The Mackmen have lost their mort
gage on Sunday ball games in the
Capital. Yesterday, winning by a
sseore of to ?, saw them in their final
contest in Washington for the 1919
campaign. Out of sixteen games play
ed between these clubs, the Griffs
have COPIED ten.
Lefty" Zachary made his first start
in the last game Of the Philadelphia
series. He left the pastime with the
score tied UP and allowed Walter
Johnson to lose the decision in the
eighth inning, when, with two gone,
lilly Walker plastered a double to
left and rOmped across on George
Burns hearty drive to right.
Great Day For Rogers.
1t was a great day for Tom Rogers.
Connie Mack evidently showed wis
dom in saving this fellow from the
minors when Jimmy Burke asked for
waivers. Rogers got away to bad
start, two runs coming in in the
first frame, but thereafter he was
tough bird. Twice Joe Leonard
reached third base, but each time he
was left stranded.
Judge tripled to open the clash and
when Foster slapped one at Thomas,
ne should have been dead at the
plate, only Jimmy McAvoy didn't tag
him, that's all. Foster worked his
way around on outs and scored on
'Spud" Murphy's timely biff to right,
That ended the home teams scoring
for the afternoon.
The AS first run came as a result
Of singles by Rogers and Kopp and
a wild heave by Joe Leonard in the
third session. The second was mark
ed up on McAvoy's single past third
base, a sacrifice by Burrus and Rog-
ers' second single.
In6eId in Had shape.
The infieId at Georgia avenue is in
such poor shape that il is interfering
with the smoothness Of the fielding
by all players working upon it. Also.
il is starting many arguments as to
the Legitimacy OF hits going through
the infelders.
Hank Shanks is not an infelder. but
the roUghness Of the ground at short
is making him look like a bloomer.
Hank is making no particular COM
plant, but he must be thinking a lot.
Visiting infielders are kicking
against the texture of the soil in the
Washington diamond. They say it
cakes easily and makes the easiest
chances difficult One way to bring
action would be for the official
scorers to decline to allow any errors
on drives through the infield. a cod
pie OF weeks OF this would bring a
roar from the Fisher building, Chi

According to a cablegram from

of a coal company in that city, and
Benton V. johnson, a real estate man
Of Detroit, Mich. both Y. N. G. A..
workers in France, have been dec0rat-
ed with the croix de guerre. General
Petain himself presented them. Their
decorations increased to five the num-
Der Of Y. NJ. c. A. workers receiving
the croix de guerre.
Their citations, which were given to
them at general headquarters, COM
mended the two for their work under
shell fire with the Twenty-sixth divl-
sion, and especially mentioned their
zeal and devotion In carrying aid to
the wounded under a very violent
bombardment."
Both men have followed their divi-
sion, which has been In the thickest
of the fighting, to several fronts. They
worked as stretcher bearers in the
Toul sector, at Chateau Thierry and in
the Argonne woods. Their job was to
carry the wounded through the
trenches, often several hundred yards,
until it was possible to leave the
trench for the road, where they put
them on stretchers and carried them
under fire to the dressing station.
While engaged in this work last
summer Mr.. Johnson was wounded by
shell fragments and forced to spend
two weeks In the hospital. He re-
ceived his former citation for his
services at this time.
