Around that inning they only knocked out one solitary base blow, Walter brought all his bewildering speed out of the glorious past into the present, and but for his strange and unac- countable lapse would have tossed a game for the book. From the way he chucked throughout, he's still good for quite a few whirls down through the flwd bat-swinging of the regular campalgn. Base hits meant nothing to the Griffmen. They plastered Sam Jones for eleven of them, but could amal- gamate only the knocks sufficient to get a pair f runs. There were thir- ten McBrides marooned on the base paths. Almost every Senator had a chance to knock off runs, but except Milan, who did it In the first, and Johpson, who cut through a rescue single in the fourth, the punch was, like the attendance, missing.
