until then that the kid discovered he
had been working on the wrong arm.
Manager Harris stated today that
he thought some of his veteran hurl-
ers would be ready to participate in
Saturdays game here against the
Boston Braves. Walter Johnson is
almost sure to get in for three in
ninss. while Fred Marberry. Alex
Ferguson and Curley Ogden also re-
port themselves as ready and anxious
for competitive tryout.
Myer Shows Fine Form.
Buddy Myer looked the part of an
honest to goodness Shortstop against
the CubanS Yesterday. He was
called on to make two particularly
fast and snappy plays and handled
both like master. He also is show
ing considerable improvement in
working with his second baseman

Peckinpaugh.
The fracas with the Cuhans would
have been an interesting game in
Washington in midseason. The
Cigarmakers did all the threatening,
having men on third in three differ
ent innings, but each time the Young
Nationals were able to rise to greater
heights and halt their progress.
The Rockies rallied but once. in

runs of the game. Singles by Tate

that the rockies were using only their

Manager Harris cannot be blamed for
feeling somewhat pleased.
But this was not the only pitching
news he received yesterday, for just
before the game started Bucky was
advised by President Griffith that
Dutch Ruether at last had seen the
light and had affixed his name TO a
I 1926 contract.
Harris Says He's Glad.
The veteran southpaw reported AT
&this mornings workout and Harris AS
serted he was duly pleased. As Ions
as President Griffith and the player
were arguing terms the National lead
er had little or nothing to say. but
now that the deal is closed and the
pitcher has reported he makes no
bones of the fact that he did not look
toward the season about to open with
much confidence with no experienced
southpaw finger available.
I'm tickled to death that Dutch
finally has settled his argument with
Griff and will be with us again. said
Bucky this morning. II figure that
good left-ha nded pitcher San absolute
necessity in our league. and maybe
I'm not glad the old boy is here
Stanley also had some nice things
to say about the two young port
siders trying for berths with the team
Clarence Thomas and Arthur Hum
phreys. The first named is further
advanced than Humphreys and al
ready has shown lots OF natural abil-
ity. He looks to be the goods to
me-" was Buckys comment about
him.
Humphreys Has Hook.
Humphreys forte is curve ball,
and he threw his first hook this
morning. Consequently it will be an
other week before a line may be OBJ
tanned on his ability. One thing is
certain. with southpaw pitchers being
very scarce animals in the junior cir
cult. this pair is likely to get more
consideration than the rookie right
handlers.
Trainer Mike Martin, who was laid
low Saturday by foul ball which
struck him in the right eye, was out
for the first time this morning since
the accident and was given royal
welcome by the players.
During his absence Clubhouse Boy
