Relief Stretches Creditable.

Inserted against Cleveland two weeks
ago after the Indians had compiled q
prohibitive lead, Krakky proceeded to
amaze followers of the Nationals, and
perhaps himself, by hurting hitless
ball for the three innings he labored.
That was encouraging.
Two days later Krakky relieved Ken
Chase against the Indians in the elev-
enth inning with the score tied, mute
testimony to the confidence Harris be-
gan to place in him. He pitched q
double to Earl Averill but, with what
resembled the winning run perched on
second, Joe famed the dangerous Hal
Trosky and disposed Of Ken Keltner
and Frankie Pytlak easily. Averill
never reached third and Washington
eventually won. That was an insight
to Krakky's courage
Forty-eight hours later Krakky
pitched again. This time he was
showed in against st. Louis after the
Browns had scored six consecutive
runs of Yves Ferrell, but the blond
southpaw cherished the opportunity.
For five and ne-third innings Krakky
turned them back with one hit, q sim
gle. In the eighth he blew up, but at
least the guy has shown sporadic
promise and Harris is taking him up
on it.
De Shong's refreshing performance,
bringing the Mats only three and one
half games behind the league-leading
but jittery Indians, has given the club
new hope for success on the tour of
the circuit.

harrington stated today. Before it

Committee approved the plan for
baseball's re-establishment. The pro-
gram will start with a freshman team
next season, but the freshman rule
will apply in 1910.

Johnny's readiness is regarded in most
circles as significant, for his name has
been linked with many fabricated deals
and he is regarded as one of the few
players with whom Griff is likely to
part who would be able to lure a
pitcher of any import.
Goose Goslin and AL Simmons are
prey for trading gossip, but since both
are in the twilight stages of their
careers. it is doubtful if any club would
part with any pitcher of caliber for
either or both of them. Harris still was
waiting for call from Griff at press
time, however, and the above trio were
the most expectant of the Mats.

BOB |SPASSED UP:
IN TURN ON SLAB
Poor in Last Two Efforts.
Dizzy Idle Since April.
Yanks Gain Ground.
BY HUGH s. FULLERTON, Jr.

by HUGH B. FULLEkTON, Jr.
If you want the insisde dope on the
major league pennant races the thing
to do. apparently, is consult the doc
tors rather than the club managers.
For two powerful pitching arms. both
Of them sore now, are likely to be the
deciding factors.
The Chicago Cubs prospect Of beat
ing out the New York Giants for the
National League flag depend to a
large extent on the recovery of Dizzy
Dean. Likewise, If the Cleveland In
dams hope to hold their slender lead
over the New York Yankees they'll
have to get lot more service out Of
young Bob Feller.
Dean hasn't pitched since early
April; his arm hasn't shown any i'm
provement, and he was left in Chicago
for further treatment during the East
ern tour that the Cubs opened yester-
day with So victory over the Boston
Bees.
Quiet About Feller.
The Indians haven't ofiicially ad-
mitted there's anything seriously
wrong With Feller's salary wing, but
he hasn't had his stuff the last two
starts. He appeared in relief role
Sunday and was touched for a game
winning homer by Joe Gorden of the
Yankees. When it came Bob's reg
ular starting turn yesterday Manager
Oscar Witt had to try Rookie Johnny
Humphries instead. He was blasted
out in q big fifth inning that gave
Washington 7-6 triumph over the
Tribe.
Meanwhile the Yankees got a seven
run gift from the Chicago White Sox
and won, IA, 70 cut Cleveland's lead
to a half game. The Yanks made five
of their seven hits and all their runs
after two were out and Rip Radcliff's
error had cost another put-out in the
sixth.
The Cubs, looking better short
handed than any able National League
club except the Giants, gained an easy
victory as Tex Carleton held the Bees
to seven blows. That kept them two
games behind the New Yorkers, whose
late rallies beat Pittsburgh, 5-3. Mel
Otis 18th homer and a single twice
tied the score for the Giants.
Bucs Only Losing Visitors.
The Pirates, who dropped back to
fourth place, were the only visiting
team to lose yesterday. The Boston

Joe Keeps Coming Back.

Trials hardly are novel to the az
year-old Lithuanian, for he probably
was granted the briefest major league
trial in history when he went South
with the Nationals two years ago. Sent
in to pitch in batting practice one day,
Krakky had the misfortune to hit Red
Kress in the groin with his first pitch.
Manager Harris Immediately waved
him from the box and a few days later
he was headed back to the minors.
Last year Krakky came back, win
ming four games and losing one for
Washington toward the end of the sea-
son, after winning IA and losing 8
with a weak Trenton team. He def
nitely was stamped as grade "A timber.
Krakky never fulfilled the promise
he had shown last season in training
camp this year. Eventually he was
sent back to Trenton, but here he is
again at another crossroads in his
hectic career.
Tossing out his last appearance,
when he caught the infectious manner
of three predecessors and threw hits
to the Tigers, Krakky has performed
remarkably well for rejected minor
Lacquer.

Manager Bucky Harris abandoned

Krakauskas, Trenton cast-ofi. tomor-
row against Cleveland in his frst
starting role Of the season.
Although Jimmy De Shong breathed
life into the gasping mound corps
here yesterday with an eight-hit, 7-6
victory over the Indians, Harris still
is quaking over the recent sorry show
ing Of his hurlers. and with that in
mind will experiment with Krakky
and Ken Chase, who was slated to
face Earl Whitehill today.
Krakauskas, who has unraVeled
several creditable relief stretches re-
Gently. excluding. of course, partici-
patton in that 1912 explosion with
the Tigers Sunday, is confident he will
make the grade. 1t is a quiet conf
dence. however, for the -boned,
bow-legged boy has had his heart
dented too many times to 60 over
board on q prediction.
Krakky Started Too Early.
MY trouble started back in training
camp" informed Krakky. IT was tax
ing it easy. aiming chiefly to improve
my control, but they told me to bear
down and had TO. Well, I started
throwing fast ones, my arm wasn't
in shape and I was terrible.
Then, too, many people started tell
ing me I was wild and that preyed on
my mind. That's the worst thing in
the world to tell a pitcher If you're
trying to help him. Subconsciously
I dwelled on that and started expert
menting. just as Lou Gehrig did when
he was in that slump.
well, like Gehrig, I've snapped out
of it because I'm back to my old
style after all that experimenting.
Gee, for time was trying everything
and nothing would work. Now my
arms in shape and I think I'm ready
to CO."
Krakky's case is intriguing Farmed
to Trenton early in the season despite
desperate pleas not to be shipped back
to blueplate dinners and long, hot
bus rides, Joe was back shortly there
after again pleading with Prexy Clark
Grifhth. It seems he had run into
trouble with Trenton and, as is the
custom in such cases, Trenton won.
Grit let him stick and now he will
'ahtain the frenziedly relished chance
to come through. .rs.s. -. .-.-

ALLEN SUCCESSOR
NOT YET DECIDED
More Than 100 Have Been Urged
for Place-Resignation Is
Effective Tomorrow

President Roosevelt has not yet de-
clded on the appointment of a sue
cessor to George E. Allen, whose
resignation as District Commissioner
will become effective tomorrow.
The President told his press con-
ference yesterday he has no one in
mind at this time for the post More
than 100 persons have been suggested
for the position. but it is understood
the President has had little time to
consider the list of aspirants because
OF the urgency Of other matters.
Commissioner Allen was out OF the
city today but may be back tomor-
row, it was said at the District Build
ing.
The Presidents lieutenants are CIV
ing careful consideration to the long
list of candidates for the commits
sionership. White House attaches said.
1t Is understood the list will be sub
jected to a process of elimination and
then turned over to Mr.. Roosevelt.
The President also told correspond
ents at the press conference that he
has given no consideration to filling
the two existing United States dis
trict judgeships for the District and
the newly created judgeship in the
Court Of Appeals. He said the Attor-
ney Generals office is studying the
possible nominees for these posts.
Although Mr.. Allen will leave his
post as one of the three members of
the Board of Commissioners, he will
continue as administrator of the Dis
trict Works Progress Administration
