R yi 1 1in 1929 by taxing the wraps off Howard Ehmke as a surprise start- | er that they could not believe he would be orthodox enough to start | ;his ace, Grove, last year. | The exceptional eircumstances | that existed in 1929, however, did | not prevail the following year and | the Grove-Earnshaw combination, | quite logically, performed the main i pitching tasks. | This year Mack has the seasoned Waite Hoyt and the brilliant i youngster, Leroy Mahaffey, to con- sider in mapping out his pitching |'plans. Moreover, Rube Walberg has had his best season and has been rotated ahead of Grove. If any member of the staff is to get the choice over Grove for the opener it is likely to be Walberg, but the betting is at least 2 to 1 that the battery for the first skir- mish will be “Grove and Cochrane.” Should the series be extended, this arrangement would enable Mack to use Grove in the fourth, and, if necessary, the seventh and deciding games, wifh plenty of rest for the great southpaw between as- signments. By GEORGE McMANUS IDIOT- DO YOU REALIZE HE'S FIFTY YEARS OLD AND | The players say that { n has been more effective since hz hurt his wrist than hefore, for the peculiar reasons that it has forced {him to adopt a somewhat differ- }ent style of delivery and a more | baffling one. If Street abides by experience, he will not start his fast righthander ‘Charles Flint Rhem, whose world's series experience has been any- thing but happy. ‘The pitching pairings, if we may take the liberty, should be as fol- lows for the first four games: Grove-Grimes, Earnshaw-Derringer, ‘Walberg-Hallahan, Grove-Haines. e —e—— ARMOUR MAY CLASH WITH SARAZEN NOW Both Eliminate Opponents in Championship Golf Series Competition for the Professional Golfers’ Association Championship yesterday drew a step nearer to an apparently inevitable clash be- and Gene Sarazen, of Great Neck, Gabby’s Choice Harder. Gabby Street's opening selection may not be quite so easy, for he has had no standout among his re- liable regulars. Burleigh Grimes undoubtedly will clamor for a return bout with Grove. He dropped two close de- cisions to the Mackmen last year. If he is right, the law of averages should be in his favor, but it takes something besides that to tame the big bats of the A’s. This might be the oceasion for Street to pull a surprise- by as- signing his younger star, Paul Der- ringer, to pitch the” opening game. |Derringer has had a great first year and one of the keenest of National league observers told me recently the ex-Rochester star was one of the most puzzling twirlers {to face for the first time. P | ‘“Derringer,” he remarked, ‘“has a most deceptive delivery. Tghe batsman doesn't know where the ball is coming from until it's on top of him. This is due to Der- ringer's peculiar style. “He wraps himself up and let's go of the ball before you know it. It may be sidearm, overhand of underhand. He will bother any team that he faces for the first time, including the A’s.” Friendly Injury. Old Jesse Haines and Wild Bil Hallahan tamed the Athletics in St. Louis last year.

LOUIS, Sept. 17.—The St. Louis Cardinals’ “farm system” for developing young players, which has brought three National league pennants and one world’s cham- pionship to the Mound City in five seasons, may soon have a neigh- | borly rival.
