n ESP1TE the cloutlng pro-
clivities of Jimmy Foxx,
- the distance bangor on the
Athletics, his team is not
able to get any closer to the top
than a far-away third. Nor is
Chicago banging at any ones door
of opportunity, despite the top-of-
the-heap batting on the part of
Al Simmons.
Which goes to prove. if proof be
needed, that it takes more than a scin-
tillating star to push team up to the
farthermost rung of the ladder.
Though team work, as eXemplified by
the Senators, is the only sure pop
modus operandi in pennant flight, the
long distance drop of Babe Ruth has
done more to keep the Yankees off the
throne than any one other mishap
which has happened to the once mighty
czars of punch.
But whether the return of long
and loud poking of the Mighty
<Bam would restore the New
Yorks to the pinnacle is a ques-
ton. Chances are that it would
be a big help in yanking the
Yanks out Of the doldrums in
which they have been mired since
the Great Man showed that he
was not what he once was. But
Babes hitting alone would win
no bunting.
Babes color. however, remains as
| brilliant as ever. The Bam can go
punchless for days. then hit one over
into the lumber yard to get greater
ovation than Jimmy FoxX would receive
| for bolting three of them over and be-
yond Babes pet nesting place.
! The difference between the Bam and
| Jimmy is that one lives base ball the
year around while the other is glad to
get away from it when the recess bell
taps.
You can go into the club house after
Yank game and find the Babe talking
base ball as excitedly as if he was a
rook. You will find him Cabling on the
pastime in the hotel, and I'm sure that
| when the Babe pulls the coverlets over
his ears at night he is muttering some
| thing about the diamond.
Foxx, on the other hand, is mighty
proud of his dairy farm down there
near Sudlersville, Eastern cho' of Mary
land James will pull out his briar pipe
in the locker room of the Athletics be-
| fore and after a game to talk COWS and
silos any time. While he is popped

CHAMPIONS FAIEh
ON WESTERN CLUBS

MOTHER chapter, the last
\ Of the season, which has
\ taken the Yankees West

A MOTHER chapter, the last
~ Of the season, which has
1 \ taken the Yankees West
and brought the Western
clubs of the National League East,
now is being unfolded in the base
ball wars.
The sectional games are more IN
favor of the Eastern clubs of the Amer
ican League than of the Western. The
sectional games OF the National League
are more in favor of the West than Of
the East.
In the American League the East
ern clubs have won 1875 contests from
the Western and lost 80. to date. In
the National League the Western clubs
have won 113 from the Eastern and
lost 104 This is smart showing for
Chicago st. Louis, Pittsburgh and Gin
cinnati, considering that the Giants
have held the league lead for some
weeks.
The Yankees have won "a and lost
20 to their Western rivals. Washing
ton and Philadelphia have each won
80 and lost % to the West. This rec
ord clearly shows that it is the East
ern clubs that have beaten New York
in the race thus far, and not the West.
Yanks Facing Test.
IF the current trip of the Yankees
means a record about similar to
that which they have made thus
far, they should win or 10 games and
lose or g. If they do any better than
that they will go farther toward clinch-
ing the pennant on this trip than they
have been able to do on either of the
two preceding trips. If they do worse,
their prospects virtually will be hope
less unless the Senators also bog down.
In the National League the Western
series begins in New York with a series
of games by Cincinnati. The Reds
have been the poorest winners from the
East of any Western club. They have
won % games and lost 80.
1t is foolish to predict what Cincin-
natl may do to New York. or what
New York may do to Cincinnati. The
possibilities of this New York team are
such that no one can tell what it will
do next It's timely hitting and its
way of proflting by an error cropping
up at just the right time have not been
surpassed by any New York club in the
last quarter of a century. 1t can win
more games in which it seems as il
defeat will be its part, through some
little one-horse play or some display Of
meteoric speed than Giants of the
20s.

himself hole in one.

efforts in the second annual ace
tournament staged by the World -Tele-

the pin on the plateau green, with
everything from spoons and midirons
down to sand wedges, but Hagen's ace

~HICAGO, August IGNORE than
10000 turned out to see the
Nationals make strong start
on this final Western swing of
the year with Clark Grifith himself
No. / rooter for the championship chas-
ing club
The Washington p-exy had said he
would join the club here late in the
week, but he surprised all hands by
breezing into the Nationals hotel bright
and early yesterday morning. He said
he might return home after this series,
but hotel reservations all along the
route for Griffith are being made by
Secretary Ed Eynon.
CLARK may not think SO now, but
he's making this entire trip with us, -
the secretary decided Hes the best
mascot we've ever had.
Crowder not only leads the WASH
ington pitchers in amount Of victories
scored this season. but he also enjoys
the distinction of being the only Wash
ington hurler to get 1000 batting rec
ord for full game this year. The Gen
eral yesterday walked in the third in
ming, the first time he faced Jones. He
doubled to start the sixth and singled
to start the eighth. With one out in
the ninth, Crowder combed Heving for
one-baSer.
"Who's gonna pitch for Wash
ingtcn in the opening game of
the world series?" that's what
Chicago fans are asking now.
In this town, they are sold on the
Nationals. Windy City fans can't
see the Yanks in any way. Their
club will have a chance to give
the Cronin crew a great boost
soon. The Yapks follow the Ma
tionals here for series of four
games In three days. The boys
here are saying Fonseca's gang
will put the New Yorks on the
spot.
Foot ball dealt base ball severe
blow here yesterday. Five hundred
coaches of the gridiron sport, gathered
Evening star., 1933-08-16

Still another angle to the gray pilot S
reticence in this matter is the effect it
might give his players. If Griff and
Cronin were to start shouting ''pennant"
the players might begin to feel that
the battle was over. And a let-down
now would be disastrous.

"Great and marvellous are

KIDNAP LEADER
. CONFESSES IN
. NJ 'ELROYCA

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 3
UN.SO.-Walter H. MCGEE, re-
turned here from Amarillo, Tex"
by airplane, made an oral confes-
sion to the kidnapping Of Miss
Mary McElroy. daughter Of City
Manager Henry F. McElroy
Thomas Higgins, captain Of de-
tectives, said today.
The death penalty will be asked
for the kidnapers of Miss McElroy,
County Prosecutor T. A. j. Mastln
announced.
w. L. Vandeventer, United
States district attorney, consented
to allow the State to prosecute the
kidnapers with the specific under
standing that the death penalty
would be invoked.
Under Lindbergh Law
This step was taken because,
under Federal law, the most severe
penalty for conviction would be
life Imprisonment.
Two indictments also we're to be
asked of Federal grand jury, one
under the "Lindbergh" law, which
makes it felony to transport a
kidnapped person across State
boundaries. The other law under
which the prosecution hopes for
an indictment prohibits use Of the
mails in sending kidnap demands.
Miss McElroy, released May %,
after payment of 100000 rarsom,
reiterated that she bears no malice
against the persons who held her
prisoner for 30 hours, but assured
police she would aid in every way
to convict her abductors.
Woman Accused
Those against whom indict-
ments will be sought are MCGEE,
ex-convict and alleged leader of
the gang; Windell johnson and
L. R. Gilbert, all arrested in
Amarillo, and Clarence L. Click
and Lucille Gates, former wife Of
MCGEE, arrested here.
In addition, police detained for
questioning two women who said
they were Mrs. Windell johnson
and Mrs. L. R. Gilbert, also ar
rested in Amarillo, and Abe Starr,
Leavenworth (KanD junk dealer.
Two others are sought.
