According to Manager Fohl's view, the palpable mistakes of Lee were no more damaging than Lamb’'s work. The second baseman failed to inter- cept several raps which were credited as hits. Courtney narrowly escaped serious injury in the third, when Shocker socked a ball back at him with rifle- like speed. Courtney barely managed to avoid the drive, aimed at his mid- section. Frank Ellerbe was generously ap- plauded when he made his first ap- pearance at bat in alien livery. The governor came through with a couple of clean whacks for the day.

Local Paddlers Priming for Qut-of-Town Events BUSY SEASON ON WATER’ |PLANNED FOR C{\_NOEISTS BY H. C. BYRD. M EMBERS of the Washington Canoe Club are planning a busy sea- son on and in the water. Next week they are to take part in their first canoe regatta, and in July and August will foster swim- ming meets. Sixteen men are in training, and the club expects to place in competition the most versatile and capable squad of athletes that have worn its_colors, not excepting even the squads which made such brilliant records in regattas a season or two ago. Next week, Saturday, June 25, the regatta over the course, the finish of club is to send four men tc compete! which is directly in front oi the club- in the two races fm?num single and double blade, on Lake George. This meet wisl be a kind o dual affair with picked athletes from the Atlantic di- vision of the American Canoe Associa- tion against picked squads from the central division. Have a Strong Four. Managers of the People's regatta at Philadelphia July 4, almost entirely a rowing affair, have added two events for canoes—races for single-blade fours and double-blade fours—and the local club is to be represented in both. Harry Knight, Karl Knight, Walton and Martin are to make up the quar- tet which competes at Lake George and Philadelphia. The Knight broth- ers were members of one of the fast- est fours that have pulled a paddle in eastern canoe circles, and, while Wal- ton and.Knight take the places of Wagner and Burch or Eliason, have developed into expert paddlcrs and should more than hold up their end. Walton, according to one mem- ber of the club, paddler turned out in Washington in years. July 16 the club is to hold its own SIX HOMERS IN BATFEST State in 29-Hit Argument in Departmental League. Twenty-nine hits, including six homers and four doubles, were made yesterday In the Departmental League while Treasury was overwhelming State, 19 to 9. Four of the circuit clouts were credited to the winners, Mackey getting two and Baldwin and Lucas one each. Moriarity and Pixton did the route-hitting for State. Olson and Croft, between them, yielded six 34 | hits to State. Pixton, Huckert and ‘Watson were combed for twenty-two. Elks raced to a 13-to-2 victory over the Moose in- the Fraternal League. Owen granted the losers seven hits and never was troubled except in the sixth inning. Judd & Detweiler beat Carro! Elec- tric, 14 to 9, in the Commercial League. Tweedale and Noone got homers for the winners. Steele, with a triple and three singles in five times at bat, led the losers. Zome 4 got anm early lead to defeat Zone 5 in the 9-to-7 Navy Yard League game. Hartley played well in center- field for the winners and got a triple and double at bat. Potomac Council scored seven runs off Halloran in the first inning and ‘went on to a 9-to-5 win over Wash- ington Council in the Knights of Columbus League. Sullivan of Wash- ll:".tlun hit safely four times in five trials. TODAY IBASE BALL:3Y AMERICAN LEAGUE PARK Washington Vs.
