The Parkview team stopped the Pet
worth aggregation yesterday in the Sub
urban League by beating that team b,
the score of ) to !. Up to yesterday thu
Baby Dolls had a clean slate, with foul
games won ard none lost.
1t has been figured all along that none
of the other teams in the Suburban
League had a chance against the Pet
worth nine, but the Parkview team upse
the dope yesterday by handir; out {
clean-cut beating to the first mentioned
team. Parkview showed just as good {
fielding aggregation and hit the ball bet
ter than did Petwortn.
1t will be interesting to note the result
OF the battle when these two teams meet
again. There certainly appeared to be nc
f1uke about Parkviews winning yester-
day, as the club got one more hit thar
did the opposing nine, and it also f1elded
the ball just as cleanIy and as well. A
good twirler was shown in Hilleary, who
pitching for Parkview, had the Petworti
players guessing at all times.
The tie that was existent in the Mar
Quette League between the Naval Meri-
cal School and the st. Stephens club
was broken when those two mines met
yesterday. The result of the clash was
the putting of the St. Stephens nine in the
lead. St Stephens started off in the frs,
inning by chasing three runs across the
pan. giving it a commanding lead, which
was never in danger OF being overcome by
the NEEDS. The lead was gradually in
creased, until at the end of the seventh
inning, when the game was called, the
score stood 10 to 3.
Georgetown is to meet the Mount ST
Joseph's team this afternoon on the hill
top. While the Baltimoreans come over
with good record behind them they
and Gray. If the class Of ball put up in
the last few games is any criterion of
what the team will show today.
White is slated to do the twirling for
Georgetown. and as he is in good form
he should have little trouble holding his
opponents where he wants them.
Donnelly is liable to be switched to
third in place Of Connolly, who twisted
his ankle in the game against Fordham,
while Fienli will be sent into left field,
taking Donnelly's place.
Catholic University is scheduled to
meet the Eastern College team tomorrow
at University Field. The Brooklanders
Will have their work cut out for them. as
the Manassas nine has not lost a game
this year, and is still playing good ball.
1t is probable that Green will pitch
against the Virginians, while Hall or
White will twirl for Eastern.
the Capital City League, the race this
season will be between the Cornell COM
pany and the Sewage Pumping Station.
While the Cornell company was outhit

beat. to 3. So far the Cornell company
and the Sewage Pumping Station have
been walloping the other teams in the
league with regularity that. bodies i'll
for the pennant prospects Of the other
mines.
Both the mentioned clubs seem to be
well fortified with good pitchers. and
both clubs are good hitting and fielding
aggregations. 1t would not be at all sur
prising to see the two teams finish one
two In the league.
The Eastern Athletic Club seems to be
the weakest team in the Capital City
League, it not having yet registered a
single victory out Of the four games i,
has played. The club seems to be well
supplied with good material, with the ex-
ception Of the pitching staff, which seems
to be a little weak at present. Manager
Wolford. though. is making strenuous eff
forts to land good men to do the heaving
for him, and when he gets hold Of a
capable box artist there is every reason
to believe that the club will do much TO-
ward winning games.
Two leagues will hold meetings tonight.
At the session of the Commercial circuit
1t is expected that Charles Graf will re-
sign as president, and a new man will
be chosen. The Olympia League is having
troubles enough to keep 1T busy trying to
solve them for some time when it's Of
ficials get together tonight. Protest after
protest has been filed in regard to games
played, and these are to be taken up in
connection with other matters which are
to be settled.
The Mount ST. Joseph's team which is
booked to play Georgetown this afternoon,
will remain in the city overnight and go
out to College Park tomorrow, where it
will play the Maryland Aggies. The two
teams have played once before this
spring. last Friday. when the Farmers
lost, to 2.

The motion decided at the meeting of
the Sunday School League last night to
allow the different clubs to strengthen
the weaker mines by turning over some

II carried out in the right sort of way
1t is hardly likely, though, that any of
the leaders will allow many of their best
men to go over to some other club and
thus make a winner out of q loser, and
make their clubs a loser when they now
have winner.
Whether the different managers will be
able to divide the players SO that all the
clubs will be made up of players of about
equel strength remains to be seen. There
are few. though, who wish to cut down
the strength OF their teams to any great
