Foxx, the home run ruler for the Yast two seasons, connected for his first. 1934 homer in the second inn- 4ng of the diamond Donnybrook which gaw the Yankees square the series with an 11-to-5 triumph over the Athletics. He repeated the feat in the fourth frame, again with empty fases, while the Babe bided his time ‘until the eighth, then outdid his rival's efforts by poling a mighty clout clear across the street to a porch roof, houncing the ball into an open win- dow of a house. Chick Hafey of Cincinnati and Zeke Bonura, the White Sox rookie first- baseman, also fabricated two homers apiece while Chuck Klein hit his sec- ond of the year and Joe Medwick joined him at the head of the par- ade. ‘The Reds yielded to the Cubs 8-4. Bonura’s circuit crashes accounted for three of the White Sox runs aganist Detroit but Goose Goslin and Gerry Walker brought home five tal- lies by the same method and the Tig- ers won 6-5. Pittsburgh's Pirates found young Paul Dean easier than Brother Jer- ome Herman had been the day be- fore and belted out a 7-to-6 victory. ‘The world-champion Giants down- ed the Phillies for the second time, 6-2. The Senators gained their second triumph over the Red Sox by a 5-4 count. ‘The Browns got a 2-0 victory over ‘Cléveland. Frankhouse and Betts pitched the Braves to a 3-to-2 triumph over Brooklyn's Dodgers.

Year But Many Features Are Clarified Language !s More Specific Re-! garding Odd Happenings During Match The 193¢ rules of golf still bear marked resemblance of last year. Yet the U. 8. Golf Association has pre- pared 23 typewritten sheets listing upwards of one hundred definitions and regulations rephrased, simplified, rearranged as to order and, in a few instances, altered as to meaning. ‘The average golfer is content to let it go as a stroke every time he takes a swipe at the ball. If he has learned that a slight nudge of the ball with the toe of his shoe sometimes results in a five instead of a six or seven, he does it—contrary to rules of course. * * * Technically, though, the 1934 rules of golf are not what they were. Following are the most important changes in the general rules: A player may take his stance out- side the limits of the teeing ground. A player may have the line of hole indicated to him “at any time.” The old rule restricted this privilege to “through the green or from a hazard.” The new Rule 8 specifically states that a dropped ball must not come to rest nearer the hole. Rule 11 offers several changes. The privilege of moving such obstacles as flagstick, guidepost and such imple- ments as wheebarrow, grass-cutter, etc. is extended to include bridge. bridge-planking, seat, hut, and shel- ter, with an extra clause providing that a ball moved in removing such obstacles be dropped without penalty in accordance with Rule 8. ‘The old rule said to drop the ball in all cases other than a stroke from the teeing ground. To cite an illustration, suppose a brassie shot from No, 7 fairway is hit widly and comes to rest on No. 12 green. Obviously, one should not play the ball from the green, but the new rule permits him to “place” the ball in a good lie off the green, not nearer the hole, with- out penalty, eek Ah, the water hazard! Many’s the time, perhaps, that you've teed up your ball at the water hole and arch- ed it right into the drink. The old rule forced you to accept a stroke Penalty and to drop the ball, although you were given leeway clear back to the tee. Subdivision 1 of Rule 27 now |fetee the ball with a stroke penalty. A ball lying or lost in casual water may be dropped “on dry ground” as near as possible to the spot where it lies. A putt out of turn SHALL be re- called, states Rule 31, instead of MAY be recalled, as in the old rule. Here's one to remember — if your ball on the putting green strikes the flagstick held by your opponent or his caddie, your opponent loses the hole to you. 7 ** * Rules for stroke competition also list several important changes. In three instances, penalty has been stepped up from one to two strokes, Stroke Rule 1 now permits the com- mittee in charge of an event to send out more than two competitors at the same time. The old rules disqualified a player for making two consecutive strokes with the wrong ball. Under the new rules, he incurs a penalty of two strokes and then must play his own ball. The player whose ball strikes him- self, his caddie, or his club under the new rule incurs two strokes penalty, instead of one, as formerly. Penalty for striking an opponent's ball on the putting green also has been increased from one to two strokes. The same change has been made where a competitor lifts his own ball while his opponent's ball is in motion. ¢—_____..--____._-__¢ | Yesterday’s Stars —____—_.

Ten noted hitters in the major leagues Thursday had collected 2,000 or more hits, but Simmons leads them all with his average of 198 a season. ry | Missing Pitcher t Puzzle to Wilson Philadelphia, April 19—(P)— Jimmy Wilson, manager of the Philadelphia National League club, is worried over the unex- plained disappearance of one of his most promising hurlers, Frank Pearce. “Pearce is one of the best be- haved men on the team,” Wilson said Wednesday in commenting on the missing pitcher's faithful- ness to training rules. He ex- pressed fear Pearce may have be- come ill or suffered an accident. The Phils moundsman dropped from sight Tuesday after turning over his coat and luggage to a room-mate with the explanation that he had to make a business call. A search for him since then has been unavailing. Shields and Stoefen Reach Quarter-Finals White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., April 19.—(#)—Frank X. Shields and Lester R.

IN NERA STARTE! APIECE AY PAYIN' F: a THEY'VE COME TO ste "ABOUT IT. CROSSED UP BY SIX REJUVENATED ACES Vosmik, Wilson, M’Manus, Uhle, Koenig and Lazzeri Play Fine Ball INDIAN’S EYES IMPROVED Clubbers, Fielders and Pitchers Ready for Discard Have About Face New York, April 19.—When the baseball circus folded up its tent at the end of 1933, old Father Time took @ glance at Joe Vosmik, Hack Wilson, Marty McManus, See, Uhle, Mark Koenig and Tony Lazzeri. The gent with the scythe ‘was heard to mumble something in his beard about having the high sign on those guys. Every one of those former diamond Greats was conceded to be through. Joe Vosmik, the brilliant Cleve- land rookie of 1932, was labeled a flash in the pan. His fielding was still up to snuff, it was acknowledged, but his punch at the plate, consider- ed to be plenty potent in 1932, had flown the coop—and with it went Vosmik’s greatness and his career. The one-time blasting bull of the Cubs, Hack Wilson, was acknowledged deader than last year's hen fruit. His bat had lost its power hob-nobbing with the Brooklyn Foolishness Boys, and he was headed for oblivion. ee * McManus, when he was sold to Brooklyn, was given hope for a time. But when Casey Stengel was award- ed the managerial post of the Dod- gers, the same post for which Bob Quinn was reported to have bought Marty, the boys said Mac was through. ‘They shed a few salty tears when George Uhle, the, former Indian, was sent over to Detroit with an n. g. label affixed to his person. Detroit agreed with that classification, ap- Parently, for they soon bundled him off to the Giants, who unloaled him before the Yankees took a chance. “He was good when he had it,” they remarked of Mark Koenig last year when he worked part time for the Cubs after sliding way down from his job with the world champion Yankees a few years ago. But when the Cubs got rid of him to the Phil- es and he then was traded to Cin- cinnat!, the undertakers held a con- vention to bid for the body. Tony Lazzeri? Well, his number| had been up for several years, and this season surely would see him stepping out of the Yanks’ infield and permitting one more worthy to fill his boots, Ped > conversation. Pes did Father” Time get fooled? id how! ee Vosmik’s eyes, reported to be ready for a course in Braille last year, have improved to such extent that he blasted the pitching of Cari Hubbell, Hal Schumacher, and the rest of the Giants’ stars all over the southland in spring exhibition games. Marty McManus has taken a new lease on life. From certain oblivion with the Dodgers, he has been sold to the Braves to replace the injured Rabbit Maranville. Marty, always a clever fielder, al- though not exceptionally heavy on the stick, gives promise of subbing Nghe the injured Brave in excellent George aie: Proved he was far from through acne last year. Using his ir head and sparing his arm, Uhle won 6 and lost 1 for McCarthy. He'll grove be Joe's chief relief hope in aida ne ae Pennant race. Koenig probably was the victim of faulty handling when he was with the Yanks and Cubs. He thrived on work, and was an excellent stickman. His part-time job with the Cubs irked him, and he longed to be out there in the thick of flying horsehides. He'll be out there for the Reds this year—and plenty! nae They can't stop that guy. y, according to reports, is “pushin’ ons up” with renewed vigor at third base. Tony alternated between sec- ond and the hot corner in 1930 and 1931, and it was then that he got the idea he liked third base best. It took him two years to get the idea over, and finally shifted him. His early season work indicates he won't be ousted.
