1t was announced yesterday that the
Parkview team would still hold its rights
in the Suburban League and would be
in the race for the pennant during the
coming season The team withdrew from
the league, but after being waited on by
a committee appointed by the officials of
the circuit decided to come back into the
fold and again get together Its team. It
is not known whether Manager May will
again be at the helm or not, but it is
thought that he can be persuaded to take
hold in view of the fact that he has had
a great deal Of success with the club in
the past.
Ryan Of Catholic University, pitched
good ball yesterday against Bucknell,
good enough to entitle him to a shutout,
which he did not get. Three of the four
suit OF a homer with two on. Ryan's
work showed that he will be trouble
some man for visiting teams to con-
tend with when he Is occupying the
mound.
The Brooklanders did better work in
yesterdays game than has characterized
their play at any time this season. The
team fielded in perfect style and connect
ed with the ball with greater degree of
regularity than at any time this season.
having no errors and registering thirteen
hits.
Opening dates were assigned to two
teams i'm the Suburban League last night.
While the schedule was not made out,
It Is owing to the fact that the sixth

the Navy Department Reserves and the
Braddock Athletic Club for the vacant
franchise, and there was much argument

which club will be given the preference
until after the next meeting Of the league.
1t was thought for time that the Wis
Cousins would again be in the circuit,
but it is hardly probable that they will
be readmitted after having dropped out
and having taken very little interest in
the affairs Of the league.
There is little doubt that, taking it
every day OF the coming season. the Cap
ital City League will furnish a better
article Of ball than any other amateur
circuit in the city. While the Depart
mental and District leagues will have one
as those performing in the Capital City
circuit. 1t Is certain that, as a general
rule. they will not compare with those in
the latter organization. The Midways
Pumping Station, Cornell Company and
the Navy Yard are composed to a large
extent of men who have seen a great deal
Of service in professional leagues, and
they consequently have much more ex-
perience than their rivals Commerce
and Labor. Commissioners, Aloysius club
and the American Security and Trust
Company are about the sum total Of the
teams in the city which would show we'll
against the clubs in the Capital City
League. The interstate commerce COM
mission will have a good team should 1t
get together the men it intends, but 1t has

In its game against Georgetown tomor-
row Princeton will line up as follows:
Bard left field; Carter, right field: s.
White, shortstop; Capt. Sterrett, center
field; Prescott. second base; Winants,
first base; Locking and Taylor, catchers !;
Connors, third base; Woodle, Greenbaum,
White and Rogers, pitchers.
Two good ball games are scheduled for
local fields tomorrow, when Catholic Uni
versity and Georgetown line up against
Columbia University and Princeton, re-
spectively. The two northern mines come
down each year with about the best COL
lege teams in the country, and the series
is generally looked forward to with much
interest. especially that between George
town and Princeton. From the form
showed so far this season by the Hill
toppers and Tigers, the game should be
close one. 1t is probable that George
town will send O'Connor to the mound
