dashed back of the middle base to check
the balls progress. He failed to keep
single from Cronin, but managed to
heave the ball to Catcher Mickey Coch-
-rane, who lunged at Goslin as that
worthy threw himself into desperate
slide toward the plate.
From cloud of dust, the Goose
emerged, claiming he had scored the
run that meant a deadlock. Umpire
Brick Owens said the Goose didn't and
the Nationals were licked again by the
Athletics, to 3.
The Nationals failed to do much
hitting, making seven Safeties all told,
but they made good use of their hits.
Five of them cleaned of the venerable
Jack Quinn were clustered in two of
the first six rounds, and each of the
two clusters meant scoring. But the
AS got to Garland Braxton for Is hits
before he gave way to Fred Marberry in
the seventh. The visitors got only one
more safety of Marberry, but the dam
age had been done. Ed Rommel, who
relieved Quinn. yield two slams, the
two that went for naught in the eighth
1t was another case of the Nationals
not being able to hold to what they
had. Backing pass to Rice with
fourth, they managed to put over a run
that matched that made by the AS in
the third with Haas single and Coch-
ranes double. In the sixth they
chased Quinn when Myers single and
theft, Goslin's two-bagger and Vests
single accounted for two tallies and a
lead. But the AS came back in the
seventh for three runs and the game.
Bishop singled, only to be forced out
by Haas. Cronin, though, made wild
chuck when he tried for double play,
in of h
rane singled Haas to third and then the
always dangerous Simmons was pur-
poSely passed to fill the bases for pos
Sible Side-retiring double play. Hale re-
fused to become entangled in the home
clubs strategic net instead singing to
center and chasing two runs over to tie
the Washington total. When Foxx
slashed single through Myer the
sacks were crowded again.
Here Marberry came up. He was able
only to knock down Miller's measly tap
and throw out the batter. That let Sim
mons cross with the big run Of the
game.
BY their victory the AS clinched the
annual series with the Nationals It
was the twelfth win for the Philadel-
phians in Is starts against Johnson's
charges this season. incidentally, it was

the Nationals fifth straight defeat.
More than 10000 turned out for the
pastiming yesterday. A pretty good
crowd, considering the Nationals record
to date.
Cochrane had a perfect day at bat.
The AS catcher went to the plate five
times for two doubles and three singles.
In the last five games between the AS
and Nationals Cochrane went to bat
10 times for IL hits totaling 10 bases.
He also drew one pass and made one
sacrifice. ..
Gooch filled in at first base for the
! Nationals because Joe Judge, regular
guardian, was put out of commission
early in the day by a stomach attack.
Judge will be on the job again tomor-
row.

himself, and Master Hoyt spent the rest
of the afternoon in the clubhouse Won
dering whether he would get credit for
the pitching victory, which he did.
The game marked the first appear
ance Of the Yankees upon Braves Field,
which the Red Sox use for Sunday
games because OF its advantage over
the Fenway in seating capacity.
Rip Collins scattered seven Indian hits
to win over Willis Hudlin by l to o on
only five safe blows by his st. Louis
comrades. Blues double and Manush's
single in the eighth settled the argu-
ment, leaving the Browns in a threat
ening position.
The Pirates definitely inserted them
selves into the National League fight,
for the moment at any event, by TAX
ing both ends of a double header from
the Cardinals at Sportsman's Park The
scores were II to 8 and to S, with
Burleigh Grimes stampeding to the aid
of faltering Pittsburgh pitchers in each
engagement.

run, had little difficulty in turning back
the Reds by S to l at Chicago.
The Sabbath results in the National
League left the Cubs leading the Cardi-
mails by q margin of one full game, rep
resented by difference of two In the
losing column-this in spite of two de-
featS in three days for the Bruins in st.
Louis. The Pirates rested only one and
one-half games behind the Cubs and
half a game to the rear Of the cham
pion Cardinals. The rest of the league
remained below the 500 mark, despite
the fifth successive victory of the Giants,
who stopped the Braves by Is to at
the Polo grounds.
The Robins completed the National
League program by cleaning up their
third straight over the Phillies, 5 to 4.

For Dr. Work political life is paved with good in
tentions that don't look good in retrospect. His
career has been just grand abi after another He
is kind his enemies by giving them constant causes
for flogging him. Then, to be on the winning side
he usually begins flogging himself.
The good doctor, having nothing much to do since
the election got to dreaming dreams and seeing
Visions Apparently he saw himself as the maker of
cabinets So it let out discreetly that among his
cabinet ideas was his docile vcecharman, Mrs ALVIN
T. Hert of Kentucky prospective secretary Of the
interior She was a woman and i faithful party
worker and as such was adequate cabinet timber, ac-
cording to his political logic
Of course there was immediate reaction against
