The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-10

The debate Is expected to ex- tract about $6O,OOO from some 56,0 O0customers, all of which will be turned over to the Association of Professional Baseball Ulayers' fuf1l for need ex-players. The meeting is in its second reincarna- tion, the original having been held at Chicago last last year where it drew $46,501.99 from 49,200 persons.
 For those who like their statis- tics hot or cold, there will be ap- proximately $360,00U worth of ball ly wages, out on the Polo grounds when Umpire Cy Pfirman yells, "play ball"
 In case these figures prove bor- ing, it may be we'll to point out that upwards of 100000 baseball addicts throughout the Republic, plus two baseall thinkers from New York and Washington, have doped out two groups that are probably the finest collections of baseball talent on paper that have been assembled in a single play. ing field.
 Real Game
 The important point is that the boys will not be playing on paper. They will be out on the greensward below Coogan's bluff, trying to prove that the American league turns out better ball players than the National league crop, and vice versa.
 With some of the best pitching talent in recent years, headed by Goofy Gomez and Carl Hubbell, arrayed against the most foFfnid- able lineup of horsehide beltefs any of these pitching fellows has ever faced, anything is likely to happen.
 Can the tall senor from San Fran cisco bore his fire-ball past such astute batting eyes as those of Joe Medwiek, Wally Berger, Kiki Guy Ter, Bill Terry, Pie Traynor, Mel Ott? Can Carl Hubbell, lanky port-sider from the Ozark hills, snake his screwball around the worthy bludgeons of Lou Gehric, Heinie Manush, Charlie Gehhifl- ger, Al Simmons of George Her. man Ruth?
 No Deed Stuff
 How much brain-trusting there will be in this game, and how much of it will be sheer, lusty, free swinging Is a matter of conjecture. Some say you can't master mind with so many master minds at hand.
 The National league starting lineup will have three player-man- agers aboard--Frankie Frisch of the Cards, Pie Traynor of the Pi- rates and Bill Terry of the Giants. Joe Cronin is the only boss on the American side, but he has a mum Der of experts in their own right who get salaries from Joe and may not accept his suggestions.
 The lineups ar virtually sattled, save for shortstop on the National team, where Travis Jacksof's sore eye may keep him out, with Arky Vaughn of the Pirates talk ing his place. Vaughn a left-hand hitter and Terry would rather use Jackson starboard swinger. against Lefty Gomez. The Arkansas in batting.
 Likewise Terry will do some juggling with his outfeld, but not until Fl Gomez departs. Medwick, Cuyler and Berger, all right hand CTS at bat, will start, with Terry's left hand outfield array. Paul Wa ner, Ott and Klein, held in re. serve for such moment as Cornin may send in one of his starboard fingers, Russell, Rufiing, Harder or Bridges.
 Cronin may make a last-minute shift of Ben Chapman, right. handler against Hubbell, a port slider, in his starting outfit, holding Heinie Manush in reserve for q righthand pitcher.
 Anyway, you can pay your money and take your choice. odds favor the American leaguers at ' to 10 against, with even money on the Nationals and no takers. The game goes on at 1880 p. m.
