lust as the Industrial League
assumed the place the Ter
~ minal loop formerly held as
the king pin of sandlot
weekday circuits, so are the In
dustriaPs champions, the Con-
structioneers, assuming that repu-
tation held last year by Terminals
champ, the Pullman team, as "the
team to beat in the city series"
AS early as the middle of June sand
lot demonstrators predicted the team
that won the Industrial League cham
pionship would win the city series title.
Despite this seeming encouragement,
the Constructioneers are not taking
their rivals lightly. They realize that
rests a threat. They realize that in
Commerce, Eldbrooke and either
@. p. o. or Naval Hospital there Is
not only trio of tough clubs, but CLUBS
capable Of stepping out and winning
the flag.
The constructioneers. who on Sun
days play as the Washington Red Sox,
won both halves of the Industrial
League. After coasting in easily in the
first half they encountered unexpected
opposition in the second series in Wash
ington Terminal A tie ensued, but the
ConstructioneerS won In play-off.
In Lefty Jewett, the Industrial
Leaguers will have one OF the two
standout pitchers due to perform in the
series. Leon Riley, Commerce, is the
other Jewett, rated one Of the premier
southpaws in the city, has done most
of the twirling for the champs though
Hoffman and Usilton have taken turns
with better than average success.
Eddie Auit, former Central High
catcher, IS the first-string receiver.
George Oertel, Jack Mattingly, Charlie
Booker and Bowie form the infield, with
Hamel, jenkins and Young in the OUT
feld.
Like Pullman last year, the Construc-
tioneers not only will go into the series
as fayorites, but viii depend on the
same points Pullman did-long distance
slugging and the pitching of one
moundSman.
Now If the series only will wind up
for the Constructioneers the same way
as 1t did for last years champs, every
thing will be all right-for the Con-
structsoneers.
