RECRUIT SHOWS MOUND 1#€LASS IN BEATING CHISOX thllnck Slabman, Starting: Game for Second Time as;Bushman, Proves Sturdy Under Fire and Finishes Contest 5-to-2 Vi BY JOHN B. KELLER.

But not until yesterday did Marberry. denfonstrate most emphatically that he is entitled to serious consideration when the Nationais’ 1924 mound corps is organized. .+ He did this by opening fire against the White Sox in the second game of their series here and sticking to his guns throughout, emerging from the conflict a 5-to-2 victor. In starting 2 game ‘for ‘the second time #Htd Becoming one of the Bush- men, Marberry, little past voting age. wasiopposed to Gorham Leverett, wily slab veteran.

In one sesgion of the engagement the White Sox hammered Marberry with all *ehéveétrength they could muster, but. he refused to.crack badly under the strain. . while Leverett was wholly uneqiial to the task of checking the Natitmals. dnce his support faltered. Ted Blankenship, who hurled the last L rounda for the Sox, also falled to sure.up to his younger opponent. “Marberry Close With Hits. erty was stingy with hits, granting but seven, ail but one of therfi' siniles ' These safeties were clustered. in four sessions, one-base mo&lbema registered by the visitors in sin ;z in_the fifth and a single and a doyble In the eighth. The young pitcher was inclined to be a bit wild, issulng ‘four passes, hitting a batter and ’,ungorking a wild heave, but whel in._cohtrel 6f the ball—which he was the greater part of the game —ne was master. His work yesterday showed much improvement over his effort in the second portion of the double-header Adiinst the Ted Sox at Boston on Labor,day, the first time he ever started a contest for the Nationals. TRep.Marberry shot his bolt quickly, tolling too strenuously in the first thres innings. The Red Sox began hitting him freely, and he was with- dra®n -after -absorbing considerable tunishment jn the fifth session. His corntrl, too, - was faulty, especlally in, the latter part of his stay on the Rill. At that, Marberry was credited withithe wictory gleaned by the Na- tionals. i tme, owever, Marberry went the route, and clearly deserved every- thimg® he' got. .

The games between New Orleans and Fort Worth are likely to be quite as sensational as those between Fort Worth and Mobile in 1922.

That they will pour into New Orleans even more coplously is certain, the attrac- tions of the ancient French settle- ment being suffiicient to make it well wortn while to drop down from Texas. And. for that matter, Fort| Worth is not without attractions itself and can show a lot of healthy base ball interest. Baltimore has won its fifth pen- nant in succession. That is a base ball record. At times the club has. looked too good. for its company and it has not been an easy task to ma cuit for that reason.

BOLEY MAY GET JOB OF SCOTT ON YANKS The usual speculation has begun as to what Manager Huggins will do to his champion Yankee machine in 1924. Among the stories going the rounds is one that Scott will find the going at shortstop too hard another vear and will' be replaced. The critics wrote Scott off the roster the same way last vear. He not only remined, but played better ball. It has been rumored that the Yanks may get Boley, the Baitimore short- stop, to fill Scott’s shoes if the latter is Jropped. Dunn is said to have told Boley to choose his club and Boley chose the Yanks. This was not: a bad choice on ‘Boley's part. for it he joins the Huggins clan he is likely to fall into a bonus not only one vear. but maybe two or three. He would fit into the Yankee infleld as well as any player tuat could be chosen to succeed Scott. Ho is a good batter, and fields his position | better than' any young player now Boley is not the only player Dunn has allowed to choose his big league berth. He gave Bentley that permis- sion and Bentley chose the Glants, where he has performed about as well as could have been expected. If there were oodless of . high-class players, he would rate as an average performer But he has come to the tront now and then this season. He never will be a second Rube Waddell, but he hits them now and then. e DOCTORS ASSURE SISLER HE CAN PLAY NEXT YEAR CHICAGO, September 26.—George Sisier, first ‘baseman for the St. Louis | Americans, who was forced into idle- Fot. | ness this season because of defective | vision, will play again next year, e | 9| cording to word received by Ban Johnson, American League: president, from Walter Fritsch, vice president | of the St. Louis team. ~Slsler’s vision | has gone from thirty-two points to Fithin four of normal, and doctors he . case hope to pro- completely . recovered Within the next two weeks, Fritsch sald. £ : CHARLOTTE WINS SERIES.

The Giants now are four games ahead, with only six to play, counting the one with St. Louis which has been canceled, ;. The Yankees, in a see-saw game with the Tigers, led in the fourth, trailed in the seventh, led again in the elghth and lost in the ninth, 5 to 4. The game was won when a pair of Cobb's pinch hitters, Manush and Woodall, came through. While the Braves were beating the Cubs in Chicago, 2 to 0, the Red Sox were losing in Boston to the St. Louls Browns, who won. 8 to 2. The Pirates, now that the worry of the. pennant race has been removed, stepped out and trimmed the Philijes, 18 to 8, Moore collecting five runs all by him- self. Philadelphia took both ends of a double-header from Cleveland, 6 to 5 and 5 to 1. . The Cardinals defeated the Robins in St. Louls, 4 to 1. The Robins made ten hits to St. Louis™ eight.

YORK, September 26.—The record: for consecutive performances in ‘base ball gomes—major and minor —now -belongs to Everett Scott, shortstop of the New: York Yankees, without & doubt. Early this season he established a new record for the major leagues, but some statistician delved and learned that Perry Lipe. a player in the Southern League, held the record at 1,127 consecutive games, finished fn 1902. Scott yesterday ran his string up to 1,129 ‘games. If he plays the re- maining games on the .
