TREASURY LOOKS
LIKE THE WINNER
Columbia Has Chance to
Tie Series by TAX
ing All.
MARQUETTE SQUAD
OUT OF RUNNING
Marines Fall Back From Lack of
Pitchers Despite Their Heavy
Hitting.

BY their defeat at the hands Of
Treasury yesterday az National Park
by 6 TO l, the Marines are practically
out OF the running for the pennant in
Division A, OF the post-season series
Likewise It Will take a strong pull
and a hard pull on the part Of Columbia
Athletic Club TO oust the leaders. The
best the Capital City Leaguers can
hope 10 do is TO win all their remain
ing games, In which case a tie would
result, which would give the Columbus
one more chance in the supplemental
game.
Ritter was off form yesterday and
showed the effects of his hard work in
the series. He has been called upon
10 do the burden of Marines twirling in
the fight for the title. and yesterday
was the first time he has failed to make
good. When the Marquette leaguers
jumped into first place at the opening
Of the post season games IL was pre-
dicted that they would have some
trouble in keeping their lead on &C
count of the crippled condition Of their
pitching staff. The expected happened.
While the Marines held the amateur
hitting record for this city the neCes-
slty Of relying on one pitcher has push
ed them steadily down until they can
hope TO do little better than finish in
second place.
Columbia Strikes Stride.
Even THAI IS unlikely as the Columbia
Club has struck its stride and IS play
ing at its best. now that it sees a
chance 10 capture the District title.
The Columbias were toUted as winners
from the start and were thought by
many TO have the penuant clinched be-
fore the opening Of the season The
Tiger followers were a sadly disap-
pointed aggregation when they started
off by hugsinE the tail-end position for
the first few weeks But the team has
shown it's class in recent games. and If
It had come back 10 form a little sooner
they should now be in the lead by
large mar in-and the race would be
whole lot less interesting
Treasury is also playing at a lively
clip and has in its lineup some Of the
heaviest hitters on the eligible list,
They have. throughout the games,
shown rare form in the field as was the
case yesterday.
Play Errorless Game.
The Departmental Leaguers put up an
errorless game while the Marines are
credited with two uiscues, each Of
which figured in the scoring. Hester
was on the firing line for the winners,
and while he allowed seven hits he kept
them well scattered and issued but one
pass.
Mccarthy was the particular star in
batting. He connected for two doubles.
Lord made a circus catch when he
ran back 10 deep left and bagged a fly
that would otherwise have gone for a
single

She WILL NOT TESTIFY
Unless She Does, Two Young
Men Will Probably Escape

Chief Probation Officer Guardcilo
Brown, Friday, received letter from
the girl, who is confined in tho county
jail awaiting a hearing on the charge
Of theft, in which she indicated that
she will refuse to testify against Clark
and Bishop, and if she carries this in
dication out it IS doubtful if the other
testimony the Juvenile court has gath
cred against Clark and Bishop will con-
vict them.
The girl says that she would rather
go to the reform school herself than
see Clark and Bishop punished for
wrong that was half her own. blaming
herself as much as them for her down
fall. Mr. Brown is confident that the
girl has been tampered with by those
interested in seeing Clark and Bishop
gain their freedom and that she has
been instructed TO refuse to testify
against them, AS she cannot be com
pelled to testify against them their
escape from prosecution is entirely like

way or another,
