POST-SEASON GAMES
DRAWING ATTENTION
Season Rapidly Approaching Point Where Teams
Can Be .Very Nearly Placed in the Positions
They Will Finish.
IIY JOHN II. IIOOPKlt, JIl.
The mnnagers and players In nil 1
leagues are beginning to talk post?
season names, and are all expecting to]
bo participants In these events,
Tho post-iicunon sorlcs la a new tea- i
turo In nrnntour baseball In this city, !
and should prove a large drawing card
when these games are played.
Tho object of the swtes Is to deter- ,
mlno tho championship of the city and
to decide which team shall bo a par- !
tlclpant In tho Intercity series with j
Washington. Last year there wns no
Stich series played on account of the j
weakness of the other leagues, but this
season It is a dlffcrehttproposltlon al-i
together, as there urn two leagues of
tho same calibre, and while many of
tho followera of tho i?apltal City j
Jeaguo will tell you that this league
Is sure to produce the winner, there
Is always tho doubt, which must be
rounted in nil baseball doings, and as
the Old Dominion League Is to be by
no means frowned down, the fans may
expect some Interesting gamea at tho
end of the season.
Whllo the Amateur Commission has!
no law or rule to tho offeet. It would I
be a good Idea for them to adopt rules
In connection with tho post-sea
r-'-rles, whereby the wtnners In Class
"D" leagues should play the tall-endcrs
In Class "A" l?agues, and, If they could
sufceed In winning from the higher
class teams the lower class teams
should ho plar.-rl In these leagues and
the losers tnke their place In the
league of lower clasBlllcatlon. This
would Introduce n plan of promotion
from the lower leagues to the higher
leagues, and should add much to the
Interest of the game and create* a much
keener rivalry between tho teams of
nil leagues.
Tho teams In the several lea trues are
about setting the stride which they
will keep up for tho rest of the season, '
and tho following Is about tho way
the onfeotne looks at present, although
baseball 1h a mighty treacherous prob?
lem, and things turn cut exactly oppo?
site from the way in which even the
best of sports writers prophesy.
The Battle Axo put another nail in
the lid on the box which holds thu
pennant In tho Capital City Lcaguo
yesterday when th*y defeated tha
Grays at Broad Street Park. The
Champions seem to be having thi.-igs
their own way, although they have not
cinched tho race by any means yet.
Next Saturday they play the strong
Collegians a double-header at Byrd
Park, and In all probability these
games will practically ? decide t S
.?hampIonshJp race in the Capital C'ty
League.
The Collegians, should they lose both
games next Saturday, seem to ho a
bafe bet for second honors, while
t.iere Is chance for the Grays. South?
ern Bell or Ashland to land at tho
bottom of the rirst division.
In the Old Dominion I^eaguo them
ftctne to be a chance for f'vo out of
the six teams In the league wln-tng
the pennant, with the odds on Barton
Heights, Tylers and Kahns. Tho Coca
1 las seem unwilling to part with tho
Collar position. letting Horace S.
Wright and Woodall & Quarles fight
for tho honors of fourth and fifth.
In the Htchmond League. Burk &
Co. appear to huvc a runaway race,
while tho American Cloth'ng Co.,
Cherry Smath and Jacobs & Levy are
fid for second place, w'th tho Hlll
sidera at their h .-els. Tho Imperials
appear to feel comfortable In tho last
line of the UsL
There are four possibilities for frit
honors In the Central League, namely,
the Harpies, Cubs. Giants and Hustlers.
The Ramblers and Pathfinders are out
of the race altogether.
The Packers and West find League*
have only played two or three games.

.Notes of I'lai'M and Player?.
Doctor Parker, manager of the Bat
tlu Axe. has released that old reliable
.short stop. Charlie Doggct. Chat lie
will certainly be missed from the llti'v
up of the "Champs," as he has been
one of tho mainstays of the Infield for
the lust three or four seasons, and
his true wing bus been tho death of
many a runner seeking a haven of
safety on tho Initial sack. Charlie ex?
pects to sign a Southern Bell contract,
us bin release Is unconditional, nnd ho
la free to sign wherever ho can secure
a job. It is'n cinch to say that he
will not get out of the Capital City
League.
C, Dowden was buck In the game for
the 0rays yesterday In the game
against the Battle Axe at Broad Street
Pnrk, nnd wus about as fast, if not
faster, than he has ever shown before.
"L'.ttlo Tanne," as Dowdon is better
known to the fans, will be sure of a
place In the regular line-up of the
team from now on. according to Man?
ager Van Pelt.
Li o Whltlleld was the star bat-man
iioi ine Champions yesterday, securing
two singles and two doubles out of
live trips to the plate.
The capital city League magnates
arc ccrta'hly n hunch to bo feared. A
druggist at the head of the league,
three doctors, u lawyer, an insurance
man and a telephone man compose the
managerial staff.
The Old Dominion has about the
bcrt staff of umpires ever seen on
ntnutcur lots. They would make n
great hit in the state League about
now. if reports are true nbotit the
uraps in that league.
The time is near at hand when F.'ile
16 of the playing seoson rules of the
Amateur Commission will go Into ?f
fe,t. This rule Is as follows: "So
Harnes shall be added to the l'st of
eligible players on any team under this
commission by transfer, trade or oth
: erwlso after July is of any year."
Managers, get busy and sign all the
i players you may need and make ?11
? trades nr.d transfers that you may
I desire to make as soon as possible.

In the Wake of the Game
By Gus Malbert
Yes, Stephen, they aro reporting a
bumper crop ol "I-told-you-so's" this
season.
Full many a white hope Is horn to
blush unseen, but It remained for
Jack Flynn to come from beneath tho
bushes, loso Identity as a fourth-rater
nnd tret Into action with tho original
human gorilla, "KM Arthur Johnslng,
with tho diamond In his tooth.
For tho benefit of the reputations of
all of thoso energetio and ambitious
young men who make their living tiy
predicting what Is going to happen,
so that they may have a follow story
telling why It didn't happen, it might
bo well to remark that tho result of
that mulcting game, recently operated
nt I.R3 Vegas, N, M., was what It was.
If Flynn ever had a chanco to win
tho man who discovered It Is about as
prominent as Doc Cook, who departed
ninny, mahy years ncono.
Ad Wolgast Is tho latest bruiser
with a reputation who can speak of
that asset In the past tense. Whether
I It was Wolgast's fault, or whether tho
j refereo was suffering from Hoose
veltlan paralysis?meaning thnt ho
1 epoko muchly but said little?tho
blame will all ntt/ch to the Cadillac.
I terror of bygone days. If tho reports
I of the Associated Press ate authentic
! ?nnd no more authentic reports are
I received from any source?Rivers was
ccarly entitled to tlio decision via tho
I knockout route. Tho game. In bad re?
pute as It Is. can never bo helped by
! such methods. Wolgast ha.s been a
'itamo fighter nnd a camo winner. He
j should bo a gnmo loser. Not ono whit
i has been added to his reputntlon by
the phoney decision over tho Mexican
[Joe Rivers. Rivers will bo accepted
I. as tho champion In fact, even though
[he has been deprived of It In nnnie.
j Johnny Kllbane. of whom nothing else
I was expected, successfully du fended
his tltlo against Tommy Dtxon In Cleve?
land. If Kllbane follows tho narrow
path, as he has ilono up to tho present
time, despite the honors which havo been
his, ho will weal- tho mantlo In the
featherweight division for many more
moons.
