VERMONT SHUT OUT NINE

Unable to overcome the visitors' one-run lead, the University nine was shut out by Vermont in yesterday's game by a score of 1-0. Failure to hit in the pinches was the principal cause of the University's defeat. Three times the University nine threatened to score, but each time inability to hit with men on bases prevented any runs from being brought in. In the third inning, hits by E. L. Bigelow '21, R. E. Gross '19, a base on balls, and a sacrifice by L. B. Evans '20, filled the bases; in the seventh inning, a base on balls and Bigelow's second safety put a man on first and second with only one out; and in the ninth inning, Kibbe jammed the bases for the University by walking three men. But the University failed to make the best of any of these opportunities to score.

Bigelow pitched a good game for the University, with the exception of the first inning when two hits, a base on balls, and a wild pitch netted the visitors their only run.

Brilliant catches by R. P. Hallowell '20, and L. B. Evans '20 in the outfield, and a difficult one-handed stop of Burns liner by Captain W. W. McLeod '19 helped to keep the visitors' scoreless during the remainder of the game. VERMONT,   ab.  r.  bh.  po.  a.  e.
