Minneapolis, Oct. 1O.-N)-Stan-

Several tricky Stanford plays. ex-
ecuted by the freshmen, e stopped
before they started but Coach Crisler
and his assistants realized the fresh
men were far from the perfection In
execution the western team probably
has attained.
Riebeth probably won't play as

normally would because of his recent
illness. Jake Ohlsen, end, left scrim-
mage yesterday with a twisted knee
and may be out. MacDougal's weight
handicap may keep him out Of the

Joe Cronin Is Voted Americans Best
Sensational Young Senator
Shortstop Tops Simmons,
Gehrig, and Others

New York, Oct. 10.-H)-JOe CrOn-
in, sensational young shortstop of the
Washington Senators, today was pro-
claimed the American leagues most
valuable player" for 1890 by a special
committee of members of the Base
ball Writer'S Association of America.
The writer's, representing each
American league city, cast their votes
at the request of the Associated Press
for the second successive year since
the league abandoned its custom OF
making an official selection.
Cronin, although playing only his
second year as a major league regu-
lar, merited sufficient votes to beat
out AL Simmons of the Athletics, the
league batting champion, and Lou
Gehrig, smuggling first baseman OF
the Yankees, in a close contest. Cron-
in, selected as Washingtons most
valuable performer by every n OF
the eight experts, led with a total OF
4S points out of a possible maximum
of "a.
Simmons and Gehrig were tied for
second place with 80 points each.
Charley Gehringel, Detroit's second
baseman, was fourth with &c, Ted
Lyons of the White Sox, fifth with 26,
and Wesley Terrell, Cleveland's SEN
sational young pitcher, sixth with Is
points.
Simmons was the choice of most of
the experts for first ranking, being
put at the top of the list by four OF
the eight critics, but his chances OF
winning the honor we're reduced by
the nomination of Lefty Grove and
Mickey Cochrane by other experts as
the representatives of the worlds
champions.
Cronin, on the other hand, was
given top ranking by n writer but
he was second on four other lists and
placed once each at fourth, fifth, and
sixth. The points were figured on a
basis of eight for first place, seven for
second, etc., as was done when the
American league conducted the Off
cial contest.
The Washington shortstop's selec-
ton by the writer's comes as some
thing of a birthday gift. He will be

! in San Francisco, Cronin received his
first major league trial with Pitts

| Pirates in a utility role in 1926 be-
fore being released to Kansas City.
| He was sold to Washington in 1928
| and became a regular in 1929.

He scored 127 runs, collected 203 hits,

She voiced no complaint on the trip ncrthward in the elephants pri- vate car and tripped down the un- loading runway without mentioning an ailnent.
 She walked to the Bronx Coli scum with unfaltering step, but at the doorway paused a moment, then crumpled to the floor lifeless. Her heart had failed at the thought of entering the building where her old pal and fellow trouper, Albert, beloved by the kids of America in the old Adams Forepaugh circus for more than forty years, breathed his last year ago
 For four decades Queen and AL bert played the country in a trained elephant act. Always side by side they walked when the elephants were paired off for work and for exercise. A real Paul and Virginia attachment sprang up between the two. They were not mates, but trouping pals.
 When Albert suddenly fell sick and died here last year, Queen was inconsolable. Finally her trainers chained Yasso. a handsome young elephant, beside her and she seem ed to give up grievihg.
 But the heart Of old Queen, now eighty, was not up to returning to the scene of Albert's death. Separ- ated from him a year ago, Queen will now be buried beside him, her mahouts pro mise.
