Nationals Big Pitcher Is Wait
ing for Warm Weather Be-
fore Making a Start.
OTHER SPORTING GOSSIP
Ruth and Harper, Southpaws, Slated
to Oppose Each Other This
Afternoon.
BY WILLIAM FEET.

Many OF the fans are wondering why
Jim Shaw does not take his regular turn
on the rubber for the Nationals.
Several letters to the writer and nu-
merous inquiries by Capital business men
have reached this office with requests for
/ Information about the big pitcher.
There is nothing the matter with Jim
Shaw except that Manager Griffith is
waiting for warm weather to set in be-
fore starting the big boy.
Physically Shaw is as good as he ever
was in his life and eats three big meals
day. In Charlottesville the pitcher
looked to be In great shape and 1t was
figured that he would be able to take
his turn in the box when the season
opened.
The cold, rainy spell shortly after the
Nationals arrived home from the train
ing camp seemed to set Shaw back more
than any OF the other pitchers, and 1t
will not be until we enjoy a few warm
days such as the weather man handed
out yesterday that Shaw will be started
in a championship game.
Today's game at National Park be-
tween the Griffmen and Red SoX will
more than likely resolve itself into a
pitchers battle between Southpaws Ruth
and Harper.
Manager Carrigan stated last night
probably Ruth
Harper beat the Red Sox in Boston on
April IS by to ?, with Ernie Shore as
his opponent, allowing them but five hits.
He is confident that he can repeat the
trick this afternoon.
Manager Griffith has his heart set on
cleaning up the series against the Bos-
ton Red Sox and believes he can do It,
for the world champions are not hitting
/ the ball right now as they will later, al
though their pitchers, contrary to reports
of sore arms, look to be in fine condition.
Secretary Eddie Riley, Of the Red Sox.
vouchsafed the Information that the
Boston club drew good-sized crowds in
Philadelphia last week during the series
against the Athletics.
This is good news for the Nationals il
the crowds continue when the GriTmen
visit the Quaker City next Thursday, for
last year the local club hardly raked in
enough coin at Shibe Park to pay hotel
bills.
Speaking OF attendance figures, It might
also be well TO note that the Grffrmen
are liable to play before big crowds in
two Western cities this season which
last year drew hardly more than a few
hundred fans at each game, the cities
referred to being Cleveland and st. Louis,
Tor the Cleveland fans are wildly en-
thusiastic over Lee Fohls Indians, while
down in st. Louis the Mound City bugs
believe there is nobody like Fielder
Jones
In both St. Louis and Cleveland the
games played this spring have drawn
big crowds.
Ray Morgan is gaining new friends
each day by his fine work with the Ma
tionals. Morgan is not hitting as he
will a little later in the season, but his
fielding is UP to par. and he Is showing
good speed on the bases.
