base ball entry unanimously rooted
today for another day-long order Of

out of the Browns opener and the
local weather prophets prediction of
more showers for today was causing
no moaning.
AS badly as the Harrismen need a

ously need rest even more. This is

the pride of Gastonia.
Buddy, 19-year-old Unfolding SEN
sation of the American League, cur
rently is undergoing his most severe
major league test. After a brilliant
debut as regular in the Washington
inf1eld, Buddy has slowed down to a
walk at bat. The logical reason
would seem that he needs q chance
to catch his breath. Manager Bucky
Harris, for one, hopes that's all there
is to it.

FAVORED FOR TRIP
AFTER HUDSON WIN
Washington's Boats Score
First Sweep at 'Keepsie
Since 1912 Regatta.
BY ALAN GOULD,

~ @OUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, June %.
In the wake of their smashing
sweep of the collegiate
i championship regatta on the
Hudson River, two of the Uni
versity of Washington's three trium-
phant eight-oared crews pointed to-
day for the final American Olympic
tryouts and the goal of trip to Ber-
lin to row for world honors.
To fortify their bid in the Olympic
tests at Princeton July AS, the all
conquering Huskies from Seattle plan
to send their crack junior varsity
eight, as we'll as the magnificent var
sity boat load that came roaring
through the last mile of the 4-mile
race last evening to dethrone Califor-
MAS defending champions and
achieve the first three-ply sweep in "a
years.
On Lake Carnegie and over the
Olympic 2000-meters route, equiva-
lent to mile and quarter, Wash
ington's oarsmen will be challenged
again by five of the college crews they
defeated yesterday, as we'll as several
of the East's crack club eights. But
the fashion in which the Huskies dis
posed of their opposition on the Hud-
son clearly established either or both
of Washington's entries as Olympic
favorites.
First Husky Victory Since 1926.
WASHINGTON'S big boat the
Nv first Husky varsity to come swing
ing home in front at Poughkeepsie
since Al Ulbrickson, now the head
coach, stroked the victorious 1926
crew, looked as though it was prac.
ticing for the Olympics in the varsity
race.
In the words of coach who was il
position to view the proceedings with
an unprejudiced eye-Charley White
side, late of Harvard-Washingt
''rowed superb 1000 meters on tor
of high paddle" He meant, il
short, that the Huskies coasted fol
about two and three quarters miles
rating themselves well off the pace ant
then put on the pressure to win goinl
away in the last mile and a quarter.
Ever since 1926 Washington ha
either blown up in the last mile o.
trailed to such an extent, up to tina
point, that it could not overhaul th
pacemakers. The Huskies, secont
three times and third on four othe
occasions, got the reputation for no
being able to take it" after leavin,

Current Tour Is Disastrous,

HARRIS fear is that Lewis, his
phenomenal early success having
abated, will get down" Buddy, a
high-strung youth, might well do it,
Harris is afraid, and, therein prob
ably lies the National leaders great
est bugaboo at present This has
been a disastrous trip for Buddy 50
far. In Detroit, while the Griffs
scored clean sweep. he went to bat
13 times and made only two hits. In
Cleveland he Jared worse, making
only a single hit-a tainted looper
over the infield-in IA trips to the
plate. His batting average for the
tour now Is Ill.
The slump of the kid, who for a
time ran among the American League
batting leaders, has been going on for
quite a period. Lewis has not been
hitting since the end of May, but
Harris was willing to believe that,
perhaps, Buddy was retaining his
complex about Griffith Stadium. Last
Fall, when he came up for q trial
with the Nationals, the kid failed to
hit at all in the home park. Natu-
rally, when he met with so much sue
cess early this year in out-of-town
parks. Buddy might have figured that
Griffith Stadium. although made to
order for hitter Of his type, just
was not his batting ground.
Bats .1S5 in June.
RUT Buddy has not been hitting
anywhere since this month be-
gan. In the last % games played by
the Nationals, the North Carolina
prodigy has gone to bat 90 times and
made only II hits for puny average
of .185. This hardly has helped the
Nationals, although Buddy might well
take a rest. When nearly everybody
else on the club was going poorly at
the start of the campaign. Buddy's
prolific hits kept the club in the run
ming.
Regardless of whether Lewis has
earned the right to undergo slump.
there is no denying but that his fail
ure to keep hitting has hurt the club.
if not Buddy's individual morale.
Lewis is a big factor in the attack
of the Nationals but his work during
the current month, in addition to
producing only a .185 average, has
embraced the scoring of only runs
in % games and the batting across
of only half dozen scores.
CfilI NFaafsvw Nall Wall
&TRANGE as this sounds, Harris
might not be worrying so much
about Lewis If the kid merely was go
ing through streak Of popping up
and grounding out. This would be
bad enough. Of course, but Buddy
has been meeting the ball squarely
on the nose frequently during this
trip. In Cleveland he hammered the
daylights out Of the ball. Each time,
without fail. his smashes were hit
directly at an inflelder or outfielder.
His lone hit was one Of the most
poorly hit balls he propelled during
the entire trip.
If the current slump doesn't get
him down, Buddy Lewis ought to be
quite a ball player He apparently
needs q rest now and then to recover
his strength, but what with Buddy
Myer out Of the game and Cecil
Travis playing the outfield regularly.
Harris Is in no position to give Lewis
a few days on other than by natural
means Of rain. 1t Is not q case Of

tons wantta play, not even In the
