IN SABBATH
GAMES

August means but one thing for
the sandlotters. That Of getting
down to business for q final spurt
towards the better ending Of their
campaigns.
Tomorrow's program is not as
pretentious as usual. but the sew
eral teams in action will enter
their games with the above-men-
toned idea with SIRE spirit and
concentration.
The Saks Clothiers, for instance,
play the Vienna Fire Department
nine at Vienna, Va. Here will be
q case Of q team concentrating on
an attempt to finish its season in
a glorious rush after having
gained a prominent record for
itself by its games and victories
to date.
The Saks were stopped after
q 17-game winning streak last
Sunday by the st. Mary's Gel
tics. Tomorrow they mean to
start on another streak
against the Firemen, which
they hope will carry to large
figure proportions by the end
Of the season.
The Majestic Radio tossers
carry along the same aim. Their
record for the season has not
been as impressive as the SakS
hut they're in there every day
now trying to finish the year
with a commendable list OF vic
tories. The Majestics play the
Hume Springs toSSerS tomorrow
at Hume Springs.
Just sparse schedule repre-
sentS the Capital City League
activity for tomorrow but the
teams in most every instance will
have as their aim, the better
ending of campaigns which will
not look half bad to them in
the won and loss column at the
termination of the season.
Two interesting contests
are on tap in the District
unlimited section Of the
Capital City League. The
st. JOSephs play the Bur-
roughS tOssers on the Bur-
roughs Field and the COlun-
bia Heights and FOxalIS mix
on the FOxalI diamond, both
games at o'clock.
The st. Joes received an un-
expected setback recently when
a game was taken away from
them by Capital City League Off
cials in an upheld protest filed by
the Woodmen Of the World nine.
This setback does not throw
them out Of the race, however,
but it does make their task
harder of overhauling Columbia
Heights, leaders in the race.
The Takorna Tigers and Chevy
Chase Grays play the feature in
the Montgomery county section
of the league. The Tigers will
be up against their last obstacle
in their path to the pennant. A
victory and the flag will be
clinched, a loss and the Bethesda
Firemen will have to be beaten
for the title.
The Tigers, with the exception
of the 5O-run day they had with
the Kensington Firemen, have
had an exceptionally hard fight
in keeping the upper hand this
season, as all Of the teams in the
race have played their hardest
when against them. The Grays
are expected to furnish no excep-
ton tomorrow.
Mt, Rainier and Bowie clash
In the Prince Georges feature
ON the Mt. Rainier diamond
ut 3 o'clock. The Mounts can
strengthen their lead in the
race no little by a victory, as

tiOn.
