Otherwise, when the Griffs wind up their current home stay against the Yanks and Athletics and depart for another Western swing, Coppola will be left behind. " Once Sent Slab Hopes Soaring. THE cause for rejoicing in the Wash- ington ball club’s fold today was twofold. First, there is Earl White- hill's “comeback” after a string of failures. Secondiy, there is the pres- ence in town of the Yanks. Lest we forget, the Ruppert Rifles are the gents who treated the Griffs so nicely in Gotham last week by losing three of four games. To combat the Yanks, incidentally, Harris has available the three hurlers who beat 'em last time out, namely, Bump Hadley, Whitey Hayes and Buck Newsom. But not even this silver lining could quite offset the cloud which hovered over the dome of Coppola today. A victim of a sore arm for nearly two months, feared “washed up” for 1935. Nearly two months ago, it may be recalled, Harris unveiled the kid, who at once sent hopes for the Nationals’ pitching soaring. The squatty Italian debutted as a starting hurler on June 6 and shut out the Red Sox with five scattered hits. To Bucky, especially, it was encour- aging for it vindicated the Washinj ton pilot, who tabbed Coppola as & comer last March in Biloxi. BUT Bucky’s hopes, such as they were at the time, were short lived. The young Italian promptly pulled up with a sore arm that has refused to im- Hurls 15 Innings Since June 6. prove in spite of a tonsilectomy and | an extensive baking cure. At first the ailment was regarded as the probable affects of a cold, but this soon was dispelled. Signs of a strain then were looked for, but there were no such indications. Then it was discovered that Coppola’s - tonsils were bad. They promptly were yanked, but no improvement was shown. Now it i§ feared that poison in his system is keeping the kid's arm sore and that only a long rest will provide the cure. Thus will close another chapter in the story of Bucky Harris’ disappoint- ments of 1935 if Coppola is not able to cut loose by early next week, when the Griffs leave. “There can be no reason to carry him further,” reasons Harris, “be- cause since he first pulled up with this trouble Coppola has been of lit- tle use. He's worked only 15 innings since June 6 and has yet to show that fast ball that stamped him as such a good prospect.” Figures in 1936 Plans. BUT if Harris appears pessimistic re- garding Coppola’s future for 1935, there is no such sign as he contem- plates next season, which apparently is uppermost in the minds of the Washington bosses these days. “If everything goes well,” asserts Bucky, “that kid will wow ’em next gear. I haven't given up on him. As a matter of fact, I'm already counting on Coppola to be our No. 1 relief pitcher next year. If his arm Is okay—and there’s no reason why it shouldn’t be—Henry should make bne of the best rescue pitchers in base ball. He simply is too fast to be hit.” In the meantime the Nationals must worry along with “next year's No. 1 relief pitcher,” and this prom- ises to present its problems inasmuch as Jack Russell and Leon Pettit, the current fire-hat hurlers, have been nothing but reliefs to the oppositions. ©One shudders to think, upon recalling this pair’s recent efforts, what might have happened yesterday if the Red Box had gotten one more single. ‘Whitehill Rally Beats Bosox. 'HAT was how close the Bostons came to getting Earl Whitehill out of the box in the fourth inning of the finale, which eventually was won by $he Nationals, 9 to 5. After turn- Ing back the Sox in order for two innings, Earl gave up three runs in the third frame and two more in the next inning, when four of his five batsmen hit safely. One more hit and Whitehill was due to get the thumb, but Earl rallied, and from then on he was little short of in- vincible. The Red Sox got only two bits in the last six innings and of their total of nine safeties, seven were made in the third and fourth innings. And while Whitehill was winding up In such sensational manner, the Griffs were busy promoting a 17-hit attack that tied the score at 5-5 in the fitth round and then clinched the victory in the seventh with a four-run uprising featuring the Cinderella man, Red Kress. It was a single by the man-who- came-back that sent Heinle Manush across with the run that sent the Griffs ahead. Clif Bolton and White- hill chased across three other runs that ultimately proved unnecessary. —— TAKOMA TIGERS BUSY. ‘Takoma Tigers will play the Eighth Street A.

The Foening Stad Sporls WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1935. OLYMPICS LEADER OPPOSES 1. 5. BAN Politics in Germany Don’t Warrant Withdrawal of Team, Brundage Feels. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, August 2—The American Olympic Committee lined up today to combat any attempts to oppose American participation in the 1936 Olympic games in Berlin. Through Avery Brundage, president, the committee replied to Jeremiah T. Mahoney, president of the Amateur Athletic Union, who reiterated his opposition to the United States send- ing athletes to Berlin if charges of racial discrimination are proved. Referring to the revival of opposi- tion which followed the latest anti- Jewish and anti-Catholic activities in Germany, Brundage said: “Pledges satisfactory to the Inter- national and American Olympic Com- respecting the treatment of its own athletes, as well as those of visiting countries. No Adverse Reports. "IP IT develops these promises have been broken, further considera- tion can be given to the subject by the American Olympic Committee. So far we have had no reports whal soever, official or otherwise, that Ger- many has failed to give Jewish ath- letes a fair opportunity to qualify for Olympic teams. “It is my understanding, in fact, that in the case of Helene Mayer, champion woman fencer, German sports leaders have sought earnestly States to represent Germany in the Olympics.” Plenty Time to Act. BRU‘NDAGE admitted protests have been received from Jewish organ- izations charging German discrimina- tion and urging the American Olympic Ruthorities to act. He sald there is no intention of forcing a showdown in the immediate future in the racial or religious issues. “Whether or not it all blows over, there is plenty of time,” he said, “for the A. A, U. to consider its course of action by the time the annual conven- tion is held in New York this Winter. There are no scheduled meetings for the Olympic Committee and will be none until I issue a call.” AMERICANS SCORE OVER NORWEGIANS | Touring Trackmen Win Three Out of Four Events—Venzke Bows to Record-Breaker.

SHIELDS, who is staying at Green- wich, Conn., never has won the Eastern grass court title. Last year he was beaten in three sets by George | M. Lott in the semi-finals. Then he | bowed to Vernon Kirby of South Af-| rica in the round of eight in the na- | tional championships. Since going into the movies he has won the Southern California indoor | title and the Ojai tournament, defeat- ing Don Budge and Gene Mako, re- | spectively, in straight sets. “I'm keen for the tournaments this | year—much keener than last year, | after we were beaten in the Davis Cup challenge round,” he said. “I'm really | serious about it and expect to play | well enough at least to move up a| notch in the national ranking.” Last Year Unkind. ON the whole, 1934 wasn't kind to him, and he was demoted from No. 1 to No. 3 when the new rankings were announced. Wood will arrive Tuesday from Europe. He will receive a first-round bye, but may be required to play two | matches Tuesday afternoon to catch | up with the field. PITTS TO FALL BACK Brlieved Albany Will Send Him to Harrisburg Club.
