B—2 S PORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1930. SPORTS. Ruth in Big Set Here, Despite Injury : U. S. Women Battle for Wimbledon Title TORN FINGER FALLS T0 KEEP BABE IDLE Game Star Sticks in Yank Line-up—Griff Pitchers Ready for Series. BY JOHN B. KELLER. 'HIS big series between Na- tionals and Yankees, due to start with a double-header | this afternoon, will have in it about the gamest and most | gritty player in base ball. Babe Ruth will be in the New York line-up, according to information from the Shawkey camp, despite the loss of a fingernail from his left hand only last Wednesday. The Babe showed his gameness | and grit by playing through the | contest yesterday in Philadelphia | and he'll be in there again today | with an injury that would have | forced many another out of ac- tion. Ruth likes base ball, and although the outstanding player in the game to- day he is one of the greatest team players in the profession. He's a fighter, too. It takes an extraordinary hurt to make him retire when is club is not going anywhere in particular. With the Yanks in the race as they are now, though, it seems nothing short of the loss of an arm or leg would keep the Babe out of the line-up. Right after he was injured when his throwing hand was caught in the wire screen before the right-field bleachers in Yankee Stadium as he endeavored to make a catch, it was announced Ruth probably would be out of play for @ week. And In Philadelphia yesterday he did not _participate in the pre-game practice. But when game time arrived there was the Babe, with finger thickly bandaged, ready for battle. Even though every time he handled the ball and every time he gripped the bat_the pain shooting from finger end up his left arm must have been intense, the Babe stuck to his task to the finish. He's that way, is Ruth. AKING second place from the Na- tionals in the current series of four games will not be done easily by the ‘Yankees, if it is done at all. To leave here Sunday night in the runner-up post the New Yorkers would have to| bag three of the contests. That's no light affair, the way the Nationals have e WS gton piteners are well pre. ‘The W1 n TS g ine ahead. ger would employ Pred Marberry and Sam Jones this_afternoon in matinee. Tomorrow he is Lloyd Brown or Bump the Yanks. Even though Bump pitched 10 innings as late as Wednesday, it is believed he could come back strongly with only two days' rest. The Sunday pitching very likely will be done by Al Crowder. As Al has pitched since don- ning a Washington uniform he should be able to give the hard-hitting New Yorkers a troublesome afternoon. ANAGER JOHNSON regards this series with the Yankees as all- im) nt. “If we trim this New York club here I believe we will carry on a great fight to the finish.” he de- clared this morning. “Trimming the Yanks would add greatly to the confl- dence of our club, and that would not hurt at all. I know these Yankees have a lot of power. They hit savagely. But 1 think we have the better pitching and look to our pitchers to stop much of that hard hitting. It ought to be a great series and we are going into it with the feeling that we are the better club and can take the Yanks.” ARLEY BOSS, young flirst-sacker, has been sent to Reading International League on & 24-hour option. ALEXANDRIA SWIMMERS STAGE MEET TOMORROW : July 4,—?“ swimming races have arranged for tomorrow at 3:30 in the municipal pool, opening a series of Summer swims. ‘Tomorrow’s races will include the | 100-yard unlimited free style, 50-yard boys’ free style, 50-yard women's free e, fancy diving for men, fancy div- ing for women and open obstacle race.

BY FRANCIS E. STAN. NE of the most puzzling cases on the sandlots is the failure of the Union Printers, last year's champs of the Govern- ment League and National Typo title holders, to click in their customary style. The Printers, though always known | as slow starters, have confounded the s0-called experts by their complete in- ability to win consistently and, though | the second half of the Government | League is still in its infancy, it appears that the Typos will have to fight dou- bly hard to reach the top, for two of their mainstays, Tuck Dalglish, third baseman, and Jimmy Dewhurst, hard- hitting_outfielder, are on the injured 1ist and may not be available for some time to come. Dalglish, though never a dangerous hitter, was a tower of strength on the defense. Tuck is nursing an infected | foot, while Dewhurst, who has done | much of the little hitting displayed by | is out with a badly wrenched knee, which he suffered last week while sliding into third base in the . P, O. game. ‘The Printers, who boast of the small- la; the wil m"' step along right i to keep in the race. If the bat of Mal Simons, which has been more or less dormant thus far | this season, would come to life and | bang ‘em out in the customary man-| ner the Printers might yet merge from | this slump and have something to say | lboutln ‘where the second-half pennant going. Simons, in fact, is only one of the regulars who have failed to produce the necessary punch. Charley Hol- brook, another hard-hitting outfielder, has failed to hit his stride, as has Des- per, Edwards and Waple. The Printers, a8 & team, finished last among the Government League teams in batting, which is no way for the defending champs to act. S0 unless the Typos make s change | for the better it is extremely likely | that they will have little voice in de-| clding the winner of the second-half | champlonship. Prom the West Washington Baptist | standpoint the first half of the George- town Church League is over and the| championship crown rests upon the collective brows of the Baptists. Prom Grace Eplscopal's view, how- ever, there is much to be said yet re- garding the title. Grace carried out its threat to be absent yesterday when the final game of the play-off series was to be played as five of its nine regulars are out of town for the Fourth. West Washington appeared on the field and claimed the only shut-out victory of the league, declaring itself the winner by the forfeit score of 9 to 0. To some Sunday School League fans it's all over, but to others it just means that all the fireworks won't be shot off today. The rest, they say, will splutter when all of the Gracemen return. It's bad business to let all of the catchers on a ball club go on their va- cation at the same time. The Big Print Shop found that out yesterday when Western Electric pasted the Printers all Failure of Champion Printers Puzzle to Sandlot Dopesters Both Simpson and Zip Tweedale, the catchers, were away vacationing and as a result Dave Crockett, Gimp Shipman, Davis and Stumpy Parker took turns with the mask and mitt on. Crockett, shortstop, proved himself quite versatile when he pitched, played first base, center fleld, third base and caught. But all the shifting in the world | couldn't win the game for Judd & | Detweiler, for a little pitcher, Lester Robey, throwing a curve almost con- tinually, held the Printers down, while his mates mauled the offerings of Crockett, Davis and Brown. EVANSVILLE TWIRLER STRIKES OUT 20 MEN SPRINGFIELD, 11, July 4 (#).—Tom | Bridges isn't experiencing hard times with his strike-out speciality. \ The 19-year-old Evansville pitcher | recently struck out 19 batters. Last | night he beat his record by fanning 20 | Springfield batsmen and running his | total for the Three-Eye League season to 155. His best innings against Springfleld were the sixth and seventh when he whiffed six in a row. SANDLOTTERS MAKE MOST OF HOLIDAY Sandlot diamonders hereabout were enjoying themselves with a will today.

They successfully defended their title yesterday when they won by default over Lieut. David D. Hedekin and Lieut. Stanley K. Robinson. A .snl;ll.ned ankle suffered by Lieut. Hedekin in the second set forced him and Lieut. Robinson to quit, the match automatically going to their rivals. Hedekin stumbled in going after a side- line shot. He had to be carried from the court. Battling was proceeding at a furious pace when Lieut. Hedekin was hurt. The Van Vliet-Finley pair had won the first set 7—5, and the second stood 13—12 in favor of their foes. Gen. Edward L.

No fewer than | | | competitors, while two holes in one | grace the board in which the results are spread. ‘While the first hole, which is more than 500 yards long, has failed to yield a single eagle 3, the lengthy tenth has provided three eagle 4s. These have fallen to John E. McClure, Clarence B. Murphy and R. Lester Rose. Aces have been scored by O. M. Hester on the ninth hole, and on the eighteenth by McClure, while M. Parker Nolan, the seige-gun hitter of the club, banged one of his long tee shots so close to the cup at the eighteenth that he canned the putt for an eagle 2. Scattered through the cards are great numbers of birdies, with nearly every contestant having scored a bird 3 on the eighteenth. E. M.
