STAR PITCH
FROM HENCE

There was a gay celebration at the
White Sox baseball park in Chicago
yesterday when throng of Hammond
Robertsdale, Chicago and South Chi
cago friends of Walter Leverenz, star
pitcher OF the ST. Louis Browns, came
armed with banners. fish horns, footed
and rooted True to his promise. Man
ager Branch Hickey of the Browns
sent Leverenz to the slab, and the
former Hammond man did his prettiest
to Justify the large doings, and came
close to succeeding.
In nine innings he held the White
Sox to three safe hits and a couple of
bases on balls. He probably would
have pitched a drawn battle but for a
hole In his support. a high throw by
Catcher Agnew tossing the game away
in the tenth inning
In the third inning Leverenz made
his first appearance at bat. 1t was
then that his friends from the entire
region rushed from the grandstand and
pitcher was handed handsome dia-
lore amidst loud shouting. He then
showed himself to be a grateful man
by sending a line single to left.
Walter probably never listened to as
much roofing for himself in a hostile
town like Hammond. South Chicago
and Robertsda1e fans gave him yes
terday, and after the doings the
throng departed. thoroughly convinced
that Leverenz Is some pitching phe-
nom.

ardent baseball fan, and somewhat of
an authority on statistics of the game.
In starting out last June. he took a
complete baseball outfit with him to
Introduce the game in his homo town
near Amsterdam. His mother finally
took everything away from him fearing
that he and his crazy American game
would put the whole village ION the

too unwieldy. the balls too small and
too hard. and did not know whether to
portect the north or the south side Of
the body with the breat protector. He
