Next Six Tits
Tell Fate Of
Griffmen
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times Staff Correspondent.

PHILAD ELPH1A, July l.
Whether or not the Griffs re-
main in the first division will be
told during the next four days
when six games against the Phila-
delphia AS and New York Yankees
are to be played.
Four of these contests will be
with the AS, the first due today,
while after tomorrow's double
header here and Sundays single
game at Griffith Stadium, the
New York Yankees will be met
in a twin bill Monday in Wash.
irgton.
First TO Appear
Even should the Griffmen come
off second best in their engage
mentS with the AS and Yankees
their last hope would be a tri-
umphant stand against the West
ern clubs who invade the Griffith
Stadium next week.
Fortunately, the Cleveland In
dianS and Chicago White Sox
will be the first teams to appear.
A good start should be made
against these clubs. if records for
the season mean anything, while
it stands to reason the st. Louis
Browns and Detroit Tigers can't
continue to win always from
Manager Johnson's men, such as
they have so far this year.
Weaver Out OF Series
Because Professor Mon e
Weaver's back is not in the best
Of shape. Manager Johnson an
nounced this morning that the
former International League star
would not get into this Philadel.
phia series, as formerly planned.
Lefty Lloyd Brown was due to
take the mound today with
Alphonse Thomas and Dick Coff-
man getting the call tomorrow.
This means Gen. Alvin Crowder
will no doubt hurl Sundays game
at Griffith Stadium. For the
double header on July 4 with the
Yanks at Griffith Stadium, John.
son hasn't decided yet just who
will work. Weaver probably will
be ready for one of the games,
while Big Fred Marberry may pos
sibly be called upon as a starter.

Something like 100 youths from
the Atlantic Seaboard and the
Middle West, representing 40
schools of higher learning, will
fight it out with an almost equal
number of 1.-the youngsters from
the three great universities of
California.
First Time in West
The occasion will be the fifty
sixth annual intercollegiate "A
championship, to be staged in
the new Edwards Stadium of the
University of California, and will
mark the first time these games
have been played away from the
eastern shores of the U. S. A.
University of Southern .Califor-
MIA already is conceded first
honors, Stanford is accorded
second place, California third and
the Fasteners can divide what
is left-which will be little more
than bottles of liniment for ach-
ing muscles.
However, Lawson Robertson,
coach of the Pennsylvania squad
and head coach of the American
Olympic team, isn't so certain
that the WeSternerS will romp
away with the major portion of
the galloping honors. He asserts:
Eastern Lads Fleet
Il hear it said that the Pa.
cific Coast folks after studying
the records of the Eastern
SprinterS and middle distance
men, have gained the idea that
about four of the boys came
here to compete and the others =
are along just for a nice excur-
sion. Maybe SO-and maybe
not.
eve have some pretty fair
runners in our Eastern deIega-
ton and I have a quaint little
idea that when these lads are
turned loose they are going to
move SO fast that the Pacific
Coast boys will think they are

Joe Stecher coiled his powerful
legs around the venerable torso
of Chief White Feather, sending
the old Indian gladiator down to
