GOOD RACE FOR PENNANT
Commissioners Move Up Into Second
Positicn-Bureau Continues to Put

May Win Out.

Last weeks sport in the Departmental
League would be hard TO duplicate. even
in professional ranks. All games were
of the nip-and- variety. and were
witnessed by large crowds.
Six strong clubs are hanging together
in great sstyle, and each is pressing its
leader This weeks games promise to
be interesting as last Perhaps the best
contest will be the one between the
Commissioners team and the navy yard.
Since the last publication of the
standing of the teams, several changes
have occurred. The Bureau OF Engrav-
ing and Printing club. which suffered
several stinging defeats week before
last. is now ON its feet. and promises to
make things warm for the others.
The Commissioners are playing a
snappy, steady game. 1t will be remem-
bered that they have been touted as the
winners of the. pennant.
They, have boosted themselves from
fourth to second place. and are not very
far behind the navy yard men, who lead.
Should they win today's game they will
only need two more to be tied for first
place.
Since Colllfiower has been doing the
twirling they have won five straight
games.
The Interior team has been playing
fast bail, but the team work was not
kept up in the last couple of games.
and the club took a slide. Manager La
mar has strong lineup individually.
