Nationals Are Most Talked Of Team American League Other Sp(
SHOWING OF McALEER'S TEAM
ATTRACTS MUCH ATTENTION
If Youngsters Strengthen Team First Divi-
sion Berth in Next Campaign Is
Not Out of Question.

this purpose. and on his minor league
resord he stands good chance OF nlhns
the bill.
So far as the catching department Is
concerned. the Nationals are better for
titled than any team In the league. the
pitching staff. too. is strong, and Will
be added TO by next year.
1t Is, Of course, safe to say that Nc
Aleer does not propose TO make any
changes in his team until he is convinced
that the new players are better than
the old. and. what is more. it would
not be at all surprising If he carried both
Conroy and Killifer for emergency places
II this pair fails to be played regularly.
1t is not unlikely that Ralston. the
Akron outfielder, will make his first ap-
pearance in a Washington uniform
against the New York team tomorrow.
The Ohio and Pennsylvania League sea-
son ended Labor day and Ralston IS ex-
pected to leave there at once and join
the Nationals.
On his performance last season Dolly
Gray did not promise much. but his work
this season has been of a high order. He
has pitched consistently this year and
must be numbered among the successful
left handlers Of the American League.
Before the season is over Jim McAleer
will allow Bill Otey to start q game OF
his own. To date he has been used only
to finish a few games. and on each &C.
casion he has shown good form. Otey
is far from being himself as yet. He
still needs to take on weight and get
stamina, but he has all the earmarks OF
making a good left-handed pitcher.
The New York team, like Boston, has
been one Of the hardest propositions for
the Nationals this season. For some rea-
son or othe. IL has been impossible for
the locals to hit their pitchers. while our
own. twirlers have been none too effective
against them.
The Highlanders will make their final
appearance OF the season here in the
series which opens tomorrow. II will be
Walter Johnson on the rubber for the To-
Gals. with probably Hughes or Quinn
pitching for the visitors.
Mcconnell and Lord are showing their
worth to the White Sox by their good
hitting. The two former Boston players
are setting a fast pace with their bats,
and IL Duffy could get some of his veter-
ans TO follow in their wake he would have
winning combination. Notwithstanding
the effort that has been made to build
the Sox into winning combination little
Roadway seems to have been made and II
Will require a lot more time and expendi-
ture OF money to get the material which
DUFFY needs before he will have a team
which can cut a figure in the American
League race notwithstanding the fact that
he has a strong pitching staff.

Byrd had a busy day in fielding. He

Three errors were charged against

Five misplays were charged against

low the Cornell & Co. team, winners of
the Capital City League pennant, a single
hit in the second game yesterday, an
error by one of his teammates cost Pet
worth the contest, the final score being
/ too
Gallagher pitched one of the best games
of his career. He did not go in for q
strike-out record, but kept the swats OF
the Tigers down SO that his teammates
could reach them. Buscher. who opposed
him for the Tigers, also pitched a good
game. although at times he was wild.
But two hits were secured on him. He
had six strikeouts and gave three bases
on balls.
The error which resulted in the win
ming run was made by Lefty Clayton.
when In the first inning, with Marceron
on third and two down. Salb drove a long
fly to left. Clayton got under 1t with
ease. and, in fact, was too easy with II.
which resulted In the leather slipping to
the ground and Maceron scoring.
OF the two hits made by the Petworth
team Seitz landed one and Clayton got
the other.
Johnny Salb made his appearance In the
post-season series yesterday. when he
covered the short field for the Cornell
Company. He played fine game in the
field, but fell victim Of Gallagher's spit
ball Four put outs and four assists were
credited to him without one missplay.
Charley Moran was also busy In the
field, getting four put outs and four as
sists. He likewise was unable to do any,
thing with the splitter offered by Gala

the job, and with cannon-ball drive
to Evans got the runner at the initial
sack.
Three double plays were pulled OF.
Cornell figuring in two OF them.
Buscher. Salb and King got the first
and Salb and Moran the next. GAL
one for Petworth.
With the bases loaded in the NTH
round. from free passes by Buscher
and Gallagher up. he picked out
over Salb's head. The shortstop. how
ever, made one of the best plays OF
the game and landed the leather as IT
was dropping behind him and doubled
Stewart at second.
Jimmy Kerr landed on the pill In the
ninth round and as II sailed toward
right looked like q sure double. Mayne,
however. came tearing in and got II
Just off his shoe tops
Stewards work around the third
corner was little short OF sensational.
He landed everything that he could get
his hands on. Several OF his chances
were made on balls bounding high over
his head. He had two putouts and four
assists.
Bob Evans as in the game against
the Commissioners pulled OF some fne
plays around the first sack. He had
fourteen chances. all OF which he land
ed without slip UP.
Only one error was scored against
the Cornell team. this being charged
to Dutch Kinney. Four misplays were
made by the Petworth boys. Dempsey
at the short field having two and Clay
ton and Mossburg each getting one.
Charley King put UP his usual good
game on the first corner for the Cor
nell team, having ten chances.

sides in that part of Bratenahl still
known as Doan street, sorted out her
husbands cast-of clothing. To the
first applicant who came along she
handed a complete suit of clothes
which she thought had seen enough
service and the man went of rejoicing
and volubIy thanking her.
This week he reappeared at the
NeF home, where he was Immediately
recognized.

me suit Of clothes. In the pocket Of
