LACK Of INTEREST
HERE GIVES JERSEY
CITY BOWLING MEET
Paterson Gets Tournament
for Next Year, Due to
Hustling.

Washington will not be the scene Of
the 1912 tournament Of the National
Bowling Association. This was decided
at a meeting of the board OF governors
of that association at the Victoria Ho-
tel, New York city. last evening. when
the tournament was awarded to Pater-
son, y. ].
The indifference of the Washington
bowlers toward the proposition is said
TO be the only reason that Paterson
was favored. There seems to be two
bowling factions in this city, and, while
they are not exactly enemies, there is
great deal of jealousy existing be-
tween them, and they have not pulled
together for the tournament
G. G. Hammer and Thomas Grant, of
the Chamber of Commerce. represented
the Capital City at the meeting last
night.
"Mr. Grant and l had more to offer
facilities for taking care of the bowlers
than did the representatives from Pat
erson," said Mr.. Hammer this morning,
but the lack of interest by Capital bowl
ers has been evident from the beginning
of the campaign. a2d this fact could
not be overcome. Paterson was repre-
sented by its mayor, councilmen, cham
ber Of commerce, board of trade and
many OF It's State legislators.
THE whole-hearted manner In which
they fought for the tournament, as
compared with Washington, is the rea-
son this city was defeated"

RICHMOND To PLAY

WITH PETERSBURG
Planned to Follow League
Race in Which Interest
Is Keen.

RICHMOND. Va, Aug. 27-Conceding
that Petersburg will win the pennant
in the Virginia League, arrangements
have been made to play a five-game
series between Petersburg and Rich
mond. This series will decide the inter-
city championship. Much interest is
manifested in this city as to the out
come OF the league race, although the
local club has not a chance to win.
Richmond has played good ball this
season. particularly during the latter
part, and had ii not been the victim of
several misfortunes with its players
would have finished up in the first dIvi-
sion
Two games of the coming series will
be played in Richmond and two in
Lynchburg. If the fifth game is neces-
sary, toss Of the coin will decide
where 1t shall be played. The exact
date Of the games has not yet been de-
cided.

Poor Start Causes
Southland'S Defeat

For six innings yesterday the Bankers
proved a disappointment, but N the last
two stanzas they came 20 life, and de-
feated Southland easily, score to T.
The game was the first OF the inter
sectional series to determine tire cnam-
pionship of the District, and It was
played in a drizzling rain throughout.
Southland showed unlocked for
ST. ength, and had Litchfield not thrown
the ball away in the seventh, allowing
three runners to score on an attempted
bunt sacrifice. there might have been a
different story.
Shoch Boteler was IN form, holding
Southland TO four hits and tanning six.
After the first inning he lad things
his own way. although an error by
West in the fourth allowed Southland
to take the lead.

Lynch and Hummer
Lose to Cornell

Aloysius. after playing rings around
Cornell the day before, went to pieces
yesterday. and the Tigers easily romped
home winners by II to l. There was
never q time that the Clubmen had the
ghost Of show, and, by winning Cor
nell landed the championship of Sec
ton A of the post-season series.
Lynch lasted for two innings, but 1t
was not wholly his fault that Cornell
scored four runs. as WiIkerson made
a mess of an easy fly allowing two to
score. Bob Hummer, who succeeded
him, was just as easy for Cornell. and
he was, touched up for eleven safeties.
EdmonstOn. Mullen. and Jess Bagette
led in the batfest. Sam poled out a
long double in the second that let two
runs across. and Baggette contributed a
single on two different occasions with
runners on the sacks.

Moeller Dislocates
Shoulder While Sliding

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Aug. N.-Balti-
more and Rochester both had star play
ers injured today. Pitcher Jimmy Dy-
gert, of the Birds, hurt the shoulder Of
his throwing arm in warming up Just
before the second contest, and may not
be able to go on the mound again this
season.
Right Fielder Dan Moeller, OF the Hust-
lers. in sliding to third in the opening
inning of the first engagement again dis
located the same shoulder he put out Of
business sliding to second at OrioIe
Park several months ago. 1t took three
surgeons to put his shoulder back in
place, apd there is hardly a chance of
mis- donning q Rochester uniform again
this year.
He joins the Washington club of the
American League this fall.
Though the full extent of his injury
is not yet known, Dygert was unable
to raise his arm to comb his hair to-
night. Doc Adkins made an examina-
ton. and declared no bones are broken
or out Of place, and believes that a
strained tendon may be the cause of
the trouble.

SECOND CONFLICT
IN |NTERSECT|ONAL
SERIES TOMORROW
Cornell to Play Southland at
First and M Streets
Northeast.
TUESDAY AND FRIDAY
WILL BE BIG DAYS
Bankers to Plunge Into Battle for
District Pennant Then,
Says Gard.

Cornell and Southland will play the
second game Of the intersectional series
tomorrow at First and NJ streets north
east.
The schedule as published gives Tues
bay and Friday as the big days; that is.
those on which Cornell and the Bankers
play.
Southland, winner in section B, does
not seem to have much chance Of win
ming the District title, but those who
think the Olympia boys are a weak team
are sadly mistaken. They can field, hit,
and run bases, which is about all a
team needs except brains, and from
their recent contests they seem to have
q sufficiency of gray matter.
Pitchers Are Needed.
The weakness Of the Southland team
Is In the box. Litch1eld and Ebert are
botn good pitchers. but the latter has
pot been displaying his true form for
the past two weeks, and cannot be de-
pended on. Litchfield is a left-hander,
and cannot work In more than two
games week and give good account
of himself.
American Security is the same playing
machine that II has been for the past
two years, and II is between the Bank
ers and Cornell that the real fight will
probably lie. With Boeteler. Shags Raw
hnGs. and Chris Feinle, Mr.. Reside is
we'll fortified with twirlers, while his
infield is reputed the best in town.
Cornell has strong hitting team, and
slso one that knows the game from
every angle. His players have oil been
playing the game for years, and are
well UP on all the tricks Of the trade.
Seasoned Veterans.
With the exception of one infelder,
Cornell has a team of seasoned veter-
ans, who are not very fast, but who can
play the game al! the time.
Should Cornell win the championship
% the District. the team he will play
against the Richmond Battle AK tribe
will he considerably strengthened He
will play his ball club. which includes
the members at present, and also Mer-
rill Vaughn, the best third-sac cker in
the District; Skeets Hayes, the star
shOrtstOp, now Playing with American
Security. With these men TO help out
his already strong team, there should
be nothing to 1t, as reports from Wash
ington people in Richmond state that
the Battle AK crew is not so much after
all.

Baltimore Postpones
CroSS-Country Event

The Baltimore Cross Country Club
has decided to postpone the eight-mile
run scheduled for the Labor Day games
until September Is.
It Is understood that the postpone
ment was made because the Amateur
Athletic Union refused to allow the run
to be made before o'clock on the
evening Of September 4. The Washing
ton Grove Club is holding a similar
meet on that day, and II has been found
impossible for participants in the latter

hour In the afternoon.
