GRIFFS LOSE ALL
INTEREST IN WORK

CHICAGO, August 29.-Their losing
streak has assumed such proportions
that the Nationals apparently have
ceased to worry about it. They simply
go to the field just in time for pre-
game drills, go through the motions
of ball playing during the engage
ment, hurry back to their hotel as
soon as possible after the loss and
promptly forget all that has happened.
No meetings are held before games
and no discussions of the lost con.
test occur afterward. In fact, the
Nationals have all but cea sed to be
club. 1t has become a matter Of every
man for himself. with none bothering
particularly whether the other fellow
is doing good work or poor work.
Certainly, a good ball club has gone
wrong.

Manager Harris at the last moment
switched to johnson as starting
pitcher against the Sox yesterday,
reserving Lisenbee for today. Walter

innings he worked, but in his last
round the leg he had hurt panied so
that he had to retire.
