TODAY'S SPORTORIAL
BY KIRK MILLER

Should any Of you fathers or
elder brothers Of the sandIot
horde Of Washington chance
upon these lines, you might read
them aloud to or mention them
IN some way to the juniors who
make up the ranks Of Washing
tons little army Of corner lot
baseball actors.
It is this--a lesson in sports
manship that some Of the
youngsters need very much to
master, for the growing lack Of
that necessary quality in anna
teur athletics is beginning to
reflect nnfavorably across the
mirror Of the glass-topped ma
hogany desk where the sport
ing editor presides.
Some of the kids seem to be
gagged by an unwritten law
that the loser of baseball
game is under no obligation to.
make the matter public. With
the Youngsters the onus for
trotting into the sporting de-
partment with the paragraph
about the game rests with the
winner.
AZ any, OF the elders will ten
them, this attitude is quite
damp. In plainer language, IL
il rather wrong; for to court
publicity when one wins and to
play the part of q sphinx when
one loses il a perverted angle
of sport which indeed strips the
game of that classification alto
gether.
Even the tots, in their un-
sophistication, cannot conceive
of the score Of the Washington
baseball team being Topographic
cally avoided when the club

lose common occurrence
these times. OF course, the
system Of reporting the major
league activities ID quite differ
ent than that which obtains
upon the sand dunes of Wash
ington, but this il not ] wall
on causes; rather one on effects.
The boys and girls Of WASH
ington should understand this
about their games: There ii no
disgrace IN losing. There should
be nothing to hide about 3 con-
test hard fought and honorably
lost. OF 4 necessity and by the
very nat1Ke 81 things, one side
needs must win and one lose
and many 81 the lost games are
often as much of d credit to
the defeated side as they are to
the victorious.
The PhiIadelphia Athletics
probably never played ! finer
game in their lives than rhe
one il which Washington de-
feated them, / to o, in Is
innings on the opening day Of
the current season Ii Griffith
Stadium. RommeI looked just
as good in defeat Is johnson
did in victory There was noth-
ing for the As to hang their
heads about in that game and
no cause to suppress any detail.
whether ! Philadelphia or .
Washington supporter.
Invariably, as the juveniles
Of Washington come TO register
their activities with the press,
they answer to the question.
tWho won

We are still waiting for one
Of their tiny voices to pipe:

drop off like icicIes off q burn
ing roof. They have just got
through digesting q winning
streak and the team Is all on edge
like dishes standing on q shelf.
The Phils and White Sox will
catch the Yanks but we Senators
will hold them. We have been fed
on cream for the last two seasons
and 1t Ia going to take more than
Babe Ruth to send us back on
skim milk. You can't gum up the
facts that we are twice pennant
winner and we are going to repeat
like q Tammany voter on election
day.
We win let the Japanese fans
wave for a while but look out
when the old Dutch windmill starts
like sheep crossing a river. We've
got a winning streak concealed in
our systems too and when we start
unloading you don't want to be
near the hay scales because we
are carrying dynamite.
] am not throwing sawdust into
the sugar bowl because a winning
streak OF is games isn't to be
sneezed off like a spring cold. It
means 16 games and brings the
Yanks. closer to the golden cabbage.
But, 1t don't mean so much when
you realize that the Athletics.
White Sox and we weren't going
to slow ourselves. A tramp riding
the brakes gets along just as quick
as the rest Of the people in the
Pullmans.

two and drop one all year. There
is terrific strain connected with
winning streaks when everybody
gets as crabby as Chesapeake Bay.

/ hit for about 1873 for the season
ordinarily. That means I get one
hit in three times at bat. / hit q
home run about one out Of every
six or seven hits. That figures out
that win hit one over the fence
maybe once in 20 times at bat.
Yet pitchers pass me time after
time in a close game. Some times
they do it when I'm the first man
up, and there's no one on base. I
claim that's bad baseball, and ]
don't care who does it. II chap

than / did ON two out Of every

OF course, I'm a bit prejudiced
on this intentional pass business. A
chap naturally gets tired of walking
up there to the plate time after
time and never getting a chance 10
- - hn1 n mn
when he comes up to the plate, has
a feeling that he's going to hit.
And when he walks then he goes
down to first feeling that he's been
cheated out Of q base hit.
/ get a lot of letters from fans
every season, bowling about all the

that there are times when it's good
baseball to walk man. If a pitcher
is in a tight place with a good hitter
at the plate and fellow who is In.
a hitting eiump follows him, why.
then it might be good business to
hand out q pass.
And a lot Of times with men on
