Following Is the correct and revised
schedule for the remaining games Of the
season:

August 11-Columbia VS.. Pension Office.

Gently, the following tie games were
ordered to be played over:
Compassionate VS.. Pension Office.
Pension Office VS.. Tanglewood.
Columbia VS.. st. Martins.
Tanglewood VS.. Pension Office.
ST. Martins vs. Columbia.
St. Martins has five more games to
play. Tanglewood has three. the Con-
gressionals have two. and Columbia and
Pension Office each have one contest to
engage in before the curtain drops.
From indications the Compassionate
will cop the pennant. This team has two
more games to play, and both OF them
with st. Martins. while Pension Office
and Columbia only have one more game
10 play, and that one is between them
selves. AS the churchmen are only one
half game behind Robbins crew. the pres
ent leaders. and as the former will ex-
perience much difficulty in downing the
printers. 1t is foregone conclusion that
the Compassionate will cross bats with

The best ST. Martins and Tanglewood
can expect to do is to put damper on
the aspirations Of the three leaders If
either of these mines should win all of

probable. they could win the bunting.

these teams will top the other at the end
of the season. II Pension Office wins and
St. Martins downs the Congressionals in

Win Hard Fought Battle From
Riverdale.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RIVERDALE, August 1.-THE River
dale base ball club OF the Prince George
County League gave Brentwood, the
leaders. a genuine scare here today. and
but for some stupid base running would
have taken the visitors measure. Piozet.
for Riverdale, allowed his opponents but
six hits and famed eight. In the first
inning the first two men up for River
dale cracked out safeties, and Maloney
followed and cracked out q two-base hit,
yet no runs were scored. ]. flaming
was thrown out at second and Frederick
tried to score on tap to Payne, and
was an easy out. Northridge. for River
dale made a star play when he grabbed
a line drive near his shoe tops
and doubled a man at first. Hayes. for
the visitors, leaped into the air and
pulled one down with his n1itt. He
doubled man to Darnall. Brentwood
scored three runs in the fourth inning
on three hits and wild heave by
Frederick from the right garden. This
put the game on ice for Brentwood.

Monday-Ninth VS.. Hamline.
Tuesday-Langdon VS.. Bethany.
Wednesday-Ninth vs.. Hamline.
Thursday-Hamline VS.. Bethany.
Friday-St. Paul VS.. Langdon.
Saturday-Bethany VS.. Ninth.
Mattingly is playing good In left field
for Langdon. He had four chances In
last Tuesdays contest, one of which was
a long fly. which he pulled down In the
crowd and robbed Salb of three-bagger.
Joe Turner leaned against one OF Pow

handled cleverly.

the bad he generally looks for a job as
umpire. Such is not the case with Jimmie
Hughes. Last Wednesday. when Ham,
line forfeited, Jimmie showed considerable
class when he took part in the exhibition
contest.
Porter is one OF the hardest working
players in the league. He is playing a
good game at short for Langdon, and be-
cause of his awkward manner In han
ding himself he makes the majority OF
his plays look sensational. but neverthe-
less he is hard worker and always in
the game. He got three hits. double
and two singles. which was one-half of
the safe drives made by his team last
Tuesday.
President Stokes umpired the recent ex-
hibition games caused by Hamline's for
feiting. and he found the job a very la
borious one. He was little off on balls
and strikes and on his decisions on the
bases. but outside Of this his work met
with the approval of all present.
Pop" Kerper has played in three
games and has a batting average of .416,
having made five hits out of twelve trips
to the plate. It's cinch that he has
to make nit TO reach nfSl.
Coming out to the big show next Sat
urday? The contest is sure to be a
corker. as each team will have Its
strongest lineup on the field. Litchfeld
or Balzer will do the box work for the
Baptists, while Manager Love will send
either Buscher or Symanoskie to the
mound.
Eddie Davis Of Bethany is the leading
-getter of the league. He has crossed
the counting block twenty-seven times.
Tom Quantrelle of the Ninth Street ag-
gregation ranks second in this respect,
with one less than the Bethany man.
Frank Stecher has so far this season
played an errorless game for the Chris
tians. and here's hoping that the good
work continues. He has taken part in
all of the twenty games which his team
has played. and has had twenty-one field
ing chances. Nineteen of this number
were put-outs. Frank is also clouting
the sphere at 1928 clip.

League has climbed into the class OF
Socrates. Diogenes and other wise men.
At the beginning of the season he pre-
dicted to the writer that the team which
carried off the rag would be required
to win more than twenty games.
Witness the authenticity of his fore
cast: Ninth has won seventeen and lost
three, while Bethany has won the same
number. but lost four. Outside of the
two postponed games which Ninth and
Bethany have, the Christians have three
more to play and Bethany two. Should
each of these teams win all Of it's games
it will be up to the Baptists to defeat
not spoiled the standing at the end of
the season will be: Bethany. won twen-
ty-one and lost four; Ninth. won twenty
and lost five. Bethanys percentage will
be $40. while Ninth will have 800.
When seen one day last week Manager
Holmes stated that he would have a
week. Should his statement be correct
there will be some classy ball in this
league the coming week. Hamline has
three games. two of which are with
Ninth and the third with the Baptists.
The two games which the Methodists
forfeited to Peck recently look pretty bad
for the Hamline manager.
Many fans were disappointed last
Thursday when rain broke up the Ninth
Peck contest. The article of ball that
Peck has been putting up of late gave
promise of making the battle a hot one.
Manager Meyers was confident Of a VIC
tory at the Christians expense Bethany
Is the only team having the honor Of
defeating Ninth this season. and the
Peck manager is also DESTROYS of break
ing into this column.
