, Sports News Bluege Hits .463 Since Two-Day Lay-Off : Shikat, Kalmiko CROWDER CERTAIN HE FINALLY IS FIT} Postponement of White Sox Opener Irksome to Liska, Kuhel and Myer. BY JOHN B. KELLER. HICAGO, May 20.—What a difference a two-day rest for Ossie Bluege made in his batting! In the first three weeks of the campaign ‘Washington’s third baseman was the weak member of the batting order. He found it difficult to get his eye on the ball, and when he did meet it he generally did so| with little power in his swing. So| after a particularly poor showing against the left-handed George ‘Walberg of the Athletics in Grif- fifth Stadium, Manager Johnson derricked Ossie. Idle two days, Bluege returned to the game in New York on May 6, and since has walloped the ball for a cool .463. | Bluege hes been in 10 games since | his lay-off and failed to drive the ball 1o safety in but one. That was the first game of the double-header in St. Louis last Sunday. But Sam Gray’s pitching 'was so geod then Bluege had plenty of company in the hitless class. ~All told, in the 10 engagements Bluege has col- lected 19 hits in 41 times at bat, his hits ranging in length from singles to ers. ‘The first day he got back into action Bluege slammed a double and a homer, and in only two of the nine games in which he has hit has he been held to a lone safety. Eleven singles, four doubles and as many homers have been clouted during his streak by this Na- tional, who was such a mark for op- pitchers early in the season. In to the plate In the 10 also has received three passes, been ‘hit once and once put down a sacrificial bunt. He has reac! base 26 times, only twice by forc- ing out a runner. And how this 10-game hitting streak the Nationals. has_hel, te nine times and clouting has been responsible for scoring of a dozen runs. That two- day rest certainly was great madicine for Ossie.

HICAGO, May 20.— Chicago’s Cubs, only a few weeks ago the toast of the city, today were the “roast” of the town. They have failed dismally on their current road trip and the fans, who started to forget all about Manager Joe McCarthy when they dashed away from the 1931 National League barrier like & Twenty Grand, are back booing and predicting all kinds of turmoil in the front office where Owner William Wrig- ley, jr., dreams of the world champion- ship base ball team he says he and the fans of Chicago must have, There is considerable doubt as to any “turmoil” in the Wrigley office today, but there isn't much doubt that Man- ager Rogers Hornsby would be called on to give his versicn of “what's wrong with the (ubs” when he confers with his chiefs Saturday. There isn't much doubt, either, that he will be requested to shake the club from top to bottom, if necessary, to put it back in the pen- nant race. Friction Rumors Denied. ‘The “Rajah” loser in six out of seven games so far on the Eastern invasion, back to Chi- cago Saturday and will go into a huddle with the Cub bosses almost as soon as he returns. As far as newspaper men, traveling with the club, can determine, rumors of personal disputes between the “Rajah” and his players have been as untrue as they have been numerous. In almost every city they have visited will bring his team, | Of Slips; Hornsby Shake-Up Order reports have filtered back and forth that Hornsby and some of the players, usually Hack Wilson, had quarreled. | Each rumor was denied, only to be re- vived in some other city, where it was denled again, and so on. Still the club hasn't been clicking, although its pitching, fielding and hit- ting have been better than the average and better than the team's percentage, which stood at the .500 mark today. The one big ailment so far appears to be in base running, which has been so slow that the Cubs threaten to set up a | new league record for supplying double- | play killings. Scribes Join Chorus. ‘When the Cubs dropped their fifth game of th: Eastern invasion yester- day,; even some of the newspaper men Jjoined the fans in the “anvil chorus.” i “Needless to say, the panic is pretty | much on in our little party of wander- | ers,” advised Ed Burns of the Chicago | Tribune. “It was even before the | ludicrous debacle today, as witness the | fact that there was a call at breakfast which sent the players to an early morning practice, an almost unheard- | o maneuver cn the Toad. " There also some of making the curfe w little earller.” o “Tonight found the Cubs wallowing around at the .500 mark,” wired Wayne tto of the Chicago Herald and Ex- aminer. “Guys like that ought to be ashamed of occupying a seat of some gocd deserving second division, team. They ought to go_home.” But a veteran Cub , who has fol- lowed the Bruins for years through despair and hope and glory, reflected: © “Pretty good at that. Why a year ago they were in fifth place. Today, ;hei' are in fourth with all their hard | luck.” Minor Leagues International League. Newark, 4; Buffalo, 1. ‘Toronto, 2. Rochester, 4; Baltimore, 2 (seven in- nings, rain).

ETROPOLITAN CLUB base ball team yesterday downed Chevy Chase Club, 10 to 2, in their snnual game for charity. Proceeds of the contest, which was staged on the Georgetown University diamond, went to Providence Hospital. So- clety was well represented. Provi- dence Hospital had an ambulance on the job, but there were no casualties. Among the Metropolitan players were Moorehead, Bayne, Garnett, Carlisle, De Sibour, Brooke, Newbold and Ellis, while Chevy Chase’s linc- up included Evans, Lewis, Long, Fuller, Parker, Mitchell, Cowan, Cady and Spencer. ‘Walter Johnson and Gabby Street, crack battery of the Washington base bal' team, both are on the hos- pital list. Johnson and Outflielder Clyde Milan are known among the other players as the “heavenly twins.” They are almost inseparable. They returned to the hotel at Cleveland yesterday after a shopping tour, both of them sporting new tan shoes, straw hats and lavender neckties. Those who predicted Joe Jackson, Cleveland outfielder, was a flash in the pan have been proved “all wet.” H.‘anfi clouting the ball for close to RING SHOW AT LOW PRICES GIVES KICK First Five Bouts Prove Good, While Ficucello Stops Warren in Final. BY WILBUR WOOD. EW YORK, May 20.—The first of the Madison Square Gar- den’s new talent boxing shows N must be admitted that the noble ex- periment turned out to be great stuff for the 4,000 fans who tock advantage of the opportunity to sit in a ringside seat, for $1.50 or elsewhiér& Yor as little as 50 cents. There wasn't & dud in the first five fights on the bill, but there were no knockouts and every well regulated box- ing show should have a knockout to satisfy the cavemen in the audience. ‘Well, they got one in the main event, a fast one, too, when Ralph Ficucello of Brooklyn stopped Ad Warren, former North Carolina foot ball player, in 1 minute 17 seconds of the first round. As the bell rang Warren came out te ring center in a half crouch and Ficucello greeted him with a left hook that spilled the collegian for eight.

A’s Showing and Tight Chase GAVE RIGHT SLANT ON PENNANT RACES in National Loop Bear Out Prophets. BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR., Associated Press Sports Writer, AJOR league base ball teams are busy these days proving that forecasts of a close race in the Na- tional League and the Athletics to win again in the American were correct. The St. Louis and New York National League clubs are battling for the lead only a half game apart. The Philadelphia Ameri- cans, while they have not been able to outdistance their leading rivals, are on top and have done their best to make it a runaway by winning 11 straight. The A's downed the Detroit Tigers, 5-0 yesterday behind the unbeatable pitching of big George Earnshaw. The Philadelphia right-hander gave just two hits while his teammates, by Al Simmons, made good use of nine blows off Waite Hoyt. Simmons, hitting in his seventeenth successive game, con- nected for a single, a double and a triple. The victory resulted in no gain for the A's, however, for their leading ri- vals, the New York Yankees, staged a comcback to hand' Cleveland its eleventh straight defeat, 8 to 6. The Indians, whose weakness i one of the season's puzzles, made a great attempt to break their losing streak by driving Charley Ruffing from the mound in the second inning, but Henry Johnson pitch- ed good relief ball and Clint Brown could not still the big bats of the Yanks in_the early innings. ‘Washingt n lost some ground, as rain stopped the game at Chicago. Wet grounds halted Boston and St. Louis. Timely slugging enabled the National e leaders, the Cardinals, and their strongest rivals, the Giants, to continue their race. The cards beat Brooklyn, 6 10 2, as the Robins falled to give Babe Phelps good support. They got only two runs on 11 hits off Hallahan and Derringer and made five errors. The Giants took things fairly easy against Oincinnati, using young Bill Mcrrell on the mound for the Tull game and holding Critz out of the line-up, but they won out easily, 9 to 3. The third place Boston Braves con- tinued their pursuit of the leaders by pushing Chicago deeper into fourth. Aided by thres Cub errors, the Braves scored eight runs in the first inning and {won out 9 to 5. “Ace” Elliott of the Phillles was in the hole again, but. this time it was not of his own making. He Telieved Jim EIlictt in the ninth inning With none out and the bases full ana retired the Piratés in time to save a 3 to 2 victory.

Too Relaxed in Saddle, By the Associated Press. ANSAS CITY, May 20.—The ranch-bred boys sit on the sidelines when the State University polo squad rides into action out in old Arizona. The business of urging a horse after a steer differs from mounted pursuit of a white willow ball with the varsity honor at stake. Ask Capt. G. R. Mauger, U. 8. A., coach of the Westerners “Not a man who ever rode the range is on the team,” Capt. Mauger sald as the squad prepared to re- sume & barnstorming trip to the Atlantic Coast today. “The boys from the ranches sit back relaxed and jog with the horses, which makes it difficult to hit a little thing like a polo ball. The real player rides forward on his stirrups.” The team stopped for a game with the Kansas C Country Club riders here yesterday, but the field was muddy and the match was can- celed. Capt. Mauger said the Arizona riders would not participate in the iotercolleglate championships at Cedarhurst, Long Island, June 13-20, despite the efforts of their “angel,” Will Rogers, who raised $2,500 for traveling expenses at a benefit show.

FGURES NOIGATE NEW PLL PEPPER Hitting Feats in American League More Numerous Than Last Year. By the Assoclated Press. HICAGO, May 20.— American League pitchers, except for a few slow curve-ball tossers, to- day admitted that the “deader” base ball was a pretty healthy sphere. A comparison of records from the current American League campaign with those up to May 20, 1930, reveals that in five cases out of six the present ball has a livelier habit than the dis- carded ball of a year ago. A year ago today there were 15 games in which one team scored 10 runs or more 8o far this season there have been 21, or 6 more. Last year at this time there -were 25 “big” innings in which a team scored 5 or more runs. To date in 1931’ there have been 4 more. ividual innings each. Again, up to May 20, turned in 21 games in ‘The exception is in shutouts.: Over the same period in 1930 only 7 shut- outs were turned in as compared with 10_this seascn. Players collecting five hits in one game 50 far this season were Joe Vos- mik of Cleveland, Al Simmons and George “Mule” Haas of the Philadel- phia " Athletics and Bill Dickey of the New York Yankees.
