only two safe drives were charged
against him.
Lack of experience on the part of
Nef was really responsible for the de-
feat. In the sixth. with the bases full
and two out, Pipp hit grounder to
Nef. Maisel, 1.-THE fastest of the Yam
KEGS. was on first. and in order to pro-
tect the team against a hit he was not
held on first by Gandil Consequently
he had a flying start when Pipps
grounder was hit. yet Neff tried to
force him at second. when he should
have thrown out Pipp at first. Maisel
was safe and. of course, Pieh ran home
with the run which gave the victory to
the Donovan team. This lack of judg-
ment was due to Neff's limited eXpe-
rience. He is really not to be blamed
for even more seasoned players have
made such mistakes.
1t looked like IA sure thing for the
Nationals when Pfeh was announced as
the Yankees pitcher. There were
smiles on all the players of the Wash
lnSton team. for they figured that they
could get enough runs to give Shaw a
victory. But Pieh surprised them and
pitched a mastery game. Not as good
as Shaw, but the one break favored
Pieh and that was enough to let him
win.
Shaw had speed. and five of the locals
went down by the strike-out route. His
control. too. was fairly good. walking
but three during the seven innings he
oficiated. Ayers pitched the last in
ming. during which two errors were
made. both Neff and Foster fumbling,
yet the Yankees could not score.
If the day is bright there is apt to be
big crowd at the Polo Grounds this
will be approximately 10000 out to see
the struggle between Caldwell and
Johnson, while, of course. the fact that
there is to be a double header staged
also VIII have stimulating effect
the attendance.
Williams was sent up to hit for
Shaw in the seventh and he drew
Connolly hit sharp liner to left cen
ter. but High got to the ball after
long. hard sprint and the hopes of the
visitors went slimmering. Milan. the
last man up. hit terrific liner toward
right field. and Pipp jumped into space
and pulled it down with his gloved
hand. The hit would have been good
for at least three bases and perhaps a
home run, in which event the game
would have been tied.
The defeat yesterday dropped the
Nationals back into fifth place and
sion again. The fight for the fourth
berth will be continued today, and the
only way the Nationals can possibly
retain it will be to take both games
from the Donovan team. a feat which
will not be easy, for Bill has his boys
hustling and playing a rather clever
game Of ball. But they will be up
against a pair of pitcher hard to beat,
which may be the cause of a dual vic
tory for the Griffmen.
The Nationals leave here tonight for
Boston, where six games will be
played in three days. and the outcome
of these will mean much so far as the
Nationals standing in the race when II
leaves for the west is concerned

NEW PITCHER FOR YANKEES.

INDIANAPOLIS. July 3.-Only the
formal ratification by the interested

NEW YORK. July S.-Ray Morgan
has been ordered to report at Boston
Sunday. This probably means he Will
be in the games to be played with
the Red Sox. This was arranged after
yesterdays contest. when Neff made a
mistake or two which resulted in the
loss OF the game. Neff. however. mas
shown himself to be Morgans superior
in the few games he has played. Inc
recall of Morgan. incidentally. will not
be beneficial to the discipline of the
Nationals For some unaccountaple
reason the Baltimore infelder seems
able to get away with more things
than any one else, but it was sup
posed that his recent outbreak would
finish him, so far as the Washington
club was concerned.
Incidentally, the recall of Morgan
will not have beneficial effect on
Neff. He will feel that he has been
punished for making Il mistake, and
it may have a discouraging effect on
the youngster. who gives every prom
Use of making ball player of much
more than ordinary ability, one win
the best of habits and possessed OF
intelligence.
There is but one possibility of the
Nationals winning a majority of the
games of the present series 1t now
stands to in favor of the YANKEES,
and this would force the Griffmen to
win both ends of the double-header
which is scheduled for today. Nor is
this impossible. for Griffith will have
Boehling and johnson on the hrlng
line. and this pair ought to be hard
to beat. Caldwell will. of course, be
Iohnson's opponent, but which OF MS
pitchers Donovan would work against
Boehling could only be conjectured.
Jim Shaw pitched the best game of
his career. and yet was not returned a

CHARLEY WHITE Is FAvoR1TE.
Betting Is 6 to S That Chicago Boy
Defeats Welsh at Brighton Tonight.

NEW YORK. July 3-The unusual
circumstance of challenger being a
favorite over a champion will be pre-
sented when Charley White of Chica go
assails Freddie Welsh's lightweight
title in ten-round bout at the Beach
race track tonight
Because of the large amount of Chi
cago money offered at to that White
wins by knock out. the straight odds
are to 5 on White to beat the Eng
lishman.
A string OF six successive knock out
victories for his rival has caused Welsh
to take the bout more seriously than
any other he has fought since he won
the crown from Willie Richie last
summer. His defeat by White in a
no-decision bout at Milwaukee last
winter. when the champion was barely
able to stall through the last round,
has not been forgotten.
Welsh is bent on wiDins out this old
score and has trained assiduously for
two weeks at Centerport, Long Island.
White did most of his preliminary
work at Chicago. but since week
ago has been toiling at Rye Beach
They will enter the ring about 10
o'clock.

NEW YORK, July 3.-What was prob

have lost this season was played yes
terday, when they were beaten l to 0
by the Yankees in game in which
the locals made but single hit. 1t
was a pitchers battle between Shaw
and Pieh. both Of whom were remark
ably effective. The one run which the
Yankees scored was the result of an
error by Nef. a slow hit grounder,
which should have been turned into a
double play. was fumbled by Elm, and
the winning run crossed the plate as a
result.
1t was a remarkable game Of ball in
many respects The hitting on both
sides was light and the two teams had
three safe drives between them, and
one of these was a safe bunt by Milan
The visitors had one great chance to
win the game when, in the seventh.
they had the bases full, with but one
out and Gandil up: but Gandil hit a
short fly to left on which Foster was
doubled at the plate and the side re-
tired. The Yankees made three dou-
BILE plays, all of which were disastrous
to the Griffmen. The first of these
came in the fourth. when Connolly was
hit by a pitched ball to start the in
Ming but Foster forced him at second,
and then Shanks hit into double play.
In the seventh came the best oppor-
tunNty. With one down Foster and
Shanks were both walked and Milan
beat out a bunt down the third base
came Gandirs short fly which resulted
in double play

Marsden handling St. Joseph's a 12-to-O

L Marsden's performance was scarcely
more noteworthy than that of Blundon,
notwithstanding that the former did
not allow a hit. Not one of the st.

Sacred Heart was a comparatively easy
victor over st. Margaret's in the Catholic
church circuit, winning by II to 3. There
was very little difference in the batting OF

Heart made its bingles at more opportune
