Grove lyQuickly Finished.

Bob Grove. Comics expensive
southpaw, was on the slab at the
start, but he was withdrawn after
four batters had faced him in the
opening inning without one being re
tired. Joe Pate, 32-year-old recruit
from the Texas League, followed, and
Joe left with two out and two on
i'm the fourth. Fritz Heimach fin
ished. In all. the Nationals got a
couple of passes, 13 safeties for Ia
bases and had two batters INT ny
pitched balls.
The Champions got their margin OF
victory in the first round. Rice walk
ed. an error by Hale put Bucky 1iaf-
ris on and GosIn's pass filled the
sacks. Joe Harris beat out II drive
10 Galloway, scoring Rice and send
ing Grove to the showers. Pate could
not prevent Judges bounder from be-
coming a single and Boss Bucky
counted. Goslin tailed as Bluege
drove into It double play, ana Myef
one-baser sent Joe Harris home.
After an easy first frame Johnson
was slammed in~the second. Hauser
singled and. following Simmons foul
to Ruel, raced to the plate when
TVelch singled to left and G0slin let
the ball go through, enabling the
hitter to reach third. Cochrafle
triple followed, and Mickey scored as
Galloway was tossed out.
In the third Goslin singled ana
pulled up at the far corner when Joe
Harris doubled. Judge took a third
strike. but Bluege tripled against the
center field fence.
Two more National runs We're regis
tered in the fourth off Pate. Johnson
slammed a two-bagger. and took thiru
after WEIGH caught Rice's fly. Bucky
Harris was hit by Pate, and, after
Goslin whitfield, Joe Harris received
similar treatment, filling the bases;
Judges single tailed Barney ana
Bucky.
Doubles by Welch and Heimach ac-
counted for an Athletic marker IN
the fourth, and in the fifth boT n CLUBS
scored for the last time. Bluege's SIN
Gle. Myers sacrificial bunt and john
sons one-baser manufactured the Ma
tional run. Hauser drove homer
over the right-field wall for the As.

One more opponent must be downed
before the undefeated Third can claim
the title On Monday the leaders will
meet the Seventh Semester nine in
what probably will be the deciding
clash. Should the Seventh win, how
ever, the series might again be tied
up.
In the two other games played yes
terday. the Eighth defeated the Sec
ond, II to Is, and the Seventh downed
the Sixth, 10 to Z. While the latter
team succumbed to the superior abil-
ity of their opponents twirler, still it
played the best game of its career
and kept the score tied full three
fourths of the time.
The Sixth will have one more oppor-
tunity to put it's improved teamwork
to the test when it meets the Second
Semester on Monday.
The third game slated for Monday
will bring together the combination
