TUESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1939 a Reds’ Front Office Prices | Lone Visi for Worlds Errors At $37,000 Each (By Ansoented Press) CINCINNATI, Oct. , 10.—The tumult and shouting died along Vine street Monday. The cap- tains and kings were gone. And the Cincinnati Reds’ front. office Put a price tag of $37,500 each n those four errors that helped the Yankees sweep the world series. The club announced _ that tickets for the fifth game of the classic (and third scheduled here) would be refunded at. cer> tain banks beginning Tuesday. On the basis of average gate receipts, they were worth around $150,000—and would have usable Monday afternoon had it net been for that amazing ninth and tenth inning-finale of Sun- day’s game in which the Yanks came from behind to win 7 to 4. Billy Myers bobbled _ twice, Ival Goodman once and big Ernie Lombardi once, the while five runs crossed the plate. “But that’s baseball for you, commented Skipper Bill Mc- Kechnie quietly. “One could spend 10 years trying to explain |of.the Cincinnati Reds entitled to what happened and still never reach the heart of it. “The way.

He mysteriously went out im the first of the sixth inning when the bombers threatened a rally. He was relieved by “Cork Arm” Molina, who walked in to calm the onslaught of the opposi- tion. Diaz still has that “un- lucky” seventh inning jinx. Wearing red uniforms, it was no more than right that Adams’ Red Devils went down to defeat as did Cincinnati at the hands of the Yanks. Score was 7-4. If Earl Adams is a bit superstitious his boys may be wearing a dif- ferent color uniform, should they | win the second-half pennant. Speaking of jinx perhaps that | is what's following the Trojans. Have you stopped to notice that the team has lost more games than it has won since bringing out the new suits? However, Ray Bush’s Pirates are doing pretty well since don- ning new uniforms and _ besides winning a good many exhibition contests the club‘is now leading the circuit for the first time since last year. Of course, there are those who say the Bucs’ luck comes from switching some of the backers to another teami. Perucho Sanchez, tor instance, is now a Trojan fan. Watch the fur fly at the Trum- bo Field next Sunday as bitter rivals, Key West Conchs and Pi- rates, battle for first place in the second game. Bucs are one full game ahead of the Conchs and a defeat will knot the two teams baseball uniform to become an easterly ,winds in a tie for first place. William “Butch” Cates, Conch second baseman, will be seen in spends quite a lot of his spare nesday, possibly a Trojan uniform next week. The husky infielder requested his something seldom done by local! release from Manager Hamlin Sunday after the Sox-Key West Conch conflict. Conchs, although suffering the loss of one of the strongest hit- ters in the league, will not be greatly weakened in the infield by the absence of Cates as the club will bring from the center garden and place him at second. The high school coach, according to reports, plays # classy infield and certainly is no weakling with the stick.

TOO, GET ‘PARROT FEVER’ IMy Associated Press) BERKELEY, Calif., Oct. 10.— “Parrot fever”, the common name of the dread human disease, psittacosis is an unfortunate choice, Says Dr. Karl F. Meyer of the University of California. He says canaries, finches, parrakeets and a bird of the petrel family | have been known to carry the“in- | fection. Adams will have a bigger head- jache next Sunday than last week | when he had more players in the dugout than he could use. Be- cause Adams wanted to. give every player a chance to be in action, his club lost against the Pirates last Sunday. The change of battery was no doubt his big slip. When Peter Castro hung up his umpire, he knew what it was all about. The half-pint ump is tak- ing things so seriously that he time studying baseball rules, umpires. While Manager Adams. points to. Jasper Walker as “my» star pitcher”, Trojan backers still con- tend that Dickey Navarro is the | best flinger of the club and we agree with you, Mr. and Mrs. Fan.
