By SENATOR"

Joe Agler. Atlanta's crack first sack
err. reported to Manager Griffith today
for trial with the Griffmen before
soing back to his Crackers. He may
be used on the first corner today. but
at any rate will be In the Climbers
lineup before the end OF the season
to comply with the new rules agreed
upon by both big leagues regarding
youngsters taken into the big show.
Agler Is one Of the greatest fielding
first basemen In the game. His one
weakness is with the stick. Could he
hit like Gandil. he would stand an ex-
cellent chance Of making good with the
Nationals.
"Pd like to get a fair trial In the
big league" said Agler today, FOR
think with the coaching Ia receive, I'd
learn to hit the pitching up here. I'll
take q chance on the fielding end Of the
game"
The Nationals complete their home
season today. Tomorrow they will have
short workout before going to New
York to meet the Hignlanders in the
last three eames Of the season. The
players will attend the opening game
OF the worlds sertes m New York.
Tuesday. and then disband. ...
Two exhibition games will be played
Sunday next the Nationals will play
q semi-pro team In Hoboken, On Mon
dav they will meet the Highlanders In

FASTER

IN CENTERF|ELD
Red Sox Marvel Has No

Discovered.

Fred Snodgrass and Iris Speaker, rival
centerfelders Of the Giants and Red
Sox. are expected to attract more atten-
ton than any other players in the COM
ing clash between the leaders OF the two
leagues for the worlds championship.
These men are the bulwark OF the Of
tense and defense OF their teams, and
the bulk OF the hitting and fielding will
fall on their shoulders when the games
start.
Few question the fact that Speaker 10

Snodgrass fails miserably In compari

ed. He can hit anything. Is lightning
fast on the bases. and Is one of the
most finished felders that the game has
ever seen. with Hooper and Lewis, he
makes up the greatest outfield in the
game today, and 1t is largely through
his efforts that Jake Stahl is able to
take his team into the coming worlds
series.
Both players have been with their
teams for four years during which time
thew have averaged 200 or better. This
Is the poorest year in hitting that Snod-
grass has experienced, while iris Speak,
err has shone from the start Of the CAM
paign back In April. There Is no aues-
ton but that Speaker Is the better man
In every department Of the game. Snod-
grass throws well but Speaker shoots
the ball in ahead OF the runner with
more deadly accuracy; he will take
more chances than snodgrass and being
hammered in victory after victory
which has not marked many OF Snod-

The second Joe was even wilder than

leaping and prancing about the plate.
Jake stahl was most timid about taking
his turn at the bat. Would that his
timidity had lasted, for it was the
doughty leader Of the Crimson Hosed
brigade who splashed double down the
