Against Hoston, he drew How ard Khlnke, aro of the Ited Sox staff, and lost 2-0. For seven In nings the two .teams went, rimless.

Sava the veteran umpire to the seldom-used utility outrielder: ''Cloori or bad, I'm In the game every day Nobody knows you are iu the league. You play so seldom they don't even carry your name In the uversges. "And IC 1 didn't make more and butler use or my Indicator than you do or that ornamental glove, I'd throw it away." That ended the dialog. WHAT AII.EP RTRIH? What, ailed Young Htrlbllng In hlK bout with Paul Herlcnburh? It Is doubtrul ir any challenger ever ninde a poorer right than did the presence or Hcrlcn'Mch In tlm heavyweight champion, "Nothing ailed strlblli.g except the presence of Rrrlanbacli In the aame ring," Is the explanation Jack Delaney offered to mo the other dny In discussing the right. ...

No better example or that truth could he otrercd than the Wash ington club or the American league. Stanley Harris won pennants In 1D24-26 because a veteran pitch Uitf slnrr, Wiled and abetted by one or the best rellfer pitchers In Iho history or the ' gnttic", -Frefl"'Ma'r' berry, delivered ror him1. This yenr the Washington club has railed to live up lo expert opin ion, hecnuse the pllchlng or the veteran stars has temporarily ral tered. Over a stretch or a dozen games recently not n starling pitcher vus able to finish his hall game. It is worry of Unit sort that makes gray hairs ror a manager and destroys the morale or the club. Washington' still hns a mighty pert hull club and when II gctH good pllchlng Is bard to beat. If warm weather ever arrives It Is just possible that the veteran pitch ing Starr will show a reversal of form. If so Washington will make plenty or trouble in Ihe kite stages or the race YACHT RACF l)l.( ll)l:i) HONOU'M', June 26.
