Boston Braves Will Meet Griffith's Nationals Today Bcantowners Make Visit Here Today for Exhibi¬ tion Game at Florida Avenue Stadium. Why should the weather man do his butting in on the only exhibi¬ tion game scheduled In the National Capital for the day? According to the schedule made up some time In the months of January or Febru¬ ary, Secretary Hapwoods, of the Boston Braves, kicked In with this circuit arranged for Clark <-.: \h's Nationals to play her· on this occa¬ sion. Should this weather man decide to keep In that same league or thif disagreeable nablt there will be no game today. The Braves have been the under dog tn thla spring campaign against the New York Yankees, but the Yan¬ kees can «wat and watch thla tribe of "swalmen** In the drive for the Mag in this year of mi« Any club that gets away with these Yankees or the quartet that bat in the clean-up position will know that it has opposed a real gang of fence- «busters. Unless weather conditions turn for the best there will be no chanc« of the game with the Braves todsy. Florida Avenue Stadium is at pres¬ ent soaked to the core, and the foot¬ ing in the territory of the outer works is even beyond the redemp¬ tion of Jimmy O'Dea, expert and of course extraordinary In the Une of ground-keeping. According io Jimmy ther· Is no chance for this* Hub City crew to exhibit their pennant-winning claims to the local public, hut Jimmy and his gang may slip it over on th·* boys of *the B. B. Johnson circuit snd show something real Interesting. From the way that the American League Yankees have been knocking these bcantowners off in the exhibi¬ tion contests, George Stallings has gathered sround lilm a bunch of weaklings, and the Braves are doom- ed for a cellar position. In the line-up of this Stallings clan will be found pitcher-players of note. According to reports Dick Rudolph, the mainstay of this Hub City team, has not reported, and this climax which broke In the Cap¬ ital City bringe out other storie«.

Mt. St. Joseph's alv ay« has a fsst team and ia likely to give the Blue and Gray a hard battle for the big end of the score. L»*» Hart, a former catcher of Central High, will he with tbe team thla year in hi« old position behind the bat. State College «-ft! play its second trame of the season when it battles the Gallaudet College team at Col¬ lege Park this afternoon.

April 12.-All doubt conoerning the future of the New In¬ ternational League were dispelfed to¬ night when the magnates liegan woik- ing out a playing schedule here. The Syracuse franchise wss taken over by Pat Donovan, former Boston Red Sox player, and major league man¬ ager. This assures s team for Syra¬ cuse which was one of the doubtful issues threatening the life of Ihe league. The status of the Newark club will be decided at tomorrow's meeting. J. H. Farrell, president of the new league, stated tonight that It Is now a certainty that Newark will be iep- resented although he would not re¬ veal the identity of the franchise: holder.

The Eastern team ha.» been work¬ ing out in the open for some time when the weather would permit, but has had little chance to plav any real games. Army and Navy Preps «re sched¬ ili·«] to play the City Collese Team of Baltimore, but it is doubtful if «he game can be played as the diamond is under a covernig of snow, so it looks as if the future admirals will be idle today. ? the End of a Perfect.Friendship By BRIGGS r¿tmes r*âtjTH^6 LIM*« «CbMGerv/iML CO»v<iPArJio»J»S IO 'hiS GfAME (CopjTl|lit. i«l. bj Th« Tribua« ÀsneUtlt· tttt Totk Tribu»·.)

Al¬ though the track will not be much better than it has been through the rough weather of the past few days, from Indications all mill be clear over¬ head, which, after all, counts the most with a Saturday afternoon crowd. Yesterday the horses ra_o closer to form than they have for the past t«'» days, and each of the seven winners in as many events were well backed; in the machines. Local talent waa In the foreground yesterday afternoon when the Liberty Bond Purse race slipped around, as Baby Sister, owned by the Potomac stable, an establishment just formed by two Waahington men. won this event. Baby Sister was herd pit by Huda's Brother mnd Rosewstrr. but neither of these proved good «miough to get the decision from her. Or. Charcot waa rather favored in this race, but he fell down miserably and failed to repeat hi· good performance of Wednesday. Somewhat of a surprise was sprung In the first race when Tiger Rose, from the Brighton stable, romped home fn easy fashion. Tiger Rose and John Power* ran on the satee ticket. but it was expected that John Powers would put up th* performance which would wtn the puras. Joekey McAfee copped bonors at the track yesterday when he won two races, the first on Ticrr Rose and the fourth on Baby Sister. Other jockeys who had winning mounts were Troxler. Doyle. Stalker, Rod-1 rig-uex and Kummer. Mrs. Kdward Arlington's Scarpia II took down the second race from the odds-on favorite Yiley. Sorcerer II .accounted for the third event in easy fashion ridden bv the veteran Trox¬ ler. Silk Bird, owned by A. Bulcroft. proved his class in the« fifth race when he beatt Garish Sun to the tape. Red Post was made odds-on favor- orite, but he failed to deliver. Jockey Rodriguez kept up his record of winning at least one race each day m-hen he brought home Comacho in the sixth.
