and maybe the showing of the young tvirlers
did not please the Old Fox He has gathered
together some pitching STAFF.
Long Tom Hughes occupied the role usually es-
sayed by Herman Schacfer coaching at third.
and maybe he didn't look long he walked
mast the stand with Wilbert Robinson Some
pair.

pitchers, doesn't happen every day.
Yesterdays game showed what Grifith's young
twirIers can do when that much-soughtfor con-
troll is at hand. Both Gsllia and Boehling de-
serve highest praise for their performances.
Only an unlucky bounce stood between the Ma
tionals and another victory. That home nm 81
Merkles a fukc. and had it been held to
a single there would have been a different tale
Until the Giants gathered in those three runs in
the fourth, neither team had threatened TO
cross the plate. Their last came in the
fifth, aided by Doyle's sacrifice fly.
Arthur Shafer made desperate try for GandiI's
nit in the sixth, but couldn't quite connect
Mc'iraw certsiny has a shifty youngster in his
shortfelder II nm, hmm. Violets.

hosed tribe. He not scored on while he
showed, and only issued one pass.
Bert Gallia's curves the real Stuff yesterday;
and some of the demon sluggers were fooled
nightly by his quick breaking shoots. Murray
especially having difficulty with them.
! All was quiet and serene along the coachine
paths Comedian Schacfer and his partner In
crime Herr Nicholas Altrock, were fulfilling
an out-Of-toNn engagement.

triple play would have been made.
Germany Shaefer and Nick Altrock. ball players

missed during the practice. Well, never mind,
you'll have them all season.
| Although johnson has pitched against the
wonderful Chrsty Mathewson, he has batted
against him, for Griffith let him hit for Gallia
in the fifth. Had Walter been a little faster
he would have beaten out a slow hit ball to
Shafer
MoelIer caught the first ball Mathewson served
him and carried it over Murray's head. Larry
Doyle made a fast relay to Herzog and nipped
the speed boy at the third corner.
