State Wins Second Place.
The Relay team, consisting of
Arnold, ’O6, Kaiser, 'O6, Stapler,
'O7, and Henry, ’O7, with Long, 'O7,
as alternate, went to Philadelphia
last Friday to compete in the ath
letic carnival held under the auspices
of the University of Pennsylvania.
The race on Saturday afternoon
was close and exciting from start to
finish, Virginia winning by a close
margin, State being second and
Dickinson third, while the Indians,
Lafayette and Bucknell were among
the “alsorans.” The time, 3:35
and 3-5 shows that it was a hard race
throughout. The fellows receiv
ed as trophies silver cups with
appropriate inscriptions. During
their stay in the city they put up at
the Hanover, State’s headquarters
for athletic teams in Philadelphia,
and on Saturday evening saw “A

STATE COLLEGE, PA., MAY 4, 1905
Baseball
Our Varsity baseball men returned
last Sunday from their Eastern trip
after winning the first two games,
and losing the next two, the final
contest with Lafayette having. been
called off on account of rain. The
three games on this journey which all
State was most anxious to win were
the battles with Dickinson, West
Point, and Lafayette. The first
two named were roundly trounced
by Captain Ray’s men, while it
looked good for a “State” victory
over Lafayette with Mcllveen re
served to do the twirling. It looked
a little to our boys as though La
fayette showed the white feather, as
all rain had ceased at noon time in
Easton, and a game could certainly
have been played.
The Fordham game was lost
through several misplays by State,
although State’s batting was su
perior to that of Fordham. After
playing errorless ball against
Dickinson and West Point, State's
four errors all counted in the Ford
ham game, the winning run being
scored in the last inning on Mason’s
wide throw to first base. Against
Manhattan State once more had the
pleasure of playing in ‘ ‘a cigar box, ’ ’
the diamond being about three
inches deep with sand, and although
State hit the ball hard it was of no
avail as everything went Manhat
tan’s way. However, this defeat
did not worry State’s men much as
they were saving every possible
ounce of “ginger” for the struggle
against Lafayette the next day.
the correct scores will follow here.
According to the report sent out
from Fordham State made only two

Reserve Game.
The College Reserves under Cap
tain McGee opened their season last
Saturday on Beaver Field with a
victory over the State College A. C.
led by Dr. Robison. The hitting
on both sides was weak, but the Re
serves showed that they possess the
possibilities of a good fast nine, pro
viding constant practice is held, and
the best men are picked for the var
ious positions. There is an abun
dance of good baseball material here
at “State,” and there is no reason in
the world why several first-class
players should not be developed
each season for the Varsity. The
Reserves are scheduled for a trip
within a few weeks and should work
hard to get into the best possible
shape. What the Reserves need is
some “team work,” and not an
abundance of individual playing.
