'FooIishnessY Says Miller
i. Higgins; Pilot Sees
Silver Lining.
SENATORS DANGEROUS
Plenty of PortSiderS on
Washington Club.
BY FRANK GETTY
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, April PA silver
lining to the dripping clouds which
have drenched major league dia-
monds in the East for the past few
days was observed today by that in
durable little optinist, Miller Hug
gins, manager of the New York
Yankees
The diminutive pilot of the
worlds champions is hopeful that a
weekend of rest and pinochle may
have restored to his YankS some
faith in their ability to hit southpaw
pitching.
Otherwise, Hug admits, the club
y seems about to be left-handed right
out of the first division, after get
ling away to a running start which
promised at one time to exceed last
seasons for speed and comfort.
Lose Three of Four
The Yankees dropped three Of
their last four games to southpaws.
In fact, they we're able to score just
one run in two successive games off
the offerings Of Lefty" Grove and
'Rube" Walberg, star port-siders of
. the Philadelphia Athletics, before
the rain set in.
II hope that when we get going
the boys will have all this foolish
ness about left handed pitching out
Of their systems" said Higgins.
1--WE have a lot of games with the
Washington Senators due right
away, and I don't want the boys to
get panicky every time they see a
pitcher with a glove on his right
hand climb into the box.
J, For all we know, he may have
nothing but the glove
May Forget Idea
There are at least five southpaWs
on the Senators staff who could be
called upon for action against the
Yankees if the worlds champions
continued to Shudder helpleSsly in
the face of LETT hand pitching. Hug
will have given his men a chance to
pull themselves together and forget
the nightmare of those last two
games with the Athletics.
The Yankees were not particular
ly susceptible to southpaw hurting
last year. But then, they weren't
susceptible to any kind Of pitching
Grove and Walberg each beat them
three times, and so did Hal Wiltse Of
the Boston Red SoX, another port
slider.
The only other left handlers to
win more than one game from the
worlds champions in 1927 we're Eayl
Whitehill of Detroit, who won two
and lost three against New York
and J. Walter Miller of Cleveland
whose records against the Yankees
was two won one lost.

Plane Lands by Parachute

TRACY, Cal, May ga small
biplane has been landed safely from
1000 feet by means of a huge para
chute, without injury to its pilot or
damage to the plane.
The experiment, performed pri-
vately here. was designed to prove
the possibility of using parachute
for disabled planes to insure safety
of passengers.
A Jenny biplane. piloted by E. j.
McKeon, was used in the test
The plane dropped about 1000
feet, with its motor idle, when the
huge parachute, more than 100 feet
in diameter, opened out.
McKeon stayed with the ship as
its speed rapidly slackened. He said
he felt only a slight jar when the
plane landed and the folds Of the
parachute enveloped him.
The biplane was not damaged, ex-
cept for minor bend in the tail
skid.
The parachute is the invention Of
Charles Roderick, San Francisco,
who, with numerous other airmen,
expressed complete satisfaction over
