The grown-ups will try again today at 5 o'clock, and if rain in- terferes again the contests en the courts at New York avenue and First street will be postponed un- til tomorrow. Of almost as great interest as the Washington ' finals are the Prince Georges County play-offs, to take place tomorrow night on the well lighted coutrs at Mount Rainier, with cham- pions and runners-up of town tourna- ments engaged, This event will bring | ©&! out more natural rivalry than the Washington affair, from which six of the Capital's leading favorites unex- pectedly were eliminated.

A large gal- lery is assured and, led by Frank Bau- man, town champion and tournament h?m the Motnt Rainier pitchers ve made every arrangement possible 1o make the piay-ofls stiractive o both performer and. spectator.
