Capitol Hill Boys Capture
Seesaw Game.
INrERsCHoLAsrIo STANDING.

BY losing to Eastern yesterday, to l.
on the Railroad ~. NJ. G. A. Leagues
diamond, the Business High team is now
the undisputed holder Of the last rung on
the championship ladder.
Johnny Ligon was on the rubber for
the Capitol Hill tribe, and while he was
touched for the same number Of hits as
Derrick, he kept them scattered. Capt.
Dodge sent Derrick on the mound for
Business, and the youngster surprised
them all. Had Hunteman held him UP.
three runs would have been Eastern's
total
Errors nearly cost Ligon his game.
Pete Daily, on third, being the chief
offender in this line. messing up three
easy chances and giving Business a
chance to win out in the final chapter.
Cohill fumbled an easy chance. while
"Oz' Varela let a hot liner go by.
Both teams drew blanks in the first.
and in the second Eastern sent a pair of
runners across the pan on hit, base
on balls, and three passed balls by
Hunteman. The Light Blue and White
boys failed to cross the plate again until
the eighth, when three passes. three
stolen bases. a hit and an error let
three tallies count.
Business chalked up its first tally In
the fourth. when Wood poled a homer
to center. Two more runs crossed the
pan in the next chapter, when Jack
Dodge singled to center after Ligon had
passed Harr and Zupnick. The Stenog-
raphers came near landing the game In
the first half of the ninth. Derrick. the
first man up. was safe on Cohills FUN
BILE, went to second when Harr sent an
easy roller to Evans, and scored when
Daily could not pick up Burley's ground
er. Little Flax then went to bat for
Zupnick. and sent a hot liner to Varella
that the Eastern captain could not ham
die. Burley tried to score on this. but a
good throw to the plate nailed him
standing. Dodge then poked out this
second hit. and Warthen was safe on
Daily's third mum. but with the bases
loaded. the best 'Oosey'' Bill Hunteman
could do was a long fly to Defendorf.
