CURL Up

BOSTON, June 29.-Bucky Harris
has only seven pitchers, including
Ogden and Palmero, both of whom
toiled yesterday with DISASTROUS re-
suits. He cannot well let either out
until he has somebody to replace
them. Therefore, he denies with
great fervor that he is thinking
of letting either of them go. But
he is planning just that thing,
nevertheless, and in doing so he Is
showing great common sense.
Neither Ogden nor Palmero be.
longs in this league.
The Boston Red Sox are not
rood ball club. They looked well
Yesterday because of Washington
weak hurting and Wiltse's bril-
Iiancy. Day in and day out, they
are a bad ball club. And the Griffs
should have walked away with yes
terday's victory had either Ogden
or Palmero delivered half as well
as did the little southpaw. Wiltse.
The champions started like cham
pions. They finished like whipped
dogs. Until Ogden blew up In the
fifth the Griffs gave as much -
they took. Their playing was
snappy. They acted like champions.
But when Ogden blew the game
they curled up and took their HEX
ing as best they could. This was
noticeable and every sports writer
commented on it today.
A. 4 matter Of fact, the Griffs
underestimate the SOx, some
ching that. shouldn't be done
these days. The Red SOx, while
! bad ball club from several
angles, are dangerous. They can
hit, for one thing, and when they
get the sort OF pitching served
IN by Wiltse they can upset the
best team In the league.
The GriffG really made . fight
for four frames. Then Ogden col.
lapsed and the Sox rushed out
ahead IL stay. The score was to
when the Red Sex went to bat
IN the fifth. It was to for
the Rsd soy when that frame ended
stokes opened that fifth with =
double ana Wiltse singled. Flag
stead doubled to the corner in right
field The next two perisheds but
Jacobson and Regan singled 10
center and Shaner was hit BY e
pitched ball. Rigney popped to
Bluege with three runs over ana
the bases loaded. That was lucky
break Tor Ogden and the Griffs.
Showing 1t was no fluke, the
Red Sox came back in the sixth
and scored another run, after two
were gone. Flagstead was hit ny
pitched ball. reached third on
Herrera's infield hit and scored
when Todt slammed his second
two-bagger to the corner in rigat.
Tex Jeanes hit for Ogden in the
seventh and so Palmero finished
the game. He did his best, which
wasn't much The Red Sox cracked
him wide open in the eighth, get
ting two singles, a double and a
pair of walks. But for a double
play he would have looked worse
than he did. Stokes two-bagger.
WiItse's pass and Flagstead's single
filled the bases with nobody out.
Herrera hit into a double play,
Stokes dying at the plate, but, q
pass to Todt filled the bases and
Jaeobson's single to left scored
Goslin's perfect peg to Ruel
cut down Flagstead seeking to
score on .Jake's hit. That's how
PalmerO escaped with but q single
run off his stuff. He didn't de-
serve such luck.
Peck's walk, his steal and Stokes
bad throw, followed by Ruels
double, gave the champions their
run in the second inning.
Bucky Harris opened the eighth
with a single, went up on Wiltse's
wild throw to Todt, reached third
on a sacrifice fly and scored on
Judges infield out. Neither run
was earned, so good was young
