GRIFFS GRAB PAIR
FROM FOHL'S LADS
BY ED BANG.

CLEVELAND, July 13.-The Griff-
men have grabbed of two games
from the Indians and have both john
son and Harper yet to climb the hill.
That's what Lee Foil got for showing
a double-header up to the first day Of
the series here yesterday. The bar
gain attraction did bring out a huge
crowd, but it made the Washington
ions mad as hatters. They whaled
the Indians 6 to 3 and 3 to 8.
1t wasn't such fine baseball, come
to think OF it. from any angle. Bill
Wamby started the Griffmen of on
a wild frame in the first game, four
runs counting before the visitors
could be retired. After that the In
dams never had a chance.
The second game was a terrific bat
ting bee, especially by the Griffs. Ed
die Foster grabbed of four safeties
for himself, while several Of his team
mates nailed a pair apiece.
Clark Griffith sent Eric Erickson
after the first game. He lacked con-
troll. but luck was with him and he
sauntered over a winner for the sec
ond time since donning a Washington
uniform. Elmer Myers didn't last
long in that first game. Enzmann
succeeding him, only to be followed
by Bill Phillips.
Jim Shaw, fast becoming a terror
for the Griffs, twirled the second con-
test. He started off with a comfort
able lead, and the Indians were not
able to do much with him. On the
other hand, Guy Morton didn't last in
the hot sun, fading aaway to let
Phillips and Uhle take up the burden.

BAN JOHNSON SAYS
CROWDS BACK GAME

DETROIT, July 15.-Ban Johnson,
a day or so to look over conditions,
says the game was never so flourish
ing.
He declared that already the total
attendance throughout the league
was greater than in 1916 at this time
of the year, and that there was every
indication that the figures of 1918.
basebalrs high water year, would be
eclipsed.
Baseball has come back complete
ly." said Big Ban. Throughout the
entire circuit the crowds have sup
ported the sport in most loyal style.
and the good old game is on the road
to even greater heights than it reach
ed in the days before the world war
In a statement which sent out today
to the various club owners l said that
the attendance figures were already
ahead of those at a corresponding
time in 1916, which was the second
greatest year in American League
baseball.
81 believe that before the season Is
over we will surpass the mark estab-
lished in 1913, which was the greatest
baseball year in the history of the
American League. The return Of the
fans is a complete yindication of the
greatest outdoor game in the world.
We closed at the order of Uncle Sam
last year; we are playing to the
largest crowds at the order of the
baseball enthusiasts. The public was
our jury. They have declared this
season whether or not baseball is
wanted.
1.-The season is not only successful
from a financial viewpoint, but from
the competitive side as well. The first
five clubs are distinctly in the fight
A slump by any of the leaders. a win
ming streak by either the Tigers or
the Browns, and we would have De-
troit or st. Louis treading on the
heels of the others. Baseball may
look for a stirring time in the Ameri-
can League fight this year; it is an
open night in which the breaks of the
game may decide the outcome"

SUBURBAN LEAGUE
RACE IS TIGHTER

Suburban League tennis teams are
out for first honors with a vengeance,
and the race is Tightening up each
week. Euclid started with a rush, but
has had its lead cut down until Hol-
mead, Racquet and Argyle have a
chance to come through before the
end Of the season.
Yesterday Argyle took quite a fall
out of the Euclid players. Stellwagen
and Spence walloped the leading Eu-
cid men, Alexander and Dudley, in
singles, and then proceeded to take
five out Of the seven engagements.
The Racquet players walked through
and around the Bureau OF Standards
men in grabbing off all seven matches
In the Holmead- Home engagement,
Holmead took five out Of seven
matches. Holmead failed to catch up
on Euclid, but Argyle and Racquet
climbed right up to within striking
distance OF the leading clubs.
Here is the way the race stands at
