’ SPORTS. Dixie Critics Back Griff’s Judgment in Purchase of Leonard | ograms Foe QU TINTAKES | Armstrong May Abdicate Title He Won From Sarron 0NN STCKS HOLDHE'S OVERDUE FORANDTHER TEST Rate Him Best Pitcher of Last Two Seasons in Southern Circuit. By FRANCIS E. STAN, F IT will provide fuel for the Hot Stove League, word comes from Atlanta that Owner Clark Grif- fith of the Senators picked up a valuable addition to Washington's staff in Emil (Dutch) Leonard. Griffith grabbed Leonard from the Crackers of the Southern Association via the minor league draft. New York baseball rgen, recalling that Leonard was tried once by the Dodgers, cracked: “Once a Dodger, always & Dodger.” Griffith stanchly defended his -in- vestment of $7,500. man. “I hear that he has a chance to help us as a relief pitcher. Anyway, we're going to take a good look at him” Now from points South comes news that Southern Association folk regard Leonard as not only qualified to relieve, but able to start and win. “For two years,” enlightens Ralph McGill of the Atlanta Constitution, “Leonard has been considered the best pitcher in the Southern Association. Able baseball men, such as Doc Prothro, whose Little Rock team won the pennant, and Larry Gilbert of New Orleans have led the | chorus: ‘Why isn't that fellow in the major leagues.'” 1Il, Yet Wins 15 Games. EONARD was up with Brooklyn, given a brief trial and let go. The Cardinals gave him a briefer trial, and from the Breadon firm Atlanta pur- chased him. In the Southern Associa- tion the word is that the Brooklyn and St. Louis catchers did not care to catch him because his best pitch is a fine knuckler, which Leonard controls |' well. The catchers, however, have no idea where the ball will break. Paul Richards, newly appointed manager of the Crackers and formerly a Giant and Athletic catcher, dropped many of Leonard’s knuckle balls when this pair formed Atlanta’'s battery. Richards, however, did not hesitate to call for the knuckler in a pinch, ac- cording to Atlanta correspondents, and that is why Leonard fared so well. Leonard came to Atlanta in the middle of the 1936 season and won 13 games while losing 8. Last season he_was out for more than two months because of illness and yet he won 15 games. “He would have won more than 20 had he not become ill,” claims McGill. Appleton Came Same Way. LEONARD won the esteem of the Atlanta club as a team man and as a courageous fighter. He relieved, in addition to taking his regular turn, and was looked upon as the Crackers’ best hurler under pressure. It adds up to a boost for Leonard in his third crack at the major leagues. Two years ago Griffith picked up Pete Appleton from the Montreal club via the draft. Appleton had failed to make the bigr league grade four times, but last year he proved to be the most effective pitcher on the ‘Washington club and the fifth most effective in the American League, ac- cording to earned-run averages. Pete won 14 and lost 9 in 1936. Last season Appleton did not fare 80 well. He lost more than he wom, and after opening the 1937 campaign as a starter Pete was shifted to the bull-pen, where he remained for the rest of the season. Still, Griffith un- doubtedly got his $7,500 worth out of Appleton in 1936 alone, inasmuch as Pete helped to pitch the Nats into fourth place. —_—m THESS P e it ot By PAUL J.

Position Play—Euwe. , OP‘ LATE Dr. Max Euwe, world champion, has become a prolific writer on chess. Recently he gave the chess world a treatise on strategy and tactics. In the September issue of the Eng- lish magazine, Chess, Euwe has the first of a series of 12 articles designed to raise the standard of play of the average player. What is “combinational” and “positional” play? These are questions the Dutch school- master attempts to answer in article No. 1. Concerning the former, he says: “In a combination the fight becomes concentrated within definite limits for a definitely limited number of moves.” The fight for a good position and its utilization when obtained is “po- sitional” play. “Tactics are the seeking, discovery and carrying out of combination.” According to Euwe a good positional player must be & good tactical player. “‘Combinational play is not the antith- esis of positional play, but its ally, ) A “I want him to | finish games,” quoth the old gentle- | Ingram’s Foe AL REID, Curly-haired New Yorker, who meets local featherweight in feature bout at Turher’s Arena “ ”» £ Club” Fights. and Ray Ingram, fidgety noble but thus far non-profitable ex- | Able to entice only 864 customers | fight cards, Promoter Joe Turner and | the same lines. with the winner slated to meet Lou tonight.

Another six-round bout lists Pete Galiano, veteran Baltimore light- weight, clashing with Jack Giacalone, Italian stablemate of Reid. ‘The remainder of the card leans de- cidedly toward the amateur side, with Steve Mamakos and Maynard Daniels making their second professional starts in four-rounders. Mamakos will face Charley Rondo, Baltimore welter- weight, while Daniels bumps into Joe Sofia, Baltimore heavyweight. Action will get under way at 8:30 o'clock. O'NEIL BEATS ARLINGTONS.

McCALLUM. i OOK for the national women's ' | golf championship in Washing- | Spurred on by the fact that | the United States Golf Association | has reiaxed its attitude against send- ing major tournaments south into the crab grass and Bermuda belt, the woman golfers of the Capital are talk- ing in serious tones about a stipng bid for the national title tourney within a few years. And the big point is they have a good chance to get it. Chevy Chase held the Curtis Cup matches in September of 1934, a little | affair which definitely placed the Na- tional Capital on the map as a center of major golf affairs for women. D. C. Organization Highly Rated. BUT above that the Women's Dis- trict Golf Association has grown |50 in strength and influence that to- Aay it is one of the ranking feminine links organizations in the country. They're fecling their power now and they want to show the world they can handle a big show as successfully as they've handled the smaller sectional | women’s affairs in this sector. The | course hasn’t been chosen, but the | women feel that the matter of course | selection is comparatively minor. With 50 many fine golf courses scattered around the country within a few miles of the Capital they feel that the busi- ness of choosing a course good enough for the national won't be too hard a job. The big point is that they want the national and they have a way of getting what they want. | Played Here Last in 1908: - “'WE FEEL that we can handle the | big show as well as it has been | handled in any city in the country,” | says Mrs. Ralph W. Payne, president ! | of the Women's District of Columbia | | Golf Association. “Our organization is strong and well knit, and we fee] we have proven we can handle any | golf job that comes along. Washin ton hasn't staged a women's cham- ionship in nearly three decades, and we believe we deserve it.” The na- tional women’s title tourney last was played in Washington in 1908, when golf barely was ‘reaching out of the gutty ball stage and before it really became an athletic game. So you can look for a determined | bid from the feminine sector for the national title tourney. With their proved determination and their execu- tive ability the Washington women could stage any kind of golf tourna- ment as well as any other town. The course? Probably Chevy Chase, Con- gressional or Columbia. But the main point is that they want it, and what they want they usually get. Sports Mirror | By the Associated Press.
