Speaking at the second annual

Spears told the school coaches that
physical educators will have to do
something in the future about the
fact that a large proportion of our

physical examinations despite the
fact that physical standards have
been lowered since the last war.
We've got 10 re-educate the boys

graduating class of rs boys, out of
whom only two are planning to go
out for football when they enter
senior high. American games are
good. We don't need any trick stuff
Let's Just teach em the games the
way the rules call for them to be

One way we can get more boys
playing football is to do away with

the days when an end would spend

ticing fading against two backfield
men. Now, most ends don't know
what the word fade means. All they

BOSTON, June 23.-Toughest of
their opponents in the East are
Boston's Red Sox, the Mats agree,
and 1t was with some apprehension
that they looked to the four-game
series slated to open here this after
noon
Although ahead of the Boston
band in their duelling thus far-five
games to four-Washington's ath-
letes have a wholesome respect for
the batting power carried by the
Red Sox. Four doubles, five triples
and a home run bounced off Boston
bats in the recent series in Griffith
Stadium, and Fenway Park with its
short left field is rated even a more
favorable field to Manager Joe
Cronin and his flock of right-hand
batters.
The Mats regard the Red Sox as
strong all the way. They rate par
ticularly high the reserve strength
Cronin has at his command. All
around. this series here looms as a
grim tussle to ball club striving to
get back into the American League
merry-go-round before the Western
clubs open their second invasion of
the season in Washington next week.
Will Have to Show Plenty.
Its a big series for u.s." Skipper
Os Bluege commented. Should we
lose more ground here we'll be in a
bad plight. I'm hoping our batting
picks up to the extent that we might
become at least fair run-making
club. Our inability to get men
around the bases is deplorable. We
have our splurges, but too rarely.
We must brace and brace immedi-
ately or face rough shedding.
I'm looking for the field to spread
out considerably in this next inter-
sectional series. So what we accom-
plish against the Red Sox will have
an important bearing on our future
We certainly aren't Understanding
them because of what the Athletics
did here. The Red Sox are dan
gerous and If we are to get by them
we will have to show plenty"
The Mats will have five pitchers
ready for service in the series. Early
Wynn, who blanked the Sox in Wash
ington last Sunday. was expected to
face them in the opening game. In
line back of Wynn are Roger Wolff
Johnny Niggeling, Mickey Haefner
and Milo Candini. The Mats appear
to have the slab strength. AS to
the batting-Who knows?

away in the Mats bats yesterday as
they suffered their first shutout of
the season. Beaten, 40, by New

BOSTON, June 23.-Pitching two
no-hit ball games in less than that
many months is very thrilling, Jim
Tobin, the Boston Braves star
knuckle- -baller, admits but he does
lament that a total of only 4,0o3 saw
him perform those prodigious feats.
| A skimpy crowd of 1855 was al
most lost in the vast Braves Field
stands yesterday when Tobe retired
all but two Phillies during double
header nightcap that was called
after the fifth inning because of
darkness. On April, 81, also here,
only 1,447 cash customers saw Jim
turn back the Dodgers without hit
over the regulation nine-inning dis
tance.
Where we're all the fans, where's
the photographers" the grinning
Tobin wise-cracked when baseball
writer's swarmed in to congratulate
him for his No. 2 no-hitter. They
explained that threatening weather
probably frightened away many of
his admirers and that failing light
had sent the photographers scurry-
ing long before his latest epic was
halted.
Wants Limited Credit.
Never mind how many saw you
do it, you'll go into the record book
with Johnny Wander Nicer, the only
other major Lacquer to turn in two
no-hitters the same season." a con-
soling writer SAID. Then he asked
Tobin, Don't you wish you could
finish up the last four innings?"
No" Tobin replied. Let is stand
as it is. I'm very happy to have it
that way. Let vandy continue to be
acclaimed as double no-hit.' I'm
satisfied to be known as one and
five-ninths no-hit' Tobin."
Any one but this self f-effacing
3l-year-old right-hander probably
would bemoan the fact that he did
not have three no-hit performances
in his 1914 record, for Tobe turned
back those same Phillies with one
hit here on April 23.
Gets Too Little Support.
On that occasion Ford Mullen,
the Philadelphia second baseman,
made the only safety against Tobin
as he used his second start of the
season to gain his first victory.
Tobin turned in a three-hitter while
making his 1914 debut against the
Giants but lost it, due to Mel Otis
one-on homer In the first inning.
Although Tobin has turned in sew
eral other impressive performances,
his current record includes only
eight wins in Is starts. More often
than not, his teammates give him
much too little hitting, as was the
case recently In Cincinnati when
Tobin held the Reds to five hits
while Clyde Shoun was doing no.
hit-no-run performance.

Red Sox Series Vital to Griffs;
BIonked by Zuber of Yunks

York's Yankees, 1t cost them the
series, one game to three. They got
just four hits off Bill Zuber, an old
playmate. Gil Torres got double,
Jake Powell two singles and Stan
Spence one. Not one of the Mats
passed second base. They mu1ed
their best scoring chance in the
fourth, when Spence and Powell sin
gled in succession. But Torres and
Rick Ferrell skied to the left fielder
and Johnny Sullivan struck out.
Dutch Leonard became the third
knuckle-baller beaten by the Yanks
in the series when in the third in
ming he yielded singles to Don Saw
age and George Stirnweiss and Bud
Metheny poled home run into
the lower right-fleld stands. That
was the fourth off Leonard and he
left. AL Carrasquel finished, giving
two hits, both doubles by Rollie
Hemsley. The run of him in the
eighth was due to walk and Sui
livan's wild throw. .s
A rough time was had by pitchers
yesterday in the early going. Leon
ard, covering third during a run
down that eliminated Lindel in the
second. had his right shoulder hurt
as the Yank charged into him. In
the third, Catcher Hemsley threw
a block that toppled zuber, who had
just caught Cases foul bunt, and all
but knocked the pitcher out.
There was some weird baseball by
the Mats. When Strnweiss singled
to short right in the third. Powell,
with never chance to get the scor-
ing Savage. threw to the plate in
stead of second and let the hitter
get an extra base. In the fifth Myatt
mapped far off first and became an
easy victim of Catcher Hemsley IS
throw to the first sacker.
Stirnweiss ran his season stolen
base total to Is in the eighth inning
with a theft of third. Case never
got on to better his II mark.
