PunchIess Griffs
BY BURTON HAWKINS

Homicide is being committed
in the American League, occa-
sionally in broad daylight. First
division clubs are numbering the
Senators, over whose dead bodies
are stepping teams with pennant
aspirations. The Senators have
beeen annihilated II times in
Is games with the top four
teams.
The booing is starting early
among normally patient. long
suffering Washington fans. AS
the team dropped 80 and 5-4
decisions to the White Sox yes
terday at Griffith Stadium, a
goodly percentage Of the 1911
customers exercised their throats
in displeasure at Clark Griffith's
employees.
Chief targets of the ominous
sounds were Roy Sievers, whose
batting average has dipped to an
incredible 1923 as the result Of
going hitless in his last "a ap-
pearances, and Eddie Yost, a
stranger to such noises. Yost
made 'em unhappy by failing to
latch on to a couple of grounders
-forgivable sins in both cases
but not regarded in that kindly
light by some citizens,
II Sievers' average slips much
more he'll show a minus pool.
The poor guy has struck out In
five of his last seven official
tries, which hardly is an indica-
ton that he's about to emerge
from his slump.
No Power in Attack
But Sievers' failure to hit isn't
the Senator's lone shortcoming.
Twenty-Five of the clubs last
23-hits have been singles. The
other was a double. Such slap
ping has annoyance value and
once in awhile will win a game.
but not frequently enough to
generate excitement.
Against second-division clubs
the Senators have been more
frolicsome, winning seven and
losing six. That will get them
nowhere, of course, but at this
point it may be encouraging to
them that their next five games
will be with Kansas City and
Boston, also nestled among the
also-rans.
The Senator'S, idle today, will
tangle with the Athletics to-
morrow night and Wednesday,
take a day off Thursday, then
meet the Red Sox in three
game series. If the Senators
hope to rise above their sixth
place status, it's imperative that
they rebound against those less
sturdy foes.
Fitz Takes Costly Stroll
1t was in the midst of heroicS
yesterday, when Washington
was producing three runs in the
seventh inning to tie the second

costly stroll.

To bring out the best flavor

introducing q new kind Of tea
bag. called the "fio-thru" bag.
It's the first revolutionary

American innovation was first

The bag. made Of pure, TASTE

divided into two separate COM

says, permits the boiling water
to flow through an opening in
the center Of the bag as well

water gets to the leaves faster,
releasing the brisk flavor more
completely and quickly.

With plenty Of dollars to
spend on food. Americans ate
well in 1855. We consumed
more meat than ever before

per capita. Forecasts by USDA
specialists predict a continued
abundance of meat for 1856.
All kinds of beef will continue
plentiful, especially the higher
grades. Heavy marketings Of
pork will keep the meat coun-
tiers we'll supplied in January.
The output Of pork for Sc is
expected to be even higher
than last years production.
On the other hand. smaller
supplies and higher prices are
expected for lamb and mutton,
and there may be q slight re-
duction in the veal output next
year.
AS for poultry and eggs, It's
predicted there viii be more
chickens than ever on the
market early in the year be-
cause OF the large number Of
broilers raised last fall. Egg
production will rival that Of q
year ago.
