Sox don't know whether they're
a ball club or just a bunch of
samples in Lou Fonseca's trunk
for him to sell while he's out
on the road. Right now the
boys are thinking more Of
lodging the auctioneer's flag
than coping the pennant.
Speaking of trades this
season, Babe Ruth's legs were
supposed to be bad, but I
haven't heard of the Yankees
trying to displace him with
Marlene Dietrich.

ON GR|FFS

Johnny Allen, who won 81 games
and lost nine for Toronto and
Jersey City in the international
League last year, was knocked out
of the box by the Boston Red
Sox in his first start with the
Yankees this year, but yesterday
he came through in fine style to
blank the st. Louis Browns, 3 to O.
He yielded only five hits and did
not permit a single st. Louis
player to reach third base.
Allen hit a triple and scored
the first run of the game. He
was aided by his battery mate,
Bill Dickey, who made three hits
and drove in the other two runs
as the YankS chalked up their
fourth victory in succession, and
gained another half game on the
league leading Washington Sen
atorS, who were idle. 49,.

Gently were valued by Manager
Max Carey at what seemed to

bit of relief flinging as the Dodgers
beat st. Louis, 6 to 8, in IL in

Wooledge, who has been compare
lively idle this spring because of a
broken arm suffered in an automo-
bile accident in California, while q
member of the University of South
ern California freshman squad, may
not compete in any of the doubles
events because of the limit to which
he must confine himself following
the accident. He holds both the
mems and junior singles titles.
Play in the state events is expected
to be completed late Tuesday. and
the Red River open then will get un-
der way, extending probably late in
the week.
A formidable entry list is expected
for the state tournament. In addi-
ton to Wooledge, it will include most
all of Fargo's outstanding chal-
lengers.
Leonard Blaidsell, who won the
state title the last time in 1928, is
one Of the entries expected from
Minot. Read Wooledge, another
Magic City player, also will be here
for the two tennis classics.

G. P. Eat Shop Club Sets Down
Morton County Diamond
ball Contingent

A diamondball team, playing under
the colors of the Grand Pacific Eat
Shop, stirred up inter-city rivalry
here last night when the locals rode
rough-shod over the Mandan Drug, 20
to 8, on the local diamond.
The winning delegation was the
same club that played for the Eat
Shop in the first bracket in the Bis
march commercial league. The vic
tory marked the teams 18th win in
as many starts.
In the contest with the Morton
county crew. the locals were led by
Bigler and Hoffman at the bat, each
connecting for total of three hits
No player on the Mandan roster hit
safely more than once.
Neibauer, starting for the Chefs
allowed only five bingles in five in
nings but lost control in the fifth
stanza and was replaced by Brown
who held the opposition hitless in the
last two frames.
Syvrud, on the hill for Mandan. was
hit hard in the first four innings
when the locals piled up ii runs.
Loose fielding by the Drugmen con-
tributed to their defeat.
Three games between the Restaur-
anthem and the Toman Tailors, lead
ers of the Mandan city D-ball circuit,
have been scheduled.

The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1932-07-27

The worst fault of beginners in iron
play is topping the shot. They at
tempt to loft the ball with move
ment of the hands or body instead
OF letting the clubhead do the work.
Jock Hutchinson once told me that
the midiron and mashie are the east
est clubs to play. yet they give the
beginner the most trouble.
Hit the ball criSply and send the
clubhead straight on after the ball,
swinging it out along the ground as
far as the arms will permit.
A topped shot often is not hit on
top. 1t is done by starting the club
head up too soon. The ball is hit
on the upswing after the clubhead
has reached the bottom of the arc.

PHILADELPHIA CLUB
CONDUCTS ASSAULT
ON CIRCUIT LEADERS
In Virtual Tie With Boston for
Third Place in Senior
Division
RED S0x WIN CONTEST
Brooklyn Dodgers Win Double.
header From Browns; Cubs
Beat Boston
(By The Associated Press)

The Phillies, starting another ex
tended stand in their own Bake,
Bowl, may supply the big news Of tn,
next few weeks in the Nationa
League.
This club has found itself and i!
coming along. In a virtual tie fol
third place Wednesday, it promises t.
be higher when Klein. Hurst, Whit.
ney and Bartell get through with 9
few dozen visiting pitchers.
When they opened their last home
stand against the west almost two
months ago, the Phils were in sew
enth place. Now they have won 10
of their last IA starts, mostly on the
road.
A typical assault, which netted
eight runs off Owen CAROLS delivery
in the first two innings, gave Burt
Shotton's sluggers a~10-to-5 victory
over Cincinnati in Tuesdays opener
Klein, Hurst and Whitney each hit a
home run.
The Pirates and Giants, inaugural
ing crucial" series of seven games
in four days at the Polo Grounds,
split a double-header. Bill Terry's
homer with two aboard helped the
Giants take the first, Z to 3, but
the league leaders came back to cap
ture the second, Z to 5, in 10 innings.
The Chicago Cubs picked up a half
game on Pittsburgh by trimming the
Boston Braves, Z to 2. behind Pat
Malone's five-hit pitching perform
ance. Brooklyn's surprising Dodgers
thumped the St. Louis Cardinals
twice, II to and to 4.
Two contests survived the rain In
the American League, and in one of
them the Boston Red Sox turned
their newest pitcher, Johnny WEIGH,
loose on the Chicago White Sox for
a 6-to-1 victory.
George Blaeholder's steady pitch
ing, plus his timely single that scored
Levey in the second inning with the
winning run, gave the st. Louis
Browns 3-to-2 decision over WASH
ington.
