Players and Followers Ex-
pect Meeting Tonight
to Decide.
STARTED SEASON
WITH BIG FUTURE
Race With Capital City Circuit for
Supremacy One of
Interest.

1t is an opeE secret among PLAYERS
and followers of the District League
that the meeting scheduled for tonight
may see the discontinuance of the cir
cult or a complete and thorough reor-
ganization. The addition of new teams
or the strengthening of the weak ones
Is thought by many to lie out of the
question. and the league is known to be
financially up against it.
No new organization opened this sea-
son more auspiciously than the District
circuit at First and NJ streets. the old
grounds occupied by the Capital City
League. Early IN the season an option
was obtained on the grounds and the
C2pital City League was forced to va
cate. The fence was removed with the
stands and the new District organiza-
tion started rebuilding. The Capital
City gathered its lumber together and
after 6eliberation built it's grounds on
the southwest corner of the same block.
Struggle for Supremacy.
Doubt was expressed by many at the
time that both leagues would prosper,
and the fall of the Capital City League
seemed imminent III the face of the au-
spicous opening of the District League.
The Capital City circuit vas forced to
play with four clubs, but the games
were generally close and there were no
forfeits or postponed games, and the
attendance kept up.
The District League early fell into
rut when great disparity was noted in
the strength of the six teams in the
circuit. Little interest WAS taken by
fans or players and the games were
being postponed and forfeited with reg
ulal1ty. New teams were organized and
old ones thrown out as players showed
a preference for teams in other cir
cults, playing with them on days when
their team played in the District League.
Talk of Affiliation.
There was considerable talk some time
ago when the forfeited games were reg
ular in the new league. that afflation
with the Capital City circuit would be
made. This was secuted at once by
members of both leagues although 1t
was known at the time that teams were
dissatisfied with the showing of the
District circuit.
Seeing that nothing could be done in
getting attendance for the District
League the gates were thrown open to
the crowd with little avail. as forfeited
games again were in evidence. Every
thing possible has been tried by the
District League officials and tonight
last desperate stand Will be taken to
try to stave off defeat.
it was seen at the beginning of the
season that one or the other of the
leagues on the same block was doomed,
and from all indications the District
League has drawn a blank. The under
current of feeling between the two has
furnished considerable interest for many
fans, and is again the outcome of sew
eral years skirmishes.

of the Second Washington batters, WIN
ming his game with ease.
But three hits were made against the
tall pitcher and one of those was OF
the scratchy order. Those who saw
the game were of the opinion that the
performance was by far the best Boet-
ler has made this year.
II the weather permits, the game this
afternoon will see Commercial National
against American Security for the first
time this year. Commercial has had to
have several postponed games and
American Security has not been met be-
fore.
c. Handy was the only player for the
District team to fall down in fielding.
His one slip-up was costly.
Lynn, of District National, poled a
homer and Handy and Zirple got two
hits apiece. This was about all the
hitting on either team with the excep-
ton of two hits by Moore Of Second
Washington.
Greene, the Catholic University pitch
er, lately signed for American Security,
may serve them up for that team to-

Yesterdays game in the Suburban

for the battle, and the spectators were
accorded treat which was greatly en-
joysd.
Park View squeezed the only score

the race and showing the PetU Orth club

reported one of the largest which has

To Tim Chism must be given credit
for the victory. as he had the Petworth
batters on his staff. He was saved by
some excellent fielding by his team
mates. but twirled a no-hit game.

peared 10 be in the best shape he has
been this season. allowing three hits
and striking out ten of the eighteen
men who were retired. Chism's double.
which resulted in the run, would have
been caught on IN open field, but landed
in a carriage which had stopped in the
roadway.
Miller caught a foul off Birch which
undoubtedly turned the tide of the
game. Stewart was passd as a starter
and Birch attempted to sacrifice, the
ball going directly back of the catcher.
Instinct must have told him to turn
around, and, with a flying dive, he grab
