CORNELL GAMES.
r
Although tlu> 'Varsity failed
to t;ik(> in any of tin* three gaini's
from Cornell, we have no rea
son to Ik*especially discouraged.
The result was Init natural
when the conditions are consid
ered,and it is surprising that the
scores were not more uneven
than they were.
When we win a victory like
that of ’lit!, witli an untried
team, against one efficiently
coached and \vi 11 practiced, we
are naturally elated, Georgia
has had more than her slum* of
such unsuspected triumphs, and
should not he disheartened when
the result is as natural as was
that in the three games of last
week.
Cornell dearly outclassed ns
and naturally, still we think,
she should have made out even
better,considering her unlimited
advantages in number to select
• rom, an excellent coach and fa
cilities for indoor practice, as
compared with the meager and
barest necessities we are com
pelled to put up with.
In tin* matter of errors the
teams are not far from evenly
matched. Georgia's wore more
costly and this with our inabili
ty to hit is accountable for the
defeats.
The season is yet young and
conscientious work can develop
a team that will be able to give
a good account for itself in any
contest into which it may enter.
After till, to be fairly defeated
in :i hard fought game is next
best to being—victorious.

To-day’s game was lost in the
first inning, when Cornell suc
ceeded in piling up eleven runs
before they could he retired.
Hall's splendid showing Thurs
day made it seem best to try him
again in the box, and the reali
zation that his arm was not in
condition came too late to save
the game. After Hall went to
third .and Richardson to the
box, Georgia settled down into a
game which was far from dis
creditable, though those eleven
scores had effectually precluded
the possibility of any very exci
ting moments, during the re
maining eight innings. Cor
nell got four more runs in the
second, one in the sixth, three
in the seventh, and one in the
ninth. Georgia scored one in
the first and fourth, and with
two men out secured six in the
ninth.

The game on Saturday was
re poorly attended than
iliit of Friday. Wind and cold
together with the large score of
j tlnl previous games till conspir-
etl po cut the attendance. How

much better than in cither of
the preceding games, and at
times the result was by no
means a foregone conclusion.

ond, third and fifth, twice in the
seventh and twice in the
eighth, t ornell scored once in
the first and third, twice in the
fourth, once in the fifth and
two more in the sixth. Not un
til lint seventh, will'll six more
were added was Georgia’s
chance entirely gone.

Address of Mr. Stovall.
Pile address of Mon. 1‘. A
Stovall at the chapel last Satur
day morning was of intense in-
terest and benefit. This is no
wonder. Given so enchanting
it tlieini* as the “ Land of Ma
nana to he worked on bv one
of Mr. Stovall's parts, and a
happy result is as certain if not
as rapid as that effect follows
cause, in the most palpable re
action in chemistry.
Mr. Hill’s introduction was
very felicitous. Mr. Stovall told
of the magic land of which, to
gether with tin* land of the In-
cum and the valley of the Nile
alike, tbe ears do not tire to
b"ar; and of its people who
think that one to-morrow is
worth many to-days. This spir
it of procrastination is probably
tin* greatest weak urns of the
people. I hey do not know and
cannot learn that "by the streets
of bve-aml-bve, one arrives at
t lie house of Never.''
Driitking.dressiiig,aml dream
ing make ilic daily schedule of
large numbers.
Mr. Stovall was filled full
with joy to receive, at the close
of his address, tlie heartiest vote
of thanks given in the chapel
for a great season.
It is regretted that a part of
the student body, being away.,
were not permitted to attend the
exercises.
Georgia got base on]balls. Hall
bit a two bugger to center, Whit
field sco ring. Carey, Hull and
Rounsavilh went out. Newton
for Cornell lot a homo run over
the fence, Cornell was unable
to score again that inning. In
the sixth Georgia failisl to score,
while Cornell added to two her
fast growing account. McBride
hit safe to center, Hall was
given base on hulls, McBride
stole third and scored on wild
pitch. Hull struck out and Hall
scored on catcher’s error.
In this inning Cornell decided
the game by running up six
runs, which numerous errors on
Georgia's part enabled them to
do with hut little effort. Georgia
scored twice in the eighth and
Cornell once.
Following is the official score :
