Batting Race Promises Much.

WHILE Buddy Myer and Joe Vosmik
w have been battling each other
for the American League batting lead
during the Cleveland Washington Sc
ries, big Hank Greenberg of the Tigers
stepped in to assume the leadership
with a pace of .345. Greenberg made
three hits In four trips yesterday.
So did Myer, though, while Vosmik
dropped back to .344 by going hitless
for the second straight day. Myers
average now is .342 and one of the
closest races in years may be looked
for as the trio enters the final Is
days of play.
Buddy made two of his safeties
yesterday of Thornton Lee, south
paw who is pretty tough on left-handed
batters. One was topper toward
third and the other clean smash to
center. In his only trial against Oral
Hildebrand, o right-hander. Buddy
slashed another single.

TROUNCED CARDS
FEEL CUBS CLAWS
Dropped to Near-Tie With
Chicago by Giants-Yank
Flag Chance Fades.
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON. JR.,
Assoriatad prees coorts uyritar

THE Giants and the Cardinals
have learned to their sorrow
that there's such a thing as
L trying too hard and as result
of their efforts both were in a bit Of
a hole today, while the Chicago Cubs
were only a short hop away from the
National League lead.
AS a matter of record, the Giants
won the second game of their critical
series with st. Louis. Is to 10, in 10
innings and returned to the place
where they started. three and one
half games behind the lead.
More to the point. however, were
the facts that the two clubs played
anything but championship ball. made
nine errors between them and sent
nine pitchers to the mound in vain
efforts to check the carnage.

Dir Beaten in Tenth.

THE elder Dean. brilliant victor in
the opening encounter, was the
victim of New York's three-run tenth
inning rally that settled the game.
He gave up three hits, the last ring
ing double by Frank Gabler, New
Yorks fifth finger, and saw one costly
error made behind him.
The outburst came after the Cards
had lost an early So lead as the
Giants belted out a total of 20 hits,
rallied to tie the score and survived
an amazing ninth-inning exchange in
which each team scored four runs to
prolong the affair.

Griffs Win Fourth Straight.

WHILE there never were any serious
w doubts as to his hitting ability
unless it was over a sustained
stretch-Bolton even has surprised in
this respect. In his first full season
as No. l catcher of the Nationals
Bolton today boasts 800 pace for
81 games to lead all regular receivers
in the American League.
He is the third leading batsman on
the extensively strong Griffs, trailing
only Capt. Buddy Myer and Jake
Powell.
In the Nationals fourth straight
victory yesterday. a 5-to-3 decision
over the Indians. Bolton shared bat
ting laurels with Myer as Bucky
Harris toSsers again came from be-
hind to win. 1t was Bolton who
finally put the Griffs ahead in the
sixth inning with a singing single
after they had wiped out Thornton
Lees 3-to-0 lead with an attack
which brought Oral Hildebrand into
the game as relief pitcher.
Another encouraging note was
struck when Lefty Leon Petit did
some relieving for the Griffs. Bump
Hadley gave up the Tribes three runs
and might have been nicked for more
when Petit was waved in the box
with one down in the sixth and two
Indians on base.
Petit turned back the next two
batsmen in order and then easily set
down the remaining nine Tribesmen
without giving up a hit or q base
on balls.

RECEIVER BLASTS
CRITICS. OPINIONS
Cliff, Poorly Rated, Quits
Injured List to Become
Star BaCkStop.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

IF, AFTER all these months, you're
in a pitching mood as far
as the Nationals are concerned,
Il how about making sure the man
in the mask gets a bouquet all for
himself?
It's 40 crime not to have noticed
the gent doing Washington catching
as the Griffs gleefully gallop toward
fifth place in last-ditch fight Cliff
Bottoms that way. You never notice
him, particularly, but quietly and
efficiently the stocky Tarheel has been
doing his part.
He is the same fellow who would
never make big-league catcher, &C
cording to the critics. For several
years Bolton has been a pretty handy
fellow to use as pinch-hitter, but
when Luke Sewell was sold down the
river last Winter critics publicly wept
and Capital base ball fans shook their
heads.
A few even looked toward Clark
Grifith's Office and rendered a Brook
Ign burp or two.
Rates BENEFIT OF Any Doubts.
BOLTON still is not the catcher that
Luke Sewell is, or was, at any
rate, but until a better backstop comes
along the sluggng southpaw will fill
his shoes. Those who moderated the
stocky North Carolinian as a receiver
might we'll dwell a moment on the
Griff's four-game winning streak and
their six victories in the last nine
games. Bolton caught eight OF these
games and every one of the winning
Tits.
Unless the import; nee Of a good
catcher suddenly has dropped, then
Cliff must be given the benefit Of any
doubt as to the part he played. Sim
liar proof of the young mans receiv-
ing ability may be added when 1t is
recalled that much of the dolorous
play of the Griffs during the previous
portion of the season occurred when
Bolton was not in the game.
From tim to time Bolton has been
on the shelf from injuries ranging
from fingers broken, split or mangled,
to a smashed toe. and these absences
hurt. Far better than words, the fact
that he has been behind the plate
during the last 10 days bears this out.
Bats .345 During Streak.
GAM HOLBROOK, who did most OF
- the catching during Bottoms vari-
Gus periods of idleness. lacked the
experience and the punch of Bolton.
Jack Redmond received very little
chance. but in those games he did
catch, Jacks lack of a batting punch
didn't make him Bolton. Not until
Bill Starr Joined the club from Harris
burg did the Washington catching
really pick up, but Starr. while a
capable receiver, is not much OF a
hitter.
In spite of his enforced vacations,
Bolton never has appeared to suffer
much from lack Of work. He hits his
stride in a couple of days and never
was this more emphasized than by
his latest return on September 6 after
a fractured finger had healed.
Held hitless the first day he re-
turned to action, Bolton since has
pounded out the ball hard, with the
result that during the Griffs' current
winning streak-which, incidentally.
is at a new high for the season at
four in a row today-he has batted
at a .345 cliD,

the amateur cognomen attached to

from this club, they have fine and
intricate machines capable OF doing
everything from burning out news

Little is more a favorite than he was

Goldman of Texas by 8 and at
Brookline. This year his final round
opponent is little more of threat,
for Walter Emery. the same kid who
played in the intercollegiate at Con-
gressional, can produce some hot golf.
But they don't seem to do it against
Lawson Little. John Goodman. good
as he Is. couldn't produce it yester-
day, even though he did manage to
get level with Lawson at the twentieth
hole. But he took the other at the
thirty-third hole, which is consider
ably further than Emery figures to go
today. On that same hole Emery
snuffed out the title aspirations Of Joe
Lynch, the grinning, cherubic-faced
ex-Hoya star.
Cold, raw figures Of what happened
in the semi-final yesterday tell of what
probably will happen today. Just as
the big bad wolf from California did
last year, he Is doing again this year.

again this year, barely getting by his
first match. And he has been getting
better ever since. He played SO holes
yesterday in six strokes under par, five
under in the afternoon, where he
needed three pars for a 81. At the
same time Emery cooled off from the
heat he has been under to polish off
Joe Lynch with 33-hole score, over
par. Ten strokes difference over SO
