S MUST TAKE SERIES T0 GAI TOPBERTH Fighting New York Outfit to Open Play in Double Bill Tomorrow. BY JOHN B. KELLER. FTER repeatedly refusing to be helped by the occasional | A tomorrow will be strictly on their own in efforts to narrow the gap; between themselves and the| league leaders. For about the ’steenth time this season Clark Griffith’s hirelings will have a grand opportunity to close in on the front-running out- | fit as they encounter McCarthy’s | larruping legion in a Memorial day double-header here. A double win in tomorrow’s twin sketch due to get under way at 1:30 | o'clock wouldn't get the Nationals a tie so far as percentage peints are con- | cerned, but it would make them even with the Yankees on a games-won-and- lost basis and afford them a chahce to assume the league leadership by win- ning Wednesday in the series finale. While the Nationals still will have 14 games with the New Yorkers after this week’s three-game set, it might be | & good thing for them to get the edge on their great rivals in the impending | series. Heartened by their remarkable | winning rally Saturday, the Yanks car- | ried on_yesterday to mop up with the | White Sox in a bargain bill and unless | they get a really severe setback here | theyre likely to maintain & dazzling | pace for some time. | On the other hand, success in the series should serve to inspire the Na- | tionals to greater effort, changing them | from the unsteady aggregation they | have been to a brilliant, battling band tb.h?lr make-up indicates they ought to e. cCARTHY will have his Yankees here in full force. He will send st the Nationals the same line-up have defeated in four of five | games. But these Yanks may have a trifle more punch this time than before, | 49, and they were no weaklings at bat in | the April encounters. At last the great | Babe Ruth seems to be swinging into | true hitting stride and in that the big | fellow is bad news to any pitcher he | faces. H The Bambino cracked his seventh, eighth and ninth home runs of the | season yesterday and these long hits | provided the. Yanks' victory margins | in the two tussles with the White Sox. | Ruth wasn't meeting the ball very | well when the Yankees played here be- | fore and wasn't 5o good when the Na- | tionals invaded New York, but he'll bear watching—and a lot of it—this time. | The Yankees have just finished their | home stand against the Western clubs | with a record of eight victories against | three defeats. They reeled off (ku’:e‘ suceessive wins ‘to conclude the stand. | With the ~Nationals, Athletics and White Sox pressing them, they stoutly | defended their laurels. | It'll be a desperately fighting band | of Yankees the Nationals will face this time. HILE feeling between Yankees and | Nationals still runs high, there is | little likelihcod of another flare- | up between the players of the clubs | such as that.in Griffith Stadium on | April 25. when Buddy Myer and Earl | Whitehill of the Nationals and Ben | Chapman, Vernon Gomez and Dixie | ‘Walker of the Yanks were involved in & rumpus that narrowly missed becom- ing a free-for-all.

BY HUGH S, FULLERTON, JR., Associated Press Sports Writer. UST about every time the fans start saying that Babe Ruth is “through” at last, base ball's great slugger and great showman steps out and shows them there’s life in the old hoss yet. The Babe Ias been a wide open target this season with his extra load of weight and years and with the old spring and speed visibly missing. And when the Yankees came back from their Western tour with Ruth’s home run total just where it was when they left, at 5, the rumors came thick and fast. Ruth made his reply yesterday, when more than 50,000 fans were out at the Yankee Stadium to see for themselves. He clouted three homers, hit a single that led to another important run and personally led the Yanks to a double victory over the Chicago White Sox | that assured them of holding the Ameri- | lcantungue lead for a while longer at | least. 5 ETumre”mzwzuanmv. Ruth’s contribution was to sock a homer in the first inning of the opener, single in the sixth and score the winning run, and then to paste the of~ ferings of Milten Gaston and Red Faber. for circuit blows eight and nine in the second clash. The total of nine tied him with Lou Gehrig for the American League lead. The double defeat dropped the Pale Hose down into fifth place, a half game behind the Philadelphia Athletics and Cleveland Indians, - who gained a virtual tie for third, even though the A's lost to Washington and the Indians broke even with the Boston Red -Sox. ‘The second-place Senators pasted Rube Walberg f0r six hits and four runs. in the eighth to beat Philadelphia, 7-4, Cleveland climbed out of the second division by pounding out an 11-2 vic- tory s{lter Bob Weiland's six-hit pitch- ing hat enabled the tafl-enders to beat Oral Hildebrand 5-2 in the first gnme. After five hitless innings the St. Browns landed on Elon Hogsett for four runs and defeated Detroit, 5-3. 'HE St, Louis Cardinals clambered into second place in the National League by sweeping a double- header with the Phillies, 8-7 and 5-3. They came from behind with a late attack on Flint Rhem in the opener, in which they were aided by five Philly errors, then made their winning margin in_the first inning of the second clash.

No doubt Mr. Meyer will greet Mr. | Ben Chapman with ‘a handful of vio- | lets when the later comes smiling, at |a dog trot, to second base, throwing kisses at the doughty little Mississippi player, And there is nothing which will strain relations between two players more quickly than both of them fail- ing to get an edge on the other as they appeal to the customers. I have a hunch that when Benny does get to second base to find Mr. Myer there with daisies, he will throw his violets in the dust and exclaim: “What're you trying to do make a sissy out of me in front of the wolves in your stands?” Whereupon Mr. Myer will, no doubt, toss his daisies under the bag and hiss: “Whatzamatter, did they frisk you the rest of the afternoon. But do not let the violets and daisies cause you to lose a clear view of the situation. Uncle's Grand N: tionals and Joe McCarthy's bangers are about as friendly as Mr. Pecora and Mr. Morgan.
