The problem of a baseball sched- iule on Sunday afternoon in Wash ington park, settled several times, cropped up again last evening to harass the members Of the park commission. The commission in the carly part of the season granted to the Holy Cross baseball team the right to use the park. The Holy Cross players had hardly gotten uu- der way when members of the Bur ritt A. c. appeared on the scene and asked for their share of the use of the grounds.
 After several weeks of see-sawine back and forth between the two teams the park commission finally took matters in hand and arbitrarily laid out a schedule for the two teams.
 This settled, the commissioners heaved sigh of relief. when with out warning the Sacred Heart team protested.
 Valentine Gaj, manager of the Sacred Heart team, attended a meet ing of the park board last evening for discussion of the subject It was decided that for the last time there will be a revision of the schedule. The managers of the three teams and any other teams which may want to play ball there during the season must get togeth- CT and arrange a schedule which must be filed with the park depart ment not later than Friday of this week. The board then will indicate it's approval. Failure to do this will mean that next Tuesday evening at
