Whichone went to the post at 3 to 5 while the Fox, despite his impressive rec- ord under Earl Sande’s handling, was shunted off in the betting to 0 5. The answer probably is double- barrelled; first, that the layers fig- ured too much on Whichone's su-! premacy over the Fox as a two-| year-old; second, a general tenden- ¢y to underrate the Fox's perform-} ances in the Preakness and Ken-| tucky Derby. Then, too, there is always an idea that a winning streak on the turf won't last long and the fecling was that the Fox| was due for a reversal under the law of averages. All this reasoning by the expefts, who backed Whichone almost to a man, turned out to be as wet as the day on which the Belmont was run. Simultaneously the Fox thor-! oughly dissipated any idea that he cannot do his best in the rain, mud and heavy going. ‘What most of the dopesters failed to grasp was that Gallant Fox and Sande were improving as they got to know each other better. The Fox had to come up from eighth place under a smashing drive to beat ~out Crack Brigad: Preakness. The same colt was half a dozen lengths ¢f more back| g of the Fox in_ the Derby, which was just a gallop for Sande and his| mount. in the| In the Belmont, the big| first baseman of the Giants. If there is a better first base- man now in either league than Bill Terry, it is difficult to locate him. Only Jimmy Foxx of the World’s Champion A’'s seems a rival and Jimmy, though a lusty sticker, does | not compare with Terry defensive- |1y. Terry is 32 now, no longer a kid, but he has improved at a rapid pace. He hit 326 in 1927 and again in 1928, slugged for .372 last year and has been traveling at a .400 clip most of this season. For a slant on the kind of a fel- | low Terry is, read this extraordinary dispatch from the ball park wire: “At Terry's own request the error charged to Lindstrom in the first half of the first inning was trans- ferred to Bill's own account. Terry came to the press box and said it was unfair to give Lindstrom the error. “Freddie's throw on Flag- stead’s grounder was good but I, Jjuggled it and deserved the error,’ . said Terry.” | There should be a special niche in the record books for this, some- thing like this: “Most times player | claimed error charged to team mate | —1, Bill Terry, Giants, June 11, 1930.” Babe Ruth always has hac a| special fondness for the outer; reaches of Sportsman’s Park in St. | Louis,. scene of his two great out- \bursts of world’s series home run therefore, the Babe stepped up to bat in the first inning of his first game this season there and belted one of Walter Stewart's southpaw slants into the right center pavil- ion! for his 19th round-tripper of 1930. Ruth hit one of his first homers there in 1915, when he was with the Red Sox and has rattled off 43 altogether in St. Louls, more than in any other. Western park. —————— { . SPORT BRIEFS 1 . The Cleveland Indians will have a new stadium to play in which bay colt was even better, showing a distinet liking for the route. The Preakness was a mile and three-sixteenths, the Derby a mile and a quarter, the Belmont a mile and a half. ~Apparently, the far- ther the Fox gallops the better he likes iti . Only twice has Babe Ruth’s home run total for any season been sur- passed by a National Leaguer. Both times it was Rogers Hornsby who outslammed the Big Slam, first in 1922 and again in 1925. Both times it was a spell of illness that con- tributed to,the Babe's loss of cir- cuit clouting honors. Hornsby has now been forced to theé sidelines but the famous vankeg slugger has had to step along sat a record pace to keep ahead of new and younger National League challengers. Reading from left (to right, four of the biggest homi'e run shots in the N. L. are Hack Wilson, Chuck Klein, ‘Wally Berger. and Mel Ott. Babe Her- man also may belong in this cast. Kbig in his first full year set & national League mark of 43 hom- ers last season and is maintaining this pace again. ‘He should have all of August to gain on himself this year, for he was out of action most of that month in 1929. Mean- while, the first-year sensation of 1930 is Wally Berger, the new Bos- ton Siege Gun, who has found the -, major league range just as easy as the Paeific Coast league targets. Among a flock the Oldlgsouth who have made good mention should be made of Wil- liam Harold Terry, first baseman extraordinary, native of Atlanta, .Georgia, and resident of Memphis, ssee. .

In ‘the last four seasons, up to this year, “Wee Willie” Sherdel, new Boston Brave, pitched victories in 25 more games than he lost for the St. Louis Cardinals. Burleigh Grimes, veteran Na- tional league pitcher, has won 227 games during his 14 years’ service in the league. Ed Ulbrickson, No. 5 on the Washington university freshman crew, is a brother of Al Ulbrickson, the school’s famous coach. ——————— WHITE SOX’ HURLING ACE DISAPPOINTS NEW MANAGER CHICAGO, July 7—Alphonse Thomas is the biggest disappoint- ment of a disappointing first sea- son for Donje Bush, mite manager of the luckless Chicago White Sox.
