NATIONALS FINALLY
LOCATE CY YOUNG
Hit the Veteran for a Total OF
Seventeen Bases and Beat
the Maps.

The worm has turned. The seemingly
impossible has come to pass. Cy Young s
'.hoodoo' is dead and buried. FOR the
Ava, time in the memory of the Oldest
inhabitant the nine young men repre-
sentinr the Capital city in the American
League yesterday landed on the curves OF
the venerable twirler and beat out
total Of ten safeties. four runs and the
victory over Larry's Larrupers "hiie
all these things were happening to the
Ohio farmer Napoleon and his conorts
were being held in meek subsection by
long Thomas Hughes, and not one Oh
them got past third base.
Besides marking the downfall OF the
ever-mighty Cy yesterdays game was
filed with all sorts of incidents ana ac-
cidents. In the first place. and the most
distressing from the home clubs staho-
point, Otie Clymer was hurt In Siding
for the home plate and will be out OF ,ne nss
game for many days This is especlaiIs
unfortunate because the lad from Leoa
non had been showing marked eVidence
of getting his batting eye on the pan anu
he had already registered a douple anu
a single In his two turns at the pat. In
the very next inning Easterly. VINO was
on the receiving end of the Cleveland bat
terry. received foul off e.ehanty's nat
on the ends of his fingers. and also re-
tired from the contest.
Two Beauty Drives.
1t might be hard to determine Whether
George Brownies home run was an incl
dent or an accident Browne opened the
third inning with scorching drive into
right and the ball not only hit the cluD-
house on the bound. but 1t rolled all tne
way through the door, and George mace
the circuit. I'nglaub. who substituted IN
right field after Clymer was hurt, also
added to the incident column when ne
made a complete trip around the SACKS
after Ball had juggled Hinchmans re-
turn Of his three-bagger into deep left
center.
And while victory was smiling upon the
Nationals camp the three thousand and
three faithful fans who were in the
inclosure during yesterdays game were
given still one further cause for rejoicing.
IT was evident to all of them that Tom
Hughes al last seemed to be regaining his
od-time form. He did not blow up or
loosen up nor waver. nor wabble In any
one of the nine innings of the game. Nor
should this be attributed to the fact that
Tom has the Cleveland goat tied up in
his fiat. because the long man pitched
game yesterday which would have carried
him safely from soup to nuts in almost
any contest
Tailed One at Time.
Hdue ltS IouT runs. oUe dt
a time. in the second. third. sixth and
seventh innings. respectively. and all save
one of them were earned. The first tally
was due to Streets opportune bingle into
the center garden after Clymer had
doubled to left. Tally No. was Brownies
circus homer In the third session. After
two were out In the sixth. Unslaub tried
to hit his own number on the score board
and his triple developed into run when
Ball failed to catch Hinchman's relay and
then threw wild TO the plate. "Gabby
made his batting average 1851 for the
day on his third time up. In the seventh
inning. by sending hit just out Of Balfs
reach at short. He went to second while
Browne was being thrown out by Young
at first, and scored on Conroys splendid
double into left.
The visitors seemed more dangerous in
the first inning than at any later period
in the game. Goode. the first man up,
drew a pass. was sacrificed to second by
Bradley. but was run down between sec
ond and third on Balls warm tap to
Conroy. Ball pulled up at second on
the play and went to third on the only
error made by the locals during the
game. when Hughes threw wide to Nc
Bride in an effort to catch the runner
mapping at second. But Ball died at
third when Laioie lifted a long high fly
TO Browne in left
Tarried on the Bases.
Never after that did one Of Larry's
men got farther then second even though
they made two hits in the third inning
and a like number in the eighth. Hughes
never pitched better ball than he did in
the seventh when he struck out Stovall
and caused Bemis TO pop an easy one to
Delehanty, after Hinchman had reached
second on hard drive into Brownies
territory
Following is the official score OF the
