Western Plays Business in
High School Series, While
Hilltop Props Battle Army
and Navy Club.
RED AND WHITE FAVORITE

Two important games will be played
today in the schoolboy ranks. which
will have big bearing on the scholastic
and prep school championship Of the
District.
In the local high school series the
Western team Ia scheduled to meet Bus
mess, and since each team has won a
game and have no defeats registered
against them. this contest will be watched
with interest
The loser Of this game will practically
be thrown out of the race and as each
club has an even chance at the title the
followers of the scholastic sport will be
furnished a real test.
The makeup of the Western team
and due to their victory over the Gen.
today's game. In Howard, Stearns, Ans
ley. and Peinie the wearer Of the Red
and White have capable combination
in the infield, and one which ranks
among the best in the series. Although
the outfield is composed of speed mer-
chants. they have not hit up to expecta-
tons. but Coach Morse has hopes Of
them coming through. In the pitching
department the Western Club Is the
weakest in the series. Peck. Griffith and
O'Brien having failed to show anything
so far which warrants them Of champion
ship caliber.
On the other hand Blunden, who Is
slated to do the mound duties for the
Business team, showed a remarkable
amount of form in the game against the
Eastern team, and II he can pitch the
same alright ball in todays contest,
which he did last week the Orange and
Blue may romp home with the long END
of the score.
In the game in the prep school ranks
which will pave q way to decide on
champion, the Georgetown Props are
meeting the Army and Navy crew. on
the Connecticut Avenue grounds and As
both clubs are going at top speed at
present a great game Is expected. Coon
ey or Corbett will do the hurting for
the Hilltoppers while 1t Is not known who
is the selection for coach Newberry's
outfit

Sox in the second game of the series

tertains high hopes of coming across
with another victoryS
The Nationals are-Sill in the throcs of

tight work today and just enough safe
clouting to score a couple of runs, also
a win, there is feeling i'm camp that
the weak hitting jinx is being slowly but
surely chased. 1t was Shaw's curve ball
that had the White Sox guessing, and
because he could not control this teaser
at all stages six bases on balls were
issued.
After the game the White Sox players
said that in Shaw they had faced the
best right-hander this season.
Connolly Does Not Play.
ColleCian Tom Connolly was to have
played left field this afternoon, but he is
suffering from "A boil on his right knee.
and Griff didn't care to take a chance.
Connolly is sure TO get his name into
box score before many days have elapsed
In justice to the White SoX. it must be
said that perfect throwing on Morgans
double in the fourth and a little hustling
on Moellers drive in the fifth would have
choked off both runs. but this does not
explain why Eddie Collins struck out in
Chica COS third with the bases loaded.
Southpaw Rebel Russell will be on
the firing line for Eowland's White SoX
tomorrow unless il is decided TO send
Jim Scott back at the Grffmen.
