Congress of S6,000,000 less than the de-
partment's estimate of its own needs
and of So, 1885, 900 under what the de-
partment is now using, not only precludes
any expansion by the department in its
activities, but actually curtails work going

the new rules for tampering with the
ball. when the pitcher retired In the
fifth. Dineen had warned him about
rubbing the ball on his uniform. but
his yanking was directed by Manager
Barrow solely on the grounds of Wild
ness and ineffectiveness.
Mike Menosky contributed the fea-
ture play of the matinee. with a for
ward running one-hand stab of liner
from Milans bat in the third. Mike
barely was able to reach the ball, and
acrobatics were required for him to
retain a clutch on it after turning a
side somersault Miguel has been go
ing like house afire for the Hubmen
this spring, but may be on the shelf
for some time now az a result of a
twisted ankle received in sliding into

Eddie Foster ran counter to all prec-
edent in the fourth when he ham
mered double to left. after being
presented with a testimonial from
admiring friends in the form of a
bouquet Of flowers. Diamond idols
usually strike out at such junctures.
The Vice President tossed out two
first balls" His initial effort was
highly successful. the ball being
caught by Umpire Dineen. although it
was high and on the outside" but
Mr.. Marshall went through the motions
again to accommodate some struggling
cameramen who were otherwise en-
gagged when the original throw was
made.
Clark Griffith was given a fine ova-
tion by the crowd just after the initial
ceremonies. Introduced" by a mega
phone man of good Intentions. but a
rather weak voice. the pilot was ac-
corded three cheers and the band piped
up that Hail. Hail." tune.
All but small patch of seats in the
extreme corner of the left-feld pavilion
was occupied and the crowd overfiowed
onto the field in front of the flag
bedraped stands, but the bleachers were
less than half filled. Fans nowadays
don't fancy viewing a ball game from
afar.
1t is probable Harry Courtney will
be sent against the Sox in the second
contest this afternoon, although Shaw
may be tried again. Griff plans to

from the bureau of engraving and

sented at the ball park in recent years.
Alexandria sent a large delegation,

great improvement over the old

Al Schacht's showing. despite the
fact that he was yanked while under
fire. was gratifying considering that he
had had only two days rest after
hurting that shutout against the
Mackmen in Philadelphia Monday.
Schacht demonstrated he is one Of the
best fielding pitchers in the game by
the manner in which he hoped around
