FOR CRUCIAL GAME
AT A. /. PARK TODAY
Business to Stack Up Against
Capitol Hill Lads-0ther
Gossip of Athletes.
BY BRYAN MORSE.

Today's game between Business and
Eastern. the best chance for Eastern to
win the title, may be called OF on &C
count of inclement weather. The Stenog-
raphers, playing their final scholastic
battle of the season, can improve
their standing in the circuit by getting
out of last place. Eastern on the other
hand can clinch the title by winning
over the Business lads.
The Fasteners have the chance of
their lives to win the flag and uphold
the tradition that the high school base
ball title invariably goes with the win
ming cadet company. Incidentally East
ern will gain permanent possession of
the Princeton baseball cup, as the Capt.
toll Hill lads have two legs to their
credit.
Business has been playing just as con-
sistent baseball as Eastern in the last
two weeks. The Stenographer won out
over Wetern and repeated this with a
win over Tech. The Improvement in
team play has been noticeable, and
while Eastern is conceded great
chance to come through today. Business
may play a faster game than Is ex-
pected.
Many followers of the game think
Eastern is about due to lose a contest.
The Fasteners have dropped two games
this season, both to Tech The Manual
Trainers may have the satisfaction of
saying that the Fasteners did not de-
feat them # the title goes to Capitol
Hill this year.
Wassmann Is down to pitch for Busi-
ness, while Tomlin is slated to do the
box work for Eastern as usual. Bill

days game Is postponed there will prob
ably be a doubleheader at the park to-
morrow. Central was to have played
Western today. but the annual Central
High School excursion was scheduled.
and the Westerners agreed to play to-
morrow.
Unexpected Interruptions in the sched-
ule have drawn the games out longer
than was expected. The twenty-game
series has served to lessen the tension
attendant to a short ten-game affair
and has been productive OF good base
ball. The past few games have been
exceptionally fine performances.
The Tech win over Eastern was a close
contest from start to finish. That tC
