Hunt, whe~ opeoed the game for Tech, lllsted only three inrungs, when he re· plat-ed Hnrney in right, Bagley l.'()•ng to the slab. Both Tl unt and Bngley received ,·ery poor &upport. Tech's five errors helping to put them an the hole. Barney, Stoughton and Mt'Cilffrey each slipped one while CarillOn was t'ef!POII· sible for two. Bngley pitched a fine game with the exception or the eighth mning and with the team hitting in its regular form would probably have wOn his game. R . J. State landed on llunt for rix hits and on Bagley for four. The va&1tors l!tarted to score in the tiTSt. O'Brien nnd Nordquist hit snfeh· and IIC<lred when Carlson juggled UudStm's roller Ln the third inning fClur hits resulted in two more runs. Bogle)• held his opponents sc:oreless until the eighth when t'\\'O hits and two errors oUowed three mrn to •core. O'Brien and Nordquist were the gen. uane he:a\•y artiller)· for R. J .
