Breaks in With Victory After Three
Consecutive Successes by
Commercial.
ALL-H1GH SCHOOL TEAM.
BY Edwin B. Henderson. physi-
cal director. colored high schools.

The athletic season in high school
circles for the year ended with cham
pionship in base ball for NJ street High
School. This victory breaks a string
of championships in base ball that has
fallen to the lot Of the Commercial
High School boys during the past three
years From the way the Stenograph-
ers started the season it seemed they
were bound for a fourth successive
championship, but the loss of the serv-
ices of Collins and Taylor and the gain
Of Diggs and Adams by NJ Street in
mid-season changed the aspect.
Many better players than some of the
above honored men played at some time
in the series, but in selecting players
who mean most to the team, those who
do not maintain ratings sufficient to
qualify and play in a majority of
games can hardly be considered. Out

Commercial was injured in one Of the
games he started and did not hit so
well as he has in the past years, and
Spriggs of Armstrong was effective

players whose names occupy the chosen
positions. West and Lee, as catchers,
were good at times, but Costin tops

SO very far above the others as to leave
no doubt. Diggs of NJ Street is very
valuable hitter, but lacks the finished

infleld. Davis and Brown of CONNER

TWO OLD NAVAL. ANCHORS
FOUND IN ANACOSTIA
Relics of Men-of- War Sunk in 1914
Fished Out Of the
River.

Two old naval anchors and chains,
relics of United States warships sunk in
the Anacostia river near the present site
of the Anacostia bridge in 1914, to pre-
vent their capture by British men-of-war
during the invasion of this city by British
forces in that year, are the subject OF
correspondence between the War and
Navy departments. The relics recently
were f1shed from the bed of the river by
the Cape May Dredging Company. which
has contract with the War Department
for dredging the river and depositing the
material on the flats on the Anacostia side
of the stream
One of the anchors was an old-fash-
ioned affair weighing about 1000 pounds.
to which was attached thirty fathoms of
one and ne-quarter inch chain, marked
"I'. S. Navy" The other was a mushroom
anchor weighing about 1.600 pounds. to
which was attached fifteen fathoms of
one and one-half inch chain. Their re-
covery was reported to the officers of the
Washington navy yard, who ldentfed
them property of the United States
Navy of an obsolete pattern and of small
value except as relics of the early days
of the navy
The War Department had no use for
the material and offered to give it to
the Navy Department. The contractors
also are willing to turn the anchors over
to the authorities of the navy yard, but
consider that they should be reimbursed
for the trouble and extra cost involved in
their recovery. The anchors and chains
are valued at less than 5000 all told and
no bill of costs for their recovery has vet
been submitted
The War Department has been asked
as to the propriety of reimbursing the
contractors. If satisfactory arrangements
are concluded the old war relics will be
turned over to the Washington navy yard
for such use as may be found for them for
purposes of exhibition or otherwise.
