B-11 r anfs Split With A’s, Clinch Sixth : Greenberg Gives Tigers Infield Edge BARUS CALL HALT ' Battery Mainstays of Chicago and Detroit for World Series BR["NS ARE RATED L3 FIGHTH IN A ROW COREDBY INKE i Gains a 6-Inning Shutout. Newsom’s Streak Ended. 67 Customers Pay. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. Staff Correspondent of The Star. HILADELPHIA, September 28.— o While 67 cash customers al- ternately dozed and heckled their side, the clinched sixth-place money in the| American League tcday by capturing | the second game of a double-header » with the Athletics after kicking away | i the opener. The A's grabbed the first tilt, 5 to 4, in 11 innings, while the Grifls swamped the Philadelphias im a six- | g inning nightcap, 8 to 0. The geme officlally was called o account of darkness and unofficially | ¥ because of the combination of lack of fans and of a contest. With their share of the sixth-place purse and & nickel, the Griffs can buy themselves @ cup of coffee. The Browns' double defeat by the Cleveland Indians mathematically clinched the niche for the Nationals who will wind up their season here tomorrow. . ‘Therg was little to write home about except the pitching of Eddie Linke, the young fatty-fatty of the Griffith A. C. It was Linke who sewed up sixth place by hurling a four-hit & game in the nightcap and. by the game token, winning his eighth con- secutive game. It is by far the long- est winning streak of any Washington pitcher this year. Newsom's Streak Broken. OF THE four hits made by the Ath- s letics, only one reached the out- | field. Three were blows which the Washington infielders were able to knock down, but not in time for a put-out. But while Linke fattened his win- ning streak, two others were broken. Buck Newsom, seeking his fifth vic- tory in a row, blew up in the opener | and was removed. He wasn't charged | 4 with the defeat but it marked the first time in his last 10 starts that bashful Buck was taken from the box. The | nightcap triumph also snapped the Nationals' four-game losing streak. For four innings in the opener, Newsom and Young Woodward Up- church of the A's turned back the stickers with regularity, but in the | fifth Rookie Red Marion belied his .250 average in the Southern Associa- tion by slamming a home run into the & left field stands for a 1-0 lead. The margin seemed enough for Newsom until the seventh, Lamar (with an e) Newsome, dupli: cated Marion's clout to tie the score. His little cousin’s sock was the be- ginning of the end for Buck, who es- caped damage in the eighth only by dint of two great throwing exhibitions | by Marion and Cecil Traws, who cut off two runs at the plate. y Russell Ends Rally. IN THE ninth his mates did right by 8 4-to-1 lead. Newsom, himself, walked to open it and Ossie Bluege doubled home Joe Kuhel, who had torced Buck. Myer then walked and scored with Bluege on Travis® double to center. But Buck couldn't hold the lead He was hit with about the same con- sistency in the A’s ninth that Max Baer was tagged a few days ago. A pass to Johnson and successive singles by Finney, Newsome, Patton and &+ Pinch-Hitter Richards chased three runs across and Mr. Newsom to the showers. Jack Russell finally retired the side, only to be charged with an undeserved defeat two innings later when Travis | pulled his first bad play since being shifted to the outfield. Having re- cently been laid up following a crash | into the concrete and iron boxes in | » wWashington, the youngster seemed a | bit timid about going back for Pat- ton’s fly near the left field barrier and finally had to resort to a leaping, one- handed try which was quite inade- quate, The official scorer dug his nose from a comic section and charitably called it a two-base hit. Russell fanned Pitcher Lieber, but Jack Peerson, a rookie shortstop from the Northern Florida League, cracked ® hit over third base, scoring Patton end breaking up the ball game. Mack Recruit Pounded. TKE nightcap was an entirely dif- ferent proposition. Prom the out- set it was one-sided with the Washing- tons pounding the ears off Alvin Veach, another recruit dug up by Con- nie Mack in the Southern backwoods. In the first inning the Griffs came up with three runs on a single hit, Kuhel walking and Miles singling him to third. Myer drew a pass to fill the bases and Veach threw a pitch past Catcher Patton, al- lowing Kuhel to score. Johnny Stone popped up, but when Bernie Snyder kicked Buddy Lewis’ grounder, Miles counted. Myer came in next on Jake Powell's infield grounder. The Griffs failed to score in only one inning—the second—and although s~ it was light enough to play another complete game, Umpire Bill McGowan mercifully saved Veach from a worse beating by calling the game on ac- count of “darkness” after the Ath-| letics' rap in the sixth frame. Washington made it 4-0 in the third when Buddy Lewis singled, was forced by Powell and Red Kress tripled. In the fourth ¢rame the score was boosted to 5-0 on singles by Linke, Joe Kuhel and Myer, whose two hits n five times at bat incidentally did not hurt his batting average. Kress accounted for the sixth score when he blasted a home run into the Jeftfield stands in the fifth. The last two runs were scored on Miles’ single, ‘a double by Stone and & one-baser by Powell.

By the Assoclated Press. T. LOUIS, September 28.—Too late to make any difference, except break the Chicago Cubs’ winning streak at 21 straight games, the St. Louls Cardinals de- feated the new National League champions, 7 to 5, in eleven innings today. Jack Rothrock singled to open the eleventh and Joe Medwick followed with his second home run of the game for the Red Birds' winning margin. Rothrock was also on base when Joe hit his first four-bagger in the sixth. The two players each got four hits to lead the 12-hit attack against Larry French and Steve Kowalik. Recruit Jim Winford started for the Cards, but Jesse Haines and Bill Walker also saw service before the game was over. Clout Run Across. ROTH‘ROCK singled in the fourth and Medwick promptly tripled him across, then scored on Jim Col- lins’ long outfield fly. Virgil Davis and Leo Durocher singled, Davis scor- ing when Catcher Hank O'Dea threw wild on an attempted double steal. Chuck Klein’s home run with Augie Galan, who had tripled, on base gave the Cubs two runs in the fifth. Three behind, they tied the score in the ninth, driving Winford from the mound. Klein and O'Dea singled, Joe Demaree tripled and Phil Cavarretta singled. Stan Hack hit into a double play, Lyle Judy to Jim Collins, to end the rally. .0 A, 8t Louis.

Heurich Brewers and the Senate Giants clash at 3 o'clock this afternoon on the Wheaton diamond. Co By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. HILADELPHIA, September 28. P —Manager Bucky Harris will take a final peek into 1936 to- morrow when he sends young Henry Coppola to the slab in the closing game of the season against the Athletics. A sore arm victim since his five-hit shutout against the Red Sox in June, Coppola recently declared the ailment had vanished and to prove it he won a 5-to-4 victory over the Athletics in Washington a week ago. ‘Tomorrow he will be given his sec- ond test since rejoining the Nationals’ slab staff. 'ECIL TRAVIS is no Heinie Manush as far as outfielding is concerned as yet, but one thing the youngster has that Heinie lacked is a deadly arm. Rival clubs have discovered this already and are taking few chances on the bases. Rookie Woody Upchurch of the A's was one of the two today who tried to take liberties with Travis' whip when, with the bases loaded and one down, Jimmy Foxx lined deep to Cecil. Upchurch, on third base, tried to score after the catch and was cut down at the plate, Travis to Bolton. Another Athletic rookie, George Pat- ton, took a similar chance the next inning, and also was flagged. Even if they drop tomorrow’s final here and the Bro) win their double- header with the Andians, the Nationals still will finish 1}: sixth place by half pola Will Test Arm Today As Nats Play Season’s Closer a game. By splitting today’s twin bill, the Griffs increase their margin over the Browns to two full games. Buck Newsom flew into quite & rage S when the A’s tied up the score in the ninth inning of the opener by seoring three runs. When Bucky Harris waved him to the bench and inserted Jack Russell, the loquatious right-hander cut loose a few disparaging remarks at himself and, before leaving for the showers, picked up the nearest bat and took a gosh awful whack at the concrete dugout steps. It was Roberto Estallella’s shiny black bat. “Wassamatter’ wassamatter, boy?” yelped Roberto. “Take it easy, senor.” With a pat on the back from Harris, roly poly Ed Linke was given his hon- el orable discharge for the season after | Kr today’s nightcap. The youngster had won eight in & row and already is looking forward to increasing his string next season. “I'm going to get in good shape earlier next year, believe me,” an- nounced Fasto. “This winning busi- ness is fun.” '‘HE Griffs’ may set a new all-time low for a road jaunt on this trip. In New York on Thursday they drew less than 1,000 paid customers, who ‘were lost in the huge Yankee Stadium. They took up approximately 1-80 of the room.

EVENDEFENSIVELY Hank’s Home Run Shillalah Is Stick Margin—Dizzy Gives Advice. This is the first of three stories comparing the world series rivals, Detroit and Chicago. BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, September 28.—Big Hank Greenberg with his home-run bat gives the De- troit infield an edge in attack over the sensational Chicago Cubs, but from the standpoint of defensive excellence it's a case of close your eyes and take your pick. Taking man for man in the two ine fields, which have dazzled their re- spective leagues, you can't give any player a wide edge of superiority until you get to big Hank. Although a flop at the plate last Fall when the St. Louis pitchers side armed him into helplessness, Hank rates as the one- man question mark over the Cub world series hopes. Greenberg and 19-year-old Phil Cavarretta, guardians of first base for the series foes, represent striking con= trasts. The Detroit star is steady, ex perienced and brilliant; Cavarretta, just out of high school, is inexper- lenced and his judgment, at times, is shaky. His throwing arm isn't so good, but he can get “tough” when the going is the roughest. Phil un- doubtedly will be a great star some day, but right now he's far from being & Greenberg, who is batting .334 with 36 home runs to Cavarretta's .273. Second Basemen Strong. 'OMPARISONS of the other infield regulars fail to disclose any such convincing superiority as Greenberg holds. Charley Gehringer and Billy Herman are the finest second base- men of their circuits, defensively and offensively, but in fielding you have to give Bill Jurges the nod over Billy Rogell and Stan Hack an edge over Marvin Owen at shortstop and third, respectively. Jurges can't hit with Rogell, but he can cover more terri- tory; Hack is superior to Owen at bat and in competitive spirit, a margin that is reduced some by his inherent weakness in fielding bunts. Hack rap- idly is correcting that fault, but it's a cinch the Tigers, artists all in the | art of sacrificing, will aim a lot of | bunts at the former bank clerk who made good. Mickey Cochrane, one of base ball's greatest figures, is faster on his feet than the great Cub back- stop, Leo “Gabby” Hartnett, whose lack of speed contributes a lot of double plays to the enemy, but there isn't much to choose between them. Base stealers had better beware their mighty throwing arms. Both are the real spark plugs of their clubs. Gabby has been having his best hitting year this season, & better one than Mickey. ‘The rival pitchers stack about even on fielding. Dizzy Gives Advice. Tl-m Cubs have one distinct margin in infeld reserves with their team captain, Woody English, ready | to step in at any infield position with a brilliant performance and | with Outfielder Fred Linstrom cap=- | able of moving in to play either lhlrd, shortstop or second in an | emergency.
