The first arrival was to the loft of

miles an hour. Less than two minutes
separated the first six lofts. The fol-

Gandil Still Leading Fielder.

Chick Gandil continues to be the
leader in fielding. having accepted in
twenty-four games 223 put-outs. assisted
twenty times and made not the semblance
Of q miscue. Some OF his stops Of wide
thrown balls surely have been hair-rais-
ers, especially the one Saturday. when he
stopped a ide throw from Johnson with
his gloved hand and made the put-out,
when nobody expected him to reach it.
There is no first baseman In the league
playing better game than Gandil. Nc
Bride Is playing great game at short.
Some OF his stops and throws border on
the sensational. and there is not a short
stop in the league that has a better
throwing arm than he. Milan, Shanks
and Moeller are improving in their field
ing. The team during the week had the

fifth is to be congratulated that he had so
capable a backstop as Alva Williams to
fall back on to fill the vacancy, for in
the games in which he caught Shaw
and Johnson he proved that he is
capable Of holding either of their deliv-
cries, and 1t looks as though he had re-
gained the use Of his throwing arm. for
his pegs to second were true and accu-
rate and got his man every time. The
Nationals meet Cleveland and st. Louis
during the week. and they will have to
play their best to come out winner. as
both teams are playing good ball, and st.
Louis is known as a record buster, as the
Nationals can attest on several occasions.

Milan Leading Batsman-

Milan. the Tennessee flyer. has
wrested the batting honors from
Third Baseman Foster during the
week, and In the six games played he
has been at bat twenty-one times
and made nine base hits. which gives
him the handsome percentage of 1923.
and for the season he has been at
bat ninety-six times and made thirty
one hits. including three doubles. two
triples and a home run, total of
forty-one bases and a batting per-
centage of 1923. a gain of $3.50 points.
He not only leads the team in total
bases. but he took q squirt on the base
paths during the week and annexed
seven purloined sacks to his belt. Civ
ing him total of ten for the season.
which brings him pretty near the lead
in the league. He Is fielding in first
class style and has made several SEN
sational catches. Shanks has proved
himself to be one of the best men to
be at the bat when there are men on
bases and hit Is needed. as there is
no doubt that he has driven in more
rms than any player on the team.
Gandil and Morgan have both i'm
proved In their stick work. and there
will be moro games won when they
get to batting as they are capable Of
doing. Foster has fallen off some
what, but is yet above the 300 mark.
