FR. BABE RUTH does not waste
Nl an ounce Of energy in his ebbing
days of base ball playing.
He is smart hombre. And how he
takes advantage of his years Of expert
ence.
Thrown out at first base, the q,
great man finished his run at
first base coaching box, thumbed
Cy Perkins, the coach, to the
bench and took over the coach
ing. 1t was two out and Babe
was saving the steps from the
dugout to his post in right field.
When the hurler halted in his de-
livery yesterday the gsm, when at bat,
quickly stepped into the shade of the
stands until the pitcher was ready for
action.
Babe never misses an opportunity to
rest his legs during ball game
Gehrig, too, is following the great
mans tactics. With little pressure
he would have scored of third yester-
day. But rather than spend the extra
energy ON a hot day he let the next
man pole him in walking.

Too Hot Now to Worry.

7 4 LII of which may not appeal to the
~ second-guessing fan who insists
that the Nationals must come
through with every game in this big
series with the Yankees that was due
to end this afternoon. Second guessers,
though, do not play the game on the
field. That's something strictly up to
joe Cronin and his aides.
After all, the Nationals have licked
the Yankees in out of the 13 tussles
they have had with one another this
season. And they're still leading in
the race for the American League pen
nant by two games.
So why get worked up over fourth
licking handed the Washington club
by its closest contender for the cham
pionship? It's too hot, anyway. and
besides the season Is no more than two
thirds gone. Much water can flow un-
der many bridges before it ends.

7 T was a busy week end in base ball
the most eventful and exciting
the major leagues have gone
through this year.
Dizzy Dean of the Cardinals shat
tered the modern major league strike
out record with the greatest feat in
that line recorded in more than 40
years, whiting II of the Cubs as he
won the opener Of yesterdays double
header, 8 to 2.
The Yankees came back to trim
Washington, to 2, and cut its Amer
ican League lead to two games.
P1ttsburgh's Pirates tore past the
houndering Cubs into second place in
the National Saturday, then went ON to
reduce the Giants lead to three and
half games. The Cardinals, by winning
both games yesterday, also passed the
Cubs. taking third place by one point.
Rogers Hornsby took active charge as
manager Of the ST. Louis Browns and
saw his team run into the end of the
White Sox losing streak and take
double drubbing. The Sox, who had
dropped nine straight games, broke
loose with 34-hit attack, won the first
game, 8 to Z, in 10 innings, then blasted
out 1872 victory in the nightcap.
Record for Wilson, Too.
NEAN'S feat was by far the out
standing individual feat Of the

The second game Of the twin bill was
an anti-climax as the Cards edged out
SIS victory to go point ahead of the
Cubs, who lost their sixth straight game.
The Pirates had couple of narrow
escapes against Cincinnati, but came
through with a pair of ninth-inninR
rallies to extend their winning streak to
seven games.
The Braves, meanwhile, cut down the
league leading Giants by 5-3 count as
Ben Cantwell pitched steady ball and
Randy Moore hit a homer to break

Many among the $4,000 in
Griffith Stadium-the greatest
throng to attend a ball game
there this year-professed to be
mystified when Cronin withdrew
Earl Whitehill, starting pitcher,
in the sixth inning with one Yank
out, one on and the score tied.
Many wondered at the subStitu-
tion of Bob Burke at the outset
of the eighth inning for Jack
Russell, Whitehill's successor, who
in the seventh had yielded the run
to put the New Workers ahead.
Still more were puzzled by the ofIense
changes the Washington pilo. MADE in
the Nationals seventh batting turn
when Sam Rice was sent in to bat for
Russell. who had come back well after
being nicked for the Yanks' third run,
and Dave Harris was chosen to bat for
Buddy Myer, who in his previous turn
had slapped one for three BASES.
These several moves by. Cronin did
the Nationals no good and gave the
second guesSers a lot of leeway to
sQuawk about his handling of the club.
Yet, after all, he had his reasons, and
sound ones, for what he did.
Let him tell it, even though he need
not make any defense.

= o long as the Yankees have Rus
sell Van Alta to send to the
\ pitching peak they'll have a
great chance to cop their annual
series with the Nationals, even though
before todays contest it was against
them, nine games to four, with nine
to go.
This young left-hander has hurled
the New Workers to three of their four
victories over the Washington club He
has been beaten by it only once And
in the four games he has faced them,
the Nationals have collected but seven
runs
Van Alta was better yesterday as he
pitched his club to a 7-to-2 victory
than at any other time against the Ma
tionals and that despite a flinging arm
still sore from an injury inflicted when
struck by batted ball recently. He
held them to eight hits spread over as
many innings and yielded but one pass.
For a time it seemed he might sue
cumb to the terrific heat. Throughout
about the mound as though ready to
give up any moment. Then he 'braced
perceptibly and finished breeMngly.
Van Atlas was just about the great
est individual effort of this hectic series
between the Nationals and their great
est rivals
Griffs' Errors Costly.
TT was remarkable that the Ma
tionals managed to keep the game
as close as they did for six innings
Their defense was spotty and so was
their pitching Earl Whitehill, who
started, was hit safely in all but the
fifth frame The heat finally got him
in the sixth and he had to give way to
Jack Russell. This lanky highlander
was in only one and two-thirds innings
to take the beating. Then after Bob
Burke got in a bad spot through no real
fault Of his own in the eighth, AL
Thomas came on to throw a flock of
runs into the laps of the Yankees and
the ball game was gone beyond recall.
All told, the YankS helped themselves
to II Safeties. But they really earned
only two Of their runs. Errors by Cos
lin, Schultz and Thomas helped them
plenty.
That homer hoisted over the right
field fence in the second session was
the eighth Of the season for Joe Kuhel.
He leads the Nationals at socking for
the circuit.
Babe Ruth suffered an odd accident
In the sixth. As he drove the ball down

Plain Facts From CrOnin.

Joe after the game. 'All
the Yankees got off him in that time
amounted to four hits and one run.
And that run came from a very fluky
hit. But Earl was plainly firing in the
fourth. The extreme heat was getting
him. He managed to carry on for ice
packs put on his head by Mike Martin
revived him to some extent
But he admitted he was wabbly
when he went out for the sixth inning.
I had told Russell to be ready for an
emergency before We took the field for
the sixth and when I sensed that Earl
was pretty we'll weakened by the heat
! figured it best to change.
Shifting from Russell to Burke at
the start of the eighth inning certainly
seemed fair move to me- Cronin de-
clared. There were two left-hand
hitters coming up, Ruth and Gehrig.
What was more logical than to bring
in a left-hander at such stage of a
close game? And it would have worked
well, too, had not Gehrig managed to
head. Had Ossie been able to grab
that pop Ruth would have been doubled
off first base and very likely not run
would have been scored in the inning.
We still would have been in the ball
game"
That planned switch from Russell to
Burke accounted for the use of Rice at
bat in the home sides seventh, Of
course. Cronin needed no explanation
for this move. AS to the substitution
of Myer for Harris, there was word
due from the manager. Buddy had
done WELL" Joe admitted. but figured
a right-hand hitter might be better to
send against the left-handed Van Alta
at the time We had a runner on third
base with two out and needed run to
tie. Harris had been effective against
left-handers, SO played hunch.
1T didn't work. But under similar
circumstances I'd do the same thing
again"

TWO SPEAKERS
 STRESS ST KONG LOCAL POSITION
Gov. Parks and pr. Torbet Tell Chamber Local Peo-
 pie Are Fortunate

Two speakers at the weekly meet ing of the Chamber of Commerce today congratulated local business men on their good fortune of liv- ing in Alaska and especially in Juneau. Both Gov George A. Parks and Rev. Walter Torbet, superintendent of the Methodist Episcopal missions in Alaska, em- phasized their own conviction that Juneau doesn't know from per- sonal experience anything about the current depression.
 The Governors 60-day visit to the States, during which he ob- served conditions from the Pacif- ic to the Atlantic and in the Southwest, proved to him that AL aska is much better situated than any other political subdivision of the county.
 Free From Debt
 The Territory, he pointed out, is not only free from public in- debtedness, but it also has cash surplus in the treasury. And it has not been forced to suspend any of it's necessary functions.
 Most of the States and their counties are loaded down with debts which they cannot pay. Many of the ordinary functions have been discontinued and all over the country schools have been forc- ed to close down as last resort to achieve economy.
 We do not owe anyone a dollar and have few dollars in the treasury" he declared, "and if we continue the policies adopted and carried out during the past 20 years, we are going to be much better off in the end than a ma- jority of the other political sub divisions of the country"
 Finds Alaskas Friends
 At the annual American Game Conference sessions which he at- tended in New York, he was agree ably surprised to find large num- Der of friends of the Territory among influential conservationsts. leaders in the movement for wild life protection. They had a much more comprehensive knowledge of conditions here and local conser- vation problems than he had be- lieved possible, and were really sincere in their desire to cooper ate with Alaskans along the lines they are already following in this work
 The Governor attended many of the committee meetings and spoke at the annual banquet of the Conference.
 He saw many former Alaskans and nearly all of them were real ly anxious to return to the Ter ritory.
