Ii calls for brains to start triple
play. Well. boys, The four lads
whose pictures you see here have
produced the goods by starting
triple plays in the American League
this season. And the Griffmen pos
scss two of this quartet of beauties
in John Henry, the big backstop, and
Chick Gandil, the long-armed and
long-legged first baseman.
AS matter of fact, the Iriffmen
have completed two triple plays this
year, which is twice as many as
those Of any other outfit in the
league. The first one showed up IN
Philadelphia and the second one
right here in the Capital, the worlds
champions being the victims on both
occasions. Oh, yes, we're little bit
proud of these boys for their 5ralny
work on the diamond. Who wouldn't
be?
six triple plays have been seen this
year. four in the American League ana
two in he National League. Wash
ington has two to its credit and the
Maps, Yankees. Giants, and Cubs have
one apiece. Washington was the VIC
tim of the Yankees endeavor. The
Mackmen twice were nipped by the
Griffmen while the Maps hunS the
triple tin can on the Brownies. The
Giants rolled up their feature stunt on
Charlie Dooin's Phlllies. while the Cubs
showed three of the St Louis Cardi-
nails how Il felt to expire all on one
play.

satiOnal Los Angeles twirler. who they
intend to try to obtain in the fall.
Washington has a working agree
ment with Los Angeles which gives
Griffith the option on any member OF
the California club and as Ehmke is the
most coveted it is most likely that
he win claim the pitcher
Ehmke, who is less than twenty
years old, has won seven consecutive
games and is voted by many the best
number OF years Griffith declared to-
day that he has not the slightest doubt
that when the call is sounded next
fall Ehmke Will be among those who
report to him. Callahan and Griffith
talked over the case in Chicago last
lieves that he convinced the Sox leader
of the futility of trying to land the
Californian.
With the record of twenty defeats
and nine more victories the Nationals
seem to individually and collectively
feel that their chances today are bet
ter for landing on the top of the
heap at the finish than ever before.
Cleveland has yet to win game from
the Griffmen in the last eleven starts.
This. of course, includes the games to-
ward the close of the last campaign. but
also takes into consideration four
Washington triumphs in the engage
ments which have been fought this
year.
The Athletics have the Nationals by
four to two in the matter of victories
and defeat, while the Griffs have thrice
beaten Detroit and suffered one set
back. won six and lost four to st. Louis,
won five and lost six to Boston. won
five out Of seven from Chicago, and
copped seven out OF ten from New
York.
This summary shows that Philadei-
phia and Boston are the only teams on
the looS that have anything on the Ma
tionals.
Griffith hopes to start either Har-
per or Bentley in one of the games at
Detroit. II this plan is upset il is likely
that one of these young left-handers
will be used for relief purposes should
an emergency arise.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, June Ia
After having spent most OF the night
flying through 4 heavy rain. the Ma
ionals arrived here this morning to
ind conditions almost perfect.
Walter Johnson will pitch and
will probably be opposed by Bill
Steen.
Ray Chapman is expected back at
short for the Maps, but Joe Jackson
is suffering with an injured knee
and will probably not play.
Joe Roehling this morning re-
ceived a wire that an uncle of whom
ne was especially fond died yester-
asy, but the pitcher will not be able
to attend the funeral in Richmond.
Walter Johnson smiled when shown
story from Washington in which the
.,sughter of Congressman Roberts de-
sd her engagement TO the pitcher.
Well, l suppose that must stand for
ne present was Johnson's significant
comment.
The Nationals remain here until We'd

'ive-game series with Detroit.

70 use johnson twice against the

The rain of yesterday was keen
disappointment to Griffith as he was
0onfident that he would have been able
10 beat the SoX by uslng Shaw, which
would have made the count three to
one in favor of the Nationals.

Jimmy Walsh Returns
To Connie Mack's Team

CHICAGO. June 1+-Pete Daley has
left the Mackmen and reports today to
the Yankees in exchange for Jimmy
Walsh. the outfielder sold to Chances
team last winter. Connie Mack prefers
Walsh. who is a right-hand hitter. and
was more than willing to make the
swap suggested by Chance. Walsh's
hitting was good this spring. but he
has fallen off badly, and so Chance

CONSERVING Onr Strength.

This II the time or the year when II
is prudent to be careful about health
conditions. After the rigors Of the
winter months and the more or less
indoor exercise occasioned thereby
the system, as rule, becomes de-
pleted and its recuperative powers
are taxed to meet the demands Of the
changing season. The Springtime
marks the rebirth Of nature and the
quickening process extends even to
our physical condition. TO obtain
the best results, therefore, it is neces-
sary that we run no risks but con-
serve the strength left over from the
winters siege upon which to build
up our general health. We can not
afford to draw too heavily upon
nature at any time, but particularly
during the present season when we
face the long, hot summer months
with their constant drain upon our
vitality.
There is such a thing as being a
spendthrift i'm the matter OF health.
Because we are 30 fortunate as to
feel strong and vigorous we some
times become prodigal, AZ 1T were,
and waste the very powers which
should be most carefully guarded for
our future well-being. The man who
spends his money and never saves for
"a rainy day" is no less improvident
than the man who by constant de-
mands upon his physical powers ex-
hausts his NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. News
