ON THE SIDE LINES

ST. LOUIS. June l6.--The merciful
defeat OF the White Sox at the hands
of the Mackmen. who staged great
finish in Chicago, saved the Nationals
from sliding into sixth place. They
still hold a margin of half a game
on the Gleasonites. and are only
three games better off than the last
place Red Sox.
BriIlhcart did fairly well in the
only inning he officiated. He started
by walking his pitching opponent.
but, due to sensational bit of work
by Shanks and a double play engi-
necred by his support. only three
Browns faced him.
in the fourth. when, with Ellerbe on
first by virtue of safety, Davis
lined to the box. Mogrldge deliber-
ately muffed the drive. then picked
up the ball and tossed to the initial
sack where Harris first tagged Ell
lerbe and then stepped on the base
to double up the batsman. Fohl
and company protested vigorously.
but m vain.
Milan demonstrated in the second
that there is nothing wrong with his
wing by clutching Ellerbe's liner and
doubling SEVERED off second with a
long and perfect peg to Harris.
The crowd cheered Justify when
the scoreboard showed the Tigers
had vanquished the Yanks again. as
another victory for the Browns
meant they would be but half a game
out of first place. That's just where
they are.
Milan discovered he was not SO
strong as he thought and after two
innings under the rays of the torrid
sun. with two hits to his credit. he
retired on his laurels. Smith taking
his place in the garden.
, Rice made n fancy one-hnnd catch
of Ellerbe's liner in deep center in
the seventh. but the most spectacular
individual, fielding bit of the after
noon was Shank's effort on Tobin in
round eight. The latter's attempt to
sacrifice resulted in little foul pop
not seven yards from the plate and
Shanks got the ball by sprinting at
his best gait and then diving to
squeeze it off the grass top. He fin
ished with somersault.
With Peck and Shankx hack in
service the Nationals had a complete
auxiliary inf1eld in action during the
preliminary work. 1t consisted of
Bush at third. BlueEe at short. La
Motto at second and Torres at first.
Griff may set forth on scouting
trip when the Nationals move on to
Chicago. He denies any arrange
ments have been made to send either
Phillips or Gleason elsewhere.
