When these teams last met, the Hill
tops upset the dope by turning in a
7-to-1 victory. Blackie Ellwood, Hill
top hurting ace, who was responsible
for the Typos beating, probably will be
called on to repeat today Simons,
Norman Hutchison, Pound or Heinie
Webb will be assigned the mound job
Tor the Printers. Each team packs
considerable punch at the stick and
the opposing hurlers will be in for a
tough assignment.
Rialto and ST. Joseph mines, rivals in
section A of the Potomac series, will
be opponents in their deciding tilt at
l O'Clock at the Plaza. After this
match. the st. Joseph nine intends to
game starting at o'clock on the
grounds at Eighteenth and B streets
southeast The st. Joseph diamond
athletes will have their hands full, for
both the Rialtos and the Comforters
are worthy opponents.
RanSdell players will tackle the Ten
leytown Athletic Club at $50 o'clock
at the Washington Barracks for the
right to meet the Eastern Athletic AS
sociation unlimited team next Sunday
FOR the award in section c of the Po-
Comac loop. Coyle or Augustine are be-
ing counted upon to hurl for the Rams
dell combination.
Competition has been so keen in the
Independent series that three teams
now are deadlocked for first place but
after today'S matches the standings
probably will be different. Arlington,
the Knicks and the Shamrocks are lead
ing the race. Today's card is attrac-
tive.
Cherrydale Athletic Club, weakened
by the loss of several of its stellar
performers, is trailing in the series. but
it hopes to take the measure of the
Maryland Athletic Club on the latter's
grounds. The game will start at 8
o'clock as well as the other three
matches.
Knickerbocker tossers will strive to
advance at the expense of the Petworth
Athletic Club in the Georgetown Hol-
low. Buck Grier's Petworth nine should
bear watching, too, for last Sunday il
administered a severe beating to the
formidable Dominican Lyceum combi
nation. Chase is likely to draw the
mound assignment for Petworth and he
probably will be opposed by Ross Fish
er of the knicks.
The most spirited match. however.
should result in the Dominican
Lyceum Mohawk match at Union
Park. The Hawks aim to come back
and they are apt to use Finney Kelly
on the mound today. The Lyceum
nine still is smarting under the de-
feat it received from Petworth.
Mickey Mcconnell or Grazzini are due
Dominican Lyceum. Both teams are
tied for second-place honors, togeth-
er with the Maryland Athletic Club.
When the Shamrocks take the field
against the Arlington Athletic Club
on the latter's grounds, base ball or
the first order should result. Willie
Glascoe, manager of the Harps. made
the statement some time ago that his
nine intends to make a strong bid
for the laurelS in the second series.
The Shamrocks are in for an inter-
esting afternoon. however, for the
Arlington Athletic Club has a bunch
| of capable tosserS.
