Like a couple of tots testing
newly constructed seesaw. the Wash
ington Eagles and Baltimore Orioles,
who alternately have sampled the
niceties of the Eastern Amateur
Hockey League lead, will battle for
that coveted perch tonight at River
side Stadium.
Twice within the past week Wash
ington has placed its paws on the
top rung of the ladder and pulled
itself into first place only to be
Smacked down. Tonight the Eagles
will shoot for the top spot again, but
even if they gain their objective
there's no guarantee they'll hold it
for more than "a hours.
Baltimore, you see, is hotter than

only one game on their own ice this
season and tomorrow night they en-
tertain the Boston Olympics, if en-
tertain is the word for it. A victory
over the Olympics, even though
Washington licks them tonight
would put the Orioles back on top,
but in a slightly less enviable posi-
ton of having played three more
games than Washington.
Orioles Hold Series Edge.
The Orioles need tonight's tiff as
much as Mussolini needs Hitler, for
currently Baltimore has played two
more games than the Eagles and the
3-point lead a victory would give
them would shift the pressure in the
sizzling stretch scrap to the Eagles.
In meeting Baltimore, the only
Eastern League club to boast a series
edge over the Eagles with five tri-
umphs, four defeats and a tie, the
Eagles will be handicapped by the
fact Defensemen Len Burrage and
Ross Knipfel are not in top shape,
although both are expected to play.
Burrage, who last week missed his
first game since joining the Eagles
last season. says he'll play despite
a broken toe on his right foot. while
Knipfel is ANXIOUS to see action
despite a badly swollen right hand.
An interesting sidelight to the
main event may be provided by
Norm Burns of the Eagles, who re-
quires only one goal to break the
Eastern League record of SO now
held jointly by Burns, Herb Foster
formerly of Atlantic City, and Norm
Calladine, an ex-Oriole.
