F courage can get a pennant, count the Nationals in the there is no more playing to be |Bliese done—if then. Right now they are backing that courage with mechanical ability and smartness and look just about the best ball | i club in the business. There never was a better fighting #pirit revealed than that flashed by the | Hadley ‘Washington ball club yesterday in scor- ing its 11-to-10 victory over the Browns to extend a season record winning streak to 11 games. That seven-run lead the Browns got in the third in- ning was nothing to daunt the Na- tionals. They plugged along picking up Tuns here and thers, then splurged 30{10usly in the ninth'to Bag the con- The Nationals have plenty of fight. A courageous lot, they are, the kind of which pennant winners are made. T was a great wallop by Dave Harris that gave Washington its triumph. Going into the ninth the Nationals had the score against them 10 to 7. F? All seemed hopelessly lost. But there still was a kick, a kick reminiscent of | Jids that of '24 that helped the Nationals toward their first championship. And ]b'lur'.i.s climaxed that kick with his big low. Myer patiently waited until he, 8 pass from George Blacholder, ‘hen Manush dribbled the ball toward short for a single. 1en feld for a one-baser, crowding the . Harris socked a pitch against 2he wall of the sun parlor back of left center for a triple. Three runs crossed and the game was deadlocked. Levey, the Browns' shortstop, the return from Schulte, center fielder, and trying to get Harrls, who was slid- ing head first into third base, chucked wildly, the ball landing in the St. Louis’ club dugout. Harris got to his feet and :ll‘z;ed home with the big run of the ay. ARL FISCHER attempted to left- | hand his way to his eighth victory of the year, but the Browns sent him scampering in the third inning | when they put on their splurge. Bump | Hadley came on to get some rough! treatment before he steadied. Hadley gave way to a pl.nch-bntter in the eighth, so Bob Burke a chance to pimh the ninth and mcndlt—h the Ofl thh lot the Browns got 11 safe- ties, but the Nationals got 15 off Wal- lace Hebert, sensationai young left- hander who licked the A’s recently, and Blaeholder. The youthful southpaw was given a good lacing and would not have stuck around until the seventh inning as he did had not the Browns given him a good start. ISCEZR was found for a brace of tallies in the first inning. After Schulte fanned, Melillo got a lucky triple, his drive to center that should have beea nothing more .than a single taking an odd bound by West just as the flelder was about to grab it. Goslin was thrown out, Mellillio crossed. A pass to Kress and Ferrell's triple produced the other run. The Nationals countered with two in the second. West tripled and Bluege singled. Kuhel forced out Bluege and in turn was forced out by Spencer, but Fischer rifled a double down the left- field line to score Roy. ‘Then the Browns apparently tucked away the ball game. They put over seven runs in the third inning, a fuzzy decision by Umpire Guthrie and an error by Cronin helping them greatly. Schulte doubled as @ starter, Melillo strolled and Goslin singled to chalk up a marker. With Kress trying to sacri- fice, Melillo headed for taird, but the bunt was foul and Spencer after mak- ing a spectacular one-hand catch, heaved to Cronin standing in front of second. The ball got there ahead of Melillo racing back toward the sack, but Guthrie couldn't see it so and the double-play was lost. Here Ferrell's single scored Melillo end brought Hadley to thé relief of Fischer. McNeely’s double tallied Goslin and following Burns’ base-filling walk, Crenin fumbled Levey's grounder to Ist Ferrell reach the plate. Hebert cblig- ingly fanned, but Schulte, up for the second time in the round, walloped a triple to give the Browns three more runs. Then the Nationals gct to work again. Singles by Hadley, Myer and Harris with Manush's infleld erasure meant two tallies in the fifth. Two more came in the sixth from Bluege's one-baser, Kuhel's three-bagger and Hadley's infield retirement. Each side got & run in the seventh. Burns got a life when his grounder was kicked by Kuhel, stole second, moved to third after Harris bagged Levey's loft and crossed when Hebert singled in the Browns’ half. Harris' triple and ‘West’s double after two were out ac- counted for the Washington run and knocked Hebert off the slab. After that, all quiet until the lid was blown off in the ninth.

OUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., June 17.— Shortly after Tex Rickard pur- chased a large and speedy cruiser from Waller Chrysler and became an enthusiastic yachting fan, he ‘decided that -he. would races. There were perhaps a dozen of us on board, and we all were set for an extra good time, because we knew that Rickard never had seen any crews race |and we wanted to get his reaciion to | the spectacle. It was raining, just as it was today. and most of us stayed below, waiting for the noise which would tell us that the eights were coming. Tex, cn the con- trary, didn't wish to miss anything. With that enthusiasm which aided in making him a great promoter, he kept As | pacing the deck, and finally shouted to us that he guessed something was com- ing. ‘The captain had anchored at a point nbove the finish where there was a view but the crews were so dis- unt thlt the shells looked like toy boats, with little figures swinging matches or toothpicks for oars.

As we started back for New Ycrk we happened to pass near a press boat and Rickard verified the finish. Then we told him our system. But the thing which pleased Rickard most that day was to discover that his boat was about the fastest on the river going home. Next to his family and Madison Square Garden, that cruiser was the pride of Rickard's life. ARSMEN'S _weather,” yes; still more Navy weather. What can you expect with water un- derneath and water overhead? That is cert2inly weather for a sailor, rather than a landsman. And Navy yesterday took advantage of it. Old Dick Glendon has been rather cverlooked. Rowing fans have spent their time talking of Young Dick Glen- don, of Jim Wray, and of a lot of others. Old Dick’s pupils were not among the favorites. They were listed with the field; with the “also roweds.” But, when the time came they had the speed and skill; the stamina and heart. Old Dick Glendcn isn't so old as they thought he was. Washington had a disappointing jcurney. That crew came about 3,000 miles and then kept in front for three miles more, but that last mile was just one too many. Stil, those carsmen from the Pacific Coast made a gallant showing. Cornell was the only real one of the favorites t> row its race. It did its stuff, but found one opponent just a little too good. But Jim Wray's crew had nothing of which to be ashamed. It caught Washington, which undoubt- edly. was the eight it figured it had to beat, but couldn’t catch Navy, which it must have figured was rowing over its head and would drop back. Well, the experts were right concern- ing ome thing—they said it would be a good race. 'SANSTOL BOXES GIROUX Bantams Meet Tonight for Title Recognition by Montreal.

EW YORK, June 17.—Do beaten champlons come back? Some times, but not often. Three ‘welterweight kings, Rube Ferns, Jack Britton and Jack Thompson re- gained their crowns. Stanley Ketchel | took back the middleweight title after losing it to Billy Papke. Pete Herman regained the bantamweight laurels from Joe Lynch. Frank'e Genaro is regarded as fly- weight champion in most o( the world today. He lost the honors to Fidel la Barba in 1925. Mike McTigue was crowned light heavywelght king a sec- ond time by edict of the New York Commission when Jack Delaney retired. There may be other cases. Those are the ones that come to mind. So far, though, no lightweight chlrn- plon ever has won his way back, thou several have tried. That makes task of Al Singer seem almost 1mpos- sible. Singer, dethroned by Tony Can- zoneri last November, hits the come- back trail when he fights Lew Massey in the Garden tomorrow night. You can write your own ticket that he dg:;{l't find his way back to the throne Singer had a very brief reign. He was a few months short of 23 years of age when he bowled over Sammy Man- dell last July 17. He was just past 23 when he lost the championship to Can- zoneri on November 14. Jack McAuliffe was the youngest gladiator to take possession of the light- weight title. He was only 19 when he was acclaimed champion. Willie Ritchie w-:m’ilhk& ;nésl Benny uaJlurd and Singer were the youn; when they lost the title, each being '2“3‘ Below is a list of lightweight chnm- pions, with first the age at which each won the title and next the age at which he lost 1t: Jack McAuliffe, 19 and 27; PFrank Erne, 24 and 27; Joe Gans, 27 and 33, Battling Nelmn. 26 and 27; Jimmy Goodrich, 24 and 25; Kansas, 30 and 31; Sammy Mandeli, 22 and 26; Al Singer, 22 and 23; Tony Canzoneri, 25 and—you'll have to guess how old he will be when he is pushed off the perch.

HE relative destructive abilities | of a cranium-crushing headlock | and a rocking split will be tested ¢ tomorrow night when « Dick | Daviscourt and Rudy Dusek clash in ! the feature bout of the wrestling show at the Griffith Stadium. ‘That Daviscourt’s headlock can pro- duce perfect headaches is a matter of record. Among the husky Californian’s victims have been Ed “Strangler” Lewis, a master of the headlock himself; Stanley Zbyszko® and Joe Stecher, all | former champions. Dusek can point to a record almost equally as good as Daviscourt's. He was undefeated here until Jim Londos visited. He is a member of the East’s “Big Six.” His rocking split, properly is said by wrestlers themselves 10 be the most painful grip in the game. Daviscourt already holds one decision over Dusek, who lost only three (to Londos, Steele and Daviscourt) all year. Daviscourt’s win came in Baltimore fol- lowing a sock in the breadbasket with the knee. It will be “winner-take-all” when Tiger Nelson and Mike Romano tangle in one of the prel'minaries.

FULLERTON, JR., Associated Press Sports Writer. N the round of intersectional games which is coming to a close in the big leagues, the clubs of the two home sectors have far outshone the visitors. With a few games left for today hefore the scenes of activity shift, the Eastern clubs of the American League have turned in 36 victories against 15 for the Western invad- ers. In the National League the visiting teams from the East have won 23 games since the series started, June 1, while the West has recorded 32 triumphs. Washington, which tackles the St. Louis Browns in a final clash today, has far outshone all rivals, winning 14 games out of 15, and the last 11 o!t.hem in_succession. The Athletics, who have a final crack at Detroit wd;yy, held their lead over tered a .500 mark for the series, but the New York Ylnkeu failed to uphold the prestige of the East, winning 5 g:mes and losing 6 and finishing just low Cleveland, Western leader, !or the series.
