The Griffs, as is pretty WELL
Gnown, have been losing quite
regularly for the past three or
four days. They haven't been
hitting and the pitching, as a
result, has been forced to look
quite off color.
Yesterday, against the AS in
the second game Of this current
series, General Alvin CroWder,
for the first time this year, ap-
peared off form out there on
the mound.
Whatever the reason happened
to be, the veteran had to be re-
1ieved by Bobby Burke, and
Bobby, buckling down to his
work as if it was a world series
game, proceeded to turn in one
Of his best efforts in seasons.
He took Crowder's place on
the mound in the sixth after the
General had walked both Hig-
gins and Williams, the first men
up for the inning. Cain, the
first batter to face Bobby, laid
down a pretty bunt, advancing
Higgins and williams a base.
Here, Bobby took matters into
his own hand by striking out
the dangerous Max Bishop, and
grabbing Roger Cramer's tap and
throwing him out at first to re-
tire the side-scorelesS!
Wait! This is not all. Bobby

been noticeable when the Grifts
have needed those precious base
hits in the pinches.
Manager Cronin, in an effort to
help get his team out of the
doIdrums, has employed a differ
ent batting order in the last two
games, but still his men have con-
tinIled to lack that something up
there at the plate when those
emergencies have arisen.
just when the sad situation will
end, nobody. not even Cronin can
tell now. Nevertheless the youth
full manager still has his players
on their toes plugging away with
the thought that things will begin
to break in every way soon.
Players Hopeful
And the players, although hope
full and ever waiting, are wonder
ing when they themselves will
snap out of it and begin to hit
the ball like they know they can
and should.
Having failed to accomplish
what they set out to do at the
start Of this series against the
A'S-and that to take two games
at least-the Griffs directed their
thoughts to winning today's final
Of the Philadelphia series and
then grab at least two Of the
three games scheduled with the
New York Yankees in q series be-
ginning tomorrow at Griffith Sta
dium.
Prof. Monte Weaver was due to
get today's assignment in the
finale against the AS while EaZl

"took" Connie Mack'S team in
one-two-three order in the sew

on Higgins bunt, which the lat
ter managed to beat out by a
fast sprint. This did not un-
settle Burke, however, as the
side was retired several moments
later with another scoreleSS in
ming charged against the AS
space on the score board.
Pitching of this sort and Burke
will surely be a great help to the
Griffmen as the season goes on
it's way. Yesterday his work
proved to be the silver lining to
that dark cloud which seemed to
hover over the entire team, once
the AS took their lead-never to
be caught.

lily built Highlander, hurled the
entire game for Connie Mack'S
team. The GriffS combed him
for eight hits during the nine in
nings, but none of these came in
the pinches when hits would have
meant much needed runs. The
lone Griff score came in the third
when Buddy Myer, leading off,
soaked a homer over the right
field wall.
Manush Gets Three
Heine Manush collected three
of his teams eight bingles. One
was a double in the first inning
while the other two were singles
coming in the seventh and ninth.
The AS reached General Alvin
Crowder for two walks, a Sacri-
flee and a single for one run
in the first while the two which
gave them their margin came in
the third on walks to. Bishop
and Cochrane, Foxx's single and
Finney's double. It was the worst
pitched game, from Crowder's
standpoint, that the Griffs have
received during their current
slump-the weak of the having
marred the chances Of winning in
the past.

just what has hit them outside
of the fact that they haven't been
hitting is an item of extreme
mystery to the entire roster at
this important hour of the season.
Since week ago yesterday, the
team has done nothing but lose
games, and, although the actual
total is just four, it appears even
worse than it really is because
these set backs have come at a
time when victories would have
meant so very much. especially
with the New York Yankees win
ming quite regularly and getting
off to another great start all the
while.

Counting yesterdays encounter

Alvin Crowder, supposed main

these four contests in this current
Griff losing streak. Earl White

other was lost by Walter Stewart
day before yesterday in that 8-to1

The pitching in all of these

Crowder's efforts yesterday, has
been good, let it be said. But the
hitting has been far off form.

him out.
When the cross-examination of all
the defendants was concluded, vi
shinsky requested, and was granted
permission to make a statement on
this subject, in view of the above
mentioned assertion by Monkhouse,
and in view of the campaign ia
slander Soviet justice through the
spreading of this and similar false
hoods.
He then made public the records of
the GPU prison where the defendants
have been held for the preliminary
examination. These records, as l
wired yesterday, showed that during
two days Monkhouse had been in the
prison, the longest day of question
ing, which included time for Monk
house to write out his dispositions in
his own hand. plus an hours recess
each for lunch and dinner, lasted
twelve hours; showing that at no
time did the actual questioning last
longer than about two or three hours
at stretch. Dazed by this irrefut-
able record, MonkhouSe ATTEMPTED a.
lame explanation that in the GPU
prison he had no watch, and could
not tell how long the questioning
lasted.
Whereupon Vishinsky shot back the
questlon-how did Monknouse know
that the questioning lasted for twelve
hours, If he had had no watch.
Monkhouse in the END was forced to
admit his misstatement, and grudg-
ingiy apologized to the Court.
