no boosting. and any knock or roast

MORNING GAME.

Jim Shaw uncorked one of his wild
streaks and failed to survive the OPEN
ing chapter, five runs counted before
Gallia could be rushed to the front. and
with this commanding lead the Yankees
had little trouble winning the morning
game. II to 4.
The tough part Of that first inning
nightmare was that two were out and
nobody had scored. when Shaw took his
flight into the clouds. and the reason he
was allowed to remain on the rubber so
long was because almost every succeed
ing batter was in hole with two strikes
when a walk invariably followed.
Slim Caldwell, for the Yanks. was also
batted freely. but his support was gilt
edged, while the Nationals played miser-
able ball afield.
griffith used fifteen men. including a
trio OF pinch hitters and four slabmen.
Caldwell was bumped hard in the
fourth, when three hits with a base on
balls netted three runs. and also put
