NATS TAKE DOUBLEHEADER 2. PITCHERS WASHI NGTON, D. C, SPORTS SECTION he Sunday St SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 14, 1935. Hayes Stars in Debut, Grszs Win Two : Baer Is Erased F rom F lgh_t Picture Travis, Miles Share Glory in Club’s First Double Victory of Year. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. MILLARD HAYES, whose mon- J icker smacks of a bank presi- | dent, but who in reality is a ® scrawny, wide-eyed kid from | the bumpy lots of the “bushes,” tasted base ball's biggest thrill yester- day at Grifith Stadium—and left a | swallow for the rest of this thirsty | township. | He started his first big league game and finished it—a winner. He got a hit, a meaningless single in the last in- | ning, but a hit just the same. But, | best of all, the 22-year-old kid helped | Bucky Harris' downtrodden Nationals | to accomplish & feat which to them'i 1s a most singular occurrence—win | & double-header. It never had been done before by | the Griffs this season and not even | the fact that only the poor Browus | were the victims could take the edge off those 11-to-7 and 10-to-4 tri- umphs. Verily. it was a new and im- | portant milestone in the 1935 fortunes | of the Griffith A. C. Buck Newsom, ably assisted and, at times. handicapped by his well-mean- ing mates, accounted for the initial | victory which in itself was a cause for rejoicing. inasmuch as it was New-| som’s first win since he busted his | kneecap on May 28. | But even the great Newsom faded into the background before the nearly five hours of base balling was ended Hayes—who prefers the handle of | “White: was the man of the hour and there were a couple more Chat- tanoogans who didn't exactly bring tears to Bucky Harris, Newsome “Hot” Despite Score. THERE was Cecil Travis, playing the | kind of game that justified Uncle | Clark Griffith’s lavish predictions. | ‘The old Lookout grad, who is all of | 21, achieved a new height of greatness | as he started the downfall of the Browns in the opener and led i, the complete disintegration in the r.sht-‘ cap. And then there was Dee Miles. the palooka of last Sunday, who suddenly became the new favorite of the bleacherites. What Travis didn't do to the Hornsbymen in an offensive | and defensive way young Miles, a 22- | year-old upstart, did. And when Griffith’s “kindergarten” | was through for the day they had the | | Nationals yapping at the heels of the | sixth-place Athletics once again on the strength of Washington's seventh and eighth wins over the Browns in | nine starts. | ‘The opener was more of a triumph | for Newsom than the score indicates because Capt. Buddy Myer left him- | self open for another suit for non- support in the ninth inning, when the Browns scored just enough runs to arouse the slumbering 4,000 in the pews. After permitting the Browns to take & 3-t0-0 lead in the fourth inning, Newsom settled down and faced only | 13 batters in the next four frames, while his mates were busy overcoming | the St. Louis lead. They did a good Job and so Newsom went into the ninth inning with an 11-to-3 edge. Then the Griffs went amateurish. BVCK, himself, set the example. After walking Rollie Hemsley and giving up a single by Clift, the big hurler picked up Pinch-hitter Ray Pepper's bounder and, with an easy double-play in sight, threw the ball | before either Ossie Bluége or Budd}"| Myer could reach second base. As a Tesult Hemsley scampered home, Clift | raced to third and Pepper, of course, achieved first. Here Buck passed Lyn Lary, the transplanted National, and thus filled the bases. Then Myer came to the Browns' aid, picking up Burns’ double- play grounder and throwing wildly past Bluege, while Clift scored and the bases remained loaded. It wasn't exactly serious, but Bucky Harris’ was thumbing the bull-penners into action anyway. Newsom, how- ever, only poured his choicest fire balls toward the Browns and the best Solters, Coleman and West could do was fly out in succession. The first two flies accounted for the sixth and seventh St. Louis runs. Myer’s Boot Costly. Travis Starts Rally. Cm\’ instrumental in giving Buck this lead which couldn't even be thrown away was Travis, who started one rally and fnished the other two that marked Washington's spas- modic offensive. Up to the fifth in- ning Russ Van Atta, the win-less southpaw, had given up only one hit, a single by Bluege. But with one away in the fifth, Travis rapped a double that heralded Van Atta’s doom. Miles, the fastest man on the club, then pumped a drive onto the concrete infleld, beat it out, and the rally was on. Walks to Sam Holbrook and Joe Kuhel finished Van Atta and Jack Knott and Snipe Hansen were sent in by Hornsby in that order. When the smoke had cleared the score was 4 to 3. In the seventh the Nationals got bodacious again. Bluege, Myer and Heinie Manush led off with hits and then Travis stalked to the plate and hit & pancack sign in right center io clean the sacks with a triple. Miles brought him home with an infield out and it was 8 to 3. Then, just to make sure, three more runs were added in the eighth on walks to Bluege, Jack Stone and Myer, a fly by Manush, & single by Travis and a healthy fly by Miles. Hayes Stingy With Hits. NIWSOM gave up only seven hits but he had nothing on young Hayes. The kid pitcher permitted the Browns the same amount of safeties and breezed home with a wicked curve and a fast bell that “carried.” Hayes' new mates wasted no time in giving the kid a lead.

EW YORK, July 13.—The Yankees wore themselves out today overcoming the effect of ore bad inning and after they finally had tied the score 1 the eighth they had nothing left to meet Chicago'e ninth-inning spurt and the White Sox won the series opener, 8 to 7. The defeat reduced the Yankees' lead to one game over the Detroit Tigers, who split a double-header with the Athletics. The Sox blasted Johnny Murphy from the hill in the fourth inning, batting clear around with five hits and three walks to score seven runs. Alded by Lou Gehrig's thirteenth home run of the season and Tony Lazzeri’s eleventh, the Yzoks kept picking away at this lead until they finally drove Sad Sam Jones to cover in the eighth and tied the score. AT MALONE proved ineffective as a | reli>f hurler in the ninth and gave up the winning run without a hit. He passed Tony Piet, who went to second on Mule Haas' sacrifice and to third on Zeke Bonura's fly, then uncorked a wild pitch that let the runner score. Rip Radcliff led the Chicago at- tack in the big inning, starting things off with a single and driving in the last two with a triple off Jimmy Deshong, who replaced Murphy and pitched fine relief ball until lifted for a pinch hitter in the eighth. Bo- nura also hit a triple and Haas and Luke Sewell contributed singles while Murphy forced in one run with a pass. Bill Dickey, Yankee catcher who recently returned to the line-up after an injury, was put out of action in the sixth when a foul from Radcliff’s bat injured two fingers on his throw- ing hand.

By the Associated Press. | | RAHA, July 13—Taking no chances, Germany’s Davis Cup tennis team called on Baron Gottfried von Cramm for dou- | bles duty today and earned the pomt; | that may prove decisive in the Euro- | vakia. Von Cramm. substituting for Hans Denker, was the dominant figure on the court as he and K. Lund swept to a straight set victory over Roderich Menzel and Josef Malacek, 6—3, 9—7, 6—4. The triumph gave Germany a 2-1 lead in the series and virtually assured the Teutons of & berth in the interzone finals against the United States, starting at Wimbledon next Saturday. GIRMANY should get no worse than an even break in the concluding singles matches tomorrow. Von Cramm rules a heavy favorite over Menzel and 19-year-cld Heiner Hen- kel, who carried Menzel to five sets yesterday, is the choice over Jon! Caska, second-string Czech singles | player. The Czechs had ocen strongly fa- vored to win the douoles until Hein- rich Kleinschroth, non-playing cap- tain of the German tfeam, decided to send Von Cramm, known best for his singles play, into the fray.

'Powell Okay, but Bucky Gives Him Rest as Rookie Sparkles EAR that Jake Powell, budding outfleld star of the Nationals, might possibly be forced to undergo a long layoff or even retire for the rest of the season, due to sciatic nerve trouble in his right leg, yesterday was disspelled by the Washington Club physician. Carefully examined yesterday morn- ing, after having been stricken Pri- day for the second time within three weeks, Powell was pronounced as able to play, although there was no guar- antee that strangulation of the leg nerve was gone for keeps. Powell is a game youngster. He re- ported to the team yesterday, donned his uniform and was rarin’ to play. Manager Bucky Harris, however, de- cided to rest him. The former Takoma Tiger will be available today, too, but so well did the new outfleld combination of Heinle Manush, Johnny Stone and Dee Miles function yesterday it is be- lieved that Harris will give Powell further rest. He may see action in & pinch-hitting role, however. ‘Whitehill vs. Coffman. EARL WHITEHILL, who chalked up his first victory in more than a month when he beat the Tigers last week, will try to make it two in a row today when the Nationals enter- tain the Browns in the third tilt of a| five-game series. The Griffs, who have beaten the‘ St. Louis Club eight times in nine | games this season, confidently look forward to regaining sixth place dur- ing the current set. While they are battling the last-place Browns, the present occupants of sixth place— Connie Mack’s Athletics—are locked in a series with the rampaging “Tigers. So hard up is Rogers Hornsby for hurlers that he is expected to send Dick Coffman back to the slab today. Coffman started the second game of A yesterday's double-header but was sent to the showers after the first inning, in which the Nationals made four runs. Strange Outshines Lary. CAPXTAL fans had their first oppor- tunity to compare Alan Strange and Lyn Lary in their new uniforms in yesterday's nightcap. The com- parison, yesterday at least, was flat- tering to Strange. who was obtained | by the Nationals in the recent swap.

Burke Still Balking, OB BURKE, recently ordered to report to Chattanooga in exchange for Whitey Hayes, hasn't gone yet . . . he is reported still in town and unde- cided whether to go to Chattanooga, undergo a tonsilectomy and then re- port, or have the tonsils yanked and and give up base ball for cartooning.

The “brown bomber"” aiready has signed. The principals will split upward of 50 per cent of the “gate.” Promoter Jacobs believes the Louis- Schmeling fight will draw the biggest crowd for a non-championship bout since Jack Dempsey knocked out Jack Sharkey before a million-dollar | house at the Yankee Stadium in 1927. Jacobs predicts the gross receipts will touch $750,000, due mainly to the sensational interest aroused by the rise of the “brown bomber” as a heavyweight title threat, Jacobs Sails Tuesday.
