MAHAN BLANKED HOLY CROSS

With Mahan pitching shut-out ball, the University nine took its twelfth straight game at Worcester Saturday, defeating Holy Cross 4 to 0. The Crimson twirler gave six passes, but allowed only three hits, two of which were of the scratch order. His team-mates gave him perfect support, and pounded Donnellan's delivery for 10 hits with a total of 12 bases.

The University clinched the contest in the third. The Holy Cross pitcher start-

ed his own defeat by hitting Percy and giving Bothfeld a base on balls, the two runners immediately advancing on Coolidge's sacrifice. Nash followed by hitting on Spillaine at first, who caught Percy at home on a close play. Abbot next came to bat and knocked a safe one to short left, scoring Bothfeld and sending Nash to second. Both scored when Harte tripled to deep left field. The final run was made in the ninth. Coolidge singled, went to second on a passed ball, and tallied on Nash's clean hit to right.

Game with Brown Tomorrow.

The University nine will journey to Providence tomorrow morning to meet Brown in the second of the two-game series. Last year the two teams broke even, Brown winning on Soldiers Field and Mahan pitching the University to a 7 to 3 slugging victory in the Memorial Day game at Providence.
