Pitching of Yankees Goes
Sour and Infielders Are
Sent Hence

Here's a queer quirk OF the ma
tional pastime The veteran in
fielders of the Yankees have been
thrown off the diamond because
the pitching went sour. 1t doesn't
sound reasonable, but it's as right
as rain: With fine pitching day
after day. the infield, which was
composed of Dugan. Scott, Ward
and Pipp, swept on to a world s
championship in 1928.
With fair pitching, this same
jnfield ran the Griffmen ragged last
year and finished close second.
With weak pitching this year. the
veteran infielders were sacrificed
for added batting power to offset
the wavering work of the mounds
men. Scott went to Washington
and Ward and Pipp to the bench,
not because they could not field,
but because the pitchers couldn t
pitch.
Bigger and buster bats were need
ed to keep pace with tho larger
scores Of opposing teams as Yam
kee pitchers were harried from
the mounds Thus Wanninger took
the place Of Scott: Ward gave way
to Shanks. and old reliable Wally
Pipp stepped down for Buster Gen.
rig. It's an odd angle. but base
ball is queer game and this is
a funny old world.

NEW YORK. July Il Recent

of the policiess>of the sensible ele-
ment in that organization,
A clique apparently has the
upper hand which is determined as
few championships as possible shall
be held in the vacation ,period, the
only time that a vast majority OF
the membership can gain leave OF
absence SO as to compete.
Such policy recalls the deter
mination Of many high handicap
delegates at State and sectional
meetings to hold those champion
ships at congested dates when
other events would attract many
of the strongest players. How did

time attempting to compile an
eligibility list with State cham

title struggles attracted anything
but a representative field.
Invariably when the newspapers
are Overlooking with golf contests
of prime Importance, along comes
the public park contingent with
a. side show that has to be crowded
into a paragraph or two. Yet the
only other way the New York
municipal body has to reach its
memberslSe, now that the annual
dues have been cut to twenty-five
cents a year is through the me-,
dunn OF the bulletin boards at the
courses, and the park officials

been strained) may see fit to with
