Called at end of sixth inning on account of Lefty Grove, at 37, keeps on add- Tain. ing victories. He has passed the =~ 250 mark and, in this respect, stands head and shoulders above other ac- tive big league hurlers. Wait Hoyt, taking part in his 20th big league campaign, has more than 230 wins but there is little likelihood he will add many to that total. The same is true of old Jesse Haines. Jesse has 210 major league victories, but he is 44. At that age wins in the big show are few and far between.' Earl Whiteball has gone over the 200 mark, but the rest of the field isn't even close. | Grove has had a remarkable ca- reer. A colorful figure with his once blinding speed, he has had his ups and downs. There have been several occasions when his steel spring arm seemed to have lost its strength. It appeared that Connie Mack had sold the Red Sox a pitcher without an arm when Lefty reported to Boston in 1934. 1 The Red Sox had paid something like $125000 in cash and a couple of ball players for Grove. Rubt‘\ Walberg and Max Bishop,. Grove, of course, was the main reason for, the deal. After having won 24j Douglas school are scheduled to :be opened at a mecting of the Doug- las City Council to be held this evening in the City Hall. It is understood that there will be about {15 bids on the main and sub-con- tracts to open for consideration. e MISS AALTO RETURNS After completing a summer course " Remember!
