acting duty. Note the asceticism Of
athletes and scouts. The ravages Of
drink are abated IS machinery, with
its demand for a clear brain and
steady nerves, is multiplied On every
hand. Each new stress of business
and professional rivalry puts a fresh
premium on sobriety and wise re-
straint.

!. TOBEAT NATIONALS
Games Here With National
League Winners Will Be
!. for Blood.
WANTS TO WIPE OUT TWO
DEFEATS OF PHILLIES
Catholic University Team May
/ Make Good Showing
Against Locals.
BY J. ED aRILLo.

The two games which the New York
Giants are to play here next Monday and
tuesday are attracting lot of attention
not only here. but also in New York. The
fact that the Nationals so easily won
two games from the Phillies has aroused
the Giants partisans. and it is under
stood that McGraw proposes to use his
best pitchers in the games here in the
hope of wrestling both games from the
locals.
Griffith. OH the other hand. will use
Johnson and Groom. These games are
sure to be for blood. Last spring the
Giants won both games here but Crit
nth did not have the team then that he
has now and there may be turn of the
tables.
The following from the New York Sun
indicates that these games are going to
attract lot of attention:
What will the Giants accomplish in
the two games with the Washingtons
next week? In view of the way Griffith S
men whaled the daylights out Of the
Philadelphia Nationals last Friday and
Saturday this question is asked by thou
sands of New York fans just now. Grit
fifth openly says that he has rod in
pickle for the Giants and predicts that
Walter johnson will smear them in the

fans in Washington that Bob Groom
will repeat the trick in the second strug-
gle. Griff declares that he would rather
beat the Giants than any other team in
the major leagues. But there is trouble
i'm store for the Old Fox, 1t would seem,
for McGraw Is carefully pointing his big
three = Matty, Rube and jeff - for the
grapples with the Senators, Is McGraw
worth bet? He is
Little Acesta is establishing quite a
reputation as "a lead off man. If he should
break into the lineup this season he is
certain to be placed at the head Of the
batting order for the very good reason
that he reaches first base SO often. In
the few games that Acosta has played
this spring he has reached the bases
much more often than he has failed Yes
terday against Alexandria he never failed
to reach first. When he is not walking
or being hit he is showing out base hits
or getting some kind of breaks. A play
er who gets on the bases a great deal is
very good reason that he is sure to score
a lot of runs
Jim Thorpe is not to be dropped by the
Giants. McGraw is out with denial of
the rurnors that the Indian won't do and
he predicts a great future for him. In
yesterday McGraw made the
following statement concerning Thorpe:
1T cannot be stated too emphatfca1ly
that Jim Thorpe will stick with the
Giants this season. Not only this sea-
son, but for many seasons to come. 1
am thoroughly satisfied with Thorpe's
both at Marlin and in the
games on the road.
