tons which kept their best work in
the background.
Mr.. Matthews is frm in his insist
ence that no more games will take
place at the grounds. and that under
no circumstances will a repetition of
yesterdays trouble take place.
According to the faculty adviser the
tie yesterday will necessitate a return
game only In the event that Eastern
and Western are tied up at the end
Of the series. This will mean that
in every other championship engage
ment. Each team Is to meet Business,
Tech. and Central. and wins from all
three teams would brng the contest
ants together in the final game just
as they were last season.
Eastern's team which Is now the title
holder failed to impress yesterday de-
spite the touting given It at the start
OF the campaign. Western, on the 9TH
er hand, appeared to show the same
fighting ability that ias characterized
the other Red and White teams. Capt.
Wodren Dyer's men were greatly hand
icapped by the spectators who crowded
ing conditions Coach Doggett's lads had
little chance to show their real worth.
Coach Bill Foley. Of Central. is put
ting out a strong bunch on Saturday
to stack up against the Catholic Uni
versity track team. The Blue and
White Is rapidly rounding into form.
All Of the veterans will be in fine shape
for the meet Saturday.

Lafayette yesterday played a seventeen
inning scoreless tie. Pitchers Regain and

most spectacular exhibition of pitching
ever seen on the local diamond. Only
thirteen hits were made during the game

costly.

Frank Truesdale the second basernan

International League team by Manager
Frank Chance. is expected to join the
Yankees at Philadelphia today and may
be played against the Athletics. Frank
wards varsity nine made short work
for Truesdale, left New York yesterday
and will join the International League
at Baltimore, where they are now
playing.
The signing OF Truesdaie is not ex-
pected to mean the release of Roy Hart
zell. who will undoubtedly be kept with
the Yankees as utility man even II

With two gone in the fourth Cald-
well smacked a liner over the pitchers
box that struck Ayers on the ungloved
hand. He froze onto the ball, but upon
his return to the bench was suffering
such pain that he was ordered to the
dressing room. and Joe Engel sent in
to do the hurting.
In only one of the five sessions that
he performed did Engei escape without
having one or more men on the bases

showed promise Of making good In sill

In WARRIOR. Frank Chance added an
other to the link of primed pitchers that
he showed during the stay of the Griff-
men on Broadway. Warhop kept the
Nationals down to practically half Of
the hits which his own teammates were
able to garner of Ayers and Engel, but
the Griffs once more showed ability to
make their safeties count. The Yam
KEGS pitcher is an underhand finger,
and, naturally. he suffered because Of
the veritable mountain on which he
was forced to perform.
Rain forced a postponement of the
game in Brooklyn. SO the Giants and

Leaguers in action.

came time to 90 to the grounds. it was
raining at the hotel where the Ma

Chance on the telephone and tried to

chance to play. so the Griffmen paraded
out to the field.
