The injection of more'jack-mb- bit juice into the National League baseball this season has been pro- ductive of some extraordinary con- sequences, not all of which are manifest in the widespread increase in batting averages of most regu- |lars. The top two batsmen of 1933 | were Chuck Klein at .368 and Vir- |gil Davis at 349 both with Phila- delphia. Both were also traded during the winter, Klein being sold {to the Cubs for $125,000 and Davis being traded to the Cardinals for Jimmy Wilson. Yet neither new ' home surroundings nor the livelier |kall has appearsd to help them. Up to the last of. August. Klein was hitting only .320 and out of the race for the batting crown. Davis has fallen off 60 points. Meanwhile the hitting of their replacements in Philadelphia, Al |Todd and John Moore, indicates FINISHED SER VICE When 1t becomes neces- sary to select a funeral service you will find that every detail that can contribute to the beau- ty and dignity of these final rites has been in- cluded.

CHANGES BEFORE > far this year or 11 points higher than the 1933 Quaker outfit. More difficult to explain is the falling off in batting among such hard drivers as Chick Hafey, Wally Berger, Pepper Melrtin. Wes Schul- merich and Riggs Stephenson but they are, it is true, the exceptions. Bill Terry is enjoying one of his biggest years, pacing the entire list, while hisc leanup ace, Mel Ott, is hitting about 80 points higher than in 193. Joe Moore, another Giant beneficiary of the livelier sphere, is up 50 points. Dick Bar- { tell, Paul Waner, Joe Medwick, Jim | Collins, Arky Vaughan and Kiki 'Cuyler, all have increased their batting marks from 15 to 50 points. THE HITLESS WONDERS { Youve probably heard ‘em cali | the Giants the “hitless wonders’ during their sensational gallop to the top last year. In many respect they earned the label, for it was | pitching and the “breaks” that {carried the club through the rough- est part of the pennant tourney. This year Bill Terry’s outfit is slugging at a .283 pace yet it is stil) no better than fifth in the league list, Consequently the fact that the Giants still are on top, with an ex- cellent . chance of staying there, must be attributed again to their superior pitching staff. PITCHING IS BETTER The epidemic of great pitching this year, in both major leagues is the most curious by-product of the livelier ball. More . hurlers are at or near the 20-victory class than any season we can recall in the last decade, led by Dizzy Dean in the National and Lefty Gomez in the Ameican. At least a dozen should touch or go well beyond this mark, including such freshman sensa- tions as Curtis Davis of the Phil- lies and Paul Dean of the Cardi- nals, as well as the youthful De- troit ace, Schoolboy Rowe, whose remarkable winning streak in his first full major league year Hs the year’s No. 1 pitching stunt. e o STRIPP IS SPIKED . ON HIS OWN BENCH BROOKLYN, Sept. 8—The lat- est stunt of the rollicking Flat- bush crew known as the Brooklyn Dodgers is the injury of Jersey Joe Stripp in his own dugout. Joe was watching the play on the field from a safe seat on the bench when Pitcher Emil Leonard came tumbling down the steps. His| spikes cut through Joe's stocking,' stripping his heel of some precious flesh. Stripp was not able to fln-] ish the game.

The tall, fair-skinned mauler with the elongated pfoboscis and curly brown hair certainly put the bast on Baer, just as soon as he vecovered his landlegs after the flight from Los Angeles. Although Angular Artie is in ‘own to enter his bid as challenger in a fifteen-rounder with Steve Hamas on September 27, he ex- oressed little interest in that brawl. Instead he flailed the champion all over his hotel room. “Box-office Jew' . “Just a box-office Jew,” Lasky charged. “The percentage of He- brow blood in Baer's veins is not 1carly as larze as the challenger’s “ut h> got for the Carnera fight.

He plans to enter the ring at about 197, giving him about a sev- en-pound advantage over Hamas. This bout will mark Art's first Eastern appearance since he de- feated Hans Birkie unimpressively at Madison Square Garden ir | March, 1933. Trainer Rooney, who handled in various capacities Ad Wolgast, Jess Willard, Barney Ross and Jackie Fields, claimed Lasky is the best ‘all-round fighter” he ever saw. He emphasized that 33 knockouts in 44 fights is an impressive rec- ord, which is blemished by only one defeat. ., LIBRARIAN TOURS Miss Josephine Halverson, Li- brarian in the college library at Oregon State College, is making a vacation tour of Alaska on the steamer Alaska.
