Ted Sullivan to Receive
Tryout by Clark Griffith
Star of Pepco Club Will Report Tomorrow Morning
and Will Be Signed If He Makes Favor
able Impression.
By c. w. SWAN.

Ted Sullivan, one OF the Pepco club s
star hurlers, will report to Manager
Griffith at American League Park to-
morrow morning, He will be given a trial
by the Nationals leader. and should he
show enough stuff to warrant trial In
the big show will be signed with Buck
Barton and Dutch Munich.
Sullivan has more stuff than any anna
teur hurler in the District. This remark
has been made by men who follow ANA
teur baseball very closely, and by UNI
pires who worked behind him in the post
season series.
Dutch Munich, who caught Sullivan all
season, is loud in his praise for the
Pepco finger, and remarked last night
that Sullivan would surely make good.
Munich will be signed by Manager Grif-
fifth early this week, as will Buck Barton.
The game to-day at Union League
Park between the champions and the
Baltimore club should be well worth see
ing. Dick Robertson will work for the
champions, and Manager Griffith will
more than likely be on hand TO watch the
local boy. Robertson will be given a
chance by the Nationals pilot before the
season is over.
St Stephens and Aloysius will clash
this afternoon at Independence League
Park at O'Clock. This battle should be
a hummer as when the teams met in
the days of long ago, the contest gem
orally broke up in a free-for-all. Bernie
Gallagher and Jimmy Kerr will be the
opposing hurlers in to-day's battle.
The following explains itself:
September II. 1872
Dear friend Dutch: Your career in
baseball for the past season has been
marked with much success and we feel
the future will prove you to be star
with the major league. It is a happy
thought TO see a boy from a sand lot
jump to fast company, especially with a
strong aggregation of players such as
the Nationals. Everybody wants to see
you make good and stand supreme as a
receiver. You have our very best wishes
for success and We trust the time is not
far distant when we can watch the
score board with Munich going to the
bat.
To show our feeling toward you and
the interest displayed in your behalf
on entering the big league. if you prove
to be what we think you will and estab-
fish a reputation as a ball player, we
will take your measure for suit OF
clothes TO the cost of SIS. absolutely free,
