knew form. Perry himself was no
less surprised by the turn OF
events and, as he made his way to
the dressing room afterwards, he
frankly admitted it, saying:
II haven't played a decent
round for two years. My game
simply came back in the nick
of time. In addition, all the
breaks came my way today"
Perry hardly started off impress
sively this afternoon, for he took
a 6 on the par four first hole
and everybody felt that the blow
up had come. Instead, he reeled
off the final II holes in two
under As, coming through in the
pinch as only real champion
can.
His six at the first was the
result of being in the rough with
his tee shot and later three-put'
ting the green. He followed with
brides at the third and fifth and,
after taking a S at the eighteenth,
he came through with brides at
the tenth and seventeenth.
HoIed Putt for 3
At the tenth he hit beautiful
approach to within five feet OF
the flag and holed the putt for a
three. A pulled second shot lost
him a stroke to par at the twelfth
and he repeated the performance
with his tee shot to take four
on the short sixteenth.
However, he got a birdie 4 at
the seventeenth, where, with a
following wind, he got home with
two woods and down with his sec
ond putt, a performance that just
about closed the books.
Cotton, the dethroned cham
pion, was the first to grasp Perrys
hand as he came off the final
green and later said to friends:
Naturally, I'm disappointed
by my showing, but that really
doesn't matter, so long as the
championship stays on this side
or the wafer.

RADCLIFFE ONCE
SANDLOTTER

Among the players whose bat
ting has added much to the at
tack of the Chicago White SoX is
Rip Radcliffe. He shares with
Vernon Washington the new &C.
claim of the South Side ball fans.
Radcliffe is enjoying his success
with the Sox all the more because
he was once cast adrift with
hardly trial in 1881 when DOME
Bush led the Windy City team.
Undaunted by his early failure
in the big leagues, Radcliff gained
much needed minor league expert.
ence. A left-handed hitter, he
studied southpaw pitchers until
he felt he could hit portsiders as
well as right handlers.
SandlOts Is Start
The Oklahoma sandlots sent
Radcliffe on his way to belated
baseball fame. He was playing IN
Pittsburg, Okla, in 1927 when he
first attracted the scouts. Start
ing out with Tulsa in 1928, he
failed to impress and was quickly
sent to Muskogee.
Radcliffe played two exhibition
games for that team and drew his
release. Before the end of his
first season as a professional
player, he caught on with Paris
(Texas) in the Southwestern
League, hitting above 300 and
gaining experience and conf
dence.
It was while Radcliff was play
ing with Paris that the White Sox
heard of him. Dallas obtained
first call on his services and
farmed him in 1929 to Muskogee
for his second trial there.
The young player Immediately
had conspicuous success and
wound up the season with mark
of 1853. Dallas transferred Rad
cliff to Selma in the Southeastern
League in 1880, where he gained
more batting honors by driving
in 100 runs. His mark Of 1863 led
the White Sox scouts to recon-
mend his purchase. The club
bought him from Dallas to play
first base. Having inspected Rad
cliff, DOME Bush decided that
Lou Blue would do at first, and
once again Radcliff landed back
with Dallas.
Sent to Shreveport
For some reason this player,
even with a 1863 battling mark,
did not appeal to the owners of
the Steers, so Radcliffe was
shipped to Shreveport to play the
outfield. and he has been an out,
fielder ever since. He played with
Dallas the next season. In 1888
his work with st. Paul was SO
impressive Connie Mack bought
him for the Athletics.
The plight of the Athletics for
catchers led Mack to trade Rad
cliff to Louisville for Catcher
Erickson. While playing for
Louisville Radcliff hit so well the
White Sox scouts pronounced the
man, once cast adrift by their
bosses, the best hitting oatfielder
in the minors. Rounding up the
1884 season with the White Sox,
Radcliff did not display the dash.

At this juncture, w. ]. Branch

Cronin.
Ossie Bluege, veteran OF vet
Grams, is the man selected ana IL
promises to be one of the most
deserving in seasons because OF
Bluege's splendid play all year.
Others Mentioned
Three other players had been
mentioned for the post. They
were Joe Cronin, as Player No. l.;
Bill Rogell, of the Detroit Tigers
as Player No. 2. and Eric McNair,
of the Philadelphia AS, as Player
No. 8. Cronin was selected out
of the trio, which means he'll dl-
vide honors with Bluege for the
game.
There's. an interesting story
back of this Bluege angle even
though it goes back to the days
when the veteran was a third
baseman only.
First Year of Game
That was the first year the All.
Star game was played. The selec'
lions were voted upon then, and
because the idea for the game
was conceived by Chicago news
paper, Chicago fans right away
gave Jimmy Dykes so many votes
for third base that Bluege's name
was lost in the shuttle. Quite
like the present, many figured
Ossie should have been given the
preference.
Now, Bluege has won an honor
he richly deserves. He has played
fine ball ever since taking Lyn
Lary's place as the Griff's regu'
lar shortstop-that was in May
and has backed it up by hitting
the ball for an enviouS average
something not part of Bluege's
attributes before.
Ossie Has Grace
Fans will see the perSonification
of grace when old Ossie steps on
the field. Most A meri ca n
Leaguers know of the fellows
worth, but to the thousands who
will be cycling him for the first
time he's sure tn bring those ia
miliar "ah's and obs" to their
lips. He has that much class
about him as an infielder.
The fact that he will be forced

hurt Ossie. 1t was inevitable that
Cronin was selected as, after all,
the fans of the country want a
glimpse of the Frisco Kid, who is
today the highest priced bulk of
baseball timber in the majors. But
when Ossie gets in there. Well.
sir, we American Leaguers know
how he'll field, even though he
may be stopped at bat.
