Robins will win the National league
pennant this year.
Wright, commenting on the teams

II not better than any team in the
league. His only doubts concerned
the pitchers. whereupon Miller, the
pitching expert. Immediately said
the Robin hurlers would be even
stronger than usual, and that pre-
diction, If realized, means quite some
pitching.

Led by the Christmas
Spirit. They ReiOiced


g ITTING before a blazing fire
~ and listening to the merry ca
rollers without, Martha Barrons
felt all the joy of tie Christmas
season. What a wonderful time it
was! She smiled happily at her
husband and son. Then her
thoughts went back to that memo
rable Christmas years ago when
something had led her steps to the
Beacon Baby home. Again she
looked into the eyes of a blue-eyed
baby and felt that sudden desire to
have him for their own. George
had readily agreed to the adOp-
tion. Bless his heart, he would
have agreed to anything to make
her happy. But the baby had
brought him happiness, too. He
was now one of the ablest lawyers
in town and had recently attracted
attention in winning Il
complicated case. And the love
and comradeship he had given
them through the years was as
deep and fine as If he had been
their very own.
Truly, Martha Barrons thought,
as the voices Of the carolers faded
into the night it was the spirit of
Christmas that had directed her
steps on that long-ago Christmas.

ing. Faced with the mathemati'
cal chance Of winning the first
half banner Of the Government
League, the Lowery-managed team
is doing its utmost to accomplish
that feat.
Yesterday one more of the OBJ
stacles in it's path was thrown
aside in the Interstate nine which
was defeated, 8 to 8, in a loosely
played game. The Typos have
two more contests to play in the
postponed list on the books. One
with Naval Hospital tomorrow
and one with Interstate Eext
Wednesday.
TomOrrow's settO with
Naval Hospital viii be the
biggest test. The GObs, lead
erg in the race with six vic.
tories against three losses,
can make tomOrrow's game
hardly important by winning
today against G. p. o. which
IL plays. A loss will benefit
the Typos no little.
And before anyone forgets, a
G. P. Q. victory today over the
Gobs will put the Shomo-managed
team in the running again as at
this moment its percentage rec
ord is the, same as the Union
Printers-five games won ana
five lost. =,
Even should Naval Hospital
lose today it will have two more
games to play which is an ad-
vantage none Of the others have.
Navy Yard is scheduled next
Monday in addition to the Union
Printers tomorrow.
Frankly the going is 50
close in the entire league that
hardly anybody knows what
it is all about. Every team
can be said to be in the race,
even Navy Yard which is in
last place, all of which Is
situation very seldom seen in
sandlOt circles.
Probably a list of the remain
ing games to be played in the
postponed group might throw a
little more light on the subject
and enable players and fans to-
gether to figure out in their own
way just who they think has
chance to win and who will, etc.
