C, THURSDAY, JUNE 30, 1 | Fighting Spirit Gone as Griffs Slump : JUNE DISASTROLS MONTHFOR TEAM Needs Clean Sweep of Three ¥ Games With A’s to Ciimb. Trusts New Talent. BY JOHN B. KELLER. EW YORK, June 20—Lar-| ruped in both perts of the two-game series played here with the Yankees, the Nationals will entrain tonight for Philadelphia with little chance to overhaul the A's in the week end set of three tilts. Nearer fifth position than third in the league standings now, the *Washington Club would have to win the tussle tomorrow and the twin sketch | Saturday with Mack’s minions to advance a notch. Manager Johnson will turn to his new pitching talent for most of the slab work in Shibe Park, he said today. Lioyd Brown, who took a beating here | yesterday slthough hurling but one in- ning, is to start the Philadelphia series, but the pair of pitchers picked up by the Nationals during their western | swing will go into action Saturday. Al [ Thomas, who probably would have | scored & win here had the Nationals not been all but helpless at bat, looks good enough to trim the A’s, according to Johnson, and the Washington pilot also is confident Dick Cofiman can go well against the 1931 league champions despite his failure to make any headway | in his three appearances on the hill as | a starter since his transfer from the | Browns. Howg\‘m good their starting pitch- | ers may prove, the Nationals are | not apt to get worthwhile results | unless they muster an attack much | more substantial than that which has | marked their game recently. Too often | for their own good Johnson's charges have been held to few hits in contests | and in their rare batting splurges the | hitting has not produced much scoring. A streak of solid slamming might work | wonders with the Nationals. | June hasn’t been a happy month for | the Nationals. Of 26 games played, 14 have gone against them. Playing .342 | base ball for more than four weeks, the club has dropped from second to fourth place. Certainly anything but a month | of roses for Johnson's charges. The | Nationals started the month bravely | enough by taking three games from the Red Sox. Theén they dropped a double- | header to the same club and after that took a lot of punishment from all foes | except the Red Sox and the Indians. | Their pitching corps crumpled, their attack lost vigor and the snap and | | | smartness that had marked their early season play all but disappeared. GOOD ball club for some time, & | club regarded as a strong pennant | possibility, the Washington outfit | quickly lost caste with the many that | had belleved it a powerful and inwlh-i gent aggregation. The Nationals have | lost more than ground in the flag race | curing June. Somewhere nlongthe | stretch, through this month they have | lost thai flery, fighting spirit that | characterized their efforts and made them so successful when the campaign was young. During June, the Nationals have revealed little of that fine spirit | to win that had them up and at ‘em in April and May. For the Nationals June has been drab and dreary. July may prove a bright month of rehabilitation and success. The makings of a good | ball club still remain. | Beating the Yankees on their own ¢ this year is nothing easy to do. In games played in Col. Jake Ruppert’s big base ball plant it has been done only | four times in the current campaign. And the Nationals turned the trick twice in one afternoon. But the Na- tionals also have taken six beatings in Yankee Stadium, and five of the beatings came in their last five games on the league leader's lot. | HEY put up & good scrap yesterday | before taking a 6-5 licking. Twice | they rallied to create a tie, and the | second time they routed Vernon Gomez, the Yankees' left-hand hurler, who is the pace setter of the American League pitchers. However, neither Al Crowder, first of Johnson's slabmen to work, nor Lloyd Brown, last of the Washington hiil men to toll, could keep the Yankees from the pl That was done only by Fred Marberry, and Marberry pitched to just one batter. The Yanks, though, showed in George Pipgras a pitcher able to quell a rally. He toox Gomez's place on the hill in the eighth inning after two runs had crossed and the Nationals still occupied third and first bases with only one out. Pipgras stop- ped them cold.

THE WORST IS NET TO COME... | | | | M PAGE D—1 Carey Is Rewarded by Faith in Thurston REVIVED SLABMAN WINS S STRAGHT {Had Indifferent Success as Dodger Relief—Tigers Strengthen Hold. BY GAYLE TALBOT, Associated Press Sports Writer. AX CAREY, manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, did his best bit of master mind- ing of the season when he decided a month ago to give Hollis Thurston a break. Up to then, Thurston had been doing relief pitching now and then with indifferent success. On May 28, Carey sent the 32- year-old right-hander against the Giants. Thurston went the route and won, 6 to 4. Since then, Thurston has gone to the hill five times, and yesterday he marked up his sixth straight victory. His rare success since he was pro- moted to the varsity is one of the big reasons why the Dodgers are in a tie for fourth place in the National League today, only three games from the top. ESTERDAY'S 7-t0-0 win from the Phillies was Thurston'’s second straight shutout and ran his record of consecutive scoreless innings to 22 He was only the third pitcher to blank the Phils in their home park this sea- son, and he had to keep five hits well spaced to turn the trick. Hack Wilson’s fifteenth home run with two on featured the Brooklyn assault. Although they rallied to score four runs in the last of the ninth, the Cin- cinnati Reds dropped another one-run decision to St. Louis, 10 to 9. Charlie Gilbert hit into a double play with the tying run on base. Only two games were billed in the National League.

In substance, as the race nears the mark where, according to an old base ball axiom, the leaders stay there until the finish, Uncle has a courageous, dargerous base ball club that is a mar- vel on defense, yet not a penning-win- ning combination now or at any time ' during the season. | | HERE should be no individual on | the club to blame for the team's | faltering steps.
