CURRENT SPORTING NEWS Coach Bradley gave the Georgetown Players some good fatherly advice Satur- day night on the importance of grasping opportunities and playing the game up to the limit at all times, with the favorable result that the wearers of the blue and gray trounced the Tigers soundly yester- day in an eight-inning game, the score be- ing 8 to 3 In the locals’ favor. As in Satur- day’s heartbreaking’ game, the winning runs were made in the last inning, but yesterday it was Georgetown who turned the trick to the bubbling over, enthusiastic Joy of the onlookers. The Princetons were one run to the good when the eighth inning began, with dark- ness fast approaching. The Tigers were quickly retired, and then the fireworks be- gan. After Blewitt had gone out to Pler- son, Devlin walked to first, and then Smith came to the front with a timely single. Cashman, who replaced Burbank at the bat, also walked, and the bases were filled, with everybody yelling like an Indian. Moran, with a do or die look upon his face, then plunked a line single into center, and Dev- lin crossed the plate with the tying run, but Smith was nailed at home through good throwing of the Tigers. Cashman and Moran were still hugging the bases when Downes came to the bat with blood in his eyes. He selected a nice speedy one to his liking and away it sailed into deep right center. The hit was good for three bases, but Hutchinson mixed it up with Downes around third, with the result that the Georgetown leader continued on home with the fourth run. Excitement ran high, and with yells of approbation Downes was car- ried off the field on the shoulders of his fellow students, after the game had been declared finished on account of darkness. Blewitt and Young-were the opposing pitchers, and both were hit for the same number of safeties, but the latter's bases on balls were the trick losers throughout the ecntest. Blewitt used his well-known slow, round-house curves, but they completely fooled the Tigers and shut out a batting rally. Young had, if anything, too much speed, his swift curves and drops going almest every place but over the plate. The fielding of both sides bordered on the sensational. The Georgetown lads went in to redeem themselves, and right manfully did they perform the trick, but one misplay marring the afternoon's sport from their side. Pyinceton also had but one error, and from this it can be gathered that the sample of ball placed before the spectators was of the very best. HIGH SCHOOL BASE BALL. Easterns Win at Mt. Pleasant and Business Loses at College Park. The Eastern High School team and the Mt. Pleasant Athletic Club played an in- teresting game at Kendall Green yesterday afternoon. But six innings were played, but they were full of exciting plays, as the high wind drove the ball along as if made of paper. Balls that were knocked in the air were very hard to judge, and for this reason the fielders had to be charged with errors instead of praised for hard efforts to gather in the sphere. Ken- nedy, the Eastern’s right fielder, made sev- eral sensational catches, and in one he rounded out a double play that probably saved the game, as there were two run- ners on the bases when the ball was driven into his territory. Briggs and Chism pitch- ed fairly good ball for their respective sides w the support given both is taken into eration. Score: High School, 11; Ath- ded contest of base ball took place Yy afternoon on the grounds of the Maryland Agricultural College between th team representing that institution and the Business High School of this city, the for- mer team winning by 31 to 3. ‘The Busi- ness High School was outclassed in every particular.

D. Clark, Mondall, George, Fincke, G. C. Clark, Coolidge, Wendell, Ewer, Jaynes, Christen- sen, Loughlin, Milne, B. H. Hayes, Jack McMasters and Peaffe. Coach Nichols joined them Saturday. Only two games were scheduled to be played this year on the southern trip—with Virginia and Georgetown. Tenley School, 14; Brent, 13. The teams representing the Tenley and Brent schools in the interschool league met yesterday afternoon on the grounds of the former, and after seven innings of ex- citing play the Tenley team won by the close score of 14 to 13. Both teams played a fast game, both at the bat and in the field, but the steadiness of Stadtler, the Tenley pitcher, at critical stages of the game finally won out,for his team. The features of the gai were the fielding of Walker, who accepted tan chances at sec- ond base without an,errgr, and the batting of Davis, who made a hit every time he went to the bat. The next game of the series is to be played Th y afternoon, when the Wallach tgam,js to try conclu: sions with the Tenley tegm. Other Games Yesterday, At Charlottesville!

Hutchinson has no one but himself to blame for the mix-up. yesterday. Blocking runners off of bases may go in professional ball, but it is hardly the ht thing for college games.

Terry McGovern to Meet Tommy White in Chicago Tonight. CHICAGO, April 17.—Terry McGovern, champion of the featherweights, who has knocked out every man he has met in the past twelvé months, will meet Tommy White in the ring at Tattersalls tonight. The limit of the bout will be six rounds. In view of the fact that White has never been cleanly knocked out, the battle is at- tracting much interest. White's defensive fighting is considered to be his strongest point. McGovern has not done any particular training for the bout. He will probably weigh about 124 pounds in the ring and will be giving away a few pounds. McGovern said last night: “If I did not feel fit for a good hard battle I would not go into the ring, but I know I am all right. I never saw White fight, and he has seen me in the ring several times. In that re- spect he has some advantage, and will also be heavier than myself. They tell me he is mighty clever and a fellow that can stand lots of punishment.” Tommy White says: am in the best condition and hope to make a good show- ing. After eating last night I tipped the scale at 127 pounds. That is about what I will be at the ringside. My future career in the ring will depend a great deal upon the showing I make against Terry, and I am going to give him the best I have.” American Jockeys Doing Well. ‘The American jockeys yesterday repeated their successes of Saturday last at the Kempton Park, England, Easter meeting and the Birmingham Easter meeting.

CLAYTON'S POSITION, Explains His Course at Academy of Music Convention. Mr. W. McK. Clayton, who was elected at the recent democratic primaries as a Bryan and Chicago platform delegate to the city convention, conversed with a Star re- porter today over certain recent strictures which the anti-Norris faction had made upon his course at the Academy of Music. “The issue, and only issue as I understood it, before the District democracy,” he said, “was whether the delegation to Kansas City should be instructed for Bryan and the Chicago platform, or whether they should go unbound and free to act as in- dividuals. Upon this issue the lines were drawn and the battle waged. “Bollevin ‘Straightforwardness and honesty bol tics and in ples before men, I worked earnestly and fathfully for an instructed delegation, the personnel of that delegation being a secondary considera- tion with me. I was elected as a delegate from the second district, pledged to vote onty for delegates to Kansas City who were instructed to vote for Bryan and the Chi- cago platform. “On the morning the convention assem- bled I stated my intention to enter as a deleg&tS ina work for an instructed dele- gation. I was assured by the anti-Norris leaders that it would be love's labor lost: that the caucus of the Norris delegates held the evening before had voted down in- structions, and that the men named on the Norris slate had refused to go bound. Be- lieving as I did that the floor of the con- vention held enough manhood, courage and independence to carry instructions over the heads of the leaders, I remafned to fight it out—whether I was justified or not the re- sult proves.

Norris. I abhor and despise the methods used to carry the primaries, but to insist that all the political vice is on one side and all the political virtue on the other is senseless. Until we have a complete registration law and the primaries are safe- guarded the elections in the District will continue to be as they have been in the past—riots rather than elections. “While I am not a leader in Israel, nor in the councils of the great and’ the mighty, it seems to me that after the Norris convention accepted instructions the only rallying ery left for an opposition to follow was ‘Kansas City or bust.’ “Believing from the bottom of my heart that the icago latform is the Alpha and Omega of de: ‘acy, and that William Jennings Bryan is its test exponent, I for one would rather drain the bitter cup of defeat to its dregs In ang again than to win the offices and patronage of the government with a compromise candidate upon @ compromise platform.” —.+—__ Changes in Engineer Department.
