They bunched six of their blows in one round, but the other eight came singly, while tae Yanks grouped clouts in four differ- ent sessions. Judge Hitx for Clrcuit. Judge got the Nationals off to a lead in the opening round with a clout to the jury box for the circult. It was a stiff drive that Ru'h at- tempted to corral on a short hop. the ball bounding past the Babe. Unlooked for aid with the willow | from Rip Collins enabled the Yankees to go the Griffs one better in round 2. The contribution of the big box- man. with whom a single is an event, was a clout over Milan's head for three bases, which cashed Ward and McNally, on the paths by virtue of ; one-basérs each. The Griffs tied it up in their half when Harris walked. stole second and scored on Shanks' single to right and again assumed the lead in the third. when. with two gone, Milan :pasted a triple over Ruth’s dome and reached the platter in safety when ZHofman muffed Ward's relay.

The Natlonals were penalized for a bit of rough work by Harris in_the fcurth. He was on first, with Rice on sacond, when Shanks bounded to Peck. The latter's throw to second forced Harris, who coilld~d with VWard in such a manner as to prevent him from attempting a throw to Pipp. This palpable bit of interference by Harris resulted in Shanks being de- clared out anG the Yanks were cll'edl(ed with having effected a double play.

Na- tional Athletic Club, now leading that group with two wins and no defeats, has been ordered to meet the War- wicks on Union station plaza at 5:15 ao'clock this afternoon in the play-off of a tie game, which if won by the latter would put them on even terms with the Nationals. The Nationals, however, declare they will not play the game. Should they fail to appear for the contest the Warwick nine, if on the fleld, will be awarded the game by forfeit and another meeting be- tween these teams will be necessary to determine a-sectional winner. Gibraltar and Emerald nines will be opponents tomorrow on Union Sta- tion plaza in tke play-off of a tie game that means much in Section A of the unlimited division. Gibs win they will gain the title, but a defcat will leave them tied with the Westovers. Yesterday the Emeralds played a 6-6 game with Langdon. Love's homer in the final inning saved the Langdons from defeat. No games were played in tke junior division, the umpires failing to ap- pear.
