curing as much OF the old talent as
possible There is an abundance OF
material ia the building that looks good
for bali playing. enoEgh fore several
strong teams. The failure CT the old
managers TO get the last years nine to-
gether is a source OF great disappoint-
ment to hundreds Of young men in the
District government service. this being
the first year since the days o. the old
Departmental League that the District
offices have not been represented on the
amateur fields Of the District.
While a member OF the Departmental
League the Commissioners team won
the championship OF the District in
1901: and again in 1895. while playing as
an Independent team. it was recognized
as the best aggregation OF amateur ball
players IN the city. During that year
they met and defeated all the District
teams, including the Georgetown Uni
versity team. as well as the best teams
Of Baltimore. While on a trip TO At
lantic City they broke even with the
strong emi-professional team OF the
seaside resort.
g. b. Hunt now the Engineer Of
Highways, was the manager Of the team
while In the Departmental League,
