Dodgers Eager to Trade Van Mungo if They Can Produce Him | Millions in Words Being Spent in Diamond Mart, Little in Cash. BY JOHN LARDNER. EW YORK, October 16.—Still listed among the missing is one (1) right-hand pitcher with a Carolina brogue, a strong arm and the disposition of a hungry hyena, answering—when the spirit moves him—to the name of Van Lingle Mungo. If you see this whimsical character wandering anywhere between Banff and the big ditch at Panama wrap him up and send him postpaid to the business office of the Brooklyn Dodger ball club. The reward is $2.50 in cash or stamps, or two| outfielders. You have your choice. | The Brooklyns would not offer so | vast an amount if they didn't want | Mungo badly, for trading purposes. | It's a mortal cinch that Van Lingle | will be traded. The Dodgers cannot hold him. He wants to pitch elsewhere, and as long as his record in Brooklyn 18 no better than nine wins, two dis- appearances and one cash fine the Dodgers might as well get what they ean for him. It will be embarrass- ing, though, if they fail to produce the body after a deal has been made. How Wrigley Might React. SUPPOSE that Mr. P. K. Wrigley of Chicago interrupts the pro- oeedings to inquire: “Can you produce this Mungo in good condition? In fact, are you prepared to swear that there is a Mungo?” “Certainly there is,” says Mr. John M. F. Gorman of Brooklyn, sweating profusely. “I know there is a Mungo, Just as sure as I know there is a 8anta Claus. I was taught to be- lieve in both of them, at my father's knee.” “At your father's knee?” demands | the remorseless Wrigley. “Well, right near there,” says Gor- man, who now is badly shaken. “Have you ever seen Mungo? As a matter of fact, have you ever seen this Claus you speak of? Who is| Claus, anyway, an outfielder?” in- quires Mr. Wrigley, always interested in scratching up new talent. You can imagine the confusion of | Mr. John M. F. Gorman at this point. “I know positively that there is a | Mungo,” he says. “I can produce | seven witnesses to swear to it. Please take him “No sale,” says Mr. Wrigley, coldly. | “Well, will you take the seven wit- | hesses, then?” says Mr. Gorman. now | desperate. | “No sale,” says Mr. Wrigley, and the deal falls through—unless, of course, they find Mr. Mungo in the mean- time. Between you and me, I believe that when Mr. Mungo hears he has been traded to the Cubs he will come bounding forth from his cave with all the joy and good will in the world. That is just the kind of break he has been asking for. Trade With Cubs Hinted. MR. P. K. WRIGLEY genuinely is interested in the acquisition of Mungo, to bolster his Cubs for next year's pennant drive. He has hinted | that he might trade Frank Demaree, | Clay Bryvant and Tuck Stainback for the big fire-baller. The Brooklyn club has hinted in turn that it might be| interested in Demaree, Stainback and Larry French. But Mr. Wrigley dis- regards this last proposition. “I think Mungo is a great pitcher,” he said the other day, “and I know he'd help us, all right, but why should | I give my whole club for him? I don't want to strengthen the Cubs in one place by weakening them in another.” Mr. Wrigley added that he might * REWARD OF $250 the third period. HERETOFORE unsung philan- A thropist of sport mainly is re- sponsible for the classic bicycle party to be thrown in Potomac Park, a thrill-promising affair engag- ing approximately 165 of the fore- most speed pedalers in the United States. His name is Joseph Norman “Gus” Romm. Since coming to Washington in 1912 Romm has applied the ma- chinist trade he learned in Uncle Sam’s Navy to the bicycle business. ‘Those who take their cycling seri- ously can thank Gus as much as any one else in the country for keeping the sport alive. He probably is the Nation's No. 1 bicycle enthusiast. Back 1921 he sponsored and promoted the first national amateur championship meet, now under the supervision of the Amateur Bicycling League of America. Since that time these meets have been staged annually, the last having been held this Fall at Buffalo, N. Y. Gus’ Hobby Expensive. IIROM 1921 to 1926, Romm devoted his spare time to building a cycle tear. to represent Washington in all meets in the East and during those years he turned out big winners. Charles Smithson, Chester Atwood and Robert J. Connor were Romm proteges who made cycling history. Keeping his gang in shape was ex- pensive for Gus, who estimates that in each of those years he spent easily $1.000 for food and travel. “Many’s the night me and the kids—about 60 of them—slept together in the little store up on Ninth street before gettin’ up about 4 o'clock in the mornin’ and m‘s Al Kidwell going through center for Eastern’s second touchdown in D. C. Mar’s Money and Effort Lead in Booming Bike Sport; Nation’s Aces Vie Tomorrow hittin’ the road for Baltimore. We'd get there ’'bout 7:30 an’ I'd set the bunch up to a little breakfast and then we'd head for home,” said Gus. “Why, every six weeks or so we'd take a trip like that with me ridin’ a bicycle along with them.” He recalled the numerous occasions “me and th’ kids” went to Great Falls or Fairfax Court House on picnics with the chow bill hitting 50 or 60 bucks. “But I don't regret a bit of it,” said Gus, “it's always been my hobby just like other guys go for horse racing or golf.” Film Girls Give Him Idea. EVERAL years ago a circular depict- ing beautiful Hollywood girls rid- ing bicycles to preserve those alluring lines gave him an idea and soon after- ward Washingtonians were offered their first two-bit bike-ride station down at Ninetee. th street and Penn- sylvania avenue. Since that time he has taken on the bike concession at the Speedway and its popularity stead- ily is increasing. He sold an average of 7,000 rides a week during the last Summer. ‘Romm concedes Willie Cauffman, Washington lad who placed twelfth in the national meet at Buffalo last month, a fair chance of victory in the 15-mile classic tomorrow. As for the girls, he feels that Doris Kopsky, na- tional women's champion, will have to do some tall pumpin’ to stay ahead of little Betty Sweeney, the Washington lass who carried off fifth-place hon- ors in the national event. “Anything can happen, though,” says Gus, “as the cream of the Nation's riders will be in there.” FOXHOUND TRIALS 10 START MONDAY Strong Fields Likely for An- nual Maryland Meet at Rockuville. listen to reason in a trade involving his shortstop, Billy Jurges. And Brook- | lyn, meanwhile, is keeping two irons | in the furnace by dickering with Mr. | Branch Rickey of the St. Louls Cardinals. If the Cardinals trade for Mungo, it's almost certain that Dizzy Dean will be mixed up in the deal, since the Cards have nothing else of prime importance to offer but Med- wick, who seems to be theirs for life. | Talk Is Cheap. THE base ball trading market is busy, in the usual way—millions | for conversation, but not one cent for ball players. William Harold Terry, | executor of the late New York Giants, is said to be up there on the auction platform with Schumacher in one hand, Berger in the other, and Johnny | McCarthy in his hip pocket, ready for | delivery. The Phils are trading Camilll | again, on paper, with Bill Atwood as| reserve bait. There may be a Phil- | Giant deal involving some of these athletes and also some cash—Giant cash. t But it's common practice in the ivory market to talk nine minutes of | balderdash for every minute of real| business. That's why the odds always | are 9 to 1 against a likely trade be- ing consummated. Only two deals are “musts” at the | moment. The Boston Bees must get themselves a manager. The field just now seems narrowed to three candi- dates, Casey Stengel, Tony Lazzeri and Rabbit Maranville, with President Bob Quinn favoring Stengel and several powerful Boston spokesmen holding out for Maranville. “That’s one “must.” The other is that Brooklyn must trade Mungo—if there is a Mungo.

Special Dispatch to The Star. OCKVILLE, Md., October 16.— According to the secretary, Mrs. Bernard T. Brosius of Rockville, unusual interest is being manifested in the annual field trials next week of the Maryland Fox | Hunters’ Association and the most| successful meet yet sponsored by the State-wide organization is indicated. The sport will begin Monday and continue through Friday with the farm of Charles H. Carrico near Congres- sional Country Club as headquarters. Inquiries from various points in Mary- land, Virginia, West Virginia, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania and other places are interpreted as meaning that many fine hounds will compete in both the derby and all- age events, the total number being| estimated at approximately 150. Many handsome trophies which are on exhibition in a Rockville store win- | dow, will be among the prizes awarded. Hounds to Be Cast Early. 'HE hounds will be cast each morn- ing at 6:45 o'clock. The casting grounds will be near the Carrico farm the first day, but where the hounds will be released the other days has not been announced. As red foxes, which know how to run, are said to be plentiful in the county, fine sport seems assured if favorable weather prevails. In comnection with the trials, there will be a bench show at headquarters the second day for hounds participat- ing in the trials, and an oyster roast, also at headquarters, the afternoon of the final day. A horn-blowing con- test also will be a feature. The derby will be run the first two days and the all-age the other days. George A. Willson of Lay Hill, Md, will be master of hounds. Association Officers. THE officers of the association are: President, A. G. Rolfe, Washing- ton; George A. Willson, Lay Hill, vice president; Mrs. Bernard T. Brosius, Rockville, secretary; Josiah J.

KLAHOMA CITY, October 16. —Horton Smith and Harry Cooper seemed the boys to beat today as 16 crack pro- fessional golfers started around the half-way post in Oklahoma City's $5.000 four-ball tournament. As they teed off for the fourth 18- hole round in this 126-hole marathon today, Smith and Cooper, the Chi- cago veterans, led with four points. Right behind them, with three points, were Johnny Revolta of Chi- cago and Ray Mangrum of Dayton, ©Ohio, who slowed Cooper and Smith by beating them one up in the second round yesterday. Smith-Cooper Take Lead. BU’I’ Smith-Cooper scooted to the front with a 3-up win over Jimmy Thomson, Shawnee-on-the-Delaware, and Tommy Armour of Chicago in the afternoon’s third round. Revolta and Mangrum blasted Ralph Guldahl, national open champ from Chicago, and Billy Burke of White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., out of the lead with a 3-up third-round triumph. Mangrum clipped four strokes off par with 67 to give him and Revolta & low ball of 64, lowest to date. Lawson Little of Chicago and Paul Runyan of New York suffered their first setback when Ed Dudley of Phila- delphia and Jimmy Hines of New York whipped them, 1-up, in the third round but their 2-up victory over Ky Laffoon and Dick Metz of Chicago left them in third place with two Ppoints.

SPOT FOR LAZZER BASE BALL PUZLLE Boston, St. Louis Not Keen About 12-Year Veteran Yankees Release. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, October 16 —Tony Lazzeri, the battle-weary sec- ond baseman who announced player and then stole the world series spotlight, stood on the threshold of the second phase of his major league career today. Cast loose from the New York Yan- kees, the club he served for 12 years at second base, Anthony Michael is free to grab the managerial job he hopes will be offered. News of a probable of- fer “as coach or assistant manager” caused the Yanks to release Tony last night, the club said, but it refused to divulge the team or teams that wished to dicker with Tony. The St. Louis Browns and the Bos- ton Bees are the clubs most prom- inently mentioned in speculation on Tony's 1938 destination. Each club lost a manager this season. Bill Mc- Kechnie left the Bees for the Cincin- nati Reds and a substantial raise, and the Browns dropped Rogers Hornsby in midseason. Boston, St. Louis Uninterested. TRST reactions to Tony's release weren't ecstatic in either city. ‘With Bob Quinn on vacation, Boston fans took the news in stride, and Hub | sports writers leaned toward Casey Stengel, ex-Brooklyn manager. Presi- dent Don Barnes and General Man- ager Bill De Witt of the Browns were both out of town. but St. Louis sports writers expressed little belief that Tony would be selected as manager. The Browns like Gabby Street, ex-Cardinal leader, for the job, but some sources indicate the club will make a bid for Tony's services. Two other clubs in the American League, the Philadelphia Athletics and the Cleveland Indians, are possibilities. Roy Mack, vice president of the A's, | seemingly quashed all rumors of Laz- zeri's addition to the A's with a terse “there’s nothing to it” last night, but some base ball men believe Tony may yet hook up as Connie Mack’s assist- ant. their present manager, Steve O'Neill, only recently. The Tribe tried to get Tony as a playing manager in 1936, but the Yankees refused to let him go. However, O'Neill has not yet | been signed for next season. Stars at Driving Over Runs. SINCE he came to the Yanks in 1926 after setting a home-run record in Salt Lake City in 1925 with 60 round-trip wallops, Tony has been & spectacular member of the New York cast. He has played on six American League champion and five world champion clubs. His passing leaves Lou Gehrig as the only playing member of the 1926 team still on the Yankees. Known to his teammates as “Nino” and to the fans as “Poosh 'Em Up,” Lazzerl always was a terrific hitter, his average dropping as he grew older, but his ability to drive runs home and to think clearly in the clutch never deserting him. His lifetime major league average is around .290, and he has driven in nearly 1,200 runs. A sure flelder, Tony played Amer- ican hitters with infinite craft and frequently advised pitchers on batters’ weaknesses, He gained ambiguous fame by fanning against Grover Cleve- land Alexander in the final game of the 1926 world series, but came back in 1927 to star with the greatest team :{ the Huggins-Ruth era at the sta- um, Greatest Feat Last Year. NY'S most phenomenal major league feat came in 1936, the twilight of his career. In a single game against the Athletics on May 23, he pounded three homers, two with the sacks full, and a triple to drive in 11 runs and shatter numerous records. This season Tony felt the end of his playing career was near. With young Joe Gordon on his way up from the Yankees' Newark farm, and Don Heffner performing adequately as his understudy, Tony was ready to call it & career. He announced his retire- ment as a player late in the season, but the world series saw him back at the old stand, directing infleld play like a master, hitting .400 and generally taking the play away from younger and more agile teammates. Tony has sought a job as & manager for the last three years. So when the Yankees in their own words “received word from a reliable source that you (Lazzer{) have a chance to sign with a major league club as a coach or assistant manager” they let him go. —_— Today a year ago—Lou Gehrig received 73 points out of possible 80 and was voted most valuable player in American League for 1936 by Base Ball Writers' Asso~ clation. his retirement as an active | The Indians reaffirmed their belief | Wilson High Gridders Prove No Match for Eastern’s Eleven Eastern’s captain in action again, this time picking up 5 yards in a dash —Star Staff Photos. = SR e l than that. “What was the best shot you hit ail day?” we asked Betty, as she relaxed in the club house following the tough- est golf match she has been in for many a day, a match in which she only licked Marion Brown of Manor by | a single hole. “Um-m-m’I hit some pretty good ones, and a lot of bad ones. But—wait a minute—sure— that's easy. The best shot I hit was that one to You know I could have missed badly. The ball lay | the bunker and anything might have | happened. But somehow I got it |up there within putting distance of the hole.” As a matter of fact she knocked it 4 feet from the cup and it won the title for her. You'll hear about the stymie shot she negotiated on the eighteenth, where she hopped a 2-footer over Miss Brown's ball for the needed half, but that shot to the seventeenth green won the match.
