ly is champion of the Washington
Amateur League today by virtue
of a decisive victory over the
Knights of Columbus team, score
80 to %. There appears to be
little likelihood of Aloysius being
beaten out for the pennant.
Carroll Hayes, manager of the
Aloysius team, wishes to make it
clear that his team is not trying to
dodge the American Legion quint
in the city championship scrap.
I'VE offered the Legionnaires two
dates on our schedule earlier in
the season." says Hayes.
Both were turned down by Man.
ager Swan. Later we scheduled
them for February IS, but were
forced to cancel the contest for the
very reason that it conflicted with
theatrical party given by the club.
"Just as soon as we conclude our
series with the Yankees the Legion
naires can have any two dates they
may name"
Charles w. Swan. the Legion
manager, is apprehensive that Alloy
sius and the Yankees will not con-
clude their series until such late
date that some of his leading per-
formers will be unavailable. He
sought a game with Aloysius to be
played between the first Augustus
Yankee game. March 2, and the sec
ond, March 10.

from Alabama, Riggs Stephenson.
You'll probably see him assault
the walls out at the ball yard to-
day. Who's going to work
Walter? ?"
And that explains how we met
Louis Guisto and Riggs Stephen
son.
Henry, who knows everybody Of
any account in Cleveland, marched
the three of us in to view the new
Hanna Theater and then over
across Euclid avenue to see and
admire the remarkable Allen and
Ohio theaters. B. F. Keith's is
the only Washington theater that
at all resembles any one of these
three new Cleveland houses.
Can't tell yet about the new Keith
house in Cleveland. 1t wasn't
completed when we were last
there.

May PLAY Oftener.

ATOW McInnis has gone the
~ way Of all flesh. Louis
~ Guisto, the big, laughing
lad with the gas-torn lungs, may
play oftener this season, even if
he has to share the duties around
first base with our old friend,
Turkey Brewer.
Guisto is a right-hand hitter.
Brewer slaps them from the other
side. 1t is possible that iris
Speaker means to alternate those
lads on that bag, the Californian
facing the southpaws, the Vir-
ginian the orthodox singers.
1t has been a long wait for
the big fellow. Many another
would have grouched himself off
the club before now. But not
that big fellow. He has a fund
of philosophy.
Guisto felt he was good enough
to play regularly. But he also
knew he lacked experience. He
sat on the bench and watched the
graceful Doc Johnston perform,
trying to learn something. Iyt
did not complain.
Later, when he found Cleve-
land atmosphere torture for his
poor lungs, he went like a man
to President Dunn and received
permission to go to California.
There he recovered, and today he
looms up as the successor of
Jack McInnis, though he may
have to share his work with
Brewer for a while.
Henry Edwards may have been
absolutely right when he said
Guisto was going to be the great
est first baseman in the major
leagues some day. He may be
starting upon his career this
year.
But few players have had the
long row to hoe given him by
the immortal gods.
