games Buddy has. batted at a 1913 clip.
In 81 times at bat he has made
hits. The Nationals can use heavy
stick such as this one.
Twas q sad Independence day for
the Mack cast-offs, Heimach and
Harriss. Fred swas in trouble all the
way yesterday, but q slip in his sup
port was needed to chase Sims an

so softened the ground that fielding
was difficult. FIagstead got d hit with
an easy roller when Myer slipped In

Bunch Hits on Harriss.

In the 3-to.2 second game the
Nationals were somewhat fortunate.
however. The Fohlmen earned a
run of Marberry by punching three
hits; then an error by Goose Gosiin
payed the way to another, when q
fourth hit Off Fred followed. There
after the Red Sox got but q trio Of
bingles of the erstwhile relief man.
The Nationals punched four of their
seven hits of Slim Harriss in the
fourth frame to get all their runs,
but an error by Fred Haney that
cost side-retiring play helped them
to the scores. They batted against
Jack Russell In the eighth without
getting anywhere.
In the first game the Nationals
crashed into the run column In the
second inning. Stokes wild chuck,
sandwiched between q couple OF pass
es, put Bluege at third and Bucky
Harris at first after two were out
and the pair pulled a. dual theft.
! The Sox came back in the third
round for a brace of markers. After
Heimach singled, Flagstead skied to
Goslin, but Rigney's clout against
the concrete bleachers in left was
good for two sacks and scored the
pitcher. while Todt's triple to right
counted Topper.
The Nationals punched three sin-
giles in the fifth to regain the lead.
Harris opened the inning with q
poke to center, and after Ruel flied
to the far corner. On the throw to
out Johnson's one-baser sent Buclzy
that bag Walter took second. Myers
lOoper to right Tailed both runners.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1926-07-06

IN the sixth the Nationals feath-
cred their nest well. A couple of
hits and a walk filed the bases, with
two out. Ruel's high fly to left fell
safely, and with everybody under
way with the crack Of the bat, three
markers were hung up
A pair Of errors by Bucky Harris
helped the Fohlnen to q pair ofsruns
In the eighth. The pilots fnisplay let
Todt get on, but he was forced out.
A tumble gave Shaner. a life, how
ever, and Regain singled Jacobson
home. After Haney's walk filled the
stations, Rosenthal batted for Stokes
and sent a long fly to Goslin to get
Shaner over the plate.
In the Nationals eighth batting
turn brace of singles with a sac
rifice between put Goslin on third.
Goose tailed after Shaner bagged
Harris high one.
The Red Sox were the first to
count in the second seance Of the
afternoon. They 0ented the plate in
the second inning, when, after two
were out, Regain doubled and Haney
singled. Bischoff also singled to put
Haney on third, but Myer made q
great stop and throw for force
play on the catcher q minute later.
A two.base muff of Flagstead' s
loft by Goslin at. the start OF the
third frame helped the Red Sox
toward another run. Rigney's single
tailed Ira.
Haney's tumble, when he had q
chance to retire the side in the
fourth inning. opened the way to
three National tallies that meant
victory. With two out Of the way.

Curly Ogden In New York looked bet
ter than ever when he Subdued the
Yanks. But Bucky for a time did not
care to use Marberry as a starter.
Fred had been doing relief hurting
so long and was so necessary in that
particular role that the manager did
not care to force the big pitcher to
undergo the extra effort. Fred had
not started game since the 1924 sea-
son. But circumstances practically
forced Bucky to take the chance, and
since Marberry passed the test with
fying colors, the boss isn't fretting
so much about the preparedness Oh
his pitching staff for the stand here
against the Western invasion that
opens Friday.
The Nationals went about trimming
the Fohlmen in businesslike manner
on the soggy field Of Clark Griffith
Stadium yesterday. Nothing was
overlooked. Walter Johnson took the
hill for the first game, and he clearly
outpitched Fred Heimach, although he
yielded eight hits, but one less than
his club made on the former Mack
man. But for a couple Of errors by
Bucky Harris in the eighth inning the
Red Sox would have been beaten by

WATSON, OAWESAT
OUTS WITH CAL
ON FARM RELIEF
Jim, in Speech, Urges Plan
Worked Out by Briton and
Vice President.
BY Roscoe Il. Fleming
Times staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, May 26.-Farm
relief plan worked out between Sir
Josiah Stamp, famous English econo-
mist, Vice President Dawes and corn
belt leaders, was advocated in the
Senate late Tuesday by Senator Wat
son of Indiana. Watson's speech
was regarded as an attempt to as
sumo leadership Of the farm discus
sion in the Senate, and in the put
ting over" of the Dawes Stamp plan
on the floor.
The plan involves the creation of
an export corporation, which would
buy up surplus crops, maintaining
stabilized prices in the United States,
sell the surplus abroad for what it
would bring, and assess an equali-
zatiOn fee on United States produc-
ers Of the affected crop, to recoup
losses on the sales abroad. Presum-
ably the corporation would have
Government backing and financial
aid, The plan is essentially similar
to the Iaugen bill recently defeated
in the House, ,and to the farm relief
measure pending in the Senate.
Watsons speech apparently lines
Dawes and himself definitely up
against the Administration on farm
relief, since President Coolidge and
Secretary Jardine have disapproved
the equalization fee principle, and
defeated the Haugen bill. 1t also
apparently is a bid by the pair to
make Midwest farm leadership
from former Governor Lowden of
Illinois.
