SPORTS. Faulty Base Running'D‘rjc;g—On Nationals : White Sox Belie Their POOR COACHING AT THIRD PROVES HANDICAP TO CLUB Bushmen Win, 5-1, in Spite of It Yesterday, Due to | i Johnson’s Fine Twirling and the Pounding His Mates Gave Ray Francis. BY DENMAN THOMPSO! ' I make them a contender. There MPROVED pitching and better hitting isn't all the Griffmen need to was nothing to criticize in either de- partment yesterday when Johnson hurled a classy article of ball and his supporters fattened their averages at the expense of a former team- mate—Ray Francis—to record a 5-1 victory, but the base running of the Nationals left much to be desired, and, judged by the manner in which chances for runs were wantonly tossed away, an efficient man to direct olayers on the paths would prove a distinct asset. On at least two occasions opportunities for scores went a-glimmering because of bad judgment exhibited in the vicinty of third base, and, while the effect on this occasion was merely to reduce the margin by which the contest was won, such deficiences would prove disastrous in a majority of battles. Base runners at all times are sup- posed to watch the progress of play Tor themselves, but they frequently have to depend upon the judgment of the man stationed in the box at third base expressly for that purpose and it would seem that the importance of 4he job warrants the use of men qualified for the assignment. Bush, himselt, is a quick thinker and smart. The manager cannot be two places at one time, of course, but if he believes he can get better re- sults by directing from the benck he should station on the lines men Who are competent, especially at third base, where ost of the important plays develop. First Tyger Up Scores. Haney, the first to Johnson. completed the circul Was credited with a hit on a rap that Harris juggled, advanced on Blue's acrifice and scored on a double to 1&ft by Cobb. Johnson then slipped a third strike over on Veach, and Heilmann rolled to Bluege. The Griffs made a couple of false starts before they tled it up. Rice walked at the outset and FPeck singled, but Sam was forced by Bluege after Goslin and Judge lofted. In the second, Evans got no farther than the keystone after leading off with a safety, but round three brought the score. Rice again walked, raced to third on Peck's Texas leaguer to right and tallied on Goslin's long liner to Cobb. Bluege's wicked whack _through Haney, which he converted into a double by fast foot work paved the way for the Griff's to take the lead in the fourth. Ossie moved to the far corner on Evans' sacrifice and counted when Harris poked a safety past Rigney. Francis was spanked for a trio of Rallies in the seventh. Ruel opened with a bingle to Rigney in deep short, advanced on JohnsorSs sacrifice and scored on Rice's triple over Cobb's head. Peck was purposely passed and Goslin, who had his last thirteen timés at bat, re- sented *he slight on his punching proclivities by ramming a single to left that cashed Rice. After Judge had lofted. Bluege looped a Texas league double to center that cashed Peck. Evans ended it by fiving to Hellmann "The Tygers were as tame as tabby cats after the Inftial session, three ing thelr portion f the route. into a dual_killing after Blue hit to Harris in the third ter Fothergill was after getting a safety in the seventh by Rigney, who died stealing. Heilmann, who walked in the fourth was wild-pitched to second and reach- ed the far corner on Cutshaw's death, was left when Rigney flied to Goslin ON THE SIDE LINES Pilot Bush was expected to choose from Mogridge and Hollingsworth for mound duty geainst the Jungaleers today. Crvh:j-d a _whole handful of flingers to from. face "Harrep was loudly cheered for his backhand stop of Blue's roller in the rear of the middle cushion in the third, although Lu beat his peg to lJudge. Fudge worked f killing on the play which followed. He took Cobb's roller, stepped on first and then fired to Peck who tag Blue sliding into second. The topals would have regis- tered four times in the seventh Gharrity hadn't flagged Goslin at third on Bluege's double to center. The Goose could have scored with e to get a double Bad _ hase-running gave Haney credit for a smart play in the eighth when he corralled Peck's whack close to the foul line. He had no chance o flag Rajah, but got off a peg to Facsler that natled” Ruel trying to Ecore_from third. If Muddy had not gone to an al- most certain death the bhases would have been loaded with Goslin up. Another bit of poor judgment on the paths cropped up in_the fourth when Ruel bounded to Haney with Harris on third. Buckey dldn’t have cae chance in a hundred to score and was run down by Haney and Bassler in hollow style.

DENSE FOG CONFUSES | IN CUB-GIANT CLASH CHICAGO, June 7.—A “London” fog descended over the Chicago Nationals' Ppark just before the opening of the |Cubs-Glants base ball game yester- day afternoon and when it ascended the world champions had been de- feated by Chicago, 6 to 1, and um- pires, accustomed to snap decislons, held several conferences before call- ing ‘em The fog, the first to occur during a game here, was so dense that the outfielders were hidden from the stands most of the time and the in- fielders part of the time. Several times it was necessary for the umpires to confer before an- nouncing decisions. In.the third in- {ning Vogel, Cub rightfielder, sent & fly into the outer darkness and while resting on second base, “Pep” Young rushed in, claiming he had caught the ball. ‘The player was called out A ftew innings later Young scooped up a drive, rolling over as he did so. Again he claimed he had caught it This time the umpires decided other- wise, but not until after the New York players had left the playing fleld and their first batsman has as- sumed his position at the plate.

Toole, president of the International League, today admitted that question had been raised as to the delivery of Lore Bader, Toronto pitcher, but de- ared no formal protest had been to him so far. Unsubstantiated he said, that Bader wa hine ball,” an illegal delivery, had been made several times. INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE. Reading .. Baltimore ... 3 Batteries—Karpp‘and Lynn; Thomas and Cobb.

June 7.—John Conway | | At the Sign of the Moon WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, JUNE 7, 1923, MOHAWK-MERCURY GAME PROMISES MANY THRILLS . s IG into the sandlot records this D season and you'll find the Mohawks, Shamrocks, American Legion, Garfields and Petworth Athletic Club in the front rank thus far. If the Dominican Lyceums, Knick- erbockers, Hilltops and Mercurys fail to brace in the next few weeks, a nine in the former group is destined to cop the independent title, Per- haps this dopegs premature, but the sandlot series gets under way in July, and only three weeks remain for all nines to smooth out their rough spots. In the opinion of sandlotters one of the blessings in amateur ball Is the fact that no player is tied to any team. Local diamond athletes are ever changing from one team to the other. Tt was a lucky day for the Mohawks when Ereddy Noone decided tq quit the Hilltops and Mercurys, for he is one of the best young receivers In the city. Last year he was given a try-out wtih the Griffmen, but did not quite measure up to the job. How- ever, he will strengthen the Hawks. Remember tife foot ball clash be- tween Mohawks and Mercurys at the American League Park last year? It was the most bitterly fought battle of the fall. Each cleven had several hundred spirited backers and when the Mercurys won followers of the Irdians looked on mext year as the time to even matters. Rivairy, runs igh between the two clubs. This same spirit that cropped out at the foot ball game is due to bob up again when the rivals meet on the dlamond at the Washington barracks Sunday at 1:30 o'clock. Old ‘dependable hurlers of the two nipes are due for some real work that day. Forest Thompson or Lefty Winegarden are booked to pitch for the Mohawks, while Laycock or Pfeil are slated for the Mercury box work. Each nine has Its several hundred fans. The big crowd that turned out to watch the Shamrock-Dominican Lyceum game is expected to be out- numbered this Sunday. RUMANIA DEFAULTS IN DAVIS CUP SERIES By the Associated Press. MADRID, June 7.—Rumania has de- faulted In the tennis competition for the Davis cup, thus advancing Spain to the second round in the European zone. Spain will meet the British | Isles in this round.

INSIDE GOLF - By George O'Neil The golfer adjusts himself to the length of his golf stick, mot the Bolf club to his physical make-u The player takes the club of standard length and them learns to swing it in the precise manner that will give him the most leverage on the ball. H hix arm length, or the in these between » other player of tcocally differenmt physical make-up, have nothing do h it. The tinlest golf sta for instance, swing the sam length clubs as the tallest omes with but few exceptions. This is because the club Itself serves merely as an instrument to lengthen the arms. The club, thus, is ainiply an extension of the arm. The leverage is put upon the ball partly with the club, partly with the whoulders, partly with the body as a whole, The player should underatand that an inch, more or lesx, otten adds vastly to the golf stroke. Thus, the levesage on the ball Is subject to great change by grasping the shaft up or down om the Icather grip. The man makes the shot, not the club. (Copyright, Joha F.
