of the Hagerstown Braves, has an
nounced that Dutch Dorman, the
field manager, has been resigned
for the 1851 season.
Dutch did a fine job with the team
last year and had it not been for
some bad breaks in the latter part
of the season he would have brought
his team home on top. AS it was, he
finished the season in second place
and got in the final playoffs-not a
bad record in any mans league.

AS you know, the New York
Giants, who own the Trenton Giants,
are moving out of Trenton and will
take their team to Sunbury, where
they have leased the stadium for
three years, with an option to pur-
chase it at the end of that time.
There has been a rumor going
around for some time that the Giants
would sell their Trenton Franchise
to local interests and understand
that this has been done, and that the
new Trenton entry in the league will
probably have working agreement
with the Philadelphia Athletics.
$50
1t has also been rumored that the
Philadelphia Phillies will move their
team from Wilmington, but so far it
has got no farther than the rumor
stage.
AS secretary of the Interstate
Sportwriters' & Broadcasters' Asso-
citation l will be in Harrisburg on
Monday for the fall meeting of both
the league and our association, and l
have no doubt that before the day is
over we will know exactly what is
going to take place in both Trenton
and Wilmington. So you can look
in this column next week for the
complete story.
So
Congratulations to Paul Macy,
president of the Washington County
Baseball League, for arranging for
the play-offs to be held in allegiance
until next spring.
Asking the boys to play baseball in
the kind of weather we are getting
now could have serious results and
his decision shows the sound judg-
ment of the league president and he
should be commended by everybody
Although the Hagerstown Hubs
outplayed the City College of Balti-
more eleven on Friday afternoon
they were unable to cash in on sew
eral scoring opportunities and had to
be satisfied with 1913 tie.
The game, played on a chilly after
noon in Baltimore, saw the Hubs
score before the first quarter hardly
got started Hagerstown kicked of
to Baltimore to open the game ano
when the safety man fumbled, Joe

Baltimore 24-yard line. Two ground
plays moved it to the II, from where
Johnny Ramer went round right enc
for the score. Smith kicked the extra
point and the score was 10 Hagers

recovered a Baltimore tumble on th'
Hagerstown 46-yard line. Led by
CLANCY and Ramer the Hubs, on ;
series of ground plays, carried tt
Baltimore's 26 as the quarter ended
Then in the second play Of the sec
ond quarter Ramer passed to Wolf,
on the Baltimore 10 and he ran tn
rest of the way for the I'd. A baC
pass from center ruined the attemp
for the extra point and the score wa

The Baltimore City boys cam
roaring back, however, when Whed
bee, one of City Colleges speed
backs, took Ramer's punt on his owl
47-yard line and ran it back
yards to the Hubs "a. Ground play
moved the ball to the yard lin
from where Crowther crashe
