SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN TODAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY MeLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK. May 13.-Among
the 339, AL things this writer never
has been able to figure out is the
tendency among baseball people to
underestimate the Importance of
games won between April and July
To this unframed eye a baseball
game in May is just the same as
one in late August or September
and counts every bit as heavily in
the final reckonings. May games,
like their brothers in September,
| boast nine innings. nine men to
I a side. umpireS at the plate, at
first and at third, and admission at
the gate.
Why, then. the general belief
that today's standings in the Amer
ican and National soon will be
righted with the mighty men Of
McGraw and Street and McGilli-
cuddy blasting back to their ac-
customed places in the sun? Is
there any law making it compulsory
for Washington and Cincinnati and
Chicago to fold up like 1913 ac-
Gordon?
Granted that rated strictly off
their 1881 performances the Card
inals and Athletics are due for bet
ter things. But I don't see why
their Improvement is a certainty,
any more than the collapse of the
current leaders is a certainty. The
race in the National would seem to
be free -for-all with any one Of
three or four clubs standing an
elegant chance to cop.
II 1 had to bet right now on the
winner Id take Chicago, because
Chicago has won more and lost less
than any club in the league. Id
much rather run the risk Of
leader collapsing than Of trailer
revving. A team that can win in
Nav is a pretty good bet 10 win
in August. and vica versa.
Guessing Wild
Folks viii tell you that Hornsby
just can't keep on getting the
pitching he has had to date. And
in the next breath the same folks
will tell you that the Giants Just
can't keep on playing SO poorly.
And why should the Cincinnati's
collapse? Are there any statistics
TO show that such players as Her
man, Douthit, Hafey, Lucas and
Kolp can't deliver in September as
they did in May? And why should
the Cardinals be such ball Of
fire? The passing of time is likely
to serve to show just how nicely
the Cards kicked the championship
out of the window by ridding them
/ selves of Hafey and Grimes.
To hear Philadelphia followers
tell it, it is only d matter Of time
until Washington and New York
buckle at the knees to form nice
stepping stone for the Athletics
Don't you believe it. All that 1881
i Washington club needed TO be a
1 power house was a hitting outfield-
er and a pitching pitcher. And
they got Reynolds and Weaver.

r EXTINCTION, Va, September
24.-An aggressive George
L. Washington UniverSty eleven
battered down this Wash
ington and Lee defense tocay ana
took from the Generals the first
game of the season here, 18 to 0.
The Washingtonians piled up a
12-to-0 lead in the first period,
and added another touchdown in
the third quarter. Meanwhile
Washington and Lee failed to fol-
low up its few opportunities.
With Fenlon, Strayer and F. Parrish
forming a smooth working backfleld
trio, aided by Fullback Kremelmeyer,
the George Washington team frequently
accounted for long gains, both on the
ground and in the air.
Fenlon's individual performance with
passes and breaking through the line
was responsible for two of the touch
downs
GEORGE WASHINGTON first gained
" the ball in the opening period
when Parrish recovered a punt
The visiting backs quickly registered
gains sufficient for a first down. Fen
Ion went around the right end for Is
yards and then passed to Mulvey, who
first juggled, and then pulled in the
ball over the goal line for the first
Soon after Washington and Lee
missed one of its opportunities to score
when Parrish intercepted Collins pass
on the 13-yard line, after bad punt
and a penalty had put the Generals
within striking distance.
Fenlon scored the visitors second
touchdown a few minutes later with a
34-yard run through right tackle.
WASHINGTON AND LEES attempts
w to gain in the second quarter
were fruitless. Fenlon then
started another drive, passing IT yards
flank for 20 yards, and passed to
Chambers for il, but the Generals
STAYED of the threat until the half
ended.
Fortune came again to the Generals
Mosovitch recovered a punt tumble by
Strayer. He scooped it up on the 40
yard line. Sawyer, Collins and Hen
thorne hammered the George Washing
ton line for short gains. Sawyers pass
was incomplete, and the Generals
punted.
Regaining possession of the ball,
George Washington passed for yards,
and then engaged in a punting duel.
However, it was not long before Malta
passed 10 yards to Parrish, who ran
SO more for the third and final touch
down.
THE Generals took the offensive for
i while in the final period when
Henthorne intercepted Fenlon'S
pass and ran 20 yards. Sawyer passed
toNMosovitch for first down at mid
field, and Henthorne added another
first down on three plungeS before the
Generals were stopped.
The Generals halted another George
