on the back of the watch was in
scribed Presented by Calvin Coolidge,
President of the United States. to
Stanley Harris; White House, May 4,
1925"
The presentation was to have been
made at Clark Griffith Stadium last
Friday, when the Nationals raised
their American League championship
pennant, but as the President could
not attend the game the ceremony was
postponed until today.
GosIin furnished ocular evidence OF
his strength of arm in the first, when
he took Boone's bounding single on
the run and with a line heave to Peck
tagged Ike trying to stretch his
bingle to two bases.
Ruether's neglect in not touching
first on his safety in the third cost
him an extra base. Retracing his
steps to toe the sack, Dutch was only
able to reach second on his wallop,
which carried TO the barrier in left
center.
Nache'S desperate effort to make a
shoestring catch of Judges liner in
the fourth gave Joe triple. Missing
the ball completely. what should have
been a single was converted into a
three-bagger when the ball bounded
on to the bleachers.
Leib0ld was aided in converting his
bunt into a single in the fifth when
Fullerton crashed into Prothro as he
was fielding the ball.
Nache turned in a workmanlike job
in clutching Judges liner in the sew
enth. He had to sprint we'll over to
his left and back, but timed his dash
nicely.
That See-saw battle between Goslin
and Judge for top batting honors con-
tinues. Judge was hauled back by
Goslin Saturday. but his brace of
bingles yesterday, while Goose went
hitless, again sent the first sacker to
the top.
Howard Ehmke, lean right-hander
of the Red SOX. who has been
suffering from grip all Spring, made
his first appearance in a game yes
terday. He lacked his usual stuff, but
held the Griffs hitless. at that, during
the last three frames.
An exhibition game has tentatively
been arranged for the Nationals next
Thursday at South Bend, Ind, en-
route to Chicago, where the Griffs
start a series with the White SoX on
Friday.
Infielder Ralph Miller, sent to
Wichita as part payment for Pitcher
Jim Mcnamara, has been returned by
the Western League club and yester-
day was turned over to New Haven

In recent years the Ebbets faction
and the Mckeevers have not always
agreed, although under the arrange
ment by which the partners worked
it did not materially affect the con
duct of the club, since TO EbbetS had
been intrusted the executive manage
ment, with which the McKeevers were
less familiar. Ebbets wished to pur-
chase the McKeeyer holdings or some
part of them in the later years of his
life, but the Mckeever brothers We're
so certain they had a gold mine
that they declined to sell.
Ebbets' Heirs Are United
Since the death of President Ebbets
there has been held a meeting Of his
heirs, at which it has been agreed
that they will not sell their stock, and
under no consideration will they dis
pose of any part Of it TO any one
connected with the McKeever faction.

McKeever, who succeeded TO the presi-
dncy of the club after Ebbets passed
on. has created a new situation which
has interested the controlling powers

president of the club, shall sell his

to remain in base ball if she can get
out at a price that will amply reward
the original investment.
The Ebbets family are bitterly in
censed against Stephen Mckeever, and
will not listen to anything which shall
appear TO give him control of the
club in any way. Under no circum-
| stances will they agree TO anything
which will submerge the clubs
identity as an Ebbets creation. The
