280 SALE ALUMNI WHREEKLY SOME GOOD BASEBALL. Yale Nine Shows an Improvement in the South. As the WEEKLY goes to press, only one game of the six, scheduled for the Easter trip of the Yale Nine, remains to be played, that with Georgetown Uni- versity at Washington, Tuesday, April 17. In the games, of which reports are printed below from a special corre- spondent, the Nine seems to have done some good work, and has been 1mprov- ing, as was shown by the brilliant work, on Saturday, and again on Monday, when an errorless game was played. The score on Monday night showed three games won and two lost. Yale 10; Fordham 7. The Yale Nine played the first game of its Southern trip, Wednesday after- noon, April 11, at Fordham, N. Y., against the strong Fordham College Nine, and won by the score of 10 to 7. The weather conditions were ideal, there being no wind and a warm sun, which enabled the pitchers to use much speed. The game was slow and very loosely played, on the whole, thought there were several brilliant doubles made. | Robertson of. Yale was hit rather freely in the first two innings. For the rest of the game he kept the hits well scattered and struck out several men, McKenna of Fordham’ started with a good deal of speed and was a puzzle at first; but after the second inning he weakened and several long hits were made. The batting of the Yale team, however, was not at all consistent. Camp led with a home run, a double and a single, while Quinby got two singles and Sharpe a home run. The rest of the team did little hitting. In the field, Yale’s infield did some snappy work; two fast doubles by Camp and Sullivan, and Quinby’s difficult catch of a short fly over first base were the fea- tures of this department. was slow in starting and did not cover much ground; this was partly due to the slowness of the field. | In running bases the players showed improvement. In the third inning there was a very pretty double steal, Camp going to third and Sullivan to second. The score: YALE: AB. R. IB. PO. A. E.

The Yale Nine met its first defeat April 12, at Washington, at the hands of Georgetown. The score was 7 to 4 at the end of the first half of the second inning, when the game was called on ac- count of darkness. The weather was raw and chilly and the field was slippery from the rain of the night before. There were two changes in the Yale team, Barnwell at right field going to center and Lyon to right, and Guernsey being moved down two places on the batting list. Georgetown, by bunching their hits in the second and fourth, and with the help of an error, got a long lead. Yale started a batting rally in the seventh, which for a while looked like recovery. White, Georgetown’s left-handed pitcher, pitched the game through and was very effective, giving but one base on balls and striking out five men. Garvan for Yale was very good at times, but was once or twice rather unsteady, and was then hit hard. Camp again led at the bat for Yale, but the hitting of the team as a whole was weak. Barnwell’s two-bagger in the seventh with three men on bases, and Walsh’s drive to left for three bases, were the features of the bame. : Yale’s infield worked well together, but the outfield did not cover much ground and lost several chances which should have been captured. Sullivan’s throwing to the bases was very good. Yale’s base running was reckless and several opportunities for scoring were lost in this way. | The score: GEORGETOWN. AB. R. IB. PO. A. E.

Yale won a loosely played game with the University of Maryland, at Balti- _ more, Friday afternoon, April 13, by the score of 10 to 8. McKelvey was in the pitcher’s box and had good control, but was hit hard and often. Brooks, for Maryland, pitched a_ steady, careful game, keeping Yale’s hits well scattered. The batting of Yale was again very weak, though more consistent than it has been so far this season, but there still seems to be an inability, all through the team, to hit when hits are needed. Camp and Barnwell each got a two-base hit and Quinby two singles. Yale’s fielding was loose and the outfield did not cover much ground, but the wet and slippery condition of the field was re- sponsible, in some measure, for this fault. The features of the game were the fielding of Brown, at third, in accept- ing seven chances without an error, and Cunha’s throwing to the bases. The base-running was only fair. Cunha, at _ backstop, and Guernsey, who was moved to sixth place on the batting list, were the only changes from the regular order: The score: YALE. AB. R. IB. PO. A.

On Saturday, April 14, the Nine played a very close game with the Bos- ton League Team at Norfolk, Va., and was beaten by the score of,7 to°G,., ine playing of the Yale Team was by far the best of the trip, both in batting and field- ing, and up to the beginning of the seventh inning the score was 6 to 3 in favor of Yale. ..Ehe weather was ideal and the grounds’ were in very good con- dition, except for some muddy places in right field. The Team played in the usual order, Robertson and Sullivan be- ginning the game and Garvan and Cunha finishing it. Robertson showed remarkable speed and a very good control, and while he was hit safely nine times in six innings, he kept the hits so well scattered that they netted but three runs, for one of which an error was responsible. Garvan was put in at the beginning of the seventh, and while only five hits were made off him, they were so_ well bunched that they brought in four runs. Chambers, Boston’s left-hander, had fine speed, but was hit hard and seemed to be lacking in control. The Yale Team batted very well and hit the ball when hits were heeded. Sharpe led with a triple and a two- base hit, and Barnwell and Quinby each got a two-base hit. On the bases Yale played safe, but there were several op- portunities which were not taken ad- vantage of. In the field, Yale played a fast, snappy game. There was more team work than there has been and the out- field showed much improvement in get- ting started quickly and covering ground. The feature of the game was a triple play in the fifth. With a man on first and second Duffy made a hot line drive up the first base line which Sharpe captured, touched his base and threw to second, retiring the side. Guernsey in left field accepted five diffi- » cult chances without a error and Brown at third did some fast work. The Bos- ton team played an errorless game. The score: © As to our New Quarters Our ambition has been to make and equip a store that would meet New Haven’s most exacting de- mands. We have gone on. the principle that only the best . that any city had was good enough for this city, the home of Yale, and that sometimes that would’nt do. How do you think we have succeeded ?
