The entries to the inter-High School track and field contests, to be keld on the Georgetown College campus Wednesday afternoon, June 3, were not closed yester- day, es intended, but postponed until to- morrow, so as to give the Eastern and Western schools more time to decide on their entries. The Certrel boys decided cn all of their entries, except the 100-yards dash, yester- day afternoon, when they went out to the college, where they have been training for the past month, and ran off most of the events. Mr. James Wefers was in charge and was successful in starting all trials. Tom Cullen was clerk cf the course and A. Deveraux and W. Higgen acted judges, while Robert Walsh and Mr. Mc Anery kept time, and Rotert Dick Doug- lass assisted in general. Three 100-yard beats were run off first, resulting as follo First heat—Coffin, Young and Walker. Time, 11 seconds. Se: ond heat—Jolly, Tindall, Ruff and Farrow. Time, 10 2-5 seconds. Third heat—Tindall, Jolly, Coffin and Young together. Time, 10 4-5 seconds. The starters In this event for the Central will be Jolly and Coffin or Young. The latter two will run a heat Friday t» decide the third one to start, while the other one, with Ruff, will make up the five to enter. The 22) yards hurdle followed tn three heats, resulting as follows: Curtis, 20 , Kelly and Bogan, Underwood ¢ is, and Albert and Albert, 84 5s and Kelly. The entries will be Cur- J. Underwood, F. Albert, Bogan and Kelly and Walker. The first three named are to be the starters. The result of the two-mile bicycle race was M. Wilson in 6 minutes and 55 sec- onds, Arthur Plant, Herbert Marean and B. Guy. These four will be entered and the first three will start. The 440-yard run resulted: Ruif, in 53 3-5 seconds; Young, Jolly, Tindall, Stuart and Brown. The entries in this event and also in the 220 and 880-yard runs will be the first five, but the starters have not been definitely decided. Stuart easily came first in the mile run, in 5 minutes and 6 seconds, making an ex- cellent spurt in the stretch, followed by Oyster and Brown. These three will en- ter, but Stuart and Oyster will probably be the only ones to start. Farrow, Curtis and Gains will do the high jumping, with Jessie Understood for the broad jumping and pole vaulting. Du Mars, B. Underwood and Harvey Barnard will put the shot, and the relay team will very probably be the same, Tin- dall, Coffin, Stuart and Ruff. There are a couple of changes to be made before the final entries are given on Friday, but mest of the events will be run by the starters named. want a reliable dye that will color an ‘n or black, and will ple and satisfy time, use Buckingham's Dye for the IN SPORTING CIRCLES tries for the Washington Road Club Races. WASHINGTON LOSES 10 CINCINNATI ee, Georgetown University Nine Beaten by Brown. ae ees LARNED’S LUCK ABROAD The Washington Road Club will open the new International Park, on the Conduit road, Saturday with a good program of bicyele racing, which will be certain to at- tract the lovers of tie sport in this city. The track, which Is a third of a mile course, has been under construction for about two months past. It is ivcated just south of the Conduit road, and adjoins the govern- ment property at the Dalecarlla reservoir, through which the District ine runs. The track Is convenient of access to pedestrians by the Great Falls electriz railway, which runs immediately gouth of the course, and lands the passengers just back of the grand stand. The finishing touches have just been put on the track. It was expected to have the course completed- by the middie of this month, but, owing to the bad weather, the matter has been delayed unill the pres time. The new cours: is one ef which the people of the city can well be proud. It has a stretch forty feet in width, the back stretch being ‘wenty-five. The’ start and finigh for all the events Saturday will be in front of the grand stand. The entries for the events closed Monday evening, end the cummittee in charge of the rece meet for the Washington Road Club 1s engaged In classifying the entries for the numerous events.

One good feature of the race meet which will be conducive to fast time will be the admission of tandem pacing in both the mile open events and also in the District cham- pionship. With good men on the tandems, the record for the mile in both cases ought to approach exceedingly close to the two- minute mark. In addition to the above races, there will be an exhibition of fancy and trick bicycle riding by Master J. Hi. Cabrera. Another thing which will be of Interest to the spectators will be the pres- ence of the famous Mount Pleasant Field Band, with eighty members in full zouay uniforms,who will go through the evolutions set down for them. The prizes for the meet are now on exhi- bition at the show windows of Parker, Bridget & Co. One of the prizes to be given at the meet, and not mentioned in the above t, Is a handsome gold medal, donated by the International Athletic Park Compaay, which will be given to the rider who su: ceeds in making the fastest mile on the course during any of the events of the meet. This is in addition to the other prizes offered for the winners of the races. The International Park people also donate the full set of medals which are given for the novice race. The Mount Pleasant Field Band will open up the program at 3 o'clock sharp with a parade sround the inside of the track. They will also play popular lections dur- ing the races. This will be followed by a piano concert in the grand stand promenade upon a self-playing piano, Record of the Clubs. Clubs. W. 1. PC. Yt 6 inaatt Pitishur Phil. Today's Cincinnati at Washington.

Selbach probably meant all right Tuesday when he shouted to Vaughn: “We'll make you folks suffer for this tomorrow,” but bis threat fell a little shy in the carrying out. The tomorrow referred to arfived promptly on schedule time, and with it un- questioned defeat for the Washington club, after an exhibition of ball playing that was woefully unscientific. To be truthful, the home team displayed a surprising lack of judgment In batting, and also in base run- ning,’ while fielding errors galore, some glaring, were plentifuily insterspersed. Verily, it was an extremely offish day for the Washington players. Lester German was at the distributing end of the alley for Washington, and his twirling was up to the standard. With or- dinary support he might have won out. The deliverer of spheres for Cincinnati » WASHINGTO GINCIN RHO. A. | z . B.

Pittsburg in the ninth went one better, but the Bostons in thetr half made a brace and won the game. Both Stivetts and Killen were batted so hard that it was necessary to remove them from the game.

Hurst very promptly sent Miller and Vaughn to the bench, when they grew too noisy on the coach lines. Lush’s error of Burke's high fly back of second was inexcusable. The chance was dead easy, and had it been accepted, the side would have been retired, and at least one run shut off. The yelling and jeering of the spectators out doubt caused Vaughn to muff Ab- s foul fly in the third. It is reported that Washington is treated in_ similar fashion when playing away from home. Irwin's stop of Joyce's hard hit grounder down the third base line was a breath taker. Abbey seems to accept chances right along that other fielders fail even to ap- proach. With a runner on first and nobody or only one out, the Washington batters yes- | terday repeatedly failed to even attempt sacrificing. Every man used all his energy, apparently, in an effort to line them out. As a result, the balls fell in the fielders’ hands, and the runners remained station- ary. All this, too, in the face of Joyce's declarations ‘that his policy Is to bunt whenever possible. Dusty Miller and the right field bleachers made @ merry matinee of it. There was a continuous but good-natured scrap in prog- ress between Dusty and the crowd. In the fifth Irwin walked to one of the private boxes and folded a chair, claiming that the sun was reflected from its varnish- ed surface across his eyes. Crooks imme- diately replaced the offending chair in its original position, and difficulty immediately ensued. Finally Hurst removed the novel ector, and play was resumed. However, when everybody was apparently interested in the game, a small boy from the refresh- ment stand climbed into the box and en- deavored to arrange that same chair in a manner annoying to the Cincinnat! third baseman. In the fifth Ehret thought Cartwright was not looking and merely tossed the ball over the plate. Ed was on the alert, how- ever, and slugged at the sphere, which fell safe between the right fielder, center field- er and second baseman. The crowd howled. “Fine the umpire,” shouted an individual in the stand during a heated argument between Joyce and Hurst. Foreman, on the coach lines, expressed the intention of amusing the crowd, and thereupon successfully imitated a monkey. “Oh, we'll make a monkey of you tomorrow if you pitch,” was the style in which the bleachers got back at him. Because of absence of directions, an easy fly in the seventh fell uncaught between McGuire and Rogers. “Silver” King made his first appearance on the coach lines yesterday. He appears as sprightly as a two-year-old, and cer- tainly presents a youthful appearance. Joyce takes advantage of every play as vJect lesson to lecture his men on how s catch in the eighth was simply great. And the dummy was not good enough for Washington. ‘The bat Buck Ewing wields 1s striped like a leopard, and if colored would make a hit as a barber pole. The Browns are said to be deficient in team work. At Baltinfore yesterday all hands—that fs, St. Louls hands—tried to bat the ball out of the lot. Connor could have assisted in scoring a run in the fourth had he sacrificed; instead, he sent up a pop fly to first base. Yesterday College Games.
