DEPARTMENTAL LEAGUE.

Agriculture. IA; C. & L., TO-
In rather a listless exhibition Of base
ball yesterday Agriculture bested Com
merce and Labor, II to 10.
Mcknight, who twirled for the Aggies,
did not appear to have much on the ball,
but he used his head and got away with
the game. Out of three trips to the pan
he never SO much as batted an eyelid at
the ball, walking twice and tanning
once.
Base stealing seems popular pastime
in this league for all teams. In yester-
days contest Commerce and Labor stole
seven and the Aggies got six. At times
neither catcher would take the trouble to
even make the throw.
Ekerwine, who started on the mound for
Commerce and Labor. started bad by
sending the fist ball he pitched over the
catcher's head. He then settled down
somewhat, but gave place in the fourth
stanza to Heaton, who finished the game.
A great stop by Downey in the fifth of
line drive was about the only redeem
Ing feature Of the contest. He made a
flying leap and knocked the ball down,
and by quick recovery he got his man
at first.

Waverley's march pennantward Was
given a setback yesterday in the North

fast game Score, 8 to s.
Gordon pitched great ball, tanning six

Stanley essayed the mound duty for

! FUNNY as he was on the coaching lines

, plate.
Foster made a continuous performance
stop at third base, combining a throw
with il. which was the smartest third
base play that has been seen on the Hill
top in 1912. Thereupon the fans bewailed
the fact that there had not been some
body smart enough on the New York
team to realize that Foster was a great
third baseman and retain him.
You've let more good ball players get
away from here than would patch Ho-
boken mile yelled a spectator, evil
IDENTIFY saying his little speech for the
benefit of Arthur Irwin. If you had
Foster back and one or two others you'd
have an infield and chance to win a
game now and then"
Anyhow. for the benefit OF the local
management 1t Is but fair to say that
Foster never did show such third base
work as he has with Grtnith. and he
didn't play the best short In the world,
but no one Is expected to do it on the
Highlanders' field, for there isn't a worse
one in the circuit on which to play short.
Simmons helped to pickle the game
against Walker in the first inning. when
he batted a double against the fence with
two runners on the bags. Simmons has
| been batting like whale, but he Is
little slow, and can't cover all the ground
that he should between himself and the

The play In the Marquette League dur
ing the last week has shown a decided
improvement over that Of the first few
games. The standard of the work of the
players as individuals and as teams has
advanced very rapidly, and is fully %
per cent better now than when the sea-
son started.
During the first week Of the season very
often two teams would play and the re-
suit would be score Of something like IA
to 16, but that kind of contest is sell
dom seen now. The majority of the
teams are putting up an article of ball
that classes we'll with great many other
circuits. Efforts have been made by prac-
tically all the teams to strengthen, and
no small amount of success has been at
tanned. Several Of the clubs have added
new men only recently. and have shown
so much better form than when they
started that 1t would not be surprising
to see them climb higher in the race be-
fore long.
At present the Washington printers are
leading the circuit by fair Margin hav-
ing won five games and lost none The
next team in line is the Naval Medical
School, with a single game in the lost
column and three in the won. Carroll is
the last in the standing at present, but
1t has been strengthened and should show
much better form from now on.

Manager Nolan and his Statfonites gave
Southern a very healthy scare yesterday.
and 1t was not until the final round that
the Southernites were able to bat out a
victory. The score was to up to the
seventh stanza, when Southern scored
one, and with the game apparently to
the credit Of the Station team Holbrun-
ner was safe in the ninth when McMa-
hon dropped his little fly, and before
the side could be retired three runs, and
enough TO win, had crossed the plate.
Big Warner pitched his best game Of
the season. and should have been re-
turned a winner. He allowed only four
scattered hits and famed ten men. Hol-
Drummer established quite a record in the
way Of strike-outs, getting sixteen, but
was relieved in the ninth with two out
and two runners on by Strobel, who
quickly famed the next batter.
Lands led both teams at the bat
slamming out two safe ones. Although
charged with two miscues. the Station
backstop caught a good game. and il
Manager Nolan can depend upon him to
do consistent work in every game the
team will be 25 per cent stronger.
The other teams in the circuit will soon
recognize the fact that the Station ag-
gregation is a much improved ball team.
and, as evidenced yesterday, will make
some Of them hustle to win.
