Griffs Rally to Beat Red Sox Twice : Alliss Ties Hagen for Canadian Open Title SCRAP INTO NINTH FOR 87 NIGHTCAP West’s Double Tells—First Game Won Easily, 7 to 1. Gain on A’s, Yanks. BY JOHN B. KELLER. LASHING the fine fighting spirit that marked their play here in June, but which : I they later lost for a time, the Nationals in Griffith Stadium yesterday handed the Red Sox a double-wallop. They followed a rather easy 7-to-1 win with an 8- to-7 triumph, coming apparently after they were hopelessly beaten from a rousing ninth-inning rally. With their two-way success the am- bitious Nationals picked up ground on their greatest rivals in this chase for the Am-rican League flag. One-and-a- half games, and a half-game was gained on the lcading Athletics, who now are in front by just four and a half games, and a hali gam> was gained on the third-place Yankces now trailing by five and a_half games. All the thrills of the bargain bill were pack:d in the second set-to. With Jack Ruscell, who had beaten them three times this season, hurling against them the Nationals found it difficult to get going while Carl Fischer, al- though a great strikeout artist in the first two rounds, couldn't kesp the Red Sox off the runway. The visitors finally drove Fischer to cover and also slammed Bob Burke to such an extent the Nationals went into their seventh bat- ting turn on the wrong end of 5-to-2 count. Two Tallies Tell in Second. Then the Johnson band rose in its might to rout Russell and got to his successor, Horace Lisenbee. just enough 1o take the lead. Off Al Crowder in the eighth, howover, the Red Sox again went ahead before Fred Marberry was rushed in to end the inning. Then after Irving Hadley stopped Shano Col- lins' men in the ninth the Nationals stopped out to wrest the gaTe from Lisenbee and Ed Kline before a batter was retired. The Nationals outbatted the Red Sox, 14 safeties to 11, and did the longer hittis too. After being held to seven hits by Russell in the first six rounds they got threc off him in the seventh, collected thres more off Lisenbee and one—ths big double by Sam West in the ninth that meant victory—off Kline. Leity Brown and Danny MacFayden were mound opponents at the outset of the first game. Brown, though spotty in his work went the route, yielding nine ties and three passes. Mac- Fayden ck innings in which he was reached for s safetics and five tallies. Five more hits and two morc runs came off Kline. T i-a-half innings the sec- 2 bill was all Red Warstler and S rive to they got 2 run in the third in- and another in the fourth from Pickering's single, walks by Connolly and Warstler and Rothrock's fly.

Farrell Is Third. | By the Associated Press. ISSISSAUGA COUNTRY CLUB, TORONTO, Ontario, July 11.— Clipping four strokes from par on the last nine holes, Percy | Altiss, British pro at the exclusive | Wannsee Club in Berlin, posted a 71 in the fourth round of the Canadian open golf champlonship today to tie the old master, Walter Hagen, at 282 and force a play-off for the title. ‘The play-off, at 36 holes, will be held ‘Tuesday. Hagen, whose pair of 68’s had given him the lead after 36 holes and who | still was in front after 54, faltered on his final round when he needed 74 for a grand total of 282 Alliss, 3 strokes behind the leader at the start of the final 18-hole round, ap- | parently shot himself out of the cham- | pionship picture on the first nine, when he used up 39 strokes. At this stage | of the game he trailed the leading Hagen by 6 strokes. But the Briton pulled himeelf together at the turn and negotiated the final nine holes in 32 for the 71 that beat par by 1 stroke and, more to the point. put him in a | tie for the championship. Farrell Is Third. With Alliss and Hagen in, Johnny Farrell, smiling Irishman from Mama- roneck, N. Y., still was out on the fair- way and in a position to overhaul both of the leaders. Johnny had taken 37 | for his first nine of the final round and a 35 on the incoming nine would give | him a tie with Alliss and Hagen and 34 would beat them both. But the birdies wouldn't click for Farrell when he needed them most and he wound up with 36—73 and 283, good for third place. Mortie Dutra of Los gained fourth place with 284, y the best golf of the day, clipping 2 strokes off par with a 70 in the third Tound and winding up with a spectacu- lar 68 in the final 18 holes. Two strokas back of Dutra in fifth place was the defending champion, Tommy Ar- mour of Detroit, Britich open cham- pion. A pair of 73's today boosted Armour’s total to 286. Dudley Shoots a 68. Ed Dudley of Concordville, Pa., smashed through his final round in 68 strokes for a 72-hole total of 288 and sixth place. The best Canadian score Was turned in by Jules Huot of Quebec, 291 while the 292's included Tony Maner Cyril Walker, Aubrey Boomer and Al guste Boyer. Back of these were Horton Smith and Wiffy Cox with 294, Willie Klein, 297, and George McLean. 307. Among the British Ryder Cup players, Syd Easter- brook had 293 and Archiz Compston 302, the latter ruining his chances to get up among the leaders with a final | round 80.

Harry Rice opened the home ninth with a walk and Manush got a single with a bunt that bounded over the heads of the pitcher and first sacker to Miller. Cronin’s bunt became a base-filling sin- gle when Lisenbce, after getting the ball, was too dazed to attempt a piay.

Manush’s long fly tallied Myer and sent Rice to third, while doubles by Cronin and Bluege followed to account for two more markers.

Section 4 of rule 70, the first of base ball's official rules of scoring, is responsible. Here's what it says: “If, in the last half of the final inning, with the winning run on base, the batsman drives home that run, credit shall be given him for as many bases as, in the judgment of the official scorer, he would have made under normal conditions; that number, however, not to exceed the number of bases advanced by the runner, except when the batsman drives a fair ball out of the playing field he shall receive credit for a home run, provided he legally touches each base in proper order.” ‘West didn't drive the ball out of the park, so he couldn’t be credited with a homer. But what he did was enough. LADY ASTOR GOLF LOSER.

AVERILL SLUGS TRIBE T0 11-INNING VICTORY Twice Hits for Circuit With Man on Base as White Sox Are Downed, 7 to 4. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, July 11.—Earl Averill hit his fifteenth and sixteenth home runs of the season today, the second com- ing in the eleventh inning, to bring the Cleveland Indians a 7-to-4 vic- tory over the White Sox in the third game of the series. Porter was on base each time Averill hit for the circuit. ‘Willis Hudlin went the route for the Indians and had trouble only in ti fifth and seventh. He was never in danger during the extra innings, while Faber, who replaced Thomas in the eighth, was continually pitching out of trouble. With two out in the elev- enth, Porter got his fourth bit, a single to left. Then Averill hit his home run into the upper deck in right field. A hit by Morgan, a_walk by Vosmik and Kamm’s single added one more run. Cleve. ABH O A _Chicago. ABH.O A Burn't.b-ss 6 1 4 6 Bluedb. . 4 1 X Simons.ct.
