NAT HURLER SLUGS MANYTIMELYHITS Triple by Eddie in Eighth Beats Cards—Averages .800 This Spring. BY FRANCIS E. STAN, 8taff Correspondent of The Star. RLANDO, Fla, April 6.—It may develop, after all these years, that Pitcher Eddie Linke will assume a new im- portance to the Nationals . . . and not necessarily because of any marked improvement in his hurling. Not often since the days that Bucky Harris used to send Dutch Reuther and Walter Johnson parading to the | ¢, plate has the Washington ball club used a pitcher as a pinch-hitter. That, however, is the thought currently in mind down here as the Griffs pre- vare to break camp. Ever since Linke first came up with the Nats, he's been a good hitting |pitcher. But they never used him as & pinch-hitter. Of course, there was Dave Harris, at one time, and Clif Bolton. The idea of using Linke never struck home, even as recent as last year, when Linke was credited with one of the two longest home runs ever hit in Comiskey Park in Chicago. There he actually drove, on a line, over the center-field bleachers. Only Ruth had preceded him at this feat. Now, in the wake of a series of %Grapefruit League” batting exhibi- tions by young Mr. Linke, the idea of double-dutying him is beginning to yrow. Pulls “Reynolds” on Cards. T WAS Linke who personally ac- counted for the snapping of Wash- Ington's four-game losing streak here yesterday. Tied at 3-3 with the Car- dinalg, our side went into the ninth \nning and Walter Millies singled The logical play was a sacrifice, especially with the pitcher up. Linke got a bunt sign. He let a ball go. Bucky Harris, suddenly struck by a happy thought, canceled the bunt #ign and ordered Ed to swing at the next good pitch. He did, met it fairly, &nd the ball screamed to left-center, burying in the bushes and breaking up the game. The score was 4-3, Linke Having to stop at third, inas- much as his drive was a ground- rule triple. The play was strikingly similar to that which Harris used to win the ppening game of the 1936 season. Carl Reynolds was the man he then ordered to hit, after first giving a #acrifice sign with a man on base and nobody out. Reynolds doubled to win s 1-0 victory for Buck Newsom. Can’t Do Much More. THA'I‘ triple yesterday hasn't been the sum of Linke's accomplish- | ments with the stick. The boy who led the Washingtons in batting last year walked up to the plate in the ninth inning of a game with Chatta- nooga last Thursday. The score was 4-3 in favor of 'Nooga, but he prompt- 1y tied it up with a terrific home run out of the park and forced the Look- outs to go into extra innings to win. Prior to that he helped the Griffs stage & four-run rally late in a game egainst Baltimore and win, 6-4. his first trip to the plate the Griffs were trailing, 4-2. He singled to start @ rally that netted a run and made it | ¢-3. On his second time at bat Ed | singled again, driving across the tying | yp two full nights before the 1924 | he has been any time since his heyday | run and placing the winning one in | woriq series trying to patch up Roger | With John McGraw's Giants! He later scored peckinpaugh's spavined legs? Recall | scoring position. himself. | In short, Linke has appeared in four games this Spring and walked to bat | six times. Once he hit a home run, | once a triple, twice he singled, once | he walked and only one time was he | “manufactured” a pair of pins for | retired. He scored twice himself and | drove across three runs. This is hard to beat. So Cards Lose 4-3. DDIE takes his talent at bat in stride, looking upon it as natural. *I always could hit,” he says. “Wish ¥ had the same luck pitching.” With Al Simmons now playing left | @eld, it is likely that Fred Sington, Jesse Hill and Johnny Mihalic will do most of the Washington pinch- hitting unless, of course, Skipper | Harris decides to give Linke a real | fiing. Nobody who has watched Sing- | ton and Hill at bat this year is will- ing to bet they are better hitters than Linke. As for Mihalic, he has been a batting leader so far, but there is no doubt but that he's been | hitting over his head. Linke's pitching has been not as eonsistent as his hitting. Buck New- som, often in hot water, but always getting out, turned over a 3-to-1 Jead to Linke in the seventh inning yesterday, but Ed couldn't hold it. In the eighth the Cards jumped him for three hits. These, plus an error | by Hill, produced two runs and tied it up at 3-3. It looked dark in the Card ninth when Jimmy Brown doubled with one down, but Linke pulled out of it snd then, with Harris' permission, *bunted” his triple to break up the game. b The Brakes A b CARDINALS.

Unbeknown to President Griffith or Manager Bucky Harris this Spring he conducted a study of tonics, both liquid and tablet | form. He eliminated remedy after remedy. Finally he arrived at a for- mula designed for Weaver. In 1932 Weaver weighed approxi- mately 165 pounds. He fell ill in 1933 and for the next three years was use- less to the Nationals. He even bounced to the minors but was reprieved be- cause of an acute shortage of pitching on the Washington club. He contrived to last the 1936 season but he weighed | only 138 pounds and was a decided risk. All last Winter Monte conducted a campaign to build up weight. stepped on the scales and weighed only 147. Martin approached with his formula. Monte had nothing to lose. For fcur years he had spent his own money in great chunks to rid himself of his anemia. Today Weaver weighs 161, stripped. | Fourteen pounds in four weeks.

And religiously he takes Martin's formula. Bodies by Martin. | HOGAN'S progress in the other di- rection has been too well followed to bear repetition. Ever since Shanty came to camp the writing boys have been issuing hourly bulletins on Hogan's weight. Goading, encouraging, prodding, back-slapping, Martin has | driven the giant. The 286-pound Hogan of last August has lost approxi= mately 50 pounds, or more than any player known to major league ball. Whether he’ll stay down is another | matter, but Martin can take credit | for having done more with Shanty than any one else was able to do.

REDSKINS SIGN A PAIR Get Peterson, Hall, Who Played for West Virginia Wesleyan. Nelson Peterson, halfback, and Boggs Hall, guard—both members of last year's West Virginia Wesleyan eleven that upset Catholic University, 26-19—today signed contracts to play with the Washington Redskins for the 1937 season. The recruits were recommended by another former Wesleyan star, CLUf Battles, who for the last five years has been a Redskin backfleld star. Peterson, who resembles Battles in bulld—190 pounds and 6 foot 2— proved himself an exceptionally shifty ball carrier in his team’s surprise win over C. U. Hall, of short-compact stature, was effective as a running guard on offense. Coach Ray Flaherty, now on the Coast signing other ex-college stars and several Redskin veterans, will call his players together on August 25 for preseason workouts. As yet the Red- skin training cdmp hasn't been se- lected, but eventually it'll be located near the Capital if the management's plans go through. Yale to Fix Bowl Turf to Suit Backfield Phenom Sees Another Cagle in Wilson, Who Needs Peculiar Footing in Order to Travel. BY EDDIE BRIETZ, Associated Press Sports Editor.

Special Dispatch to The Star O reported RLANDO, Fla., April 6—The sale of Al Simmons by the Tigers the other day seemingly emphasized one of the most marked examples of depreciation in base ball history. Scarcely more than a year ago, the Tigers purchased him from Chicago for $75.000, or so it was Yet he was sold for between $10,000 and $15,000 this week If he depreciated in value during 1936 it is difficult to find in what manner, by looking at the averages. drove across 112 runs, when he was adjudged a $75,000 ball player. which was a far better record Simmons batted .327 last year and than his of 1935, Rather than depreciation, the comparatively paltry sum which Clark Griffith paid might well be heralding the end of base ball's inflation prices, | helped to start back in the Fall of 1934. which Griffith himself It was then, you know, that Griff accepted Tom Yawkey's check for $250,000, and Lyn Lary, in exchange for Joe Cronin.

In return Yawkey poured a golden stream into Philadelphia, whose ball club was hard pressed by the banks. Ruppert Wanted to Buy Myer. THEHE was little let-up in 1835.
