TWO BALL GAMES
Goes Into a Tie for Lead in
League by Feasting on
Virginia Poly.
UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND's

v UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND'S
base ball team took the meas
ure of Virginia Poly twice yes
terday at College Park, 8 to 4
and II to 7, for its fourth and nth
straight. The second contest was called
after the sixth inning.
The games were Tri-State League
contests and as result OF their wins
the Old Liners are tied with North
Carolina State for first place. Mary
land has won six games and lost three,
while the Wolfpack has two victories
and one defeat to its credit.
Prior to yesterdays double-header,
v. P. l. had trtumphed in three of its
Tri-State games and tied two. The
Techmen were champions last season.
In the first game Bill Mc1llwee, Old
Line sophomore lefthander, registered
victory over Reggie Mapp. the ace Of
the visitors corps, who up to yesterday
had won 13 straight Tits.
McIlwee got better support than Mapp
and also was more effective.
In the second contest it looked for
an inning as though the visitors were
going to even scores as they counted
4 runs in the first. However, the game
developed into a slugging match, with
The Olu IilttiilS frequency
and timely than v. p. I.
Bozey Berger collected four safeties
in the two games to head the batters.
One of these was terrific eleut for
the circuit far over Barnard's head
in left field. Cronin, Derr and German
each hit three times.
Five pitchers saw action in the see
ond contest, three of them for Mary
land. Milburn, the third Old Line
hurler, who emily Friday defeated WASH
ington and Lee, was the lone finger to
show anything. He went in in the third
with the bases filled and only one out
and retired the two batteFs with no
runs seesed against him. He granted
four hits the remainder of the game.

disappointed over the results OF his
base ball season 80 far. At least, that
Is what he says.
i've never had . team that has in
bone ways been so Disappointing TO
me" was the way Smith put 1t this
morning. "Of course, we've done the
best we could and about as well as
could be expected under the circum
stances, but We certainly have not
measured up to what ] had hoped for
at the beginning Of the year Injuries
right now have three Of our be- 1t men
on the bench, and there's nothing we
can do about that We thought we
would have one of our best teams, but
this is about the way things go in ath-
letics. Next year. when We do not
expect SO mich, probably we'll get the
breaks and Dave a great season"
