BALANCED CIRCUIT
IS GREAT FAN LURE
Junior Loop Race Would Be
Keener With Yanks Hit
by Loss of Joe.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK, April 12.-If Joe
Dl Maggie remains aloof from the
Yankee lineup throughout the COM
Ing season, will his detection be wol th
at least sl000,000 in gate receipts to
the American League? This SEEM
1ngly paradoxical question is pro-
pounded to the writer by WELL
known Brooklyn fan.
Truth is, the question is not at all
paradoxical. It involves an economic
fact rising out of the bewildering COM
plexities of the Di Maggoi- Rupert
salary deadlock
From all around the American
League circuit come whispers that
every magnate of this organization
ana every manager, excepting. Of
course, Col. Rupert and Joe Nc
Carthy, are praying fervently that Joe
sticks to his guns and that Col Rup-
pert adheres no less steadfastly to his
position.
Perhaps the reason will occur to
any baseball enthusiast. It relates to
the absence OF Di Maggio's war club
from the Yankee batting order with
the consequence of a much tighter
pennant race in the American League
Balance Would Aid A. l..
Phil Ball once coined an epigram
that has gathered greatly increased
point in recent years.
The American League" he said
always wins the world series-but
the National League always wins the
pennant race
What he meant was that, with the
pennant in the younger association
seWed up at a comparatively early
date. interest in the race died, whereas
with several clubs fighting nip and
tuck in the National, attendance was
maintained at normal: indeed, was
marked by increase, throughout the
final two months of the struggle.
Now. normally. American League
attendance exceeds that of the Ma
tlonal; but normal conditions are
wholesomely defeated when the iden-
tlty of the pennant winning club is
practically foregone long before the
race is ended. AS matter of fact,
if Col Rupert has an eye to earn
ings, it may have occurred to him
that his own club would fare better
financially on the road if the offensive
strength of his club were to be cut
down. In such case the colonel holds
more aces in the Di Maggie affair
than Joe perhaps realizes.
Restaurant Needs Baseball.
As for Di Maggie. born of a race
of restaurateurs, he is occupying
his mind with his San Francisco
"Grotto," apparently to the exclusion
of every other thought Specializing
in sea food and bar supervised by
artistic mixers, Joe is said to be taking
in some $4,000 month. This sum,
1t is pointed out by California
commentator, about equals the sea-
sons salary which Col Rupert wants
to pay Joe.
One wonders whether the likable
young Italian realizes that the success
OF his refectory is based upon his
big league reputation and that repu-
tations have to be maintained if pos
SCISSORS thereof expect to continue to
reap financially In this connection
1t may be recalled that the day after
the late John McGraw retired from
his managerial job with the New York
Giants interest in his name as a
writer sof baseball for the press
throughout the country sagged into
almost complete indifference.

Central Scores.

Military Academy at Central Stadium,
while Washington-Lee's crack club,
victorious over Falls Church, 1915,
was to clash with Eastern, defending
interhigh champion, at Ballston, Va.
Other Games Scheduled.
ST. Adams journeyed over to Alex
andria to bump into Episcopal, while
another game found Montgomery
Blair travelling to Charlotte Hall, Md,
to meet Charlotte Hall Military
Academy.
Anacostia was to send Jack Bur-
roughs to the mound, while Coach
Carl Heintell of Wilson was to coun-
ter with Herman Byer. Wilson has
a seasoned team, but its pitching is
dubious and probably will determine
how far the Presidents will travel
in their quest for titular honors.
Washington-Lee never was in trouble
against Falls Church, as Kenneth
McQuinn, third baseman, collected
five hits in six trips to the plate,
including three doubles, and Hal
Leatherwood connected for four
safeties in five attempts.
Rozelle Is Central Star.
Central became threat in the inter.
high series off the impressive hurting

who limited the Little Hoyas to two
hits while his mates were pounding
