Judges Recommendation Almost
Cost Him His Job

Many aspiring first basemen have
tried to force Joe Judge to throw
away his old glove but none of
them have succeeded. However, Joe
nearly recommended himself out of
job once. Only the failure of
Clark Griffith to take judges rec
Ommendation seriously probably has
kept Joe on the job so long for Lou
Gerhig was the player he told Grif
fifth he ought to sign.
Il heard about a big, strong kid
up at Columbia when l was living in
the Bronx with my folks" Joe re-
lates, explaining how the New York
Yankees first baseman nearly be-
came a Senator. 81 did everything
but get down ON my knees and beg
Griffith to let me scout him.
More to get rid of Joe than for
any other reason Griffith promised
Joe that he would put regular
Washington scout ON Gehrig's trail
and Billy Smith was assigned to the
job. Smith never did catch up with
Lou and Judge is now realizing that
it is lucky for him that Smith never
did When asked about the affair re-
Gently, Judge said, "I'm not crying
but that was a narrow escape l had.
Imagine where l would be with that
big bird socking the ball all around
the lot for the Senators. 1t makes
me yshiver to think of it." 4
The Crystal FOunt baseball team

Nearly 4 Third OF Players In

American League Are College Men
Showing the modern trend in ma
jor league baseball, a recent survey
made by Henry P. Edwards. director
of the American League Service Bu-
reau, reveals that nearly a third of
the players in that circuit are col
lege men. Fifty-nine of the regulars
retained by the eight clubs after
getting down to the % player limit
are collegians and 2S are fraternity
men. About fifty other college men
are out on option.
Although Bucky Harris never
reached college his Detroit Tigers,
along with the Chicago White SoX
are carrying the greatest number of
college bred players, each having IL
of them on their roster. which is
more than any other club boasts.
The New York Yankees and the

DOTS AND DASHES
ABOUT SPORTS

There hasn't been as much excite
ment as the past two weeks has
contained for the citizens of the
Quaker City since the boys of '76
cracked the Liberty Bell. The Phil
lies have been running wild and
Connie Mack of the Athletics has
been trying to put over some last
minute trades using Earnshaw, Wal
berg and Simmons as bait to St.
Louis and Cleveland.
The Phillies have made the about
face that they promised when they
would get back on their own happy
hunting grounds. They wound up
one of their best weeks of the sea-
son on June IS with the neat and
difficult feat of giving the st. Louis
Cardinals a double somersault.
One pitcher was largely respon-
sible for the squirt the Phils put on
Flint Rhem. Since joining the
Phillies Rhem has started two
games and done relief in a third for
a winning percentage of 1000.
However, the citizens of the City
of BrOtherly Love found much more
excitement and a greater strain on
their emotions in the news that
Cannie Mack made a valiant effort
to land Wes Farrell and Mel Harder
of the Cleveland Indians, and failing
in this, sought George Blaeholder
and Goose Goslin of the st. Louis
Browns.
A lot of the trade gossip was not
verified by the tall gentleman who
guides the destiny of the Mackman.
For instance he would not admit
that Al Simmons had been placed
on the block. Connie was frank to
say, however, that he had offered
both Earnshaw and Walberg in a
trade or two.
The legion of Mackians were jolt
ed but pleased by the attempt to get
the Athletics back on their stride
with a few radical changes. They
feel trade or two will have a salu-
tatOry effect on the club and went
on record as favoring a few changes
in the personnel that has now be-
come so familiar.

Stand All Night to Shake
Presidents Hand, Then
Invited to Eat.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. -Four
young men ate bacon and eggs in
the White House yesterday, evil
dence that the impromptu Christ
mas breakfast for New Year early
arrivals may become presidential
tradition.
Last year two stood outside in
bitter cold for twelve hours, wait
ing to shake the Presidents hand
at the annual reception. This year,
perhaps inspired by the reflected
glory in which the 1881 heroes
basked, twice the number showed up.
Only two were on hand at the
a. m. deadline, but two others
joined them as the night wore on.
All were invited to breakfast and
met Hoover in advance of the re-
ception.
Still Holds Record
For that reason j. w. Hunefeld,
a house painter, claimed his record
of being first in line at the public
reception still was unbroken.
Hunefeld Scornd the inveitation
to meet the President privately
and turned down the breakfast,
saying he didn't drink coffee. This,
he later admitted, was to keep his
place at the head of the line, a
place he had held in 1926, 1928,
1880 and 1881.
Hunefeld made one slight niscal-
culation, however, which gave the
early crowd a laugh. When White
House employee arrived at 7:30,
Hunefeld called to him:
mo use going in there. The copsll
throw you out and you'll have to
stand behind me, anyhow"
Meet 3,1O2 Persons
The President and Mrs. Hoover
shook hands with 3,102 persons, in
Guiding about twenty-five members
Of congress, the cabinet and other
government officers and members of
the diplomatic corps.
More than one thousand of the
total visitors were officials of one
sort or another, leaving less than
two thousand private citizens. Last
year there were nearly six thousand
in line. Wretched weather, cold
and rainy, was blamed for the pau
city of the outturn. The public re-
ception lasted only an hour.
The four irnmortals were William
L. Wilson, Otto CATER, Martin j.
Bredvold, government clerks, and
H. Walter Barrows, IA.

Gulf Stream Takes Inside of Loop,
Russia, North Europe, Suffer.
By United Press
PARIS, Jan. 2.-Thermometers
dropped into the Atlantic ocean
have led French photographers to
conclude this will be mild winter
along the Atlantic seaboard of
America, France and Britain.
1t will be a severe winter, they
say, for Russia and the Scandinav-
ian states.
This winter will resemble that of
1928 with a few cold days and the
remainder warm and dry. The
Polar seas will be colder than at
any time since 1924 and ice will be
thick until May.
These predictions are based on
The swing of the gulf stream cur
rent again taking the inside of the
loop.
Russia will suffer most for the gulf
stream instead of circling into the
Polar seas and to the north of Nor
way as it did least year, does not
get beyond Iceland.
If the gulf stream failed, France
would become uninhabitable in
winter.
