The belated clicking of this trio comes too late to undo the damage of this season, ironically enough, but better late than never is an assurance for Harris, who almost certainly will be at the helm again next year, that he can bank on some members of the current staff which dragged the ! Nationals thrcugh the mire a few months ago. Play .500 Ball at Home. BY WAY of showing what & little | steady pitching has meant, the Nationals have played at a .636 pace since returning to Griffith Stadium the first of this month. At that time a Washington club was in grave danger of finishing in last place for the first time in 26 years, but, sud- denly and without warning, a big- league brand of pitching broke out and since September 1 the Nationals| have won 14 victories, lost 8 and| tied another game on their home ground. They've won three of their last four series and split even in the other. and so torrid has ‘been their pace that today the Griffs actually show a .500 record at home this sea- son. If they split even in their last two games of the year—tilts today and tomorrow against the Yankees— | the Nationals will wind up with 38 victories as against 38 defeats and one tie at Griffith Stadium. This same pace on foreign fields would have them battling for third place in the American League standing. But forgetting what is past and looking to the what's promised in the future, the specter of Newsom and Links acting as bulwark of next year's pitching staff looms large. Dur- ing the Washington club’s home stand | this pair has accounted for 9 of the 14 victories, while being charged with only 1 of the 8 defeats. Finish 29 of Last 30 Starts. W’HEN they pitched the Griffs to a lop-sided double victory over the Athletics yesterday, Linke and New- some made it 11 straight victories for the pair of 'em, with Linke boast- ing a string of 7 wins in a row.

LPHONSE TUFFY LEEMANS has appeared downright bored with the preceedings at Camp Letts, where the George Washington Colonials have just fin- ished their foot ball training, except for the last week, when the squad got in some heavy licks under actual play- ing conditions. With the toot of the opening whistle in each of these semi-formal battles, the famous backfleld man has sprung to life as though shot with strychnine. Today some 200 folks who journeyed to Letts yesterday tc see an intra- varsity game are convinced the Tuff, who bears a remarkable physical re- semblance to Jim Thorpe, is in a fair way of emulating the greatest of 'em all in foot ball performance. Showing the same old Leemans fighting spirit, but revealing even a better brand of ball carrying than that | which gained more than 1,000 yards for George Washington last year, Tuffy scored three touchdowns as his A team handily defeated the B team in & regulation game. Makes Three Long Runs. N THE opening kick-off Leemans threaded through the entire op- posing line-up for 75 yards and a touchdown. A short while later he sprinted around right end, stiff- armed two tacklers and jogged 55 yards to score. Finally he snared a lateral pass thrown smartly by Full- back Herb Reeves and dashed 60 yards for his third touchdown. . the 1935 Leemans AS WATES HELP Estallella Remains on Third For Nats by Po USTODJAN of third base for the Nationals during the last seven games of the American League season will be Senor Roberto Estallella, it was announced today by Manager Bucky Harris. Declaring that young Buddy Lewis of Chattanooga is not in good enough shape to do himself justice, Harris has decided to play Estallella at third hereafter and conflne Lewis’ activity to light practice. ‘This was the original plan of the Griff boss, bi share infield duty with the colorful Cuban. Since then his failure to hit has convinced Bucky that the grueling Southern Association campaign took | too much out of the 19-year-old| Lewis. In the five games in which he has | played Lewis has batted 19 times and | made only one hit for an average of .053.

In his previous game he singled across the winning run in the ninth inning of a 5-to-4 game with the White Sox.

The Cards won a double-header from Cincinnati, taking the first game, 14 to 4. when the Reds went to pieces and made seven errors to aid the 15 Cardinal hits.

When he is hit and hurt he laughs to show it is nothing. He does not think then, he just fights. ‘That may become very dangerous for him in the ring. If hit and hurt by Louis he may do this and become grotesque instead of in deadly earnest. BAm hit on the, chin, probably does not feel it as much as another fighter, on account of his almost pathological vanity. His big ego is a good protection. I think Louis would be easier to knock down, because of Baer's better !blllnce on his toes. But a knock- down may have less harmful effect on Louis than on Baer. The significance of these and other factors in predicting the winner and the course the fight will take will be analyzed tomorrow. ‘The analysis will include two sides of the asset on which Baer's backers rely most—his ability to turn into & primitive fighter and to threaten to tear Louis to pieces in one of his outbursts. How his ability to improvise in emer- gency, the quality whlt,;h spontaneous temperaments like Mussoline seem to , may affect various stages of the fight will be evaluated. The possible weakness in the won- der-working “transference” of train- ing between Blackburn and Louis will be shown, the probable critical mo- ments for both fighters may be an- ticipated. Baer's tiring, whether Louis’ ex- treme youth is real as thosc betung against him think, the influence of the men in the corners, what the fight- ers should have done differently in preparation, and their psychologicai conduct immediately before entering the ring will be analyzed for direct bearing on foretelling who will win.
