Smarting under the sting of the shut-out defeat they had suffered in the previous game of base ball with the Varsity, the Religious returned to the contest last Sunday afternoon with the grim determination to wipe out that whitewash blot the like of which they had not suffered in many years. They succeeded, at the cost of hard labor and great worry, and then only with the aid of the Varsity’s bungled signals and over-anxious notions of playing the game safe. The clouds mistook the umpire’s call play ball as the command for a heavy downpour of unnecessary rain; yet the game bravely continued. The Religious sacrificed a man around the circuit in the first half. Birkmier, the first man up for the Varsity, drove the first ball pitched to him to the main entrance steps of the Residence building for one of the longest home-run clouts ever made on the local grounds. There was nothing further doing till the third, when a little air flight on the part of the Varsity gave their opponents three more runs. The Varsity counted again in the fifth and seventh. By a near-rally in the ninth, they came near winning, but the horse-shoe broke in favor of the team on the defensive, leaving a man stranded on third, and another on second, and the score 4 to 3 with the Varsity at the short end. Each team has now won a game, and the total score stands 4 to 4. The next contest, will go a great in deciding autumn championship.
