Chase, Linke Go Tomorrow. DAY Bucky was to pitch Monty Weaver, and from the scholarly ex-professor he can expect a good game. But tomorrow Harris will have to take a couple of long chances. He is going to start Ed Linke and Ken Chase in the doubleheader. The use of this pair is not exactly as Harris would have it. Linke has | shown him that he is anything but a consistent performer, and were it not | for the fact that Bucky is hard pressed for hurlers now, Linke would not be allowed to start. Tomorrow's | assignment is by no means a test of Linke's ability as a starting pitcher. Harris had planned to start Chase regularly, but he had hoped that he would not have to work him against the Browns, of all clubs. For a left- handed pitcher with anything less than exceptional ability, beating the Browns is a real feat. Bottomley's gang has only one left-handed hitter | in the line-up, Harry Davis, and he | probably is the weakest batter on the club. Home Stand Starts Next Week. THB Nats have no strong illusions at the moment.regarding this se- ries. If Chase and Linke can get by, it then will become a different story, for on Sunday, when a second straight double-header will be played, Jimmy De S8hong and Wes Ferrell will be ready for action. Immediately after Sunday's twin bill, the Griffs will grab & train for Washington, where they are sched- uled to open another long home stand next Tuesday against the White Sox. This stand at Griffith Stadium is something to which the Nats are looking forward. Barring that sweep of this series, the Washington firm will be able to show nothing more than a pretty sad record for its activities on the road. But its home ‘work is not so bad. The off-day yesterday did nothing to disturb Harris. With Carl Fischer gold, he only has eight pitchers, and one of these, Bucky Jacobs, is fresh out of the collegiate ranks and hardly ready for major league tests. Most of the Nats spent the afternoon at the Browns' ball park, where the | Yanks were playing. That was their | idea of spending a day off. REDS BUY BALL CLUB.

Postmen’s Day Off. | Special Dispatch to The St T. LOUIS, July 23.—"I guess there S is always hope for a ball club when this happens,” mused Mr. Stanley Raymond Harris, nodding to a portion of the grandstand at Sportsman's Park. With few exceptions, Mr. Harris' entire club was sitting there. The Nats had no game scheduled and were free to go where they pleased. But when the clock struck 2, they decided to break up their pinochle games and to abandon ideas of sitting in an air-condi- tioned movie. So out to the ball game they went. “Maybe we can learn a few tricks, t00,” Mr. Harris continued, meaning from the Yankees. But yesterday was not the Yanks' day. The Browns taught the champs a lesson. In the process they also warned the Griffs that under the reins of Jim Bottomley they may become tougher. Ball players at a ball game are not much different than ordinary fans. | They can call pitches and plays much better, of course, but they pull for their | heroes and razz the others like anybody ‘When Mr. Bump Hadley, f'rinstance, % complained of a pulled muscle in the | second inning, the Nats gave him quite | a going over. Mr. Hadley, who started for the Yanks, filled the bases with none out and threw three straight balls to the hitter when he pulled up. There was an exchange of knowing winks among the Griffs. “He doesn't want it,” observed Harris. “It's the old gag. He wants out.” Hadley walked in a little circle in the box and finally headed for the dug- out. Frank Makosky took his place and the game went on. “Fork Ball” Is Explained. “] DON'T see how this fellow gets by,” | commented- Harris, pointing to Makosky. “All he’s got is that fork ball,” said | e Joe Kuhel. “He isn't fast enough for you to worry about slipping a fast ball by you.” “Still,” amended Harris, “he can get that fork ball over when he wants to. Tt isn't a bad pitch.” Somebody wanted to know exactly what a fork ball was. “He sticks the ball between his first two fingers,” supplied Harris, “and lets it go. Try it some time.” “It's like a screw ball,” added Kuhel. “It slows down when it comes to the plate and dips down and to one side. ‘That's all you've got to worry about with Makosky pitching.” Apparently, judging from Kuhel's tone, that is negligible worry to & big league batter. Later in the after- noon, when Lefty Gomez went out in the bull pen to warm up for to- morrow, Kuhel and the rest of the Nats explained what real trouble was. Di Maggio Rated League's Best. “LOOKIT that guy,” said Jimmy De Shong, motioning to Gomez. ‘“‘He's the fastest thing I've ever seen. Lookit that ball take off!” At pe- riodic intervals the ¢'bang” of Gomez's fast ball in Arndt Jorgens’ glove could be heard all over the park. Every time Joe Di Maggio stepped to the plate, the Nats leaned forward expectantly. Some clubs are sure they know what to pitch to Di Mag but the Washington firm hasn't decided. “I'm convinced,” offered Secretary Eddie Eynon, “that he can’t hit low, in- | side pitches.” _Harris puckered his lips. “Well, anyway,” he answered, else, ‘“you mow are looking at the best.” What did he mean by “the best”? “The best all-around playemin the American League,” said Harris. “I think Di Maggio is just that. Di Maggio first, Charley Gehringer sec- ond, and Gehrig, probably, third.” Di Maggio struck out the first time | up. De Shong, Monte Weaver and the other pitchers watched closely. “Knott threw him nothing but side- arm curves,” said De Shong. “That's what worries Di Maggio . . . side- arm curves.” - “Curse” Off Knick Helps. THE Browns went to work on Makosky in the third inning and loaded the bases. was at bat. “Here's the only St. Louis | player I hope doesn't do well,” mut- tered Secretary Eynon, who has not forgotten that Knickerbocker-Sim- mons fist fight. “I got to admire him now,” put in somebody. “Knickll fight, I'll say that for him. He's game.” “‘Well,” amended Eynon, “I'll take my curse off him this once. 1 hope he gets a hit . . . and there it is.” A single off Knick's bat scored two runs and the Browns were ahead, 11 to 1. “The Yanks are dead ducks,” said Harris. Tony Lazzeri walked to the plate 8 little later. “Hey, Stooge!” yelled De Shong, who regards Tony as his closest friend, but a little later, when Lazzeri booted a ball, De Shong didn't yell. The other Nats jokingly put Tony on the pan and De Shong was taking it hard. He changed his seat for a couple of innings so as to be out of earshot. In the end the Browns staved off a few Yank bids and won the ball game and that was all there was to it. If nothing else, the fact that Jack Knott held Di Maggio hitless con- vinced the Griff pitchers that a side- arm curve has Di Mag’s number. Did somebody say that's a fine how-do- you-do when the Washington pitchers have to learn from the Browns? o MORE TOIL FOR FELLER Tribe Will Use Fireball Hurler on Every Fifth Day. CLEVELAND, July 22 (#)—Instead of being held for Sunday duty to lure large crowds, Fireball Tosser Bob Feller has been ticketed as a starting pitcher every fifth day. He will start for the Cleveland Indians tomorrow against the Boston Red Sox as the first step in this direc- tion, Manager Steve O'Neill said. “I want to get Bob working on a normal schedule,” said O'Neill, Bill Knickerbocker | Given Call Over Grant for Davis Cup Tennis Play Opening Tomorrow.

Ga., July 23.—A mid- season hold-out for less money today convinced Manager Milton Stock of the Macon Peaches that there was something new under the base ball sun. Glen Mulineaux, Newbern, N. C, in the Coastal Plain League, refused to sign a Macon contract for more money than he was getting with the class D club. Stock said the only explanation from Mulineaux for refusing pro- motion to the class B Sally League was that he didn't want to change teams at this time of year. “The next move is,up to him,” Stock said. mopping his brow after a four-hour argument. Mulineaux, an outfielder, was leading his league with a .370 batting average. recalled from HORNSBY, BROWNS SETT0 SLING MUD Deposed Pilot Is Eager to Talk After Club Bids for Court Fight. 8taff Correspondent of The Btar. T. LOUIS, July 23.—One of the more intense mud-slinging cam- paigns in base ball history loomed today as Rogers Horns- by, deposed manager of the St. Louis Browns, continued to plan a legal at- tack on President Donald Barnes. Hornsby wants to flle a claim for $30,000. “I feel that I have a just claim,” Hornsby told interviewers today. “The Browns owe me $30,000. My contract called for $20,000 a season and covered two years. I got the slip after I had served only half of this year's sched- ule.” Barnes offered him $5,000 when he “fired” Hornsby. The mud-slinging threats began when Barnes, hearing of Hornsby's threat to carry his claim to court, sald: “We'll welcome a court battle, al- though I don't think that Hornsby will g0 that far. We discharged Hornsby for ‘cause’ and I am certain that Rogers knows the full meaning of ‘cause.’ " Knows About Browns. ORNSBY countered with threat- ening words when he said: “After I get my financial matters straightened out I may have some- thing to say about my case and I might do some talking about some of the players. When I say ‘the players’ I mean Jim Boftomley and Rollie Hemsley. “Get this,” added Hornsby, “I'm not sore at Bottomley for getting my job. Some one had to become manager. But Jim owes me a lot. He was prac- tically washed up as a player when I made the deal for him with the Cin- cinnati Reds in the Spring of 1936. “Jim and I got along swell,” con- cluded Hornsby, “and if he is smart he will not do too much popping off. I know a thing or two about what's going on with the Browns.” Ready, aim—fire! EASTON CLIMBING BACK Pulls to Within Half Game of Lead in Shore League. B: the Assoctated Press. The Easton Brownies, knocked out of the Eastern Shore League lead on July 11, found themselves within strik- ing distance of the top again today. Only half a game separated the Browns from the league-leading Fed- eralsburg Athletics, with whom they have waged a feud for top honors for weeks. Easton gained last night by taking & 10-to-9 decision from Pocomoke City. At the same time, the Salisbury Indians were knocking off Federals- burg, 2 to 0.

Wally (The Clutch) Berger came through again with a ninth-inning homer to beat the Reds, and the Phils put on a seven-run splurge in the eighth to take a sure thing from the Cubs.
