Y(UNGSTER DOESN'T
'QU|TE LOOK GOOD
When Milan Comes Back to the
Team, Mitchell Will Take Up
lob Warming the Bench.
By THOMAS KIRBY.

Johnny Blair, the outfelder who wa
signed as a valuable asset to the Wash
tnEton ball club, has been released Il
the Martinsburg club. The original ar
-sngement was that Griffith was to TAX.
. look at the player, and. if he cam,
up to expectations, he was to remain q
member Of the Nationals. If he failed
TO impress the manager he was to b,
returned.
Walter Leverenz or Bill James will b.
sent to the mound this afternoon to op
pose the Nationals. This decision wa:
arrived at by Branch Ricky, after q
meeting of the st. Loui ball club this
morning.
There seems to be a decided division
of opinion as 10 how the Washington
Outheld will be aligned when Clyde
Milan returns to the game. The outfield
will be the same as II was originally. 1t
viii be Shanks, Milan. and Moeller.
In case Griffith decides that one of
hese mea must later give way to the
limited hitting ability of Mike Mitchell
= will be Moeller or Shanks who must
E!ve way. The plan now, however, is to
Aeep Mitchell in reserve as an emer-
gency hitter, and as soon as the oppor-
unity arises he Will be shot into the
contest to relieve one of the men who
IS not able to hit as heavily as the one
Who was discarded by all the National
league clubs.
When Griffith obtained Mitchell il was
18th the hope that he would be able to
de into the opening caused by the dis
aoility of Milan. as Acosta is so weak
sslnst left-handed pitchers that there
as little hope for the Cuban when
there were left-handers working.
Mitchell has been clouting and
smashing the ball at every turn since
he became an American Lacquer, and
It is up to the regular outfielders to
show a mighty brace in their hitting
or they are likely to find that he will
be occupying one of the places in which
they have been holding up to the time
nat Milan met the accident In his
collision with Moeller.

Mara@er Griffith Sends Blair Back MQrisbw9 Club LIVE SP
BINGLES AND BUNTS
By GRANTLAND RICE
The Mirakle Man.

II George Stallings takes his Braves
to second place-which he Is fairly sure
to do. even IL he doesn't plant them at
the top-his Boston career will be an
exact photograph Of his New York
achievement.
Sailing came to tho Yanks in 100.
when they had just finished last and
were In q terrible state of decompo-
sition. BY the end Of the year he had
lifted them to fifth place; by the flnal
stages of the year after he had taken
them to second place-achieving one of
the miracles of the trade before he was
supplanted and turned adrift.
For two seasons after that Stallings
held no big league commission. but In
1913 he was again brought back under
the big tent and awarded charge OF
another tailender. II anything, the Bos-
ton Braves of 1s12 carried . greater
of 1905. Yet Stallings again went to
work on a hopeless task, and. without
using dynamite or any other explosive,
promptly lifted the Braves to NTH place
just as he had lifted the Yanhs four
years before.
The 1874 Campaign.
When the 1914 campaign opened there
were . few who believed that stallings
could hoist the Braves into the hrst di-
vision. A lesser number tipped him to
finish third. But. when. by the middle
of June. his people were bad last.
staggering under q heavy burden Of
losses, tho first division tip was ex-
ploded and no one figured he had .
chance of even holding fifth place at
the end Of the year.
By July 1 he had begun closing tn on
Pittsburgh and Brooklyn: by July 20 he
had passed both clubs; by August I he
had passed Philadelphia and Cincinnati
moving into the first division. And
now, around August 10. he II right up
ing second place and within reach Of the
Giants.
Stallings double record with the
Yanks and the Braves equals anything
the game has produced.
Late in 1909 John McGraw took the
Giants when they were q total loss In
last place. In 1901 he had them out in
front, developed into q pennant ma
chine.
In 1907 Jennings took charge of the
Tigers. They had finished seventh In
1906. Hughey then won three pennants
In row before he was headed. But
Hughey had good material to start
with He had but little reorganization
to accomplish.
In 1912 Clark Griffith assumed COM
mand Of Washington. q hopeless sev-
enth-placer. He finished second and
nosed out the Mackmen. Last season
he still held his club In second place.
showing that no huke had been accom-
plished.
These were all great achievements.
But we nnd no other record when one
man has taken charge Of two different
tail-end clubs and within two year. has
Iifted them both from the rut into
spikinE distance Of the top.
