CHICAGO, March 21.-Grain prices
averaged lower both early and late
today, notwithstanding an intermedi-
ate display of strength.
Wheat temporarily recovered after
an opening dip on commission house
buying induced by the continued dry
weather in the Southwest and further
reports of dust storms. Selling at the
start was due to action of the Gov
ernment In releasing Spring wheat
growers from acreage reduction agree
ments.
H. C. Donovan of Thompson g. Nc
Kinnon said: "On' q drive to the
Southwest l found wheat showing
average to above average in condition
through Southwestern and Central
Kansas, but somewhat below average
iE Northeastern Kansas and South
eastern Nebraska. In Western Kan
sas and adjoining portions of other
States conditions are very bad"
The weather map showed precipita-
ton over the Northwest, West and
Ohio Valley, but clear weather pre-
vailed In the Southwest, where mois-
ture deficiency is serious.
Notwithstanding the showers re-
ported in parts Of Oklahoma and
Texas, wheat prices showed rallying
power at the last
Corn developed independent weak
ness because of reports that pasture
conditions were improving. Action of
corn was also influenced by a break
in cotton values.
Wheat closed unsettled, 1s-5s above

Bluege Booed, Fischer Praises Him as Ossie
SpOiIs NO-Hit Game for White SOx Finger

The Washington players who faced
Fischer failed to notice any great
display Of stuff" His fast bali was
"alive," they admitted, but few Of
them were given any curves. As q
matter of fact, Fischer disclosed that
he threw only five curve balls during
the contest.
With Rluege it was Just a case Of
I-seen- my -duty-and-done-it. He was,
however, the first player on either
team to grip Fischer's hand as ne left
the diamond amid big ovation from
the crowd.
Had it not been for Bluege's hit,
Fischer's performance would have
been the first no-hit, no-run game
of the season in the major leagues.
AS it was, the exhibition easily was
the best effort Of Fischer's pro-
fessional career. Carl-christeneo
Charles william-has been winning
pitcher. IN only two of his five and
one-half seasons in the American
League. Counting his one-hit victory
yesterday, Fischer's 1885 record Is
three wins as against four defeats.
He has been one of the most kicked
around hurlers in the league for his
comparatively few years. Fischer
originally was with the Nationals,
who passed him on to st. Louis.
From the Browns Carl came back to
the Griffs, but only to be traded 70
the Tigers and thence to the White
Sox this season. II

In Trouble Only Twice.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

-oR a dozen years an idol Of
l. Washington base ball fans,
Ossie Bluege heard himself
Il booed yesterday by 10000 home
town fans because he made hit.
His hit happened to be a meaning
less blow as far as the first game OF
yesterdays double-header was con-
cerned. But it spoiled a no-hit.
no-run game for Carl Fischer OF
Chicago, and not even the Capitals
favorite ball player could do this with
unanimous approval. How, then, did
Fischer feel about it? 81
"Shucks," declared the White sox
gouthpaw, slipping q bottle of beer IN
his dressing room as Internationally as
q base bag, ''it didn't make any diff
ference to me. As far as I was con-
cerned It was Just like any other ball
game-that is, like any game that
] won.
4 'T knew In the first inning had a
no-hitter, or should have one. 1t was
lust in the air for me. Toward the
end the boys on the bench were not
saying anything to Misrepresentation
of base ball, va know. But gosh.
they didn't have TO do that. As far
as was concerned it was Just
another ball game.
Tough break? Not at all. Bluege
hit the ball on the nose and deserved
his hit. AS long as didn't lose the
arav-s r rY.nzrld Worry"
The former washington pitcher gN

with Johnny Stone moving over TO-
left.
Bucky Harris shook up his lineup
in yesterdays opener, starting Fred
Schultz in left field and putting Red
KreSS on first base. He obtained no
startling results In this tilt, but in the
first base switch at least the move
bore fruit.
Joe Kuhel, taking over his old post
in the nightcap, never looked better,
getting three hits in as many of1cial
times at bat and drawing two passes.
nAY by day jake Powell gets better
~ and better, it seems. He couldn't
star at bat against Carl Fisher in the
opener, but he did take the fielding
laurels by roaming all over center
field in the sixth inning, retiring the
Chisox all by himself on three sue
cessive plays.
Particularly great, though, was
Jake's play on Tony Piet's single in
! the eighth. 1t had all the earmarks
of a grass-hopping triple until Powell
made an in1elder's stop that would
have done credit to Ossie Bluege.
The nightcap was even more Powell
ish. In this he got three hits and
| twice stole second with ridiculous ease.
His steal in the seventh frame showed
base running at its best. So fast did
Jake go down after singing that
Mervyn Shea's throw was high, hur-
ried and into center field. To third
scampered Powell on the overthrow,
then to home on an infleld roller.
One single, one run. Not bad.
RLUEGE has a great understudy in
Alan Strange =. as far as fielding
goes the kid Is one of the
smoothest of all the shortfielders . .
Bump Hadley and Red Kress turned
in a couple of nifty fielding stunts
themselves in the opener after
Appnng had opened the seventh with
a single, Bump grabbed Jimmy Dykes
intended sacrifice before it hit the
ground and doubled Appling with a
heave to Kress and in the follow
ing inning Rip Radcliff opened with
single and Piet also popped up in an
attempt to bunt this time Kress
came running in to catch the ball and
double Radclif with throw to Buddy
Myer, covering first. F. E. s.

Johnson Needs a Cheer
From Fans in Old

BY FRANCIS E. STAN,

donations.
What johnson Is going to get iS q
watch and a scroll, tokens which in
value do not compare with many
others he has received during his 81
years-all with the Nationals-as q
great pitcher But they probably will
mean a great deal more to Walter
than the others. They are meant to.
He was feted before because of what
he was; now because Of what he IS
Better than anything would be q
cheer for the guy when he steps onto
the f1eld-a cheer that is sincere and
comparable to those he used to get
for throwing a ball so fast it couldnt
be seen. In Cleveland he gets only
booes. In other cities no attention u
paid to him.
How about that cheer tOmor-
row, just to let him know
there's always Washington?

ia EAShANSA0 A]s S&es
@wICE cast of by Washington,
spurned by the lowly Browns,
not good enough for the cham
Il pion Tigers and probably
saved from the minors by the White
Sox, a loose -jointed southpaw named
Carl Fischer finally found favor in
the eyes of the base ball gods yester-
day on the sun-baked turf of Grit
nth Stadium.
At least he was their fair haired
boy for eight and one-third hitless in
ningS. Then, as suddenly and unex-
pectedly as he was cultivated by the
diamond dieties Fischer was dropped
and his dream Of 1855 first perfectly
pitched" game was lost.
OSsie Bluege, with the lowest aver
age Of the regular Nationals, hit the
first pitch to him by Fischer in the
ninth for q clean single-a pitch that
was intended to be six inches higher.
But If Bluege spoiled Fischer's no.
hit, no-run game, he couldn't affect
the outcome Of the game. so the
White Sox took the opener Of a
double-header, to o, to gain an even
break for the day.
The nightcap, with the Washing
tons unloosing all Of their pent-up
artillery, was won by the Griffmen in
the lop-sided figures of 8 to 2.
Four Runners Reach Base.
EISCHER'S one-hit performance,
which netted him only his third
victory of the campaign as against
four defeats, was just about the best
IN q pitching way that has been un-
covered in the Florida avenue park
since 1881, when Bobby Burke Of
Washington, another southpaw, held
the Red Sox to no hits in a regu-
1ation tilt
Carl allowed only three other bat
ters beside Bluege to reach first base.
He walked the keen-eyed Sam Hol-
brook twice and the other runner was
Bump Hadley, who gained his base
when Tony Piet made an inexcusable
muff of his easy pop fly.
He flashed fast ball that hoped
Just enough. Washington's batSmen,
who rank near the top in all dia-
mondom, were popping up and flying
cut. Only three assists were credited
to the Sox infield. His mates had
given him a 10 lead early in the
game and that was enough. The
stage seemed set for this lonely left
handler to clinch his place in the big
show for some time to come.
Then came the blow-off, which,
strangely enough, seemed to affect the
most cold-hearted fan more than it
did Fischer. Bluege swung for a pitch
that was meant to be shoulder high
the kind of ball he had been hitting
into the air all day
Instead it was waist-high and was
sent whistling into the outfield for a
clean, long single.

HadIey Also Victim OF Fate.

THERE were booes for Bluege from
the 10000 customers, who not un-
tn late in the game suspected what
was in the making-or almost in the
making. Only by the hair of his
chinny-chin-ch had Fischer been
able to stick in the big time. In his
last two starts against the Nationals,
Tor instance, he had been shelled from
the box in the second inning.
At any moment the vaunted Wash
ington batting attack was expected to
explode and overcome that 1-to-0 lead
that the Sox gained in the second in
ming. Not until Fischer twice was
saved from tough spots did it begin to
dawn on the trade that fame was
beckoning the wiry Chicagoan.
Then there was no limit to the root
ing for the curly-haired southpaw.
Gleefully the spectators watched their
favorites pop up and so partisan did
the hometowners become that they
quite lost sight of the fact that
Bluege's single OF Fischer was not the
only tragedy.
Hurting for washington was man
who deserved q better fate than to
lose his finest effort of the year. It
was Bump Hadley's luck to be tossed
against the Fischer Of yesterday.
