BY JOHN B. KELLER. AVING spanked their East- ern rivals soundly, the Na- tionals are ready to do battle with the Western ) members of the American League. | ; The Browns, the first lot of the far sector scheduled to visit Wash- | ington this year, will invade Grif- | fith Stadium Friday to start a| three-game series. Following the | 8t. Louis outfit, the Tigers, White| Sox and Indians will visit in the| order mentioned—the Tigers and | White Sox for four-game series and the Indians for one of three. | Zech Beating the Western bunch as they| have waded through the ranks of the Easterners may prove a difficult task for the Nationals. The West seems to have a deal of class this season. The White Sox and the Indians have been winning right steadily and are at the heels of the league-ieading Washington club. The Browns have no mean record and though the Tigers have been taking it on their chins they have power. Once they pull themselves together, they'll be not so nice to face. As long as the Nationals get the pitching they have been getting, how- ever, they have lm%ev “é fear in strug- ling with East or West. go reason to believe now that the hurl-| staff will falter. One or two of the | %hen may have their slumps at the | & same time, but the staff is too well bal- anced to be severely affected by any Br such occurrence. Five in Row Hitting. Whether the Nationals will continue for long their surprising hitting is prob- lematical. Now that Joe Judge is step- | ping into the ball in good fashion, the | club has five batters in succession in the | ‘hitting list making afternoons miserable | for opposing moundsmen. That is a lot of power. A slum) in batting by one of the five, though, would materially affect the Nationals’ attack. The John- son band, though, has been especially fortunate in making most of its hits| count and perha in offense it still weuld be able up a flock of runs. | In tackling the Western clubs, how- | ever, the Nationals very likely will run into much better pitching than their Eastern rivals have shown them. Cleve- land and St. Louis have fine hurling corps and the White Sox possess some clever moundsmen. Thus far, the T.gers have flashed llittle on the hill, but sev- eral of their pitchers have been good enough in the past to make them dan- gmul again once they round into good Anyway you look at it, beating thz ‘West ought to be a tougher task than taking the Eastern rivals over the jumps these days. But tough tasks do not seem to bother the Nationals these days, at that. They look and act as though they are ready to give battle to any- thing that steps on a ball field. OW that Washington's farm, the Chattanooga club of the Southern Association has purchased Out- fielder Bratcher from the Braves, young Jake Powell, former Silver Spring sand- lotter, will be returned to the Nationals It was thought Powell would be greatly benefited by service with the Dixte | team, but he could not get going well there. For a time he hit nicely, but recently he fell into a slump. After Jake vas held hitless in several games, President Joe Engel dug up Bratcher to replace Powell. Maybe the Southern Association is too fast for Powell, which | ‘would not be surprising, for he had no professional experience up to this year, and hitting in a Class A circuit is vnulymdmerem from hitting on the Jake is not to stick around the Na- tionals long, though, according to Presi- dent Clark Griffith. ‘Washington prexy now is casting about for a berth with some low-class minor team for Powell, and expects to complete a: nn'xemem.s for his ttransfer in a day or two. LITTLE matter of a seven-run handicap did not annoy the Na- tionals yesterday when they faced the Yankees. After spotting the New ‘Yorkers the seven in the first three in- nings, the Johnson band stepped out in their third batting turn to tie the score, then went on to an 11-to-8 triumph. The Yanks {ct their early advantage off Irving Hadley and Ad Liska. Irving found the plate on swings, and when- ever he did get the ball over the Yanks socked it. Four passes and four hits were made off him before he was re- leved by Liska with two cut in the sec- ond inning. All four hits were doubles and three of the four passes Irving is- sued became runs. Liska walked three and was hit twice, one of the blows off him being a double and the other a triple. No wonder the Yanks got their seven runs so quickly. Uncle Tom Zachary was on the hill at the outset for the Yanks and he went through two fine innings. He was chased in the third, though, by a four-hit barrage and Roy Sherid came on to take more punishment. Not until ‘Vernon Gomez, a southpaw rookie, swung into action, were the Nationals checked in the third. It was Liska who started the big drive with a two-bagger ripped down the left fleld line. lflepl) singled, Rice doubled and Lazzeri's wild chuck put Goslin on, Myer singled and the Nationals had three runs across. Out went Zach and Sherid went to the hill. Bang! Bang! A double by Cronin and a single by Judge and the Nationals had three “more runs. { ‘This brought Gomez to Sherid's relief. | ‘He stopped the Nationals so far as hits 'were concerned, but his support kicked in with two errors and Judge crossed with the tying tally before the twelfth man to go to bat in the round became the final out. 'HE Yanks became trailers in the fourth frame when the Nationals, helped by another error, put over a run and Goslin's triple and Cronin's sacrifice fly gave them a ninth marker in the sixth session. * “Dusty” Rhodes | started pitching for the Yanks in the seventh, but after he was bumped for two runs with only one out he was by Lew McEvoy, who finished Liska was withdrawn during the big rally and Barrett sent to bat for him. 80 to Myles Thomas fell the lot of tching the remainder of the route. mel id well, holding the Yanks to four hits, which made their game total | 10 and 1 run.

Kfauss and Halley, Chapin and Baum in Spotlight at Convention Hall. BY R. D. THOMAS. WO famous doubles teams will shoot tonight in the Washington City Duckpin Association tour- nament at Convention Hall. Harry B. Halley and Harry Franklin Krauss will perform on drives No. 27 and 28, and Ray Chapin and Johnny Baum will hold forth on alleys 23 and 24, in the 10 o'clock squad. Halley, Krauss and Baum were in- cluded in the all-time all-star line-up of George L. Isemann, who based his selections laregly on averages made over a stretch of 10 years. Isemann held that Baum was the greatest anchor of 'em all. Chapin, at his peak, was quite as skilled as bowlers come. The spotlight may be stolen from the grand old veterans by another duo. Meyer Davis team stars, are scheduled on the same drives with Krauss and Halley. McGolrick, who averaged 120 in the National Capital League, a point behind the record-smashing Howard Campbell, is assured of a place among this season’s “Big Ten.” Moore was a high ranker in the National Capital, too. Both are excellent tournament bowlers. K. of C. and Federal Leaguers will predominate tonight. It Moore and McGolrick get a start like that of Frank Mischou and Tommy Nolan last night they likely will carry on to a fat slice of prize money. Frank and Tommy shot 270 in their first game that flopped completely, neither of their other two scores beat- ing 200. ‘According to Secretary Ebersole, their 270 was the highest first game recorded in the doubles in years. Howard Campbell feels at home to- day in first place in the class A singles. The King Pin captain linked games of 115, 134 and 136 for a set of 385. Charley Phillips. Masonic Leaguer, who holds the all-time record here for a three-game set—458—shot 362 in the singles and now leads the class A all- events with 1,069, which isn't likely to figure in the money. The Lansburgh & Bro. team rolled an even 1,600 to head class D, with Anderson’s 346 featuring. Louie Pantos gathered 390 sticks, John Fulmer contributed 375 when the Olympians of the King Pin Business Men's League, dropped in a set of 1,741 | to top class B. Catherine Quigley and Rena Levy. doubles partn ‘were the high scorers when the ation team rolled 1542 to move into second place in class A of the women's championships at the Arcadia. Catherine shot 328 and Rena two_sticks less. Madeline Burke of the Shamrock: rolled 325 to assume second place in the class B singles and has 922 for second in the all-events. The Dixie Pig Girls of Hyattsville totaled 1,377 to lead class C. REDS LET RICONDA GO.

(Dolly) | Stark, because he couldn't stand the nervous strain. In turning in his resignation to President John A. Heydler, Stark said he had come to the conclusion that the “nervous strain of umpir- ing was too much for him” and that he had decided that he should not try to make umpiring his life work. Stark, who coaches basket ball at Dartmouth in the Winter, played considerable professional base ball in his younger days.

BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR., Assoclated Press Sports Writer. HE idea of having one big inning to win a base ball game seems to be coming more and more into favor in the major leagues, either by accident or intent. The sluggers of the big leagues, now finding their batting eyes rapidly after a rather slow start, are becoming a group of opportunists, pounding out enough runs to gain the vic- tory at the moment the opposing pitcher weakens. The seven big league yesterday gave just one tions of this fact out of the many that have turned up lately. Three of these seven were decided directly by the one big inning, while the same factor had an important bearing on the result of the Brooklyn-New York Giants slugging match, in which most of the innings were big ones. The Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals had no chance to_hit, due to wet grounds. The Robins and the Giants carried the idea to its limit as Brooklyn won for the second time in a row by a score of 19 to 15. Brooklyn scored 11 runs off four Giant pitchers in the second frame, only to have the Manhattan war- ;mrs come back with a 9-run third rame. Phillies Work Scheme. Philadelphia’s National League club likewise won an entire game in one in- ning with the Boston Braves as their victims. After seven scoreless stanzas of a duel between Ray Benge of the Phillies and Bob Smith of Boston, Philadelphia suddenly started hitting in the eigh'h to score all its runs in an 8-to-2 triumph. The Pittsburgh Pirates gave the Chicage Cubs s:ven runs in the first three innings and got them al! back in one to beat the National League | champions, 13 to 9. The Pirates picked up a few runs first, but it was the seven counters .in the sixth that gave them their ninth victory in 11 gam:s and put them at the top of the National League standing. The Washington Senators produced the only big inning in the four Ameri- can League games to win their eighth | in a row and make their winning streak the longest either major league has seen this year.' They also gave away seven runs in three innings, then tied the score in the third as they pounded Tom | Zachary and Roy Sherid from the mound and went on to defeat the New York Yankees, 11 to 8. Five Yankee | errors coriffibuted to New York’s down= fall, three of them contributing to the Senators’ rally. A’s Again Triumph. The champion Philadelphia Athletics | were content to get their runs in pairs, but, led by Al Simmons and Mickey Cochrane, they got four twosomes and ;tsn';gle to beat the Boston Red Sox, 0 5. Old Red Faber of the Chicago White Sox brought forth one of the day's two good pitching feats as Chicago downed the Detroit Tigers, 8 to 6. Faber went the full nine innings and, , although he gave 14 hits, he fanned 7 and had the backing of two home runs by Carl Reynolds and Bill Cissell. Cleveland's 6-to-4 victory over the St. Louis Browns had the 1,101st con- secutive appearance of Joe Sewell as its feature, although he had nothing to do with the triumph. Joe was in no shape to play, as he has been mnmni a high temperature for two days, bul he has missed but one game since he joined the Indians, 10 years ago, and wanted to preserve his record. Johnny Hodapp's home run in the third, the first one hit by a Cleveland player this season, was the leading factor in overthrow of the Browns.
