The slaughter of the Griffmen cannot
be charged to AL Schacht. but credit
must be given to Davis for pitching a
classy game of ball. Schacht went in
with the bases crowded and Sisler up
and the way George has been FASTING
the pill, AIS chances of surviving were
almost nil. Sisters double drove in
two runs which. naturally. unnerved
Schacht, and the slaughter followed.
Schacht had nothing but a glove and a
prayer. There is no intention OF de-
Tending his work, but Shaw was the
principal offender in getting himself in
q hole and leaving an almost insur-
mountable obstacle to overcome.
Grin's staff Of pitchers is not the
poorest in the American League by a
jugfull. but the quicker he realizes that
slight dependence can be placed on
either Shaw or Schacht. the sooner the
club will settle down into a winning
streak
Game Easily Described.
A description of the Brownies vic
tory can best be told in few words.
Two doubles and two singles with
O'Neilrs error. accounted for six runs
in the third.
In the fourth. Sisters home run

another.
Seven runs went up for the Brownies

bases, a pass and O'Neilrs second
error.
Sisters fourth hit. a single: Schacht's
error and Williams single to right.

run in the seventh inning.
The Nationals lone tally was scored
in the ninth inning. the result of
Milan's double against the right field
fence, Rice's out and Roth's timely
single to left
The Griffmen threatened to score in
the fourth inning. when they collect
ed three singles with two out. but
Charity failed to come through with
q hit with the bases loaded. In the
other innings. young Davis held them
safely all the way.
Eric Erickson will serve them up
for the Griffmen today for the final
battle OF the series with the Browns.
and Weilmann will be on the mound
against him.
O'NeiIl Again Spiked.
In putting out Williams at second
in the seventh inning. Jimmy ONeill
was spiked on the hand just below
where he was cut in the same man

OF the game. Shannon went to short
for the Browns last turn at the bat.
mons injured foot has healed nicely.
he still Is troubled with a sore arm
and hardly is fit to work.
Manager Griffith and President
ORourke of the Omaha club held a
long conference yesterday. but with
out result. BY the underground route
il is learned that Pitcher Olson. re-
Gently with Cornell, has been ordered
to report to the Nationals in Chicago
tomorrow. but. instead of wearing a
Washington uniform. will keep on
moving and land with O'Rourke's
club. Schacht would probably have
been turned over to ORourke, but
the latter saw yesterdays merry-go-
round and wouldn't have him now as
q gift
Jack Calvo took 81 away from Ed
die Charity in a little betting trans
action before the slaughter started
yesterday. Several members Of the
Nationals had been discussing long
throwing and Calvo asserted he could
throw a ball from the home plate over
the right field bleachers in the
BrovnS park.
The wager followed. Calvo took a
