CLAIM INDIAN SOUTHPAW MOST BAFFLING HURLER Walter Has Yielded Griffs but 16 Hits and 3 Runs in Trio of Wins Over Them This Year—Hurls Tribe to Victory i n Series Opener. BY JOHN B. KELLER. W say the Nationals. ALTER MILLER, Cleveland’s modest but mighty left-hander, has become the Washington club’s pet aversion. would rather face any other southpaw slabman than Miller, According to them, Walter has so many ‘They ways of delivering the ball that one never knows what to look for. With Miller working it generally means the batter will be guessing all the time, the Washington players claim. They ought to know what they are talking about when express- ing their dislike of Miller's brand of hurling. The Nationals have seen much of it this season, and usually to their sorrow. Four times Miller has pitched against them in the current campaign, and three times has he licked them—and soundly, too. Miller turned in his third victory | over the Nationals this year in the opener of the three-game series | between the Cleveland and Wash- | ington clubs at Griffith Stadium | yesterday, and while his work was not of the finished order he had | revealed in previous triumphs, it |Fonse still was good enough to net the | ‘Tribe a 4 to 2 victory. | Miller started his licking of the Nationals _this year at Cleveland on | May 3. Then he set them back with | six hits and no runs. He was in poor trim when he started against them here on June 11 during the Indians' first | e, invasion of the East, and left the box in the third inning a beaten man. But | he came back in Cleveland on July 13 | pyel to hold them to three safeties and one tally, and yesterday he allowed them | but seven hits. | In his trio of wins over the Nationals Miller has allowed exactly 16 safeties and three runs. No wonder the Na- tlonals don't like to run into his hurl- ng! Miller’s Control Fine. Miller's control yesterday was ex- cellent, not a National reaching first base without batting his way there. And Miller was hit in but four of the nine innings. Once the Nationals bunched three safeties to get all their runs, and late in the fray they clus- tered as many as two hits. But with | Gy two runners on and only one out Miller tightened and the next two Nationals ‘were unable to drive the ball through the infield. Sam_Jones, with what should have been plenty of rest after he was driven from the hill in the game at St. Louis last Sunday, tried to stop the Indians, but the task proved too much for him.|Sooc He lasted just one and one-third in-|Rice nings, during which time the Tribe col- lected six safeties and three runs— enough, it turned out, to win the ball game. With Jones on the slab, the Indians attacked sharply and decisively. | B ‘They didn't do so, however, at the ex- pense of the hurlers following Jones. | Irving Hadley, after a series of poor |y, efforts in the relief role, delivered in good style when he assumed Jones' job. Irving pitched on through the eighth | 5 inning before giving way to a pinch| batter, and during his term yielded but | three hits. His only pass was backed by one of the hits to produce an Indian marker. Ad Liska hurled against the ‘Tribe in the ninth, and with him it was & matter of three up and three down. Tribe Pounds Jomes. Eddle Morgan opened the Indian at- tack by singling off Jones in the first inning. Joe Sewell, though, forced out Eddie, but made first base when Joe Judge dropped a throw from Shortstop Cronin. Earl Averill picked this as the best time to jar the right-fleld wall with a triple, and Lew Fonseca followed with a one-baser to account for the second run of the round. Miller blazed the way to the third run when he singled with one out in the second inning. Jones made & wild pitch with Morgan up, and Miller moved from first to third on the chuck, mainly because Muddy Ruel didn't re- trieve the ball with any haste. Then Morgan singled the pitcher over the counting block. This brought Hadley to Jones’ relief. The next scoring was done by the Nationals in the fourth inning. Sam Rice opened the frame with & two- bagger, and scored when Goose Goslin doubled. Sammy West's one-baser moved the Goose to third only, but the second run crossed after Averill bagged Joe Cronin’s hoist in deep center. Score Again in Fifth. In the fifth frame the Tribe put over its last run. With one out, Averill walked and pulled up at the middle sack as Fonseca was retired. Bib Falk got Averill home by singling down the right-field line. After their scoring round the Na- tionals had but one good chance to tally. It came in the eighth, that Charley Gooch, batting for Hadley, be- gan with a single. After Judge fouled out, Rice hit for a base. .Neither Gos- lin nor Buddy Myer, however, could help their teammates. l BIG LEAGUE STATISTICS I American League. YESTERDAY'S RESULTS.

BY HERBERT W. BARKER. Associated Press Sports Writer. ONIE BUSH, fiery little leader of the Pittsburgh Pirates, is having a lot of luck t! days, but it's all bad. A formidable hospital list has go crippled the Corsairs in recent weeks that it will take all Donle's skill to jockey his line-up around so that the Pirates remain within hailing distance of the Chicago Cubs, current pace set- ters in the National League. ‘The Pirates sailed along in serene fashion until Ple Traynor was hurt in Philadelphia. Then Burleigh Grimes, ace of the pitching staff, suffered a dis- located thumb, George Grantham bobbed up with a lame shoulder and in yesterday’s battle with the Boston Braves, Grantham and Paul Waner col- lided as both chased a short fly and were 80 badly shaken up they had to retire from the game. The collision did Grantham’s shoulder no good and “Big Poison Paul” suffered a bruised leg and arm that may keep him out of the line- up for several days. Rally to Beat Braves. Notwithstanding the loss of two of their most effective batters, the Pirates rallled in the ninth to nose out the Braves in a knock-down and drag-out battle, 9 to 8. The Braves had scored three runs in their half of the Jast frame, but the Corsairs tied up the game on Clark’s homer and scored the winning run on a single by Pinch Hit- ter Ervin Brame. ‘The Cubs maintained their one-game lead over Pittsburgh by trouncing the Phillies, 13 to 10, in a game in which 35 safe hits were scored, 17 for the Phils and 18 for the Cubs. The Phils scored seven runs in the first two in- nings, four of them coming over on Chuck Klein’s thirty-first homer, in the second inning, with the bases loaded. But the Phils couldn't hold this lead, the league leaders clustering 11 hits for as many runs in the third and fourth innings. CIiff Heathcote, subbing for the injured Cuyler, got five hits in as many times at bat. Showing a further return to form, the St. Louis Cardinals downed the New York Gilants for their fourth straight victory, 4 to 3, and advanced to within two games and a half of third place. Jakie May let the Brooklyn Dodgers down with six hits and Cincinnati trotted off with a 4-to-1 triumph. The Reds bunched hits off McWeeny in the third to score three runs, enough to win the game, as it afterward proved. A’s and Yanks Score. In the American League the Phila- delphia Athletics retained their 10 game lead over the Yankees by downing Chicago, 3 to 1. Howard Ehmke let the Sox down with four hits. Ted Lyons was touched for two runs in the first inning, but allowed only one hit—a home run by Jimmy Dykes—after the third inning. Behind Ed Wells’ eight-hit pitching the Yankees pounded Sammy Gray and Lefty Stewart of the Browns for 11 hits and & 9-0 shut-out. Lou Gehrig hit his twenty-fourth homer and Bil Dickey drove out tw ‘Walter Miller was too much for Sen- ;;or b-t&me;\ wand Clgveland beat ashington, Y Behind steady pitching by Owen Car- roll, Detroit beat the Boston Red Sox, 4 to 1.

EW YORK, July 27 (#).—Thor- oughbred racing rides into its palatial palace Monday with all the glory and grandeur at- tached to the opening of Amer- ica's premier race track—Saratoga Springs. For weeks the racing clans have been gathering from all corners of the coun- try—moving in by rail, water and motor for 34 days of the highest type of rac- ing seen on the American continent. As in past years New York's *“400” has descended upon the quiet little up-State town with one idea—pleasure from “playing the ponies.” Blue Larkspur There. And as if to complete the harmonizing effect that makes the Spa distinctly dif- ferent, America’s greatest thoroughbreds have been tuned up for the renewal of past disputes and the inauguration of new ones. Here Blue Larkspur, pride of old Kentucky, will again defend his 3-year-old championship won in the American classic at Arlington Park, matching strides with the best of his age in the Travers’ Midsummer Derby. But it is in its rich juvenile stakes that Saratoga excels. Two-year-olds come into their own with almost two- score of the 38 stake events, totaling $600,000 in purses, for’ youngsters only. Climaxing the battle for the juvenile championship will be the twenty-fourth running of the Hopeful, scheduled for the last day of the meeting—August 31. Even the future champions are brought into the limelight as the sale vendues have become as much a feature of Saratoga’s August as the races. Year after year buyers and sellers are at- tracted from all parts of the world. Racers to Be Sold. Upward of $2,000,000 worth of blue- blood is expected to go under the ham- mer this year, starting August 5 and extending “through August 25. Con- ducted at night under the glare of huge arc lights the sales take on the angle of social importance with soclety at- ténding in ev clothes. Thousands of dollars change hands.

ASHINGTON Gas Light base ballers, who won the_first- half series flag in the Indus- trial League, are hard on the heels of the leaders, Big Print Shop, for second half honors. Big Print Shop has won five games and lost one, while the Gas Light nine has won five and dropped two. Should Gas Light win second-half laurels it will gain the league flag and the right to represent the loop in the week-day leagues’ champlonship series next month. If it loses the current half, it will meet the winner of this series for the league | title. Chestnut Farms stand third in the second-half race with three victories against two defeats, followed by Thomp- son’s Dairy, with one win against four losses, and Western Electric, with no victories against five setbacks. Despite a strong late rally Bureau fell before Treasury in a 9-8 Depart- mental League battle. Jones, relief pitcher for Bureau, not only held Treas- ury scoreless, but gathered three hits in’four attempts, one of them a double. Both Polen, for the winners, and Larry Schneider, for the losers, pitched strong- ly as Mount Vernon overcame St. Al- ban’s in an interesting 6-4 Georgetown Church League struggle. Stellar pitching also marked the game in which Railway Mail Service defeated ‘Washington Terminal, 5 to 3, in_the ‘Terminal Morning League. Litchfield, for the victors, and Plummer, for the vanquished, both did well. Samosets conquered Tris Speakers, 4 to 2, in a hard-fought French Midget League game.

LIGENSE | Action Regarded as Bar to Compromise—Two Others Are Punished. NEW YORK, July 27.—Definite and severe action was taken by the New York State Athletic Commission at its terminate the intricate situation sur- rounding Max Schmeling and his con- tractual disputes. Chairman James A. Farley and Commissioner William Mul- doon, acting suddenly and unexpectedly. announced that they had revoked the boxing license issued to Schmeling and also the managers’ licenses of Joe Jacobs and Billy McCarney. No reason for the action was noted by the commission except that Far- ley said e blanket revocation speaks for itself.” Schmeling came into disfavor with the commission as a result of his re- fusal to comply with a contract drawn for him by his original manager, Arthur Bulow, who signed with Humbert J. Fugazy for a bout between Schmeling and any boxer Fugazy might mention. The German boxer was suspended in this State following his fight with Pau- lino. But subsequent dealings between Joe Jacobs, his manager by choice, and the Madison Square Garden Corporation caused the commission to warn the Garden officials against negotiating with a suspended fighter. Yesterday's action came as & bombshell and was construed to mean that no compromise would be made in the case of the foreign battler. Schmeling’s only way to regain the favor of the commission is to apply for reinstatement, agreeing at the same time to carry out the terms of the con- tract Bulow signed with Fugazy. OMAHA, July 27 (#)—Joe Jacobs, one of Max Schmeling’s managers, said here that the mapped-out tour of his fighter would be completed regardless of the New York Athletic Commission's action in barring the German heavy- weight. Jacobs sai dthat the commis- sion’s ruling “does not affect us a bit except in New York.” “We can’t say much until we get back to New York and find out what it's all weight. Jacobs said that the commis- sion,” he declared. “They know why we can't go through*with Phil Scott. Any- way, the big fight for Max will not be held in New York. It will go to Chicago, Montreal, Detroit or Jersey City.” VETERAN PEDESTRIAN TO CIRCLE BASES HERE Dan O'Leary, 80-year old walker, will -m to circle the bases six times in five utes tomorrow at Clark Griffith Stadium, when the W and Cleveland nines clash.

CHICAGO, July 27.—Sammy Man- dell probably will enter the ring at Chicago Stadium August 2 favored to retain his world lightweight title, but Tony Canzoneri, the challenger, is gaining a great following by his work in preparation for the battle. When the match was made Mandell became a 2-to-1 choice over the former featherweight champion, but he now is no better than a 7-to-5 favorite. In spite of the intense heat yester- day both principals worked hard. | g Mandell did a stretch on the road and xed six rounds.

DUNDEE SUSPENDED BY MICHIGAN BODY Action Taken to Punish Him for Fouling Fields as He Lost Title. BY H. G. SALSINGER. DETROIT, Mich, July 27.—"Bingo” Brown, former foot ball coach and now head of the Boxing Commission of Michigan, has indefinitely suspended Joe Dundee from the boxing arents of Michigan and, automatically, from the boxing arenas of 26 other States, since Michigan is affiliated with the national boxing body. Dundee’s suspension resulted from his manner of losing the welterweight championship to Jackie Fields here last night when he twice hit Fields in the groin after being knocked down twice in the second round. He sent Fields to the floor, writhing in pain, and when Fields finally left the ring, after doctors had attended him, Jackie had to be ca! ried to his dressing room by his handlers. ‘The State Boxing Commission is under fire for not holding up Dundee’s money. The commission had an idea that this should be done, but upon in- vestigation it was discovered that Dun- dee had already gotten his money. He received $10,000 when he signed to ht Fields and he received the balance of $40,000 before he entered the ring. He refused to appear unless he got the money before going to his corner. Since Dundee already had the cash it was impossible to make him suffer financially. His suspension probably will not cut seriously into Dundee's plans. There is doubt whether Dundee will ever fight again as a welterweight, even if a promoter is found willing to ign B He had difficulty making the welter- weight 1limit of 147 pounds for Fields. It was officially announced that Dun- dee “just made the weight,” but no fig~ ures were given out. Dundee looked pounds heavier than Fields. Before the fight, Fields signed a con- tract to defend his title here within 90 days. He is gcheduled to meet Jimmy McLarnin in September in the same where he won his championship over PFlelds. Both were McLarnin and Fields were fighting as bantamweights. (Copyright, 1929, by North American News- ) sl sl ALTROCK IS SERIOUS.
