And from this second straight Week end serfes should come a fairly definite line on which of the two out- Ots will finish with the flag. No other outfit appears to have any ntention of challenging these two. The Cubs, at the moment, have a $hree-game lead on the Giants, and $he rest of the loop, strung out seven games and more behind, seems to be more interested in the price of ice at the North Pole than in any attempt to overtake the two leaders.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., Giants, Cubs Wage Private War ’Di Maggio, Most Coveted Ball Player, Seen * As Difference Between a Winner and Loser BY JOHN LAR R. EW YORK, July 30.—Rest your eyes on Giuseppe Paolo Di Maggio with a look composed of one (1) part envy, one (1) part gloom and one (1) part kleptomania, and right there, with- out the aid of whiskers or grease paint, you are doing a pretty fair impersonation of an American League manager. Take Joe Cronin, for instance. Joe is an American League manager in every sense of the word. He first saw and sang the praises of Di Maggio when the kid was a green outfielder in San Francisco, and today Mr. Cronin is singing the same tune. “Any one of four clubs in this league,” says Joe, “could win the pen- nant if they had Di Maggio—I mean Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland and my own club in Boston. That boy is a great ball player and he means the difference betweer winning and losing for the Yankees.” He's a Handy Fellow. HERE is a commandment some- where in the law books which says “Thou shalt not covet thy neigh- bor's Di Maggio,” but the managers around the American League have broken it to pieces. Whenever they see neighbor Joe McCarthy they frankly and openly covet his Di Mag- gio. That very likely accounts for the smug smile you see on Mr. McCarthy's pan from time to time, when he is not worrying about his pitchers. Di Mag means a lot to the Yanks. I don't know if I agree with Joe Cronin that he makes all the differ- ence between winning and losing a pennant, because the Yankees are a powerful and balanced ball club with or without the walloping Joe—but he certainly is a handy fellow to have around. Last year at this time Giuseppe was a freshman with a set of gaudy aver- ages in hitting, runs scored, runs bat- ted in and extra bases, but there were skeptics stalking the land who spoke darkly of the career and habits of the morning glory, a species of vegetation which opens the day with a bang, or so 1 am told, anc falls to its knees, yelling “foul,” before lunch time. Well, Di Maggio was no morning- glory. The surer scouts could have told you that last season. William Terry, watching Giuseppe perform in the world series, said: “Every move that kid makes he makes like a ball player.” And Bob Quinn of the Bees added last month: “An old lady with one eye could have scouted Di Maggio and told you he was the goods.” Just now Giuseppe is batting .370 and trailing Hank Greenberg and Joe Medwick closely in the runs-batted-in dcpartment with 92. Mest interest- ing of all, he is barking on the scent of the immortal Ruth’'s immortal home run record of 60—count 'em—60, achieved in 1927 at the peak of the Jackrabbit era. Facts and Figures. ERE are a couple of vital statis- tics on home run production: 1927—Ruth, 90 games, 31 home runs. 1937—Di Maggio, 85 games, 28 home runs. The number of games I mention is the number played by the ball club, not by the individual player. That gives you a clearer idea of the rela- tion between Ruth's record and Di Maggio’s challenge. These figures are teasers, more than anything else, because I don't think Di Maggio has much chance of tying or beating the record. But any way you look at the total, it's a lot of home runs. And the young man still is a sophomore, with his future before him. (Copyright, 1937, by the North American Newspaper Alliance Inc.) S ‘%D/'// DismerJr" ‘WO of the four players who will | battle for the public parks| doubles championship tomor- row afternoon on the Six- teenth Street Reservoir courts faced | each other across the nets for the same title ‘last season. Ray Stocklinski and Allie Ritzen- berg are the ones. Last year, paired with Herb Shenkin, Stocklinski trimmed Allie and his brother, Nate, in four sets. Tomorrow Stocklinski will take the court with Harry March, one of the local Junior Davis Cup stars, while Allie will team with another brother, Hy. The other half of the Ritzenberg team last year is now a professional and Shenkin did not enter this year's tourney. Both of tomorrow's finalists had their hands full with semi-final op- 2, — =) ponents yesterday, both being carried | to the limit of three sets. March and | Stocklinski started out all right | against Maurice Goubeau and Melvin | Tarpleyv with a 6—1 victory, but dropped the middle set, 8—10, and | were forced to fight for an 8—6 de- cision in the third. The Ritzenbergs, however, were forced to reveal the real moxie, coming back after a 6—3 reversal in the first set and being down 5—3 in the second.

A sudden coming | with telling effect, however, inspired the brothers to deuce the match and | less spectators than usual. set the stage for the deciding—in their favor—encounter. Tomorrow's championship doubles match starts at 3 o'clock. SUNDAY'S singles finalists were to be decided today, when Stocklinski, seeded one. met Tarpley, the unseeded star, and Allie Ritzenberg, seeded two, met Joe Baker, also unseeded Tarpley, who looks like he belonged i on a basket ball court, with the phy- | sique of a natural courtman, was a slight under-dog despite his impressive record to date. This lad, who left Tampa, Fla., undefeated after 12 years, is not thought to have regained his | tull potentialities in the few weeks he has been playing. At any rate, the final will produce at least one, and possibly two, new taces from last year's title match, which found Nate Ritzenberg beating Allie for the crown. It Baker upsets Allie, both finalists will be new to the title round. 'OR some reason, the current public parks tournament is attracting Despite the fact that both semi-final matches were played vesterday, 38 spectators— which included the umpire, ground- keeper, three newspaper reporters and a baby (!)—constituted the entire gallery. If one must be brutally frank, com- petition has been on an inferior plane to past years, it being doubtful that any of today's semi-finalists would have reached the quarter-finals two years ago.

HORNSBY IS HITTER EVEN N OWL GAME Dislikes Night Base Ball, but Gets Homer to Win for Semi-Pros. By the Associated Press. ENVER, July 30.— Rogers Hornsby would just as soon play his base ball in the day- light. Even the towering home run he smashed over the right field fence in a Denver Post tournament game last night hasn’t won him over to “owl” base ball, he said today. The blow came in his first time at bat in the uniform of the Bay Refiners, Denver semi-pro club, in its opening tourney tilt against Worland, Wyo. ‘The Denverites slaughtered their rivals, 25 to 0, in seven innings. Rajah swung hard at the first pitch served up by Harlow Davis, 18-year-old Worland pitcher, then connected with the second. Cliff Lee, once an out- fielder for the Philadelphia Phillies, scored ahead of Hornsby. The homer, which won for Hornsby & pair of shoes offered by a Denver restaurant, was his only hit in three official times at bat. He was walked three times. Playing first base, he had only three flelding chances. ROLLINS HIRES COACH.

BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, July 30.—This is a story about Mickey Cochrane's condition and it's like getting & wisdom tooth pulled to tell it. It would be swell to write that Mickey is well and happy again, ready to step into his old, familiar role as head man of the Detroit Tigers as they start their Eastern invasion against the New York Yankees. Every base ball player and fan wants to hear that news but it can't be told. Mickey, making his first trip with his Tigers since he was bean-balled by Bump Hadley of the Yankees two months ago, allowed sports writers in for an interview and many came away depressed. Physically, Mickey looks good, but he isn't. Dizzy spells still plague him. He tires after the slightest exertion. He 15 lucky when he can get a good night’s sleep. He worries no end. It takes a lot of humor, well placed, to get the famous grin back on his face, Has Gloomy Outlook. LAY again? Mickey's given up hopes of donning the mask and taking his old cut at the plate. As he feels today, he'll be lucky to get back as active manager of the ball club. “Don't know what will happen,” he said gloomily. “Sometimes I feel pretty good. Then again, I get bad dizzy spells and so tired I don't give a hang it school keeps or not. I was kind of hoping I could get into uniform today but I don't know. I feel loggy.” Some Detroit base ball writers think Mickey may be improved enough to take over the managerial helm with his old gusto by next Spring time. Others fear he won't be able even to do that. A right gloomy fellow even when everything is hotsy-totsy, Mickey failed to smile much as the sports writers tried to tell him funny stories. Only occasionally did he brighten up. “Think any team can catch the Yanks?” he was asked. “Anything can happen in base ball, but it looks like a tough job,” he re- plied. FRANKLIN IN RING TEST.

Threats IFINE FIELD OPENS MEET TOMORROW 'D.C. N etmen Facing Task in Effort to Keep Tennis Title of Section. BY BILL DISMER, Jr. ARKED by the presence of more out-of-town players than have entered a local tennis event in years, the Middle Atlantic tournament gets under | way at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon on the courts of the Edgemoor Club. Although the draw will not be made until 8 o'clock tonight, an even dozen racketers from Pennsylvania, New Jersey and West Virginia were in- cluded among the more than 60 al- ready signed up for the competition for sectional supremacy this morn- ing. Heading the visiting delegation were Frank (Buddy) Goeltz of Wilkes- Barre, William T. Tilden, 3d, of | Philadelphia} Tom Ridgeway of Princeton and Hunter Lott of Phila- delphia—ranked tenth, eleventh, thir- teenth and sixteenth, respectively, in| the Middle States’ Association. Penn- sylvania further was represented by Joe Oldhausen of Philadelphia, Jack Davidson of Ursinus College, Tommy Miller of Wilkes-Barre and Paul Hildebrand, Frank Kreska and Chester Kreska—the latter three from Al bright College. . In addition, West Virginia was represented in a local tournament | for the first time in a long while, | Dick Howell and David Dalvelle com- ing from the Mountaineer State. Local Players Face Trouble. IN THE face of such a formidable | array, Washington players may be | hard pressed to keep the sectional | title within their own border. Goeltz, | who was seeded No. 1 among the| “foreign” element last year, reached | the semi-finals in 1936, being elimi- | nated by Lieut. John McCue in three | sets. Lott, seeded second last year,| was put out only by Gilbert Hunt,| the ultimate champion, who will not | be back to defend his crown. Lott's| exit came in the quarter-finals after he had handily beaten Tony Latona, one of the District'’s best. These two alone promise enough trouble for local racket-swingers and with no Hunt or McCue here this| Season, mav go even farther. The fact that Tilden and Ridgeway are | ranked ahead of Lott in the Middle | States’ Association indicate that they | | may prove just as menacing. In the absence of Hunt and Barney Welsh, District champion, both of whom are planning to compete at Southampton next week, Doply Mitchell, third-ranking District net- | man, is expected to be seeded No. 1. Hugh Lynch, finalist {n the District tournament last year, probably will get the second seeded spot. According to committee plans, early-round matches tomorrow and Sunday will start at 2 o'clock. There- after, competition will be restricted to late afternoon hours so that the | final match will fall on & week from Sunday, August 8.

[ feated " Perfac 5—1. par) Bv GeoraE £ HuseR - FTER consulting fishing maps, the Weather Bureau, guides, past performance charts and gazing into the crystal ball, here is our prediction for week-end anglers: Chesapeake Bay—No bluefish, none around this way anyway. For the area near Solomons there are trout, rock, hardhead and spot. Best fishing is at night or late evening, nothing much being done in the daytime. Wednesday of this week Ollie Atlas tried it with no luck, but the same evening every one who went out got | all they wanted and then some. One of the good loads was brought in by Sam Nace ahd C. C. Oates, who captured 110 hardhead, spot and trout. C. B. Garnett, Fred Gosnell and C. T. Gasnell of Arlington, and Mrs. Leslie Garnett and Paul Brown caught 145 hardhead the same evening at Hooper Island fishing with Capt. Preston Woodburn. Rock also are hitting in that sec- tion. Earlier this week Milton Gordon and Fred Shafstrif, fishing on Capt. George Bowen's Maryland, caught 14 hetween 2 and 4 pounds. All were taken on Junebug spinner and blood- worms. The fish just would not bite on either feathers or drones, Gordon said. As to size, the spot are rather small, while the trout and hardhead are running very large. UP ON the Gooses not a trout, spot, rock or blue is in sight. But the hardhead are there, plenty of them. Here, too, night fishing is best. As an example of what is going on, observe what was done in the way of slaugh- tering fish Tuesday night A party of eight from Wash- ington, fishing with Capt. Jim Blanche of Kenwood Beach, caught at least 300 hardhead. Total weight of their haul was 520 pounds. In the party were S. W.| Steed, Paul Kelly, Floyd Martin, Carl De Souza. Isaac De Souza, J. T. Phil- ips, Andrew Kopzeh and R. L. Johnson, Shrimp was the bait used Capt. T. E. Jones of North Beach also has been reporting excellent catches from the Gooses all this week, with best results being had at night or early evening. UPPER BAY, Galesville and Shady- side sector—Plenty hardhead, some rock and a few trout. Day or night fishing here hasn't made much difference this week, except, of course, that fish aren’t biting in heat of day. They seldom do anywhere. POINT LOOKOUT—Rock, big boys, Just inside river. Capt. Walter Cheseldine has taken them up to 8 pounds this week. Also hundreds of perch and spot and some trout show- ing. This holds true for Tall Timbers and Piney Point area. LACK BASS—Streams are clear or clearing. 1If no rains tonight there should be some mossback angling over the week end. Look for deep holes and cold. spots over springs, except early morning and late evening when bass can be counted on to feed inshore. ‘VACHAPREAGU'E‘ Va.—Big catches of flounders, hardhead and por- gles recently, according to A. H. G. Mears. Channel bass catches are lim- ited. The trout run is due at any time. LTHOUGH trout fishing s closed for nother season, local anglers who cast in the Alle- gheny National Forest will be interested in some of the stream ime provement work being carried on in that section. An inspection of the work has been completed by T. C. Fearnow of the Forest Service, who until recently was stationed in Washe ington. His report shows that on 12 miles of fishing waters on six different streams improved throuch installation of approved devices, many of which are entering their third year of serve ice, not one dam has been lost to date, This is a good record when it is re- membered that there have been soma rather bad floods in the past few years. Many excellent pools and shel- ters on streams formerly char- acterized by sluggish, shallow waters have been created by dams and deflectors. It is becoming apparent that trout streams in the forest are overcoming the early handicap of widespread luma bering and forest fires and are ree sponding to improvement work. HE present policy of the Forest Service is to stock feeder streams with fingerlings, and this has shown considerable improvement in condi- tions. In one stream particularly placed under observation, fishing over a period of several years had wiped out the breeding stock. but aince in- stalling the improvement devices and conducting a systematic stocking pro= gram, this condition has been reme- died and legal size trout not only sure vive the fishing season but ascend to the headwaters to spawn. This method produces the na- tive trout so dear to the heart of the angler because of its nat- ural shyness and fighting quali- ties. Of course the streams also are stocked with fish from Federal and State hatcheries, but if the good work keeps up each year will see less neces- sity for bringing in nursery trout. At this time stream improvement work 18 in progress on the east branch of Spring Creek in Elk County, and during the rest of the Summer im- provements will be made on Big Mill Creek in Elk County, Meads Run in McKean County, and Farnsworta Creek in Warren County, REGATTA IS UNDER WAY, Nineteen Sailing Events Open Chester River Program.
