1t is opinion that in the next thirty years
the population of the District of Columbia viii be
at least one million persons with contiguous
population in Maryland and Virginia of a half
million. In 1920 the population of the District Of
Columbia, as given by the census, was 437 600 In
August of last year had the Census Bureau
of the United States give estimate of the
population as of July /, 1924 and that 4S7 900.
It is matter of arithmetic therefore, TO
establish the fact above set forth. While
continuation of this growth at the present rate
would show a population of 5000 at the end Of
thirty years, 1t is the opinion of the Merchants
and Manufacturers Association that after thirty
years population will be million.

MATTY WANTS ID
 SIGN 'RED' GRANGE
Would Give Him Chance il He
 Can Play Baseball
ny The Assssistsd rrssA

New York, Jan. 5. VI christy Mathewson, president of the Boston Braves, would like to sign Red Grange, gridiren wonder of the uni- vsrsity of Illinois. if the football star "can play baseball" During the recent minor league conclave at Hartford, the former Giant pitcher asked several mid-Westcrn magnates f Grange could play the game,
 .I'd like to take type of an athlete like Grange and teach him professional baseball" Matty said. "one of the game's greatest pinch- hitters was literally made into 8 baseball star on his football reputa- tien. I refer to Harry (Moose) Me- eormick, former Giant player, who was a grldiron star at Bucknell when ] matriculated there, He never played baseball until they needed 9 hitting outfielder and then Mc- cormick was drafted and taught the game while performing in right field for his college team, He de- veloped into dangerous hitter and gradually learned to rove the out field, although he never became a fielding wonder"
 Mccormick was one of the first major Ieague players to specialize in pinch Hitting the art of driving out the hit that means victory. He was with the Giants ten years ago snd on rare occasions appeared in right field.
 Many college football players, such as Frank Friseh, Eddie Collins and Les Mann, have earned great regulations in the diamond sport, but others among them Jim Thorpe, Hlnkey Hines and Glenn Killinger, have failed to qualify.
 John Levi, an Indian, who has gained note through. his gridiron ability, will be tried in the Tanks outtield this spring.

 Cling to League Lead
mediate League Standing

The Panthers still lead the Boys club Intermediate league, but their one game margin Is still insufficien, to allow them to think they have a strangle hold on tho American Le- zion cup offered to the winning team in the circuit. Saturday after noon's games were fast and close, with guarding being. as usual, more in evidence than shooting.
 Harmopies still Losing
 The Harmonies, for the sixth time in row, lost after having put up, Q good fight and having led at tho eud of tho first half. This team always sets out determinedly, but weakens in the third quarter and continues its unbroken run of losses. At any rate, it is the most consistent tean, in the league. The game Saturday was q WOW. In the first half the Harmonies held the Creseents to 3 points while gathering 6 for them- selves, but in the second half the Crescent machine got under way and the score was soon tied,
 The game became rough and Ref cree Aronson had 10 call fouls with great frequency, With two minutes to go the count deadlocked, Stanley Renock fouled Kramer. and the lat ter made good both tries from the foul line. Gordon then hacked al young Tony Kerelejza, and Tony eveped the score again by sinking both tries. Kramer sent his team ahead with another ene.pointer af' ter having been fouled by Lipman At the last instant Gordon was again detected fouling Kerelejza, but the strain proved too much and the lat ter failed in both essays from the free-throw strip.
