on a Championship.

! to Begin Next Week.
BY n. C. BYRD.

only one important game is sched-
uled today in the amateur circuits.
The Young Mems Hebrew Association
Is booked to play the Sherwood nine
in the Central League. This contest
Will have a direct bearing on the
championship of that organization, as
both teams are in the running for the
honor The only other contest which
may figure IN deciding a pennant is
that between Cornell and Hyattsville
Sherwood and Y. NJ. H. A. are two of
the three clubs running close race in
the Central League for the title in
the second half of the schedule. Both
clubs have been going well and each
has chance to win. II Sherwood is
the victor it may result in the asso-
citation team being put out Of the run
cling.
While the Hyattsville A. c. nine has not
chance for the pennant itself, there is
little question that 1t is liable to give
either Of the leading clubs a hard jolt
! If 1t were to win from Cornell this aft
ernoon ii would come very near putting
the Paperhangers out of the running, as
the odds are heavily against them now
That Hyattsville may be able 10 win a
game from Cornell or the Bankers is
shown by the fact that it has already
given both clubs the hardest kind of a
tussle. Last week Cornell came near get
| ting trimmed by it, and yesterday the
Bankers did not score the winning tally
until the last half of the last inning
| 1t is probable that the series in the
Departmental League to decide the cham
| pionship will start next week. 1t is prac-
tically certain that the regular schedule
will close with the Interior and Agricul-
| ture clubs tied for the leadership. Three
games will be played between these two
teams to decide the title.
| 1t is probable that the largest crowds
that have watched the games in the De-
| partmental League in long while will
| be on hand to see the series between Ag-
| riculture and Interior. Both teams have
many supporters, and they will nearly all
be out on the occasions when a champion
| ship is directly at stake. The work Of
| the two mines has been Of such char
acter that series of close games is
| likely to be contested
Despite the fact that he was hit rather
| hard Colley pitched a nice game for the
Hyattsville club against the Bankers yes
terday. Two or three times he made
the Trust Company men look foolish on
the bases. and they found lot of diff
| ffculty in hitting him safely when men
were on.

The season in the Marquette League
| has been declared closed by President
Edwards. with the Trinity club winner
Of the pennant 1t was decided to end
| the schedule in view of the fact that
Trinity had made its hold on the title
certain, and the expenses of the
league were of such a character that it
was feared an Indebtedness might ac-
crue before the season was supposed
| to terminate.
