LYERS SENT TO CHATTANOOGA CLUB
PERFORMERS
60 TOENGEL.
NOPT|ON

Six players were cut adrift from
the Washington baseball club to-
day by Uncle Clark Griffith,
owner and president.
They include Harley Boss, first
baseman: Alvin Powell. outfielder:
Cecil Travis, third baseman; Bill
Mcleod, Shortstop; Walter Mas.
ters, pitcher, and Gordon Phelps,
catcher.
All six will report to the Chat
tanooga Club, CT the Southern
Association, this spring, according
to Griff. Each man goes to the
Engel club on option.
Masters Most Capable
Of the group Masters is
thought the most capable player.
The University of Pennsylvania
recruit, who was signed last June,
pitched some nice ball on occa'
sions directed his way during
1881, while his hurting at YoungS-
town, where he spent most of his
time, was easy to talk about.
Phelps was recalled from
YOUNGSTOWN at the end of the
season in 1881. He is the giant
catcher taken from local sand.
lots about three years ago.
Travis, one of the infielders in
the group, was purchased from
Chattanooga last fall, just after
he had participated in 18 games
to run up a batting average of
.429. Mcleod was recalled from
York of the New York-PennSyl-
vania League.
Boss Batted 1906
Powell played with Bingham.
ton last year, batting .319 in Sc
games. Boss was with Chatta.
nooga throughout 1881, batting
.306 in Isl contests.
This bit Of house cleaning,
such as it is, may be taken any
of two ways, the way this de-
partment figures it. It may mean
that Griff and johnson are max
ing room for new players to 5e
added by trade or purchase later,
or it may mean that they are
ready and willing to stand pat on
their present roster with the six
gone just case of smoothing off
the rough edges IN a team bulky
with unneeded material.

Eastern's victory over Emerson
marked the seventh straight for
that team for the season. Led
by Bernie Lieb, lanky center,
who scored nine points, and Kane
and Zola, guards, who totaled eight
and seven points, respectively, it
was just a breeze for the Guyon-

lister only eight points per half,
Braddock and Whelan being their
scoring stars.
Tech was given a real battle
by st. Johns before finally win
ming. In fact, baskets by Gre

last three minutes of play turned
the tide for the Manual Trainers.
st. Johns led, "a to %, just be-

Casey's Explanation

> 'SThe boys were stock market
crazy" tells Casey" ut was
the boom year, and all the boys
were too busy getting rich to
nay any attention to baseball.
They talked stocks and bank
statements to the exclusion of
all else, on the bench, in the
field, and in the clubhouse.
They'd lose a tough one, and
all I'd hear in the clubhouse
was how many points COnsOli-
dated Bridge had gained that
day.
''FinalIy, I could stand it no
longer. 1 got a tip for you
boys, 1 told 'em-and you can
lust picture the burned up
Casey bearing on them with
his sarcasm.
"FOr the first time that year" /"
says Casey" "they listened to
what / had to say.
"'What's the tip a whole
group of them inquired.
pennsylvania RailrOa d. :"
''CaSey" told them.
"'WhO told yOu% they wanted
to know. What's the dOpe?'
"NObOdy gave me the tip"
reDlied Casey" "but 1 know
this much. There's a Pennsyl.
yania train that leaves Toledo
at midnight and about 20 of
you guys will be on it. And
you're going SO far that by the
time the trip is over the rail-
road should certainly be able to
declare an extra dividend"

With the Grltfmen, it's no eX-
ception. Last year for instance,
there was the Hadley-West COM
the Marberry-Myer duo.
the BroWn-FiScher pair, the
Hayes team, and of course
the Altrock and Schacht pair.
Wherever you went you most
always bumped into these fellows.
And of course they were together.
That is, with the exception of Al
trock and Schacht, who most of
the time were filling vaudeville
engagements apart from each
other
The sets of Hadley and West,
and Marberry and Myer, particu-
larly were subject to much kid
ding during 1881. And the funny
part was that neither team" was
conscious of the others title.
This led to plenty of kidding
back and forth between the two
pairs whenever the opportunity
arose. II,
Incident On Train
One night on one of the trips,
all of the players were in the
dining car putting it away" be-
fore the nightly card game prior
to calling it a day. Myer and
Marberry were at one table and
West and Hadley, inseparable as
ever, were at another.
Myer and Marberry unaware
that they we're classed as twins"
by their teammates, began pan
ming West and Hadley.
"See that Bump gets enough
to eat tonight, Sammy" Mar
berry drawled.
Eyes, and Bump, don't allow
Sammy to take that last biscuit
on the plate" added Myer.
Break it in half and share it
with your pal"
Both Myer and Marberry looked
around for the laughs they ex-
pected they would get by their

That 1923 World Series

Stengel will ever be a sort
of a personal hero of ours for
the simple reason that he
starred in the first world series
we ever saw, the Yankee-Giant
set, back in 1923 when this
newspaper first took Babe Ruth
All-America team winners to
the annual fall baseball master
piece.
Even then they we're refer
ring to Stengel as "Old Casey" )"
and he was just about able to
Stagger around the bases on
the occasion of that home run
he made within the park. That
winter the Giants traded him
to the Braves along with Dave
Bancroft, and the incident
struck us as being an act of
ingratitude in view of the man
ner in which Casey starred
during the preceding series and
regular playing seasons of 1922
and 1923. Since then, of course,
we have learned baseball, like
other industries, appears to be
pretty heartless at times. How
ever, we were pretty indignant
at the time because "our hero"
had been shunted off to the
lowly Braves.
The Washington times., 1932-01-06
President and Pilot

BY 1925 Stengel had actually
slowed down to crawl, and
Boston sent him to Providence
to be president and manager
of the Braves farm there, but
not before, in 1924, he actually
helping McGraw and the Giants
to another pennant by beating
the Robins out of game
which was vital to the Flat
bush flag aspirations.
Stengel wearied of Providence
and as president of the club,
fired himself as manager, and
then resigned as president. He
turned up with Toledo where
he spent six years with that
club which is now in the hands
of the receivers.
At the recent minor league
meeting in West Baden, Ind,
Stengel told of his trials and
tribulations at Toledo.
81 managed three teams at
TOledO-One on the field, one
going, and one coming"
He tells one story about his
1928 club that's a corker. The
team had won the pennant the
year before, but, in 1928. the
same players were very strong
last. Only Casey could explain

PAIR FACE
ORIOLES

A glittering caro- Is being ar
ranged for the opening of the
John Blick's bowling stadium at
Convention Hall on Saturday
afternoon, January 16.
Red Megaw and Ollie Pacini,
Temple wizards, who reign SUI
preme among local doubles, will
meet Ray Barnes teamed with
either Ray Won Dreele or George
Lang, Baltimore top-notchers, in
the feature doubles, and Pacini
will battle one of the Baltimor-
cans in the feature singles.
Reva Banks, rising young girl
star, will roll against Eva Guide,
another young lady who broke
into the bowling circles last year
in a three-game singles prelimi-
nary.
All Outstanding
All three of the Baltimoreans
mentioned are outstanding at the
moment. Barnes just added the
U. S. Sweepstakes title to his
many laurels.
Ray Won Dreele, the colorful
Flying Dutchman, is smashing out
fancy scores on his every ap-
pearance, and George Lang fin
ished just one pin behind Pacini
to take third money in the U. S.
Sweepstakes.
Pacini already holds a de-
cision in a head-to-head match
with Barnes, and both Won Dreele
and Lang are anxious to hook
up with him. Won Dreele and
Lang are the two outstanding
singles shooters in Baltimore.
They have taken the measure on
many occasions of their ambi-
tious townsmen, and are no set-ups
for any bowler.
Won Campbell Stakes
Each of the prospective par
ticipants has a long and brilliant
record behind him.
Red" Megaw won the Howard
Campbell Sweepstakes four years
ago, won the Potomac Sweep
stakes last year and has always
placed high in various tourna-
ments and special events.
Ollie Pacini's triumph in The
Washington Times Dixie Sweep
stakes is his biggest achievement,
but he finished second to Barnes
for the National all-eVents title
and U. S. Sweepstakes, and beat
the slender Baltimorean IN a
head-to-head match.
Barnes, besides being the pres
ent U. S. Sweepstakes champion,
is the national all-event titleholder,
thus equalling Jack Whalen's rec
ord of holding two national titles
at one time. Whalen won the ma
tional singles and the U. S. Sweep
stakes last year. Won Dreele was
No. l ranking bowler of the U. s:
for 1880, and held the national
doubles championship with Ed
Smith in 1929.
Lang's most outstanding feat
was winning the Lucky Strike pre-
season Sweepstakes in the Autumn
of 1880. His TIA record flve-game
total rolled in the first block
forced the cancellation of the
other two blocks. He is one OF
Baltimore's most feared money
shooters.
