Peake appeared hopelessly beat
en- in the first game, when Crane
had a lead of IA points with only
a few to go. But he suddenly
Strengthened out his game, and for
several innings Crane was unable
to score q point. Peake caught up
so quickly It was almost astonish-
ing, and at the critical moment,
when q ringer meant victory for
either, it was Peake who made the
perfect shot.
It was a brilliant recovery the Be-
thesdan made in the first game, but his
skill and courage were to be put to a
stid test once again before the colorful
Crane was vanquished. The Washing
ton man took the second game with
little resistance, and it appeared to
many that Peake had shot his bolt.
It was midway the third and decid-
ing game that the Marylander began
finding the peg again and he never lost
1t. He warded off threat by the strug-
Cling Crane by tossing two double ring
ers In succession, one Of which Crane
covered.
Peake may not be the most mechan-
ically skillful player in the grand finale
of the Metropolitan tournament, In
which he will meet the champions OF
Washington and Northern Virginia, but
neither of his rivals is likely to have
an edge on him in cool courage.
The Charles County representatives
Pete Reklis and T. w. Posey, were stiff

At that, the Washington club
would not have taken 4-to-3
beating yesterday If heave by
Benny Tate had reached JACK
Hayes at third base instead Of
landing on a White SoX runner
darting back to the sack. This
error let in two runs right off the
reel. Thereafter the White SoX
had difficulty making Roadway.
Myles Thomas and Urban Faber were
the opposing pitchers at the outset OF
hostilitieS, and after rocky time in the
first two rounds both pitched we'll for
five innings. A brace of errors followed
a pass and a triple off Thomas to give
the visitors a trio of tallieS in the first
frame. and the" clustered two safeties
for run in the second. After that only
two hits we're yielded by Myles.
Heat Too Much for Faber.
In his seven innings the veteran Faber
was nicked for only five hits. He walked
three batters, though, and one of the
walks was turned into run IN the
opening round. A hit paved the way to
another marker in the second, and in
the seventh a pair of blows accounted
for the Nationals final score. That
Faber went only seven innings was due
to the excessive heat more than any
thing else. Ted Lyons finished for the
Sox, and was found for a hit in each
of his two innings.
Thomas was withdrawn in the Ma
tionals' seventh batting turn, Red
Barnes being sent in to hit for him. 1t
looked as though MyleS was able to go
the route, but Jack Hayes had just
singled. and Manager Johnson wanted

ally has. Barnes made good as pinch
batter, and Bob Burke performed well
as relief hurler for two innings. but
1t wasn't Thomas day. and he took his
first beating after winning six games in
a row.
The Washington slabman was quite
unsteady at the outset of the contest,
and walked MetZler, first White Sox up,
pitching only one strike to him. Along
came Cissell with triple to tally Alex.
Reynolds should have been thrown out.
but his grounder was juggled by Cronin
long enough to put him on first, al
though Cissell did not dare leave third
base on the rap.
Error Means Two Runs.
Shires took third strike and Tate
heaved the sphere toward Hayes, hoping
to snare Cissell off third base. The bali
bounced OF Cissell's shoulder and rolled
far down the foul line, letting both
Cissell and Reynolds count.
1t was tough break for Thomas and
also for Tate. Bennyis throw was right
at the base, but Cisse1l was in the way.
OF course. the White Sox runner had
the right to the line. Just a good throw
that went wrong.
The Nationals came back to get one
run OH Faber. With Judge out Of the
way, Rice walked and took third as
Goslin singled. When Myer forced out
the Goose, Rice scampered to the count
ting block
A steal Of second by Kerr played a
big part in the making of the fourth
White Sox run. which was registered In
the second session. Johnny singled to
open the round and swiped the base
before Berg hoisted to Goslin. This put
Ptm in position to score when Metzler
singled after Faber had become the
second out. But for the steal there
would have been no run.
