ROUT INDIANS 14-4
AFTER II DEFEAT
Weaver HurIS, Hits to Win in
Second-BroWn Suffers
His Fourth Loss.
BY JOHN B. KELLER.

INDIANS, the NatlonalS laSneQ
out savagely in Griffith
Stadium yesterday and showed
they may be down but never out.
Following 4-to-1 beating
which they took with the meek
ness of lambs, Johnson's charges
became rampaging lions and
clawed and mangled the Tribe in
14-to-4 victory.
1t was the first split of a double
header by the Nationals this year. They
have played II, losing six both ways
and hogging everything in four.
1t was a rookie hurler that upset
the johnson band in the early argu-
ment. Oral Hildebrand, making his
third start of the season, allowed but
six safeties and four passes and not
until the ninth inning could the Ma
tionals find the plate.
The Indians had handed Lloyd
Brown his fourth defeat of the cam
paign in the first part of the fray. -Four
Of the eight hits yielded by the left
handler were clustered in the opening
inning for a trio of tallies and in the
second session the Tribe got an I'M
earned run. Thereafter Brown was in
fine fettle, but his club was helpless
at bat.
In sharp contrast was the Washing
ton offensive in the second tilt. Then
they collected 20 hits, nine off Sarge
Connally before the game was three
innings old and the remainder off Leo
Moon, a left-handed recruit up from
the Pelicans of New Orleans. The In
dians with a second inning splurge got
a lead. but only for short time, as
the Nationals hammered everything
pitched to them in the first four
rounds
Weaver HurIs, Bats to Victory.
Monte Weaver went the route to get
his eleventh win of the year. He al
lowed the Tribe Just eight blows, five
after his wabbly second session. Weaver
backed his good hurting with a fine
display at bat, too. With two doubles
and as many singles hit in the first
four of his five trips to the plate he
drove across five runs and carried over
three himself.
In was Montes single in the third
inning that sent in the score that ultt-
mately proved the big one of the game
for the Nationals.
The bargain bill was not without its
home run. Glenn Myatt of the Tribe
provided this feature in the second in
