The Nationals go into the series with no chance of b2ing dislodged from sec- ond place, but making headway here in the four games while the Yankees are tussling with the tail-end Browns five times in St. Louis will be no easy matter.

For a really high class third baseman the American League might well have Ossie Bluege on the all-star club.

EW YORK, June 21.—As the base ball returns roll in from the West, it is a little diffi- cult for the fans here to determine whether there is anything to the rumor that dissension in the ranks is the cause of the Yankees' losing streak or whether Babe Ruth's stomach ache is the reason for it al’ The story is being circulated that the New York team has split into two factions, one of which is headed by Ruth, with the older players behind him, and the other composed of the players loyal to Manager Joe McCarthy. ‘This sort of silly talk is, of eourse, s natural result of the Yanks' sobog- ganing tendencies since they dropped four games to the Boston Red Sox and then went on to Chicago to take a few on the chin from the White Sox. Any time a championship team starts to slip, stories of internal trouble in the club get abroad with rapidity. In this case, stirring up a row” between Ruth and McCarthy seemead to be about as timely as any- thing that could be laid at the bot- tom of the Yankees' slump. Manager McCarthy has & contract with the New York club that has two more years to run. Ruth’s con- tract is enly for the current year. It 1s not conceivable that positions are going to be reversed and that ! Ruth suddenly take the lime- | light as manager of the team. In | sop event, it requires & more rugged individual than the Babe, with his o arquardt. | | |Splashing Time Equally Divided Triumphed Over Odds. OR the time being, nothing can F be taken away from Goodman, | and he can be given nothing but | credit for the gamest kind of an achieve- ment against big odds. He doesn'’t compare with Jones, Sarazen, Hagen or Ci ‘Wood as a power hitter, but he has a “sound” game. So long as he keeps and uses a “touch” around the greens that is at times little short of miraculous, and so long as he can reduce to a minimum his occasional streaks of wildness, the little Nebraskan will be as tough to beat or as difficult to discourage as any goifer in the game.

Base ball men here are inclined to take this rumor of dissension as something that would naturally fol- low after Ruth's long career in big leagues. Whenever the brilliance of an old star begins to dim and there is talk that he will be trans- ferred elsewhere another year, or asked to take a substantial salary reduction if he stays, stories are bandied about that picture the star in a quarrel with his manager.
