1t took that Rosedale club from out the
toll gate way to throw a scare into the
Navy Yard Machinists yesterday at Po-

nosing out the Northeast club in a real
Garrison finish by an II to 10 count. The
finish made by both clubs in the seventh
session will long be remembered by the
fans scross the river. as with the count
standing to against them. the Rose
dale club rushed six scores across the
plate. taking lead Of five runs. This
lead was only shortiived. as the Machin-
lists clinched the old ball game by shoot
ing over seven tallics In their half.
Young Ralph Bealle. who did most OF
the mound duties for the Rosedale club,
proved to be wild man from Borneo,
and kept the Gunnen guessing until the
final session. when he was sent to the
showers and O'NeI took up the duties.
Wildness of O'Neil paved the way for the
Navy Yard crew to land the game. Hart
ley started te hurling for the Machinists.
but Hines was sent to the slab in the
second under fire after the Rosedale club
had obtained three tallies of Hartley s
delivery. Hines portsiders were being

beating 1t to the home marker with the
winning tally.
The spectators were furnished a clever
twirling duel during the combat. ''Shag'
Rawlings, the old Banker standby. was
on the hill for Emmanuel and pitted his
skill against that of Bruner. As far as
hits went, ''Shag" had a shade on his

batters on strikes. but Bruner refused
to issue a free pass. while Rawlings
dished up four. two of which were fatal.

EMMANUEL CHURCHMEN
REGISTER A PROTEST

Sporting Editor. Washington Herald.
Dear Sir-The team representing I'M
manuel Baptist lost the game played the
Marines solely on account of poor judg-
ment Oh the part Of the umpire in charge.
The game should have been called one or
two innings sooner on account of dark
ness. The score would have been tkd
and no real harm would have resulted.
The ball on which the winning run was
scored was a fly to center field which was
not even seen by our center fielder until
1t had almost landed ten feet in front of
him.
The players from the Fifth and Florida
avenue game between General Office and
Keller were back at our grounds at the
end of the eighth inning, and theirs was
full nine-inning game.
Besides the darkness, the crowd was
allowed to get into the field back of first
base In the last innings. though it may
have been too dark for the umpire to no.
tice II.
The Commissioners representa- tive, Mr..
Neale. signaled to the umpire at the end
of the eighth inning to call the game, but
no attention was paid. possibly also on
account Of said darkness
/ do not like to register protests, but
the public and players are entitled to real
return for their interest in amateur sport
The umpire allowed the game Monday at
Potomac League grounds to be played
with an Illegal plate. 1t was thirteen and
one-half inches wide instead of seventeen.
Isn't amateur sport worth our combined
efforts to put 1t in the light of a real. Sc
rious. worth while proposition? Can We
not have the commission rectify these
faults In order that future troubles may
be eliminated? Respectfully.

three runs, and scored two more in the
next session. General Office scored
twice in the second inning on two hits
and some fast base running. and in the
fourth 1t scored another run on two
hits and a wild pitch.
Laverine who started to do the
pitching for General Office had moth
ing to puzzle the Keller hitters. and
when men were on bases they were
helped along by an error by some of
the infielders of the Railroad circuit.
Rector who did the hurling for Keller
was hit hard but was fortunate to
keep his hits scattered and was given
perfect support by his team mates.

BY WILLIAM PEET.

II is probably not known, but never
theless a fact, that the Washington
ball club right now is in a bad way
for catchers. and if anything should
happen to John Henry Griff would be
up against it for fair.
Eddie Ainsmith is not with the club
on its present jaunt through the
West. Eddie is hobbling around
Washington with a cane. calling regu-
larly every day upon the club physf-
clan for treatment
When Burns smashed into the plate
during a recent Detroit game he put
Ainsmith hors de combat. the Ma
tionals' catcher being forced to retire
with a badly bruised pair o: knees.
Since then Ainsmith has been under
the care of a physician. and it will
be one week. or perhaps ten days at
the latest, before he is able to again
don togs.
In the meanwhile the burden of
catching Will fall upon the shoulders
of John Henry. with Alva Williams
held in reserve. Williams is hardi-
capped by weak throwing arm. and
in a close game opposing base run
ners would run wild with him.
For the good of the cause ii is to be
hoped that nothing will happen TO
Old Reliable John Henry. for should
he be incapacitated for work the club
would indeed be in a bad way.
Ray Morgan has been working out
regularly at National Park and IL
would not be at all surprising if he
was ordered to join the team in the
West any day, for the Baltimore boy
is once more in good physical condi-
tion and could well be used
Clark Griffith will this afternoon
help dedicate the Boston Nationals
new park. when he throws out the
first ball to Manager George Stall
lings. of the Braves.
Grin is an old-time pitcher, and
Stallings one essayed to be a catcher.
The ball Griff pitches will be counted
in this game. and the Old Fox will
also get his name placed in the
records of the National League.
The Braves New hall park in Bos-
ton is said to be the last word in
ball parks. seating easily 10000 per-
sons. and arranged so nicely that no
body's view is obstructed: with no
bleacher seats so far issolated as to
