BY ERNEST POLLARD.
t's the same, sad story.

| Yesterday brought forth two more
games in the lost column. The Vir>
lginians have been Inundated so many
times recently by the opposing ag-
gregations local baseball enthusiasts
have stopped asking who won. but are
now merely inquirtng as to the score.
Unless the vtrginians chase the old
ink that has been lowering over the
local camp since the boys took their
departure two weeks ago. they are
destined to root the Jersey City
Shelters out OF the cellar position.
Yesterday the locals dropped into
seventh place and only few games
separate them from the bottom Of
the ladder. The Skeeters are playin&
fairly good ball at the present time
and the Virginians will have to take
Ia brace to keep out of the dungeon.
Just what the matter is with the
Richmond team Is not known. Man
lager Dunn certainly has good team
are not winning is a hard matter to
explain. II the Richmond boys desire
to finish in nrst division, or even out
OF the bottom position. they will have
to start playing baseball. At one time
lit looked as II the boys were going
TO have a walkaway with the gonfalon.
but the fans have, day by day, watched
their chances OF winning the much
coveted bunting fade-
The virginians seem to be hittins
the ball, but the bingles are not com
ing when they are most needed
Those timely blows are the ones that
count. and unless they are forthcom-
inr hall games can't be won. Then
again the virginians have by no means
been getting the best OF pitching since
they left horne. When pitcher 10
being hit hard II makes the other play
ers on the team look like monkeys and
they can't be expected to exhibit their
best brand OF ball.

Whitlock steadfastly refused to dis
cuss the Cayell case or the fact that
some German papers suggested that
the Belgian government seek his re-
call because OF the report made TO
Ambaesador Page regarding the exc
cution OF the British nurse. All ques-
tons pertaining to his official duties
went unanswered.
He said he had not heard he had
been suggested as possible vice
president nominee on the democratic
ticket and refused 10 discuss the ques-
ton. He also declined TO comment on
reports riSat he might be sroomed as
a senatorial or gubernatorial candf-

Pristina's occupation by Germans and
BulSars.
The two towns are twenty miles
apart, Mitrovitza at the northwest
and Pristina at the southeast end Of
the kossovo pIateau-the famous
Biaekbird plain. On this plain, stretch
ing from one town to the other, the
Serbs are entrenched.
All the way across central Serbia,
sixty miles from Nish to their pres
ent position, the Serbs have fought
every step Of the way. The invad ers'
advance was slow, in the face Of this
desperate resistance and on account
Of the difficulties Of the country, but
1t has been steady.
Whether they have come up with
