W YORK, September 1.—Unless they win this afternoon in the final game of the year here with the Yankees, the Nationals will get home tomorrow morning with nothing better than an even ak earned during an cighteen-game road trip began so auspiciously. Eight of the first ten engagements played ended in favor of the Bushmen, but they have dropped six of their last seven, that 4-to-2 loss to the Yankecs yesterday making a victory today necessary if Prex i hirelings are to be 50-50 tourists. In all likelihood, Manager Bush will send Allen Russell, spit ball flinger, gainst the Yanks this afternoon, trusting that the veteran may pitch the ationals out of their slump. George Mogridge, southpaw, also is duc for action, but he probably will be held in reserve for the clash with the Hugmen in the Nationals' own yard tomorrow. vBeating the Yankees this year has Leen too much for Donie Bush's ag- gregation, either at home or in the great stadium here. All told, the clubs have clashed n teen times, with the Bushmen getting the long end of the count on but four occa- sions. The Yanks were trounced by the Nationals the first two times they were encountered here in April and | in W hington May 2 and June 4. Bush's team, more than any other, | has helped put the Hugmen far (;ul‘ in front in the run for the American League championship.
