FIRE KEEPS HOT
IN GOVT. LOOP

Inc lire Keeps raging IN Cne
Government League. And. in
stead of it being in hand by this
time, more fuel has been thrown
INTO the flames to complicate mat
ters more than before.
Yesterday. the last-place Navy
Yard team defeated Government
Printing Office, 8 to /, to knock
that team out of first place and
automatically move Naval HoSpi-
tai to the top And. to add to
that, Manager Pop Shomo is per-
turbed about everything that has
happened so far in the first-half
schedule.
If his team had won yeSter-
day, matters might have been
all right. AS it is. things are
just the opposite, with neither
he or nobody else able to
throw any light on the sub
ject.
1t seems it all hinges around
the Union Printers game his G.
P. o. nine played at the start of
the first-half schedule. Shomos
team was defeated that day. but
the printers used an ineligible
player, Dewhirst, who was found
to have played with the Big Print
Shop, in the Industrial League,
prior to that time.
In the protest that followed.
Shomo gained the decision in
that the game would be played
over. According to the rules of
the weekday leagues, no player
can participate in two leagues.
Dewhirst played with Big Print
Shop in the Industrial League
ignorant of the rule.
Now ShOmO feels that he
should be awarded the game
instead of having to play g.
over. The gate has been
listed next Tuesday. In the
decision to play the game
again there was a clause that
both teams use the same
line-ups that appeared in the
first con est between the two.
Government Printing Office is
handicapped by this clause as
three of its players of that day
are on the sick list, namely.
SimonS, first baseman; Schneider,
catcher. and Lawson, outfielder.
No other players can participate
according to the clause.
All of which means that
G. P. o. will have to forfeit OF
take a chance of playing with a
crippled lineup as several SUP
stitutes were injected into the
protested fray. Shomo says that
he does not intend to play the
game. If the league continues to
schedule the game, he will with
draw altogether from play.
An embarrassing situation.
Brother Hood, president of
the league. is awaited for
final action.
But on with the fight. Today
Naval Hospital plays the Union
Printers. A fine opportunity for
the Gobs to forge ahead in the
race, maybe never to be caught
for the remainder of the first
half. The Union Printers are in
fourth place with two more games
tn go, one with Interstate next
Monday ana the supposed pro-
tested game to be played Tuesday,
with G. p. o. Winners in both
cf these games in addition to
today's will bring them to the
wire.
On with the battle, boys.

st. Patrick, so legend has it, met
with such opposition from Druid
priests when he tried to introduce
Christianity into Ireland, that he
was forced to curse their fertile
lands so they became dreary boys;
to curse their rivers SO they would
not produce fish: to curse their very
kettles so they not boil, and, finally.
to curse the Druids themselves so
the earth opened up and swallowed
them. And that is the legendary
reason why Ireland is such a sterile,
arid land.
Another quaint tale of st. Patrick
explains his immemorial connection
with the national flower, the sham
rock. When he was preaching the
doctrine of the trinity to the pagan
Irish, he used this plant with three
leaves upon one stem to illustrate
the holy mystery of three in one.
