The Pittsburgh Courier is planning on launching a Girls' Basketball League throughout the tri etate dis trict, if the answers received by those in charge oz tne pun appear favorable. Have Numerous Jeans The girls' teams throughout this end of the state are numerous, and the so called "weaker" sex have made wonderful progress in picking up thj rudiments and some oz ut finer points of the game Last year, the game reached its climax, when the lassies from Washington, Pa and the girls representing the Clark Memorial Baptist Church of Homestead, staged a contest at Duouesne Garden before a nt more than 600 oartis fans. The Washington girls, although they lost the game, 10 9, won the championship of Western Pennsylvania, due largely to the inspired efforts of "Buddy" Chamberlain, Hampton Institute athlete pr ex and one of the very few "four letter" men ever graduated from the famous Virginia school. This year, the Pittsburgh Courier is planning on giving girls' basketball a real impetus to promoting a real league, with loving cups, indi vidual basketoaus, a Dig oauquci.

On a damp and soggy field and with heavy lad en skies hanging overhead, the lo cal fans who braved the dark and cool day were rewarded by seeing two of the best played games of the season here today, when the Monarchs defeated the Black Barons in both ends of today's doubleheader by the scores of 2 to 0 and 3 to 0 The first game was the fastest game ever played on the local diamond, the exact time being one hour and five minutes.

Big Plunk Drake was on the mound for the locals and pitched one of the best games of his career, holding the visitors to five scattered hits. Squire Moore started for the Barons and was jerk ed out in the first inning after the locals scored their first and only run, being replaced by Williams, who held the Champs scoreless for the balance oz the game. Another feature of tie game happened in the third irmi ig, when the Barons were retired on three pitched balls by Drake. The second game was a pitchers' battle between "Rogan and Squire Moore. Moore pitched a brilliant game holding the locals to four hits, while Rojran was touched up for 6 hits.

17. Four prominent colored athletes of Washington, who won their first spurs as members of the famous elevens developed at the local high school by "Hank Day. former W. J. athlete, will enter Howard univer sity, Washington, D.

this fall and if they live up to expecta tions will1 help to bolster the cause of that school. One of the quartet, Miff Martin, was at the school last year and won his varsity as a tackle on the gridiron team. He is rated as one of the best in the'f history of Washington Hiarh school and last fall demonstrated that he is of collegiate caliber. Many critics during his high school days favored him in their all star selections. Another formidable lineman going to Howard is George Jefferson, known to his friends as "Beans." He, too, played tackle at Washing ton High and played it right.

His work was so good that Waynesburg college besought him a4 one of its students and for two seasons he was on the yarsity squad, playing in most of the struggles in which the school participated and holding down a regular berth a greater part of the time. Third in the list is Quinn Banks, husky young chap of pounds. who plays halfback. Fleet as well All Star Nine May Meet New York Yankees NEW YORK. N.

Sept. 17 Negotiations are under way for a post league series between an all star colored team and one of the big league teams, probably the New York Yankees. If present plans work out this series wiU be played at the Yankee Stadium, which has a seating capacity of 75,000. The colored team is being gotten as big. Banks was a powerful ground gainer for Washington High school.

That he will do even better with Howard, is the prediction of his friends. Last but not least in the quartet is James Dillard. For your years he has held down a job as varsity end at Washington High. At smashing interference and getting the runner, he was without a peer in high school circles in the Tri State district. Ask any of the foes of the Blue and Black team and they will tell you how good he is.

These four lads were outstanding figures on the notable elevens of Washington, which for the last decade or more have been fighting each season for the Western Pennsylvania Inter scholastic Athletic League, 11 together by James J. Keen an, owner of the Lincoln Giants. About half of the team will probably be Lincoln Giant players, but they will be augmented by such stars as John Henry Lloyd, Oscar Charleston, Wagner and: Spearman of the Royal Giants and several other well known players. For the past Ave years New York has been represented in the World's series and New York baseball fans have been kept interested in big league games until the middle of October. This season it's different and the curtain will be rung down the end of September.

It is believed that a white and colored series will attract much attention the first week in October, especially against the big league players. Details of the proposed series will be announced within the next week or ten days. EDGAR BROWN. Former Men's Slagies Chasaplom TramngWithWiUs 1 V.

Twenty candidates were out for first wjek drill and tensor fifteen others are expected to report the first of the week. When the quad is complete Coach Jones expects to have at 'least thirty five boys to moid a team from. The Initial workout consisted entirely of conditioning exercises, but Coach Jones kept his charges hard at it throughout the practice periods. The practices will be lengthened and strengthened each day for about ten days, then the scrimmage drills will be inaugurated. la Geod Condition' Most of the boys are reporting ta good condition.

A majority of the boys have been at hard work this ummer. Coach Jones stated the first of the week that the squad is in good condition and unless the weather trts too hot; he can force the early work to an advantage. Personnel ef Svad opening workout found rdne members of last year's high school eleven in the harness, and all determined to make the new men step for places on this year's team. Last season's men to report were: Captain (Rose) HeiHg, Calhoun. Anderson, Lyles, Foulks, Sid die.

Watting ton. Parsons and Irving. MiteheU will join the squad the first of the week. He is Kimball's triple threat man and stands out as the peer of all high school athletes in this state. Steele will also join the squad Monday.

Elbert Pettress, he should turn out a fairly good team. C.A. C. Series Standing Is Unchanged A. League Standing Elliott Eagles Wemco N.
