LEAN LEFT-HANDER
/. THRIVING ON WORK
Conquest of Mats Is Fifth
Straight Win and Tenth
Contest in II Days.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,
Associated Press Enorte Uriter

IN Bob Groves thin shoul-
| ders rest almost the entire
~ burden of keeping the
Philadelphia Athletics in
the American League pennant
race, but the crack southpaw
seems to be thriving on work.
. An apparent "throw-back" to
such base ball iron men as Ed
Walsh and Joe McGinnity, the
lanky ace of Connie Mack'S dis
appointing pitching staff took the
mound yesterday for the tenth
time in II days, scattered WASH
lngton'S II hits as the AS won.
7-4, and hung up his fifth sue
cesSive victory in that short space
of time.
Called off the relief pitching lob that
put his name in the AS box score 8
times in II contests, Grove, starting a
game for the first time since May 6,
had no worries after his teammates
solved AL Crowder for five runs in the
third inning. And just to make it
complete, he contributed a home run
and single to the AS 14-hit assault.
Fred SchuNe's double and home run
accounted for three of the Senators
tallies.
MEANWHILE the Chicago White
III Sox continued their terrific
bombardment on ST. Louis pitch
Ing, brushed aside the Browns, 14-7,
and moved into third place, a game
and half behind the Senators and
8 percentage points ahead of the Clevc-
land Indians. The Pale Hose blasted

making his first start since he was
traded to the Sox by Detroit, was wal
loped for 10 hits, including home runs
by Carl Reynolds and Debs Garms, but
was fairly effective except in the ninth,
when the Browns scored three runs.
Vic Frasier, for whom Wyatt was
traded, made bis debut for Detroit,
but failed to go the route, although the
Tigers eventually emerged with an
8-to-7 triumph. Frasier went out at
the end of five innings with the score
to 4 against him and Vic Sorrell re-
ceived credit for the victory earned by
a two-run rally in the ninth. In that
frame, with two men on, Charlie Geh-
ringers fourth hit of the game sent in
the tying run. while the deciding tally
came over on Stones long outfield fly.
Rain halted the only National League
game of the day, with the st. Louis
Cardinals leading the Cincinnati Reds,
Q to 0, after three and one-half in
nings.

 The Inside Track
 The general impression around the capital is that if anybody real ly has the inside track it is the professors.
 That impression has been deep- ened by the Presidents failure to consult oftener with party wheel horses, most of whom don't show much liking for the professors.
 It was many weeks after elec- ton before Albert c. Ritchie heard a word from the President -elect. Since election night MT. Roosevelt has had no communication with Alfred E. Smith, unless it has talk en place very recently.
 Yet the presidential veto of Pro- lessor Moley's London stabilization scheme demonstrates that the President by no means thinks the brain trust infallible. Accumulating evidence indicates he reserves the right. to make his own decisions.
 It is an old trait of MT. Roose- welt to keep people guessing. He made a game of it when he select ed his cabinet, not only with the newspaper reporters but with those immediately involved. Even Farley has told friends he was not in- vited into the cabinet until just before inauguration.
 So there can be little doubt that the present guessing game is some- thing more than mere accident; or that the President is enjoying it immensely.

By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washington

There are so many wheels within wheels in the Roosevelt administra- ton, and they all are revolving so rapidly, that it is no wonder visi- tors to official Washington often go away completely bewildered.
 No other President ever sur rounded himself with so compli- cated set-up. When you speak of the inner circle" nowadays you have to designate which inner cir cle you mean.
 : There is the regular cabinet There is the circle of administra- tors and coordinators, some more powerful than any cabinet member There is the brain trust" com posed of 20 college professor off cials. There is the political inner circle, which includes Postmaster General Farley and Secretary Howe.
 Every one of these groups has a special claim to the confidential ear of the President. Not one seems certain what any other is doing. Many crossed wires are inevitable Washington is as full of rumors as the army was in wartime-which is saying a great deal.
