Griff Behind
Fete 10 Ace
PLAYER

Plans are moving along rapidly
for the Buddy Lewis Day" to
be staged at Griffith Stadium
July 10 during the visit of the
Cleveland Indians. The District
of Columbia Department of the
American Legion, together with
Clark Griffith, president of the
Washington baseball club, Is put
ting on" the show.
The purpose behind this recog-
milton on the part of the Amerl'
can Legion to be accorded the
sensational young third sacker OF
the Griffmen is the fact that
Buddy Lewis is product Of the
American Legion'S Junior Base
ball League and the first member
from that group to reach the
stellar heights of a big league
berth in the American League.
The Legion has made other
contributions to the m o r
leagues in the way of talent. A
particular case is Phil Cavaretta,
initial sack guardian OF the Chi
cago Cubs. Phils baseball rise
was also spectacular, as he joined
the Bruins while they were in
the midst of their pennant drive
last year after Manager Charlie
Grimm's aging legs folded dur
ing the Cubs sustained push
which ultimately gave them the
flag.
Tentative arrangements call for
a preliminary game between two
local American Legion kid teams
to be played prior to the regular
scheduled Washington Cleveland
game at about 1870. A prelimi-
nary feature to the game itself
will be a parade to the flagpole
in center field, headed by the Sons
of the Legion Drum and Bugle
Corps, which, in itself, will take
on the semblance of opening day
exercises.
Following the parade around
the field, the presentation to
Lewis is to be made. Department
Comdr. Joseph j. Malloy is to
award a suitable trophy to Buddy,
while Ray Murphy, national COM
mander, is to offer a brief ad-
dress.
A telegram has been sent to
the Chamber of Commerce, of
Gasonia, N. c., inviting that body
to assist in the exercises. It was
from the team representing that
city that Buddy gained fame that
attracted the attention of scouts
by his play in the Legion's little
world series, which ultimately
paved his way to the major
league.

well money is the supreme talk
ing weapon of the land.
There have been whispers in
baseball circles that possibly Clark
Griffith, who has working agree
ment with C NIB as Albany
club, might be in the ice rink
deal with Cambria, but both Joe
and Griff deny this, and they
ought to know.
Finally, it has been this writer's
observance of Cambria, that, be-
side being a better than average
business operator, he has some
thing which so many sports spon-
sors do not possesS-Showman-
ship.
It was Cambria who picked up
Alabama Pitts out of Sing Sing
and defied Judge Lands and all
of baseball, to keep Pitts from
earning an honest living in base
ball when he was to be thrust back
on society after an unfortunate
record as felon.
Crack Cost 500
It was Cambria who developed
Roberto Estalella, the colorful
Cuban ball player. Cambria
went to Havana last winter and
picked up half a dozen other
Cubans, some of whom you will
probably hear from within year
or two.
It was Cambria who, hailed be-
fore Judge Lands for some trad
ing infraction while he was still
inexperienced in the ways of base
ball law, told the judge:
CAV, judge, don't be so tough.
You know Pm just little organ
grinder from Baltimore and
can't stand these stiff baseball
fines. 1 don't drive to work
in a limousine every morning
like you big wigs high up in the
game!"
The speech cost Cambria just
500, Judge Lands being as usual
without sense of humor, despite
the fact he had told confidentes
before Cambria's hearing that he
was going to scare the dickens out
of that little Baltimore Dago,
and then let him off scott free.
So, with Cambria's plain, straight
forward tongue and methods, and
his love for color in sports, you
can expect him to bring hockey
team to Washington next winter
boaSting a couple of French
Canadian counts, mobiles or dukes
and possibly a pair of Indian
guides as alternate goalies.
And here's to a great, coura-
geous little guy with confidence
in his convictions, the latest of
which is that Washington is starv-
Ing for hockey and kindred ice
sports!

PARIS, September 3.-Danger of q
desperate gesture" to spur foreign in
tervention may make the final phase
Of the Spanish civil war the most
menacing to the peace of Europe, in
formed observers agreed today.
Close followers Of the situation be-
lieved acts Of reckless consequence

There were growing indications

mercy is expected by one group or the
other at the hands Of the victor.
Therefore, the losers, diplomatic cir
cles pointed out, may choose to invite
foreign Intervention as the lesser of
two evils.
Observers feared this might take the
form Of deliberate attack on foreign
citizens or foreign shipping. Ships Of
other nations have been fired upon
during the long civil war. but such in
cidents thus far appear to have been
accidental.
Faced with concerted attack upon
its shipping, however, the injured
country would confront the problem:

new HULL WARNING
Secretary Appeals Again to 500
Americans to Use Facilities
to Leave Country.
Dy the Associated Press.


In what may constitute final warn
ing, Secretary Hull has dispatched q
new plea to the approximately 500
Americans still in Spain to leave the
country.
The State Department revealed last
night that the Secretary Of State again
has instructed the American Embassy
and all consulates in the revolution
torn country again to urge Americans
In their districts to avail themselves
of the present opportunity to leave
Spain"
Rejecting increasing official impa-
tience at the refusal of many nationals
to take advantage Of facilities made
available for their evacuation, the
State Department chieftain acted
within "a hours after he had indicated
publicly that the United States Gov-
ernment was considering the with
drawal at an early date of war vessels
In rescue work in Spanish waters.
Secretary Hull pointed out that ap-
proximately 500 Americans had elected
to stay In Spain mainly on account Of
business or family reasons in spite of
repeated urgent warnings that they flee
the country while avenues of escape
still were open.
