mour Dobie. who will have charge of
the Naval Academy football team

has a difficult task before him IN
building up a backfield, every regular

been lost to him this season. IT will

regular linemen who graduated are;

particularly on account of his punt

Eternal Captures Brooklyn Handicap Gris Swan,p Sox
Red Sox Hurlers Are
Hammered By Nationals
Ghfmen Capture Firs
Of Series from Boston
By l2-3 Count.

Boston. Mass. June 23.-The Wash
ingtons and Red Sox clashed at Fen
way Park this afternoon in the FIRST
of their four games in three days
series. with Harrer twiriing for the
visitors and Carl Mays for the home
team The score was IL to for the
visitors. 1t proved to be the batting
fest OF the season for the home
grounds, with the Senators welding
the willow like fiends. driving first
Caldwell and then Mays from the
box. and then landing on Dumont,
who finished the game. They touch
ed up the Red Sox fingers for eight
cen hits. not far from a record In
itself.
All but three of the visitors-Judge,
Murphy and Menosky-connected safe
ly. and the oversight of these three
was more than made UP by the
others Charity was the bright par
ticular star, hitting out no less than
two home runs, one over the lef,
neld fence. the other to the center
neld hagpole, two doubles and a sim
gle. total of thirteen bases. Milan
was a close second. while Harper
and Foster were altogether too busy
with their bats for the comfort /ot
the Red Sox.
Harper was touched for but five
hits and had the distinction OF
striking out the great Babe Ruth
twice. whereupon Barrow yanked
Ruth out of the game and sent
Gamer to left field in his place. He
gave six passes. had two wild
pitches and struck out seven.
But four Of the Red Sox could
connect with Harper's delivery

Mclnnis and Barry once each, Nc
1nnis once, however, was for a
homer. making three for the gann
1t travelled clear to the fagpole in
center field. Harry Hooper. lead of
man for the Red Sox. although four
times up could not scare UP so much
as a single. Four errors for the
Barrowmen against one for Wash
ington counted somewhat in the de-
feat. although with the Nationals
batting as they were today. nothing
could have STAYED OF Waterloo.
Gharrity's first homer came in the
fourth of Carl Mays. Strunk and
Hooper foozled their relay in at
tempting to hold the catcher to
three bases. His second came in the
ninth off Dumont. who was slammed
as few Red Sox pitchers have been
slammed. 1t went over the left field
fence with yards to spare. an ex-
ceptional hit. McInnis' Offering
came in the second. Nobody was
on base on either occasion. Three
home runs in one game establishes
a record for Fenway Park The
score.

led. BARRoWS IS
IN BAD AGAIN
Pilot Of Red Hosed Tribe
Has Fans and Players
Kicking Against Him.

Boston. Mass. June 23.--Eddie
Barrows 10 in bad. The pilot of the
Red Sox has public opinion against
him. not because of the poor show
ing of the Red Hosed tribe in the
race this season but because he
came out openly and remarked that
he was willing to trade any member
in his lineup excepting Babe Ruth.
1t was general comment at the
field that his talk OF trading Harry
Hooper had got under the hide of
the players.
They certainly acted as though
they were battling for a lost cause.
There was no snap in their work.
They played as though they had ne
interest in the game. much less a
desire to win. Hooper is one of the
most popular players ON the team
and the prospect OF his being traded
is not taken kindly either by the
players or the fans. His own play
ing today seemed to indicate he had
lost interest in the welfare OF the
team.

OF DR.. KRUGER
Doctors to Testify on Truth of
Statement That Babes Have
Been Thrown Away.

AS a result Of a statement alleged
to have been made by DR.. F. w.
Kruger, following the death of Infant
John Smith, that physicians have al
lowed deformed children to die after
their birth, the Wayne county grand
jury will probably make an investiga-
tion of the claim.
At the time of his arrest. DR.. krueg-
er said that during the time that he
was county health officer, he had Oft
en- advised physicians Of the county
to follow similar course to that used
by him in connection with the Smith
case. This is claimed by other phys.
icians to be untrue.
Doctors to Be Called.
Owing to the absence OF Judge
Bond, who is trying a case in the
Fayette county court Wednesday, the
grand jury adjourned Tuesday even
ing, until Thursday afternoon at 1
o'clock Several doctors will prob
ably be called.
The grand jury will probably make
a report on the Krueger case Thurs
day afternoon. Following its report
on the Kruger case, the jury will
make an inspection Of county build
ings and institutions, and adjourn, as
no other cases have been presented
for investigation.
