SENATORS HOT AFTERPENNANT Not Down Hearted A-tull At Beinn kiKirkrd Inlo Third Place Plan Keep Fighting Till September. By JOHN II. FC MTKR I I 1921. H? T:.. AtnKri New York, July. 2?tt-Iq .SCTUFfn/; Rcott from Kansas Cily hi aii effort to fill the gap in the out field. Clark Griffith Ids it he known that he intend* to do everything that Ik humanly pos sible to bring its first champion Ship to the national capital. This man Scott it) a 3-1 hutter. about that. 11c can play right field and ho has been playing it for Kansas City, and he can catch. Griff is not so short 'of catchers that he needs one as urgently as ha needs a day in and day out swatter in the outfield who can hold up his hitting. ft Playing right field for Kamsas City,. Scotl seemed to gel uluug , all right, although Kit Mas City Is not making the headway that it made last year and has changed managers, replacing Good with . Laven, formerly of St. Louis? ? move which may do something and may not. When Scott was needed behind the bat he went in there and did well. He always ,/ound a place somewhere in the batting order and old league . pl?yer? who have -been with Kan sas City sav he Is good enough to make the big show and will play for Washington about as well us ha played for Kansas City. Washington as he has been bat ting for Kansas City. It will raise the total of the hatting figures of the Washington outfield to about 325. which is quite a lift over what Ihey are now. If Wash ington places Scotl In right field. Sammy Rice can' he shifted back to center. The sun may bother Bcott and then ihe best possible arrangement *111 have to be made, but in uny event, the Washington team Is out to obtain all the batting strength it can get. This Is the great season for Washington and the old town lias the pennant fever right. The gtnatn?,? hnvft don i* well In oihe< years hut the team never has shown such a fighting spirit be fore and such a disposition to stick to what It has earned, as it Has this summer. While Washington has been knocked out of lirst place, the team hail been playing champion ship ball, as compared with the remainder of the league, and that means vastly more than holding first place for th? moment, be cause If it is good as It seems to be, It can set hack to the top oigaln. Another fact is evident and that is the anticipation of the Washington Club owners of a fight right down to the end ot September. They seem to figure that no club In their league is likely to bolt away and take a pronounced Vad and that the ad dition of more strength and re serve power to their forces will assist them In sticking lu and fighting It out with New York and Detroit, or any other club that work3 Its way to the top. Mathews camo along and did his ahar^. He Is llk<^ rock candy. good while ho lasts. Lei bo Id Is not heavy enough lo carry the burden bf the fight every day and ltlchhourg. who was sent to Milwaukee, cannot bo recalled, although he is playing good hall out there. So Griffith and his associates had to look elsewhere and in Scott they may have picked up Just the man they need to swing the championship. Now York, July 22. ? Already there are rumblings of football in tbe air. Almost beforo the cx cltemont of our Olympic victories has subsided. we shall bo plumped Into the midst of forecasts for the ?ea*on of 1924. Already ? aomewhat surrepti tiously on the part of several col lege squads -Is more than a lit tle practice In progress. In the coaching school*, "lab oratory work" Is bring tried out. And thin means a great deal to the Insider. At varlouR coast anil mountidn reaorta the thud of the too* of hackfleld men i? heard In punt ing practice. Kickers arc hIho hard at work perfecting them aelves In the tee-loss klckoff. By the end of next month* there will be plenty of material for the football fans enthusiasm. Prospect a of the various elevens will begin to occupy newspapr-r - - columns -Long, given over to row In*, track and other sports, wii'lle" September will see the actual gathering of the clans.

If this idea ? it has been broadened by our athletic authori ties who went to France with th" American team -goes through, the next point to be decided will bp the location.

They are not always out to sell "gas". More often the pumps are there for their own convenience in demon strating cars. Here are men who ccrtainly arc on the inside, men who can judge gaso line performance from A to Z. They want to show up (heir cars to be^t advantage and they know "Standard" Gasoline will do the trick. It's been no easy matter to bring "Standard" to its position of leader ship. It has cost, and is etill costing, everlasting expenditure of energy and money to make it better and still bet ter. Only in that way have we been able to get and to hold the confi dence of car manufacturer, demon strator and general public.
