Pitching to Decide THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D: TEAM’S SUCCESS DEPENDS |EPIPHANY BASKETERS ON HOW BOXMEN DELIVER Foster Sees Real Infield in Prospect, a Better Outfield | ;, Than Club Had Last Season and Says Bush Will Make Them Husile.

Some of the curios re almost invaluable. They were collected by the late Henry Bradley Plant, and the hotel is literally an art center.” The Washington {club was vollected by Clark Griffith, and there are times when he thinks that it aimost invaluable. and othes times when he wishes that it were—well, it is not right to use the word defunct, because that Is an exaggeration of the truth Class of Pitching to Declde.

He didn't The ball may have rolled into some suburb. which was not touched by the Ruth hit. but the fly part of the Ruth hit carried further than the fiy part of the Judge hit. The Washington team has some ex- cellent voung players. But it is easfly seen that Judge will play first and Harris will play second. Conroy Is Belng Worked. Gagron is being tried at short. He played the other day against Conlen of Boston. Both of them kicked the ball. Boston seems to think Conlon is going to make good. Washington hopes that Gagnon will make good Both youngsters can £tand another vear in the minors, but there are no minors to whom they v be sent. At third Conroy I8 g given a good work-ont for shington.

Whether as a steady he wenid be un to the demands of the position ia something different F¥ivans began to snap them across the diamond with too much speed too eraly in the season. Ordinarily he has a fine arm, and when the sore- nnss works out of his museles he will £0 ahead with littla trouble. Tt will be up to him then to prove how capable he is for the position. Peckinpaugh is almost certain to play better at short this vear than he did last. He will be better ac- customed to the team. If either Conroy or Evans makes a real play- er on_the right side of Peckinpaugh tha Washington infield will be a different ‘nroposition when it gets down to work this year. Hurlers Must Come Through. Whatever combination Bush tries in the outfleld when he gets ready to announce his line-up of regulars for 1he season is bound to be better than that of 1922. Griff seems to have one of those teams which he has had so often in the past, one that can be depended upon to make a fight for any game if only the pitchers will come through for him. “The pitchers are not like they used to be." he said. “I don’t care what any one says about pitching. I know that when I was in the game as a pitcher there wasn't a one of them against whom I had to fight who couldn’t pitch to the batter. Darn it. they knew the batters. Now-a-days all these pitchers are pitching to the plate. ~ That isn't pitching, that's throwing the ball at a target.” Washington will come up with a hetter team than last spring if Griff doesn’t have bad luck.

Lasker offset this, how- ever, by threatening perpetual chec A rook and pawn ending seemed likely when the game, continuing from Monday, was resumed last night after thirty-six moves. Rooks were exchanged, and there was a race with passed pawns. Both players queened pawns on the ffty-first move, Mar- shall being left with two pawns to Lasker's one. Each player then cap- tured a pawn, and Lasker carefully avoided an exchange of queens, which would have meant defeat. The next four of the remaining fif- teen games will be played at Cleve- land.

Manager Donie Bush put in most of out to the Griffimen the crror of their ways in the three games playel to date. Faulty base running, faulty hitting, u headwork, all came in for vehement lectures b Coach Gibson. Pitchers Hankins, Warmoth, Russell, Me and Beach were' giv. on the mound for bLatting practice.
