This was the expert deposition Tuesday, straight from the locker rooms, as the nation’s host of { Pro stars rested between practice rounds to discuss the pitfalls along the golden trail which they annually trod. “You've got to go after those birdies,” piped up Leo Diegel, “if you want a slice of that money.

He still is the toughest batsman in the league to strike out. The official averages, made pub- lic Tuesday, show that Sewell, for third time in his major league career, struck out only four times in 135 games, leading the American League for the 10th season. Last year he fanned only three times in 124 games, and was cut down four times in 1925 and 1929. He played in 155 games in 1925, and 152 in 1929. He was reported, along with Herb Pennock, during the recent major jeague meetings, as having been re- leased by the Yankees. The New York management, however, later said both players still are members of the club. Jimmy Foxx, who led the league in batting, also was the leader in driv- ing in runs for the second successive season. His war club sent in 163 scores, with Lou Gehrig of the Yan- kees accounting for 139 for second place. Three vlayers, Babe Ruth, Mickey Cochrane and Max Bishop of the Athletics, received more than 100 bases on balls. As usual, Ruth led in free transportation with 114 walks, while Cochrane and Bishop received 106 each. Minneapolis Mauler Kayoes Californian Hollywood, Cal., Dec. 19.—(?)—Art!

The principal shadow-casters are Primo Carnera, Max Baer and Barney Ross, Carnera has the heavier sha- dow to cast because he happens to be heavyweight champion (that’s the title Jack Dempsey used to cherish, by the way) and must meet Baer, who casts a shadow both active and ata- vistic.
