_Part 4—4 Pages WASHINGTON, D. C, SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 2, 1925, =] Nationals Beat Tygers to Gain in Flag Race as White Sox Subjugate Athletics RUETHER GOES THE ROUTE . IN BALKING BENGALS, 9-5 Champions Cut Capers Against Crippled Cobbmen : and With the Aid of Some Lucky Larrups Land on Long End of Mediocre Mix-Up. BY DENMAN THOMPSON, Sports Editor, The Star. i HINGS are looking up a bit for the Nationals Walloping the Tygers by a tally of 9 to 5 yesterday while the Pale Hose were conquering Cornelius McGillicuddy's White Ele- phants in an overtime battle at Philadelphia the base ball champions of the universe clambered back to within a game and a half of the peak in Ban Johnson's circuit. As ball games go the Saturday affair here was nothing to write home about, for aside from a couple of br wow of a stop turned in by Bob Sam Rice and one somewhat illiant catches b, Jones the pastime was mediocre in aspect, but the populace wotted not of the means, being con- cerned merely with the end It was not disposed to consider t he questionable quality of the pitch- ing done by Walter Ruether, the caliber of the bingles evolved by the Nationals nor the poor physical condi of the Bengals who are ailing. The Georgia Peach was hobbling around, a mere shadow of his former self, on a pair of creaking props and with a well defined ache in the center of his diaphragm: Blackie O'Rourke was slowed up by a spiking he in-| cupred two days ago in Quakertown | and the entire Tygertown twirling corps is pretty well shot, with its most formidable member not even on the | scene. Adding to this the fact that more than half of the Washington safeties | were either infield scratches or fluky | loopers to the garden, it becomes ap:- parent that the Griffs were favored | sons of Fortune. But they have been | frowned on frequently by the same dame In the not distant past: so what | of it? Ruether Goes the Route. | Ruether yielded hits ures, handed out passes In a rather | manner and had the bugs stve in practically _every | frame; but at that he was a distinct improvement over “Wild Lil" Stoner and Jess Doyle, the curvers employed | by Cobb, and the fact that he went the entire route was no mean achieve. ment compared with the late lamented Chicago serfes, when not fewer than | 14 Griffmen saw slab duty in the four | games. A reverse of the recent usual| Washington procedure was witnessed in the initial &tanza when only three Tygers faced Ruether. while the Na- tionals combed Stoner for three runs. | McNeely looped @ safety to left cen- | ter at the outset and reached second | ahead of Jones' toss to O'Rourke of | Harris' roller. fice resulted at the midway Rice’s effort to saeri- | Harris being forced | Rice stole second and | Goslin walked, filling the bases.

A quartet of tantalizing bingl together with a pass and a miscue by | Bluege, enabled the Tygers to tie it | up in the second. Cobb had been dis posed of when Heilmann topped a ball to Bluege, who scooped it up with his | bare hand while on the fiy, but| heaved over Judge's head. putting Heilmann on second. Blue oller | past Peck's outstretched fin scored | Heilmann. Jones rainbowed a safety | to right and u pass to Woodall loaded | the sacks. Stoner obligingly popped to Judge, but Rigney's Texas | Leaguer fell untouched in short right field, Blue and Jones crossing the pan. | Ruether then bore down and fanned | O'Rourke. The Griffmen failed to take ad-| vantage of a goldén opportunity in their half, due principally to a bril liant play by Jones. Ruether scratched an Infield hit after Ruel had | died, and McNeely walked. A wicked | smash by Harris was headed for left | field, when Jones raced over and | speared it with one hand to force Mc- Neely at the midway. Rice then was clipped on the foot with a pitched | ball, but Goslin's mighty swing left | the corners crowded when his tower- in in double fig-|B | (Rice, Bluege.

Dutch tightened up after round 5 and was not endangered thereafter till the final frame when Pinch Hitter Neun's single and a miscue by Peck put him m, from which Bluege, Harris and Judge promptly extricated him with a snappy dual killing.

NEW YORK, August 1.—William T. ‘Tilden, 2d.. netional singles champion, tonight appeared before the United States Lawn Tennis Association’s ex- etutive committee to discuss alleged violation of the playef-writer rule by Tilden in giving interviews for news- paper syndication. The - committee went into session with Tilden late in the evening at the Hotel Vanderbilt, announcing that no official availdble until tomorrow night. It was intimated that the hearing would probably extend over several hours. Officials of the tennis -association have privately expressed views indicat- ing that there is a division of opinion as to whether the giving of interviews for newspaper syndication constitu- tes a violation of the player-writer rule. - The question of Tilden’s amateur standing as affected by expression of hix tennis views in the newspapers i comes to the front again at a critical jperiod in the net season.
