Griffith is going to depend on young Harry
Harper, the sensational southpaw. Crowell
has been suffering with heavy cold which
has kept him off the mound more than a
week, but he reported In good trim on
Thursday and is ready to take his regu-
lar turn on the mound.
Local fans are anxious TO see Harper
who is said TO have improved wonder
fully. This youngster has remarkable
natural pitching ability, but until this sea-
son could not locate the plate, which made
his terrific speed and sharp breaking
curve ball Of little value He has shown
splendid form to date, and IL he con-
tinues at his present clip the Senator's
pennant chances are greatly improved,
If Harper has at last gained control,

youthful southpaw and the wonderful
Johnson. Washington may upset the dope.
If the other American League pitching

hits. Frost was on the other end and
