GaI|audet.
BY II. C. BYRD.

Western and Business are scheduled to
meet today i'll the high school series. I'm
less Business can win il will be. put en-
;irely out of the running for the cham
;,ionship. which will leave the title to be
decided next week, when Western and
Eastern meet.
Kelly on whom the Business team
banked to show good form in the series,
will start in the box for that team, and
Brewer will work for Western. Kelly
was rated at the beginning of the series
as the best twirler among the school
teams. yet he has failed to toe the mark
as well as was expected. He has not
won a game. failing to hold the opposi-
ton in either of the two contests in which
he has appeared Brewer has won both
the games he has pitched. and is banked
OH TO do well today.
The teams will use about the same line
ups they had in the previous contests.
IL Western wins from Business 1t Will
mean that for the first time in years
Eastern will go into game Oh Whlch
the championship viii hinge Eastern ana
Western are scheduled to meet next week
but on what day the game will take place
is not known. The drill is scheduled Tor
next week and it is very probable That
the contest will be played Saturday, so as
to avoid any conflict.
If Western goes against Eastern in the
final contest of the year with the cham
pionship depending on the result it Will
be the third successive season that 1t has
accomplished just that. 1t is generally
said. though, that the third time is lucky
and White will come out with the long
end of the score. That is. of course. pro-
v:ding it wins from Business today.
No inconsiderable amount of the credit
ing should go to Dave White. who has
been coaching the team. White has
worked well with the youngsters and
has accomplished much with them. He
discipline and that is quite factor in
anything in the way of sports Western
has played steadier ball than the other
mines it has met and that has enabled 1T
to make much better showing than
would otherwise have been the case.
The Catholic University nine is sched-
uled to meet Rock Hill tomorrow. The
BroOklanders are pretty certain to win
from the E4licott City team. they having
shown form this season which places them
in class far above that of the Mary
landers /.
Carter. the left-hander, who has not
been used much this season may be given
a chance to work for the c. L. team. The
will likely secure enough
ing. and the chance to pitch full game
would do Carter much good for another
year.
The MARYLAND Agricultural College and
Gallaudet will meet tomorrow at Kendall
Green for the first time this season. This
will be the second game in which the
two teams have met this season. They
were scheduled to meet Saturday. May
10. but on account Of the track and field
meet held at n. A. c., the contest was
postponed until tomorrow
Gallaudet will pitch Rasmussen again,
and it is likely that the big fellow will
show in better form than against the
Farmers on the previous occasion lie
was hardly in shape to do his best at that
time LOOMS or Hoffecker will pitch
against Gallaudet. and either of them
should show well.
Johnson Of Eastern has been doing
some very creditaUie pitching TINS sea
son. He and Brewer of Western nave
been the two most effective twirlers so
far in the series, and they will prop
ably be the pair chosen for the ail-hlgn
nine.
Johnson did some pitching for East
ern last spring. but he did not snow
as we'll then as he is doing now. a
lot of Improvement has been noted IN
the youngster since that time, ne pc
ing more capable in every way. lie
has better curve. more speed ana
much greater control.
Brewer is spending his first year in
the high school. His work has been
excellent in each of the games in which
he has played. and with the year $
experience, should be able TO accom-
Dlish much more in another season
