have the snap OF earlier games. The
Bankers won. TO >

From the beginning to end the match
was filed with hard riding and scrim-

Meadowbrook. On the other side Steven

The pitchers were not to blame. Both

Printers slammed only three safe ones
which Gallagher served up, and Park
only registered two more off Smiths

But the support the twirlers received is
uncomfortable. Even John Nolan of the
Union Station team of the Railroad
League. who is accustomed to see his
team wobble badly, was Disguised. Twen-

of consistency. Chris. in addition, fielded
his position in pleasing style.
While in the act of catching Fienli's
long fly which struck the fence in the latter
part OF the game Bradley, playing in
left. ran against a protruding nail IN the
obstacle which tore the flesh of his hand
very badly, necessitating his removal.
The attendance at the game was the
smallest Of the series, due probably to
the fact that both teams were out of
the race and also because Of threatening
weather. Barely 200 spectators were
present.
Babe Adams. the young first base
man of the Post Office outfit, apparently
got the worst of a close decision on an
nfield hit in the seventh inning when he
was called out. To all he looked safe; but
Adams nor any Of his team made no
complaint. The hit was a slow bounder
to Macdonald, which the latter fielded
perfectly and threw to Riddle. Adams is
one of the fastest youngsters In the local
amateur game and was down to first
very quickly, but the decision went
against him.

team or an equal opportunity for the
other will be decided today when Pepco
