| constantly improving. and which. pro-
| vided nothing happens to interfere with
figure in the race for the Hieh School
championship race, which begins next
week. The nine until a few days age
| showed nothing that would establish it as
| ment which has been shown since the
beginning of practice entities 1t to a great
| deal of consideration. :
Yesterday in the game against the Sen
| ed that club in every department, al
| though it was composed of men who
were anywhere from five to ten years
the seniors Of the boys on the High
, School team. Schofield for the first time
this season showed some ability to get
| the ball over and the remainder of the
team played in a much improved style.
although two ivory stunts were pulled off
! which gave the Senate team two Of it's
runs With one Or two exceptions the
High School lads fielded we'll and at times
showed ability with the stick.
Judging by the way Bill Handiboe
started the season Sunday he is going to
have good year with the bat. Playing
short stop for the All-stars in the game
at Union League Park against the Adams
Express Company of the District League,
he soaked the ball for three line drives
which went for hits out. Of five times up.
There were several Of the men who will
be Seen in the lineup of the Commits
sloners TINS season who appeared in the
game for the All-star combination, and
each acquitted himself creditably.
The Commissioners and the Commerce
and Labor teams failed to get together
for the scheduled practice game yester-
day afternoon. The managers Of both
clubs were on the field, but neither had
sumcient number of men report to form
a team. and the proposed contest had to
be called off.
The absence of Jack Car on the Al
oysius team this year will greatly impair
trict League pennant. Carr hardly has
an equal as a fielding short stop in the
city. and with the exception of Skeets
Hayes 1t is doubtful if there are any who
are as good as he: Last Sunday, play
liant exhibition, and the fact that he will
also be seen in the lineup of ire Ninth
street Church League team should almost
insure that teams again winning the
pennant In that organization.
In the longest drawn-out battle seen
on the local ball field this year George
town and Princeton battled to. . to
tie yesterday on the Hilltop diamond.
The game was the most closely played Of
any in which the Blue and Gray have had
part in in years. After the sixth in
ming neither side was able to get the
! much needed tc1ly across the plate After
Princeton had scored run in the third
and sixth it looked, with the kind Of ball
. that Noodle was pitching. as if the game
was about sewed up for the Tigers. but
! such was not the case. as in it's half OF
| the inning in which Princeton scored it's
| last run the Blue and Gray came across
| with two hits. which, with two errors, tied
| up the game. From that time on it was
| nip and tuck with the odds in favor of
neither nine. At the end Of the thirteenth
| the contest had to be called owing to the
| fact that it was too dark to play.
| One of the most gratifying perform
