'POPPING3z
orr" xt}1 J ton!!!:a Sa& f

A FEW days later. when the Nation
ais were plying their wares in
Detroit, little Walter Miles narrowly
escaped a similar injury. Walter was
subbing for Bolton when Gerald
Walker of the Tigers came racing
into home plate. Walker saw he was
out, so he chose to collide with WAL
ter. This impact was met with un-
certain success. Miles was knocked
off his feet but he held on to the ball.
Uncle Clark's indignation reached a
new high when. just the other day. Eric
McNair rammed into Bill Dickey in
Boston and knocked the big catcher
for loop.
DiCkey will be confined TO a
hospital for 10 more days and
will be out of the game indefi-
nitely. He was lucky to escape
without having kidney pune
tured.
Griff is determined to prevent SIM
liar accidents. it seems. Although the
meeting of the major leagues won't
come up until next Winter, the old
gent with the white gable eyebrows has
his argument all lined up and it
features Ia, unfairness to the guys
who get the worst of collisions and (b),
economic unfairneSs to owners of ball
clubs.
Evening star., 1936-05-28

10y THE poignant process Of
- oh-ing and ah-tng over ac-
counts OF three consecutive
- and recent near tragedies
centering on the home plates of the
American League, Uncle Clark Griffith
has succeeded In working himself up
into a fine state of indignation. The
Old Fox, z'matter of fact, has turned
reformist and when Winter rolls
around and the swivel chair brigade of
the major leagues convenes in meet
ing Uncle Clark intends to do a
little fist-pounding in behalf of a
new and radical rule to cover close
plays on the base paths.
The Old Fox's idea, briefly, is to
promote a rule enforcing base runners
to slide into the bags and into home
plate when there Is a close play on
them.
incorporated in this same
rule will be a paragraph to the
effect that infielders and catch
ers will be prohibited from
blocking the bases.
The penalties would be similar in
severity. If a base runner, instead
of sliding. collided with an infielder
or a catcher he would be called out,
regardless of whether he beat the
ball or knocked it out of the opposing
players paws. If an infielder or a
catcher blocks a base. the runner
automatically will be called safe.
Evening star., 1936-05-28
Bottoms Injury Started II.

THE Old Fox's indignation first be-
came apparent during the middle
of this month while he was smoking
one of his fiat stogies and following
the progress of his Nationals in a
game at Chicago. Things we're going
along nicely until Mr.. Tony Piet Of
the White Sox was caught by the pro-
verbal mile in q play at home plate.
Instead of permitting himself to be
tagged out, however. Mr.. Piet brought
his large and bony knee up and into
Catcher Cliff Bottoms side.
The little receiver promptly
went into forgiveable tailspin,
dropped the ball, and was car
ried of the field. Mr.. Piet was
called safe and the White Sox
won, 13 to IL.
Losing the ball game hurt, of course,
but losing Mr. Bolton hurt even more.
Cliff was out of the game for two
weeks and was lucky to get back as
quickly as he did. For a while it was
feared that Bolton had sustained a
fracture of the ribs or serious internal
injuries.

.HURLER TO WORK
TWICE IN ; DAYS
Buck Will Start Against
Yanks Saturday After
Battling AS.
BY FRANCIS e. STAN.

~ UCK NEWSOM, the more or
x less irrepressible pitching ace
Of the Nationals, is likely to
realize long and earnestly ex-
pressed mound wish during the next
few days and Developments probably
will mean much to the Washington
ball club.
AS the Harrismen today faced the
Athletics in their first double-heade
of the season Newsom was to be on
the slab in the opener. Tomorrow the
Griffs have an off day, but on Satur-
day, when they invade Yankee
Stadium for the traditional Memorial
day twin bill, Mr.. Newsom again is
likely to be throwing.
The schedule outlined-two games
in three days-is the toughest kind
OF a program. 1t is almost unheard
of these days, but Blushing Buck never
figured he was an ordinary workman.
FEom the day he first pulled on a
Washington monkey suit year ago
this week Newsom always has declared
he was at his best when toiling on
an -third-day basis.

Girl is Persistent.

nENGIS had a substantial lead ap-
preaching Capitol Hill last year
so Pat walked up. Several years prior
he collapsed soon after negotiating it.
The Marathon Committee is pre-
pared for a stiff argument from Doro-
thy RAIDER, the Hopewell, Va, girl who
is bent upon competing Saturday. Mel
Sheppard, chairman of the Long
distance Running Committee of the
National A. A. u, has ruled her out,
but she's sent in an entry just the same
and will come to Washington prepared
to run. She has the moral support of
DR.. William N. Parker of Richmond,
chairman of the A. A. U. Registration
Committee of the A. A. u, who in
structed her to make formal applica-
tion for place in the race. Dorothy
has shown to advantage in several dis
tance races with men, but never has
footed the marathon distance of 26
miles 385 yards.
I'm confident could beat lot of
the men in your race" she writes. She
has received no encouragement from
this department.
Johnny Hayes, the last American to
win an Olympic marathon, is due in
today or tomorrow from New York.
He no longer competes. Hayes won
memorable victory in the London
Olympics of 1908

THERE seems no keeping those
New York Giants out of the
National League lead for any
- length of time, despite their
string of tough luck and the expert
predictions that they're due to crack
wide open any day.
just week after they last saw first
place, they were back on top again to-
day deadlocked with the gashouse
gang from st. Louis and boasting a
winning streak that reached five
straight yesterday with Carl Hubbell's
mastery of his troublesome Brooklyn
Dodger jinx.
Just to give the whole major league
situation more distinctly metropoli-
tan air, the New York Yankees-an-
other outfit for which the experts have
given little hope in the pennant chase
were sporting game-and-a-half
lead in the American loop, with two
thirds of the Crucial series with the
Boston Red Sox behind them.
