Griffs Split Even With Yankees : Harvard Reported Ready to End Big Three Pact MARBERRY WINS IN FINAL AFTER RUETHER IS BEATEN After Being Limited by Jones to Six Scattered Hits ationals Pound Trio of New Yorkers for 19, Inciuding Two Homers by Goslin. BY JOHN B. KELLER. August 14 EW YORK day’s double Nationals and Yankecs broke even in to- cader, Bucky Harris’ crew grabbing the second part of the bill by a 10-to-3 count after dropping the first to the Hug- | men. 4 to 2 - The ecarly encounter was a mound duel between Dutch Reuther and Sad Sam Jones, with the latter having the advantage over the southpaw all the way. The closing clash was a slugfest with Fred Marberry | weathering the storm of the Yankee hits in fine fashion, while Urban Shocker, Sam Braxton and Herb McQuaid all felt the sting of the National hats severcly Four homers gave the fans plenty of thrills. The two clouted in the first game flew from Yankee war- clubs, Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth both poiing the hall into the right The Bambino's swat total for such ers season field biea raised his clouts to 38 Goose did the four-base socking in the secons o. He got one in the first inning Shacker that scored a man ahead and got another when he led off the ninth against McQuaid. Both of the Goose's <mashes went into Ruth’s faverite parking place. Goslin now has to his credit 16 homers for this campaign. There was little punch to the Nationals' attack in the first game. They got only six hits off Jones and those were spread through five in- nings. Half of the wailops figured in the making of their brace of markers, but the two passes that Jones granted were needed to back up one of the hits to bring a tally. The Champs’ 1 run came in the only round of which they clustered blows, a couple of doubles doing the work Reuther was touched for nine hits, all singles except the circuit clouts o GOOSE GOSLI secor by Gehrig and Ruth, and handed out two passes.

He is a welt built youngster of 5 feet 10 or 11 inches, weighs about 170 pounds and appears to have plenty of strength. “For a lad who is secing prac- tically his first season in profes- sional ball—his previous experi- ence having been confined to the Cotton States leagues—he shas a remarkable amount of steadiness. He beat Crowder, 5 to 1, in the game I saw him pitch and I was impressed then by his almost perfect control more than any- thing else. Many Southern League are of the opinion that Lisenbee is a better pitcher than Crowder, and you'll have to ad- mit that the General looks pretty good for a recruit. “At the time I looked him over Lisenbee had iwon 18 games and lost X, Nince then ke had the shoulder of his pitching arm hurt in a collision on the base lines and hasn't worked much, but the in- Jjury isn't belicved to be serious, and if he fully recovers we'll have him report as soon as the Southern season ends, September 19, so Manager Harris can get a line on him.” With Lisenbee, Crowder, Had- ley, Murray and Morrell already lined up to supplement the efforts of such veterans as Johnson, Ruether, Coveleskie and Mar- berry, the Washington club has made considerable progress in its effort to obtain strength where it is most needed—on the slab— and more may be added before the athletes hike to Florida for Spring training next year. Maintaining discipline among the Pirates is no casy job, judged by the latest flare-up in Pitts- burgh. The passing of ‘the vet- crans Max Carey, Babe Adams and Carson Bigbee as a result of their efforts to oust Fred Clarke from the bench as managerial as- sistant to Bill McKechnie follows an earlier shake-up which re- sulted in_ fines and for ‘“disinterested comes in the wake of the period of turmoil that prevailed when the antics of a group of happy- go-luckies led by the irresponsible Rabbit Maranville euchered the Corsairs out of a couple of pen- nants that might otherwise have been theirs. It is rather surprising that as level-headed a chap as Carey, a real star for more than a decade and who by means of his field leadership and individual bril- liancy as a performer played such a prominent part in the Pirates’ triumph last season, first in the National League campaign and then against the Griffmen in the world series, should be mixed up in_this row.
