Team managers are notified TO get
their clubs on the field and ready for
a start at Sis p. m; Umpires are told
to hustle the clubs into action as soon
as possible after 5 p IN.
The majority of sandlot performers
work until $3.50 p. m. or O'Clock

to make starting time about $50.
Shortening days preclude possibility
of staging innings after 6:45 p. m.

Acting on a protest by the Winston
team, which now becomes champion
of the section. the executive committee
investigated and discovered that G.
r. q. had not played sufficient num-
Der of games to be eligible for the
series. According to the committee, a
number of the games submitted by
G.. p. o. to prove it's eligibility were
played by a junior team of Uncle
Sans print shop.
Proof Lacking.
The knicks. according to the com.
mittee,- couldn't prove that Outfielder
Jarvis had played the number of
games necessary to qualify him and
the committee upheld the protest OF
Dominican Lyceum which made kick
immediat ely after the opening game
of the Section c series. The Knicks
won that contest by close score.
All games played or scheduled to be
PLAYED by G.. p. o. and the Knicks
have been forfeited. They count in
the standings as victories for opposing
clubs. Winston was beaten by @. P.
o. in its only defeat in the series and
by virtue Of the committees action
now is credited with a clean slate Of
six wins.
The Knic.-- with four wins and one
loss, were third in the team standing
and were scheduled to play g. p. o.
today.
Garfield A. C. was disenfranchised
In Section G just at a time when the
team was looking good for top honors,

that no leniency would be shown a
delinquent team no matter how well
1t stood in the title race.
Liberty A. G. and the Orioles were
thrown out of the midget class and
the Mohawks from the junior class
on ineligibility charges. The commit
tee took arbitrary action after a
painstaking investigation of all
charges.
IntersectiOnal Games.
The intersectional series for the
class championships will start next
Tuesday with a game in each class.
Three games will be played between
the winners of the two sections in the
Junior class and three between the
section champions in midget class.
In the unlimited class, each of the
three section winners will play the
other two games, total wins to decide
the title.
The Warwicks and Nationals, will
clash tomorrow in the midget class to
determine a champion for Section A,
