a8 ™ SPORTS. " FOURTH PLACE POSSIBLE DURING WESTERN JAUNT Will Have to Do Better, However, Than Last Time on Road—Break Even With Chisox in Ending Series at Home. BY JOHN B. KELLER. M ARTINSBURG, W. Va. August 14—That the club treasury might possibly be enriched to the extent of a few hundred dollars, the Nationals, who left Washington this morning for their final swing around the western portion of BanJohnson's circuit, stopped off here this afternoon for an exhibition with the local team of the Blue Ridge League. As a result they will not arrive in Chicago tomorrow any greag length of time before being called upon to face the White Sox in a double bill. And this dual-engagement business with Kid Gleason's outfit is no snap for the Nationals now. judging from those held in Washington Saturday and yesterday s These days the Bushmen need all the rest they can get prior to play- ing one contest. The club is none too steady, and, if it is to make any headway against the western contingent of the American League, must be careiully nursed. The Nationals are starting the tour just one and one-hali games behind the fifth-place White Sox. and, if they keep on their toes, have an opportunity to break into the first division before they return. But in considering the possibilky of the Nationals’ climbing, one | cannot help but remember that they began their previous western in- OME lively doings are billed tod vasion only four games behind second place and came home a poor S seventh Sy SO A golden opportunity to jump into and the St. Martin nine into the Afth place was § ;]‘uw'hrlul('n'“\\\)l\(-n thrills aplenty. e second game he dual bill was % B x.

Hoth of the White Sox homers were rather fluky. KEach was a liner to center that should have been nothing more than a single, but each took a high bound and cleared Leibold, who had come in for a bounding play. Nemo had ¢o run almost to the cen- ter-field wzil for each of the hits. Ruel smacked a peculiar single in| the second inning of the late en- counter. The ball was traveling down the left-field foul line with Mostil in position for a stop, bt it hit the third sack and rebounded toward the infleld. As games go mow, those yesterday were speedy.

The top or left leg is chiefly a foil. From a position with the, legs extended full to the rear, the body lying flat on the water, the right knee is bent and opened wide from the left leg which is held straight but not rigid. As the body rolls up to the left and the top arm finishes its sweep, the right leg kicks suddenly to a straight posi- tion. It swmgs close to the left foot and past it in a “follow through.” This is the famous scissors kick. The kick is executed simultaneously with the pull of the top arm, and in the simple stroke there is only one kick to each revolution of the arms.
