NETFANS;D.C.
GIRLS WIN

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
w. Va, July 17.-Barney Welsh,
the Rockville boy who comes to
Washington now and then to win
a tennis title or two, is positively
sensational in the West Virginia
State tournament in progress
here.
Barney stirred q large gallery
yesterday when he smashed his
way to q one7sided triumph over
Bill Lilly, of Beckley, w. Va,
81, 60, in the first round
and then swept the hlghly-touted
Richmond flash, Frank Williams,
jr., out of his path, 60, 60.
Rips EN- Across
The Rockville wizard was ex-
pected to be hard-presSed by the
Old Dominion star but when Bar
ney ripped them across his rival
didn't have a chance.
Four Washington girls gained
the second round with no trouble.
Mary Cootes eliminated Lois Ellie
man, 60, 60. while Alicia
Rodgers handed Helen Tyler a
similar beating. Bobsey Turney
found Wilyena Upshaw, Of Ala
bama, o bit stubborn, winning,
6-4, 6-3, and Sara Moore pro
crossed by q bye.
Champ Advances
Frances Grimes, Morgantown,
w. Va, and defending champion,
advanced over Mrs. HuguS, 6-1,
81. Anthony j. Drexel Biddle
and his son, Nicholas, won over
Lloyd Griffith and Paul Lingo,
As, 60, 6-S. in second round
doubles. The defending mems
champion, Sam Cohn, met defeat
at the hand of Paul Pollard,
Lynchburg, Va, 2-6, 60, 6-3.

simply eat up. It developed that
Myer has very sore foot. and
every move causes real pain. But
as Harris very aptly put the case,
you can't bench your best when
things are going the way they are.
May Shift BIuege
If Myers toe gets worse, the
caper will be to move OSsie Bluege
from shortstop-and that will
hurt-to second, and let Red
Kress play short. KresS, adept IN
most positions, is better at short
than at second.
Dee Miles has a bone bruiSe,
and will be allowed to rest for a
couple of days. Miles is hitting
we'll enough to win regular rating,
but this agent will be interested
in watching him perform against
Cleveland, which is well equipped
with smart pitching. Earle Combs
will never forgive Clark Griffith
if he ever learns that the Old
Fox compared Miles batting
style to that of the Kaintucky
Kunnel.
For the second day in a row
now the Griffs got as many hltS
as their foemen but failed bring
off a victory. In the last two days
the Griffs made "a hits and
cashed them for half dozen runs.
The boys got eleven hits yester-
day, but did mighty little with
them. The attack reached its peak
in the fifth inning when Jack
Stone and Buddy Myer both
doubled, and Heinie Manush
dashed into the ball for three
bases. That salvo produced two
runs.
After the fifth inning the Griffs
got one outfield single, and that
was delivered by Capt. Buddy
Myer.
Helped BY Fielding
The Browns drove through the
last two innings and were helped
no little by the fielding eccentrici-
G1GS O1 C1AG IA4AAAACAA' NOASAAAS"AA
opened the eighth inning with a
single and West was passed.
Hemsley sacrificed. Cliff walked.
At this point Pepper went in to
hit for Burnett.
He hit a grounder down the
third base line that was a set up
double play. Travis grabbed the
ball, missed third base completely
and then threw to the plate juSl
in time to miss Coleman. This
play permitted the Browns to tie
the score, and when Myer missed
possible double play on Horns
by'S grounder, another run regis
tered at the plate.
The Brownie pitching was moth
ing sensational, and four of the
boys paraded. But what Of it?
They won, and now the winning
streak is extended to two games
in a row. And two games, amigo,
is a winning streak for those
Brownies.
Some how or other it seemed
like old times to see Rogers
Hornsby trudge up to the plate in
the pinch and try a cut at the
ball. He didn't get it through, but
he did drive in a run, which is
about all anyone can ask Of a man
in these times.

land Indians FRANK BUCK oNe"l
Hadley's showing against the
Browns was not up to the stand
ard demanded. Protecting one
run lead, the veteran allowed a
single and then proceeded to issue
a base on balls to Lyn Larry. 1t
was at this very point that Har-
ris thumbed him out OF the ooX
and sent in Leon Pettitt and his
fourth lumbar vertabrae.
Hadley has been a starting
pitcher since the start Of the sea-
son. In streakS he has been ef'
fective, but there have been days
when he was anything but effect
i've.
Chief Trouble
His chief trouble seemed to be
in protecting narrow leads in the
closing frames Of q ball game
Harris is seriously considering
using Hadley as relief man until
such time as the pitcher RECEIVERS
his ability to pitch his way out
Of a crisis.
Ed Linke pitched his best game
since joining the washington club
when he faced the Tigers. He was
strong and carried his stuff
through to the finish. This was
true in spite of the fact that Linke
has not recovered the pulse in his
rigth arm. So he may come
through today, and he may weaken
after six innings or thereabout'
If the weather is not too hot he
probably will be all right.
Woes accumulate for Bucky
Harris. Buddy Myer is having
a lot of trouble covering his usual
amount of ground around second
base. He has missed a few plays
that Buddy at his best would

Chattanooga chapter Of the
Washington baseball tribe
has reached a mans estate to us
veterans of the grandstand of
q couple of decades ago, Joe's
prosperous Middle West bust
ness mans appearance doesn'
deceive.
He is still Joe Engel, the
worlds widest pitcher, prankS-
ter, playboy and greatest show
man in baseball; you name your
league.
Joe is in Washington for no
good reason.
That is to say his reason for
being here will be no good for
the staggering members Of the
Washington pitching, catching
and outfield departments who
hang to the club more like an
anchor than like ichen. bar
nacles or leeches.
Brought Net Along
Joe even brought his big but
terfly net up here from Chatta-
nooga with him to nab whom
ever President Clark Griffith
decides to cut asunder from the
main stem of the Washington
baseball tree.
There is an odd thing about
Engel's current visit to pick up
what chips from the old block
he is able. His call is very well
timed. That is to say he comes
around at a moment just after
that other Washington branch
manager has disappeared from
the scene. I refer to Mr.. pa
loodling" Joe Cambria, the Al
bany owner, whose basket

having a great deal of traffic
with each other. In other words,
they are by no means palsy
walsies.
There is no little jealousy be-
tween them over the spoilS which
Uncle Clark Griffith has to
hand out in the way of outdated
playing material or player mate
rial which is not exactly over
ripe, but a bit too green for local
utility.
! Old Lady in Shoe
This situation sort of con-
Stantly keeps Griff in the mid
die, as it were. Like the elderly
lady who lived in a brogan, Griff
is ever SO busy keeping Engel

that he hardly knows what to
do or which way to turn.
The CONSERVATION between
the Chattanooga and Albany
lodges of the house of Griffith
really didn't start over the divi-
sion of favors on the part Of
Uncle Griff, but over an al
legged slurring remark aimed at
Chief Cambria by Chief Engel

Ell En&sim0 M0n0p0lio

datorio de que la Carta Magma no es sino objeto de es-
carnio para los duenos del poder.
Sc dirfa que la Revolution, hecha sobre una base de
promesas de bienestar collective, de distribution de Ia
TERRA y de me%joramiento general, ha torcido adrede ss
destinos hacia una meta diametralmente opuesta. Por-
que en- yez de distribution, Sc ha producido una concen-
TRACTION como nunca Sc habia visto, va sea de poder, va sea
de riqueza. Ash la terra, que fue prometida a todos, ha cal
do en- unas cuantas manos, y para mayor sarcasmo, en-
las mismas manos que empunaron la espada de las lh-
madas redenciones. La revolution Sc hizo dizque para
acabar con un regimen que concentrate todos los hilos
de la poitica nacional, dentro de una hegemonia aplas-
tante. Y la revolucion, despues de darle muchas vueltas
a los conceptos, y despues de lamar muchos vivas a las
~lbertades, paro en- dejar los destinos del pals en- unas sofas
manos, va caducas ahora y vaciantes, por obra de los
amos. Ell pueblo mexicano, al terminar ell periodic de pro-
mesas demag0gicas, vino a caer en- la cuenta de que nj
habia conquistado ningin derecho polftico, nj habia OBJ
tenido un pedazo de terra.
Y no Sc crea que exageramos en- este de la terra.
Bien es cierto que Sc han hecho algunos repartos, 81, pero
en- forma tan necia, que TODD parece indicar una intencion
predeterminada. Como 81 los donantes lutheran espera-
do ell fracaso del agrarismo, en- manos del pueblo, para
justificar su ambicion de acaparamiento. Ell agrarismo
hecho sin m6todo, sin poner en- ell campesino los eleuen-
tos para ell cutiyo, tenia que desembocar EN- una result
tante de fracaso. Y por otro lado, los pocos campesinos
que pudieron hacer prosperar sus parcelas, yease en- 10
que han parade. En- yer como la formation de monopo-
lis les arrebata ell POGO rendimiento que han logrado
arrancar a la sonada TERRA.
La REVOLUTION ha resultado, pues, en- una gran mo-
nopoio. Porque no hay que equivocarse con las distin-
tas denominaciones. Podra haber monopolios del azicar,
de la leche, del ~garbanzo, de las obras pubicas (tengase
presente a la F. Y. Z. S. A. de Aaron saenz), y monopolio
del poder. En- resumen no son sine ramificaciones de
una misma unidad. Ese gran mOnOpoio que unos GUAM
