WESTERN AND TECH
CLASH TOMORROW
IN BEST GAME YET
High School Interest Keen in
Georgetown Field
Contest.

| What promises to be one. of the
hardest fought high school ball games
ever seen in this city will be played
at Georgetown Field tomorrow after
noon at 8 o'clock when Western
meets Tech.
The contest will decide the cham
pionship for 1911, and so well match
ed are the two teams that ouside of
the schools there are few who will
venture an opinion as to the probable
outcome. In Lefty" Holden Western
is believed to have the better pitch
er. but so well has Tech shown at
the bat in all of its games that to-
morrow's battle should be the most
severe test of the year for the George
town southpaw. The teams are about
on a par in the matter of fielding
Tech is said to be willing to allow
Howard to play. Howard was barred
from the Eastern Western game fol-
lowing a conference of the principals
of the schools and whether he will
be permitted to start tomorrow has
not, as yet, been decided. 1t was re-
ported today that Howard will not
play, but nothing definite has been
done.

ToDAY-sewage Pumping Station VS..
Eastern A c. North Capitol and l. streets.
Interest will be shown by the follow
ers of the Pumping Station team and
that representing the Eastern Athletic
Club in this afternoons game as the
Station players are reported to be going
back, while Eastern Is looked upon as
coming to the front.
Bad fielding seems to be the chief
fault with the Eastern team, as IL has
lost many games through inability to
properly support the pitchers Time
and again, with close score, the East
erners will start a general error-making &
contest with the result that the oppos-
ing team Is put in the lead through lit
tie effort of its own.
1t is certain that the crowds are be-
ginning to come out to the games and
forcibly reminds the officials that the
patronage of g year or so ago is slowly
coming 20 the park again. The good
games and the fact that there are no
postponements or forfeits seems to be
responsible. Little time is lost in start
ing the games at the appointed hour.
Secretary ShurtleT, of the amateur
commission reports that the league IS
strict in the observance of the rules
of the commission and that releases and
contracts are up to the minute. The
secretary takes a personal interest in
the Capital City League, and, in con-
sequence. is little troubled with it.
Jimmy Kerr, of Cornell Company,
who is. stinging them on the nose in
the Departmental League, Is not per-
forming as we'll for the Capital City
circuit. No reason Is given for the
failure to. hit as we'll in one as the
other by the player.
Sewage Pumping Station and Eastern
Athletic Club are carded for this after
noon. Eastern has won but a solitary
game, while Sewage has struck losing
streak and has lost in the last few days.

Formal Protest Necessary
Before Commission
Will Act.
PRESIDENT YOUNG
DISCUSSES MATTER
Violations of the Constitution Con,
tinue, and Keep Secre-
tary Busy.

1t was definitely stated today by Pres-
ident Young, of the Amateur Baseball
Commission, that nothing would be done
by that body in regard to frequent and
hagrant violations of the constitution
unless formal protest is made
The secretary has been busy for a
month chalking up games which are
liable to protest on account of playing
ineligible men. Attention was called to
the fact about a week ago and Presi-
dent Young was asked what he would
90 about it. The teams in the different
circuits are bringing themselves into
bad repute and acting against the best
interests Of the commission, but nothing
can be done until formal protest is
made. An offended team or a member
of the commission must act.
Daily Grounds for Protest.
There have been and are still grounds
to protest games every day, although
Secretary Shurtleff reports better atten-
ton on the part of managers to the rul-
ing of the commission. Should mana
gers of losing teams get busy with the
records, which are available a storm
of protests would no doubt be rushed
upon the commission.
A meeting of the commission is called
for Saturday night at Spaldings store.
II is more than likely Secretary Shurt-
!lef will ask that something be done in
regard to the inattention of the Offend
ing managers. The presidents of the
different leagues will be asked to prop
erly support the constitution in future.
1t is reported, although no games have
been formally protested on account Of
the laXity of managers.
Post-Season Series.
At the gathering of league officials it
is expected the proposed post-season
series with teams from Baltimore and
Richmond will be given an airing The
series seems to meet with approval in
the other cities and looks as though
1t might be successful. 1t is almost
certain the farciCal series with the teams
from New York and Philadelphia, which
went through last year, will in no way
be repeated.
