this week. Sehwengers Is no longer a witness some good games wnen tne Commercial Leaguers stage their annual play-off. The system of determining pennant winners by a three-ln-flve series between the two leading teams was Inaugurated a year ago and proved an unqualified success, and the Indications are that this season's series will be equally successful. Wallaces won from Centrals last year after an Interesting series in which Ave games were played before a decision was reached, the Shipbuilders winning the championship by capturing the final contest an exciting twelve-Inning affair. The amateurs have been playing bang-up ball this season and the.

fans should be out In force for the play-oH games at Athletic Park. a a DAN McKENZrt Is the only Commercial League manager to pilot more than one winner, since the Inception of the premier amateur baseball organisation six or seven years ago. Mac la now a prosperous business man of New Westminster, as manager of the National Biscuits ho copped the Commercial League flag In 1914 and 1915, and up to the time of his departure always boasted a uennant contender. The B. C.

Telephone team won the first championship back in 1913. In 1916 the Malklns won the championship and the following year Suider Brethour finished in front In 1918 Andy Neilson piloted the Coughlan Club to a championship, and last year Jack McGreish headed the winning Wallace team, which not only won the local championship but cleaned up in the provincial title series, defeating the City League champions, Prince Rupert and Victoria. a a a THK play-oft system, patterned after the hockey plan of settling championships is a good one and has fully Justified Its adoption by organizations in which more than two teams are entered. In hockey, however, tie championship Is decided in a scries of two matches, total goals deciding the issue. It has now been suggested that in future the best two in three matches should be agreed on, one in each of the two cities, and a third if one is necessary, on neutral ice.
