Base Ball Continued from page z Yale to forge ahead, notwithstanding the hard hitting of Mcllveen and Cree,also the remarkable pitching of State's captain. Jackson, who was Yale's star twirler last season, was very fortunate indeed to land his game. In the eighth inning, with Mahaffey on second base, Cree drove out a terrific liner between right and center ; but Husikamp's wonderful catch saved a sure home run and also the game for Yale. At West Point our boys enjoyed their usual splendid treatment, and were courteously cheered by the Cadets, although the West Point nine seemed badly outclassed from the very beginning of the contest. "Sticks" started in to pitch for State, but in attempting to field a bunt hit by the second batsman up, he fell and hurt his knee. Mitinger then took Haverstick's place, and pitched in fine form throughout the game. Meyer's triple gave the Army their only two runs; when Meyer himself tried to stretch his hit into a home run; he was caught at the plate by a series of lightning throws from Mcllveen to Thompson to Mitinger to Kilmer. At Fordham the fine warm sun allowed Haverstick to loosen up, and he decided that his arm was in fighting trim. So it proved, too, and for eight innings the crack Ford ham nine failed to register a single hit against the bewildering speed and shoots handed out by Haver stick. In the ninth "Sticks" weakened a bit. as it was his first game for a month; so Mcllveen came in from the field and fanned out a Fordham swatter, thus closing the battle, sto 3, in State's favor. As Fordham quite recently gained victories from Yale, Holy Cross and Georgetown, they fought every inch of the way against their old rivals from "State," and this game was a THE STATE COLLEGIAN red-hot affair from start to finish Then came the final game of the trip, with Dickinson's boastful cohorts, whose recent victory here on Beaver Field gave them unlimited confidence in another triumph over "State." Their large smiling twirler, "Friar" Hall, had been rest ing for a week in preparation for this struggle, and as he stepped in to the box last Saturday with Dick inson cheering wildly, "the Friar" still wore that genial, contented smile, which worried us so much up here a few weeks since. But this gentle smile tightened suddenly when Cree smashed out a terrific double to right field. Kilmer walked, Mason allowed one to hit him on the arm, and Mcllveen also walked on four wide ones, forcing Cree over with the first tally. By this time Hall had lost his beautiful smile completely, and never again during that game did Dickinson's warriors look hopeful of winning. Around and around the bases galloped State's men, while the Dickinson crowd groaned. Mean while, Mitinger kept pitching the very best of ball all the time until the final score stood 10 to 2 for "Old State." A feature was Pierce's" "homer" in the ninth. It was a very successful trip.
