SAN FRANCISCO September 10
One cause of worm holes" in metal

ton in machinery, has been licked by
p retired American naval officer, Comdr.
j. j. Manning.
Worm holes" are pits in alloys

with these rare earths. he said, he
obtains a plastic bronze out of lead and
copper with a grain so fine that there
are no globuleS to melt into worm holes
when the alloy is used for bearings.
Lead ordinarily melts at 700 degrees
Fahrenheit, but in Manning's alloy with
copper it stands 400 degrees before
melting.

MCCARTHY DEBATES
OFFERS TO MANAGE
Held Sure to Become Pilot
of Yankees, but Also Is
Sought by Red Sox.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
IN HILADELPHIA, October 2. -
- Whether or not Joe Mccarthy,
| deposed pilot of the Chicago
Cubs, actually has come to terms
with the New York Yankees for two
year term as manager in 1931-32, sue.
ceeding Bob Shawkey. indications today
pointed to completion Of negotiations
In short order.
After q day Of conflicting reports, It
was understood Mccarthy had re-
jected q fiattering offer to take over
the Boston Red Sox on long-term
contract In preference to accepting q
tentative proposal for the management
of the Yankees, with consequent greater
opportunity to distinguish himself in q
new field.
Mccarthy not only admitted he was
in a receptive mood to a New York
offer, having already had some pre-
liminary conversation, but revealed that
he planned to go to New York in few
days to talk definite terms with Col.
Jacob Rupert, owner of the Yankees.
ut is not always a question Of
money" Mccarthy said. II want to
go where there is the greatest oppor-
tlInity. You know, when they break
your heart, you want something to come
back with"
Reports have been published that Nc
Carthy viii sign on basis Of two years
at the Yankee helm at $25,000 q year,
but he denied any such detailed terms
had been discussed.
There is plenty Of precedent for the
shift which is expected to see the man
who led National League champion
ship club in 1929 bossing an American
League contender in 1881.
The Yankees themselves obtained
their most successful pilot, the late
Miller Higgins, after he had attracted
attention as the manager of the st.
Louis Cardinals and the discoverer of
Rogers Hornsby, now appointed to Sue
ceed Mccarthy as leader of the Cubs.
In later years, the White Sox signed
DOME Bush after he had been let go by
the Pittsburgh Pirates, although DOME
originally was an American League
sl1ortstop, with Detroit. The st. Louis
Browns also were managed this year by
an ex-National Lacquer, Bill Killefer.
The Yankees, in the process Of being
rebuilt, finished third this year under
Shawkey, something like II games be-
hind the champion Athletics. This was
considered O good showing under the
circumstances, with prospects Of i'm
provement in 1881.
For some time the idea has prevailed
that Babe Ruth eventually would be
given q chance to handle the Yankee
reins, after his present player contract
runs out. This contract, calling for the
record $4,000 salary and signed last
Spring IN training camp, has one more
year to run. The Babe Is known to
have distinct ambition to try his hand
at managing, but the replacement Of
Shawkey by Mccarthy would put on
any early prospect Of Ruth gaining his
desired opportunity.

Surprises Doing Obvious Heavy Blou Card
Crimes Dominant
Figure of Series
BY FRANK GRAHAM.

DHILADELPHIA, october 2
i (C.P.A.).-Not since Babe Ruth
was at the height of his power
and glory has q ball player domi-
mated a world series as Burleigh
Grimes dominates this one. Defeat
ed in the opening game, he lowered
above any member of the cast that
encompassed his defeat and not until
he pitches again will the series have
the flavor which it had yesterday.
He struts In the leading role Of a
big show wherein Lefty Grove, Al
Simmons, Mickey Ccchrane and
Jimmy Foxx are but supers, along
with Frank Friscfl, Chick Hafey, Jim
Bottomley and Charlie Colbert.
Grimes, the most sublimely self
confident man in base ball, fairly
radiates his belief in himself as he
stands on the mound and the aggres-
siveness in which 1t finds its express
sion arouses the multitude. The
Athletics hate him cordially and so
does the Philadelphia crowd, but
enemy players and crowd alike are
compelled against their viii to con-
cede to him q grudging admiration
and respect.
No pitcher ever toiled In worse
luck than he did, yet the finish of
the game found him as aggressive
as he had been at the beginning and
cursing savagely at his opponents.
He was like a wounded lion-and
whether you like wounded lion or
not the majestic courage Of the beast
is compelling.
