BY JOHN B. KELLER. IX and one-half games be- hind the Athletics prior to today’s pastiming, the Na- tionals have little more than a mathematical chance of over- hauling the league leaders, but they seem as safely entrenched in | ¢ second place as do the A’s in first. Following that 5-to-1 victory yes- terday that meant a sweep of a three-game series, the Nationals are juSt six and one-half games up on the Yankees, who not so long ago threatened to wrest the | runner-ug position from the Johnson forces. The Nationals have 25 games, includ- ing the two scheduled here this after- noon with the Red Sox, remaining on their schedule. The Yankees have 26, two with the Athletics in New York today. Should the Nationsls win but 12 of their 25 remaining engagements | they could be beaten out for second place only if the Yankees managed to | I win 20 of their remaining 26 games. Lately the Nationals have been mov- | ing at a fast clip and are quite likely to win more than a dozen games in the | last four weeks of campaigning. And | the Yankees are not likely to take 20 & games in the next four weeks. Bob Shawkey has not that kind of a ball elub, 1 seems. S season the Yankees &lvel been I he easiest pickin's in the league o the “Nallonals. The Johnson | band has engaged the New Yorkers 18 times and 15 times have been victorious. Of the 11 games they played in Grifith Stadium the Yanks won but 1. In New | Figf York the Nationals have defeated the Shawkey forces 5 times in 7 starts. And later this week they’ll have a chance to better that record for they will open & 4-game series in ‘Yankee Stadium Wednesday afternoon. Had the other clubs been as easy as the Yankees, the Nationals now would be champlons of the American League. NLY a wild chuck by Jack Hayes in the eighth inning prevented the Nationals shutting out the Yanks in the Sunday pastiming. Lyn Lary had tripled with two out, but it Jooked as though the hit would be wasted when Harry Rice's grounder was up the Washington second baseman. ever, Hayes' heave toward first was ‘wide and short and while the ball 502 Judge could not grasj ly. Ha Rice was safe :?‘fl Lu?y‘s crossing of the base counted. bad Irving Hadley could not have had the shut-out for he pitched a fine game of ball. He allowed but five hits and issued only two walks. Lary got three of the hits and his triple was the only extra-base :;‘ow.mflul-:yumu and Gehr! t the other hits. !‘IHII mly‘{h.oflflt inning did the Yanks have as many as two runners on at a time. Then after Harry Rice forced out Lary, who had singled, Gehrig got a base hit that moved Harry to’third. Tony Lazzeri's best, though, was a roller to Hayes. Lary’s second single came in the third with two out and: Harry Rice forced out Lyn. Harry singl out in the sixth only to watch Sam ‘West scoet back for Gehrig's high one. Lazzeri got the first of 's passes at the outset of the seventh, but never left first base. Hadley struck out two of the three batters following Tony to the plate in uglh round. He ltr‘:kcekdo:; six during game. Cooke pi Herb Pennock’s bat at the beginning of the eighth and walked, but Earl Combs drilled into a double play. A fine game Hadley turned in. Too bad he did not get the shut-out. IGTON scoring was done off the pitching of the left-handed Pennock and Roy Sherid, right- hanller. Pennock pitched seven rounds in which he ylelded eight hits and three runs, s0 he became the loser before Sherid went to the hill. It was the fourth beating handed Pennock by the Nationals this season. Sherid was nicked for a pass, two hits and two tallies. All runs off Pennock were *earned. Buccessive singles by Judge, West and Spencer accounted for a_ fourth-frame marker, Singles by Manush and Cronin, 's infield erasure and ‘West's second single were good for two runs in the sixth, But one of the two runs off Sherid was earned, for it was a ‘bobble by Chapman that put Manush on at the beginning of the inning. Fol- 1 Cronin’s sacrifice Judge walked and West and Spencer singled. 'WRIST sprain sustained late in Sat- urday's game kept Myer away from second base . . .

C., which, until a few seasons ago consistently produced strong foot ball teams, will return to the gridiron wars the coming campaign. More than 50 players, including Charley Walsh and Steve Barabas, former Georgetown University dependables; Perry and Randolph, erstwhile George ‘Washington players; Budnik, from ‘Washington and Lee, and Corn from Georgia Tech, have been lined up for the team, it has been announced. Walsh, guard on the Hoya eleven the past two seasons, will be head coach, and may also play. Barabas, erstwhile Georgetown fullback, will be assistant mentor, and also will hold down a berth, Rip Collins will manage and play. John Kemp will be the trainer and Frank Kersey business manager.

Epithet has been out only twice, but | each time he performed like a real champion, displaying worlds of speed— | a factor that will cause a lot of trouble before the winner of the Futurity, the 13| richest race run on American turf, is posted. Practically the same field that bat- tled over the six and one-half furlongs at Saratoga will run down the Widener straightaway in the Futurity, which last year was worth $105000 to the winner. The Futurity, however, will be one-half a furlong longer, which may or may not be of an advantage to Epithet as he will pick up added weight because of his Hopeful victory. Joseph E. Widener's Novelist, which finished only a nose back of Jamestown in the Hopeful, will also be a strong factor in the Belmont stake, as he again will have a decided advantage in weights. If Tom Healey, trainer for Harry Payne Whitney, gets Equipose back into good condition, picking the winner will be more difficult than ever. Although defeated by Jamestown, Equipoise has piled up an enviable record and has plenty of speed to make the best of ‘'em step. FILIPINO CLU.B NETTERS PLAY IN FINAL ROUNDS Final round play in both singles and doubles was scheduled this afternoon in the Filipino Club tennis tournament, on the Monument courts. Competition was to start at 3 o'clock. - In the singles P. N. Rulloda, who yesterday in the semi-finals, triumphed over the defending champion, Manuel Zamora, in an upset in straight sets, 7—5, 6—2, was to meet C. Carballo, who | yesterday easily scored over F. Piniera, | 6—4, in the semi-finals. | Silva and Domingo were to face | Zamora and Baradi in a doubles semi- final, with the victors engaging Rolloda and Pimentel in the title match.

Cubs Lose Ground to Giants As A’s Hold Leading Margin BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, Jr,, Associated Press Sports Writer. LEAD of five games ,or more on Labor day morning seems like all a base ball team should need to win a pennant. Yet there are more than mathematical possibilities that the Chicago Cubs and Philadel- phia may not meet again in the world series this year. ‘The Cubs have a five-game margin over their nearest rivals, the New York Giants, today, while the A's are 6! games in front of Washington. But neither place can be called secure since the margin in both cases depends more on the number of games won than on the losses. The Giants have been beaten only four more times than the Cubs, and they have 28 games left on their sched- ule to 26 for Chicago. Brooklyn and St. Louls, the other contenders in the close National League race, have each lost 58 games, seven more than Chi- cago, and have fewer left to play. {n the American League, the Ath- letics are eight games ahead in the vic- tory column, but only five in respect to defeats, while they have only 22 games left to Washington’s 25. The New York Yankees, 13 games behind and with 26 left are out of the race for all practical purposes. Cubs Drop Half Game. The Cubs saw a half game clipped neatly off their lead yesterady as they took an 8-to-3 beating from St. Louils in the final game of that important series. “Wild Bill” Hallahan struck his best form and held the National League champions to four hits, while he fanned a dozen of them. With a chance to make a big gain, New. York fell down in the second half of a double-header with the Boston Braves after rallying in the fourth in- ing for all their runs in a 4-to-3 victory in the first. Even Mel Ott's feat of hit- ting three home runs in succession did not enable the Giants to equal the Braves’ slugging, and Boston won the second clash by a 14-to-10 count. St. Louis, by its triumph over the Cubs, gained a full game on the leaders, while the Brooklyn Robins, holders of third place, made an equal gain by picking on the luckless Phillies for a 14-t0-3 victory. Old Adolfd Luque held the Phils to seven hits, while the Robins pounded out a total of 23. In the fourth National League clash ] Cincinnati broke its own losing streak | and Pittsburgh’s string of victories with | a 4-to-1 triumph,as Eppy Rixey out- pitched Ervin Brame. Shores’ Hurling Tells." The Athletics and Washington held their victorious pace in the American League race, although the champions had a close call against the Boston Red Sox. A three-hit hurling perform- ance by Bill Shores was just enough to | give Philadelphia a 2-to-1 victory, as | Danny MacFayden allowed only seven blows, Washington had a somewhat easler time shoving the Yankees deeper into the ruck as they bumped Herb Pennock around, while Irvin Hadley granted only five hits for a 5-to-1 triumph. ‘The youthful Tom Bridges of Detrolt pitcbed another fine game, giving Chi- | cago White Sox only four scattered blows. For six innings another rookie, | Jimmy Moore, did about as well against him, but Moore weakened in the seventh and a three-run .rally allowed the Tigers to win, 4 to 1. The Cleveland Indians reached the high mark for the day's slugging, when they assaulted the St. Louis pitching staff for 10 runs in the seventh inning and rode to victory over the Browns | by a 17-to-6 count, Standings in Major Leagues ‘American League.

ABOR day means the beginning of the end for sandlot base ball, but in the short space of time from today until the middle of September, there's much to do in the way of settling several titles. After that, as is going on mow, pig- skins will fly through the air while gloves and spikes will be hung up until next season. At the present time, sandlotters have a few battles to fight out which promise to keep fans on pins and needles! HE city week day series still is an open fight between Pullman, Tile Setters, D. C. Repair Shop and the Calvary Drakes. This is expected to be decided, or virtually so, by%he end of this week. Tomorrow, in fact, may go & long way as Pullman and the Tilemen, both sporting two vic- | tories and no defeats, meet in an all- | important game.

The Eagles, who also won, beating the Burroughs, 18 to 8, have a chance to clinch the title next Sunday when they meet Columbia Heights in a game which promises to go down in sand- leé history. 'ATCH the Prince Georges County race! Another Waterloo was met yesterday, this time by Mount. Rainier, which, for the first time, shares first place. The Dixie Pigs owe a great debt to Henry Hiser’s Hyattsville club. Mount Rainier was within reaching_distance of the flag yesterday, but Gump Bailey saw | that ‘the Dixie Pigs were to have a crack at the title, for he allowed the erstwhile leaders only three hits, while his mates swallowed Rainier pitching, winning, 14 to 1. So the fur will fly on the Sunday coming when the Pigs and Rainierites, tied for the leadership, meet in a single game for the title. OU can now make a place in the hearts of sandlot fans and players for Bert Olmstead and his Grillians, who, though losers to the O'Briens yes- terday, 5 to 4, in the championship game, showed they are true sportsmen. Nip and tuck, the two teams, each holding a win over the other, battled, the O'Briens winning out in the end. contest at the Washington Golf and Country Club. Ralph 8. Fowler and C. T. Lynes were tied for several weeks in the choice score com- petition, with cards of 52, which is 18 strokes below par for the course, and yesterday Fowler shaved a stroke off this mark to go into the lead in the competition, which ends in October. Fowler now has reduced his selected score to 51, and Lynes is one stroke behind him. In third place is R. J. Morman, vice chairman of the golf committee of the elub, who reduced his score yesterday from 56 to 55. Four more youngsters yesterday sent in their names for the junior cham- plonship tourney, which will be played tomorrow at the Washington club. In addition to the list of those already HEY are still pushing par down I toward oblivion in the ringer years of age have entered the 36-hole tourney for the MacKenzie trophy: Fritz Paxton and Paul Paxton of Wash- ington, William Asher of Columbia and Bonn Gilbert of Kenwood. The tourney will start at ® o'clock tomorrow morn- ing and will be run by Dr. William C. Barr, secretary of the District Golf As- soclation. Dr. Bruce L. Taylor, presi- dent of the assoclation, also will present. All ties involving first, second or third places must be played off on Wednesday under the rules of the Dis- trict golf organization. To the winner of the tourney will go a gold medal and he also will have his name engraved on the Albert R. MacKenzie trophy.

Johnny Wiles pitched stellar ball, giv- ing only three hits, while Lefty Lewis was right behind with five. However, with what some fans con- sidered technical grounds for a protest on & decision rendered by Umpire Jim- my Greene, the center of that storm between Naval Hospital and the Tile Setters last week, Bert Olmstead refused to make a protest when many Grill followers were of the opinion that one was forthcoming. It was a real battle, this senior class affair, and one that will be long remem- bered. DouT_ greriock the Acme-Lionel play-off in the junior class title, either, for sandlot fans have been flocking to_watch these little teams. The Acme Printers won yesterday, 9 to 1, when Bob Wallach pitched six-hit ball and socked a home run to put his club out in front, but the Lionels, un- daunted, promise to be in the thick of the fight next Sunday, when these clubs play the second game of the series. 'HE independent free-for-all is pretty much in the hands of the North- ern Red Birds now, for the Grier- men have knocked off every outstand- ing team hereabout at least once and claim a clear right to wear the 1930 crown. The Birds hold two decisions over the Red Sox, French A. C, St. Mary's Celtics and the Silver Spring Gian These, together with wins from the Ui ion Printers, Naval Hospital, Bauser- man Motor Co. and several other local nines, establish the Northerns as one of the greatest independent nines to show here. The Grier-managed club has lost only 4 games in 38 battles, and those four losses are credited to out-of-town teams. “We're after the foot ball champion- ship now,” declares Buck Grier, who plans to call his Northerns out in the neat' future, 'HE Washington Union Printers, pe- ennial victors in the annual Typo tournament, are returning home empty-handed this season. And there may be several new faces in the Typo line-up mext year, 'tis pre- dicted. Printer officials here declare that the Typos have not enough young talent working out. They claim that the veterans, who have been playing ball for a decade or more, cannot hope to compete as formerly; that the Printers will gradually become weaker as the seasons roll by. All because there are no_youngsters in reserve. So when the Typos take the fleld next year don't be surprised by a new name or two in the line-up.

Never Olosed Nat’l 3000 B—I1 ' BIGGEST PROBLEM FACED BY COMCHES Backfield Material Is Good, Although Radice Will Be Greatly Missed. BY H. C. BYRD, ARYLAND has out its foot | ball squad today to begin preparation for what prob- ably is comparatively the most difficult schedule to be played anywhere in the whole country. The Old Line squad as- sembled for the first time this morning at College Park, where it is to carry on its training. Unlike Georgetown, which leaves tomors. row morning for Point Lookout té begin workouts in the afternoon, the Marylanders take their pre~ season practice on their home field. Forty-five men, members of the varsity and freshman squads of last year, have been invited back, and it is likely that pretty near all of them will be on hand today. Members of the squad realize as well as the coaches the task that con- fronts them to_ get in shape to meet Yale at New Haven October 4 and North Carolina the_following Saturday at Chapél Hill. Incicentally, Mary=- land's squad strongly suepests thas Yale moved the Maryland gane up to October 4 5o as to have a bigger ad= vantage. In the last four years &t Yale Maryland has been whipped only once, and that does not seem to be af 5?55“'"” popular outcome around New en. Center Must Be Developed. The greatest difficulty that seems g confront the Old Liners right at this time is_the development of a_centet: Parker Faber and Owens were the sub~ stitutes for that position last year, the latter has left school. If the Ol Liners can find a center capable playing the kind of ball Madigan plays the last two years they should be al to build up a fairly good line, des) e e SackRe S wil be- n’ the backfie W exi difficult to find any man to pm kind of defensive foot ball that mn;a did. He was about as good in that partment of play as any man oy re; and to fill his shoes is going to anys thing but easy, if his shoes are filled % all. Leaving out the defensive ability of Radice, the back field seems to have more possibilities than the one of a year ago. However, from the 1930 varsity a total of only seven letter men back. The biggest losses are from line. Heagy and Dodson, ends; nitzski and Lombard, tackles; He and McDonald, guards, and Mi center, who graduated, and with the u;p:lor: of Dod.soll'll. \!iho was hurt of last season, all played three Madigan's loss will bey:’ell mohm any other, largely because there to be no man capable of flling place. i Some of the Leaders. Joining the varsity squad from thé 1929 freshmen are several men, the best of whom are Al Woods, John Mitchell and Ray Poppelman in the uckn;'lg ! :‘lyld dcmx‘-,nc ’I!-;!enln. tackle, and | Wood, end. e men who pis Frankie De Angelo and Eddie Buell in | v the semi-windup, Soldier Burke and W. | or less regularly on the varsity who are due today are Bill Evans, Charlie May, Louls Berger, George Chalmers and Buck Miller in the backfield and Al Pease, Bill Fisher, Jess Krajcovic, Ernie Carlis and Jock Norris in the line. The othes due to return are: From last year's squad—Pat Rooney, Jim Loughran, Morris Nicholson, Joe Deckman, Ralph Sterling, Henry Me- Donald, Courtney Hayden, Joe Sanford, Ray Koelle, George Norris, Henry Bu Harry Ferguson, Tom Duley, Parl Faber and Bob Wilson, linemen, and Joe Settino, Paul Cronin and Fred Stieber, backs. From last year's freshmen—Frank Hines, Dan Galotta, George Cole, Je« rome Feldman, Harold Norwood, John Scott and Joe Baker, linemen, and Paul Kietnan, George Hockensmith and Larry Plumley, backs. Maryland ought to have at least ms good a team as it had last year, not- withstanding it lost many men by graduation. It started in poor fashion in 1929 but came rapidly in the last half of the season. Much of what it may do depends on how the ecenter, guard and one end position turn out, as it seems that greater offensive strength in the backfield should recom- pense for the lack of defensive ability th:t“cen::red in R;dlce. er meets the last Saturday m“mm Maryland schedule gets tough and stays that way until the end.
