Base Ball, Bowling Griffs Get Sewell in Swap With Tribe : Pacini, Vivien Burns Top Bowling Victors SPENCER GIVEN UP FOR CATCHER, CON Fourth Trade in Month Gets Washington Long-Hitting Right-Hander.

In | a shuffling of catchers, Luke Sewell | noon block he pounded out a set of 682, | only two of the 15 games did he fall coming from the Cleveland club to Washington in exchange for Roy Spencer. According to Griffith's announce- ment, Cleveland sends along with Sew- ell an unrevealed amount of cash, ‘When the deal was first conceived, the Nationals were to get with the catcher George Detore, an infielder. Cleveland, though, was compelled to ship Detore to the Toledo club, so substituted money for the player. The swap was made with the full knowledge and consent of Joe Cronin, the boy manager of the Nationals, says Griffith. The young pilot talked over the deal with the club prexy here last month, it seems. The trade was some time in the making. When Griffith was swapping players right and left in New York last month there were rumors of & Spencer- for-Sewell deal, but the Wasnington president then denied he was making any effort to dispose of the catcher, who had been with the four seasons. However, Cleveland club ofiicials were not so secretive in the matter. In fact, they openly admitted they would like to get hold of Spencer. COLD figures indicate the Washington club got the better of the deal. It gets in Sewell a player a year younger and a harder hitter than Spencer. Sewell also is a clever, steady receiver, certainly as capable behind the bat as Spencer. He has thrown as well as Spencer, too, and has been faster afoot, Then there’s the bundle of cash that comes from Cleveland along with Sewell. That's more than a mere something these days. During his service with the Indiahs, Sewell, a right-hand swinger, batted at a better clip than did Spencer in his term with the Nationals. In a dozen campaigns with the Cleveland club, Luke pounded for a career average of .260. Roy in his four seasons with the ‘Washington club clouted for just .251. During the past season, too, Sewell excelled Spencer in attack. In 15 es less than Spencer, Luke smacked for an average of .253, while Roy’s best 'was .246. Sewell was by far the longer hitter in 1932, collecti 20 doubles, 2 triples and 2 homers. Spencer helped himself to nine two-baggers and one homer, but falled three-baser. Sewell's batting meant more to the Indians than Spencer’s to the Nationals. In his 87 games, Luke bat- ted in 52 runs. Spencer in 102 games drove across 41. Sewell worked op- to connect for a Roy. Perhaps he was swing- ing a bit more freely. Afield the past season, both toiled at the same clip. Each finished with a flelding average of .978, which didn't place them 50 high among the American league receivers in that Tespect. Spencer let four pitches get away from him, while Sewell was charged with two passed balls. UKE SEWELL cames of an Alabama base ball family. His elder brother Joe, now with the Yankees, made his big league debut with the Indians after getting his start in organized base ball at New Orleans. Last year a cousin, Truett Sewell, had a pitching trial with the Detrolt Tigers, and is due to get another in the Spring. Luke was born in Titus, Ala, on January 15, 1901, so he will be 32 years old next Sunday. He is a sturdily-built athlete, standing nearly 5 feet 10 inches, and weighing around 170 pounds when in playing trim. Right from the University of Ala- bama, where he starred in _several sports, Luke jumped to the Indians He joined the Cleveland club in the Summer of 1921, but was behind the bat in only three games that season Not until 1924 did he toil right regu- larly, and then he entered just 63 en- gagements. In 1926, though, Luke was made the Tribe's first-string receiver He participated in 126 games that year, and in each of 4 of the Indians' cam- paigns since was in more than 100 games. Luke never has been & .300 hitter, but back in 1927 he soared to .293. His best, year since was 1931, when he hit for an average of .275 ‘The past season Luke had a bone or two in his right hand broken dur- ing a game with the Nationals in Cleve- Jand and was forced out of action sev- eral weeks. The hand mended well however, and after his return to the line-up Luke experienced no difficulty in handling a base ball.

The former record of | 11,930 was held by Johnny Fyfe of Law- | | rence, Mass., who hung up the mark in | 1930. By tacking on 2 final set of 673 tonight he broke his own 15-game record of 2,003, established a year ago at the Lucky Strike alleys in Wash- | ington. ;HENRY (HOBNAIL) FRANCIS, whose | | bowling reputaticn largely has | been confined to Richmond, was | | second with the excellent total of 1989. | | Despite Tronsky's phenomenal shooting, Francis clung closely for 10 games, be- |ing only 56 behind at the end of the | tenth string.

Sharkey was probably the great- est rival of James J. Jeffries. He is 60 years old. He fought James J. Corbett a draw in San Francisco in 1896, and two years later won from him in New York. He also won from Bob Fitzsimmons on a foul in San Prancisco. It was the San Francisco fight in which Referee Wryatt Earp enforced his decision with a brace of six shooters. A riot followed. Of late years Sharkey has been connected with various race tracks fleld - es, In 7 seconds flat. ‘Wil Allen of Erasmus Hall High School, Brooklyn, was second, a step | back, with Ira Singer, former national indoor sprint champion, third.

Yes sir, gentlemen, he’s taken another shot just when the trade was beginning to think he had folded up, and was | ready to stand pat for the season. | Whew! How that man Griffith has been sniping with his six | Uncle Clark | shooter these last three weeks. Four big deals in less than that | one here along the Potomac. But we knew Uncle wasn't through | shooting, gentlemen. We saw him draw a bead on Luke Sewell up there in make an eyelash flicker. | Now he's got his man, and a batting order that ought to make each pitcher in not only the American League, but both of ‘em, stutter in his boots when he reads it. | And he may not be through, either. No sir! Up there where the buildings give you a pain in the neck, Uncle said: “I'm going to swap, trade, bu sell, and make speeches, if meces- | sary, to give Washington a first- ‘ | class base ball club—a winning com- bination. When I get it together Cronin can take it, and make it hus- tle. But I'm not through bartering until I get that winning combine.” S0 I can only tell you that Uncle has | backed up everything he promised. If he were to buy Babe Ruth tomorrow morning I would not be startled. Uncle gets the breaks in the Sewell- | than Roy. On the defense it is an even-Stephen proposition, more or less. But in something that does mot show in the figures and, to me, proves a whole lot, is the spirit of the two players. Il take Luke for fire and spirit. Roy has plenty of it, no doubt, but his heat on the play- ing field was only simmering last year. Maybe it was due to a bad start caused by an attack of malaria fever at Bilozi in the Spring. But he did not have the hustle. Sewell, under new colors, and a bit b | GAMES | many weeks, three in Bablyon and | younger now, too, ought to brighten up that corner.

Roy did not prove to be the boy last year at a time when more healthy smacking by the club would have put | Gotham, and miss by just enough to|it up there neck and neck with the Yanks. In extra base sloughing Luke has it over Roy like a tent. He belted in 20 two-base hits against the ex-Griffman’s nine. He banged for a_ total of 106 bases against the former National's ag- gregate of 90. Sewell hit for a season’s average of .253 against Roy’s .246 mark. Both backstops were out of the game for periods during the last season.

ON THE SIDE LINES “With the Sports Editor By DENMAN THOMPSO ABBLING in the ivory | market is just like | speculating on the Stock Exchange—it's a | gamble. Thus does Clark Griffith sum up trading in base ball. And he should know, for few have been as active in the bartering of talent during a connection with the game extending over more than two score years. As first a lowly private in the ranks, then successively a star pitcher, manager in both méajor leagues and finally club presi- dent, the Capital City chief- tain has had the opportunity to study the swapping of tal- ent from all angles and despite its vicissitudes heartily in- dorses the practice. His penchant for trafficking in performers which served further to emphasize the ap- propriateness of the sobriquet “Old Fox,” earned through his canniness as a moundsman, finally led to the appellation of “Trader Horn.” But the snowy-thatched mogul considers himself no wizard at driving bargains and notwithstanding the general commendation of his latest transactions is constrained to see how they turn out before patting himself on the back. R slugger in Goose Goslin, a thoroughly seasoned flychaser in Fred Schulte and a trio of experienced pitchers in Wally Stewart, Earl White- hill and Jack Russell, to aug- ment an already formidable array, some of the scribes en- vision the Nationals suf- ficiently bolstered to unhorse the champion Yankees. Griff hopes they are right, - material you actually are will- ing to turn over are settled upon,” he added, explaining that the ground work for his recent big swap with St. Louis was laid a year ago. His best deal Griff regards as the one he engineered for the acquisition of Roger Peckin- paugh in that three-cornered affair with the Athletics and Red Sox, which cost him $50,- 000 in cash as well as Outfield- er Bing Miller, Infielder Frank O'Rourke and Pitcher Jose Acosta and also involved the transfer from Philadelphia to Boston, by way of Washington, of Joe Dugan. “We needed a star short- stop,” observed Griff. “That’s what we got in Peck and he meaht a pennant for us, al- though we had to wait three years to land it.” HAT was in 1924. The fol- T lowing season Griff fig- ured his pitching would have to be strengthened if the championship was to be re- tained, and turned the trick by obtaining Stan Coveleski, re- garded as all through irf Cleve- land, for Outfielder Carr Smith and Pitcher Byron Speece, and the almost equally ancient Dutch Ruether from Brooklyn for the waiver price. For the Nationals in 1925 this pair of “washed-up” vet- erans turned in no fewer than 38 victories, while losing only 12 decisions. Griff faltered when asked to name his poorest trade, because “I've made so many of them,” but finally decided it was the shifting to Boston of Buddy Myer for Topper Rigney early in the 1927 campaign. It was this which led to his numerically biggest, when, EGAINING a dependable Pacini rolled 677 from scratch and Mrs. Burns, with a handicap of 25 pins, totaled 564. Besides $50 in cash each will receive a gold medal. Runner-up to Pacini in the men's division was M. C. Jones, who qualified at Convention Hall and in the finals rolled 666 with a handicap of 28 sticks. Carl Betz of the Rendezvous, with 28 pins help, and Ed Connick, a Con- vention Hall qualifier, with a 10-pin handicap, tied for third place with 658. ATHERINE QUIGLEY, a consistent tournament prize winner, trailed Mrs. Burns in the women's division with 556 from scratch and Mildred Miskelly, with 10 gift maples, was third was 549. ©Of 19 prize winners in the men's division, only two rolled from scratch. The other besides Pacini was Arlie ‘Webb, southpaw, who specializes in freak records, who shot 642. Webb is believed to be the only duckpin bowler who has rolled a 200 game as well as a perfect flat score. Five of the 15 high girls had no handicaps.

It stilled ute terly the complaints of run-of-the- mine bowlers who in previous tourna- ments held it unfair to match them against experts on equal footing. On the other hand, no protest was re- ceived from any star. As much if not more pleased with the tournament,.than the bowlers were the alley owners and man- |agers. A preliminary was held at virtually every plant and for a week most of the business done accrued from the tournament. Nearly 500, represent- ing 25 per cent of the original field, rolled in the finals. The prize list, slightly revised from that originally announced, gave $480 to high scorers in the roll-off and $20 in special prizes for high games and sets from scratch in the preliminaries.
