Redman wild, probably will bring
about this condition, temporarily, at
least, this afternoon, to some 5000
or more civilized fans who will
gather at College Park to see Mary

battle that may go a long way to-
ward deciding the American college
championship.
/ Both st. Johns and Maryland have
come through five games undefeated
and the temporary bleachers just
behind Byrd stadium on the present
field are expected to be inadequate
to handle the crowd today The game
win begin promptly at $3.50 o'clock.
/ Charlie Dodson will be out of the
Maryland lineup today due to an old
injury but his place will be filled by
AL Heagy. Dodson is recognized as
one of the best defense men in the
country but the shifting of the Old

expected to leave 1t in first class
strength.

Evans and Ferris Thompson,
scoring aces Of the two rivals,

A side issue of interest will result
in the meeting Of rival home-run
kings.
Babe Ruth, the American
Leagues official fence buster.
will engage Spencer Harris,
1928 rOund.trip king Of the
American Association. when the
game gets going,
Harris last year carried off the
majority of the associations slug
ging honors while with Mime
apolis, and at the present time is
bidding for the center field call
with Washington.
Having replaced Sam West in his
present location, Harris will be
given every opportunity to play
regularly with the Griffmen and is
determined to make the most Of
his opportunity.
Though the distance from the
home plate to the American League
fence may prevent a continuation
of his circuit shots this season,
Spencer still connects squarely with
the ball, and is always dangerous
at the bat.
Too. he covers lot of territory, 10
good Judge of fly balls has an ac-
ceptable arm and is smart on the
bases.
Questioned regarding Harris
stay in his present position,
Manager johnson wastes few
words.
Spencer is a good ballplayer, he
says, go you never can tell. We're
out to win games and if Harris clicks
he may stay in there.
I'm out to give every player the
chance he deserves and Harris GER
tainly will get his. / consider West
a great prospect but he'll have TO
keep fighting for his job. AS said
before, Harris is good ballplayer." :"
