Judge Is Possibility

This may appear a remote
possibility, but there's an out
side chance Of Joe Judge STEP
ping into the st. Louis breach
should postponement of naming
a permanent manager be made
until next winter. With the
Browns apparently going no
where, there would be no neces-
sity for Owne-:' Ball having to
be in a hurry about making up
his mind.
setween you and me and the
postman, Judge feels a little
out Of place in the National
League. An American Lacquer
by nature, he is very far from
at home in those National
League parks. The atmosphere
in the older loop isn't what
Judge is accustomed to and
his intimates declare he'll
never rest until he finds a niche
in the circuit to which he
gave II years of his playing
life.
It is known he has made his
desires clear in quarters where
it might do the most good.
You know there is a saying
In baseball:
"Once an American Lacquer,
always an American Lacquer"
It goes for the National
League, too, but that is beside
the question.

A Very Close Secret

Meanwhile, the strange case
Of William Killefer, another eX-
Brownie manager, remains a
q secret locked up in the boSomS
Of two men, Killefer and Owner
Phil de CatSby Ball, st. Louis
refrigeration and brew magnate.
While Vice President l.. c..
McEvoy came East especially to
ask for Killefer's resignation, he
didn't know a thing when ap-
preached by reporters. He didn't
even know the time Of day and
wouldn't have told had he
known.
Allen Sothoron, personal
friend and teammate of Kille-
fers was just as tight-lipped.
Sothoron wasn't sure it was
Wednesday and If his life de-
pended upon it couldn't have
said what time the Browns were
leaving for Philadelphia.
So it's something very per-
sonal-personal twiXt Ball and
Killefer.
Perhaps Bill is going to marry
Marline DIETRICH or Peggy Hop
kins Joyce, and, deciding base
ball and romance wouldn't mix,
resigned.
That's as good an answer as

An out-and-out challenge to

wrestling cast is offered by Ray
Steele today as he awaits to-
nights finish showdown with
Pat O'Shocker. The latter has

Hitting That Ball

Yes sir, those II hits helped
our cause considerably and it
sure looked good to see Myer
and GoSlin and Kuhel and
Sewell up there at the bat re-
peating. Manush alone was
handcuffed, but when he's got
eight teammates pounding that
pill, he might as well save his
bingleS for a day when the
others aren't connecting.
It was a right happy crew
that went to the Washington
dressing room after the game
to don their civilian clothes.
"That's more like it," said
CrOnin as he strOpped his
razor for a pOst-game shave,
snow watch us go!"
Considerable speculation went
the rounds Of the locker room
as to the identity of the next
manager of the st. Louis
Browns, nee Bill Killefer, re-
signed.
Since it it admitted from st.
Louis that Allan Sothoron'S
tenure is but temporary, the
names Of Oscar Melillo and
Muddy Ruel were banded
about freely as being logical
choice. Melillo is team captain
at present.
Thousands Of Washingtonians
would be pleased to their toes
II the good fortune should fall
to Ruel,. one of the most ad-
Inired and respected players
who ever caught for or against
the Griffmen.
His world series catching here
in 1924 and 1925 will never be
forgotten. So far as people here
in the Capital are concerned he
is the greatest one-man catching
staff ever known to baseball.
The Washington times., 1933-07-20

rain.
The reason? The Griffmen got
back into the winning column yes
terday and by turning the trick
caught up to the New York
Yankees, for the second time this
season, for first-place honors.
Just how long this deadlocked
situation will continue cannot be
told at this hour of the season,
and even if an idea could be
given, there wouldn't be any use
relying on it, as apparently most
anything can happen in the
heated battle now going on be-
tween Manager Cronin's gang and
the YankS.
Still, there's this much to be
said of the Griffs today. They
passed an unusually precarious
crisis yesterday in their game
with the st. Louis Browns which,
had the result gone the other way,
might have pushed the morale Of
the team TO new low for low
ebbs.
Instead the Griffs are once
more full of hope today and are
ready to believe again there's
surely such thing as chance in
this baseball racket which might
be gained in every way if their
respective chins are kept high in
the air and every effort is put
forth to win in the face of the
worst gloom.
Team Hits Well
The best item of the Griffs'
work yesterday was their improved
batting form. Held almost at a
standstill at bat for the past three
days, Manager Cronin and his
boys broke out in an exceptional
fury Of basehits which was every
reason why they were able to down
their opponents and every reason
why they beat a pitcher who has
been something short of poison for
them throughout the campaign.
The victory also kept another
Griff characteristic intact. It
meant the winning of the set with
the Browns and the winning Of
every series, save one, that the
team has gained since early in
June when the idea dawned that
triumphS and series could be
won.
Luke Sewell was one particu-
lar member of Cronin's cast who
out in his hitting yes
terday. The dependable catcher,
who has been in the throes of q
trying slump, uncorked two very
timely hits off his bat which
helped his team immensely in the
scoring of runs at needed mo-
ments.
Kept Rally Alive
His first basehit was single
and it came in the fourth inning
with Kuhel on second base. 1t
tied the count at that moment
and kept a rally going which
finally eliminated in three more
runs as a result of Myers triple
with the bases full.
Luke's next hit arrived in the
eighth and started the Griffs off
on a rally which ultimately
proved the turning point Of the
game. It was a prodigious triple
to the left field corner and it
scored Kuhel from second, who
had reached that station after
his single and Bluege's sacrifice.
The other Griffs followed
example at bat in
check-up of their efforts. The
only man who didn't get base
knock was Heine Manush. But
this can be overlooked as Heine's
been doing plenty of commend
able hitting lately and besides
didn't the Griffs win without his
hitting help, for once, yesterday?

WITHIN a short distance os The

well back from the edge of the
green, Bobby Jones generally pitches
short, allowing the ball to roll the
rest of the way. The ball Is pitched
sufficiently, however. to allow it to
land on the putting green itself. No
chance is taken on an irregularity
of the ground spelling the shot !;
which might occur If the bali came
down on the fairway first. For this
reason Jones increases the loft of

tance from the green. Near the
putting surface a mashie iron can
be used, the ball pitched to the
edge and plenty of roll added. Fur
ther back a more lofted club is re-
quired to send the ball in an arc
that will be sure to reach the vicin-
ity of the green and stop near the
cup. Thus the mashie. mashie nib
lick, and niblick can be used at this
time for this play. The shot is gen.

one around the Smiling Pool was
interested. 1t was very much the
same as it would be if a new house
were being built near where you

in that house every single neighbor

Just so at the Smiling Pool there
was a great deal of interest in what
Jerry was doing. Grandfather Frog
was interested. Billy Mink and Lit

wing the Blackbird was interested.
Sp0tty the Turtle was interested.
You see 1t gave them something to
think about and talk about and crit

OF time watching Jerry work, and
giving him advice which he didn't
ask for and didn't heed.

sitting. "Chug -a-rum! | suppose,

So far all that we have been say
ing pertains to daytime fashions as
they sound the satin note, but If
you wish to follow evening trends
you will discover that it is satin
which is leading the way. Satin
with lustrous finish and silk back
is the wanted kind for formal dress.
Stunning dinner gowns combine black
satin for the skirt with white satin
for the bodice and girdle as sketched
in the center of the group.
Novelty satins for evening wear
especially intrigue the fancy. All
sorts of effects are shown, from
printed design to interviewer bar
and rib novelties, also jacquard eff
fects and stripes which alternate
satin and dull crepe. Perhaps the
most interesting Of them all is the
new reversible satin which may be
one color on one side and another
on the opposite, or it may be had
with one shiny and one dull sur
face. The color play Of these fasci-
mating two-tone satins is inexhaust-
ible.
Evening gowns of cleaning white
or off-white satin have their Sc
verely classic necklines softened
with handsome white ostrich boas
or with leis formed of petals cut
from sheerest silk mousseline. An
other feature of the evening mode
is the dazzling mirror jewelry which
is worn with these gowns Of white
satin.
One of the smartest type gowns
shown for immediate daytime wear
is the shirtwaist frock which is tai
lored of crepe satin.

IT YOU have not already done so,
satin suit or frock for immediate
wear, for satin is the opening SEN
satiOn on the new style program.
Favor for satin is running at such
high pitch at this moment, even
our hats, our handbags and our
gloves are being made Of satin,
while certain exclusive booteries
are displaying shoes of satin.
The call of the hour is for the
black satin jacket suit. Ideal it is
for mid-season wear. Just the thing
to don when summer togs take on
that passe look which they always
do when cool days herald the ap-
proach of autumn. Which is why
we are presenting herewith several
sketches of the newest fashions
styled of satin.
The suit to the left has the three
quarter-length coat which has won
it's way into the hearts of woman
kind. The organdie frill, large bow
and the adoring cuffs of the gloves
carry the pretty fashion of white
accessory touches on into the fall
program.
The other charming satin ensem-
Bile happily combines black with
white satin. The top part of the
dress is fashioned of the white and
the hat is one of the new swanky
white satin sailors which you will
find are immensely fiattering.
The satin sailor, which is initi-
ating a program of midseason mil
linery, Is scoring triumph. For a
first" hat 1t is ideal. One of the
very newest models is shown in the
inset circle.
