President to Make Toss.

A ND Franklin D. Roosevelt, Presi-
~ dent of these United States, with
his arm in great trim despite the
weeks lay-off, will formally begin the
home campaign with handsome hurl
of a brand new base ball that never
will get into the game.
Oh, yes, the other club will be the
Red Sox. The same crowd that was
here last week to look at the rain.
The Boston boys are coming down for
a three-day visit.
Now for the pitchers Washington
fandom will look at when the first
home hostilities begin. Walter Stew
art, left-hander, is Manager Joe Gro
nin's pick to commence the flinging
for the Nationals. Manager Bucky
Harris very likely will chuck one of
the Nationals old enemies as his club
faces the club of his home town.
Rube Walberg, southpaw slabman,
who used to do things unpleasant to
wearers of the Washington uniform
when he was with Comdr Mack's de-
tachment in Philadelphia, is in line
for service. And so is Bob Grove, here
tofore a mighty mean man to the Ma
tionals.
Latest advices from the Boston front
say that the master fork-har1d finger
is through, with his sore arm-if he
hand any. Maybe some one told Nose
the arm was ailing and he believed it.
Grove does not bother much about
thinking. But when he is right how
he can pitch.

PUTS CLUB IN LEAD

Braves Hand Giants First

See Yanks Lick Sox.
BY HUGH s. FULLERTON, JR.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

THOSE who predicted the
Chicago Cubs would have
to rely upon their tre-
mendous slugging power
to get into the National League
pennant race evidently over
looked Lonnie Warneke, the tall
highlander from Mount Ida,
Ark.
He has pitched two games so far
this season, won them both and
allowed just two hits, one each to
Cincinnati and st. Louis.
Following up his opening day per-
formance against the Reds, Warneke
turned in the same feat against the
Cardinals yesterday as the Cubs won
the weirdest kind Of game by q Is
to-2 score.
The only blow Lonnie allowed was
q double by Jim Collins in the fifth
which led to the two st. Louis runs.
1t followed a walk to Spud Davis;
then passed ball let Davis score
and Collins reach third. Jim, the
Ripper Tailed after Gene Moore's fly.
Meanwhile the Cubs raped the
brothers Dean, Dizzy and Paul, and
Jim Winford and Clarence Heise, for
% hits including Chuck Klein's third
homer and one by Gabby Hartnett.
The victory gave the Cubs the
league lead as the champion Giants
suffered their seasons first setback
at the hands of the Braves. The
score was 6-5 as Boston raped Freddy
F1tzsimmons freely and held onto its
early lead even after Homer Peel hit
a pinch homer in the ninth.
The Brooklyn Dodgers handed the
Phillies their sixth straight defeat,
to S, collecting their winning runs
on four-run outbrfrst against George
Darrow in the eighth. The Pirates
nosed out Cincinnati, 5-4 in the other
National League contest.
4 CROWD, rather than any par
n ticular game, furnished the
American League feature.
The Boston Red Sox, who have
been cunning for crowd records ever
since the season started, drew q paid
attendance of A 4.631 to Fenway Park
to see them take an 8-to-1 licking
from the Yankees and Lefty Gomez.
Some 5000 more were turned away
as the Sox had reached a new mark
Of $4,000 for six home games.
Fine relief hurting by Buck New
som, who granted only two hits in
2-3 innings, helped the Browns beat
the White Sox, 6 to 5.
The Detroit it-Cleveland contest was
postponed by rain.

Harris Will Play
AS Lefties Hurl

DAvE HARRIS, instead of Jack
- Stone. will be in right field
and batting second for the
Nationals in their home season
inaugural tomorrow, should the
Red Sox employ left-hand
hurler. And it is believed they
will.
1t is not that the left-hand-
swinging Stone, Washington's new
regular outfielder, is bothered par
ticularly by portside pitching, but
that Harris, batting from the right
side, is especially effective against
such slabbing that prompts Man.
ager Joe Cronin to figure on the
shift.
The manager feels that Harris

locked from his hips to the bottom

X|OUR Nationals are back in town

Touring through the first week OF
the infant season the Nationals failed
to set the league afire with their hit
ting or pitching. Nineteen hurlers
were used in the seven set-tos and
in only one did a hurler go all the
way. Right down the line the hitting
was nothing to boast of. Yet the
batters had their moments that indi-
Gated they are apt to break out with
