    Woodmen and Standards Have Argument to Settle at Fontenelle Today
-— (S\ __ _ _______ - - - - - ■ ■ -■ ■ ■ ■ ■■■ ■ - —
Brace of Double
Bills Scheduled
in Metro League
Woodmen and Standard Nines
Have Won One Game from
-Each Oth^r This Season
and Today’s Is Rubber.
MATEUR follower* will
once more be fa
vored with an Im
portant card of
sandlot baseball
contests this after
Inoon following a
two-weeks’ Idleness
on account of wet
diamonds. Tw'O Met
ropolitan double
headers are Sched
tled, while the Gate
City lad* will pro
vide a brace of rep
etition twists.
The feature mix
'of the afternoon is
between the Woodmen of the World
and the Standard Laundry at 3 p. m.
at Fontenelle, with the Knights of
Columbus and the Walter G. Clarks
coming together in the opener at
the outstanding playground. The
Murphy-Did-Its and the Nebraska
TIremen meet at Muny Beach in the
remaining upper Class A tilt, while
the Schneider Electrics aand the En
, ’nen spend double time at Miller
> park. i .
Wows and Standards Even.
The Woodmen and the Standards
are on even terms, both having won
one game in their two meetings thus
far this season. The Wows and the
Did-Its are still knotted for the Met
ro lead and both will need to extend
themselves to win today. Manager
Garey will likely send Jim Moore
to the mountain for the upper hand
nine, while Ralph Beers will uphold
the colors for the Doddmen.
The Murphys have defeated the
Tires twice during the first half of
the year's schedule and the Corn
huskers are out for blood. Ike Ma
honey will again be seen doing the
hurling for the “buggy makers" un
less Allen and his southern paw re
port in top shape, while Tom Brit
ton's best bet is Recruit CUster, who
stayed the Woodmen scoreless for 12
innings.
- The winders of the upper division
meeting cannot easily be foreseen
and it is likely that the outcome of
the main confabs will make some de
cided changes in the Class A per
centage rankings.
To start things at Fontenelle, the
Knights and the Clarks tussle in the
outstanding second group affair and
a win for the Iodgemen will cinch the
lower division honors. The Schneider
Electrics and the Enginemen will
fight it out for the lower berth at
Miller park when they meet in the
second rate repetend. A double win
*lSr either team will place them in
second palce.
First Division Teams Favorites.
The foursome claiming the upper
hand in the Gate City loop will not
likely be broken this afternoon, as
the upper rate teams meet the lower
nine and should have little trouble
in turning their opponents backward.
The feature contest on tap for the
Class A artists is the Vinton Mer
ehant-De Molay mix at Riverview at
the early hour. A win for the young
lodgesters will put them high in the
running for the loop honors, while the
Vintons would drop from the upper
position. The Barkers, Naples Banks
and the Leavenworth Merchants are
expected to have easy times with the
Sherman Merchants holding the edge
over the Dietz Club at Dewey field in
i he lower half mainstay.
The American and Southern leagues
have finished their schedule and the
winners of each loop will open the
city titular series next Sunday. The
West Side Boosters and the Paxton
Billiards will work out to decide the
Sunday Class B bunting.
