Shipley. who caught the game for the

the Sewage Pumping Station this aft
erncon. Shipey is versatile player, and
is able to hold down almost any position

The players of both teams are i'll good
+, shape for the fray, and ready to put up
the game of their lives. One of the best
and most closely fought games OF the
year is expected to take place.
BY administering another walloping to
the Cornell company last Friday the Sew
age Pumping station showed 1t has not
been winning games this spring on hukes
There were great many who predicted
| that the southeast nine was not really up
to standard when it won from the Cornell
would fail to deliver the goods later on
| in the season So far the prediction has
| fallen far short. every club in the
| league has been defeated by the Pumping
| SlallOn team, ana III a manner WHICH
admits of no drawback. The only game
which it won which could have been
taken by the opposing club was the to 3
contest against the Navy Yard club.
In Martin and Moore the club seems
| to be we'll fortified with twirlers who
are more than able to hold their own In
! the Capital City League. Good hitting
| and fielding also features the play Of the
| team.
! Arthur Moves is again doing the back
stopping for the Cornell Company, and Is
playing in better form than he has shown
| in his whole base ball career. His throw
| ing to second, which bothered him
| and he is meeting the ball much better
than he did last season.
| In Noyes and Smith the Cornell club
| undoubtedly has two of the best amateur
catchers in the city. The Paperhangers
are better fortified in the catching de-
! partment than any other amateur club
| in the District.
hind the Aloysius club at present in the
District League race, there Is not much
likelihood of their staying there. The
District clerks have team which will
show that 1t is able to get in almost any
game and hammer out two or three runs
| in an inning, and when a club can do
that it Is not probable that 1t will long
remain in the rear.
The fight in the District League this
year promises to be a close one between
| two clubs for first honors, and between
the others for third place. There seems
| to be very little difference In the strength
of the Aloysius club and the Commission
ers, but these two mines are way ahead
of anything else there is in the league.
The Bureau, Compassionate, Columbia
GOD and Adams Express all seem to be
in about the same class, and 1t should be
close fight between them to determine
which shall have the honor Of holding
that third position at the end of the
season.

him for three sessions. After that he
