Local Club.

Richmond, Va, Aug. 21.-Owner Brad
ley, of the Richmond baseball team, an
nounced this morning that Ralph Maths.
the left fielder for the Colts. has been
sold to the Washington team, of the
American League. Maths is hitting the
ball at .317 clip, and has a fine fielding
record. He came from Roxborough, near
Philadelphia, having his first real base
ball experience in 1909, when he played
with the Perksia club of the North Penn
sylvania League.
At Roanoke on May 9. MATHS drove out
two home runs in one inning, feat per-
formed by Joe Delehanty twelve years
ago, but not done again until Maths took
his willow to Roanoke.
Maths is not a kicker. and is a gen
tlemanly player all round. He has many
friends in Richmond and throughout the
circuit who will watch his future with
Washington with a degree of pleasure.
