National Leaguers 6-to-5 Favorites : Bluege and Myer Held in High Regard SCHUMACHER B, REASONFOR 0003 Giants’ Ace Enters Dream Tilt With Ten Straight Victories in Hand. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Edi LEVELAND, July 8.—By land, lake and air an army of base ball fans descended upon | Cleveland today from all parts of the country to witness the third annual parade of the major league all-stars. Barring & bad turn of weather and subject to last-minute switches in the line-ups for the big show. a capacity crowd of 85,000 was expected to jam the Cleveland Stadium, big- gest ball park in the United States, | to see at least $2.000.000 worth of the game's choicest talent perform. | Definite developments overnight assured the appearance of “Prince Hal” Schumacher, ace right-hander | of the league-leading New York Na-| tionals, and Mel Harder, right- handed ace of the Cleveland Indians, in the pitching roles when the curtain rolls up for the record-breaking spec- tacle. Schumacher to Start. Y A process of elimination, includ- ing the use of Carl Hubbell of the Giants and Dizzy Dean of the champion Cardinals in vesterday's regular-season games, Schumacher was nominated to make his All-Star debut and pitch as long as he can keep the Americans under control. | The exponent of the “sinker ball” was one of the big reasons why the Nationals ruled 6-to-5 favorites to turn the tables and take their first All-Star decision. Schumacher has 10 consecutive league victories under his belt and boasts the most effective record so far of any flinger in either major circuit Harder, pitching hero of last vear's All-Star victory for the Americans definitely was named last night for the starting assignment by Mickey | Cochrane., manager of the Detroit Tigers and field boss of the junior league's forces. Not only that, but Cochrane said Harder would stick as long as he was needed on the firing line. For relief sharpshooting. Coch- rane has Lefty Gomez of the Yankees his old sidekick, Lefty Grove of the Red Sox. as well as two Tiger right- handers, Tommy Bridges and School- boy Rowe. Bridges originally was slated for the sta Ruth and Averill Missing. IONSPICUOUSLY missing from the fleld of action this year were the hitting heroes of the two previous American League triumphs, Babe Ruth and Earl Averill. Ruth, whose home | run provided the winning margin in 1933, was due to scan the proceedings from the press box. Averill. clouting Cleveland outfielder who furnished the | big punch at the Polo Grounds last year in the pinches, is on the shelf with hand injuries caused by a fire- cracker. The Americans appeared further handicapped by the absence of their new home run king, big Hank Green- berg of the Tigers. By some curious reasoning, Greenberg was not even named on the 20-man squad, thereby putting it strictly up to Lou Gehrig of the Yankees to stage a comeback Gehrig has yet to make a hit in the all-star competition but he is still the unanimous choice for first base, with one of his rivals, Jimmie Foxx. slated to play third for the second straight year. The line-up of the Nationals not only shaped up as considerably stronger than last vear but looked to have a marked edge over the Ameri- | cans in offensive strength. Such sluggers as Mel Ott of the Giants, Arby Vaughan of the Pirates, now | leading both leagues at bat. and Pep- | per Martin of the Cardinals were not | in last year's starting line-up. To | help offset these gains in rival power, the Americans planned to counter by assigning _three slugging newcomers, Indian Bob Johnson and Roger Cramer of the Athletics and Joe Vos- mik of the Indians, to the outfield ramparts. Cramer was considered a | likely replacement for the veteran Al | Simmons of the White Sox, who has | been in a hitting slump and on the bench for a week. Bill Walker, veteran southpaw of the St. Louis Cardinals, was approved tonight by major league officials as a substitute for Van Lingle Mungo, Brooklyn righthander. on the all-star pitching staff of the Nationals. | Mungo suffered an injury to a finger on his pitching hand several days ago and reported he would be unable to play today.

But Capital fans are going to see him in right fleld regularly | for quite a spell. | *“Yes confesses Manager Bucky Harris, “I'll have to admit T am a little disappointed in Miles. However, | I'm not going to pass judgment on one game. Maybe he was scared to| death fter all he is only 22 years| old | “It's pretty tough,” Bucky added,| reflectively, “breaking into the big show for the first time. A fellow sometimes is tensed and there's the devil to pay. But I got Miles up here | to play regularly and he is going to! be in the game every day until I| definitely find out just how good he is. “We're looking over 1936's prospects now and Miles is one of these.” Fans With Bases Loaded. | TH‘E youngster, & lean, rangy gardener, debutted yesterday as the Yanks crushed the Nationals in | the final game of their series, 11 to 1. | Right off the reel Miles was given a | tough chance and fate played not so | kindly with the boy. | At bat, after smashing a single in | his first trip to the plate, he rolled | out harmlessly and then went down | swinging on his last two tries. His first whiff, in the fifth inning, ended the frame with the bases loaded. His second strikeout was on three pitched | balls, two of which seemed a little doubtful. Miles was not the only disappoint- ment to the customers, however. Buck Newsom was on the slab for the Na- tionals after an absence of six weeks, and the talkative right-hander took a lacing. But the importance of New- | som’s beating, t00, was minimized by Harris. Newsem O. K.—Harris, “] DIDN'T expect a great ball game from Newsom right off the bat,” declared the Griffs' boss. “Here the fellow has been laid up with a frac- tured kneecap for weeks., He isn't strong, and his arm isn't in shape. He can’t be expected to go right out in | a game and win it unless he gets mighty good batting in back of him. ! “Newsom did all right, I thought. | He has to begin all over again, and 3 vesterday's game was a big step toward { regaining his form. One or two more | games, and he should be ready to get a flock of victories for us." Harris' decision to leave Miles in| right field causes considerable specu- | lation as to which of Washington's | | present outfielders will sit on the| | bench. For the time being it will be | Johnny Stone, according to Harris, | who hasn't definitely decided, how- | ever, Stone is outhitting both Hemie[, Manush and Jake Powell, but there is | little likelihood of Powell's coming out | of the game. It is quite probable that eventually Johnny will alternate with Manush unless the big Dutchman suddenly improves at bat. | Yanks’ Homers Timely. | JROTH Miles and Newsom were off to | poor starts. A high wind and mental indecision hindered the rookie | outfielder, and Miles, in turn, didn't help Newsom, who might have gotten away with a fair game but for two timely Yankee home runs and a misjudged fly by Miles. With two out and two runners onf base as a result of walks in the first inning, Tony Lazzeri lifted a short fly to right field. Miles misjudged the ball, but found it again, only to hesitate a second time and look at | Buddy Myer, who was yelling for him to take it.

BY JOHN LEVELAND, July 8 —The smell of ivory is everywhere in this handsome town—Judge Lan- dis is dishing out decisions at the Hotel Cleveland—Judge Fuchs is taking bids in the public square—Lar- 1y MacPhail is talking night ball in the lobbies—Billy Evans is dusting off the “Standing Room Only” sign— there were 10 layers of dust on it, concealing the remains of three an- cient civilizations—they expect 85,000 customers at the stadium—a very big crowd, any way you slice it—and the all-star ball game is about to begin to commence. In the general excitement the city of Cleveland is trying hard to forget its own troubles (otherwise known as the Cleve- land base ball club). It has been declared a civic offense to mention the Indians at all during the next couple of days. You can mention Joe Vosmik and Mel Harder if you want to, because they oelong to the all-star squad—but everything else, including the standing of the club and the result of that last series | with Detroit, is verboten. Babe Creates an Sensation. HE all-star fever was just reaching its height when Babe Ruth climbed off the morning train from New York. Your correspondent’s safari, including one red-cap and two costiy pieces of luggage, took a long detour to follow the Babe around the depot. The red- cap made several game attempts to touch the hem of the Babe's coat, just for luck. “That's Babe Ruth,” he explained, “here for the big ball game.” “Yes,” said your correspondent huffily, “I saw him on the train. It is indeed, beyond the shadow of a doubt, the Babe. And Mrs. Babe. Proceed to the nearest taxicab.” We proceeded, and, in a short time, were laying our fingers on the public pulse. There seems to be a feeling, among the ball barons and the pave- ment experts alike, that the National League will climb over its worthy op- ponent this time, avenging, with 6 per cent interest, the defeats of the last two years. Mr. Frankie Frisch has accumulated a strong and vicious squad, while Mr. Mickey Cochrane has omitted this guy and that guy from his ball club and has lost that guy and this through injury. The chief points against Mr. PRESS BOX LARDNE Cochrane appear to be that he passed up his own Henry Greenberg in favor of Lou Gehrig, and ignored Eric Mc- Nair and Luke Appling in favor of gilt-edged Joe Cronin, the Boston brain-pan | The indictment charges further that the said Cochrane willfully omitted from his team an outfielder fleet enough to cover most of the huge! Cleveland orchard, Wallie Moses. Mr. | Cochrane might plead in reply that he took another fleet outfielder, Doc Cramer, from the same club, but that will do him no good at all in the face | of the final, damning charge that he | allowed Earl Averill to wound him- self with a firecracker and Bill Dickey to strain his back. Mickey certainly should have remembered to warn Averill about firecrackers. | Good Will Puzzles Magnates. S MATTERS stand, then, the Na. tional League club is the favorite. | But this game is not a betting proposi- | tion. It's a financial proposition, a ' carnival proposition, and a good will proposition. It is also John D. Rocke- feller's birthday anniversary, but we | can skip that if the rival managers | are_willing to skip it too. | The question of good will came up for discussion before the magnates assembled here to watch the game. The magnates tried to figure out a |way of pleasing the fans, the ball players, and the box office at one and | the same time. They didn't get very | !rnr, but they produced some quaint notions. For the sake of everybody's feel- ings, they want to give the all-star | vote back to the fans next year. But | }lhe,\"re just a little afraid that v.he‘ | fans are incompetent to pick a per- fect ball club, so they proposed that | eighteen players be elected to each | squad by public vote and five by the | vote of the managers. It taks a scheme like this to make any meeting of base ball tycoons official. | This year's contest, with the players | | picked by the men who know them | best, should prove something one way {or another about the advantages of different kinds of voting. Also, it will prove that a nine-inning base ball | game can draw some 85000 people | when the plant is big enough, which | will prove in turn that base ball still holds a slight margin over squash | racquets as our national pastime. | (Copyright. 1935, by the North American Newspaper Alliance.

BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, Jr. Associated Press Sports Writer. NE of the most anoying things about Frank Frisch's job of managing the Oardinals must be that it's so hard | to stay angry at Dizzy Dean. The elder brother of the famous pitching pair has developed quite a | habit of getting himself in wrong with the manager and the fans by displays of temperament, but each time he pitches his way back into their good graces. Last month he had a row with his | teammates in Pittsburgh, and the fans tossed lemons at him when he returned, only to forget their anger in their pride over his pitching. Yesterday they weren't prepared to toss anything more damaging than resounding boos, when Diz relieved Jess Haines in the fourth inning of the opening game against the Reds— his first appearance after his recent exhibition game ‘“rebellion” at St Paul. Diz Checks Red Rally. UT old Diz checked the Cincinnati rally and gave only three hits through the rest of the game while the Cards won 9 to 4. Brother Paul followed him and outpitched Paul Derringer with the aid of enemy errors | for a 5-to-1 victory. The double triumph settled the Cards firmly in second place, seven games behind the Giants, who re- covered from two defeats to trim Brooklyn 9 to 2. Mel Ott’s eighteenth | home run, made with the bases full, | played a big part in the Giant victory, | which finally brought Carl Hubbell | his tenth win of the season. The Cubs regained third place,! pounding Cy Blanton and four Pitts-| burgh hurlers for 14 hits and winning, 13 to 1, as Bill Lee gave only seven blows. | The Phillies completed a shake-up in the standing by trouncing the Braves 9 to 1 behind Curt Davis' six- hit flinging and moving into sixth place ahead of Cincinnati. Tigers Maintain Fast Pace. THE Tigers continued to dominate the American League by slamming down the Browns, 12 to 5, although they were outhit 15-14. Julius Solters walloped three home runs to account for all the St. Louis tallies 5 It was the tenth straight victory for Detroit, but it failed to reduce the Yankees' one-game margin, for the league leaders bowled over the Nationals. | The other clubs broke even in double-headers without altering the standings.

It took nerve, colder than the middle of an iceberg to gamble a big part of her tennis reputation after two years' absence from competition, knowing in advance just what the odds would be. One wonders just what twisted thoughts were running through Mrs Moody's mind as Helen Jacobs came up for the kill at the decisive point that meant set, match and champion- ship. For the battle at this eritical moment was out of Mrs, Moodys reach. Strangely enough, the older entry, who had been away from the court for nearly two vears, was in the bet- ter physical shape, and this told the story down the stretch. “Swimming has been a big factor in building me up again,” Mrs. Moody said before she sailed. “There were times when T almost lived in the water to develop back, arms and legs.” Yet the margin of defeat and vic- tory was so thin that it would be a shame not to have a return meeting at Forest Hills in the next U. S. women's championship. Mrs. Moody was un- certain about the U. S. title hunt over here, but it was at Forest Hills that the storm first broke and the trouble started. After what happened at Wimbledon, where the final result rocked and wavered along an invisible wire, another stand at Forest Hills next month would turn this cham- pionship into one of the tennis classics As it is, the ghost of that lost kill— with victory riding on one of the easiest chances of the match—will haunt Miss Jacobs for a long time. Only another opportunity could wipe out part of the sting which memory carries year after year. Sport shouldn’t be that important. but that's the way it is when the spotlight is blazing. As the case now stands, Mrs. Mocdy needs no further proof in her behalf She has written one of the greatest chapters in the history of sport. An Inside Angle. | ”l‘H’ERE is an inside angle connected with Mrs. Helen Wills Moody's arrival in the final stand at Wimble- don that is not generally known This concerns Harry Hillman, Dart- mouth’s track coach, foot ball trainer and all-around handy man Some years ago, Bill Tilden told me they were not able to sense the point of attack or defense in time to get there ahead of the next stroke. This forced a hurried, misdirected return. “It is important,” Tilden said, “to | figure in advance just where youf | should be on your next stroke and get | Mayfair Laundry soft ball team, 15-3, | to 0. with a sensational fielding dis- there in a hurry so that you will be| behind the hurling of Baratti, who Harry Hillman had the same idea for his Dartmouth tennis team. He taught them methods of quick starting. He worked them in track shoes to help develop speed. Before Wimbledon, he applied this same system to Helen Wills Moody. He showed her how to get started at greater speed—how to move in swiftly —how to zig-zag—when occasion | demanded. | He worked with her as he worked with Dartmouth wack stars, with Dartmouth's backs. | One of the main fundamentals of all sport is starting speed. If you get away slowly, usually you are too late, no matter what your secondary speed may be. This is especially true of foot ball, tennis and base ball. It is true of track sprinters. This was the angle that Harry Hillman was so anxious to give Mrs. Moody. | | Starting Speed and Timing. ROBABLY the fastest starter that foot ball ever knew was William Heston of Michigan. Hwwv do you get that way? Fielding Yost, the Michi- gan mandarin, tells us that Heston in his prime alwavs could beat Archie Hahn the first 40 yards in any race And Archie Hahn was one of the best, 100-yard sprinters the game ever has known. He was the top—the main peak—in his time But for the first 40 yards. Heston could beat him—and it is the first 10 vards that counts in foot ball. It's that jump that counts. Along the line of sizing up the point of next appearance, we give you Tris Speaker. ‘The Gray Eagle had an uncanny sense of knowing where the next drive was coming. It might be left center or right center—it might be just back of second base. Usually he was on the spot—waiting for the ball. Tris could tell in that first | | flash of the swing just where | his next move should be. | | It was part instinct and part con- | centration on his job. This also was a big factor in Bill Tilden's play. Bill at his best, when the old legs were full of spring, usually was w at the right spot. They might keep him busy at cross-court work, but rarely was he caught off guard | Mrs. Moody always has had a fine | instinct for the next stop or the next stand—but there were many times | that the main trouble with most tennis | when she lacked the starting speed | players was due to one major fault— needed to carry her there. | | (Copyright. 1935. by the North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc) MAYFAIR LAUNDRY BOWS. | The Independents defeated the! play behind Ted Lyons.
