Sandlot games today are likely to
prove OF considerably more interest to
the fans than those taking place yes

contests carded In the amateur leagues
yesterday were so one-sided that in
terest was lost almost at the start Of
the games, and when the result was
forecast in the early innings 1t was
merely a question of how much.
In each instance losing teams yester-
day was hard put to score at all, so ex-

The big game OF the week is that
scheduled this afternoon in the Capital
City circuit. Cornell and the Bankers
are playing the game having been ar
ranged from that postponed some time
ago.
The Bankers are on edge for the con-
test and realizing that the leadership
will hinge on the result will put forth
every effort to win. The teams meet
again on Saturday. As the Nationals

city will be in operation and the CaIi-

city crowd.
Pension Bureau, of the Federal
League, is due for call down. and
unless there Is more action in appear

have another blow-up. Everything seem
ed to be going well after the recon

TO put in an appearance.
