The St Martin club will get its last
chance to make good today, and unless
1t can produce the goods in the contest
ut is not likely to have even a chance
to win the pennant. If Manhattan wins
the st. Martin team will be about six
full games behind the league leaders, a
handicap which 1t will be almost impos-
sible for 1t to make up.

the Western High twirler. will again try
his luck in the box for ST. Martin. In
the first game he pitched for the Church
men he was n little wild. but he got
away with his game very handily never

The rumor that the Capital City League
would not run the season out with four
clubs is almost an assured fact now.
The Seaman Gunners and the Marines
are the two clubs which are to be taken
into the league. Both of the mentioned
teams are fairly strong aggregatiOnS and

the Capital City circuit, as each has made
a good showing against the clubs now
composing the circuit in Independent
games.

the way of base hits. Smith, who played
first base for the alumni, did the best
all-round work for that club. meeting the
ball we'll at bat and fielding his position
in perfect style.
| Just what will be the result of the
meeting of the committee selected by the
amateur commission TO delve into the
charges against the clubs that were ac-
cused of offering inducements to players
to leave certain clubs in order that Their
services might be obtained is unknown.
Whether the man who brought the
charges against the Willard, Cornell
Company and the Havenner's teams will
be able to prove his assertions Is mat
ter of great speculation among the play
ers who are may be involved. 1t is
not only a matter of speculation among
the players themselves. but among the
different managers as well.
