Nationals Boss Realizes that
Many Promising Youngsters
Are Developed in ANA
teur Ranks.
KIDS TO GET TRY.OUTS
by c. w. SWAN.

Manager Grifith. of the Nationals, will
look to the sand lots in the future for
stars.
This policy will be lived up to by the
boss of the Climbers. as he realizes that
there are few good ball players in the
American Association and International
League. The men doing the best work
in these circuits are men who have been
let out by major league clubs.
This idea began working in Manager
Grifiith's mind last winter, when he
grabbed Joe Engel and Joe Boehling
These youngsters have shown the Boss
that there are a few big leaguers on the
town lots, and in the future the scouts
Of the Washington club will look over
the home talent first.
Talent 10 be Grabbed.
OF course. this does not mean that
Manager Griffith will not watch the
other circuits. Whenever a man who
appears to possess talent enough to war
rant giving him a trial is known he will
be looked up at once, and no chances
will be taken. but for the majority of
the time the little bush leagues and sand
lots will be watched.
Manager Griffith bases his plan on the
theory that very few Of the great stars
ever come from the big minor leagues.
That is. they nave not in recent years.
The big minor league clubs are content
to take the cast-offs OF the big league
teams. and last year the Minneapolis
team. which won the pennant in the
American Association, was composed al
most entirely OF former stars of the big
show.
The time Is past when the managers of
major league clubs can pick up a star
in a well-esta blished minor league-they
must go out and dig them up.
johnson Came from Lots.
There are many present-day stars who
were grabbed of the back lots. Take
Walter johnson. the wonderful pitcher
OF our Nationals. He was secured from
a little jerkwater town in Idaho. while
Ty Cobb, the premier hitter OF the big
leagues. was secured from a tank town
in Georgia DOME Bush. once rated as
the king OF American League infielders.
was a sandlotter when discovered, and
was farmed out for seasoning, and so
on. too many TO mention.
Griff has given orders TO his scouts to
corral the likely looking youngsters.
and when he takes his squad South next
spring it is a safe bet that he will have
as large a bunch as any major league
club in the country.
Russell Lee. one OF the former star ball
;ossers of the District. who used to hold
down the place behind the bat for the
old Capital Athletic Club when that ag-
gregatIon held sway on the Monument
Lot, dropped into town last night. Rus
sell has been in the wild and woolly
West for the past five years and states
that he has been playing a little ball
with a fast semi-pro outfit OF Chicago.
Lee will be remembered as the young
ster who caught for the kid team which
made such a reputation against the old
er organizations when the old Marquette
League was organized some five or six
years ago. and held sway on the Monu-
ment Lot. Lee caught for the Christ
Church club and was the terror OF the
circuit with the stick

LAUNDRY HINTs.

Soaking clothes over night dis
solves some dirt and softens 1t all so
that the clothing washes much easier
because of the soaking. Place the
white. unstained clothes In tub OF
luke warm soapy water. allowing them
to soak an hour helps much In the
washing.
When washing woolens there are
several things to remember. Never
to put them into very hot or very cold
water; 1t shrinks them.
Never rub soap on them, as It knots
the hber and hardens them. Put them
into soapy water.
Never wiring or twist them with the
hands. Squeeze the water out gently
with wringer
Hang to dry in fres circulation OF
air out of the hot sun.
Press them with a moderately warm
iron on the wrong side. with a piece
OF paper or muslin between the wool
en- and the iron.
Scorched linen may be whitened by
wetting the spot and letting 1t lie
exposed to the SUM-
Rust stains may be removed by lem
on juice and salt left exposed to the
suns rays. Sometimes obstinate spots
OF long standing may have to be treat
ca several times. but patience will re-
move them
Washing FIuid.-Take two ounces OF
salts Of tartar and powdered borax. o
gallon Of boiling water and a half pint
OF ammonia, after the fluid is cold, a
car of potash To ;use--Soak the
clothes in cold water. then put into
boiler half cup of the liquid with
sufficient soap dissolved in It and
boil the clothes half hour, take out
and rinse and blue. The clothes will
seldom need any rubbing. except the
very soiled spots.
