BEATS NATIONALS S
Tantaizing Slow Balls and Amazing Fast Ones Re-
sponsible for Shut Out, and New York Gets Young
Cashion in Hole for Awhile
By SENATOR"

Ray Fisher did 1t. He did It with his
fast ones. But he did 1t, that's the main
thing. He never gave the Nationals a
chance to get started and breeZed home
to a 4 to 0 victory without turning q
hair. Oh, it was rather soft for Ray.
Yep, those Highland laddies got busy
yesterday and grabbed off a game in
part payment for that double-header OF
the day before A young mob of fans
was watching proceedings, and every
time Red Walker smiled and "Husk
Cashion swung his right hand higher
than the bridge Of his nose applause
gushed forth. Oh, twas a very holiday
crowd, with everybody happy.
Cashion twirled, and after the first in
ming was very much to the good. In
deed, the more the fans see of this big
chap the better he locks to them. He
has all the confidence in the world,
and as soon as he picks up some point
ers on how they do things in the big
league he'll be a very valuable young
fellow to have around ball yard.
In a Hole At Beginning.
The Kilties got busy in the first inning
and had MIN in a hole before he really
started, but after that Roy HartZelI.
who must have surprised himself with
his hard hitting, was the only means OF
scoring. Hartzell came up jauntily and
smashed outIWo homers. This is really
going some for Roy.
The Nationals just couldn't quite get
things under way properly to bring
home the tallies. This big fellow Fisher
had the class, and not till the eighth
inning were the McAleer minions able
to get two bingles in a row. That was
the best they could do then, too, for
friend Fisher just buckled down to his
Job and froze Schaefer and Lelivelt.
who fondly imagined they were to be
hopes of the white race. etc.
Harry Wolter, in the opeSing session,
waited and ambled. He went all the
way to third a moment afterward.
when Charlie Hemphill singled to right.
Doc Gessler thought he could nail VOL
ter, so he hurled the pill at "Wid" Con-
roy. Wild had an idea that he might
pill out somewhere near right field.
''Wid'' seldom does foolish things like
that, and everybody was awed or
course, Harry Wolter passed the par,
and HemphiI was safe on second.
Cashion apparently didn't like the sit
uation at ali, for which he cannot be
blamed. He took too much time to get
down to work, and Hemphill sneaked
third. That seemed to worry Cashion
a whole lot, and so he brought forth a
marvellous wild pitch, one of the real
kind that travels all the way to the
stand and hates TO stop there. Yes.
that's right, Hemphin scored the second
run. The Nationals boy pitcher i'm
mediately became serious and famed
Chase and Cree. Oh, Cashion Is some
twirler.
Hartzell's Good Break.
Two were down in the fourth when
Roy Hartzell came into the limelight.
Roy, who slugs on the wrong side of
the pan, just lifted one of Cashion's
shoots over that right-feld barrier.
Furthermore, that confunded pill hit the
fan-factory outside, and came back to
rub 1t in. Oh, friend hoy trotted
around. Things have been breaking
right for Roy this season, and we are
all happy thereat.
However there wasn't any need even
for him to try 1t over again, but he did.
In the ninth inning, when We had about
decided that nothing but a miracle
could cop the victory for US, this same
little fellow came up with two gone and
carefully hammered that pill 10 the port
barrier. There was some excitement to
that crack, because he had to beat
Milan in running. Milan had to travel
clear to the fence, and never had
chance to get the speeding Hartzell.
And that's all there was to 1t, just
those two runs on fuzzy work In the
