HOST TEAK HERE
Since the opening of the amateur base
ball season May 1, there have been no
less than seventy violations of the con
stitution of the amateur commission,
and grounds for some sixty-live protests
of games played.
t)f the eleven leagues under the com
mission, riot a single one has escaped
without a violation of the constitution
in that many teams are playing men
who are ineligible to play on the teams.
The contittution states explicitly that
men must be registered under the corrf-
mlssion. This, in many Instances, lis
entirely ignored by managers of teams
who have been picking- up players at
will.
,i
Teams having more than twenty play
ers reglsteied cannot use men over the
required number, yet such is done every
da.
Officials Are Informed.
Manageis, secretaries, presidents, and
officials of the leagues, have been duly
apprised of thefce facts by H. V. Shurt
leff. secretary of the commission, who
cays he is tired of being Ignored, and
is ready to quit unless something radi
cal is done with the situation.
Managers who have followed the law
are justified in protesting the games lost
by them against teams playing in
eligible men, and promises are made to
day that action will be taken in the
near future. Flagrant violations of the
constitution are daily occurrences. Play
ers are dropped by managers and played
the same day the secretary of the com
mission receives notice.
In one instance I'.e manager of a team
Has been playing on a team when fte
is not registered with the team as a
player.
In all sixty-five cames may be nro-
tested by managers if they will take the
irouuie to look them up. Secretary
Shurtleff has, in each instance of illegal
Karnes, notified the officials of the
league, and in some cases has had mat
ters straightened out at once.
Standings to Be Affected.
It would appear that games lost un
der" protest would play an important
part in the standings later in Mie sea
Bon. hile the constitutions of the dif
ferent leagues under the commission are
different in some respects, there is uni
formity in having the same number on
each learn. Theie is also uniformity in
registering under the commission, and
the matter has been taken up by the
secretary since the first offense.
Just what will be done cannot be
seen at this time, and unless changes
are made immediately trouble will be
experience before long. The only rem
edy seems to lie with the individual
managers, who should be maae to keep
blraijjh; lists and report changes im
mediately to the commission.

In the seventh inning of yesterday's
game, when Thompson retired from the
box, the Telephone team seemed to go
to pieces, and Andrews pushed five
runs across the plate before it could be
Btopped. The game went but eight in
plngs, and when called the scoie stood
U to 7 In favor of Andrews.
The game was close up to the eightn
inning and full of good plays. Per
haps the most noticeable of these was
D. Mulvey's catch of Rawlings' would
be hit. He caught the ball after a long
run Just before it hit the ground.
There were two men on bases at the
time, and neither scored, but Colston's
lucky hit a moment later scored them.
Three Andrews men were caught at
the home plate by Donn, of Telephone.
The "Canaries" took many chances on
the bases.
Both Flynn ana Thompson pitched
well. The former struck out seven
and allowed but six hits, while the lat
ter struck out ten and allowed nine
hits. Many of the hits made off Thomp
son were for extra bases, and these,
coming when men were on bases, were
responsible for many of Andrews'
runs.
There were six extra-base hits, two
of which were three-baggers. These
were made by Krau:e and Tipton, of
Andrews. Thompson and Flynn, of
Andrews, each got a two-bagger, and
Howells and Dyer, of C. and P., were
each responsible for one of the same
kind.
"Joe" Mulvey scored six of. his team's
runs, three of thee being made while
running for other men.

The present standing of the Park
View team will be equaled by Pet
worth today if confidence counts for
anything. The members of Petworth can
Bee nothing but victory as the out
come of their encounter with Takoma,
which will again place them on an even
footing with Manager May's ball
tossers. Cliff Howells, at short for Bright
wood, gave an excellent fielding ex
hibition. Most of his accepted chances
were hard-hit balls to deep short,
which he stopped near third base and
by perfect throws to first nipped the
runner.
For Park View. Miller led with the
stick, poling out three hits odt of four
times up. He also caught a pretty
game, which is in conformity with his
usual actions.
Maddox of Park View also had threft

Bureau of Engraving forfeited to Co
lumbia 101, 9 to 0, the Engravers having
but seven men on hand.
Columbia 101 had twelve men on deck
for the game and Manager Johnson
was confident of winning his first game.
His new slab artist, Caton, was slated
to pitch.
Manager Doyle, of the Engravers,
said he has four men on (he sick list.
Extraordinary circumstances perhaps
take place every day in baseball, but it
is seldom a left fielder goes through five
full games In succession without get-
ting a chalice to retire a man.
Such is
the lot accorded to "Gus" Lay,
the
premier gardener on the Commissioner
' team. Nevertheless, "Gus" has not
been idle with the willow, ns he car
ries a batting average of .231.
Another time-worn player on the Com
missioners, who preferred the local sand
lots to professional fame this summer,
has been doing some creditable stick
work for the Clerks. This Is "Al" Hand
lboe, who leads the league in batting,
with a naverage of .533 in tlvo games.
"Bill" Taylor, ihe Aloyslus center
fielder, has been putting up a stiff
game for the churchmen. During the
first series he has batted .364, and has
yet to make his first error m the gar
den. In Weaver and Suess the Columbia
printers have one of the best batteries
In' the circuit, but numerous errors In
the field have kept the pair from mak
ing a good showing on paper.
While Harry Burke, of the Commi
ssioners, holds the" strike-out tecord for
one game, having fanned ten In six in
nings, "Lefty" Wooden, of the same
team, carries the league pitching hon
ors to date, no less than twenty-six bat
ters having succumbed to his twists in
three games, averaging six innings

t
Southern got but four hits, which
were onnortune, considering the fact
that B. & O. was kind enough to mako
errors which helped.
That the games are better in view of
the changes made In the league is the
opinion of every fan. There should bo
many good games from now on, and the
league officials are to be, congratulated
on the wise move.
t
Stroble got half the hits allotted his
team. It Is seldom that this plaver can
not connect safely once or twice In a
game.
--
Car Department and Union Station
play this afternoon, and It Is expected
that, as no high school ?ame Is on th
boards, the teams will be able to get
nine full innings 1n theresult.
Both the fielding and hitting have
been off .color during the week. Results
show the league to be well stocked with
pitchers of abllitv. The fielding has been
poor, and the threp games showed no
less than thirty stolen bases recorded.
Should Car Department annex today's
game, a tie for first place will be estab
lished. Many are claiming the race will
be a close one all season. B. & O. lost
out yesterday on errors, and all games
to date have been remarkably, close.

Donough were the only cnes who were
able to find Elkins.
Neither of the Becker boys was able
to stop Eastern. There seemed to be
grim determination on the part of the
Eastern team to get the game.
There may be a holler put up as to
the eligibility of O'NIel. third baseman
for Eastern. This is the second game
O'NIel has played for Eastern, and a
pprusal of the Eastern Athletic Club
list of cllglbles falls to find O'Niel's
name. As this player has been picked
up to fill out and has played with the
District League and at the same time
will be plaved by Manager Sternes, of
tl.e Kendall Athletic Club, In the In
dependence League today, some doubt
Is expressed as to where the player will
land.
Eastern Athletic Club is being al
lowed leeway in putting players on the
team In the hope of getting a winning
combination. O'NIel has never been
registered and should he play -with Ken
dall today will not be eligible to play
for Eastern.

Unheralded and unknown except to
the president of the league, "Dutch"
Newman appeared on the field ready to
take his position behind the catcher and
umpire the game. The spectators could
hardly believe their eyes to see the
Dutchman back on the job.
Last year Dutch was the favorite of
nearly everybody on McDevltt's Field,
but the evil lnlluences of some of his
enemies, it Is said, worked him out of
the position. He certainly was wel
comed with the smile of approval from
everybody yesterday.
President Roakes is firm in his stand
that there shall be no forfeit or post
poned games because of the failure of
any team to have a full nine. National
Union, Kendall, and Shamrock are each
to suffer penalties for falling to have
teams ready to play when the game Is
called.
The contest today should bring out
the banner crowd of the season. Both
are teams that abound In young blood
and they put up the best possible ar
ticle of ball. Manager Parsley, from all
Indications, will use Greer and Ruppert
or Parker as his battery, while the Ken
dall nine have a choice of two different
batteries, Knott and Pollock or Browne
pnd Seaton.
St. Martin, since Us first victory, has
begun to put up a good game of ball.
An altogether different spirit seems to
have entered the team.
The officials have been endeavoring
under "Pop" Meyers to keep the seats
for the adults only and have the chil
dren Elt on the ground in front of the
seats. "Pop" found It a big job at first,
but he Is rapidly getting his charges
domiciled.
Altogether, St. Paul has plaved six
cames. One of the losses credited to
it will he eliminated on account of the
board of directors deciding that the
protested game between St Paul and
Kendall 'should be played over. It will
also take one of the games credited as
won from the Kendall stjlng.

After a hard-fought seven Innings of
play the Treasurers trimmed Traffic
yesterday In this circuit, score 8 to 6.
Traffic got away with a good start,
scoring four In the first inning. The
Treasurers displayed their old-time
spirit and gradually crept up on the
leaders until Chew's home run clout
put them two ahead.
As Is usual with losing teams they
put up a loud wall against the umpire.
lr. Credille had a number of close
decisions to render and to the fair
minds of outsiders he was impartial.
In the early inning he ejected Gill from
the game for abusive language, an ac
tion that Is not allowed in any league
In the city. This of course was blam
ed by Traffic for the loss of the game
To Chewy goes the honor of winning
the game, his long hits coming at a
time when they counted. In the fifth
Inning he poled out that homer with
Jones and Parker on the bags. Her
ring also rapped out a four-sacker, but
unfortunately with none on.
Crablll's playing was the feature of
the game from the Traffic viewpoint.
He handled his chances well and the
first two times up smacked out two
beautiful triples.
Maynard made one of the most sen
sational catches ever seen on the field
when In the final round he ran over
to left field foul line and nabbed a high
one from Parvcr'3 bat. Brown was on
second at the time, and had the hit
gotten away from the left fielder Traffic
would have undoubtedly scored once
more at least.
Cooke pitched a splendid game, keep
ing the hits well scattered and being
especially effective in pinches. He
fanned nine men and allowed eleven
blngles, but they came at times when
they were not needed.
Scrofula belongs to the type of diseases known as
blood poison, and is a trouble usually manifested in child
hood. It is often an inherited condition springing Trom ,
some specific disease of ancestors. Th ordinary symp
toms of Scrofula are swollen glands about the neck, sores
and ulcers on the body, scalp diseases, skin affections,
weak eyes, poor physical development, etc.
The disease being deeply rooted in tie blood, often
attacks the bones if the poison is not removed from the
circulation, and this should be seriously considered in the
case of any child who shows symptoms of having scrofulous
blood. Some persons who inherit Scrofula reach, maturity
before the trouble develops, but being -ed ir the circula

Eastern High School today is finding
considerable consolation In having es
caped last place in the championship
series, while Business holds the undis
puted possession of the tall end in the
Interhlgh School League.
These two teams played yesterday at
the R. B, Y. M. C. A. field and the game
developed Into one of the best contests
of the season. Eastern winning by 5 to,
4 after the losers had given the Capitol
HUlers the worst sort of a scare In the
final Inning. With two runs needed In
the ninth, Business made one, had an-.,
other man thrown out at the plate and1
had three left on the bases when the
final batter was retired.
There was little to choose between
Derrick and Llgon, the rival pitchers,'-
although the latter was favored by"
being backed up by the Eastern bunch j
playing more baseball than their op-
ponents.
The batting feature was Wood's home
'un drive, which gave Business Its firsts
tally, while Defandorf made a running
catch of Hunteman's long fly. x

TODAY Tenleytown. vs. Indian Office, "
Thirty-fifth street and Wisconsin avenue.
In the fastest game Of the season
yesterday Naval Medico and Corcoran
played eight innings to a tie t to 4.
The soldiers kept a three-run lead until'
the sixth, when the doctors started
clouting the ball and shoved three runs
across. The soldier boys got their other
tally in the eighth, and the students
got theirs in the seventh.
Beasley. Naval Medico, robbed Maus
of a hit which looked good for a double,
when he captured the ball from the tat
ter's bat In the fourth. The same stunt
was performed In the fifth by Kerr, N;,
M. S., of a fiy off Molllneaux's bat.
Up to the sixth the Naval hadn't mada
a tally but got next to Colllflower and
made three scores off his delivery. Wltii
a man on second Beasley clouted the
ball for two sacks and made the first
tally for his team. The next man sacrl
ficed. and the next two walked. Riter
then'hit for a single and two runs came
in. This tied the score, and the other'
talley was shoved across in the seventh.
Corcoran scored three tallies on er
rors In the first and third and the other
came In the eighth.
The batting honors were carried b
Beasley, Naval's left fielder, as he got
three doubles out of as many trips to
the bat.
Riter on the mound for the doctors"
pitched gilt-edge ball, striking out eleven
men and allowing only one walk and
seven scattered blngles.
Colllflower, for Corcoran, also pltche-l
good ball, but was wild In the latter
part of the game, and the hitting -was
heavy. He fanned seven men, walked
four and hit three.
