The Washington times., 1936-12-08

When the HoyaS boarded a
train for the Magic City, the
thermometer here in Washington
was 38 degrees. When the visit
ing grid squad got off the train
in Miami, some % hours later,
the thermometer was at "a de-
grees, change of 46 degrees! At
game-time last Friday night, the
thermometer in Miami was at 81
degrees, yet in the game, particu-
larly in the final quarter, George
town was coming always and rap
idly. while Miami was fading, and
rapidly.
Change Didn't Hurt
At first it seemed that the sharp
change in temperature would hurt
the HoyaS very much. Early in
the contest, or throughout the
first two periods, it appeared that
the Georgetown players were
breathing rather hard and that
the blood pressure of the players
was vitally affected. However, IN
the last two quarters, but more
prominently in the final canto,
the Hoyas appeared much stronger
than their adversaries and proved
it by practically pushing the Hur-
ricanes all over the lot.
True, Georgetown was defeated,
but it was the consensus Of those
in the press box that had the

Grid Yanks Stop
ShamroCks, 2O-13

There's just no stopping the foot
ball fan. Nearly $500 of the
hardest in the land turned out
last night to see the New York
Yankees football team-not
the ball players, beat the Boston
Shamrocks at Griffith Stadium.
The score was 20 to 13.
The Yankees were vastly super
ior to their rivals, and it seemed
that with a little more pressure
here and there, they might have
scored at least another touchdown.
Harry Newman, former Michi-
gan ace, turned in a brilliant job,
as did Hank Soar. They were
leaders of teams that offered them
real support.

Detroit Seeks
BuCkNewS0nn
Griff Ace

NEW YORK, Dec. s.-"We want
Newsom!"
Many times this cry was heard
in washington last season by fans
who wanted the big highlander
of the Washington Griffmen on
the mound At least this was the
case early in the year when New
som was at his height.
Now the Detroit Tigers, a brother
team, yea and in the same league,
want the Dragging North Caro-
linian.
Mickey Cochrane, vice president
and manager Of the Tigers, is
willing to put out $55,0OO for the
pitcher. But MeSSrS, Clark Grit.
fifth and Stanley Harris, repre-
Senting the Washington interests,
want something besides the fifty
odd grand.
Seek Players in Exchange
They want players in exchange.
And thereby hangs the tale of the
hold-up on the deal. It has been
said, the Tigers are willing (this
makes the second time they're
willing) to send Pete Fox, the
right-handed hitting outfielder,
and Eden Auker, the underhand
pitcher, to the Griffs in exchange
for Big" Buck.
But MeSSrS. Griffith and Har-
ris want more. It remains to be
seen what the outcome of it all
will be. But it definitely proves
that Newsom is on the block as
Griff trading bait and that the
Tigers are chief nibblers.
Getting Fox and Auker, should
the trade be made, would be only
half fulfilling Griffmen hopes at
the meeting here. At the outset,
Messrs. Griff and Harris planned
to get a catcher before they did
anything else.
There is the possibility the New
som bait will get them their man
yet. Several propositions have
been discussed between the Wash
ington club mogulS and others.
One is the possibility of a Wash
ington- Boston deal whereby New
som would go to the Red Sox in
exchange for Rick Ferrell, whom
Cronin, Yawkey and Collins are
said to have cooled on.
other Deals RumOred
Another is that a Washington
St. Louis deal might be made in
volving Rollie Hemsley while still
another has the old Washington
Cleveland deal revived which would
bring Frankie Pytlak to the Griff-
men.
Griffith also renewed his ef-
forts to establish a 25-cent ad-
mission for children at the regu-
lar championship games of the
American League. Two years
ago Griffith admitted children at
25 cents a head. but was ordered
by Judge Lands to stop the sale
of these tickets.
Griffith has been at work
quietly for the past couple of
days working with other Amer
lean League club owners on the
matter of cheaper tickets for the
kids, and perhaps this time his
efforts will bear fruit, he thinks.

 ARE PATROLLED

Rutland, Vt, Jan. o--(Up)-- Plants of the strike-beset Vermont Marble company were patrolled by guards today even though union of- ficials had withdrawn pickets. Ape proximately 5000 members of the international Association of Marble Workers and the Quarry Workers International union, both afiiliates of the American Federation of Labor, went on strike Nov. 12. They demand recognition of seniority rights and better working condi- tions.
 An inquest was being conducted into Tuesdays riots in which 17 persons, including 12 deputy sheriffs, were injured severely enough to require disqualification. Six men pleaded not guilty when arraigned yesterday on charges of rioting and failure to disperse. Their cases were continued until Mon- day. Meantime, police and deputy sheriffs sought 125 sticks of dyna- mite, believed stolen from West Rutland and Poultney quarries. It was feared the explosive might be used to damage company property.
