PEPCOS TO FACE,
"ALL STARS" TODAY
"Hene' Schulz, Savannahs Crack Twirler Will Pitch
Against the Local Champions-Little Interest in the
Richmond Games on Saturday.

Manager Gray's Pepco team is going
up against the real thing this afternoon,
when 1t takes on an all-star team at
the Independence League grounds in
preparation for the coming games at
Richmond on Saturday. The city cham
pions are scheduled to face "Heine"
Schulz Savannahs crack twirler, who
will be supported by Joe Giebel, who
was his battery mate in the South At
lantic League this season.
Schulz, it will be remembered, was
sought by Clark Griffith. but the New
York Highlanders beat him to it and
signed the star hurler. With Schulz is
Dick Robertson, who was a winning
pitcher for the Savannah club this year.
Robertson and Giebel are we'll remem-
bered for their work among the anna
teur teams here before they went to
Savannah.
Buck" Barton, who has won practi-
cally every game that he has starttd
in the past three weeks, will be saved
for Thursdays contest. according to
Manager Gray. Dick Robertson has
been induced to oppose his old pal
Schulz, and will pitch for the Pepco
team. With two good twirlers and two
exceptionally good teams behind them
the fans are likely to see one of the
best games of the season.
Supporting the pitchers, the fans are
likely to see many old faces. Curley
Brown. we'll known as member Of the
Cornell team two seasons ago. and at
present with the Goldsboro team, will
hold down the second sack, while
Mickey keliher, for time with the
Pirates and Montreal. and who has been
playing with the Petersburg team, in
the Virginia League. will be on first
base.
