IL proved tough going for the RittS-
burgh stogie along about the fifth
inning. and Earl Yingling. OF "hold-
OUT and American Association fame.
broke in with results that he hung
up his initial victory of the season.
Earl owes his first victory to the
stick work of Milan. Lavan. Judge.
Ainsmith and Morgan. as this conn
bination either crashed them out in
the pinch or paved the way for the
Nationals to register at the counting
block.
1t was the Tennessee flyers pinch
punch in the first half of the ninth
that batted across the two taIlies
which spelt defeat for the Yankees.
while Judge. Morgan. Ainsmith and
Lavan delivered in the jams Of the
pinch stuff in the early going.
'fhe Nationals went to Caldwell in
the opening inning after one was
DOWN I.avan singled and stole sec
ond, but his efforts went all for
naught, as Milan and Shanks failed
to come through with the punch.
In the second. after Judge had
popped out. Morgan and Foster hit
safely. but this chance was passed
up when Aipsmith was doubled into
a two-ply killing on the hit and run.
Frank Schultz was called upon in
the third as "A pinch hitter. hut he
famed the air for his initial time In
the American League.
The .Griffmen were not to be halted
as three blows on the bats of Shot
ton, L1van and Milan netted the first
counter and 1t was not until the sixth
that the real fireworks started that
paced the crew from President Will
sons home in the runnings. Shanks,
Judge and Morgan followed with base
blows to open the way for the Ma
tionsl trio Of counters in this inning.
Foster popped out, but Eddie Ain
smith proved the guy with the WALTON
rs he busted through a two-base cIout
that scored this trio of base runners.
Charity. as a jam hitter, and Shottou
failed to add to the Nationals total.
Judges two-base whack. sacrifice
hit by Morgan. and Fosters long sac
rifice fly to Miller put the Nationals
ahead in the eighth. but it was only
short lived, as the Yankees came from
behind and forced Grifrs tribe to- 20
the limit in the final.
A scratch single by Shotton started
the rally IN the last. Lavan followed
by hitting the right field stands for
two bases and Milan settled the issue
Tor good and all when he crashed
through his two-bagger that scored
the former Brownies.
The Yankees put two over in the
nrst BY meeting the delivery of Har-
Der and again went to work ON Shaw
In the third when they pushed across
another. Bakers home run into the
r1ght Held stand in the fifth proved
snaWs undoing and Earl Yingling

WHY THE SUGAR SITUATION
Is ACUTE IN AMERICA

Washington, Aug. l3.--America. which
wheat in the closing crop year, where
less than 2o,000,00o bushels surplus ap-
peared, is called upon now to exercise
like virtue with sugar.
The burden of maintaining allied
supplies falls on our resources.
No sugar comes from Central Eu-
rope, none from Java; from Hawaii
and West Indies less than usual.
French sugar territory is overrun
by German armies: French sugar mills
are taken and destroyed.
Submarine sinkings and losses by
battle have cost us great stores: labor
shortage makes inroads on production.
For England the allowance is two
pounds of sugar a month: for France
one pound; for italy. one pound. Amer
lea seeks to share equally with all who
sit at the common table. Joined in the
common defense.

and at the same time continue their

wright yesterday received a. telegram
from Adjutant General Mccain saying
that Richmond college had satisfied
the conditions prescribed by the war
department knd that steps were be-
ing taken to establish at once unit

The telegram says: AN officer OF
the United States army will be detail
ed and will. upon arrival, proceed with
the organization Of your unit. Rifles.
uniforms. overcoats and other equip
ment will be supplied at an early
date"
The war department is doing every
thing the college or the students could
reasonably ask to enable students,
whether OF draft age or not. to con-
tinue their college studies, Students
who are eighteen years OF age will
enlist in the students army training
corps upon their matriculation in COL
lege. They will then be in the mill
tary service of the United States and
will wear the regular army uniform,
They will be furnished free Of charge

More eggs were received at New
York during the nrst half of this year
than during the nrrt six months OF
any previous year since 1911. From
January to July 4. 1918. the receipts
of eggs at New York amounted to
s.112.305 cases. An average increase Of
sn.9is cases over the nrst six months
of the seven preceding years. Taking
New York receipts as an indication Of
the production throughout the United
States, this shows that the campaign
started last fall by poultry specialists
OF the United States department OF
agriculture is already bearing fruit. n
the advice given in this campaign ID
widely followed. say the department
specialists, there should be a very con-
siderable increase In the stock Of lay
ing hens in the country next winter.
There should also be very marked In
crease in the receipts Of fresh eggs at
the leading markets in January and
February. This. with the better re-
suits which II 10 believed will be Sc
cured by this years experience In
keeping poultry. probably win increase
production so that the requirements
OF the country for eggs and poultry in
1919 will be met.
