N Part 4—4 Pages Griffs Split With R CHAMPIONS FOLLOW 94 SETBACK WITH 7-2 WIN Boston Pounds Trio of Twirlers in Morning Game, But Ruether Outpitches Ehmke in Nightecap. Goslin Poles Homer Over the Fence. BY BPENMAN THOMPSON. Sports Editor, The Sta HE difference between throwing and pitching was illustrated in the activitics of the Nationals yesterday. berry nor Russell able to puzzle Boston batsmeh the Nationals fin- ished on the short end of a 9-to-4 count in the first of the two games Then, with Ruether flinging in fine form, the tables were turned on the visitors in the second setto, the Griffmen winning.handily, 7 to 2. Their inability to get better than an even break with the Fohlmen ionals to lose a full lap in their struggle for the league Athlctics followed a in the morning at Philadelphia with a 6-to-5 triumph over a 14-inning route As the net result of their holiday endeavors Bucky Harris and his gang now are four full games in the rear of the front- played. caused the N Icadership, as the in the afterncon running Mackmen. Fifteen blows for a total of 26 bases explains the forenoon disaster, three doubles and four triples being evolved off the trio of Jocal boxmen. Zachary, while not up to his usual standard, hurled about as well as Fred Wing- field, the former Griffman, and after the seventh inning when both had faded from the scene the count stood knotted at 4 to 4 Marberry Proves Easy. It was what transpired thereafter that told the tale. Marberry was pounced upon when he made his ap- pearance in the eighth round, a double, two singles and a pass, yielding one run and a fully loaded set of sacks. Then Charles Ruffin, the huge rookie, ucceeded Wingfield in the | and bat because eving was who came to intentionally that cleared the bases. Marberry lin- gered long enough to yield a second three-bagger to Boone in the ninth, and when Vache solved Russell for a double, another tally was in. Ruffin held the Griffmen at bay dur- ing the last two rounds. It was no less distinguished a per- former than Howard Ehmke who was made to suffer in the evening engage- ment for the set-back received in the morning. : Ehmke Upset in Final. Goslin's circuit swat over the right fleld fence with Rice aboard by virtue of his single, got the Griffmen off to a two run lead in the first inning. Peck’s single and steal, and a safety by Ruel netted another tally in the third, and after being repulsed for two rounds the champions registered two more at the expense of Ehmke. In the fifth Ruether crashed a safety past Wamby, took third on Rice’s ram to. right and, after Sam plifered, Dutch counted on Stan Harris" fly to Boone. A pass to Bluege blazed the trail for the marker made in the sixth. Oss was forced by Peck, who galloped to third on Ruel's rap to right and toed the rubber when Ruether shunted a safe- ty to center. - Up to this time Ruether had toiled in effective fashion, vielding but a single in each of the second and third in- nings, and escaping from a hole in the sixth when Flagstead doubled and Boone singled. Red Sox Count Twice. A trio of taps grouped in the seventh produced the pair of Boston tallies, Ezzell of the regulars, and Connally and Heving from the reserves, con- necting for the productive singles Fuhr looked able when he set the Jationals down in order in the seven- th, but he was mulcted for two wholly unnecessary runs in the eighth, when Bluege singled and scored all the way from first on Peck’s one-baser to left-| center, Rajah taking second \on the throw-in_and_reaching the counting block, after Ruel beat out a bunt, when Ruether drilled into a double- play. . Covey to Oppose Slim Harriss Of A.s in Battle Here Today HE recently enlarged Clark Griffith Stadium is likely to be taxed k ity today when the sensational men of Mack, fresh from their triumphs over the Yankees, visit the Capital to occupy the attention of the Nationals before they trek np to New York for to its capa T four days, starting tomorrow. Having.discovered that they can look for little assistance from the other six teams in checking the A’s, the world champions are alive to the fact that they will have to do the job themselves and hope to start this afternoon. To Stan Coveleskie, veteran spit ball manipulator, will be entrusted the task of halting the pace setters. Cov did just that thing here last Tues- day, when he got an 11-to-2 verdict over Groves, but his task today promises to be tougher, for he will have to con- tend against Bryan Harriss, the hoo- doo hurler who contrives to worry the champions with his when he can't do it with his pitching arm. Fielding features were few and far between in the forenoon affray ves- terday, but Stan Harris and Peck teamed up to give the fans something to enthuse over in the evening engage- ment. Bucky raced to the far side of the midway in round two to gef Vache's ¥ roller and throw him out. He chased i deep into center field for the out- flelder's acrial offering in the sixth, and made a fine play in the eighth in knocking down the same athlete’s single close to the foul line, recovering the ball and flagging Boone as he slid into Bluege's station. 5 Peck's contribution was circus play at the expense of Flagstead in the seventh. Rajah dived headlong to his right to grab Flaggy's hot smash, and ‘while sprawled on the ground ferried the ball to Stan Harris Yor a force out at the midway Goslin’s_circuit wallop in the open- ing round of the final game was the first drive by a Washington player to clear the right field barrier this sea- son, although Todt did it in the first appearance here this year of the Red Sox, Walter Johnson being his victim. Goose's drive soared over the W. B. & A. sign. The fact that Leon was peeved over having been held hitless in the morning, after getting at least one bingle in 21 straight games, doubt- less added power to his swing.

C, SUNDAY MORNING, 'CROWNED KING OF LIGHT HEAVIES PAUL BER BERLENBACH LENBACH. WINS TITLE ' BY OUTPOINTING McTIGUE OVER 15-ROUND DISTANCE By the Associated Press. ¥ weight ring crown passed to ANKEE STADIUM, New York, May 30.—The world light-heavy- the head of a fourth new champion in three years tonight when the skill and genecralship of the ve- eran Mike McTigue yielded to the determined two-fisted assault of youth ful Paul Berlenbach of Astoria, N. Y., in a hard-fought 15-round battle before a capacity crowd of 40,000 spectators. In spite of the fact that he had promised an offensive fight to dis- pose of his challenger by a knockout steady retreat from rope to rope, which fai the aggressive Berlenbach. In vain final round, and for the first time i stand came too late, and the judges rendered a speedy verdict for the, challenger. Neither man was in danger of a knockout at any point. Although Berlenbach repeatedly foreed the titleholder against the ropes and lunged at his body and chin desper ately with hard rights and lefts, the crafty McTigue slipped away from him and dodged to cover. Time after time McTigue made the challenger miss his dangerous left leads in the center of the ring. but the Astoria man was not to be denied. He kept bpring in on the champion | and redeemed =very miss with a solid punch on the shifting McTigue until he had finally opened cuts over his eyes and mouth and bruised the flesh at his sides. Berlenbach, fighting the twenty. sixth bout of his professional career, sald after the match that he had been unable to attain his best con- dition for the fight, claiming that he had been threatened with diphtheria at the training camp. This compelled him, he sald, to discontinue his work- outs temporarily. He failed to show lack of condition once he swung into aution, however, and was far stronger at every point of the match than was the champion. The crown transferred tonight to the dark-thatched head of the former Olympic wrestling champion had been held for only two vears by McTigue, who had lifted the title from the con- queror of Georges Carpentier—Bat- tling Siki. Only once before had McTigue step- ped into the ring with a challenger to 4 decision. 1In this fight he had boxed 0 an unpopular draw verdict with %’nung Stribling in Georgia. Later he lost newspaper decisions to both Stribling and the welterweight cham- gjon, Mickey Walker, at Newark, N, J. Berlenbach Starts Fast. (Berlenbach opened his bid for the championship tonight with a rush, tearing in at McTigue with left Tunges to body and head and working his rights at close quarters as the cham pion went to the ropes to cover with both hands. For the first four rounds of the fightwthe champion observed a caution which permitted Berlenbach to do all the forcing and leading. McTigue appéared slow, and although he stuck out a feeble left at the chal- lenger as he rushed to-close quarters, he later fell back almiost entirely on a straight right as a counter. Frequently McTigue, retreating steadily before the sturdy Astoria fighter, turned completely around and danced away from the attack of his oppenent. But, although he avoided many of the challenger’s leads, the champlon was unable to hold off Ber- lenbach as they crashed into the ropes where Payl pumped both hands vigor- ously to body and head. The sixth, seventh and eighth were the champfon’s only good rounds. He beat Berlenbach to the hunch with his Stff right cross in these rounds, and made the challenger miss often by slilpping under his left hooks and side- stepping his rights. In the-last five rounds of the battle, however, Berlen- bach creashed home terrific wallops to the head, and it finally became ap- parent that the champion could only retain his title in the closing rounds: by a knockdut. McTigue's kers sent him out to make & final stand in’ the fifteenth, after Berlenbach had pounded him vigorously in the - two preceding rounds, and gamely the champion went to the task. He rushed at Berlenbach and backed him into the fopes as he piled solid . rights and lefts, but the latter soon indicated he e fodce than willing to exchange with passing -champion. .

It was give and take, with the challenger losing nothing. Mec Tigue had the skill and the coura but the finishing punch which w necessary at that point to save him was missing. Two other contenders for the title stepped before the throng to clean- cut victories. Slattery Scores K. 0. Jimmy Slattery of Buffalo, made the st favorable impression of the night v _quickly disposing of Jack Burke, (Pittsburgh battler, in the second round. Slattery dazed- his opponent with lightning speed and blinded him with a rapld attack in which he threw at Burke every punch known to boxing. After_a spectacular opening round, the Buffalo fighter finally belted Burke with a sweeping left hook and crossed over a right which floored the Pitts- burgh man. Burke had been outclass- ed and as the referee waved him to his corner without permitting a count to be made, the defeated man protested vigorously. The appeal was useless, however, and Slattery became a vic- tor through a technical knockout. Burke weighed 175% and Slattery, 161, Smith Outpoints Conley. George Smith of #Brooklyn, 166 pounds, won all the way over Billy Conley of San Francisco, 163, in a six-round bout. Smith was far superior in the first three rounds, but Conley recovered after accepting several hard shots to” the head, and rallied at the end. Delaney Gets Verdict. Jack Delaney, light-heavyweight of Bridgeport, Conn., took a decisicn from Young Maruilo of New Orleans, in 10-rounds.

Tt seemed that the least sign of faltering might throw the Los Angeles athlete out, and possibly cost his team victory. But after a neck- and-neck race with Moore, Haas and | Wolf for the first 156 yards, he showed the kind of stuff that distinguishes the really great athlete and gradually forged ahead to win by 3 yards. Georgetown Was Handicapped, Georgetown, though it freely was mentioned as a probable winner of the meet, ‘did not make a disappointing showing. The result probably was disappointing to Georgetown support- ers in that they would have liked to win, but considering the men the Blue | and Gray qualified and the absence of two of their stars, Burgess and New- ton, the performance of the Washing- | ton school was exceedingly creditable. | The Blue and Gray made good in the half-mile, as was expected, but it did not have enough men in-the other events to warrant an expectation of winning. Too much depended on Ascher and Haas, and conditions were such they could not produce all that they had opportunity to. And also Georgetown got a bad break in the mile, when Sullivan got a bad spill| at the start. ., Marsters Wins the 880. In the 880, Johnny Holden took the lead for Georgetown and it was not long before, he was accompanied by his teammate, Marsters. The ifftter ran in second place to Holden until the final straightaway, where he went to the front in a great rush to finish the event in 1 minute. 531 seconds. Hold en faltered toward the close and lost second place to Leness of Massachu- setts Tech. Swineburne of Georgetown also was in this event, but was beaten out for fifth place. Haas in each hurdle race encounter- ed a tough proposition. In his first semi-final he was third and was com-| pelled to run another semi-final in | order to qualify for the final. In the | final of the high hurdles he was shut | out. In the semi-final of the 220-yard | low hurdles he again was third and | had to run an extra semi-final for | third and fourth men to qualify for the final. In that final he finished fourth and scored the only 2 points Georgetown got in the hurdle events. Ascher, after running the quarter, was third in the semi-final of the 220.yard dash and had to run an extra semi- final to qualify. He got fourth place in the final for the 2 points George- town got in the dashes. BY H.

Southern California, in the shot put fifth to score 1 point. was counted on as almost u sure winner of the board jump the Hilltoppers, was beaten out for first place in the finals when Norton leaped nearly 24 feet The keeness of the competition in this event may be realized when it is known that all five men who finished in the places jumped between 23 and 24 feet It was Gegan instead of Sullivan who ran an excellent race for George- town in the mile. After Sullivan got his spill and was left 25 vards behind in the first lap, Gegan went out and stayed among the leaders until the end. In the last stretch he made a great spurt and for a second or two appeared strong enough to go out in front, but the two leaders, Tibbetts of Harvard and Theobald of Colum- bia, answered his challenge and he got third place. Georgetown's other three points were scored by Ascher in the 440. Ascler took the lead at the crack of the gun and ran about as fast any quarter-miler ever ram for the first 300 yards, but could not shake off the onrushing Tierney of Holy Cross and Gage of Yale, and had to be content with third position. Two New Records Set. The meet was productive of two new for the intercollegiates. Hoyser's mark of yesterday in the discus stood today and his throw of 150 feet 21, inches, exceeds by more 21 than 10 feet the record made last year Hills in and finished Dowding, who by Hartranft of Stanford. the shot put established the other new mark when he put the 16-pound brass sphere 49 feet 9 5-8 inches, which also beat a record set by Hartranft, 49 feet 5 7-8 inches. orton of Yale and Houser of South ern California were high point scorers The former won the broad jump, got cond in the 100-yard dash and third in the 220-yard dash for a total of 12 points, and for any man to score 12 points in the intercollegiates is a per- formance extraordinary. Houser got first place in the discus and second in the shot for a total of 9 points. Anderson of Southern California also scored in two events, the discus und shot, and Ascher of Georgetown was another to “attaln that distinction. Anderson was third in the discus and third in the shot and Ascher third in the quarter and fourth {n the 220-yard. The showing of Yale and Princeton surprised everybody. Princeton never had been seriously considered by those who thought they knew something of what was going to take place, but came very close to winning. Yale was given a chance by some persons, but ft is doubtful if anybody would have gone so far as to predict that it would do near so well as it did.
