his luck at pitching with success.
After pitching a few games for the

Salem team. three OF which resulted In
victories. He then pitched few more
games for the locals. From here he
went to Chesapeake City, Md, and
from there moved to New Castle and
remained there until the end OF the

CHURCH LEAGUE TEAMS
IN SECOND BATTLE
Grace and Old SWedes Sched-
uled for Tonight at Y. M. C..
A.; Wolfe is Ill.

With the City League championship
settled, all eyes are centered on the
Church League championship series
now being fought at the Y. NJ. G. A.
Tonight the second game of the Grace
Old Swedes series will be staged,
starting promptly at s. McCabe and
Silverbrook will play the preliminary
game.
Grace very easily won the first game
of the Church League championship
series, 46 TO IS. but 1t is predicted
that they viii run up against an en-
tirely different team tonight In the
Old Swedes five. Tuesday night the
Swedes were not out on the floor to
win, merely to let the fans know that
they were there. Two of their play
ers were on edge for the St Mary's-
Mt. Vernon game, making II impossible
for them to give the best IN them to
the Old Swedes boys. Consequently
Grace had 4 walkover.
This will not be so tonight for the
East Siders will go on the wooden
ways tonight with but one thought in
mind. to defeat Grace. With nothing
on the minds of the players, they
should give Chambers crew one Of
the hardest fights they have had this
season. Should they not defeat Grace,
they should give a better account OF
themselves than they did in the first
game Of the series.
The Old Swedes' boys will be with
out Wolfe tonight for he is sick in
bed. but this should make no great
difference with Wallis getting the
iumD over Greenwood. Schafer,
ISmith and Marden should give a better
account of themselves in this game.
| for they were worried and on edge on
account of the controversy taking
place in the papers when they went
! into the first battle. Manager Marden
would not say who would play forward
in the place of Wolfe.
Jimmie" Chandler. the Grace pilot
said that he expected a harder fight
to win this game than he had in the
first battle, but would be ready for
lanything which might take place.
| Chandler is anxious 10 get the series
over and his men will also be in the
game to win, and they expect TO. The
Grace boys have been taking little
rest this week. with the expectation
of being in the best Of shape when
they go on the floor tonight. The
men to start the game VIII be as fol-
lows: Chandler and Cliff" Garvine,
forwards; bill" Greenwood. center;
Jack Garvine and "Clapper' Long
lacre, guards.
From all indications, and with both
teams talking nothing but victory,
this should be the fastest game in
Wilmington basketball history.
The first game between McCabe and
SIverbrook starts at s, and the most
talked of game in Wilmington. Grace
VS.. Old Swedes. goes on immediately
afterwards.
