ENJOYABLE CARD PARTY pioE CETY LRS & The third event of the Eagles' card party series was successfuily held last night with the usual good By JAMES B. RESTON crowd in attendance. Eleven tables (Associated Press Sports Writer) PATRICIA NASH, a plump, stubborn girl from Gulfport, Miss., didn't think Dizzy Dean’s blunders were so funny, so he married her. “I didn't need a manager, eith- er,” explains Dizzy. “I already had two—one for the summer and a special one for the winter.” The problem of any rookie break- ing into the Cardinals organization | is to keep from getting lost in the crowd. Even Branch Rickey admits that many excellent players get away in the bustle. Hello Branch, O' Boy! But there was little chance of Dizzy Dean getting lost in the crowd. He was sent at the start of | the 1930 season to the St. Joseph, Mo, club, but before many days passed, Branch Rickey had cause to look up the record of Jerome Herman Dean. There was no record, but Diz- zy took care of that. He marched out of a St. Joseph hotel one eve- | ning and didn't return. Several days later he was presented the bill, but, he fumed and argued that there was a mistake. “I ain’t been there in a week," he roared. The Cardinals paid this and several other bills contracted by Dizzy, and put a black mark against his record. Then they had cauise to notice Dean for another reason. He had won 17 and lost only eight, so before the season was over the Cardinals had to take him out of St. Joseph and send him to the Houston club in the Texas league. It's a Cinch! He won eight more for Houston and lost only two and though the | Cards were leading the National )Emmett Mueller, a rookie infield- rsure " Dizzy explained that he had league race, they decided to take a look at him anyway. So he was ordered to report to Manager Gab- by Street of the Cardinals im- mediately in New York. When Dizzy Dean jumped fronf a salary of 40 cents a day to several thousands a year, he' wasn't exactly prepared to take care of the increase. But Dizzy, married capable of taking care of his money. She is shown above, and be- low with Dizzy. At this time in his life, Dizay Dean lived from ‘“shirt to shirt.” When he was in St. Joseph, he bought one shirt, wore it until it | was black, then threw it away and bought another one. He wore any- thing he could get his hands on, which, of course, included his room- | mate’s clothes. It so happened that | his roommate in St. Joseph was | er, six and one half inches short- er than Dizzy, and not until the | little fellow shook a dangerous, 38- | | Qunce bat in front "of the great ! one’s head did he understand that { | a Gulfport, Miss,, girl who was “Quit wearing my clothes; ruining them.” Fifteen minutes before he was due to leave for New York, he was found shuffling along one of Hous- ton’s, main streets, laden With packages.
