The Clevelanders, who finished be- hind Brooklyn and Washingten in the first half of the campaign, have been setting the pace for the other com- binations since the start of the final half of the race. Washington tum- bled them out of the runner-up posi- tion at their last apearance here and will win no small share of glory if the invaders can be started on the downward path tonight. The teams now stand on even terms for their two encounters so far this sesaon. In the initial engage- ment, played on the 'Rosenblums court, the home team took the Capital Cityans into camp, 34 to 29. The re- turn match, played here, however, went to Washington by a count of 26 to 21, Rusty Saunders, runing mate to Georgie Glascoe at forward, is slated to return to the Palace line-up tonight following an attack of grip which kept him from last Monday’s game with Chicago on the Arcade court. Bob Brody, who replaced Horse Daggerty when the big center went to Brooklyn, will be at the pivot posi- tion, while Manager Ray Kennedy and Capt. Teddy Kearns hold forth at the guard berths. K In the preliminary the Washington Yankees engage the Fort Washing- ton quint, which recently clinched the championship of the District Service League. The opener begins at 7:15 o'clock.

The game is scheduled for 2:30 o'clock. The soldier team is in the runmer- up position at present with a record of seven wins and two losses and still has a slim chance of going into a deadlock for first honors with the Walfords, who have yet to be de- feated.
