Star Pitchers Chased.
TN the first two games played the
hitless Giants have pounded out 20
hits to the enemy's 10. They have
scored 10 runs to Washington's 3.
Backed up by the brilliant pitching
Of Hubbell and Schumacher, which was
expected. they have taken a two-game
jump in the new Fall series by chasing
Stewart and Crowder, two star pitch
ers, off the reservation. They sent
Stewart scampering to the dugout in
the third inning of the first game and
they sent Crowder to join his baffied
mate in the sixth inning of the second
game.
And for this purpose they used a
number OF instruments that closely
resembled base ball bats-weapons made
from seasoned ash-that for two games
have played a sonorous rataplan upon
the curve and speed of opposing
pitchers.
1t was Mel Otis bat that broke up
the first game. But queerly enough
1t was the bats of every Giant e:-ept

deadly assault on Crowder and McColl.

The Giants came to the Capital

They would like to give Carl a

The most financially hard-pressed
National League club owner would
readily waive the profits accruing
to base ball from prolonged world
series play If assured that the Giants
could make it four straight and
avenge the humiliation heaped upon
the elder circuit by the Yankees in
recent years.
The Senators have been back on
their heels for a number of reasons
since the series started. Their own
pitchers have fallen below expecta-
tions while the Giant hurlers, Hub
bell and Schumacher, have lived up
to the gaudiest Of advance notices.
The American Leaguers have failed
to deliver anything like real hitting
in the pinches, whereas the Giants
have been tearing the cover off the

even themselves.

Mary Ryan, 17-year-old Central High
School graduate, lost her grasp on the
rungs Of ladder running down the side
of a float off Herald Harbor yesterday
and was drowned before companions

through the choppy waters of the bay
to float scme distance away, but the
effort proved too great for her and she
collapsed upon reaching out and grab
bing the rungs of the ladder beside the
wooden platform.
Miss Ryan, with girl companion,
was swimming toward the float with
long, steady strokes when she suddenly
appeared to weaken upon nearing her
objective. She managed to reach the
side of the float after valiant struggle,
but collapsed completely after taking
hold of the lower rungs of the ladder.
A frantic search was started by
spectators, but the body was not re-
covered until an hour later when 1t
was found near the beach by William
Pitner of Herald Harbor.
Miss Ryan, the daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Michael Ryan of the Hamilton

took a small cottage with a number of

She is survived, in addition to her
