Griffs Show Fight in Overtime Tilts : Players Planning “Protective Association” TRIUMPH N 7 0F 8 PLAVED T YEAR Add Browns to Victims in 12-Inning Tilt—Thomas Gets Hill Win. BY JOHN B. KELLER. Nationals are hard to beat. In the tussling at Griffith Stadium yesterday the Browns were made to realize this when they took a 5-to-4 trimming in a tilt that went into the twelfth inning. Four others of the Na- tionals’ seven rivals also have been overthrown in overtime battles in this campaign. In all, the Nationals have layed eight extra-inning games his year and lost but one. In contests extending beyond the Tegulation nine rounds the Johnson band has trounced the White Sox three times, the Red Sox, the Yankees, the Athletics and the pesky pack from the West shore of the Mississippi. Only the Athletics have bowled over the National in an extended engage- me y did so in Philadelphia early this month in the eleventh inning, | vas the battling that Mack’s only 2 to 1. te Sox went longer than lub to take a beating from aticnals. They were downed in ing struggle here in May. Be- sides_that with the Browns yesterday. the Nationals won another ~12-round encounter. It was with the A's in Philadelphia the last day of May. Out West in June the White Sox were drubbed in 11 innings. Three 10- inning tilts are among the Nationals’ wins. They were scored over the White Sox, the Red Sox and the Yankees, Hard to beat these Nationals are when they get beyond the ninth, HERE was pler R ARRY them past the ninth ‘ inring this season and the of action in the id game yesterday before the Johnson band scored its second win over the Browns in its nine meetings with them this scason. Generally there was pitching. but there was sparkling ng by both sides at critical mo- its and hitting enough to satisfy, although the hiis were well spread. The triumph left the Nationals just @ shade below the fourth-place Tigers. who took a trimming from the A's. Al- though even cn a game basis, the Na- tionals have lost two more as well as won two more than the Detroit club, and with a winning percentage above 500. a loss means more points than a nd by their victcrv the Nationals lung to the hecls of the Indians snd Mack's outfit.

The Commerce-Repair game was hard fought until the ninth, when the former scored five runs. Hargett, with three hits, including a homer, a double and single, led the winners' offense. Wells, with four singles, also was a big help. Noone, with three bingles, was most consistent for Repair. Tuck Dalglish, fast center fielder of | Union Printers, suffered a broken jaw when a bounding ball struck him as he was essaying a stolen base.

LEVELAND'S INDIANS yester- day went right on with their campaign against the East's “Big Three,” clubbing Yankees into submission, 11 to 3. in the opener at the Yankee Stadium. That made it five straight for the Tribe and 11 out of its last 14 games. Babe Ruth’s twenty-sixth heme run supplied | the only cheering note for the Yanks. Jimmie Foxx banged No. 35 with two on base to help the Athletics defeat Detroit, 9 to 2. His blow was the high spot of a 7-run uprising in the seventh inning. HE Boston Red Sox were stopped short of their goal, a three-game winning streak, when the White Sox nosed them out, 9 to 8, in 11 in- nings. Jack Hayes accepted 18 chances without an error at second base for the Wkite Sox. Bill Swift pointed out another good reason for Pittsburgh's leadership of the National League when he set the Boston Braves down. 6 to 1. The rookie gave up only four hits and allowed only one runner to reach third in registering his sixth straight win. The Chicago Cubs remained two games back by beating the Brooklyns, to 1, behind Guy Bush. Riggs Stephenson played the starring role, knocking across the wining run with a | | double in the eighth and cutting off at least two Dodger runs with a sparkling catch in the seventh. | HE Cardinals’ run of four straight wins ended when the Giants piled into Dizzy Dean in two innings to win, 6 to 3. Jim Mooney held St. Louis | to one run until the ninth inning, when | errors cost him two more Chick Hafey returned to the Cincin- nati line-up, but his presence failed to impress the Phils, who slugged Carroll and Ogden for an 11-to-6 victory.

AYBE it's a case of too many mosquito bites or a brainstorm resulting from trying to count the number of timeg Gino Garibaldi was thrown out of the Grif- fith Stadium ring, but it appears possi- ble Washington's educated wrestling fans shortly may be in the throes of a mat series that may rival if not excel, financially and otherwise, the Rudy Dusek-Jim Lordos episodes cf a year the Capital today has a new wrestling favorite in Gino Gari- | baldi, rated quite the best man to find |favor here since Roughhouse Rudy Dusek nearly was nominated for Presi- dent a year ago by the town's “fickle faithful.” The rubbery Mr. Garibaldi, who last night so nealy flattened Fred Grobmier | brought forth a series of body slams to polish off Riverdale'’s new resident. HE cast of racters was well chosen and the boys responded manfully in all bouts to produce an evening of entertainment which rose gradually in tempo and paved the way for that peculiar air and enthusiasm which, if memory serves aright, seems identical with that which gripped the local mat populace about this time a year ago when Dusek was in Gari- baldi's shoes. Dusek played a prominent part in last night's show by finishing Lou Plum- mer. greatly improved. after 37 minutes in the semi-final. Other results fol- low: Jim McMillan threw Floyd Mar- shall in 17 minutes: Vic Christy threw Jack Zarnas in 11 minutes, and Frank Brunowicz and Pat O'Shocker went to a 30-minute draw.

Grobmier's scissors and constant practice of toss- ing Garibaldi out of the ring just wouldn't disccurage Gino, who, though it probably means less than nothing, was far more impressive in victory over the Iowa needle than Jim Londos in either of his two recent wins. Garibaldi shifted his tactics from last week's in pinning Grobmier. He out- roughed Rudy and outguessed Freddy, concentrating on the latter's frail-look- ing legs and using Grobmier’s hook- scissors as the means of converting a few minutes of pain to the break that ended the match.

AIM T0 STAVE OFF CHOPS N SALARIES 'Ring Leaders, Hiding Iden- tity, May Enlist Perform- ers in All Leagues. BY JOE VILA. EW YORK, July 15.—Fear- ing the alleged iniquities of the chain-store system and reductions in salaries next year, ball players, under contract to both major and minor league clubs, are discussing the advisability of forming a “protec- tive association” that will embrace all members of the profession. Ringleaders of this movement are studying the constitution and by-laws of the Ball Players' Fraternity, which | went out of business 17 years ago | after making the magnates grant cer- tain concessions. Organizing an association or union, the ringleaders say, has become impera- tive. Under present conditions ball | players are at the mercy of the mag- nates, it is argued, and have no re- dress. The movement has been started in both big leagues and in leading minors, including the International. Pacific Coast, Texas, Eastern, Western |and New England Leagues, together | with the American Association. If the | organizers of the proposed union meet | with encouragement, which they are confident they will get. the magnates | next Winter will be subject to dictation as to new contracts. the sale of players and the operation of the various chain- store systems. Cunningham'’s Case Cited. Many cases of alleged oppression have convinced the ringleaders that the time is ripe for a Nation-wide crusade. The latest instance of chain-store manipula- tion invclves Lee Cunningham, who has been rescued from “bondage” by Com- | missioner Landis. It appears that Cunningham played with Houston in 1929 and Danville in 1930 and 1931. both owned by the St Leuis Cardinals. He was tried at third base by the Cards early this season, but, failing to make the grade, was returned to Houston. Commissioner Landis, declaring that the option rule had been violated, or- dered the Cards to take Cunningham back. sell him or release him outright So the voung player was sold to the Tyler, Texas League, club Thursday, with no strings attached Identity of the plavers who are try- ing to form the union will be kept secret for the present.
