CLEVELAND, Aug. ED Matte
son. Nick Altrock's partner in comic
crimes these days, is booked to start
on the hill today for the Griffmen
against the Indians. Guy Morton or
Jim Bagby will be Lee Fohrs seIec-
tion.
Three games are to be played on
this visit here and, with both teams
in the shortened pennant race, they
are sure to put up stiff fights for the
honors. The Indians are but three
and a half games behind the Red Sox,
while the Griffs are but two games
in the rear OF the FohlIes-
II think We have a chance to win
the pennant." explained Manager
Griffith today, because we finish bet
ter than either the Indians or the
Red Sox. Five and a half games is
some margin to overcome in four
weeks, but 1 think we can do it.
We're willing to try it, anyway"

NEALE AND LEE MAGE
ENJOY FRIENDLY BOUT

NEW YORK, Aug. ct must have
been pretty hot yesterday in Brook
lyn. 1t went to the heads of Greasy
Neale and Lee Magee, two of the Gin
cinnati players, and they staged a
friendly bout for the edifcation of
the fans who came early.
Magee threw a ball for Neale to
chase in the sun out in left field. Be-
coming enraged, NeaIe ran in to the
bench and clinched with Magee, who
dropped him with left hook.
Quickly rallying, Neale dropped Ma
gee with a right swing to the jaw
and then deliberately struck him as
he lay PROSTATE.
Other Cincinnati players separated
the two heat manIacs and when the
game began both were found in the
lineup.
This is the second fight in which
Neale has figured this season. He
assaulted Bill Killifer, the Cubs
catcher, about a month ago in Chi
cago.

tion.
The defeat Of the 6O4th Engineers,

The Washington times., 1918-08-06

There has been considerable ac-
tivity in and around the War Depart
ment on other than direct war work,
as those in charge say they will have
a large gathering. Many notables are
expected to see the teams in action.
Added interest is lent by the fact
that the navy yard jazz band will
furnish music for the occasion. Re-
cent additions to the band have
brought it up to a state of perfection
uneQualed by any other band in this
section, 1t is maintained
Wives and daughters of ranking
officers in the service, a gathering Of
foreign officers and others here on
war work will be on hand for the
game tomorrow. Associated with
Mrs. Baker are Mrs. William Gorgas,
Mrs. L w. Littel, and Miss E. S.
Bliss.
During the summer the Finance and
Accounts team has been playing in
the Departmental League. Jack
O'Brien, captain Of the. team, has
been the moving spirit in the organ
ization. He has succeeded in getting
the league under way and has offered
opposition to all teams in the circuit
with the result that the F. and A
team is accounted one OF the strong
est baseball teams playing in Poto-
mac Park.
The Navy Yard Marines have
played several frst-class games this
season. Work in athletics at the
navy yard has been confined inside
the yard to a great extent 1t is
known that several hrst-class play
ers are enrolled with the Marines,
who have been out after other teams
with a will this season.
Tickets have been literally spread
through the War Department A
large crowd is expected to be on
hand. There Wilt be a first-class
band. A good game is promised. 1t
will start at 5:15 o'clock and Will be
played at the American League Park.

rhnt.n Hard Blow.

Big leaguers have been struck 4
hard blow. and by none other than
their lii oil playmate that was, Ed
ReuIbach, former pitcher with the
Cubs and Braves and one Of the main
mechanics in the late Baseball Play
ers' Fraternity. In his capacity as
president of the shipyards' Baseball
League of the New York District.
ReuIbach has ruled that no team in
the circuit shall have more than
two major leaguers in its lineup for
the remainder OF the season.
To have this rule adopted Just
when the heroic major leaguers were
about ready to desert the ship and
enter the shipyard shows what a
tough world this Is getting to be.

Your Greatest Asset

is your health. Without il no success
in any line is possible. Modern bust
ness and industrial life tends to rap
idly break down the bodily powers Of
resistance against the inroads of d.
sease and our manner of life tend to
derange the organs of digestion.
These ailments at first are trifling
and the person thinks them of small
consequence; but to allow them to
run on nearly always results in per-
manent or serious injury to the con-
stitution. When the trouble is small
is the proper time to correct it. Re-
Gently there has been placed on the
market a preparation called Jays
Pepsotone which is unequaled in the
treatment and correcting of stomach
and liver troubles. Often just a
single tablet will suffice to bring you
back to normal and when the trouble
is of long standing a short course
as needed usually brings immediate
and lasting benefit. All druggists
sell it. 1t contains no habit forming
