i I i i e Sewell Great Factor in Nats’ Success : Red Sox Appear Definitely on Upgrade CEORGETON . KEEPING CLUB HIGH BY TIVELY HITTING = Drives Across Decisive Run in Fourth of Victories. Star Behind Bat. BY JOHN B. KELLER. HEN Clark Grifith engi- neered the deal last Winter that brought Luke Sewell and some cash to the Nationals from the Indians in exchange for Roy Spencer, he made the greatest trade of a long base ball trading career. That’s how good the deal looks now. Not only has Sewell as a catcher adequately replaced the departed “Spencer behind the bat, but he also has supplied the Nationals with a punch at bat that has done plenty to keep them right at the heels of the Yankees, still re- garded as the outfit to be beaten for a pennant despite their recent unsteadiness. Off to a slow start at bat, Luke has developed into a surprisingly strong hitter. He has brought his_clouting average from down in the .200 class to .310 in little more than two weeks, supplying his club with a punch in the lower part of its batting order where it had not had any in years. Incidentally, Spencer now is hitting well down in the .200 class with Cleveland. He has been a rangy hitter, too. With 2 total of 10 doubtes, he leads his club at making such hits. He also has banged a triple and two home runs. Luke has been 2 timely hitter. He slams when slams are needed which, after all, is the truest gauge of a| batter’s worth. Luke has driven across for the Nationals 18 runs. Only one other of the club, Joe Kuhel, has done as well. EHIND the bat, Sewell has been a truckhorse for toil. He has started in every one of the Na- tionals’ 3¢ games and has given a great account of himself. Luke has been relieved several times, but he has missed only 18 innings of action since he start of the season. . In the 34 games he has had 161 chances. Two errors have been chlrsed' against him. Once he pegged wildly atter picking up a bunt, yet he been particularly clever at pouncing on bunted bpalls and flagging runners. Once he threw wildly in an attempt to pick a runner off second base. Luke has been remarkably good at getting under foul lofts and able at making lays at the plate. P His flelding puvenge to date reads .588. That's hi‘l:‘e-nb:d: He ranks among. U 3 ceivers the Nationsls Tave had + tho Criffith regime and there have| been a number of good ones holding | up the Washington pitchers the last 20 years. T has been Sewell's recent hitting, I though, that has made him espe- valuable to his club.

When the A’s were here the last day of April, Sewell, with a double, sent in two runs for a late tie in a game the Nationals bagged in_overtime. When the Nationals were out West he batted in the decisive score -of their first win of the trip in a game against the Tigers. He went on & bat- ting spree in St. Louis to get nine hit§ in the first two games. the only games the Nationals took from the Browns and Sewell's batting in them contributed greatly to his club’s success.

BRENNER. OWN =at Norfolk, Va, the game warden is Davis A. Robertson. He is the Davy who used to play in the outfield for the Giants back in the days when Matty still was a pitching power and McGraw had no idea of retiring. Robertson’s duties in Norfolk are complicated by the fact that there is little game inside the city limits, | and that he is responsible for the | dog catching department. But his | DAVY ROBERTSON. present work seems to bs more lu- crative than the sporting goods store he ran for some years after retir- ing from base ball. Robertson was educated at North Carolina A. and M., and joined the Giants in 1912, In 1813 he was farmed out to Mobile and came back, to win the regular berth in right field. He was out there in the 1917 world series with the White Sox. Copsright, 18334 a NINE AGAN FAST Capital City Champs of 1932/ Will Be Bolstered With | High School Stars.

BARKER, Associated Press Sports Writer. | HERELL be no American League flag at Fenway Park this year, but the Boston Red Sox, subjected to terrific punishment for many years, definitely are on the up- grade.

Yawkey and Collins have done no | rackless spending, but slowly and sure- ly they've built up a really formidable club through the acquisition of South- | paw Lloyd Brown and Catcher Rick Ferrell from the St. Louis Browns, | George Pipgras, veteran_right-hander, | and Shortstop Bill Werber, from the | New York Yankees, and Allen (Dusty) | Cooke, fleet outfielder, from Newark. | Behind Pipgras’ seven-hit pitching, | the Red Sox whipped the Chicago White Sox yesterday, 3-2, for their third suc- cessive victory and drew to within balf a game of the seventh-place Detroit KICKING Predicted for HICAGO and Cleveland are proving that maybe there is not so much straw behind the ‘Western clubs’ ears as we thought.
