I should say he has gotten over his freshman habits and is ready to settle down to being the best right-hander in the National league if not in baseball.” All of which explains why the Giants, among others, sought long and earnestly to pry Dean away from the Cardinals during the winter trading sessions. The only hitch was that Messrs. Sam Brea- don and Branch Rickey happened to appreciate just as much as their fellow magnates the rare value of Dean, not only as a pitcher but as a box-office attraction. May Beat Matty’'s Mark Dean led the National League in strike-outs last year, his first full season in the majors, with a total of 191. He appeared in 46 games. This compared with the record of the king of American League pitchers, Robert Moses Grove, who fanned 188 in 44 games. The National League still has a \less lively ball than the American, using a thicker..covering, and this contribution to the cause of pitch- ing craft may enable Dean to set a new National League record for strikeouts. He still has quite a way to go before touching the modern league rd of 267 strikeouts, made by Christy Mathewson in 1903, but it should be within the reach of the St. Louis youngster. Dazzy Vance, who led the National League for seven successive years in strike- outs, threatened Matty’s record by fanning 262 batters in 1924. Dean, like the great Grove, found the attempt to “throw 'em past” major leaguers a vastly different proposition from fooling the minor league stickers. Dean with Hous- ton in 1931, struck out 303 men in Texas League company. Grove never had less than 200 strikeougs while doing his stuif as a regular pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles. The famous southpaw whiffed 330 in 1923 for his high mark. His best effort in the ma- 100! er'’s Ink! jors is 214 strikeouts made in 1930. CARNERA HAS HIS CAMPAIGN FOR NEXT G0 Primo Counts to “Fascist” Wallop to Beat Jack Sharkey ROME, April 20.—A Fascist wal- lop in both huge fists and the un-| yielding courage of 11 Duce him- | self, is what Primo Carnera ex- pects to take into the ring for his championship bout with Jack Shar- key at New York in June. The ring mastadon said so dur- ing a recent visit to the capital, | where he affirmed his loyalty to Mussolini and described himself as “entirely a Blackshirt.” “I fully realize the tremendous responsibility placed on my shoul- ders with this battle,” he said. “In it, as in all my fights, I will do my utmost to represent Fascism and my country properly. I hope the Blackshirt epirit will not fail Carnera paintea a menacing pic- ture of Sharkey for his Roman admirers. Declining to minimize the champ's ring skill, strategy, .and ability to give or take punishment, he said he would prepare for the | impending bout ‘“as never before.” “It will take something more than weight and courage to whip Sharkey,” he told a group of ad- mirers. ——————.—— SNAGS BIG ONE TABERVILLE Mo.
