C--2 National Duckpin Leaders Gather at TSectional Scrap‘ Seen | From the Press Box Can’t Believe Managers, Baseball Expert Finds By JOHN LARDNER, Bpecial Correspondent of The Star, NEW YORK, April 26—You can’t trust a baseball manager as far as you can throw Jimmy Foxx. ‘Take the case of Joe Cronin of the Boston Red Sox, an inscrutable, devious sort of fellow who has been boasting about a rookie pitcher named Hash and saying nothing whatever about & rookie pitcher named Harris. Harris, Mickey Harris, is a left- hander whom I mentioned last month as looking very good (said Lardner modestly). Igaw him pitch four or five innings in an early March game against Brooklyn. He had good speed and much more coolness and poise than you'd ex- pect in a green youth of 21, 'fresh up from Scranton. However, your scout was tempted to disbelieve the evidence of his eyes when Mr. Cronin, discussing the ball club, carefully talked all around Harris. “Harris has got it,” sail Mr. Cronin. “He'll be & winner. But- land looks good. Rich's arm seems to be .okay again. Watch Baghy. Keep your eye on Ghlehouse. Oster- mueller may be all right. Don't overlook—" “You have a young left-hander,” began your agent timidly. Grove Young in Age Compared With Mack “Ah, yes,” said Mr. Cronin, smil- | ing broadly. “You refer to Mose Grove. And you do well to call him young. Young in spirit, young in outlook, voung in age, too, if you compare him with Connie Mack or Judge Landis. Ah, yes, indeed,” said Mr. Cronin expansively, as he strolled away, “my young left-hand- | er, Mose Grove, is one of Nature’s | noblemen. I'm glad you mentioned | him.” This sort of patter confused me no little. Did Harris have some gruesome secret? Was he wanted by the police of Elkhart, Ind? Mr, Cronin seemed bent on covering him up, with whiskers if necessary, and all you heard around the camp, on the subject of rookie pitchers, was Hash, Hash, Hash. Now, Herbie Hash is by no means & bad young pitcher. His record last year in the American Associa- tion, a double-A league, speaks for {tself. But he looked to me to be a year or so away from complete suc- cess in the big time this spring, and | when the hour came to make out my list of rookies-of-the-year, the boys with the best chance of making the | grade in 1940, I leaned to young Harris rather than Hash, Nats All but Helpless Against Rook Lefty But Cronin’s attitude on the sub- | Ject seemed sinister. The way Joe behaved, Harris probably would be back in the minors before the sea- son opened. And there is no sense in picking a man for rookie-of-the- year if he is going to spend his year in the bushes. 8o I wrote down the name of Hash and relapsed into deep and mournful contemplation. T was aroused from the same with 8 jolt this week, when I noticed in the papers that one Mickey Harris, | of southpaw persuasion, had started | for Boston against Washington, had gone the route, and had blanked the Nationals for the first six in- nings—yielding two runs late in the game when his team had given him & lead of 7 to 0. Furthermore, this boisterous rookie | had fanned eight men, which seemsE to hint at a certain amount of | speed. He had walked only one, | which seems to indicate poise and | coolness. I guess it is the very| same Harris I had in mind, though why Mr. Cronin should wait til| how to rip off his whiskers is more | than I can say. Harris Pitching Gravy For Red Sox Outfit I don’t want to go on record as calling this youth a star.* There may well be better young pitchers around. But Harris is a pretty good pitcher already, and doubtless will get better, which is very im- portant to the Boston campaign. | With good pitching, Boston can | win the pennant. Without it, the| Sox are sunk. Thus, if they were not banking on any wins from Harris, the boy is gravy, all gravy. But I have an idea that Mr. Cronin was banking on him just a bit. Jo- seph is more devicus than his open Irish pan would lead you to believe. Up to date, Boston pitching re- sults are not bad. Grove appears to be the same old Grove, good for at least 13 victories. Bagby’s work is encouraging. Dickman looked pretty fair in one start, and Wil- son’s trouble is mostly wildness. Harris, as I say, is pure velvet. If Rich, Galehouse, and Hash can match these performances, then Mr. Cronin ought to be able to select himself a rotation of four reasonably effective starting pitchers from the list, with Grove working once a week and some of the others pitch- ing in spots. There is a log of pine wood handy, and I am going to knock it three times. I don't want to spoil the year for young Harris—mysterious Mickey, as we call him at the lodge. | Weinberg, star of the Hebrew and | 394 in. doubles gave him a nymg" ]the movie operators who outrolled | Class E with 1,584, \Dropkicks Miss Goal SPORTS. Three Mentioned For Duckpin Job By the Associated Press. NEW HAVEN, Conn. April 26—A. A. Hosselton of Rich- mond, Va.; Arville Ebersole of Washington, D. C., and Ed Feus- tel of New Haven were mentioned today as possibilities for the post of executive secretary of the National Duckpin Bowling Con- gress. ‘The election of officers tonight, generally a minor event, took on & major aspect in view of the death last week of George L. Isemann of Washington. The post paid a salary of $5,200 last year. The American Legion All- Stars of New Britain furnished the only fireworks in last night's championships, rolling a 1,913 to grab fourth place in the men’s open team division. New Leaders Loom As Strong Squads Roll at Arcadia Brookland Leagues Head City Tourney Lineup; Bill Krauss Second With bowlers of the strong Brook- land Merchants and Building Sup- ply leagues bidding for champion- ships & new crop of teams, doubles and singles leaders looms tonight in the Washington City Duckpin Asso- ciation tournament at the Arcadia.

Roosevelt moviemen are third in As Murphy Yields To Irish Angel Victory Scored After Customers Toss Tough ' Matman Back to Ring On the strength of a near-ca- pacity turnout last night, Promoter | Joe Turner had reason to feel en- couraged today over his new affili- ation with the Pfefer troupe of wrestlers who began operations at the Arena last night in crowd- pleasing style. Several times tossed to the cus- ! tomers in the first two rows, the Irish Angel returned to defeat Dropkick Murphy in the feature bout, employing an airplane spin for the clincher. The feature bout lasted 30 minutes, with the spec- tators thoroughly enjoying the dra- matics put on by each. Murphy tied the Angel in a knot and booted his chin for two drop- kicks, but on the third, the Angel swung a right on Dropkick’s chin. spun him over his head and pinned him for the count. It took Zim Zam Zum only 81 minutes to finish Otto Wallick, who protested Z. Z. Z. had strangled him in the semifinal, while Carol Zbyszko went 24 minutes to beat Vanka Zelesniak and Maurice Boyer and Benny Rosen defeated John Melas and Juan Olaguival, respectively. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, APRIL 26, 1940. With Washington in Storm Center Ebersole Among Leading Candidates; New Setup For Congress Planned A plan hatched by the fertile mind of George L. Isemann prom- ises to be the main topic of discus- sion tonight at New Haven, Conn,, when a successor to the late execu- tive-secretary of the National Duck- pin Bowling Congress is named at t‘{xe annual meeting of the organiza- on. For some years, Issmann, who died 8 week ago last Wednesday while conducting the 13th annual tour- nament at New Haven, the biggest in the congress’ history, realized the necessity of several assistant or re- gional secretaries. But lack of funds kept him from appointing assistants except in the territory where the national tournament was held. A} times there wasn't enough money in the congress’ treasury to pay even his salary, but although George weathered the lean days somehow he didn’t expect others to £0 unpaid, particularly if they were key men. So for 13 years, i1l or well, he traveled the duckpin territory on business much of which an assist- ant could have handled. Take Up Isemann’s Plans, His final trip was a fatal one. His sudden death rocked the bowling world. The things he sought now are of major importance to every duckpin alley owner, manager and bowler, Unless there is a hitch, particu- larly in the plans of the operators, the Executive Committee, which votes generally as instructed by the operators who pay the running ex- penses of the congress, a general secretary with two or three assist- ants will be elected. The plan, it is understood, calls for the appointment of a secretary for the New England territory, cne for the Central Atlantic section and one for the South with probable headquarters at Atlanta. One of the three will act as general sec- retary. The extreme South is in dire need of a national official to carry on the groundwork started by Isemann. Duckpins, on the boom in Florida for several years, now are being re- placed by tenpins. So tonight instead of the invasion | of hundreds of Southern bowlers| being of major interest, the election of a man to fill the important post of general secretary has caused those most vitally affected—the alley operators—to be at the scene of the meeting in unprecedented force. Baltimore which long has wanted the office of the secretary, is ex- pected to put up a stiff fight to elect & man from the Monumental City. Washington, where home offices always had been maintained by Isemann, also is anxious to have the secretaryship. With Ed Feusel of New Haven doing a swell job of running the present tournament, the duckpin bosses of Connecticut ap- pear to have an edge in the selee- tion of general secretary, but strong- ly backed will be Arville Ebersole, secretary of the Washington City Duckpin Association. Rosslyns to Bowl Tomorrow. Among Washington’s contingent of bowlers expected to make strong bids for the various championships tomorrow will be the champion Rosslyn team of the District League, headed by Astor Clarke; Chevy Chase, captained by Jack Talbert; Convention Hall, led by Julius Sing- er; Lucky Strike, with Jimmie Moore at the helm: Brookland Recreation | Mount | and Russell Rainier. Washington’s only defending champion, Mabelle Hering, the na- tional woman’s singles titleholder, will roll with Arcade-Pontiac, while other Ladies’ District League teams will include the champion Rosslyn quint, the runner-up Chevy Chase combination, Lucky Strike, twice winner of the team event; Red Circle Food Shop and Arcadia. Bronson Quaites, president of the congress, will captain a picked Convention Hall girls’ team. Seven Classes Listed In Colonial Horse Show Tomorrow George Washington U. will hold its annual horse show at Ray’s Meadow on the East-West Highway tomorrow starting at 2 pm. Seven classes are scheduled—stu- dent jumping, open hunters, open Jjumpers, hunter hack, pair hack, G. W. horsemanship, fraternity and so- rority hack (any school). Prizes and ribbons will be award- ed in each class. A championship will be given to the high point win- ner of the open classes. Maj. Henry Leonard will judge.

Motors of Bimelech’s Visitors Must Check Stop Watches By EDDIE BRIETZ, Associated Press Sports Writer. NEW YORK, April 26—Re- porters going to Col. E. R.

An exhibi- tion golf match among Babe Ruth, Gene Sarazen, Jimmy De- maret and Gene Tunney is being lined up for Norwalk, Conn., May 12. Dead ringers: Max Baer and Phil Harris, leader of the Jack Benny Band—clothes and all. In that cigarette ad show- ing George Washington Case slid- ing into second base, the umpire is Frankie Baxter, the Nationals’ clubhouse boy.

Mumps has all but floored the Michigan State baseball team what with Paul Starck, crack outfielder, and Norman Duncan, the leading batter, on the side- lines with swollen chops. Ring- side pews for Baer and Galento will cost 12 yams—and ought to be worth it. ‘Today’s guest star: Daniel F. Mulvey, New Haven Evening Register: “Not even ‘the Angel’ can rescue wrestling here. The game has gone plumb to the devil.” Maybe he's talking out of school, but Trainer Jack Black- burn told the Terre Haute Star that Joe Louis’ next two fights will be with Arturo Godoy and the Baer-Galento winner. Also, Blackburn sald, Jos is ready to ¢ call it quits the minute his han- dlers will let him.
