University of Virginia, on its one
sided victory over Washington and
Lee last Saturday, is said to have
splendid track squad, but II pro-
badly will get a test of its real worth
tomorrow when 1t lines up against
Princeton at Charlottesville. Some
thing of the strength Virginia is
likely to show in the South Athlantic
championship against Georgetown's
great squad will be known after to-
morrow's dual affair with the Tigers.
