‘DREAM GAME VET MARVEL OF ARRAY Tiger Grabs Batting Lead as Yanks Are Hailed as Conquerors of N. L. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. HE Capital began its descent to normalcy today with the 1937 All-Star game a thing of the past and the gathering of the base ball clan thinning out. There was nothing left on the schedule except the ritual of performing the autopsies in the wake of the American League’s smashing 8-to-3 victory over the National. The Yankees—Gomez and Gehrig, Rolfe and Dickey, and Joe Di Maggio— ‘were on the lips of most of the bouquet tossers, but there was yet another figure with whom to deal. Stealing away from the battleground as mod- estly and quietly as he had joined the invading horde of the diamond greats was Charley Gehringer. The Dizzy Dean fellow swaggered off with a one-word description of Lou Gehrig, and it was “lucky.” As un- official spokesman for the beaten forces of the National League he belittled Di Maggio and Red Rolfe. But not even the arrogaht Dean could make himself utter a word against the great second baseman of the Detroit Tigers. Now a five-year veteran of “dream game” campaigning, Gehringer stands on a pedestal today as the “All-Star baby.” What the Yankees neglected to perform yesterday before 31,391 fans at Griffith Stadium the quist Tiger did. He drove in the only run not credited to one of the Yankee brigade. He scored another and drove out three singles to lead the 13-hit attack of the Americans against Dean, Carl Hubbell, Van Mungo, Lee Grissom and Bucky Walters. “Greatest of All"—Harris. A YEAR ago he collected two hits in three trips to the plate for a de- feated American League team. In 1935 he again went “three-for-two,” as the boys say, and in 1934 he had an identi- cal batting record. Only in the inaugu- ral, back in 1933 at Chicago, was Gehringer held hitless. ‘With his big day at Griffith Stadium in the record books, Gehringer now stands far at the top of both American and National League stars with a .563 average. His flelding is taken for granted. If not, to keep the record straight, he never has made an All- Btar error. For a ‘“one-legged” ball player—and Gehringer honestly shought that Buddy Myer would ke able to do & better job yesterday—he was something more helpful than an anchor on Joe McCarthy's forces. Bucky Harris of the Nationals was one who saw fit to remember Charley as the triumphant Americans raced off the field. “I've been managing big league ball clubs for 13 years now,” declared Harris, “and I have yet to see the equal of Gehringer as an all- around ball player.” Most Decisive Defeat in Series. HE National Leaguers obviously 4 were outclassed by the Americans, who today hold four victories as egainst a single All-Star defeat. The long-range guns of the McCarthymen barked no more often than the Na- tional League's but the Americans shelled the fences for extra bases and scored hits when hits meant runs. The famed National League pitching trio of Dean, Hubbell and Mungo did not compare yesterday with the hurl- ing of Lefty Gomez, Tommy Bridges and Mel Harder. It was the great Hubbell, a thin, drawn and probably overworked Hubbell, who went down 'in the books as the 1937 “goat” Even after Gehrig had driven over the right-field fence against Dean in the third inning, glving Gomez a 2-to-0 lead, the National Leaguers still were in the game. y They came back against Bridges in the fourth to cut the score to 2-1 but when Hubbell was dispatched to the box the game became a rout. King Carl failed to last an inning and when he was removed in the fourth round the Americans were out in tront, 5 to 1. Never thereafter did the senior leaguers seriously threaten to win. It was the most decisive and humiliating defeat of the five-year series. Griff Praises McCarthy. LARK GRIFFITH, whose Joy was unconfined, today pronounced the American League team as “the great- est ever to be gathered.” “We simply had too much power,” added Griffith, “and everything worked as planned. I thought that Joe McCarthy did a fine job of handling the club. He started his best all-around team and kept it in the game. “By best all-around team,” he ex- plained, “I mean a combination that was capable both defensively and offensively. Here or there McCarthy might have inserted a player who (Continued on Page C-3.) _ WASHINGTON, D. C., THURSDAY, - Gehringer Is All-Stars’ Brightest : MARSE JOE’S YANKEE-STEIN. | | | | AW SHUCKS!

JOSEPH (MUSCLES) MEDWICK simply was outmanned and over- powered by the New York Yankees and that, succinctly, seems to tell the story of the 1937 All-Star game. It was an affair whose 8-t0-3 figure served to bloat the American Leaguers’ ego to new high pro- portions. The cruel verdict of the partisan mob was that National Leaguers do not belong on the same ball field with a collection of Mr. Will Harridge's strong-arm boys. The only item that puzzied the mob was how Medwick was smuggled into the National League. He looked out of place in a uniform other than that worn by Mr. Lou Gehrig and the slightly lesser siege guns of the Yankees. The minority handful of apostles from Mr. Ford Frick's league seemed to accept the Nationals’ fate as gracefully as possible and content themselves with an inevitable if . . . “if Hubbell had been right we would have been in the game.” This viewpoint undoubtedly is well taken and probably will become the theme of all National Leaguers until all the autopsies have been committed and the game is laid to rest for another year. Meanwhile, if nothing else, the whole affair tended to focus the spotlight on the Yankees again and maybe today people ought to stop feeling sorry for the National League and begin to look sympathetically toward the seven other clubs that have to live with the Yanks. It was a Yankee who belted the home run off Dizzy Dean to build up a lead that never was lost . . . a homer With another Yankee on base. It was -— ———— a Yankee who was the best pitcher on the field all day and, by the loose | laws of a single performance, conse- quently can be hailed as the . best pitcher in base ball. It was a Yan- kee who made the best defensive play of the game. And Yankees they were who DROVE ACROSS SEVEN OF THE AMERICAN LEAGUE'S EIGHT RUNS. Rabid old Clark Griffith, who is suspected of looking upon the National League as a sort of base ball dog pound, admitted that it was extremely- nice to have the Yankees on your side. “We had too much power,” quoth Mr. G., happily. He blisstully. em- braced approximately $1,000,000 worth of Mr. Jacob Ruppert’s Yankee Club when he said “we.” He even accepted a slug of beer in his elation and when somebody remarked that it was t00 bad the game wasn't closer the old gentleman snorted indig- nantly. “By sin,” he said, “it wag too close. We want to get all the runs we can against those fellows.” point, and if the sheer supremacy of the Yanks was not quite as they would like, it was taken in a philosophical vein, Iy It was perfectly apparent that be- tween the hours of 1:30 and 4 o'clock of the afternoon Lefty Gomez was far and away the best pitcher. Mr. Dean was nicked for four hits and & base on balls in this three-inning stretch, and was humiliated to the extent of watching Gehrig drive one of his fast balls in a high arc over the right-field fence. Mr. Hubbell, of course, was below par. Just about the time people be- gan to recall that he was the gentle- man who struck out Ruth, Gehrig, Foxx, Simmons and Cronin in suc- cession in the 1934 game at New York, it developed that King Carl had been dethroned posthaste. Gomez Was Top Pitcher. LATER, when the edge of his en- thusiasm had worn down, Mr. G. 8ot around to admitting that it was something of a large Yankee victory.

The only performer who can touch him in ability in their respective spe- cialties is Lefty Gomez, the Yankees eccentric southpaw. Lefty pitched bi self three innings of near perfect ball yesterday, with only one man reaching base, to take credit for his second all-star win, thereby earning the top spot among pitching aces. Only six of all the clouters who have seen three years or more of all- star action have turned in better than 400 batting averages, and none of these went to work in all five games as did Gehringer. In his stretch, he belted opposition pitching indiscrimi- nately for two doubles and seven singles in 17 times at bat. The homer-hitting leadership of all-star history goes to Gehrig, with two ‘circuit clouts. The Yankee iron man, who turned in nine full innings of first-basing yesterday, has driven in five runs in the interleague tea parties, a feat duplicated only by Ducky Med- wick.

The winners want games, Oall Lincoln 0853, Left-Handers Can Cross, Bucky Harris Claims. BY JOHN B. KELLER. HEY looked over the best the National League could offer in a pitching way at Griffith Stadium yesterday did the American Leaguers and, if you'll listen to Bucky Harris, it was Carl Hubbell instead of Dizzy Dean who lost the “dream game” for the senior loop. Now don't start squawking because Dean, the ace righthander of the | National League as well as of the Cardinals, was the technical loser of the contest when he yielded two runs in the first three frames of the game that went against his side, 8 to 3. Harris, after the tussel, argued that the National Leaguers still were in the ball game until the American Leaguers got three runs off the vaunted Hubbell in two-thirds of the fourth frame. That took the heart out of the other side, clalmed the astute manager of the Washington ball club, and they weren't in the running thereafter. But why, Bucky was asked? “Figure back, fired back Bucky. “Hubbell is in a tough spot when he has to pitch to left-handed hitters.” Harris Has His Theory. ACCORDING to Bucky, it's this way. Hubbell can’t get away with that great screwball he uses most of the time when he's against good left- handed batting. “And you'll have to | admit that we had good left-handed batting out there,” Harris remarked. “You see, that screwball doesn't ap- peal particularly to a left-handed bat- ter when it comes from a left-handed pitcher and the boys don't bother much about it. Nor does the ordinary curve that Hubbell has worry ‘em much, “So they stuck in there and waited for his fast one. And when Carl served that—zowie. “That was the ball game.” Figuring back, you get this. At the ally redoubtable Carl of the Giants— redoubtable in the National League campaigning—easily got rid of Joe Cronin, the right-handed swinging slugger of the Red Sox. Then came the southpaw shooting Bill Dickey, slam- ming smacker of the Yankees. Hub- bell used all he had, including his famed screwball, against Bill, but Bill drew a pass. Left-Handers Really Socked, THAT was the beginning of the end for Hubbell. Sammy West, who once was one of the finest outfielders the Washington club ever had before he went to the Browns, slashed a sin- gle through First Baseman Johnny Mize of the Cardinals. Tommy Bridges, the Tiger hurler, struck out, but Tommy is a right-hander as well | as a notoriously poor hitter, as a | pitcher should be. Came Red Rolfe of the Yankees, a .289 hitter, but a left-hander, to triple, and Charley Gehringer of the Tigers, southpaw swinger, to single. runs were over and Hubbell was out. | So he can't take care of left-hand- ers, hey? How about that stunt of Carl’s in the 1934 All-Star game in |New York when Hubbell struck out five great hitters in two innings, Har- ris? Bucky was right there with the answer. “Yeah, I know that Ruth and Gehrig bat left-handed. But they always were great strike-out artists. Generally busting the hide off the ball, or swinging for that third one. Alway swinging,” Bucky came back. member. though, the others Carl struck batting from the right sid Simmons, Cronin and Foxx, Carl Great, Anyway, Says Buck. Yeah, affairs Hubbell, with his screwball, will have his trouble with the left-handed hitters. He'll take those right-hand- ers. He got Cronin again, didn't he? And you can't by any means figure Joe any slouch at that plate. “But he didn't get those left-hand- | b, ers. And anybody who couldn’t get those left-handers in that big game of the year couldn't stop the American Leaguers. “Carl is a great pitcher. Don't mis- take me. But the cards were stacked against him.
