DEFEATS SHOW
CONNIE MACK'S
TEAM WOBBLINC
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent. .

NEW YORK, July 8. W.P)-Tbe
going is getting rougher for the
Philadelphia Athletics.
Two straight defeats at the hand
of the Chicago White Sox haven It
put much of dent in the Ath.
letics' long lead but they may be
forerunners of a disastrous western
trip for the American League lead
erS.
Shifts in the Athletics lineup
the past two days indicate that
Connie Mack is getting nervous
even behind an game lead.
Jimmy Dykes, who has been play
ing second base while Max Bishop
was giving his sore eyes rest, was
shifted to shortstop yesterday and
Bishop sent back to his post. Jimmy
Cronin, young shortstop, was. taken
out of the lineup to make room for
Dykes.
George Burns. the veteran first
baseman released by the Yankees
and picked up free agent by the
Athletics, has been getting into the
lineup as substitute for young
Jimmy Foxx, who may be whiting
n bit under the strain of leading
the American League hitters.
The White SoX beat two of Con-
ME Mack's best pitchers, Walberg
and Earnshaw, the latter lasting
less than an inning yesterday
Since the AS longest losing streak
of the season is two games Connie
Mack probably will shoot his ace,
Lefty Grove, at the White Sox to-
day. If Grove should lose, the cry:
"Slump!'' will ring around the
American League circuit tonight
and the Yanks. Browns and Tigers
will put on extra speed in the pur-
suit of the league leaders.

GERMAN BARON
And TINY SNIP
VISIT VALLEY

Probably few FL Centrans noted
tiny airplane winging its way
eastward across the city at s O'Clock
this morning, and even fewer
realized that it contained mighty
nice German youth and his Persian
cat, bound for the distant Father
land.
The nice German youth is Baron
koenig Warthausen, who arrived at
Imperial airport last night at 9
o clock from San Diego, in the
course of flight around the world.
Tonight, if all goes well, the
baron will sleep at Tucson, thence
proceed to FL Paso, St. Louis and
New York, from where he will take
q ship to Europe and continue across
the continent to Berlin.
The baron is unique and his
plane is even more so. 1t is a tiny
monoplane built originally as a
glider. Into it the baron put ~
horse power two cylinder engine
which gives him a maximum speed
of 60 miles an hour. A load of gas,
consisting of II gallons, will take
him close to 500 miles, he said at
the airport this morning. The plane
can get off at the slow speed of Is
miles an hour and lands at 10
mile speed.
Plenty of fresh air is assured the
baron is the course of his trip. He
drives in open cockpit, minus
goggles, helmet and parachute and
wearing ordinary street clothes. a
special compartment is built for his
black eat, though ordinarily 1T sits
in his lap as he journeys along.
The baron told the Press reporter
the name of the cat, but the latter
forgot to put it down - anyhow
it is German name. Adopting
Colonel Lindbergh' S style, the baron
uses the word "we,' in discussing
his trip but explained the we
means himself and the eat
Baron Warthausen is a clean
wholesome looking blond, tall and
slender, with very friendly dis
position. He speaks good English
with a pronounced accent and uses
an interrogative "no, = freely at the
end of sentences. He is 23 year;

SPORT NEWS
BOBBY HERMAN
EXPECTED TO
BEAT ARREC0N

Boxing fans of the valley who
would like to see frankie Arregon
take licking for once viii prob
ably see that very thing FRIDAY
night when they attend the regular
weekly boxing show at the open air
arena here.
That is the opinion of Harry
Woodbury., local matchmaker, who
has signed Bobby Herman to meet
the valley favorite in the 10 round
main event this week.
Herman gave Arregon a tough
argument in Hollywood recently and
copped the decision. The Texan will
come here fresh from knocking over
Marcelino LomeT considered one
Of the real featherweight corners
on the coast. Bobby kayoed Lomcii
in Los Angeles last week.
lncidently the Texas Mexican is
managed by Windy Windsor,
perennial handler of prospective
heavyweight champions, all Of
whom have failed to make good with
the exception of Jack Dempsey.
Windsor had the contract on
Dempsey when the former heavy
weight title holder was getting
started in and around San Francisco
years ago. The windy one would try
to tell Dempsey how to fight and
Jack would do about what he
pleased.
The story goes that one night af-
ter a four round setto that Demp-
sey lost Windsor was trying to show
the future champ what he failed to
do.
So intent was Windsor in ex-
planning that he smaeked Dempsey
on the chin. That was the end of
the contract between the pair,
Windsor walking out on the
voungster and a future cut on sew
eral millions of dollars in purses.
Jack Kearns picked Dempsey up
from Windsor.
The fact that Windy lost
that decision, as it were, does not
stamp the manager as dumb. In
fact Windsor is considered one of
the smartest in the game aud
handles only fighters that show
enough to make them possible
champions.
Herman has been under Windy s
wing for somewhat over a year and
IN that time has dropped but few
decisions. He defeated Arregon
once and is confident he can do SO
again.
Woodbury. has not announced the
balance of the card but stated this
morning he was figuring on some
topnotch matches. The usual six
round semi-windup and two four
stanza affairs will be staged.

Only Two Games
In Night Loop

Only two games will be played
this week in the I'll Centre Night
City league owing to the withdraw
al of the Outlaws, the sixth and
cellar club of the loop, it was an
noUnced this morning by officials.
There will be no game tonight
and it is possible the Studebaker
club, scheduled to meet the Out
laws, win be temporarily, at least,
awarded the game on forfeit.
Tomorrow night Mack and Mack
the league leaders will meet the
fast and coming Maggie outfit. 4
great deal Of rivalry exists between
these two clubs and while the lat
ter has been defeated twice by the
former, the Fat Boys claim it won t
happen again.
Lingo-Kiwanis and the Telephone
club play Wednesday night.
This week will be the twelfth OF
the - week season. Mack and
Mack is in the lead winning 10 and
losing one. The baberdashers are
followed closely by the Studeballer
outfit which has won eight and lost
three.
Next comes the Lingo -Kiwanis
with six and four with a postponed
game to play with Maggie. That
club is next with five and five.
Telephone brings up the rear with
two wins and nine losses. The Out
laws, who have dropped out of the
loop, won only one Of their IL
starts.
