games in view for the next month or so,

resulted in defeat was well contested |
McGlue is putting up good game at Sec |
ond. Zell, Burns, and Moriarty are doing |
coed work in the outfield, and Nixon at |

Eastern Athletic Club. 1
"Ail teams look alike to the Eastern |
Athletic Club. Since the beginning of the
ocal League sarieg and, indeed, since the |
opening of the season, this clever aggrega-
ion of ball players has not suffered defeat |
md now leads the League with a comforta- |
Die margin.
Next Wednesday. July 4, the endur-
,nce of the players will be fully tested /!
n the morning and afternoon games to be
played with the Government Printing Of
ice team. Next Saturday the team
plays at Rockville again. as the result OF |
rather poorly constructed schedule for, |
about fortnight ago, these teams met in
he Maryland town. and in the interim,
he Rockvillee should have played the |
Easterns here.
With Collifower and Stanley in E. a.
9. uniforms. the team has two of the best |
pitchers in the League, as well as a pair
Of very useful felders, and both strong
hitters.
Dunn is doing nearly all the backstop
work, and is doing 1t well.
McCauley at second and Raab at short,
play well together. They do their share
Of hitting. too. Bielaski is rounding to |
in form. and will make good man in the
very trying position of third bagman,
which is really Raab's place, who, with
the return Of Veuable. may go back to |
third base. o. p. SCHMIDT.
