SPORTS." HARRIS’ AILING ATHLETES CLEAN UP WITH COBBMEN ‘Mogridge Earns 6-t0-3 Verdict Over Trio of Tyger Tossers in Contest of Many Thrills—Spavined Griffs Meet Crippled Indians Today. BY DENMAN THOMPSON. HAT it takes more than a flock of lame backs, twisted tendons, poisoned tonsils, bruised knees and bum dogs to halt the Nationals when they are in a winning mood was forcefully demonstrated to the 3,000-odd fans who saw them drop Detroit from the runner-up niche to fourth place by bagging the second of two games played with the Tygers yesterday, 6-3. In the course of a melee productive of more sensational stunts afield than all the other battles waged here this spring combined, first Judge and then Rice was compelled to drop out of line with kinks in_their limbs, the latter being rclieved by Lance Richbourg, whose underpinning is notoriously unsound, while Mogridge also sustained a wound of the left pedal extremity which, though getting a well-earned verdict agai twirlers. Stacking up against another bunch of cripples in the Cleveland Indians, riddled ranks restricted them three victories in as many with the bedraggled Mack- Manager S. Raymond Harris' aggregation of spavined performers today are scheduled to inaugurate a set of four frolics that should pro- vide clinical contingencies a-plenty as weil as base ball of a bang-up brand. if the eventualities of yesterday may be taken as a criterion. Griffs and Indians onter the series with but two percen points sep- arating themy and sithouggh they are listed in the second division, each is but four g back of the pace. setting Yankees in the gradu ing American League flag For more than half the route ves- v, Mogridge and Cele staged a left-handed duel that was tighter “than the Scotch are close, a bingle apiece being all they yielded in the first five frames. Cole cracked in the sixth for two run: th. Benzals solved Mogridge sufliciently to knot the count in the succceding session, but thereafter Rochester George was in command, while the Griffs pro- eceeded to spank Sylvester Johnson and Kenneth Hollo for the mar- gin by they copped. Early Threats Thwarted. The Nationals were in a position to 8score on several occasions before they finally broke through Cole's guard air of markers. In the opener, stance, Harris walked with one down and stole second as Rice fan- ! ned, but was anchored when Goslin { rolled to Rigney. Ruel was left at the midway in round 2, following hi: walk and Rigney's error on Peck when Moy lofted to Cobb, and Leibold ws nded at the far cor- ner in th after his single, Harris’ and Rice's death, when Goslin g ded an in- field demise, but ose came through in a handsome manner in the fruitful sixth. Hariis opened that stanza with a shot to left and took an extra base when Fothergill fumbled. Bucky was flagged ing into third when Cole grabbed Rice's bunt, but Sam tallicd on a mur- derous wallop against the right field barrier that Goslin unlimbered and the terror in the counting block hounced one over Cole's head on a direct line to center. rley got as far as the keystone when Ruel was flagged, but Prothro left him there. Up to this time pickin's for the Tygers had been of the leanest v: rief Fothergill nicked Mogridge for safety in the opener, when Heil mann also got a life on Prothro's fumble. but the pair of them were left when Pratt hit into a force play. A walk to Heilmann in the fourth was unsupported, as was the winging of Cole in the fifth, while in the sixth Fothergill drilled into a double play after Cobb had gotten a lucky single on a ball that bounced over Prothro’s head. Three Pinch Hitters Deliver. It was in the following frame that the Tygers got busy and the de- cidedly rare spectacle of three pinch hitters in a row delivering base knocks enabled them to knot the count. Pratt had been disposed of when Rigney singled to center and 100k an extra base on Rice's fumble. Then Haney, Woodall and Kerr, per- forming -for’ Jones, Ba'sler and Cole, respectively, swatted to unguarded spots and two runs were over. Mo- gridge fanned Blue at this juncture and Peck saved further trouble by jumping aloft to snare Cobb's bid for an extra base blow. Against Sylvester Johnson, who graced the slab for Detroit in the seventh. Harri¥ men proceeded to settle the issue, Bucky himself tak- ing a prominent part in the proceed- ings. Peck was franked for a starter and Mogridge was hit_on the hoof with a low hook. Leibold then swatted over Heilman's head for two scoring Peck, and Harris poled to the limits in left for three sacks, registering Mogridge and Lei- boid * The rally was ended abruptly when Goslin lined to Pratt, whose toss to Blue doubled up Rice, Sam being on the runways by virtue of a fielder's choice. A sMiced drive by Heilmann that carried out of the reach of Rich- bourg for three bases, followed by Pratt’s long fly, gave the Tygers a tally in the eighth and this was matched in the fag end of the frame when Peck walked and stole second and Mogridge greeted Kenneth Hol- loway, the third of the Tygers' twirl- ers, with a double to right. Walter Johnson is listed for mound duty against the Indians in their first appearance of ‘the stason here today. His opponent probably will be Jim Joe Edwards, a portsider, who has performed more impressively than any other flinger on the Tribal roster this spring. Mogridge, Peck, Goslin, Rice, Lei- bold, Pratt and Fothergill all pulled noteworthy fielding feats. Pratt's was a blind one-hand stab of a wicked liner by Goslin that led to a double play and snuffed that sev- enth inning rally, but the one .by Fothergill was the most spectacular.

Joe was lifted | yesterday as a precautionary meas- ure for fear the heavy going might aggravate the charley horse he is nursing, and Sam was laid off because of a slight kink that developed in the knee that was injured recently in Boston. Tabaxco Shirley gave a'good ac- count of himself when shoved into the breach at the first sack. The col- legian has spirit, courage and good action for a green performer. As understudy for Judge he is a val- uable man. If he arrives in time from Mobile, where he left the Chattancoga club, Carr Smith will be seen in the local line-up, provided Speaker selects a southpaw for toil, Harris having definitely decided to alternate the Raleigh youngster with Leibold in right field. Umpire Dineen missed one when he called Heilmann safe in the opener. Prothro fumbled Harry's roller, but recovered and lined the ball to Judge half of a step ahead of the burly Tyger. Mogridge was right on the job in round 2 when he leaped to spear Rigney's sharp bounder with his bare fin and tossed him out Cobb’s bingle in the sixth was a horseshoe affair, his roller taking an odd hop far over Prothro's head. Goslin’s productive triple in round 6 was a vicious clout, the ball carry- ing on against the right field fence, high above Heilmann's head. CHAUFFEUR-FIGHTER WINS HIS FIRST BOUT SAN JOSE, Calif., May 14.—Floyd Glotzbach, chauffeur, former husband of Mme. Margaret Matzenauer, opera singer, won his first public bout here last night when he knocked out Danny Gallagher, Oakland, in two seconds. The men are heavyweights. The Del Monte chauffeur, whom Mme. Matzenauer referred to as her “wild mustard,” is being coached as & prospective contender for the heavy- weight title against Jack Dempsey. It was as a car driver that Mme. Matzenauer met Glotzbach at Del Monte. After a brief and romantic courtship the diva and the chauffeur went to Europe and were married in Carlsbad, Czechoslovakia, After a few months of married life Glotzbach and his wife separated. Glotzbach’s version of the separation was that he did not want to play lady’s maid. Mme. Matzenauer's ver- sion ‘'was that her father kicked her husband out. < Your Old Hat ~® MadeNew Again Cleaning, Blecking and Remodeling by Experts.

The Cardinal victory was Haines’ second win in four days from the Giants, whose young pitchers failed again. All teams in both leagues were en- gaged yesterday.

ATTACKS GAMBLING ON NEW YORK RACES NEW YORK, May 14—Charging that bookmaking has been allowed to flourish on New York tracks, “in plain defiance of the law,” Rev. S. Edward Young, president of the So- clety for the Prevention of Crime, bas issued a statement demanding the elimination of gambling from horse-racing. The statement was made public after five men charged with book- making at the Jamaica race track in 1923 . pleaded guilty in the court of special session, Jamaica, yesterday. Each was sentenced to ten days in the workhouse, but sentence was sus- pended conditional upon good be- havior. The statement asserted that despite protests made to city and county offi- cials as to gambling at tracks, no effective measures were taken by them to stop the evil. ————— Ray Morgan, former senatorial sec- ond sacker, recently attached to the ‘Washington pay roll, has entered upon his duties as scout and will take a trip through the corn pone belt. feather- is ex- to Washington Ath- ™ The New 1924 “Deer PHead” - CIGAR is better than ever There's a Washington's prefer “Deer reason why cigar smokers Heads* Try one today and learn for yourself.

The decision was unanimously ac- corded Renzo by the referee and judges. Renzo's weight was given at 158 |and Schultz's at 153, but the former was much more rugged than his op- ponent in appearance. _Schultz often forced the fighting and early in the match landed frequently, but al he was well punished by the Wash- ingtonian. Twice Renzo hit Schultz hard enough to send him spinning against the ropes, but never was able to follow up any advantage he gained over the Philadelphian to score a knock-out. The eight-round semi-final brought together Jack Ryan, welterweight, and Billy Gannon, lightweight, both of Baltimore. Gannon is a scrapper of the southpaw variety, and worried his heavier opponent considerably in the early rounds, but from the sixth round on Ryan's heavier punches be- gan to tell, and he was given a de- cision. Young Jack Kauffman of Washing- ton made short work of his encounter with Terry Hopkins of Baltimore, an oldtimer.

Montbs ago Fitzsimmons announced that he had secured the approval of Descamps for a bout between Carpen- tier and Gibbons. Somewhat later Gibson produced a signed comtract for a prior date between Carpentier and Gene Tunney, American light heavyweight champion. It was inti- mated at the time that the Gibbons bout had been shunted by Descamps upon information furnished from America that it was uncertain of ful- fillment. \ Fitzsimmons came to New York and offered Gibson $30,000 for the con- tract, but the latter refused. The next’ move was from Paris, where Curley secured the Gibbons fight, Gib- son threatened to invoke the law and, Curley said, boasted that Carpentier would not leave New York. 4™ Sebring “Cords” a Every Tire a First in Factory Wrapper or $8.50 3= $§14.25 Px$14.95 I $§15.50 CORD TIRE SALES CO. 2025 14th St. N.W. fray stey | da of thou- Frost Company.

CHICAGO HAS A CONTENDER Shortstop, Performing at 1922 Gait, Will Make Formidable Aggregation of Killefer’s Club, Which Is Deficient Only in Batting. BY JOHN B. FOSTER. N EW YORK, May 14—While little attention has been paid to i, perhaps no move made in the National League since the season started has greater possibilities of making the race tighter than the return of Hollocher to the Chicago Cubs. Hollocher has not actually gotten under way vet. and everything, so far as Chicago is concerned just now, depends upon the showing that he makes. If he is the Hollocher of old, Chicago fans will say that hé ic the best shortstop in the National League. If he is not the Hollocher oi old the Cubs will have gained nothing. Hollocher will supplant a man who can field well—Adams—but who will never be a hitter of the Hollocher type if he serves all his life ir the major leagues. Adams is about a .260 hitter if the pitching against him is good. This year he hasn't been going very good, although he found the Brooklyn pitchers for a 400 average in the series against the Robins. Base Ball AS BIG LEAGUERS PLAY IT | POSITION OF FIRST | BASEMAN AWAITING- A THROW - What should be the position a first baseman awaiting a throw? Answered by GEORGE KELLY Baseman, New York Giants, Famousn of |first base. | Rl oy A first baseman should place him- self a few inches in front of the bag so he can shift to either side, de- pending on the throw. There isn't any set rule in regard to which foot should be used for the put-out, as it all depends on the throw. If the ball is thrown on the left side, you touch the bag with the right foot and vice versa. (Copyright, 1924, Associated Editors, Inc.) MINOR LEAGUE RESULTS SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION.

Unless can build some up, or find some the minors, his club has no chance f the pennant. Much Depends on Hellocher.

That may seem a ludicrousiy small number, but it would jump th club a place or two in_the percenta, column. And the Cubs are ne enough to the top so that that ma mean the difference between winninz and losing a pennant. There has been a gap in the Ch cago infield ever since Hollocher left It would not have seemed o much of a gap if Hollocher had not been ing it before. The outficld never has had the hitting punch that Pitte. | burgh, Cincinnati and New York hav |had, and_that has been one of the reasons the Cubs have been unabl | come through. The fast team in the spring is a | championship possibility if it has re- | serve to be the fighting team at the | finish, but if the strength isn't t | the spring work is wasted. The Cu have lacked that reserve in the past Cubs Need Heavier Hitting. If they can raise their batting per. centage by adding a wallop to the infield, as well as putting a player on the field who can cover more ground than any infielder they have, and if |they can put three or four more points on their outfield batting, they may yet take a wicked bite or two out of the teams that are strugsling for the pennant. They owe much of their present standing to the fact that they have licked St. Louis in seven games o of eight this season. Cincinnati has beaten them in six out of eight, bu: Cincinnati is one of the teams they must thrash to win a pennant.
