As the 1934 swimming season closes, Miss McKean stands out as the outstanding newcomer of the year. Even Miss Lenore Kight, Home- stead, Pa., who dazzled the swim- ming world by winning four free style titles in 1933, fell before Miss McKean in the 100 yard free style event of the national women's A. A. U. indoor championships at Chi- cago. And just to prove that her | victory in the indoor meet was | no fluke, she did the same thing in the outdoor championship at| Chicago in July. | But though Miss Kight lost her 100 yard free style title, she main- | tained her supremacy in the longer | 300 and 500 yard free style events free style event, outdoors, gained a measure of revenge hy‘ defeating Miss McKean and Miss Katherine Rawls, her two closest rivals. ‘ NMRS.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. 12.— Harry Kipke, who coaches Michi- to Big Ten once every teams about gan football championships On the same day that scarcely ,5.000 baseball customers paid to see the eminent Dizzy Dean return to action in”St. Louis and horse- collar the world champion Giants, a crowd of 17,000 cash patrons turned out in the evening at Buf- falo to celebrate “Fabian Kowalik Night” in honor of the Buffalo In- ternational’s star pitcher. | Dean pitched a shutout and Ko- walik hung up his 15th victory of the season but the interesting point of course, is that three times as many people paid to see a class “AA” game as were interested in a much ballyhooed performance in- volving leading contenders for the National League pennant. It is cne of the items that has revived the talk about shifting one of the' football season, wishes the other,St. Louis major league franchises boys who coach football in the Big Ten would quit picking the Michi- gan team to repeat: “We'll lose at least three games,” “How can anybody be so rash as to say that we will have a team that will campare favor- ably with our 1932 and 1933 teams when we lose such players as Ber- nard, Wistert, Fay, Petoskey, Ever- hardus, Savage and Kowalik?"” Kipke states that there will be more sophomores on the Michigan first and second teams this season than ever since he took over the ecaching job here. “It looks as if Michigan's chances can be summed up in 10 words, Regeczi to punf, Renner to pass, and Florence to pray,” Kipke says, and he intimates it will take his wife Florence’s best prayers to win five out of eight games.

The System Fails Despite the most elaborate “chain store” organization in baseball and a progressive policy that has kept the Cardinals at or close to the top of the National League for nearly ten years, the Cardinals have been in the “red” for the pa®) several seasons. This situation is not pe-‘ culiar to the St. Louis organiza- | tion, s7 far as major league clubs| are concerned, but the point is that | even with a winner or a pennant contender the Cardinals are lucky {if they come close to breaking levcn. I do not think the St. Louis “overhead” now compares with that | but Car] Hubbell of the Giants gets almosk that much by himself. Player-mans ager Frankie Frisch's salary prob- ably is no more than half of Bil} Terry’s stipend for . leading the Giants. Thus it isn't hard to figure why there’s frequent evidence of dis- content or umrest in the St. Louli organization, on the team as well as in the front office. . Giants Interested Too! Reports already have been circu- lated around the baseball lobbiey that the Cardinals and po&sbly the Cubs will experience a shakea up over the coming winter. is no doubt both teams have a biz disappointment . to. 4 owners and followers hecause of failure to give the Giants a closer race. If the Cards want to peddie any of their stars, including either of the Deans, Bill Hallahan or Pep= per Martin, they will find soma eager bidders, the Giants among them. Terry would be especially de« lighted to have Hallahan and Martin. Dizgy Dean is worth $100,~ 000 to any club in either league® but he is not likely to be sold, if at all, to any first-division outfit.
