ST. LOUIS.—The grin that helped make “Sunny Jim” Bottomley an idol of St. Louis Cardinal fans for eight years has turned to a grim smile this season. “Sunny Jim” has lost a lot of his popularity. The cheers that have rung through the ball park each time he has been at the plate since 1922, this season have been mixed with jeers. Even the women with whom Bot- tomley was especially a favorite no longer chant “Come on, Jim” when he goes to bak Bottomley’s play this season has lost the dash and fire of a few years back, and his home run punch is missing. The fans have been quick to note the lack of ag- gressiveness and already are specu- latihg on where the first baseman will be next season. Rumors among baseball authori- ties here are that Bottomley's smil- ing face will not be in the 193] lineup. Branch Rickey, vice-president of the Cardinals, already has said that James A. “Mip” Collins, sensational first baseman of the Rochester club, will be a Redbird next sea- son. “Collins has earned promotion, and he will get it,” the club official said. Only once in eight years has Bot- tomly failed to hit above the .300 mark until this season. That was in 1925 when his average was .299. This year his hitting mark has hov- ered just below .300. Bottomley has been handicapped this season by an injured thumb, which perhaps has been the reason he has appeared to slow up. In a recent game “Sunny Jim” came to bat with the tying run on base. He fouled out and the fans, forgetting the past, booed. Bottomley’s smile faded, his head drooped slightly, and dropping his bat, he walked slowly to the dug- out. Reports that he wants to be traded have been denied by the first sacker. “I've given my best for the Car- dinals,” says Bottomley. “I'm satis- fied here in St. Louis, and natur- ally it’s going to hurt if I'm traded. But I'll be playing ball some place | next year, so why worry?” Bottomley, 30, won the league’s most vnllnble player award in 1928. |gestions to make about the outcome | 'of the National league pennant race |the probability is\ that he would If Connie Mack had any sug-| nominate his old rival, John Mc- Graw, to carry the opposing banner in the world’s series this October. Since there is every reason to suspect the A's will repeat in their own circuit, the question of the National league’s entry in the big | series may be said to occupy some | of the spare thoughts of Mr. Mack and his athletes. The Pirates, the Cardinals and | the Cubs all have oeen tried and found wanting in the last few| championship battles, so much so that in three successive years these clubs have collected an aggregate of exactly one victory in thirteen starts against the Yankees and Ath-| letics. Brooklyn, which has not won since 1920 and was not much of a series factor then, has lately shown signs of fading rapidly from the pennant picture. *The Cubs may! repeat, but the Giants still have a lot to say about the matter. It is fairly safe to suggest that National league men as a whole, in addition to Mr. Mack, would be | delighted to have John McGraw | do the master-minding in the se- ries again, though the mafives in- volved would be somewhat different. ‘What the N. L. wants is a fight- ing team in the main event scrap- ping to regain the old circuit’s, prestige. McGraw has the outfit calculated to do it, plus the experi- ence that such leaders as Bush, McKechnie and McCarthy have lacked. Connie believes the Giants would be the most troublesome of any of the National league teams in the !short limits of a world's series, but | ‘he would rather match wits with {McGraw again than anyone else in | Shawkey, Killefer, Peckinpaugh and | ca. baseball. Triumph would be sweet- er, defeat less bitter to swallow, in such a contest The years have not dimmed Con- nie Mack’'s memory of his famous battles with McGraw in the world's series of 1905, when Christy Ma- thewson hurled three shutouts against the A's of 1911 and 1913, |when Mack's greatest team turned the tables on the New Yorkers. “Mathewson was at his height in 1905 and I have never witnessed | greater pxtchmg than he showed |against us.” Mack told me in a recent chat over old times: “It was wonderful Six years later Matty was still the toughest of them all to beat. I have never seen his equal, taking every- | thing into consideration.” After all 1s said and done, Mc- 1 Graw seems about the only major | league manager qualified by succes experience and wits to make it in- teresting for Mack, who has no ri- ,vals whatever in the American | league. Pilots like Johnson, Wagner, Bush, Harris have done well but they were either in kindergarten or just| blossoming out on schoolboy dia-! monds when Connie Mack was win- ning American league pennanls“ | Shawkey was one of his pitching pupils. !

The British government in Pales- tine, has restricted the return of Jews to their country, and the gov- ernment of Irak, under British mandate, has barred the gates of their old home in northern Meso- potamia to the "Assyrians, because it fears that some foreign power may be promoting Assyrian seftle- ment on political grounds. At present there are some 70,000 Assyrians in Irak Some 200,000 others are scattered in adjoining countries. In the war they fought Turks and after the conflict, fled from the B ritory. . Even today they speak Aramaic 1 which, at the time of Christ, was a current language in the Near East. —— NOTICE TO 'I'AXPA\ RS The City Clerk’s Office will be open evenings from 7 to 8 p.m. on land after September 10th (o re- Iceive taxes.
