The Griffs ran into Nevers for
the first time on July 81 at st.
Louis. Opposing Walter Johnson
at his best that day, the young
ster never had a chance of win
ming, but he did command their
respect. Only good words were
used of him that night.
Nevers is a whale Of boy. big
and strong and muscular. He is
right-handed pitcher with side
arm and half underhand delivery.
For one so big he does not appear
to have much speed, but he gets
plenty on the ball and his control
is good.
That day in st. Louis Nevers
looked like a good ball player. in
addition to being a pitcher. There
is difference, for many good
pitchers are not good ball players
Three times he trundled over to
first base to take short losses
from Sisler and three times he did
it cleverly.
Once Earl McNeely thought to
take advantage of Nevers' mex
perience and started for second
as the youngster held the ball
Earl learned something, for Me-
lilo held the ball, waiting for his
arrival. 1t was one Native Son
against. another, and so Earl just
grinned.
Five runs came off Nevers'
stuff that day, three of them home
runs by Goslin, Judge and Rice,
yet the youngster looked good.
Last Thursday Nevers went In
against the hard hitting Detroit
Tigers and licked 'em, to g
Manush got three hits and Gehrin-
ger two, but Fothergill, Neun
Tavener, Heilmann and BassleI
got but two blows among them
off the big collegian.
George Sisler has apparently
decided to give the Californian a
complete tryout. and he would be
brash, indeed, who would say the
big fellow won't make good.

Young Ray McGarvey, president
Of the Petworth Senior League, has
offered a proposition that slightly
embarrasses the Capital City Base
ball Association. He proposes that
the pennant winner of his league
meet the senior champion of the
Association in a series for the city
title, a title legitimately won by the
Auths.
But there were only four teams
in the Capital City Association
senior class and the Auths' cham.
piOnship victory was little to get
excited over from the standpoint
of actual conquest. However,
they met and defeated all placed
before them and it was not their
fault that the opposing teams
were only three.
And McGarvey, knowing that all
the teams under his jurisdiction
were offered the opportunity to
enter the Association series, casts
no aspersien on the Auths' title.
His opinion Is that the Auths'
championship would be more repre-
sentative of city supremacy were
they to beat the pennant winner of
the Petworth Senior League, which
is composed of six teams playing
under virtually the identical rules
that govern the Association senior
division.
McGarvey, bearing constantly In
mind that his clubs declined an
invitation to compete in the Capt.
tai City series, makes no claim for
recognition. He merely suggests
a plan by which the Auths' title
would carry more prestige.
There Is another angle Of the
situation that might he cOnsid.
cred by the Capital City AssO-
citation. This body plans a final
series between the winner Of it's
unlimited class and the winner
OF the pOst-seasOn inter-Ieague
series.
If its champion is to play the
league champion, unlimited class,
why not have it's senior titleholder
play the Petworth Senior Leagues
pennant winner?
In each case it would be an Asso'
citation champion against a league
champion.
The Auths need not feel obligated
to risk their title. But Bill San
derson's brilliant young team has
been so successful generally that
it might desire to meet the Pet.
worth victor merely Car the sport.

Rickard will not take legal steps
himself. He took pains to make
that point clear. The State Ath-
Ietic Commission, it was insinuated,
would be the aggressor, IL any.
1.-THE commission will take some
action at it's meeting today" the
promoter said. 81 probably will at
tend the meeting but, as far as
am concerned, the match Will not
leave New York; neither will I take
further steps to keep 1t here. All
Il can say at this time is that the
commission probably will vote TO
take the license committee into
court to show cause why Dempsey
should not be granted a lic51se.
With the scheduled fate Of the
fight less than q month away, 1t
was obvious that. if nothing hap
pened to alter the situation today,
or at least within. the current week,
the enterprise will gently but firm
ly breathe it's last.
Richard might postpone the
inevitable by setting his clock
back to September %, but If he
had to wait for action until the
next committee meeting on August
20, he might just as well take
short, snappy dive into the East
river, for he will be all wet, any
how. Besides. the Messrs. Phelan
and Wear made it quite clear last
night that no mere importantly,
be il ever so eloquent, can soften
them on this point.
They were so vehement, in fact,
that Phelan forgot that, while he
was insisting upon Wills name on
the contract, he had less than a
week before declared that any name
would do, mine, yours or Joe Wind
mills, and while they were revers-
ing themselves on this point, they
went right ahead reading from the
minutes of commission meetings in
tacit complaint that the body. had
gone into reverse on the subject
Of Harry Wills.

NJ KIM NIL:
VICTOR
By Ross L. Conklin

The best way to play golf when
it's raining is to stay in the clup
house and eat free cheese ana
crackers. Most of Washington
golf professionals did that in the
sweepstakes at Indian Spring, and
many of them made shots that they
could not have duplicated on the
course.
Cliff McKimmie and Ralph Beach
did the winning shooting. Cliff
raped off a II to lead the field,
and Beach shot a 70 to take the
low gross honors. aided by a three
stroke handicap. Bob Barnett and
Reds Bannigan were seconds, the
latter being awarded the second low
net and the former the second low
gross.
The pros were playing the first
holes of the second nine when the
storm broke in all it's fury. They
beat it for the club house with an
alacrity seldom seen in the paid
clan. That gave them an hour to
while away until the storm abated,
and how they spent that hour Is
nobody's business.
It was learned during the day
that Ralph beacn, burning Tree.
came within a few inches of
listening to Gabriels foot Sunday.
He was driving out Bradley Lane
i'm his Pierce-ArrOw roadster when
he was suddenly confronted by n
wayward touring car. In order
to avoid an accident, Beach
turned his car sharply, and it
turned completely over.
The machine was damaged and
Beach was cut on the left arm.
The fact that he came through
such an accident with no other
hurts was a miracle.
Other scores made were:

PORTLAND, Me-. November 10
| The National Grange had committed
| itself today to a definite program for
farm relief and declared itself in ia
vor of enforcement of prohibition.
F, The delegates, who were on their way
home from the sixtieth annual meet
! ing today, opposed the Treasury De-
partment's plan to make a refund on
income taxes, but urged that any sur
plus should be applied to the national
debt as means of reducing the tax
burden. The national executive COM
mittee was asked to investigate
charges that liquor was sold on
American ships beyond the 12-mile
limit.
Oppose Change In Alien Law.
The Grange voiced opposition to
any change in the ineligible alien
clause of the johnson immigration
bill and any Federal interference with
State and local regulation of motor
vehicle transportation. Congress was
urged to enact a law providing that
fabrics be plainly and truthfully
labeled" Approval of the American
merchant marine policy. a pledge OF
an expression in favor of regional
representation on the board were
adopted.
Included in it's resolutions designed
to benefit the American farmer was
a declaration in favor of the leasing
of the Muscle Shoals power project
to the responsible company making
the best tffer and agreeing to manu-
factur. high grade fertilizer ms
terial carrying not less than 40 per
cent plant food"
The grange opposed additional Fed
eral appropria tions for reclamation
projects until the present surplus Of
farm products no longer exists. 1t
likewise opposed further centralized
control of the Federal farm loan sys-
tenn.
Would Protect Surplus Products.
Liberal State and Federal appropri-
ations for the determination of the
corn borer and the eradication of dis
ease among dairy animals were favor
ed. Tariffs on tomatoes and dairy
products also were urged
The national executive committee
was urged to work for the universal
return to standard time. 1t was also
urged that the parcel post system be
put on a business basis, and that 1t
accept for shipment agricultural ne
cessities now barred. Opposition was
voiced to a contract system for rural
free mail delivery.
The grange reaffirmed support of
the principle of the direct primary as
protecting the rights of the people and
suggested only correction of its weak
nesses. 1t also advocated a national
farmers day" in October to empha
size the importance of agriculture.
