o 26° S PORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. (., FRIDAY, JUNE 3, 192L Mogridge Faces Faber Today : Sectional Battles Indicate RARE PITCHING BATTLE BETWEEN VETERANS DUE ‘Nationals Register Fou i rth Straight Victory by Gharets Taking Opener from White Sox, With BY DENMAN THOMPSON. HAT should prove a hurling duel of rare caliber may be staged at American League Park this afternoon when the Nationals W and White Sox clash in th opened yesterday with the homeguard on the heavy end of a 7-2 count. Barring unforseen difficulties, today’ slabmen of each outfit, both of whom are listed right at the top among American League fingers—Urban C. although “getting on,” being in this thirty-third year, this season is pitch- ing the best ball of his career, not even excepting '15 and '16, when he won about twice as many games as he lost. To date in the current cam- paign, the red-thatched one, with a far inferior club, has nine wins to his credit as against three setbacks, for an average of 750, his moist shoots having bothered every outfit in the league. Mogridge. also a veteran, having passed his thirty-first milestone, owns’a 1921 mark of .714 from five victories and two reverses. The southpaw indicated last Monday that he is at the top of his stride by blanking the heavy-hitting Yankees with two singles. If this pair hook up there should be a pitchers’ battle of proportions at the Florida avenue stockade. Courtney Hurls Well. Four thousand fans yesterday saw the Nationals ring up their fourth straight victory at the expense of the Pale Hose, through a combination of pitching prowess by Harry Courtney and a bunching of bingles by his sup- porting cast off Kerr, the wee. Court- ney limited the visitors to half a dozen blows and one earned run, while McBride's performers collected twice as many blows and profited greatly by massing three-fourths of them in two rounds. Falk registered the initial tally of the pastime for the Sox in round 2. when he started with a clean single to right Mostil beat out a bunt to Shanks. The bases were loaded when Courtney failed to get the ball over for Sheely and Falk counted while O'Rourke engineered a double play on Yaryan's roller, with the assistance of Judge. The Nationals could do little with Kerr in the eariy rounds. Harris got a single in the opener and after being trapped by Collins on Rice's bounder reached second when Sheely hurled the ball into his ribs and was wild pitched to third, where Brower Jeft him. Miller's double to start the second was wasted when Skanks, Gharrity and O'Rourke lofted, Harris was flagged stealing after walking in the third and in _the following frame Rice, Brower and Miller proved easy. Different in the Fifth. But it was different in the fifth ‘when three clean-cut bingles and two rather flukey ones were bunched for a quartet of markers. Shanks whistled a_single past Kerr's ear, took second on Gharrity's safety to left and scored when O'Rourke du- plicated this blow. Gharrity and O'Rourke moved up on Courtney's neat sacrifice, and tallied when Judge's crash caromed off Kerr's glove to an unguarded spot. Joe ad- vanced on Harris' death and counted when Rice slipped a single past Collins. _Sam swiped second, but died there, Brower popping weakly to Sheely. Set down in order in the third, the Sox got an athlete as far as second in the fourth on Hooper's single ai Falk's sacrifice. _Kerr reached midway in the fifth on his safety and a passed ball, and Hooper again nd | the Courtney Outpitching Kerr. e second battle of their series which ’s fracas will bring together the star Faber and George Mogridge. Faber, No Hitch in Ellerbe Deal; Smith May Report Sunday No basis exists for appre- hensfon that Earl Smith, out- frelder of the Browns, will balk at the swap whereby he comes t6 the Nationals in exchamge for Frank Ellerbe. It was feared because of reports that both l hiteh in the consummation of the trade, but Ellerbe played with the Browns yesterday, this morning President Grifith re- eeived a wire from Business Manager Quinn of the Browns to the effect that Smith has sc- companied his wife, who ‘re- cently underwent an operation in St. Louis, to their home at Portsmouth, Ohio, and will re- port here in a few days, prob- ably by Sunday. PERRY QUTS ATHLETICS Will Pitch for Franklin, Pa., Semi- Pros—Through With Organized Base Ball, He Says. FRANKLIN, Pa, June 3.—Scott Perry, pitcher of the Philadelphia Americans, has joined a semi-profes- sional team here. Perry, who brought his family to this city from Philadel- phia, said he would make his home in Franklin, adding that he was for- ever through with organized base ball. In 1919, Perry “jumped” the Phila- delphia team, but Connie Mack in- duced him to return in 1920. l ! ! Mack to Enjoin Hurler. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 3.—Con- nie Mack, manager of the Athletics, said today that if it be true Scott Perry. his big pitcher, had jumped to the Franklin, Pa. semi-professional club. he would take the necessary le- gal steps to enjoin him from -playing ball anywhere except with the Phila- |, delphia Americans. CONSIDER GROH TRADE attained this station in the sixth|Cincinnati Club Directors Take Up when Harris fumbled Mostil's roller after Harry had walked. A Jlone walk accrued to them in the seventh, but in the eighth they picked up their second run. Harris paved the it by trying to toss a ounder from Collins’ bat before he Hooper's single sent Eddie - to third, and he scored, after Falk had hoisted a short fly, on Mostil's solid smack to deep left, which Miller got under with some effort. A wild heave by Shanks and Collins’ single put 2 pair of Sox on with two down in the ninth, but Hooper failed to get the ball past Harris. Three More in Eighth. Shanks and Judge hit safely in| the sixth and seventh, respectively. but it was not until their last turn at tat that the Nationals again were able to score. shoved thres over: bingle, Miller walked, and with two down Sam scored on a single to left by Gharrity, Miller also reaching the platter when Falk's heave to the plate got away from Yaryan, while Gharrity attained third, in position to tally on O’'Rourke’s safety to right. A bum chuck by Kerr put Blackie on third, where Courtney left him. CAUGHT ON THE FLY Bib Falk presented a variation of the new-fangled method of fly-catch- ing introduced by Brower. who squat- ted to take Ward's tall offering in Wednesday's pastime. Falk's new wrinkle might be termed the stand- ing-sitting-standing _catch. That's the way he disposed of Gharrity's ks long drive in the sixth round ye terday. Kerr was the victim of an un- fortunate break in the fifth when Judge's wicked crack caromed off his glove out of reach of anybody. This infleld hit scored two runs and paved the way for another when Rice singled in a similar manner past_Collins. Mulligan and Johnson staged a foot race for Shanks' foul in the second. It was a dead heat for dis- ance, but it was the thirg baseman ho clutched the ball. O'Rourke put on an imitation of a whirling_dervish chasing _a texas Jeaguer from Collins’ bat. 'He got it. Brower and Courtney of the locals alone went hitless. Harris and Miller obtained one apiece, while the others each got a pair. Sends L. Sewell to Columbus. CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 3.—Luke Sewell, catcher, obtained from the University of Alabama, has been turned over to the Columbus team by Cleveland on optional agreement as part of the deal by which Catcher Ar- thur Wilson came to the Indians.

Should the New Yorkers win today the Pitts- burgh club still would retain first position by a margin of more than a point. The Reds turned the tables on the Cards and the latter now are nearly two games back of the first division. ] Nehf held the Pirates to four safe- ties, while the Giants walloped Zinn and Carlson and won, 7 to 0. Youns made two doubles and a single in four times at bat and scored two runs. Five pitchers were used by the Cards in an effort to check the Reds, but the latter won, to 5.
