Seeded No. /, she was expected
to romp through the early rounds
into the finals.
Because the opening of school
Us not far away. Mrs. Martinez,
a school teacher, had to leave
the city yesterday on her vaca-
ton.
She had entered with the ex-
pectation of starting play early
last week but the heavy rains
of the first few days soon put
that notion out of her head.
Stand -Out COntenders
Mary Ryan, Betty Whitfield,
Ruth McElvey and Margaret
Ryan loom as the strongest con-
tenders for the women's crown.
A possible dark horse, who is
worth watching in the mems sin
giles, is Ray Stocklinski Patent
Office, who plays Tomelden, of
the same office, in the third round
today at p. m. on the Henry
Park courts. All Mr.. StocklinSki
has done so far is trim Hoffecker,

just to show it wasn't just one of
those things, took Ted Gerth Gus

he been living and able to witness
the Indians exhibition as fielderS
in yesterdays opener of the
doubleheader, for two of Mana
ger Johnson's two dependables,
Bill Cissell and JOHNNY Burnett,
played "Dromios" to perfection.
CisSell might have been called
EpheSus in this case while Bur-
nett could have played the part
of Syracuse up to mustard. Both
performers got the Indians into
plenty of trouble during the game
as they uncorked three errors
apiece which figured largely in
the Grhf scoring. Oh, well.
The Indians made nine errors
all told. Besides the six turned
in by Cissell and Burnett, Averill
made one, Hale another, and
Spencer still another. And with
such a great crowd looking on,
too.
Second Game
The Griffs wasted four hits In
the first two innings as in each
instance they couldn't shove
across any runs. But it didn't
hurt a whole lot as Crowder re-
tired the Indians without any
markers in their first two ap-
pearances at the plate.
But wait moment, fans, wait
a moment. Crowder went hay
wire or something in the Indians
third as Manager Johnsons men
climbed all over the veteran
hurler for six big runs. Think OF
it; our good old General" being
socked to all corners of the lot
this way. Alex McColl, the Chatta-
nooga twirler, had to be summoned
before it was all finished to get
the side out.
Heaviest Hit
One Of the heaviest hits dur
ing the orgy was off Burnett's
bat, who drove a triple to deep
center. scoring Pytlak and Brown.
Fred Schultz did the unusual on
his hit as he misjudged the fly,
the ball going a mile-a-minute
clip over his head after he had
run in on it.
"He always plays better after
3 o'clock than at any other time"
Cleveland scribes confess about
Bill Cissell, tribe shortstop, after
witnessing one of his best per-
formances at short in moons dur
ing the second game. Besides
he had to do something to make
amends for all those errors in
the first contest" the scribes
concluded.
And make amends Cissell cer-
tainly did. In the fourth, for
example, he made two excellent
stops and throws to retire Schultz
and Boken, respectively, going
back of third for Schulte's drive
and racing back of second for
Boken's grasser. Then he crashed
through with a sensational run
for Goslin's fly near the foul line
in the fifth.
The Washington times., 1933-08-28

The fact that Cronin and his
gang have the chance of becom-
ing the new 1888 champions is
the reason, as the baseball popu-
lace in every City has wanted to
get a glimpse of the team that
has been able to down the Yankee
reign when records Of last year
are brought to attention.
The Griffs, for example, drew
almost 10000 fans for yesterdays
doubleheader with the Cleveland
Indians. General Manager Billy
Evans, of the Indians, stated after
the games that this figure was
the largest ever to have assembled
in the huge Cleveland stadium
since it's opening last year when
the Philadelphia AS drew 10000
persons. And larger than when
the Yankees drew a crowd Of
$4,000 cuStome erS about two
months ago, when they were then
in first place and apparently we'll
on their way to their second
straight pennant.
First Game
The Tribe infield cracked be-
hind Harder as early as the first
inning when Cissell and Hale
bobbed up with errors. The Griffs
therefore were able to count
three runs, aided also by singles
off the bats of Bluege and Cos
lin.
Some call him just an ordinary
third baseman. Others nominate
him as the "old master"
One Of Those Plays
At any rate, Ossie Bluege made
one of those plays in the second
inning that was characteristic Of
his classic style. Runners were
on first and second when Spen
Ger hit a twister down the third
base line. Oss went towards the
bag like a flash, stopped the
ball, but was knocked goofy by
Burnett crashing into third all
the while. But Ossie didn't let
this bother him as he retrieved
the ball and threw out Spencer
by step at first. The play
saved Whitehill a run as Earl
was so inspired that he struck
out Harder, the next batter.
The law of averages certainly
helps ofttimes. The case of Bill
Cissell, Tribe shortstop, offers ar
interesting example. Bill bobblec
the first two chances that came
his way during the early part o.
the game, but on his third ht
made a whale of a stop and threw
to retire Boken in the fourth. The
crowd which had booed him I'm
mercifully earlier had to turr
their booes to cheers after this
one, proving that the law of aver
ages can't keep a guy down" al
the time.

to Washington today from weed grow
ers of Eastern North Carolina.

Although farmers Of the section have

Of this year, reports of prices paid on

the prices on the markets in Eastern
Carolina will be unsatisfactory when
they open.
FLORENCE, s. c., August II R.-
Offerings on the South Carolina and
border belt tobacco markets were light
today as usual before a Saturday holi-
day and little change was noted over
yesterdays opening prices.
Tobacco reaching the warehouse
floors continued to consist largely OF
lugs and first primings and averages
on the various markets stood around
IL or 13 cents a pound.
Only 250,000 pounds was on the ware
house floors at Lake City, one of the
larger South Carolina markets, when
sales began. A tabulation there fol
the first hours sales gave an average
Of $l2.20 hundred.
