Washington fans will witness but six
more games in the concrete coliseum
this year. three with the worlds cham
pions tomorrow and Tuesday, and three
against Boston the flag end OF the season
The present week will be a strenuous
one in every sense of the word. with
seven hard games booked and four of
them against the league leaders in Bos-
ton.
The advent Of cool weather may have
a beneficial effect upon our young ath-
letes. also the influx of new blood. and
there is a bare outside chance that the
Nationals will crawl up a little bit closer
on Boston when these seven games have
been played
Manager Grifith refuses even at this
stage with Boston breezfng ahead' under
a ten-game lead, TO concede the pennant
to the Red Sox. I'VE are going TO take
four straight from McAleer's bunch up
in Boston," declared Grit. in an inter-
view last night; ''just see II We don't"
Grif figures that the long-expected
slump is liable to strike Boston any min
rte. and that when II does. the Ma
tionals viii be the club to jump on them
and beat them to the flag.
This confidence. which Is shared by
every member of Griff's family, is al
most uncanny.
Baseball Is a. quer proposition-you
never can tell what will happen The
old adage. There is nothing SO uncer-
ton as dead sure thing" applies to
the national game. II Boston should
strike a snag and run into a losing
streak. and Washington should take
on a new lease of life and kick up a
rumpus like that first and only trium-
phal- march through the West, there
is a remote possibility that when the
Nationals and Red Sox clash in the
Capital late In September that this
League championship.
The writer is not forecasting any
such event, but stranger things have
happened.
Outfielder Moran, obtained from the
Chattanooga club. arrived in the Cap
ital late last night and will be In uni
form tomorrow. Just when Griff will
put him into the game is not known.
Moran will be on the job. however,
ready to work in case he is needed.
Pitcher Wiley. sent here from Hunt
ington, w. Va, for trial, was sent
home yesterday. Wiley did not impress
Grin with indications OF future great
ness.
1t was learned from the most reliable
authority that Harry wolverton had jus,
as good as sgned Tol Pendleton, the
famous Princeton football and baseball
star. and that Pendleton would Join the
New York Yankees at the close OF his
college next June. 80
Pendieton is ten second track man
apd wonder on the bases. 1t was
through the influence Of Catcher Ster-t
rett a Princeton man himself. that
Pendleton pledged his word he would
sign with New York when he graduated
from Princeton next June.

NOTES OF THE GAME.

Kenworthy ran almost into the left field
barrier line in getting McMillan's foul
pop.
Though Mcbride did not get Hal Chase
on the throw to Gandil. he snapped the
speedy first sacker when he attempted to
purloin the base a minute later.
Jack Lelfvelt smashed a Louisiana lop-
per Milan's way, and after a hard run
infieldward our center guardian grabbed
Ii handily.
The unexpected always happens in
baseball. as was evidenced when Pad
dock missed Henry's easy fly.
Paddock got his base on fiuke, but
John Henry's unerring wing retired him
moment later
A foul from Hartzelrs bat tore the
straw hat OF spectator in the upper
stand. The man was uninjured-
The intrepidity Of Laporte is remarked
on among the fans.
Mcmillan went into second feet first,
but Laporte met HIM square and only
suffered a scratched arm.
Cashion's hit through the infelders
in the sixth brought much acclaim from
the crowd.
Moeller grabbed Hal chases fly iu the
seventh with his back plumb against the
right field fence.
Jack LelIvelt swatteth the bali these
days.
Kenworthy made q splendid smash to
left in the eighth. but was forced out at
second on McBride's infield grounder.
Henry's sacriace landed Capt Mcbride
on second.
A moment later cashion's smash put
Mcbride on third.
4 Too many pop flies.
The gathering OF Fosters grounder by
Mcmillan In the ninth was sensational
play. He easily got the kid at first.
