NATIONALS BLANKED
BY VETERAN PLANK
Allows Six Scattered Hits and
Walks Four, But Yields
No Runs.
JOHNSON VICTIM OF POOR
SUPPORT AND FLUKE HITS
Locals Opportunities Killed by
Three Double Plays, Two of
Which Plank Starts.

Eddie Plank has long experience as
a pitcher and it was this qualification
which made IT possible for him to shut
out the Griffmen yesterday by score
of 3 to 0.
Six hits were made off Plank's deliv-
cry and he walked four. but whenever
he was threatened he seemed to be
BILE to rise to the emergency and dis
pose of the succeeding batters with
comparative ease.
There never was a stage when the
Griffmen had a chance. They played
a rather loose game in the field and
the Browns found Johnson no puzzle
and also had luck enough to get a
number of scratch hits by dropping the
ball between the in and out fields
where they could not be handled by
the players in either.
Seven errors We're charged against
the Griffmen, and most of these cut "A
ran up.
In the third inning, for instance
Plank was walked. He was forced by
Shotton and then Johnson threw past
Williams in an effort to catch Shotton
and the latter went to third. Shotton
set out to steal home and was safe
when Ainsmith twice dropped the ball
johnson was safe on Williams failure
to stop his grounder. Ainsmith's throw
to catch johnson stealing went to
center field and Johnson pulled up at
third. Miller then came through with
a Texas Lacquer over shortfield and
johnson trotted home
This brought the Browns score up
to three. for in the second inning when
Sisler hit safely he stole second and
BARRIERS error on Lavan's fly sent him
/ home.
In the sixth four hits and sacrifice
ny, two of the hits being pop-ups over
the infield, Melted the Browns their
hnal runs. Miller singled and Sisler
followed suit. sending Miller to third.
\ sacrifice fly scored Miller and then
Marsan rolled one to left and Sisler
scored.
Two double plays. in which Plank
figured as the starter played havoc
with the Griffmen's chances in the
first and second innings. With one
down Foster singled and then Milan
hit to Plank. who threw to Lavan, and
a double play resulted, for Lavan's
throw beat Milan TO first.
Williams walked in the second and
Barber hit to Plank. and again the
with Lavan as pivot Johnson also
walked in this inning, but Mcbride
popped up to Sisler.
With one out in the fourth, Milan
and Williams hit safely. Barber. how
ever, fell a victim to Planks Judgment
and struck out, while johnson sent a
long fly to left.
In the fifth Sawyer singled with one
out and stole second, but Ainsmith
famed and Moeller was out on a
groundcr to short
In the seventh there was another
chance for the locals. Shanks. hitting
for Barber, walked. Johnson. however,
was famed and then Mcbride singled.
Sawyer went out on fly to left and
Henry batting for Ainsmith, popped
up to Pratt. The score:

cultural interests on the islands VIII
