Looking over the Washington Clubs por-

rather disappointing to note that we will
have no home games on either ofthe big holi-
days, says Johnny Heydler, in his Wash

From financial point Of view it is
doubtless gem OF schedule, though tht

finish is concerned, VIII probably miss the
usual long string OF games at home late
in the season. The siXty-siX home games
are split up Is they never were before.

one games each, the first beginning June

ering the dates from August 10 to Sep

of the season here, after which the Sena-
tors VIII play a dozen games in Eastern
cities, finishing in Baltimore October 2.
Among the good things are: The open
ing date here with 81 ooklyn, the opening
day in New York, tile goth of May III
Cincinnati, and the Fourth in Chicago
There are also seven Sundays and eleven
Saturdays away from home.
