Southpaw Jinx Again Floors Nationals : Harvard-Yale Athletes Defeat Britons INDIANS CAPTURE FINAL OF SET, & Griffs Get but Three Hits Off Miller as Redskins Pound Jones for Ten. C again this afternoon. They solved Walter Miller's south- paw slants for only three hits and were defeated by the Indians, 6 to 1, in the series final. It was the second succes- sive licking handed them by a left- bander in the series and made the set fhree games to one against ‘Walter Johnson's charges. Sad Sam Jones opposed Miller and was nicked for 10 hits, six of them for sxtra bases. There was but one error made behind Jones and it did not af- fect the scoring. All the Indian tallies were earned. The Tribe failed to hit Jones in only two of the innings they faced him and in but one of the six innings in which they hit did they fail to tally. Three Homers Recorded. LEVELAND, July 13.—Helpless against the left-handed jinx, the Nationals were trimmed Three homers were clouted during the | pastiming. Sam Rice hit the first one, opening the fourth inning by driving | the ball by Earl Averill to the fartherest reaches of center field. Bib Falk and Dick Porter socked tribal four-basers, Bib lifting the ball over the right-field wall in the fourth frame and Dick in sixth. So effective was Miller’s pitching that only seven Nationals got on base. Three hit their way to the paths, a fielder’s choice put one on and Miller issue three passes. Two of the walks ‘went Ossie Bluege's way, In addition to Rice, who completed the circuit, but one National who got on passed first base. Bluege reached the far corner when Muddy Ruel singled after two were out in the seventh ses- sion. And that was the only time the Nationals had as many as two on the Tunway at once. A brace of hits netted the Indians a tally in the first frame. One was out when Joe Sewell cracked a two-baser to left center and the run went over when Averill whacked a one-baser to right. Rice let the ball get by for an error that enabled Averill to continue to the middle base and more scoring seemed likely when Fonseca drew a walk to bring the dangerous Falk to the | plate. All Bib did, though, was advance Averill a notch by forcing out Fonseca and the threat was gone when Porter rolled out. Another Indian marker was chalked up in the third. Jamieson singled and Joe Sewell sacrificed. Averill's slow bounder went directly under Myer fo| right for a one-baser and Jamieson | raced to the counting block. | In the first three rounds. Bluege the only National to dent the run He was franked to the initial sack by Miller after two were out in the second session, but it meant nothing for Jamie- son made a circus catch of Ruel's lazy looper. Rice Hits for Circuit. The first hit off Miller came in_the fourth and it was a healthy one. Rice pasted a twisting liner toward center and Averill attempted a shoe-top grab. The ball got by the gardener, though, | g and rolled to deepest center, allowing Rice to make the circuit. This fourth proved a home-run in- ning for the Tribe, too, for Falk ham- mered the first pitch that came his way, lofting the ball over the right field barrier. Judge got the second Washington hit, a single scratched off Fonseca's glove ter one was out in the sixth, only to be forced out by Rice. Then in the latter part of the frame the Indians countered with a second homer. Porter this time hit the ball over the right |} field screen. The seventh saw both sides hit. but only the Indians scored. In the Wash- ington half, Bluege drew a pass after two were gone and rambled to third | when Ruel hit for a base. Cronin, how- | ever, was flagged by Gardner's throw from deep short. Tt was & pass to Gardner that started the Tribe on its way to two mere markers. Miller sacrificed and Jamie- son_skied out, but Joe Sewell and Averlll smote doubles. That was all. RECORD, OF GRIFFMEN Batting. .

KELLER. 1 LEVELAND, July 13—Firing the | manager of a big league club that fails to make & brave show- ing is a popular pastime with base ball followers about this time every year and with the Nationals down, seemingly to stay, Walter John- son is one of the pilots slated for re- moval at the end of the season by the Tumor mongers. From the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico the wise boys have the Big Train “through” as manager of the Washing- ton club when the present campaign is concluded, even though the contract he.signed last Fall calls for a three- year term at the helm. Little things like contracts don't worry the rumor mongers when they are firing & man tabbed as a failure in base ball. Nor does a contract stand in the way of a club owner when he particularly wants to dispose of & manager. The | owner generally finds some way to re- duce the contract to a mere scrap of paper. Thus far, however, the Wash- ington ownership has not intimated that it desires to oust Johnson and Johnson has not stated he will be ready to step out at the end of the Son as some in the base ball world declare. Club Is a Failure. Johnson's club is & decided failure. ‘There is no doubt as to that. But there is some doubt as to whether the club's failure is due to faulty managing by Johnson. For, after all, a ball club is & group of individuals each working his way and supposedly to the best of his ability and no manager can accom- plish more than his club allows him to accomplish. The second guessers see many mis- takes in Johnson's handling of the Nationals this year. Which is natural. It's always easy to figure how some- thing could have been attempted in another way after the original en- deavor falled to succeed. Perhaps the real reason for the fail- ure of the Nationals is that they were by no means as as they were sup- posed to be when they were burning up the grapefruit league in the South dur- ing the training period. Either the Nationals were playing above their heads in the exhibition games in March and early April or their foes were so far shy of playing condition that they made the Nationals look ex- ceptionally strong in comparison. Anyway, the difference between the Nationals and their opponents in the Spring training was so great that vet- eran ball observers fell over one another in their rush to the wires to tell the folks in the North and West what a great ball club Walter John- son had. And all the advance glori- fication the Nationals received has made their failure more marked. Selection Pleased Fans. ‘When Johnson was signed as man- ager of the Washington club last Fall his appointment to the leadership of the club he had served so faithfully through more than two decades as one of the greatest pitchers base ball ever saw, was hailed with delight by the e’s followers throughout the coun- g: It was fitting, they felt, that the man who had been such a figure in the national pastime should be put at the helm of the only club he had played with in major league base 3 ‘There were some, though, who saw in Johnson’s appointment as Washing- ton manager to the only an avpulm fared years’ splurge in championship According to their reasoning, the iny ownership hoped to make a gate af tion of a manager who was one of the 's idols even though the club on the field was not so attractive. ‘There were others, too, who doubted ;‘.]"1 ability. They of the Nationals was given then a club composed in the mein of ex-big leaguers that was ex- pected to drive its way to the top of the circuit or thereabout by sheer power. But it was not long after the season started that the Bears were floundering around the bottom of the league, the unfriendly crities of the new Washi n helmsman pointed out, and with Johnson’s failure to enforce discipline the Bears went from bad to worse. ‘Walter Lacking in Drive. A great fellow, Johnson, many held. None better. A man commanding the respect of every one, on and off the ball fleld. But with all this, had he the drive, the inspiring qualities so neces- | sary in the manager of a big league club? And this question stumped & lot | of them, even those who most earnest- ly desired to see Walter succeed in his new job. Now, after Johnson has been in charge of the Washington club nearly half the season, the almost general opinion is that he has not the drive needed to get. the most out of his players, the drive needed to keep them in fighting trim at all times, and that he is not an inspiring leader on the ball feld. It is charged generally that Johuson deals with his players too softly, that while they respect him personally they do not take seriously his managerial admonitions. ‘This, the rumor mongers who would fire him at the end of the season say, has been partly responsible for the Nationals’ poor showing in the American League race. ‘There is a rumor circulating through the league that even the Washington ownership at the conclusion of the club’s training season feared Johnson lacked the drive and fire a manager needs and sought to enlist the aid of & veteran player in the Nationals’ ranks in providing this drive and fire. Under such a system, Johnson would be tacti- cal manager, but the veteran player would become the inspiring leader. Something novel, if true, in base ball. ‘With the Washington club about hopelessly sunk in the second division| K of the circuit, the rumor mongers are|Zach: finding many reasons for the passing of Johnson at the close of the cam- paign. Walter, though, may prove more of & fighter, than they think. He certainly isn’t ready to quit by any means and there’s no official of the Washington club hinting that the Na- tionals’ flop means the ax for the Big Train when the curtain falls on the campaign in October. % TBIP}.E DERBY WINNER.

YANKS TAKE PAR AND GAIN O A Sent 14 Innings to Capture Final—Ruth Swats His 19th Home Run. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, July 13.—The Yankees took both ends of a double-header from the White Sox here today by 4 to 2 over the regulation route in the open- er and by 6 to 5 in 14 innings in the nightcap. The double victory enabled the champions to clip one full game from the lead of the Athletics, who broke even in St. Louis and dropped to a point only 72 games to the fore of the Hugmen. The veterans, Tom Zachary and Ur- ban Faber, opposed each other in the first game, which was decided in Zach- ary's favor in the seventh by Bill Dickey’s home run. ‘The Yankees won the second game in the fourteenth when Gehrig’s dou- ble nt Robertson home. ~Clancy opened the home half with a triple, but Wilcy Moore retired the next three men on easy chances. Babe Ruth hit his nineteenth home run in the fifth inning of the nightcap with one on and McKain pitching.

Time utes, & | score at 31 and then the Havens broth- - |ers did their stuff in the tilting to give hits—Metsler, Kamm, o i HOSE two stalwart veterans of Washington Canoe Club, Havens brothers, Bud and Bill, who for years have done much to keep their organization on the map in the paddling world, saved the club from defeat in its own regatta yesterday on the Potomac. They turned the trick in the tilting contests, the final event on the program. Enter- ing this contest with their club tied with Yonkers Canoe Club at 31 points, Bud Havens proceeded to win the event and Brother Bill landed second place. This made Washington's total 39 points, a margin of eight points over the sec- ond-place Yonkers outfit. Philadelphia Canoe Club was third with 17 points, followed by Inwood Canoe Club of New York City with 13; Bristol Young Men's Association of Bristol, Pa.. with 11, and Potomac Boat Club of this city with 6. | It was the second straight year that | | Washington has barely contrived to| vanquish Yonkers to win the District | club’s regatta. Veteran Paddlers Score. Yonkers made an auspicious start and until the late stages of the regatta it appeared that its young team was des- tined to triumph over the host club. many of whose best bets are old-timers as canoeists go. Had Yonkers con- trived to win it would have marked the first defeat the Red and Black has ever suffered in its regatta. By no means do the Havens brothers get all the glory for Washington's dra- matic win. The 41-year-old veteran, Harry Knight, and Marc Fore and Ernest Shepard, other paddlers of long experience, had a big hand in the victory, as did Paul Dilger, one of the younger members of the club, and others who have been carrying the Red and Black for a comparatively short time. It was in the last five tests that Washington won the regatta. After Charles Vollmer and Art Smith had captu the junior tandem double blades, team of Knight, Fore, Shepard and Dilger came through to triumph in the senior quadruple single blades. Shortly afterward Knight and Dilger swept to victory in the senior tandem double blades to tie the point ‘Washington the team trophy. Despite adverse wind and tide during much of the pastiming several of the races were negotiated in fast time and many were marked by fine competition. Miller’s Win Spectacular. Perhaps the most spectacular incident was the driving finish put on by Ernie Miller, blond Potomac Boat Club paddler, to win the senior one-man single blades. Miller staged a desperate spurt in the last few yards to triumph by & narrow margin. He collapsed. just after streaking across the finish line. ‘Work of three brothers, Harold, Wil- liam and Kenneth Bruns, was largely responsible for Yonkers' strong show- ing. Eddie Bruns, another brother, also made the trip but did not figure in the point scoring. Summaries: JUNIOR QUADRUPLE DOUBLE BLADES— b (Jim Ward.

EW YORK, July 13.—The Cubs made it three out of five from the Giants by defeating the home forces, 4 to 0, here today behind the fine Dlwmn{‘ of Harold Carlson, the Chicago right- hander, who gave the McGraw clan four scattered singles and entered the winning column the moment Riggs Stephenson reached Dutch Henry for a home run in the second. The Bruins continued their attack against Henry in the seventh, when three singles resulted in one more run, and closed out their scoring in the eighth after Fred Fitzsimmons had entered the box.

AMERICANS SCORE BY 81210912 Engle, Kieselhorst Double Winners in Meet With Oxford-Cambridge. By the Associated Press. AMBRIDGE, Mass.,, July 13.— Three members of the Har- vard-Yale track team amazed even themselves here today and as a result the American col- legians overwhelmed the Oxford-Cam- bridge team eight and a half events to three and a half in the ninth renewal of the international meet which dates b‘% ’ln 30 years. score was the largest margin of victory in the records of the track and fleld clashes between the athletes of Old and New England. Today's meet was the “rubber” of the series and the Americans now have credit for five victories to England's four. The Harvard-Yale team started the action as favorites, but the score would have been closer if Dave Cobb, Harvard miler, had not run the fastest race of | his career and if Charlie Engle and Sid :Ktesflhonn had failed to realize their | hopes of being double winners. Sturdy Not Up to Form. | Fred Sturdy, the great Yale pole 1\‘nu]lfl'. failed to clear 13 feet 7 inches for the first time this season. He won | his event at 13 feet 31; inches and then fattempted to break Sabin Carr's world jrecord of 14 feet. He knocked the crossbar off three times when it was hoisted three and a half inches. Sturdy's winning vault, however, bet- tered the international meet mark of 13 feet which Carr established here in 1925. Kieselhorst was the other record- maker, as his 2425 seconds for the 220~ yard low burdles wiped out the 24 7-10 record made by Lord Burghley of Cam- bridge, two years/ago at Stanford Bridge. The Britons won the high hurdles, broad jump, half mile, and tied for first in the high jump. They also took second places in the high hurdles, mile, 220, two miles, low hurdles and quarter mile events. In the guarter, which Engle used to obtain his second victory of the day, he nosed out Frank Tchitcherine of Cam- bridge, by a scant two feet. Roger Leigh-Wood, president of the Oxford team and the favorite, trailed the light- blue runner by seven yards. Keiselhorst, captain-elect of the next | Yale track team, became a two-time winner when he flew through the 220- | yard hurdies yards ahead of R. M. N, Tisdall of Cambridge.

GRIFFMEN MOVE ON FOR CHICAGO SERIES CLEVELAND, July 13.—Walter John- son led his Nationals from Cleveland to- night en route to Chicago. where a four-game series with the White Sox is to be opened Sunday. Garland Eraxton is slated to open fire against Blackburne's bunch. The Na- tionals may look at Al Thomas' slants in the first tilt. A mew set of umpires handled the final of the Indian set. among them Red Ormsby. It was Red's first appear= ance on Dunn Pield since he was beaned by a Cleveland pop-bottle thrower in the May rioting. And Red worked at third base, where he was stationed when he suffered the beaning. Jamieson skidded on his right ear to k2ep a safety from Ruel in the second round. The Indian left gardener tore up with his speed, lunged at Muddy's fast-falling looper, did a double roll and came up with the sphere firmly held. A heavy shower fell just before game time, but the big tarpaulin kept the in« field dry. It would have been much better for the Nationals had Mr. Brade ley’s fine cover had several punctures.
