UBS one day, marvels the D next. Lacking everything club as they were knocked for a loop Friday by the White | Sox, the Nationals yesterday | turned on the visitors from Chi- | cago and played like champions | to even the series with a 7-to-0 victory. Recording their first shut out of the campaign, they regained full | possession of the second berth! previously shared with the In- dians, and, on a won-and-lost basis, cut to one game the gap between them and the league- leading Yankees, who took a trim- ming in New York. The Nationals not only packed a healthy punch as they ironed cut the White Sox in the week end engagement, | but they also got a lot of hign-grade pitching from a hurler who had done | nothing to boast of in three weeks. ! Monte Weaver opened fire for the first time since May 7, when he started against the Tigers in Detroit, and his! victory was the first since April 29, when he beat the Yankees on their own lot. In scoring his third triumph of the | season, Weaver went the route as he did | in the cther winning efforts and gave | his best pitching performance to date. | He limited the White Sox to five safe- ties, spread over as many innings. His control, usually uncertain, this time was | eplendid, for he issued but two passes. O effective was Weaver that only once were the White Sox able to get as many as two runners on the paths at one time. Not a visiting athlete got beyond second base during the battling, and that sack was occupied but twice | by an alien runner. Jimmy Dykes | reached the midway station by cracking two-baggers, the only White Sox to get | two hits off the professor. In sharp contrast to the White Sox | weak offensive was the Nationals’ bom- bardment of the three pitchers Manager Lew Fonseca sent to the peak. Off the | trio, the Griffith hirelings got 14 hits. | Two were triples and as many doubles. Three times the Nationals bunched | blows to reach the plate. Ted Lyons, who got_credit for beat- | ing the Nationals in Chicago not long 2go, though he was not able to finish what he started, tried to take anofher | ze fall but of them. This time he took the beating. He got away with four innings, took a sound thumping in the fifth and | a sounder one in the sixth before giving weay to Joe Heving. FF Lyons, the Nationals gleaned | nine of their hits and six of their | runs. They got just one hit off | Heving, but he gave away to a pinch | battér in the eighth. His successor was | Vic Frasier and in Frasier’s one round | he was reached for four safeties and a | score. Old man Sam Rice, subbing in center | field for the injured Fred Schulte, and | Heinie Manush accounted for half the | ‘Washington hit total. Rice, playing a full game for the first time this season, rolled out the first time he batted, but in his next four turns reeled off two singles, a two-bagger and a three-bag- | ger in order. Manush went hitless in | his first and third turns, but in his others tripled once and singled twice. | Cecil Travis, the youngster from Chattanooga, whose batting was the sensation of the recent series with the | Indians, was the only National to 80| hitless, but he converted into a run| one of the three passes that came his club’s way. SoomNG stirted in the fifth inning | after one was out. Weaver got cn | when Kress fumbled. Then Rice | singled ard after Manush went out| Goslin walked to load the sacks. Cro- | nin cracked a long single to center to get two of his teammates home i In the sixth the Nationals dented | the plate four times. Travis walked | and the fleet Myer beat out a bunt| neatly placed just a few feet in front | of the scoring block. After Sewell skied | out, Weaver cot a hit with a- roller 10 Kress, because the first racker waited too long to make his throw to the | pitcher covering the base. Rice got two | off the crowded bases and Lyons out | of the game by doubling. Then Ma- | nush whacked Heving for a single to| gend over two more Sewell opend the eighth by doubling | off Frasier, but was snared when Weav- K er put wn a bunt. The bunter, overrunning first base, was tagged for a | double-play. But Rice crashed a trivle | to left conter and rode home on Ma- | nush's single. THnEE of the hits off Weaver were made after two were out and his pass at the outset of the fourth frame was offset by a double-play. error by Crenin put Swanson on at the start of the sixth, but he stuck at first to be forced ou: fc* the rornd’s end. Simmons, who sirgied 2t the beginning of the ninth, was immediately forced out end the Nationals' second double- play ended the game. Only in the fifth did the White Sox make a scoring threat. Dykes began the inning with a_two-bagger and Kress walked. But Grube popped out when he attempted to racrifice and Lyons and Hayes flied out. Weater was that good.

Twice during the game Johnson's wild_pitches enabled Detroit to score. Another freak performance was turned in by Johnny Hodapp, who drove in four runs, although he got only one hit. He pushed over the first taily in the third inning when he drew a pass from Tom Bridges with the bases filled. He paved the way for another Boston score with his infield out in the fifth and sent two more of his mates over the plate in the sixth when he singled with the bases chocked. Detroit.

PRINCETON'S EIGHT . | | WINS CHILDS' CUP Penn Second as Tigers Tie| Its Regatta Mark With Tenth Victory. By the Associated Press HILADELPHIA, May 20.—Prince- ton's mighty varsity eight, row- ing perfectly, rallied in a mile- long drive today to sweep to a cne-length victory over the Pennsyl- vanta crew in the twenty-efghth annual Childs Cup regatta. | " Battling a headwind the éntire dis- tance, the Nassau crew crossed the fln-‘ |ish line in 7 minutes 1725 seconds.| | Columbia’s shell, pulling up to & quar- | ter length behind Pennsylvania in a stretch sprint, finished third, less than six seconds behind the victor. Trailing by a quarter length at the quarter-mile post the Princeton rowers hit up a 35 beat to pull even with Penn's strongly manned shell shortly | after they swept under the trolley bridge a mile from the finish. At the half mile the Orange and Black oar tips flashed out in front, anc from then | were never headed. | JT was Princeton’s tenth Childs Cup victory, equaling the 10 wins regis- tered by Pennsylvania eights. Princeton’s Jayvee eight won an 8- | foot victory over Pennsylvania’s junior varsity. Only after Penn’s third oar, Harry Strong, apparently caught a crab about 100 fcet from the finish did Princeton forge ahead to win in 7 min- utes 29 seconds, with Columbia a poor third. The lightweight frosh event was | Penn’s in 7 minutes 15.2 seconds, fast- est time of the day. Columbia won a one-length victory | over Pennsylvania in the varsity 150- | pcund contest.

HILADELPHIA, May 20.—The Phila- i delphia - Athletics, aided by two home runs by Jimmy Foxx, swept 4 | the two-game series with the Cleveland }lndhns by capturing today’s contest, 7 to 2. They were Foxx's fifth and sixth J circuit drives of the season. Both Jimmy’s clouts sailed over the right-field wall, an unusual thing for him.. The first began a three-run as- | £ault in the second inning, and was fol- |Jowed by a similar drive by Cochrane, the latter’s third of the season. | | After that Higgins made his first of | three singles. “Sugar” Cain also singled, | and on Williams' out Higgins scored a T Lluen and Gehrig: 8hea, Melmn and Burn«; | third tally. | These were hardly enough, however, | a5 “Sugar” melted in the sudden heat, |and a crowd of 7.500 cheered when Lefty Grove relieved him in the sixth. | ‘ All Mose did was to pitch no-hit, shut- | cut ball, thus giving Cain his fourth | \Icwry of the season. | But 3 2, as Grove found the score, | t safe enough for the A’s, so after Lefty hit & surprise double to start the seventh they began afresh.

Even Hap Hardell, who still is crying about next season’s foot ball chances at Tech, admitted that| while Tech’s runners would not have a chance in the events, the meet was | the finest he has ever seen. BOILING sun pelted down on the kid athletes all afternoon. And when they won their events they earned them. Competition in these “C" Club affairs is getting stiffer. Yes- terday's ranked with any event of its kind in the country. Not only was the talent exceptional in grade, but in | numbers, scme 330 kid athletes com- | peting. Twenty-eight schools were represent- ed, and each institute packed its best talent. Mercersburg, manned by Jim- my Curran, the veteran track and field. tutor, had a splendid group of athletes. But Jimmy, who coached the great Ted Meredith, said it was not the best the school has had in recent years. ‘Gene Casey, treasurer of the Club, was nominated by the club offi- | cials’ as the young man who put in| the nerdest licks for the success of the meet.

R T L a game m::'ffm 2:1 be recruited BY JOHN B. KELLER. HEN the Nationals take the wind-up of their three-game series with the White Sox sixth successive pitching victory. ‘The “General,” who now has a season has reeled off five triumphs in a row, | and in scoring his last two he went all ive as he set back the White Sox in Chicago in a 10-Inning tussle a week | fleld this afternoon for the Al Crowder will be out there after his record of six wins against two defeats, the way. He was particularly impress- | ago yesterday. He looked even better | as he beat the Indians here Wednesday in a battle of regulation length. This White Sox club was Crowder’s | white meat last season. He beat it eight times and it never got the better of | him. The Chicago crew is a bit stronger | now, but the old “General” looks pretty | strong himself at present, and he seems to have a lot of good pitching tucked away in his right arm, too. Manager Lew Fonseca made no over- | night slab selection for his pale-hosed ck, but it was hinted that Ed Dur- am, & right-hander transferred from the Red Sox to Chicago, might be the | man in the middle for the visitors at | the outset of this afternoon’s pastiming | t in Griffith Stadium. 'RED SCHULTE E broke a finger on his | left hand when he fell as he wen! after Earl Webb's drive in the fifth inning Friday an X-ray made yesterdny | revealed, and will be out of action least a week. But the Nationals hlve Sam Rice and Dave Harris to fall back | on for-the center-field work, Rice to be | in when the opposition employs right- hand pitching and Harrls when it uses lefties. Rice adequately filled the shoes of the club's leading hitter yesterday in making a triple, a double and two sin- gles. And this Harris person has been larruping the leather in great style. Ossie Bluege yesterday tested the leg he hurt in a Chicago game recently and found it wasn't ready for full service. The injured limb doesn't interfere with his batting in practice, but the veteran third baseman can’t run on it. Trainer Mike Martin opines that several more days of rest will be, necessary to get the pulled muscle properly set. MONG the 4,500 paid—those 3,000 school children in the open stand | were guests of the Washington club—at the week end pastiming was ‘Will Rogers, comedian, of Claremore, Okla., and Berkeley, Calif.

BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. ISREGARDING supersti- tion, Coach Hugh Ewing, former V. P. I athlete, entered 13 athletes of John Marshall High of Richmond in the fifteenth annual “C” Club track meet yesterday in Central Stadium and saw them score 29!; points to win the meet and first legs on ‘the coveted Emory Wilson Mem- orial and Cornell Cups. It was the first time the boys from the Old Dominion capital have tri- umphed in the meet. Mercersburg Academy, long famed for its illustrious athletes, and competing in the affair for the first time, finishea second with 24 points, nosing out by a lone point Woodberry Forest. Episcopal High with 1913 was fourth. Eastern was seventh with 55 points to lead the Dis- trict schools. Central and Devitt each counted 5 and Tech registered just 2. 'OREST PARK HIGH of Baltimore for the eighth time in nine years took team honors in the junior di- vision and won the Jim Sprigman trophy. Eliot Junior High's squad of this city, coached by Bruce Kessler, for- mer American Universily athlete, was second with 10 points. Episcopal with 8 was third and Langley with 5 was fourth. It was a well balanced team that swept John Marshall to victory. Its representatives won only 3 events of the 16, 2 of these relay tests, but there were few events, especially on ihe track in which the boys from the banks | of the James did not place second or - | thire Ed Turner, who captured the ard dash was the lone John Mar- shall individual victor but its combina- man narrowly escaped being bowled over by the onrushing middle field | guardian. for a play that got Hayes in the third.

The Nationals’ catcher pur- | poscly let the fly in front of the plate trickle through his hands, then re- trieved the ball quickly and heaved to Mye!‘ covering first. It was up to Buddy to tag Kress, who had clung to the | base, then step on the seck for a double {play. But Myer made the mistake of | having his foot on the base as he got the ball so only Grube would have been ‘out even had Umpire Vangraflan not ruled that Sewell had completed the catch of the pop. ton dugout in the sixth.

'YONS squawked loud and long when Umpire Owens ruled Weaver had | ( reached first ahead of Kress' throw | |to the Chicago pitcher covering the | base.

John Marshall was content to .let | such outstanding boys as Harry Harmon | of Woodburry Forest, who won three events, breaking records in two, and LJann Tufts of Episcopal, who flashed in a winner in both the hurdle events, | bask in the spotlight. ‘ARMON took the broad-and hign jumps with reeprd performances. Only two other records were hung up and one of these was for the new relay event. Harman leaped 21 feet 9 inches in the broad jump, against the mark of 21 feet 52 inches, made by Grover Everett of Eastern in 1931, and took the high jump with a leap of 6 I(tec 133 inches, allfllfly better than an mch better than the 6-foot 4-inch jump of Calvin Milans of Central i 1928. The Woodberry boy won the “dlzcus with a heave of 132 feet 111, inches, which is short of the record by something like 7 feet. Bill Guckeyson, 180-pound all-around | athlete of Bethesda-Chevy Chase High, surprised by winning the shotput, with a lunge of 50 feet 3 inches, that ex- ceeded the former mark made by Bob Train of Episcopal last year by 2 inches. Guckeyson placed second to Harmon us. HERE was plenty of drama about | the meet. Jack White of Mercer:- | burg, put on.a stirring finish to win the lOO-yll'd dash, Coleman Headley of Hargrave Military Academy, former | Hyattsville High athlete, had to strug- gle stoutly to beat Hildebrand to th® finish by a scant margin to triumph 1in the mile, and Hoxton of Episcopal made up a world of ground, but was vanquished in a heart-breaking finish by Mills of Mercersburg on the anchor | leg of the “C” Club mile relay. This ! (v:nn gave Mercersburg the Eugene Casey up. Frank Kocsis, only letter winner on | the Central squad, and who was acci- | dentally shot some time ago, scored all his team'’s points, finishing second in the javelin and third in the broad jump and shotput. « The George Hamilton Memorial Cup was awarded Mercersburz for finishing second in the senior division.
