anything, and sington hit into a
double play.
For the rest Of the. game the
GriffS could not get a run over.
You almost could hear Groves
muscles squeak in protest against
the torture of working when
they were so tired, but you could
study the face of the grazing
left-hander and see the grim de-
termination to fight it out to a
victory if it took forever. There
was no rhythm in Lefty's pitch
ing style. now. There was no
style. Just courage, stark and
raw.
If you check back over the sit
uationS, you'll see that Washington
might have scored many runs:
certainly enough to win easily, but
Washington couldn't get that hit,
or those hits, even when Lefty
staggered and tangle-footed to and
from the bench. Fifteen GriffS
were stranded. That tells the tale.
In the second inning the Griffs
had men on second and third, but
Grove escaped. In the sixth a fly
by Sington or Travis would have
scored a run. In the seventh Mills
robbed Yves Terrell of a triple that
would have sewed up the game.
Slaves Off Defeat
When the checks were down in
the extra frames, Grove proved
that a tired guy with great heart
can at least stave off defeat.
Jimmy Foxx, pal Of the old times,
hit a home run and scored Cronin
ahead of him to keep the Red
SoX in the ball game.
Monte Weaver, Ed Lnke and
Pete Appleton pitched good ball.
Linke and Appleton were at their
best, and the performances of
the group was most heartening.
And now today, more thrills
are offered. Buck Newsom will
face Yves Terrell in a battle OF
pitchers. Buck modestly ad.
mitted today that four hits
would be all the Griffs will get.
Maybe, and here's hoping for
NewSom's sake that he doesn't
pitch high and inside. The boys
might start dragging hunts on
him.
1t will be a battle all right,
for neither Terrell nor NewSom
spoke to each other yesterday.
If power can win, it's Newsom.
But if head work will win, it's
Terrell.

There will be a page devoted
to the way Lefty Grove fought
against adversely, opportunity and
the Griffs combined, in that epic
of wasted chances at Griffith Sta
dunn yesterday. In the official
records of the game that form
those interesting footnoteS of his
tory, there will be a note that the
teams battled a dozen innings 10
a tie.
Somewhere in the record will be
a note of home run that Jimmy
FoXX Smote into the left center
field bleachers, a truly prodigiouS
blow, and there will be a note of
the ninth inning rally in which
the Griffs escaped defeat.
The main story of that battle
to draw which was called by
Bill MCGOWAN on account of dark
ness, when there seemed to be
enough sunlight to permit an
other inning of this great battle,
will be about Grove. But even
McGowan's decision will be for
gotten.
POurS Ball Through Middle
Lefty Grove started that game,
the great fire.ball king of base
ball. He poured the ball through
the middle and over the corners
in all his pristine glory and power.
For seven innings the Griffs got
only three hits. One of these was
a very lucky hit by Cecil Travis,
which escaped the clutch of Jimmy
FoXx. The other two were doubles
legitimate doubles by Joe
Kuhel.
During the first seven innings
Grove had to handle a couple of
situations and of these, more
later. The trials of Grove started
in the eighth inning. Kuhel
dragged bunt down past the box.
Groves does not cover first base
probably against his guild rules,
so it went for a hit. Stone also
beat out a roller to McNair, a
slow, half topped roller.
That looked very good for
Washington, and very bad for
Lefty Grove. The possibilities
were enhanced when McNair
rushed back into short right
center, called for a ball he had
no right to call, and then let
the ball drop safely to earth.
Three on and one out. There
was situation.
Grove was tired. He labored
and staggered. You could see
him tossing everything he had
into every pitch, and be it said
that he had enough to escape.
Myer struck out and Rick Fer
rell flied out. The crowd gave
Lefty a hand.
All in the Ninth
In the ninth Grove was all
in. and it was fortunate for him
that the Griffs didn't score
three runs, which would have
been enough to win the ball
game. Bluege batted for Linke
and singled. Hill walked. Lewis
put down a bunt which was
good for a hit because Foxx over.
did himself trying for a sensa-
tional play. Kuhel walked as
Grove lost control, and Bluege
scored. Stone was unable to do

Washington baseball will be
graced today and tomorrow, as it
was yesterday, by 10000 of the
Boy Scouts of America, who
honor the Nations Capital with
their presence. President Clark
C. Griffith extended an invitation
to the lads who are here from all
over the country, and the bid was
accepted in the same spontaneous
spirit that it was offered.
A brave showing the lads made
in their uniforms of khaki set off
with flaring bandannaS of red,
or orange, purple, blue and other
colorS. They were loyal guests,
and in the last half of the seventh
set up a great din of clapping
and foot stamping. Few of the
lads came from this vicinity, but
they we're with the home club,
regardless.
Before the game the Scout band
gave a concert, and the youthful
master Of the drum majors baton
was a sensation in his handling
of the stick. Some day he doubt
less will march at the head OF a
college band and enliven a college
football scene.
Eric McNair was charged with
an error on Travis fly for the
reasons that he not only failed to
catch the ball, but he ran off
Cramer and Chapman, both Of
whom could have made the catch
with the greatest Of ease.
Foxx gambled on making a
double play when Lewis tapped
down the first base line. Jimmy
rushed in and tried to scoop up
the ball. He failed in his effort
and then could not get Lewis at
first. A border line play that
was ruled a hit.
Roger Cramer loafed for just a
second on Kuhel's grounder, and
in that second Kuhel was off for
second base. He made it with a
fine slide.
Jimmy Foxx pole-aXed a wallop
into the center field bleachers.
There was no fooling around
about that sock.
Austen Lake, the scholarly COM
mentator Of the Boston American,
is in town with the Red Sox and
will cover the all-star game. Mr.
Lake has Just returned from a
tour of Ireland. His feature
stories of the Emerald Isle com
prise a brilliant chapter in con-
temporary journalism.
Eric McNair came in fast to
make a great play on Viewers
slap over Groves head. That ball
should have been a base hit.
He didn't have much, and flied
to Jess Hill.

cal knockout to Harry Thomas on

ago. Those are his oily two defaetS
since invading the United States.

Bob Tow Looms
Future Great,
SaysChdnp

Bob Tow, the Alexandria heavy
weight, who meets Jorge Brescia,
the big Argentine champion, in
the 1O-round feature match of next
Tuesday nights banner boxing
card at Griffith Stadium arranged
as part of Washington's sports
holiday, is a dangerous puncher
and is due to go up the fiStic lad
der. This is the opinion of
World Light-HeaVyweight Cham
pion John Henry Lewis and his
star trainer, Larry Amadee.
Tow trained with John Henry
last Saturday at Turner'S Arena,
stepping two fast and furious
rounds with the Arizona Negro.
Bob was in there throwing plenty
of leather, and that fast shooting
right that put out Eddie Nader
and Sandy Mcdonald, his last two
opponents, was looming through
Lewis defense plenty of times.
"BOb'S fast for big man.
He gets in there with q quick
punch. I like the way he uses
his right, and he has a mighty
good left, too.
II noticed that he has lots
Of endurance, and that counts
in this game. / believe that if
Bob can 90 after some tough
opponents in the next few
months, he should be right up
with the big shots Of the heavy.
weight division"
Amadee, who helped second Joe
Louis in his world title fight with
Jim Braddock at Chicago, said he
saw Tow fight his way to the top
in the elimination white hope"
heavyweight tournament in the
Windy City. and was impressed
with the way he handled his fists.
Tow, who worked out all last
week at Turner's Arena, shifted
his training quarters to the
Eleventh st. gym. He is sparring
daily with Murray Hammer. the
big, lanky heavyweight, and a
number of other heavyweightS. In
the morning he does road work.
Brescia, the handsome Argen
tine, who has lost but two fights
since coming to this country two
years ago, and who impressed local
fans with a walloping victory over
Marty Gallagher in his local de
but, is due in town either to
morrow or Friday to complete
training. The Argentine and his
trainer, Billy DaFoe. have been at
a training camp in Jersey City for
the last week.

GRIST OF THE GRIFFS

'leather-lunged guy yelled at him:
"K'mawn, All-America. Let's see
whatcher got"
It is doubtful if Kuhel even saw
the third curve that Lefty Grove
tossed his way in the third in
ming.
Cronin made a valiant effort to
hit to right field in the fourth
inning with Chapman on first
base. Fred Sington ran fast,
made a nice catch, and valiant
effort went for naught.
frankie Higgins hit to right in
that fourth frame, however, but
Sington'S fine throw held Foxx on
second. Foxx, it may be said,
forced Chapman at second.
