GRIFF STADIUM

SCORING DEVICE.
By FRANK BUCK" o,NEILL

BY FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL
II . satisfactory agreement can
be reached between the Washing
ton Baseball Club and a promi.
nent advertiser and distributor Of
a popular product, Griffith Sta
dunn next year will boast the
finest and most modern score
board in the country. Negotia-
tons are reported to have reached
q temporary impasse, because Of
financial considerations.
The new board, according to
q source Of information that. this
writer considers entirely reliable,
will carry the scores Of both
leagues, the batteries and all
other information pertinent to
important games. A special space
will be set apart on the board to
record runs, hits and errors Of all
games, q feature which would
please many patrons Of the GriffS.
According to authentic sources,
it would cost about $500 to in
stall the proposed board, which
would beautify the property in
addition to adding to the con.
venience and enjoyment Of the
public. The equipment includes
. gridgraph to be used during
football season. A field telephone
running to the board, will enable
the operator to post the numbers
Of the men carrying the ball or
figuring in pass plays.
II you want the tip off on
the Griffs, you may get 1t from
this: In the sixth inning they
got three hits for one run. In
the seventh they did the same
thing, and in the eighth they
got two runs on four hits. Elon
Hogsett stopped them dead.
"That was . long fly for .
Ieft-handed hitter" observed .
press box critic when Stone
sent VOsmik to the fence.
Quite true, but 1t dies with the
catch.
Lou Koupal was a very timely
hitter. He dropped a lazy single
in center field that scored two
runs in the second inning.
Appleton was well socked by
the Browns before Linke came
to the rescue with two out in
the fifth. The blow that put
Pete down for the count was a
triple BY Harry Davis.
Beau Bell risked injury in the
fifth inning to make q great
catch Of Miles foul fly. He
skirted the right field pavilion
boxes.
The Yankees put on two innings
that were interesting, even at q
distance. They punched four runs
in the fifth and then blasted
through for eight TALES in the
sixth.
Travis went right along on the
hit trail. getting two blows in three
times at bat, up to and including
the last Of the sixth.
"When KOupal beats the
Griffs there's nothing to do but
leave town." This heartfelt ex-
preston came from . fan leav-
ing the Stadium yesterday. 1t
is barely possible that the man
has something in that thought.
Lewis socked the daylights out
Of the ball in the sixth inning, the
drive being good for a triple.
Travis then slithered a ball past
Carey for his second hit Of the
day.
Walt Miles is moving right
along in fine style. He beat out
another bunt, which is something
for a catcher.
