ULLIIUU
The Mt. Rainier tossers are in
first place in the Prince Georges
County section Of the Capital
City League and they mean to
stay there. But, and couple Of
more butts, they are faced with q
fight for the remainder Of the
way. despite the fact they hold
q two-game margin over the
nearest team at present.
Tomorrow the Hyattsville nine
is met in the first Of these hard
fights" toward the ultimate win
ming Of the championship. The
Hyattsvjlle toSSerS are old rivals,
also powerful rivals. all Of which
is to say that another Of those
big games is in store for county
fans Of the Prince Georges sec
ton.
The Mt. Rainier-Hyattsvill
game, in final words, heads the
sandlot card for tomorrow with
a capital H. The Mounts are
ready and the HyattSville tossers
have primed with the importance
stressed on the pitching selections
of both teams. Tom Mudd, main
stay Of the HyattSville club, will
be pressed into service by Man
ager Henry HiSer in an effort to
stop the Mounts, while Frank
Waple will do duty for the latter.
The game, lest We forget, Is
to be played on the Mary
land University diamond, .
neutral field decided upon by
managers of both teams be-
cause each has played on the
others field in the two
games Of the past.
Next in line as a headliner on
the sandlot program is the SakS
Clothier-St. Marys Celtics game
at Baggetts Stadium, Alexandra.
Here is a case Of a young team
trying to get ahead, meeting a
team far superior in experience
and age.
Yet one Of the best games Of
the day is expected. The SakS
have come strongly the past
month or so. In fact, they have
bowled over every opponent in
their last II starts. Such a
record is in itself record very
few teams have enjoyed this sea-
son or in several seasons.
The st. MaryS CelticS are not
going to take any chances Of be-
ing beaten by their younger op-
ponents. They mean to use their
same powerful lineup which has
won so many games this season.
Brenner, DriefuS, Kid
well, the HamiltonS. Riley. Lud-
low. Ball and others. The last
named, Ball, is slated to pitch.
The Saks plan to use Sanford
Ross, bespectacled pitcher. who
has done excellent work during
their winning streak. Dick MOTH
erShead, pitcher. manager aud
strategist, will be in reserve.
Dick would like to start
the game but his arm has
felt the strain Of his teams
winning streak 50 much Of
late that he has had orders
from the doctor to lay off for
awhile.
The Howard A. French and Sill
yer, Spring Giants hook up in
what should be an interesting
pair of games on the Silver
Spring diamond. Yes, q double
anad Manager Brooke
Grubb, Of the Giants, finally has
two pitchers on his roster who
can show up for .double-headers.
Milburn and StimSon will prob
ably get the call against Lyon
and Colliflower for the Trenches.
Manager Bill FleSter has signed
q new catcher, Charlie Doffle-
myer, to take the place Of Fee
Collins, recently grabbed by the
Dixie Pigs, and Charlie will take
his place behind the bat in both
games for the first time with his
new team.
This DOffIemyer, by the
way, can hit and field both.
In the Terminal League, Off
cial averages show he led the
batters Of the first half
schedule and also had . nifty
fielding mark behind the bat.
Good old Charlie.
