Clash With Browns.
oriffmen Will Present Varied
Lineup Against Rickey's
Crew From This Out.
By LOUIS A. BOUCHER.

Joe Judge and Kid Jameson, the
Buffalo players, will report here
Monday next, and, if they arrive
in time, will play against St. Louis
in the final game ol the series be-
tween the Griffmen and the
Brownies. Manager Griffith heard
today from Patsy Donovan, the
Buffalo leader, that he would not
be able to let his two stars leave
the team until the International
League race had been completed. It
comes to an end tomorrow. Buffalo,
by playing an eleven-inning tie, 3
to 8, with Providence yesterday,
held its small margin over the
Clamdiggers. If Buffalo wins to-
days doubleheader, championship
honors will go with the victory. If
the teams break even, tomorrow's
game will decide the pennant.
George Dumont. the North Dakota
hurler. who broke In with such a crash
against the Indians. is down to twirl
tomorrow's contest against the Mound
City outfit. He made a good impression
upon the Old Fox In his debut. and will
be given plenty OF chance to show his
caliber before the big show ends.
Just what his lineup against The
Brownies will be from now on, Manager
Griffith says he does not know. He
means to have Moeller In left and
Acosta in right. but he doesn't know
whether to have Shanks at third and
Foster at second. or Foster at second
and Shanks at third. However, he has
about decided not to use Carl Sawyer
at second when the White Sox get here
He will have his most experienced line
up tackle the three teams now ahead Of
the Grifrmen.

this course. he sent Clarence Sims to
the mound to open the ball. Clarence
halls from, Charleston in the Ohio State
League. Clarence went insane in the
second. AMI Earl Hamilton. once lead
ing f1incer in this league, came into
sight to remain until the seventh.
Beginning the seventh. Allen Soth-
oror, grabbed up from Wichita in the
Western League. appeared on the
mound. Allen had a lot Of stun, but
they kept moving the plate around on
him and he could not detect It. So
Allen disappeared with the arrival of
Rtppy Williams at the dish. Tim Nc
C9be. huge lad from Decatur, In the
Tllree-Eye League, following him. Tim
had something. Tim isn't such a bad
twirler.
The small crowd found little over
which to enthuse. 1t was simply an ex-
hibition of f1uke hitting. fine pitching,
and luck for the Griffs, with punk
pitching. leaky fielding. and utter help
lessness on the part Of the Brownies.
Sims walked Gandil and Acosta in the
second and then went away from that
place. Hamilton wildpitchcd Gandil
over. ..-
Hits. mostly f,ukes, by Foster, Milan,
Gandil. Williams, and Mcbride. sent
two runs over IN the sixth and drove
Hamilton to the clubhouse.
