BY JOHN B. KELLER. ASTING few hits, the Nationals yesterday grabbed a pair of games from the Yankees. The scores were 6 to 4 and 6 to 3. ‘With their double victory, Johhson’s charges increased to three full games their fifth-place lead over Bucky Harris’ Bengals. Having only five more tionals should not find it difficult head of the second division. games on their schedule the Na- to maintain their position at the It was a home run driven to the deep angle back of right-center by Buddy Myer in the fifth inning that proved the decisive blow in the first encounter. Two were on the runway when Myer ccnnected. It was the last blow struct in’a rally that netted the Nationals five markers and blotted out New York’s two-run advantage. The second game had its homer, too. Joe Judge in the third inning slashed one to almost the same place Myer had made his drive. This matched the run the Yanks had put across shortly before and thereafter the Nationals steadily forged ahead. Sam Jones and PFred Marberry did the flinging for the home side and did it well, too. Jones was nicked for 10 safeties in the initial fray, but outside of the third and fourth frames, when the Yanks clustered six of their hits, he was quite effective. Marberry, in registering his eighteenth victory of the year, allowed only seven hits spread | over four innings. { Beat Sherid and Rhodes. ‘The Nationals bumped Roy Sherid and Dusty Rhodes, right-handers both, for the wins. They slammed Sherid for only five hits in the first tilt, but they got them all in the fifth frame, ‘when they forced him to give way to the left-handed Fred Heimach. The southpaw yielded three safeties. Rhodes pitched the first seven rounds of the second scrap and gave up 10 hits. Bots Nekola, left-hander, was nicked for a lone safety in the eighth. Myer headed the Washington at- tack, accounting for three runs with his homer in the first fray and driving over | two more markers in addition to scor- ing one with his two singles and a double in the second. Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig were the big noises of the Yankee offensive. Ruth got three hits in the opening battle and drove over half his club’s runs, With his lone hit in the second set-to, Gehrig sent two mates to the plate. There was much flashy fielding by | both sides. Myer and Cronin of the | home side, though, were the defensive | stars. In the first game, Cronin had | 13 chances at shortstop and never | elipped. He made nine assists and four put-outs. In the opening round of the second game, Myer made the flashiest play of the bill when he ran | far into center field for an over-shoulder catch with one hand of Gehrig's looper. Yanks Start Scoring. 1In the first encounter the Yanks wast- ed Ruth’s single in the opening inning and Koenig's two-bagger in the second, but they put over a run in the third. ‘They had to get four hits in a row to do so, however. With one out Combs singled, and pulled up at the far turn when Lary rifled_a double down the right-field line. Ruth singled Combs home, but Lary, who tried to follow Earl across the plate, was flagged. Gehrig singled Ruth to third, but overran first and was nipped. The Nationals matched this run in their third turn without a hit, two passes and an erroy turning the trick. Cronin walked and checked in at second ‘when Lary made a fine stop and threw out Hayes. Jones also drew a pass. Durocher grabbed Judge'’s bounder and had an easy play at second for Jones, but Leo chucked the ball wildly and Cronin got home. The tie was broken immediately by the Yanks. Jones weakened after Dickey forced out Koenig for the second retire- ment in the fourth frame, and with Durocher’s single and a pass to Sherid the visitors crowded the sacks. Combs then whacked a one-baser that sent Dickey and Durocher over the final se. This New York advantage was swept aside by the Nationals in the fifth, when they hopped on Sherid for five hits and as many runs and drove him | from the slab.

The bunt was a pop that Marberry charged and appeared to catch, just above the ground. Then Fred wheeled and threw to Judge, getting Durocher off first for what would have been a double-play had Nallin not ruled that the pitcher had grabbed the sphere on the bounce instead of on the fly. As Marberry got to the ball, Tate was right after him. That may have blocked Nallin’s view to such an ex- tent he could not see the play. The decision left two Yanks on with none |out and Combs’ single tallled Durocher. Then Marberry speared Lary's low liner and doubled Rhodes off second with a heave to Cronin. Had Joe not stumbled across the sack as he took Fred’s throw, his heave to Judge might have caught bs off first for a triple play. Ruth drew a pass, but Gehrig ended the session with a foul to Myer. | Judge's homer in the Nationals' third offset this Yankee marker and the fourth Johnson's charges picked up two more runs. Myer singled as a starter and West made a sacrificial tap. Lary flelded the bunt well, but chucked the ball far over the first sack and Myer scored while West reached third on the error. Tate’s single sent West home. The fourth Washington run crossed in the fifth inning. It was made with Rice's two-bagger, Goslin's infield erasure and Myer’s single. The Nationals scored again in the sixth. With one out Tate got a single with & hot drive that handcuffed Du- rocher. Then Cronin s2nt the catcher to the counting block with a double that hugged the left-field line. Rice and Myer collaborated in the making of a seventh-inning marker. Sam singled ana counted when Buddy doubled. Checked for four frames by Marberry, the Yanks rallied in the eighth to get two runs.

OSTON, Septembar 28.—The Ath- letics, by defeating the Red Sox by 6 to 3 at Braves fleld this afternoon, equaled their own mark of 102 victories in a sea- son, made back in 1910. To beat that mark, the Mackmen need only one victory in their five remaining games. They have no chance, however, to | equal the league mark of the Yankees of 110 games won in a year. Bing Miller was the top hitter today. His triple to right in the sixth, with the bases loaded, drove in three runs. George Haas made three singles, but did not chase in a run. The hitting leaders of the new champions, Al Simmons and Jim Foxx, failed to break into the hit column. Bill Shores and then Ed Rommell | worked in the box for the A’'s, Dan MacFayden held the champions to one hit until the sixth. Carroll and then Durham pitched for the Red Sox. All the A's runs were made off MacFayden, whose support was ragged in ways which do not skow up in the box score. ‘Three of the runs, however, were made by men who had walked.

The change was co-incidental with the en- trance into the fray of Johnny Scalzi who relieved Leary at quarterback. Scalzi Shakes Em Up. Scalzi immediately got things started with a well executed 15-yard pass tc Hudak that sent the Hilltoppers on the way to their first touchdown, the march starting from the enemy’s 40- yard line. Johnny helped a lot with a 9-yard gain and ripped off the final 4 yards. In the second quarter Scalzi passed 19 yards to Maczees, who skipped and stiff-armed 20 yards more for a touch- down. Toward the end of the period the chunky quarterback teamed with little Joe Gardner, smallest player on the squad, to get six more points. Gardner took a long pass that put the ball on the 20-yard line and two plays later was off on a 15-yard dash. Then he plunged for the touchdown. Disappointment over the failure of Johnny Bozek, elusive halfback to re- turn to the foot ball squad was mon than tempered by the performance o his younger brother, Emile, in scoring the last touchdown, in the third quar ter.
