Yesterday afternoon before the
smallest crowd of the season, the
smallest since Wilson has been in the
League for that matter, Wilson tri-
umphed over the Tarboro crew by
the score of seven to three. The game
was not the complete walk over that
the score might indicate, being by
far the best of the series. 1t was also
one of the fastest games of the sea-
son even tho the score was rather
large.
Yesterdays contest was the third
that Wilson has won in as MANY
days from the Tar Babies, and Will
sons former conquerer in the final
game of the series at Tarboro was no
puzzle in the box. Larisey the East
ern Carolina product was on the
mound for Tarboro, but failed to get
away in the same style as on his for
mer appearance against the Bugs. He
was touched rather freely for hits Civ
ing up a total of twelve for seven
runs, and at that his support was
somewhat tighter than that accorded
Joliff. Only two of the dozen hits Sc

The above is quoted verbatim, and
it gives sidelight upon the activi-
ties that are constantly being car
ried on in the Presidents office
Heretofore games have been shifted
almost at will, often without consult
ing any or all mem bers of the league,
and very little has been said about
it. Suffolk and Newport News, as
well as Tarboro have made changes,
seemingly with the knowledge of the
President of the League, and surely
without consulting all clubs con-
cerned in every case of transfer, but
now the opportunity seems to be pre-
sented for the Colts to profit by a
kick. 1t makes a great deal of diff
ference as to whose little dog is be-
ing kicked around.

Wilson is going to Norfolk with
the hopes of gaining the larger end
Of he series The Norfolk team is
hard one to beat at any time, and
the Bugs have their work cut out for
them. On the other hand the Bugs
have been going at a fast clip of
late, and the lead that they have in
the League will serve to spur them
CD to increased effort even if there
were no other reasons. There are
other reasons, however. :.

The stride of the Richmond Club
during recent days has been one Of
the features of Virginia League eff
fort. They have just taken two out
of three from Rocky Mount, and they
did the same thing for Wilson on our
last appearance. The chances are
that Portsmouth is going to have
rather hard sailing for the balance of
the week

games over the nearest team. An

Portsmouth again lost to Suffolk
yesterday, and this places the Bugs
five and a half games ahead of the
nearest competitor. Norfolk won the
third straight from Newport News,
and thus gained a full game on
Portsmouth. The two teams are now
mond playing against Portsmouth
and Wilson at Norfolk for the bal
ance of the week rather interesting
developments may be expected.
The daily times., 1921-09-15

Richmond is now just exactly seven
full games behind the Bugs. We
play Norfolk, while they are stacked
against Portsmouth. 1t wouldn't t
surprise us in the least to see Rich
mond take three in a row from
Portsmouth for with the first half
given to the Truckers, they now
haven't the same motive spurring
them on as characterized their activ-
tiles prior to Judge Landis' friendly
decision. They have the first half,
so they think, and it would be a
mighty nice affair for them in case
they could have a pretty little post
season set-to with some other Vir-
ginia town. However, there may be
further developments before this
happy ending of a perfectly concoct-
ed scheme comes to it's final disclo-
sure. g. [ -

The latest coming from the camp
of the President of the League is to
the effect that there is some likeli-
hood that the games played between
Suffolk and Portsmouth this week
III Portsmouth may be thrown out.
This statement is made in yesterdays S
Richmond Times-Dispatch, and oc-
Ours in an article discussing the pos
sibilities of the meeting that will
take place in Richmond Saturday
right. After mentioning the fact
that the disposition of the games
won by Wilson from July to 23rd
. will be settled by the League Direc-
tors the article continues thusly:
"A new feature in the tangled situa-
tion in the organization affairs de-
yeloped yesterday, when President
Pradley stated that opposition on the
part of any member of the league to
the change of the PortSmouth-Suf-
folk series to the Trucker town would
cause the games to be thrown out.
The league constitution provides that
no change in the league schedule
may be made unless the unanimous
consent of the rest of the league is
secured. The change was entirely
unauthorized according to Bradley
