Douglas Legion Moose -SPORT; SLANTS While doing his spring plowing in the National League's vineyard, the enterprising Mr. Ford Flick emerges with the altogether sur- prising information that among all time star flingers now toiling the bastures of the senior or Heydler Loop, as the boys t it, only one pitcher can claim a majority ver- dict over every other rival club. He's none other than the Mis- rissippi “mudcat” Guy (Joe) Bush, of the Chicago Cubs, and the only one of 51 pitchers who can say, in n manner of speaking, that they all look alike to him. Of course, the world series has to be except- vd, for if Guy (Joe) Bush never has to face the taunts of Babe Ruth and the Yankees again it will be, even then, entirely too soon. Bush was the victim of the Ruthian clout at Wrigley Field in 1932 that they still chatter about. But on with the analysis, Mr. Frick. The floor is yours. 3 2 2 1 ‘COUSINS’ IN FLATBUSH “Of course some of the clubs have given Guy a whale of a bat- tle. The Cardinals for instance have beaten him 14 times while he holds 15 victories over them. Brooklyn on the other hand has been a “cousin.” Guy has taken the Dodgers into camp 21 times and has lost only 9. ‘‘Carl Hubbell, the Giant ace, probably would like to know Bush’s secret. Brooklyn is the toughest club in the league for the screw- ball artist. In 29 games Carl has beaten the Dodgers only 9 times while. they have pinned <his ears back on no less than 20 occasions. Cincinnati and Philadelphia, on !Lhe other hand, have been easy for Hubbell. “Just one club keeps Dazzy Vance from equalling Bush's Trecord of, holding & winning margin through-;l-enner Mav Be Graduated out the league—and that club is A . |the Cardinals, Try as he may Daz-| Out of His Third |2y doesn't seem able to breeze that | Y. ! fast one past the Cards success-| ear on Grid fully and during his career he has| won only 20 from St. Louis while| MINNEAPOLIS, May 26— Bob |they have beaten him 27 times. |Tenner. sterling end on the Uni- “Heine Meine of Pittsburgh has- versity of Min ta football team n't a remarkable big league record,|the last two v may not be but the figures show that he has|With the Gophers next fall—be- been particularly successful in!cause he ‘‘was too good a student. making the Boston Braves say| The Big Ten probably will pass {*Uncle’ In 17 games Heine has final judgment on Tenner’s eligibil- won 13 and lost only four against ity in September.

The right field fence there formerly was an even 400 feet | from the plate, but it has been; shortened to 350 this year. Joe showed his appreciation in the first series his Minneapolis team played there by smacking | two balls over the right field wall in one game. R S TR ATTENTION MASONS Stated Communication of Mt.
