Keep Racket Back of You on Sprint Shot

is usually race from one side of
the court to the others
In making this race few players
give thought to the important detail
of having the racket in hitting posi-
ton. Usually they wait until they
have arrived ut their destination
and then start to swing. The result
is sharp, jerky swing, and an i'm
possible hit. The ball flies out OF
the court by yards.
You will improve your game no.

this extra burden. Just remember
t. keep the racket back of you in

the top mere flash in the pan?
Can the club keep it up and bring
to Washington it's first American
League pennant?
Baseball fans the country over,
Washington in particular, are de-
batting these questions, wondering
what the future holds forth for
Manager Stanley Harris and his
pennant contenders.
Ten years ago the Boston Braves
startled the baseball world by not
only winning the National League
pennant, but also in capturing the
world series in four straight games
from the supposedly invincible
Athletics.
In the sport world the so-calIed
miracles happen about every III
years. Possibly the Washington
club Of 1924 will surprise the base
ball world as did the Braves of 1914.
None of the experts doped the
Braves to win 10 years back. In
the spring predictions for the 1914
race in the American League none
of the wise men of baseball gave the
Nationals much consideration as a
pennant possibility.
Regardless of where the Washing
ton club finishes this year, the great
showing of the team has added
much color to the American Leas.e
race and stimulated interest II.

The high position of the Wash
ington club with the race half
over is deserved. The team has
played heads-up, snappy baseball,
and taken advantage of good pitch
ing.
Manager Harris has handled his
club we'll, imbued it with a fighting
spirit and has created the desire to
win. The club is giving the boy
manager its best at all times. Not
