BY JOHN B. KELLER. 5 OSTON, July 4—Fifty-fifty base ball was played by the Nationals B in the Independence day double-header here this afternoon and the champions got only what they deserved—a fifty-fifty result Lurid pitching by a couple of the members of Bucky Harris' mound corps and the general inability of the Nationals to take advantage of the many scoring opportunitics offered them in the opening portion of the bi 7-to-4 winners, But aided by some good slabbing and a healthier attack, the cham- second half of the program to grab a 5-to-1 pions came to life in the victory.

Things were different in the second tilt of the day in so far as the Na tionale were concerned. Curly Ogden, this season, gave & hibition, while he and his teammate: lubbed Fred Wingfield with enthusi asm, once they found the range Plenty of Red ot at Ogden’'s expense, around proved to be most of ‘them While| Curly was doing_such good work the Nationals gave Wingfield a rough time. They hit him safely in all frames except one, and in the lat- ter part of the fray socked him hard enough to break a tie that had existed since round 3 and add to their total handsomely. In all, 13 swats were made by the champions off the former member of their flo one of them being Moon Harris' homer in the| ninth. That blow made the slamming of homers here a daily occurrence of First Battle. started scoring in inning of the initial game. Ehmke fanned Severeid and Gregg in this round McNee pass. A single by Bucky Harris ad vanced Earl a base and Rice's one- baser over Rogell's head tallied Mc Neely and sent Bucky to the far corner.

Then Prothro pilfered second and counted with Flagstead when Vache slashed a single through the box. However, the Nationals back into the lead immediately. Moon iarris walked to start the fourth frame and was singled to second by Bluege. Peck fouled to Vache, but a pass to Severeid filled the hassocks. After Gregg fouled a pitch he was re- placed at bat by Leibold. Nemo shot a liner to right, but it was foul by inches. Then he smashed to Ehmke, but with an easy double play in sight the pitcher fumbled, giving the batter a life and letting Moon Harris count. McNeely popped to Lee in short left, but Boss Bucky slapped a single to right that tallied Bluege and Severeld and shoved Leibold to third ase.

Zach Faces Yanks Here Today; Champs in Crippled Condition | OSTON B one dependable, “Stan” <till is too uncertain according to Manager Harris, So serlous is tke pitching shortage at present that Harris probably will have to start against the Yankees in the Sunday game at Washington the southpaw Zachary, who will have had but two days of rest after being driven from the slab here. In all likelihood, Spencer Pumpelly, ex-Yale slabman, who has been show- ing his wares in practice with the champlons for more than a week, will be attached to the mound staff at least temporarily in_an effort to re- lieve the situation. This rangy right- hander is to be used Monday when the champlons meet the Pirates in an exhibition game at Pittsburgh and he may be needed during the West- ern tour. Johnson was feeling better this evening when the Nationals left for Washington, but his three-day ill- ness has left him rather weak and he Is not likely to be available for mound service for several days. Ruether’s leg is improving, too, but it still pains him sufficiently to inter- fere with his pitching stride. Until these veterans fully recover from their allments the Nationals are apt to have their troubles, in so far as pitching is concerned. Although the Nationals generally are credited with being a better club than last vear, they certainly are not showing as much speed at present as July 4—With Walter Johnson feeling none too well and Dutch Reuther still limping as a result of the blow he received on his right shin during Thursday’s double-header here, the Nationals are not so well fortified with pitchers. Coveleskie, fully fit for duty, for Jez Zachary in his work to be considered in that class. Marberry is too valuable for relief duty to be used as a starting hurler, while Vean Gregg, Curley Ogden are not such good risks. they did during their pennant-win- ning season.

Griffs Take Lead in Final. In_the second part of the dugl bill, the Nationals were the first to break into the run column, hanging up a score in the second round. Joe Harris began the frame with a crash to center for two bases and Bluege sac- |rificed. Peck lofted to Flagstead in short center, but Ira did not make a so Moon was able to count after the catch.

Thereafter both clubs were kept away from the plate until the seventh inning, double plays checking the champipns in the third, fifth and sixth sessions, while a good throw by Rice, who had fielded Todt's hit, that cut down Carlyle at third base killed a Red Sox rally in round four. Champs Get Busy Again. The champfons dented the plate in| the seventh and eighth. In the for- mer, Goslin singled and counted when | Bluege doubled against the left field fence after Moon. Harris popped to Lee. Ogden opened the eighth with a one-baser to center, McNeely sacri-| ficed, and following Bucy Harris' re- tirement Rice tripled to right center enabling Curly to romp to the final statfon. Sam died at third base, for Goslin popped to Lee. In the seventh the Sox were a bit troublesome. A single and Bluege's wild throw put runners on first and second bases, but Rogell was forced out at third when Heving bunted, Wingfield allowed a third strike to go by and Flagstead forced out Heving. More National markers were-record- | ed in the ninth. Moon Harris opened | the session with a _clout over the left field fence.

Really the Nationals now have | Fred Allen Russell and leg stiffness that has slowed him to a considerable extent and Joe Judge's underpinniig has been functioning so poorly that Moon Harris may stick around first base for some time. Picinich sent a hot smash down the third base line to start the Red Sox third, but Bluege jumped in the path of the ball for a startling stop and retired him. McNeely was cheated of a hit in the fourth when Lee ran far back into left field for a nifty catch. When Boone whiffed in the eighth, Severeld heaved to Bluege for a play on Flagstead, who attempted to pilfer third. Ossie punched Ira with the ball and the latter was waved out, but when thé sphere was dropped by the third sacker Umpire Connol]y reversed his decision. Before Grounding to Ehmke in’ the ninth, Goslin sent a drive into the right field pavilion that was foul by a couple of yards only. A homer at the time would have deadlocked the game, for there were two Nationals on the bases. In round 1 of the second game Wingfield was knocker down by Rice’s sharp liner, but clung to the ball.

LA COSTE BEATS BOROTRA FOR BRITISH By the Associated Press. IMBLEDON, tonight holds the all-Englar cut fashion today in a match witnes The score was 6—3, 6—3, 4—6, 8—6. La Coste played a steady, strategic game, devoid of sensationalism, against an opponent who repeatedly performed the almost impossible in bnl!iun([ strokes at the net, but whose lack of precision in long rallies and faulty service finally spelled his own defeat. | Mlle.

Mcllquaham of England, 6—2, | | Borotra Weak at Start. | Borotra played poorly in the begin ning of the match, double-faulting 11 times in the first two sets and consistently driving outside or back of the base line. Even his work at the net lacked in usual fire and his volley ing was less well placed than hereto fore in the tournament La Coste, upon the other hand, was cool and playing in his best form. He outgeneraled Borotra, keeping him at | the base line with long lobs that fre-| _ quently dusted the chalk from the line | and then waited his chance for a well placed kill in the rally. Borotra was not back in form until the third set, when he took the offen- | without a break. The score was 5—32 in Borotra’s favor in this set before the younger player could get well started. La Coste took two more games, but Borotra took the final deuce game with a beautiful place- ment from the net. Superhuman Effort Wins. He continued on the offensive in the final set, running the score to 4—1, but his stroking again became erratic under the steady fire of his opponent, and La Coste, with a superhuman ef- fort, evened the score at 4—4. They were agaln even at 6—8, but La Coste took the next two games, winning the set. In'the last three games both men rose to their greatest heights. La Coste was more steady and confident, however, and had the winning stroke when a crisis demanded it. The games score was as follows: Third set Fourth set. Borotra: First get... Second set. Third set. . Fourth set. 1 24252 Borotra served 17 double faults in the four sets; La Coste had one. Baron Von Kehrling of Hungary won the “all England plate,” a conso- lation prize competed for by those de- feated in the first two rounds of the tournament. He defeated R. George of France, 6—3, 6—4. Doubles Matches Monday. The doubles and mixed doubles titles will be decided on Monday, when Ray Casey and John Hennessey, the Amer- ican pair, will meet Borotra and La Coste, and Baron de Morphurgo of Ttaly and Miss Elizabeth Ryan, f merly of California, will meet Borotra and Mlle.

Hoover, after a conversation with Beresford’s father today, said he hoped the mattér would be smoothed over in spite of the action elready taken, and that a race would be arranged with Beresford, jr. He discussed the subject fully with the elder Beresford, pointing out to him that his club had backed him financially to come to England with the sole object of chal- lenging for the cup. He had merely participated in the diamond sculls be- cause he happened to be in England, but with this his club was not con- cerned. Hoover felt that in view of the fact his challenge had been issued before he left the United States it would be unsportsmanlike not to give him the opportunity of competing with Beres- ford, and he would certainly be very much disappointed if a contest could not be arranged.
