to pay their respects. Boehling hopes to
Law the foundation of another winning
streak at the expense OF the Tigers this
afternoon. This Tiger team has not been
easy picking for the Nationals this sea
son. There is such vast difference IN
the comparative standing of the two
teams that one might figure the locals to
stand a good chance OF winning a major
ity of the games from the visitors. but
to date this has not been accomplished.
In fact. the Tigers have little shade on
the series. Jennings team shows a flash
of it's former stride every now and then.
and it seems to have been the luck OF
the Nationals to be playing against 1t
under such conditions.
Under the rules a double-header should
have been played today, but as neither
Manager Griffith nor Jennings was anX-
ious to force his players into a double
header during the hot spell. a single
game. which will be called at $50 today,

1t is most likely that Manager Griffith
will have to select new training place
for next spring, for 1T is understood
that the team will not return to Char
lottesviIle AS yet nothing definite has
been decided upon, but 1T is assure
that the team will not go very foa
from here to prepare itself Tor the
campaign of 1914. The wisdom OF haV-
ing the players resort to climate
which is very similar to that of Wash

start the team has made both spripg s

One reason for the scarcity Of pitchers
brought up from the minors is that most
of them are overworsed by the time they
come up for trial. A successful pitcher
in the miners gets very little rest pc
does not care to farm out young pitchers
who show him AGILITY. because large

because they have been overworked.
Boston is only few points behind the
Sox now and is playing such improved
ball that it is most likely to pass its

saved if they eventually turn out all
right.
Notwithstanding the fact that, accord
ing to the big league scouts, there is
less good material in the minors this
year than ever before, the chances are
that there will be just as many players
purchased again this fall and that the
usual number. of drafts will be made. In
many instances this will prove waste of
money. but the desire to better teams is
always great and club owners will take
long chances in the hope of having the
unexpected happen and secure a star
Present indications are that the Wash
ington club will not play an important
part in either the purchasing or drafting.
To date Griffith has made two buys He
secured Spencer, an outfielder, from
Petersburg, and Hedgepeth a pitcher,
from the same club. Both will be de-
livered in the fall On the reports which
his scouts have made to date, the chances
are that but few players will be drafted,
for the very good reason that the minors
have but few players who, in the judg
ment of those that look them over, can
make good in fast company.
Ban Johnson has seen fit to change
his Interpretation of one Of the rules
He has held until recently that if
a pitcher while in the act of deliver

base runners must return to their
bases. This was found unsatisfactory.

BY J. ED GRILLo.

That it pays to carry young ball play
ers for several years in the hope of
developing them has been proved by the
sudden coming to the front of Boehling
and Engel. For a time it seemed only
waste of time and money to carry
these youngsters on the pay roll, and yet
if either of them was showing their
present form with some minor league
club big league scouts would be offering
large sums of money for their release,
and they would lack the major league
experience they now possess.
There has been some doubt in the
minds of the patrons of the game here
as to Griffith's policy of carrying the two
Cubans. Acosta and Calvo. Neither has
shown much since joining the team. but
in time Griffith will be justified for the
time and money he is spending on the
two boys, for they are sure to develop
into good ball players.
1t Is, of course, not to be expected
that either will be ready for regular
position on the team for quite while
yet. II may take couple OF years to
bring them to the front. but the time
that is being devoted to developing them
will not he wasted. and a lot of money

however. because a wise pitcher might
take advantage of the rule, SO that
Johnson has now notified his umpires
that the ball is in play if it is dropped
base runners advance at their own
peril
The change is for the better. It is
a logical way to cOnstrue the rule, and
will save the umpires a lot of trouble.
If proper arrangements can be made
by which the New York Americans can
continue to play their games on the
Polo Grounds the chance should not
be overlooked. There is no available
place for ball ground in New York
which could ever be as popular with
the public as the Polo Grounds, and
the American Leaguers could draw bet
ter there than anywhere else in New
York. kingsbridge is spoken Of as the
place where the new ball park will be
built. 1t is learned on good authority.
however. that nothing has been done
in preparing for the new plant, and
that If possible the Polo Grounds will
be secured for an indefinite period.
Every now and then some managers
have occasion to regret their failure to
vile. the sensational shortstop of the
Boston Nationals, could have been had
for a song last spring. Every one OF
the other MANAGERS turned NED MN dom an
sa ton in the old league.
In the American League there was a
similar instance. Shang, the young
catcher now doing such brilliant work
for Connie Mack's team. was offered to
various clubs. Frank Chance could have
had him in exchange for a pitcher
named Patrick Green, but turned it down
because he was led to believe that Green
was a wonder when, in fact. he never
made good in fast company. Shang is
a star, and would have been just the
man to help the Yankees out this year.

EIGHT LEAGUES
IN BIG SERIES
Other Amateur Circuits Not
Eligible for Representation in
Post-Season Games.
SEVERAL WINNERS
ALREADY DECIDED
Other Organizations Have
Quite a Number of Games
to PIay-0ther Gossip.
BY n. c. BYRD.

While there are about dozen amateur
leagues in operation in and around Wash
ington, only eight will be represented
in the post-seaSon series. That is the
number that have been working under
an agreement with the amateur COM
mission since the start of the year. The
others have never adhered to the rules
of the committee governing uUs-teur
ball, and are, therefore. ineligible to COM
pete in the championship games.
Those leagues which will be represent
ed in the post-season series are as fol-
lows: Marquette, Central. Capital City,
Departmental, Railroad Y. NJ. C. A, East
Washington Sunday School, Federal and
Northwest Sunday School. In three of
these the schedules have been closed and
a winner declared. The Trinity club is
the champion in the Marquette circuit;
Interior has won the title in the De-
partmental, and Car Department was a
sure winner when the Railroad League
! was compelled to end its season.
The Ninth Street Christians are almost
certain to get the pennant in the East
Washington League, while it seems that
Emmanuel is almost as sure to be the
victor in the Northwest Sunday School
circuit. The championship will hardly
be decided in the Federal before the last
of next week, as the final series between
the two winners will be played then.
Whether or not the Sherwood club will
meet another team in the Central League
for the title in final series will not be
known until after it plays the final game
with the Printers, which will probably
be the deciding contest. The Capital City
League is still in doubt as far GER
tain winner is concerned although the
odds appear to favor the Bankers some
what.
Several changes have been made in the
schedule of the Northwest Sunday School
League The schedule has been extended
until August 8, which should give ample
time for the closing of the post-season
series The remainder Of the schedule
is as follows:
The dates are as follows: July 81. st:
Paul VS.. Immanuel: August l. Mount
Pleasant VS.. Calvary: August 2, Fourth
Presbyterian VS.. Mount Pleasant: Au-
gust 4. open date; August .. Whitney
Avenue VS.: Emmanuel IA, august O. open
August 8. open date; August ., Emmanuel
vs. Mount Pleasant.
Munich, the catcher farmed to Syracuse
by Clark Griffith early last spring and
who came home for a few days week be-
fore last because OF an injured finger,
will be out Of the game for two weeks
more The nail on the finger had to be
removed because OF an infection. Munich
said that the operation had been very
painful. and he did not know exactly
when he would be able to start play
again.
There is but one more month of the
amateur base ball season, and during that
time the post-season series must be fin
ished, and also several Of the leagues
must complete the schedules. There is
not a great deal of time at the disposal
of those controlling amateur ball to fin
