The opening conflict of the set be- tween Nationals and White Sox early developed into a mound confjet be- tween Paul Zahniser and Charlie Robertson and but for a break of the game favoring the latter it might well have continued team gaining an advantage before darkness ended the contention. Zah- niser was found for nine safeties and Fobertson for seven, all of them sin- gles, while the visiting hurler gave taree passes and the Bushman two, both to Eddie Collins. Judge Caught Napping. It was one of these free tickets that brought about the defeat of the Nationals, but it needed the assist- ance of a mental lapse by Joe Judge to become a score.

Earl Sheely rifled 2 single to center and Eddie romped home with the only counter of the day. This was not the only mental lapse of which Judge was guilty. He was caught fast asleep in the seventh in- ning, when Roger Peckinpaugh tried to stage the ancient hidden-ball trick Robertson was at first base, when Bob Murray, infield recruit from Nash- | ville, tagged McClellan for the second out of the frame and tossed the ball ! to Peck. Robertson took a healthy lead.. belfeving the pitcher had the sphere. Judge must have thought so, | too. for he made no effort to grab Peck’s heave that would have trapped the runner. As a result, Robertson dashed to third. It is not often Joe is gullty of such play, but the best, of them falter at times. i Zabniser Worked Well. Zahnicer certainly deserved a bet- ter fute.

In this series the American leaguers batted terrifically. Twenty of th 56 hits they made were for extra bases. There were 18 two-baggers, 1 three-bagger and 1 home run. The Cubs made 31 hits, 11 of which were two-baggers and '1 a’ three-bagger. d rules for the serles were absurd. In Chjeago hits were made which did not go into the crowd, jbut on which" the players, under the ryles, could. not make all the bases possible on them. In the first game Manager Chance of the Cubs was ruled off the fleld for kigking against a decision giving Murphy a home rum on a hit that smashed against a sign in right fleld. In the seventh inning of the sec- ond game “Three-Fingered” Brown was driven out of the bex, the Ath- letics bombarding him for five hits, including three two-baggers, and scoring six runs. In the third game Mack surprised everybody by putting in Coombs again, and he was even more successful than in the second game. The fourth was the best game of the series and. the Cubs won It, but they blew up in the fifth. and tossed away the series. Only two pitchers were used by the Athletics in the series, which made Coombs. He won three games and Bender, the Indian, one. In every the pitcher who started the game for the Cubs was taken out before the finish. In many respects the series was very discouraging to the National League enthusiasts, who were never more exasperated over the outcome of & world championship and never more irritated by the playing of their representative team.

The only mem- bers of the team lost through gradu- ation are Boots LeVer, captain, world record holder, and 'Thurman, all- American foot ball player and tackle and a point winner in the shot-put. Capt. McLane, Penn's star distance man, will saon call out his candidates for the cros:-country team. The team last year finished last in the inter- jcolieglate cross-country run held at Van Courtland Park, in New (ork. The team was not very well roMded, only six men running for Pennsyl- vanla. This year the sport will pushed more vigorously. “The cros:-country men returning. in addition to Capt. McLane, are ers in'the intercollegiate spin; Peak. Kerr and Don Heal.

The Yankees will not be able to play out their full string of games, two dates which it will be impossible to make up. The Browns lost fifteen out of twenty games to the cham- pions, and the season’s figures wiil end at that point. The New York Giants, who appear to be the National League winners, also will finish with a short schedule, having missed one game with St. Louls. The Giants have won four- teen from the Cardinals and _lost seven. They defeated Chicago, 12 to 10, and Pittsburgh, 13 to 9. but the runners-up, the Cincinnati Reds, be- came a certain winner of the season series with the Giants by virtue of their victory yesterday, making the count 12 to 9. Giants Have Not Deteriorated. The total number of games worl from thq Giants by western teams in 1922 was thirty-eight. It will be thirty-nine this year if the Reds win today. Remarkably close running, that. ‘and it shows that the Giants have not deteriorated much, so far as the west is concerned. This should be taken into consideration when thinking of their possible strength as they line up for another world series.” If the west is the stronger half of the National League, which is indisputable, and the Giants are as {good this yéar against the west as they were last year, they cannot be the weaklings ‘some have thought them. They are good fighters when their backs are to the wall. The Giants now are well above the percentage figure with which they { finished In the last two champion- | ship races. Tn 1921 they finished at {-614; in 1932, at .604. Today their ! standing is .626.

Whatever cause may be assigned for a condition of this kind. it is cer- tain that the players of both Glants and Yankees should get the eredit for the improvement that has been demonstrated, as both teams have had to battie against seven clubs { which figured on making the New | Yorkers back up in 1923.
