''They Have Punch" Says Griff's
Star, land Should Glide
Through the Series"
By THOMAS KIRBY.

The Athletics will win the worlds
series. No pitchers that l know of will
| be able to stop them, and they should
| be able to glide through short series
| with the Braves without any great
trouble
| This is the prediction of Walter John
son. who has often felt the sting OF
defeat at the hands of that ball-murder-
in crew in charge of Connie Mack.
THE Athletics have the punch that
will carry them through, in my judg-
ment And. incidentally. do not at
strength of that club. Their infeld is
fast. and this will be no small factor
when il comes to deciding the cham
pionship.' This was the way Johnson
explained his views of the situation.
The Nationals left here this morning
for Philadelphia, where they will this
afternoon resume operations against
the Athletics.
Two defeats at the hands of an i'm
provised team presented by Philadelphia
was so disgusting to Clark Griffith that
he said he was not in a position to make
definite prediction as to his pitcher,
but the indications are that it will be
Joe Engel who will work this after
noon.
That makeshift team that Mack pre-
sented yesterday had as it's principal
asset Weldon Wyckoff. He pitched one
OF the best games he has ever shown
, before the Washington public and the
result was that he pulled back the Ma.
! tionals in most impressive fashion and
held them back so close that they were
fortunate in escaping a shutout.
Johnny Bentley. who has been going
along nicely in his last few starts. but
who has been forced to shoulder an
abnormal amount of work, did well
enough yesterday to win an ordinary
game, but he had no one but himself
10 blame for the defeat.
In the fourth inning the pitcher picked
UP an easy chance off Davies bat and
slammed far over the head of Chick
Gandil and then came Walsh with a
furious G.ive which amounted TO a
home run.
In the eighth inning Griffith sent Dan
Moeiler in to hit for Bentley and Dtck
Williams finished the game. the sue

to a single run during the inning which
