HURLERS INFORM | T0 FACE ‘COUSINS Harrismen Look to First Division as White Scx, Tigers Battle. BY FRANCIS E. STAN, Staff Correspondent of The Star. HILADELPHIA, August 21— Financially and artistically Washington's base ball firm should be grateful for the 1936 American League schedule. More and more, as each day passes, it becomes obvious that when the schedule-makers sat down last Win- ter and drew up the slate they did the Nationals no harm whatsoever. Again today the Griffs found the door open to the first division and if they fail to capitalize they can blame nobody except themselves. Here for a five-game series that is to be grammed into the week end they find that, simultaneous with their proposed preying on the hapless Ath- letics, a pair of clubs directly ahead will be staging a dog fight. Over in Detroit the third-place Tigers and the fourth-place White Sox are fighting it out with neither in a position to lose much ground. So it is that Washington, maintain- ing anything like its pace to date against the A’s, ought to pick up more ground in the late rush for a first- division berth. The Griffs have won 10 of 13 games against the Macks and today, as they dived into another se- ries with their first “cousins,” only a game separated the Nats from the Chisox and only three games apart are the Harrismen and Tigers. Home Stand Promises Much. '[HE immediate benefits of the schedule do not stop here. The Nats are to be given quite a stretch in which to make their big bid. Wind- ing up in Philadelphia on Sunday they will return to Griffith Stadium next week to entertain, in_order, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Philadelphia and Boston before again hitting the road for almost the rest of the campaign. Like home cooking, nothing is quite 80 good as playing ball in the home park. For a while this year it looked as if the Griffs were to disprove this time-Honored base ball theory, but the belief that Washington was better on the road was shattered on the last ‘Western trip. In the final analysis the Nats seem to be like most any other team. They go best at home. When this series in Philadelphia is ended the Washingtons should be close enough on the heels of the White Sox, ‘Tigers, Indians to make every game of their forthcoming stand in Griffith Stadium count a-plenty. There will be 16 of them and if the Nationals are going to get anywhere at all in the race they very likely will wind up the last| 16-18ths of their play at home with 8 margin to protect when they swing ‘West for the final trip. After that only a matter of two games at home late in September stand between them and the close of the season. Well Fixed for Pitchers. BUCK NEWSOM, the talkative pitch- | ing disappointment, was to open the current series today, probably opposing Gordon (Dusty) Rhodes, who | has broken even in two starts against ‘Washington this season. If going back to his last start means anything, New- | som should win his fourteenth game today for he pitch>d a six-hit victory over the Red Sox last time out. Earl Whitehill, whose habit of beat- ing the A’s has helped to swell his total of wins to nine for the season, will work half of tcmorrow’s double- header. Joe Cascarella, the sweet- singing right-hander from Boston, will share the Saturday throwing with Earl and nowadays, with his one-run losing | complex seemingly whipped, Joseph | stacks up as a pitcher with at least an even chance to win. For the final two games, forming | another double-header on Sunday, the Griffs will send Pete Appleton and Jimmy De Shong to the firing line. Right now Pete appears to be the hot- test pitcher on the staff and De Shong has yet to drop a decision to the A’s, who, incidentally, let him go once ‘upon a time. D. C. TENNIS MOGULS DELAY BIG MEETING Await Approval of Constitution Before Holding Session of New Association. JPENDING complete approval of the proposed constitution for the new District of Columbia Tennis Associa- tion by the U. S. L. T. A. and Middle Atlantic Association, tonight’s meet- ing, originally scheduled to be held at ‘Wardman Park Hotel, has been post- poned indefinitely. Although an excellent document has been drawn up, leaders of District tennis desired sanction by the national and sectional bodies before they pre- sented it for adoptior to District of Columbia net followers. The delay in meeting for the adopt- tion of the constitution assures the new body of a thorough and wholly- sanctioned organization plan when it formally begins its existence. Stan McCaskey, temporary chair- man of the D. C. T. A, has received ‘word that the U. S. L. T. A. is for- warding suggestions and model con- stitutions for use by local authorities. ‘These advices will be given careful consideration by the Constitutional Committee, which will make any nec- essary changes in their instrument required by the laws of the higher bodies.

HILADELPHIA, "August 21— P The other evening, when they dragged radio microphones to < the fighters’ dressing rooms to ['pick up a few pearls of post-battle wisdom, Squire Jack Sharkey waxed | philosophic. “There isn’t much one can say when he is beaten,” declared Mr. Sharkey. sadly. “Youth will be served and that’s all there is to it.” If Squire Sharkey was speaking only of himself and Joe Louis he probably was wrong. Joe probably could have flattened Jack on the best | day of the ancient mariner’s life. And if he was speaking of youth being served in general he was wrong again. It ain’t so, necessarily. Somehow the accent on youth, at least this year, is not so pronounced. On the afternoon of the same night up in Boston, and unbe- known to the Squire, a super- annuated rookie by the name of Harry Kelley was winning his sixteenth pitching victory for the tail-end Athletics. Kelley is well past 30 now, and until he donned the toggery of the A's last Spring it had been nearly 12 years since he poured his squatty carcass in a major league uniform. Old Jess Carries On. ONLY the day before, down in Washington, a gentleman named Pete Appleton registered his tenth victory cf the season by beating the league-leading Yankees. For years Pete, who is 31 or 32, tried to crash the big show under the name of Jablonowski. The Red Sox, Yanks, Indians ‘and Reds sent him back in the prime of his youth and not until the Nationals picked him last Fall and carried him this season did he meet with any success. His record of 10 wins as against 6 defeats ranks him on a par with Jimmy De Shong as Washington’s most successful pitcher. Jess Haines of the Cardinals was born 43 years ago, but he still is going strong for the National League leaders. Jess still is able to totter to the box as a relief pitcher and, next who 10 years ago was at his peak. Be that as it may, there is no belittling Rhem’s feat in pro- nouncing himeelf the hest pitcher in the 28-team Cardinal chain, 4 held tonight, will be made in the presss. NOLANS LOOK FOR FOE.

Returning to the ranks of ball players for another moment, consider the case of Goose Gos- lin. They've been saying for years that Goose was through. Even after he broke up the world series last October Detroit critics de- clared he wouldn’t hold down a regu- lar job with the Tigers in 1936. Re- cent official averages show Goslin to be doing a fair sort of job in sticking in the big show. He's “only” hitting -329 for 118 games and there is an imposing total of 111 in his runs- batted-in column. Then, too, there is Al Sim- mons. When he got off to a poor start with the Bengals they yelped that Simmons had reached the end of his rope. Today he is batting .331 and if that is the end of a man’s rope then Red Kress can beat Jesse Owens in a foot race. Should Have Stood in Bed. A BRIEF flashback to the fields of golf and tennis reveals that oldsters still are holding up in fair style. For instance, there were many younger and more highly rated golf- ers than Tony Manero at Baltusrol when the national open title was placed on the block. And not even the august souls who form the U. S. L. T. A. could quite get away with bulld- ing the Davis Cup team around Wilmer Allison without some sort of an excuse. Over in St. Louis the rightly an- cient Jim Bottomley is s0 old and de- crepit that he is hitting close to .300 and, as a reward for his fine play the Browns are rumored to be thinking seriously to making him manager next year. The only pitcher of Tom Yawkey's expensive Red Sox entry who is producing in expected style is Bob Grove, who jumped from the|" rookie class some time ago. With a little longer research you could find a dozen others. In the first place, it seems Mr. Sharkey should have stood in bed. In the second place, if he insists on fighting and making speeches, he should add to his “youth will be served” the qualification “when youth’s turn coms Foening Shar Spois FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 1936. < o s Tt | WEE ()P THERE ARE NIO MORE TRADE-WINDS BLOW- ING AROUND THIS LOCATION ... ., THE SENATORS FIRST BASEMAN ...e PLAYING THE BEST BALL OF HIS MAJOR LEAGUE CAREER...

ER Dizzy Dean’s ‘work-horse” act saves the pennant for the St. Louis Gas House Gang, it ap- pears to be pointing the great one toward the best season of his big league career. Old Diz is turning in those victories at the rate of two & week and at his current pace may come close to hit- ting the 35-mark in games won for the campaign. His strikeout and bases-on-balls records for the season so far com- pare favorably with his best year, 1934, when he won 30, lost 7, fanned 95 batters and walked only 75. His record for the current cam- paign is 21 won, against 8 lost. He has a winning streak of 6 straight and he has his eye on fhe Giants’ coming road trip, when he’ll be bear- ing down to end the threat of Bill Terry and company on the National League lead. Cards Win in Ninth. 1ZZY turned in a seven-hit job against the Cincinnati Reds yes- | terday. The Cardinals came through | with a three-run splurge in the ninth | for a 4-2 victory, to boost their league lead to a game and a half over the Giants, who were idle, along with the Dodgers. The Cubs fell farther behind as| the Pirates punched a run over in the eleventh for an 8-7 win. The Chicago champs blew a seven-run lead they piled up in the first two | frames and were unable to score after | that, as Ralph Birkofer pitched two- hit ball in a nine-inning relief as- signment. The crippled Boston Bees’ pitching | | staff forced Bill McKechnie to gamble | on a pair of youngsters, Bill Weir and | Bobby Reis, against the Phillies, and between them they held the falling Phils to six hits for a 3-1 Boston win. Tigers Rally for Victory. THE American League's only game saw the Tigers come from way behind a four-run handicap to trounce the Browns, 8-4, with a 17-hit at- tack. Tommy Bridges chalked up holding the Brownies to eight hits. The victory boosted the Tigers to place Cleveland Indians, but made | no inroads on the 12-game edge the Yanks hold at the head of the pack. BEARDED TEANS NGB PARKTLT Rules of 70’s Will Prevail in Anniversary Clash at Chicago. Bv the Associated Press. HICAGO, August 21.—Base ball of the mustache and sideburns era will be revived for a few innings tomorrow at Wrigley Field as Chicago stages its show in the series of National League 60th anniversary games. Two teams selected by Chicago park district athletic directors will don the high-collared blouses, long neckties and padded knee pants and play three or four innings under the original rules, before the Cubs and Cincinnati Reds take the field for their scheduled game. ‘The pitchers will bowl the ball un- derhand from 45 feet away from the plate instead of 60, and the catchers, without modern trappings, will han- dle the ball on the first bounce. ‘The umpire, according to the 1876 code “a gentleman of high repute in the community,” will call 'em from a chair planted between the plate and first base. He will wear a high hat and carry a cane. ‘The uniforms of the two teams will be patterned after those of the old Cincinnati Red Stockings and the Chi- cago White Stockings, forerunners of the Cubs.

EW YORK, August 21.—The New York State Athletic Com- mission was due to decide today whether the injury to | Jimmy Braddock’s hand was serious | enough to warrant a postponement | of the champion's heavyweight title | defense against Max Schmeling. But since the reports all unofficially were in, indications were that the decision would only leave the situa- tion as far up in the air as ever.

Said to Have Arthritis. 'HE official word was that Jimmy is suffering from sub-acute ar- thritis in both elbows and should not tackle an outdoor fight this year. Thyt indigated a postponement so far, but the German ex-champion and Mike Jacobs and Madison Square Garden, co-promoters of the bout, couldn’t reach any sort of an agree- ment yesterday. Schmeling favored an outdoor bout at Miami this Win- ter. Jacobs said okay, too, but the Garden held out for a New York bout. Max also turned down all suggestions that he accept a substitute fight in September, holding out for Braddock or ne . ‘Thus it looks as if Schmeling’s pro- posed hunting trip to Canada would be the only thing he would get for this trip to America.

ST LOUIS, August 21 —California, already assured of a berth in the final round of women’s sin- gles, today staked hopes of a male finalist on the flailing right arm of Louis Wetherell, Los Angeles, as play in the National Public Parks tournament reached the crucial stage.

THE power of the sun-kissed trio Is illustrated by the fact they have | not lost a set in foud days of play. Paired to oppose the winner of the all-California match when women's singles play is resumed Saturday are Edna Smith, Cleveland’s “Mighty Mite,” and strong-armed Helen Ger- maine, former National Parks cham- pion from New York. Wetherell, only one of eight seeded male stars to gain the semi-finals, has one of two “dark horses” to con- sider should he eliminate Smith.
