BEAT RANGERS, FL

Chilly breezes added plenty OF zip
to yesterdays National Capital Soc
Ger League game on the Monument
grounds when the Harlems defeated
the Rangers by a 2-to-1 score in the
best played game of the season. Rain
started falling shortly after the final
half got under way. but the bare
kneed athletes continued the fight
until the forty-five minutes were
played.
The Harlem hooters. from out
along the Conduit road, tucked the
game away in the first half when
they Tailed both their goals. The
goal by Charley Kessler. who made
his first appearance in a Harlem uni
form. was the most thrilling play of
the afternoon. He booted the leather
from the center of the field.

The Senators could not cope with
the Monumentals' defense, allowing
them to score all their points in
that period. The FIRST score was
the result of a scrimmage in front

speedy local forward. picking the
ball out of the mass of players ard
booting it past Collins, the Wash

quickly followed. when Swingler put
the ball through the uprights in a
well directed kick from the 20
yard mark.
The Capital City aggregation took
a brace in the second session. Their
defense became stronger. but their
attack could not puncture the lc-
calls backs. Several times they had
opportunities to score, but theiI

GRIFFITH TO BUY OUTFEIDER FRANK OSBURN FROM TAMPA
Calling EN- Right
In d. c. SpOrtdon,
By KEEN GAUGER :
sANDLoTrERs WANT DAYLIGHT
SAVING.

SANlhG.
TT THE bill introduced in the
i House by Representative z. R.
Alderman, OF New Jersey, to re-
establish daylight saving In the
District was left to a vote of the
sandlot baseball players and their
followers to decide, the measure
would pass without a dissenting
vote.
In fact. almost every player or
devotee of outdoor games Is In ia
vor of the bill as 1t would give
them an additional hour in the
evening on the golf links, tennis
courts and other sport fields.
But II remained for the live-wire
saudlot ball players to start the
ball rolling in the way OF an or
-ganized movement to push" the
measure.
When the sandlotters held a
meeting last week to prepare for
the coming division championship
games. they forgot baseball for the
getting back of the bill to put
1t over"
A resolution appealing to the
fight for the bill was passed.
They are smart fellows, these
junior Milans, McGraws. ct al, and
know the value of publicity just
as well as any high price press
agents realize what space Is worth
In newspapers.
It Is not necessary to go into
details of the many advantages of
the proposed measure to the lovers
of outdoor games.
Remember how many games had
to be cut short last summer on
account OF darkness? If the day
light saving law had been in ef-
feet, almost every one OF these con-
tests could have been fought to a
finish.
Almost all of the league games
here start at 5 or Sis, or at least
they are scheduled to get going at
that time. But there is usually
a delay. AS the result the players
have about an hour and a half to
finish their fuss before dusk set
ties over the field. IL il Is a fast,
snappy game. it can so the full
nine innings.
But many of the contests had
TO be cut short along about the
sixth or seventh inning last sea-
son. especially the championship
series during the fag-end OF the
year.
with an additional hour Of day
light, nine-tenths of the games
could have gone the full nine in
nings or longer in case It was neces-
sary.
The physical advantages to the
athletes must also be considered.
II would give hundreds Of young
fellows an extra hour on the ath-
letic field and they need IT. Hun
dreds of them are confined indoors
in offices and stores during the
day and have little time for re-
creation.
Consider these advantages.

Epiphany Juniors piled up this sea-
son in ripping through the 110-120
pound class. This Juvenile club
won thirty-fve out of thirty-six
games, dropping one to the Circles,
17-16, when two of the regulars
were out of the lineup.
We have the word OF almost
the whole squad that the team
does not use . signal of any
kind. Some scoff at the asser-
ton, but nevertheless, IL is
true II we arc to believe the
youthful performers and they
do not appear to be OF the type
who would tell nm untruth in
speaking of their record.
The other night the boys breezed
into the sporting department with
their box score of a game played
over at Alexandria when they gave
the Orioles of the latter place their
first lacing in two years. The
youngsters started a buZzing bee
on basketball and one of them in
referring to another team said:
II uses 100 many SlBndlS
This remark brought out the fact
that the Epiphanys have gone
through the entire season without
judging by their record, they do
not play the old army game of
shooting at anytime from any angle.
From all reports, the youngsters
flash a pretty brand Of teamwork.
1t is hard to believe that a team,

may be that the players are natural

big enough to hold a basketball.
They were pupils at the Thomson
school where they first took up
basketball. All of the boys are
members of the Sunday School
class taught by Thomas Spence.
The signalless Epiphany team
furnishes more food for thought.
Perhaps it Is better to play without
signals, rather than jam the whole
works by using too many codes
and signs, especially with young
teams.
Take these midget and junior
teams, for instance. In most cases
they are "over coached" One
supposed basketball expert tells
them one thing and another tells
them something else. The young
sters have their brains crammed
with a dozen different sets of sig
nails which they try to remember.
