6 R HODAPP, STEWART BECK AND HIGGINS IN STELLAR ROLES Charley (Rufus the Red) Ruf- fing Wins Own Game in Ninth With Homer SENATORS BOW TO GROVE Lou Gehrig Gets Second Home| Run in as Many Games to Give Pitcher Chance By HUGH 8, FULLERTON, JR. (Asscciated Press Sports Writer) Judging from the earliest returns, the major league ball clubs accom- Plished a few good strokes of business | ‘in their dickering in ivory during the | winter. Already a good many of the! players who shifted their allegiance in the off-season have had opportun- ites to shine for their new clubs. In the first couple of games Friday | Lindstrom, Babe Herman, Al Sim-! mons, Sam West, Carl Reynolds. | Jimmy Dykes, and a few others who! figured in the! winter trading got in some heavy | stickwork; Eddie; Durham, _ Earl) Whitehill and oth- ers displayed ex- cellent pitching form; the Brook-} lyn acquisitions, Jake Flowers and Joe Judge, did some snappy field- ing along with the Athletics’ collec- tion rookies, who didn’t do much else in their first two games against Washington. | A couple of other recruits came out | into the spotlight Friday to show that | they, too, may figure in the battling for the two pennants this season. Beck Pitches Brilliantly Only three games eseaped postpone- ment but they saw Walter Beck, Brooklyn's big recruit from Memphis pitch brilliantly in his National League debut; Frank Higgins of the Athletics | add his name to the home run list on his third day in the big league; Wal- ter Stewart, formerly of the Browns, give Washington some more good flinging and Johnny Hodapp, who was with the White Sox last year, con- tinue his effective work for the Bos- ton Red Sox. A couple of veterans, however, put on the real show of the day as Lou Gehrig and Charley (Rufus the Red) Ruffing combined to give the New; York Yankees a 6-2 victory over Bos- ton. Ruffing, locked in a flinging duel . with Bob Weiland in which each al-; lowed five hits, saw the game go into i the ninth inning tied at 2-2 due to; Gehrig's second homer in two games. Considered the greatest hitting pitch- | er extant, “Rufus” took things into his own hands after an error and two walks had crammed the corners with two out. He smacked Weiland’s first Pitch into the bleachers for a homer that ended the game. Hodapp Drove in Both Hodapp, who helped the revived Red Sox make things tough for the world’s | champions in the first game, drove in| ‘both Boston runs Friday. Beck's feat consisted of holding the heavy hitting Phillies to seven hits and whiffing five ot them while the Dodgers hammered out a 7 to 1 vic- tory. Most of Brooklyn's 15 hits were made off Austin ‘Cy) Moore, a former Dodger who went, to the Phils during the winter. Robert Moses Grove, the Athletics’ | Stellar southpaw, d the Senators’ | bats after two straight victories and gave the rebuilt Mackmen a 5-to-1 triumph. He gave only six hits, and pitched shutout ball up to the last in- ning. Stewart pitched well in his first start for Washington but didn’t have | a chance as Higgins, the young third- | sacker up from Portland, nicked him for a homer in the fifth and Jimmie, OUT OUR WAY of T Kwow, BUT youre) GOOD NIeHT ye OFF THis Ween, PAY THEY/ CONT ALLOW NO LOAFIN’ AROUND TH SHOP— YOu MUSTA CLUMB OVER ookies and Veterans | Grabowski and Davis.
