It has been decided to shift the scene
OF the public high school base ball
championship games the coming season
back again to the Central Stadium.
This was announced following a
meeting OF faculty advisers of the
schools yesterday. The main reason for
the decision to transfer the games back
to their former scene Is that of the
hardship 1t imposes upon the Western
team, which, it was commended, would
find it hard to get to Eastern for
game at $3.50 o'clock with school clos
ing at 3.
1t was because of the short right field
at Central that the games were shifted
to Eastern last year. 1t is known that
there also was a deal of dissatisfaction
with the left-f1eld situation at Eastern.
The running track cuts through a part
Of left field at the Lincoln Park insti-
tuition.
Single games on Tuesdays, Wednesdays
and Fridays instead of double-headers
on Tuesdays and Fridays is being consid-
cred for next Winters public high
school title series. The matter will be
left to the principals of the schools. It
must be decided within the next week
as the 1881 schedule must be drawn
within that time.

teams were to figure Central and Ray
mond Riordan School toSsers were to
