Society Teams of Two
Cities to Play Today

The first intercity society ball game
will be played at the Chevy Chase Club
this afternoon at o'clock, when a
combined team from the Metropolitan
and Chevy Chase Clubs, of this city,
meets the nine representing the Racquet
Club of Philadelphia.
The Racqueters are composed largely
Of former college stars, and so strong
a team has been developed that in a
recent game with the Philadelphia Ma
uonals, the clubmen came out victors.
The combination of two society clubs
here has resulted in giving Washington
a good team, and 1t is expected good
gamSwill result. Capital society will
be well represented around the field, as
the interest in outdoor sports at Chevy
Chase this season is greater than ever
before, as was shown by the large gall
leries that watched the recent tennis
