With the quoit league drawing to . close and only one more intra-city club match remaining, one could not help but notice the genuine warm friendliness and excellent sports manship that this game has pro- noted among the members. For any Holy Name Club or any other or ganization that is looking for an addition to its sports program Quoits Is certainly to be recommended.
 VolIey ball has taken foot hold up at the club these warm August nights. Old men, young men, and middle-age men all take 8 hand in attempting to slap the ball across the net and it is amazing at the alacricity that some of the old-timers display. Outside of a few sore muscles and the loss of weight by several members, volley ball has succeed ed in stimulating interest among the younger fellows and 1t is pleasing to note the number that turn out every night to take their turn at whacking the small in- Hated sphere.
 Althoug the church festival, that takes place next week beginning Wednesday has been chief topic for discussion during the past week the Conn-Pastor fight in New York tonight also came in for few nouns and verbs of the non-too- -flattering variety. In fact, Pen McDonough remarked after reading one of Pas tors build-ups that if he was any good at ancient history he would be able to remember Pastors last vic- tim by the knockout route. However, It won't be any surprise if any mem Der has a difdcult time in securing seat around the club radio tonight at 10 p. m.
 Along with other notices and communication it has been an- -onnced by Father Donnelly, chaplain that during the carnival the club will be closed Wednesday through Saturday.

From Maritime, 81

Chuck Redick's scheme Of split
ting up the 30 teams in The Star
sponsored Government match play
golf tourney is working out all right.
Long before the season got under
way Redick, director of the tourney,
foresaw the need of splitting the
teams into two divisions, one to play
for the championship, and the other
to play for the Glass B title. He
also provided that the top teams in
Glass B may go into Glass A next
year.
The first engagements in Class B
have been played with Patent Office
winning from National Archives at
Woodmont to 2, and Public Build

Steiner, Fisher Again

In Central Win
Former Clouts, Letter
FIushy on Slab in 81
Rout Of Anucostiu

The clicking combination of Gen.
trail Highs Shortstop Benny Steiner
and Pitcher Bill Fisher, chiefly re-
sponsible for the vikings lofty perch
atop interhigh baseball standings,
continues to demonstrate why the
pair is being wooed by major league
clubs.
Steiner and Fisher, who recently
received and accepted an invitation
to work out with the Tigers at De-
troit next month, already have been
eyed and desired by President Clark
Griffith and Manager Bucky Harris
of the Mats, while the Boston Red
Sox also are in the bidding. In
the meantime, though. the pro-
ducing pair are propelling Central
toward the inter high title.
Gives Lone Hit, Fans Nine.
Fisher worked only five innings
yesterday as Central spanked Ana
costa, 9-1, for its third straight
interhigh victory, but over that
stretch the youthful right-hander
allowed only one hit and famed
nine. Charley Kligman, who labored
the first four innings and left the
mound holding a 61 lead, received
credit for the triumph.
Steiner continued his spectacular
batting, blasting two triples and a
home run, batting in four runs and
producing the fielding gem OF the
game on Joe Soresi's sizzling
grounder in the sixth.
Anacostia enjoyed a 10 lead en-
tering the third inning, but Central
tied it up in that session and chased
five runs across in the fourth.
Di Blast Gets Three Hits.
Sam Di Blasi also collected three
hits for Central. while Gene Num-
nally led Anacostia's six-hit attack
with a brace of safeties.
Central and Western, which has
won two games in interhigh compe-
tition, remain the only undefeated
clubs in the series. They will meet,
doubtless to settle the champion
ship, on May %, at Central Stadium.

Western Pinned for Eastern
After Defeating E EpiscopoI;
Wilson and Riders Bow

Western Highs baseball team,
which Is nursing a fond hope OF
spilling the prohibitively favored
Central outfit in the interhigh series,
today was awaiting another series
test with Eastern Friday at Western
Stadium after continuing its win
ming habit yesterday by disposing of
Episcopal. 81, at Alexandria.
Snatching an .early lead and
clinging tenaciously to it down the
stretch, Western survived Episcopal
rallies which produced four runs in
the second inning and three more
in the sixth, Lietch's relief hurting
in the last two innings checking the
Maroon's bid for victory.
Jim Malarkey and Lietch each
contributed three hits to Westerns
attack, with Joe Withers and Ray
Wrenn smashing two safeties each.

The Browns are gone from
Grifflth Stadium for a while and
from the Nationals viewpoint it's
all right. The Browns, accord
ing to Mr.. Grifith's boys, are the
most improved club they've seen
so far.
incidentally, vendetta has been
declared between the Mats and
Browns. Sid Hudson, the rookie
pitcher, was nicked for a home
run and a terrific double by
Johnny Berardino the first two
times the Browns third sacker
walked to the plate. 1t then was
suggested that Sid start busting
Johnny of. Sid did so the next
two times Berardino came to bat
and he famed both times.
And there was Gee Walker, the
Mr.. Hero of the fracas. When
the Mats had the bases loaded
and nobody out in the tenth,
Walker banged into Catcher Bob
Swift so hard while being forced
at the plate that Swift had no
