Both the Cuban Stars and Brooklyn Royal giants have established their superiority over the other semi-professional clubs in this country and Cuba, and since neither can claim the undisputed championship without vanquishing the other, three games between these two top-notch aggregations have been arranged. The series was to have been played in Brooklyn during the first week in October, but since it seems certain that Brooklyn will stage the Major League World Series about the same time, it was decided to bring these games to Washington. The Brooklyn Royal Giants are very popular in their own city, where they have been playing to crowds of 12,000 or more on Saturdays and Sundays while the Rubins have been away. Aside from sending the best colored teams down to defeat during the present season the Royals have also taken the scalps of Heinie Zimmerman's All-Stars and Jeff Tesreau's Teddy Bears.

Jos� Junco, who pitched for the Cuban Stars, went the full distance, while Malloy, who worked for the Parkesburg Iron Company, was relieved in the thirteenth by Touchstone. The visitors were the first to score when they pushed one over in the first inning on an error, a hit, and a fly to the outfield. Parkesburg tied it up in the second on a hit and a couple of errors. After that, the teams battled each other to a standstill until the fiftheenth, when the Cubans bunched two hits and a sacrifice and scored another run.

"Millville News - Cubans Won Batting Matinee - Visitors Banged Robinson Good and Hard. - Allen Stopped the Attack - Millville Came Hard From Behind But Couldn't Quite Get Enough. - The Cubans Stars mauled Robinson in an agonizing manner last Saturday afternoon at the park. They slammed the offerings to various portions of the lot, collecting ten safe swats in three innings. Five of them were two baggers. The attack yielded seven tallies and with this handicap Allen was inserted into the lineup in an endeavor to prevent further roat and he did well. In the six innings he toiled the Cubans nicked him for half dozen bingles and three runs. It was a big lead to overcome but the local clubbers clung to their job like Trojans and staged a couple of rallies that brought encouraging results. They got 3 in the fifth, 2 in the seventh and another in the ninth. An effort to pull a Hilldale finish on the Cubans had all the appearances of materializing when George Mangus led off with his fourth crash of the afternoon. Jim Steelman batting for Neville, singled to left centre and the crowd began to ysll. Ned Robinson tried hard but the best he could do was a high fly to Chacon. Then Walken wallped a line to left and magnus counted. Lewis hit sharply to Chacon who threw to Leron forcing Walker. With Streehan on third, Allen hit to short left and Chacon ran back and caught it, ending the game. The Cubans play speedy ball and Millville did not make a half bad showing against them. Some miscues enacted early in the contest helped the visitors pile up the runs, but at that Millville kept in the game and made a respectable showing. George Mangus led the hitting with three singles and a double. Matt Donahue and Allen each got two and in all the home club banged Lucas for 14 crashes, while the visiting crowd got sixteen."
