Griffs Take Two Games From White Sox : East Is Easy Winner Over West on Links 'MOGRIDGE AND ZACHARY TURN IN THE VICTORIES *Score by 4 to 0 and 3 to 2, Getting Fine Backing at Critical Tin:es Both at Bat and in Field— Goslin Hits BY JOHN HICAGO. July 7.—After havin of them during their stay week, the Nationals came west with 'anythin_g but kindness in their hearts, and today those erstwhile climbing White Sox were made victims of all the pent-up feeling of Donnie Bush’s disgruntled men. thy \\;ith a punch that landed at just th gallantly withstood repeated assaults, Bush’s cohorts ended their losin, streak of four games and in beating the White Sox 4 to 0 and 3 to set a_club_record for the season.

Each of the hurlers he nine innings—not faultlessly, 'tis true, but they finished breezin', as the turfmen have it. George Rochester Mogridge, hero of the fifteen day, never let the White Sox have a look-in at the first game, and Jazebel Tecumseh Zachary, well walloped H last Monday by the league lcaders, gave his opponents only a few glimpses of the bright side of the second encounter. battle against the Yanks last Tue The pitchers were given consider- able aid, both at bat and afield, at critical _moments by their team mates. The initial tilt was settled in the third inning when Clifford Hap- peny’s error, after two_were out, let | Sam Rice get to first. Roger Peckin- paugh and Goose Goslin followed with singles and two runs were across. These tullies were made off the ~ one-time redoubtable Urban Faber, who faded from the picture in_favor of a pinch batter in the sifth. . Hollis Thurston assumed the White Sox pitching burden and he was combed for two runs In the sixth, Yeck's pass and a homer by Goslin turning the trick. While the Nationals were getting ghese tallies Mogridge | was pitching like a machine. H control was of high order and only two of the seven hits made off him were clustered in ngle inning.

Goslin pilfered | second and Ruel walked, but they left, as Jvans skied to Mostil. The Sox stepped to the plate and back to the bench in order in their portion of the first, and both clubs did the same in the second inning. The Nationals got a runner on third base in the third seesion, Rice's sin- le to right, Peck's sacrifiee and Goslin's_retirement doing the work before Gharrity flled to Elsh. Only three White Sox faced Zach- | ary in the third, but both clubs dent- ed the sacks in the fourth session. Two were out when Harris rapped toward Happenny and made first, de- spite the latter's great stop and throw. Bluege scratched a hit off McClellan's glove, but Zachary was & strike-out victim. In the Sox half Hooper popped to Ruel, but McClel- lan singled to center, the first wallop off Zachary. Evans' thrilling catch then took care of Mostil and Sheely sent an easy chance to Rice. ? Sox Act Up in Fifth. None of the Natlonals bothered Blankenship in the fifth, but the Sox were a bit active in that chapter. Elsh began the frame with a clout to center that was held to a single only by Rice's fast work. Kamm sacri- ficed and when Happenny was retired Eish went to third. Graham's best was an easy grounder to Peck. Runners adorned the sacks in the sixth. Gharrity was walked to' start the Natfonals’ half and Ruel ad- vanced him with a neat bunt. Evans and Harris could not help Pat, how- ever. With Blankenship gone, Hoo- per got the third Sox hit, a single that Bluege knocked down just in front of Peck, but was thrown out attempting to steal. l Two National runs splattered across the plate In the seventh, thanks mainly to the $100,000 beauty, Willle Kgmm.

The diamond has been shifted a trifle, the entire fleld resodded and mors comfortable dugouts built for the teams. The playing field now ranks with the best in the American League instead of with the worst, as it dfd| when the Nationdls were here in| May. Twice in the first game, White Sox batters got hits on whdt ordi- narily would have been easy outs when a_high sun interfered with catches. In the fourth Inning Peck came in to the pitcher’s box and camped under Mostil's loft, but just as the ball was about to nestle in his hands had to duck out of Old Sol's glare. rris did the same thing when Elsh popped to short right In the seventh session. . t Holmes, umpiring at second base in the nightcap, got his signs crossed steal after two out. His umps raised his mitt, giving the signal usually in- dicating an out, so the White Sox| players tossed away their gloves and began leaving the field, while Goslin sauntered off the sack. Holmes then shouted to the Sox that Goslin was safe and there was a merry scramble all around, but Goose got back to sec- ond safely. Goslin contributed a great shoe- string catch in the seventh inning of the. first .game, Schalk being the vic- tim. The clever fielding prevented a ‘White Sox run. Elsh being on second t the time. The latter got back at Goslin in the fifth inning of the sec- ond encounter, however, when Goose lined to left. Roy made a dive at the ball' caught it just before it reached the ground and came out of a somersault with the sphere in his possession.

Callahan of the Cubs was given a dia- mond ring by friends from Norwood, Mass., his home. Chicago. AB.H. 0.A. Boston.

CUBS GARNER A PAIR He took a 76. That same The net result of the east Vs | west mateh, played as a benefit affai for the Professional Golfers' Associa- tion, was an overwhelming victory in favor of the east, golfers repre- senting the Atlamtic seaboard annex- ing nine points to two for the club wielders from béyond the Alie- ghenies. Walter Hagen and little Gene Sara- zen, on whose black head rests th: champlon’s crown, did their stuff today for the galleries that thronged the Inwood course. Walter, the deb- onair, was around in 6§, with one or two conceded putts, while Sars zen, his partner, romped around in an easy 71—the same score as that made b srandfather” John Black. who was the partner of Jock Hutch- ison, maker of a score of 73 this afternoon. Little Bob Cruickshank professional at Shackamaxon, was around in 79, and other fine scores blossomed like mushrooms after a foggy night. Clarence Hackney was 71, John Farrel was 71, Bobby Joner was 72, Chick Evans was 73 and gny, score over 7o simply wasn't n it. Higher Scores Are Coming. The scores will be quite differen Monday, when the pencil and bogey of the missed short putt begin to work havoe with the nerves of the contestants. Yes, golfers all, it will be quite different Monday, when th: tees are stretched out away back and the cups are placed in the most difficult positions on the greens. Bobby Jones and Chick Evans, al though they are partnered by J. S Worthington and Rudy Knepper respectively, had a fine battle be- tween themselves, in which the best ball _match was halved and Jones {led Evans by one hole at the finish Knepper continued to halve a_ hol~ for his side but Worthington didn't help Jones a bit. Bobby, one do at the twelfth, stuck a low mashir shot into the wind ten feet from the pin at the very difficult fifteenth and squared the match. He played one of the finest shots of the day a the sixteenth, but failed to hole his putt. With the match all square, Evans’ putt for a birdie 3 at the eighteenth to win, stopped on the 1ip of the cup. The matches wers played with one point going to the winner of each nine and one point to the winner of the match. No in- dividual matches were played. Diegel and McLeod were all squars with Brady and McDonald at the end of the first nine holes, with Diegei out in 35. A 4 on_the 421-vard eleventh by Brady put his team in the lead, and, although both McLeod and Diegel had several putts to square the match, they failed to drop. Brady struck a long iron three feet from the hole on the 497-yard fourteenth to put his side 2 up. That's the way it stood at the Seventeenth, and that's the way it finished at the same -hole. Hagen-Sarazen in Driving Duel. Hagen and Sarazen staged a be: tiful driving duel, with both men unusually long off the tee and both consistently longer than Hutchison or Black. The latter, sensation of Skokie in 19 is hitting the ball well, and may again battle with the leaders for a title he lost by a stroke last vear. Jim Barnes of Pelham ended the match In which he and John. Karrel! played against MacDonald Smith and Emmett French when he laid a mashie iron shot at the 426-yard six- teenth dead to the pin. That shot won the match 3 and 2, and laid away three points for the east. An odd _feature of the Sarazen-Hagen vs. Hutchison-Black match was that all the players except Hagen had birdie 3s on the 420-vard thirteenth Three long putts hit the back edge of the cup and dropped, while Hagen bunkered on his second shot, nearly chipped in for a 3. The east-west matches were not the only attractions today, although in them were engaged all the men picked as possible winners of the title next week. The rest of the field, some 300-odd of them, went around the course, but no low scores were recorded. Cards of Low Scorers. Walter Hagen had a medal of 6s. four under par for the course. Black and Sarazen, with cards of 71 ea were one under par, and Hutchison's 73 was one above. Hagen and Sarazen had the best ball of 66, six under par for the course. while Black and Hutchison's best ball was 69, three under par.
