" A R NJ RIVALS
IN SANDLOT
CLASH

What promises to be a grand bat
tie for Washington's most coveted
sandlot prize, the pennant In the
Independent Sandlot League, will
start Sunday when the Dominican
Lyceum and Shamrock clubs clash
at Washington barracks in the first
game Of a series OF three, con.
shutting the post-season pIay-off
between the winners of the first
and second series.
Dominican Lyceum won the first
series with eight victories and two
trimmings, and the Shamrocks
took the second with eight games
won, including two forfefts and
two lost.
The Dominican Lyceum ana
Shamrock clubs are old and
sincerely warm rivals. They fought
many hard battles IN. the indie.
pendent series Of the last several
years and in one OF their games
attracted what some authorities de-
clared to be a record crowd.
Sundays clash is expected to re-
vtve thoughts OF old times, for,
with sthe Griffmen idling and no
scoreboards to watch, the sandlot
clash will be AN attraction likely to
bring out the sandlot fans who
have been only luke warm this
season, and haye attended few
games.
While Glascoe, the ShamrocISs'
lively little manager, said today:
We've been fighting for years for
q sandlot championship and have
always been close. but never exact

title in a down-and-out series, but

Of autumn sport is the annual

AS a matter Of fact, football,
as the spectator sees it, is not at
