the league for the past six years, the
league Is slated to go under. M

1t is expected that the bumpers will be
allowed to join the Columbia League.
The Navy Yard team has dlsbanded,
and the Gunners are no more.
Whether Cornell Company will apply
for franchise In the Columbia circuit
Is not known. 1t is thought likely that
the team will play independent baseball
for the remainder of the season. The
other leagues will profit by the disor-
ganization of the Capital City League,
for the managers have been busy sign
ing up the players who are out of jobs.

Northern Association grounds yesterday y
afternoon. The Sunday games seem TO
appeal to the fans, who were out in
force. A double-header was scheduled,
but Park and Andrews failed to show
up. The game was one of the poorest
exhibitions seen on the diamond, nine
teen errors making the game farce.
Waverly scored nine runs In the sew
enth inning, which proved enough to
overcome the one run lead obtained by
Seaton.

JORDAN TO MEET
PARKER IN FEATURE
BOUT OF CARNIVAL
Matches Scheduled as Com
pliment to Visiting Knights
of Columbus. .

Chris Jordan, the wonderful Cleve-
land wrestler. who has been seeking
match with Joe Turner for the past
two weeks, will meet Archie Parker,
the Pittsburgh athlete in the star bout
OF the monster wrestling tournament
which will be held at the Lyceum Thea
ter Friday night, as a compliment to
the visiting Knights of Columbus.
Parker wired last night that he. would
meet Jordan providing the Western
star would make 1853 pounds, matside,
and as Jordan can make this weight
with ease the match is practically
settled.
Montana and Tom Dodge, the Pacific
coast wonder, will meet in the semi
Anal, while Frsnk Zeraga and Joe
O'Neill will hook up in the opening bat
tie for a side bet.
AS a semifinal to the big bout. Tom
Dodge, the Pacific coast wonder, will
tackle Louis Montana. who needs no
introduction to local wrestling fans.
Dodge is another man who is after Joe
Turner, and as Montana Is known to
be a great personal friend of the local
boy. a tough match is anticipated.
Wrestling fans are today waiting for
word Of the acceptance by Joe Turner,
the local middlewnight wrestler. Of
Chris 'Jordan's challenge and for the
former to cover the money posted by
the latter with AL Machfet. Turner Is
in New England at this time keeping
late engagements. but Is expected in
Washington early this week.
Turner'S ranager, Mr.. King. gives out
every hope that the Washingtonian will
make the required weight. and that the
match will be staged here some time
during the present month.

C0RBETT FAVORED
F0R. CAP TA|NCY OF
GEORGETOWN PREP
Excellent Record of Pitcher
This Season Makes Him
Leading Candidate.

In all probability Jim Corbett will be
elected captain of the Georgetown Uni
versity Preparatory School baseball
team for 1915 when this years letter
men meet this afternoon to chose a
leader. 1t was greatly due to Corbeit's
great pitching that the Blue and Gray
youngsters were able to win the schol-
astic championship of the District this
season with such ease as they did.
The big South Carolinian lost but one
game, and that to Central High School.
to 0. In this game Corbett let the
Central aggregation down with three
hits, but after playing shutout ball for
seven innings his support faltered in the
eighth and the o Streeters garnered
four runs on two hits. Corbett twice
shut out the Business High School team
and never allowed more than two runs,
except in the Central High School, so
the honor which he will likely receive
this afternoon Is justly due him.
The only other man who Is eligible for
the position Is Third Baseman Cusack,
but as he is the logical successor of
Grove, the football captain elect. who
recently resigned, II is not thought that
he will be candidate for baseball lead
ership.
. The resignation of Grove is the re-
suit of his determination not to return
10 the Hilltop school in the fall. His
loss will be greatly felt by the Preps'
gridiron aggregation. for his work in
the hackfield has always been brilliant,
and with the dearth of veteran material
for next seasons eleven the chances os
a championship team are far from
bright.
Grove was also elected captaI.
basketball team, and, as he will re-
sign this position, too, the baslEet-t toss
ing squad Of the embryo collegians will
be composed OF green men, as Grove is
the only man of last winters champion
