Indians Sig n
0'Nei|| for 1897

NEW YORK, July 11.-Steve
O'Neill, manager Of the Cleveland
Indians Baseball Club, today ad-
mitted he had signed a contract
to manage the club in 1887.
The contract is for one year
only and carries an increase in
salary.
Alva Bradley, president of the
Indians, signed Steve after failing
to land Babe Ruth, to whom he
made an offer by longdistance
telephone when the Yankees were
last in Cleveland.
Once the offer was revealed
there was nothing left for Brad
ley to do but fire or rehire O'Neill.
He chose the latter course, which,
by the way, is the popular one
with the members of the club.
The players make no secret Of
the fact they prefer O'Neill to
Ruth and Bradley was made aware
Of the fact when the team was
last in Cleveland.

Beats Brewers

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, July IL
The contention that "all-star"
game doesn't mean anything be.
cause any organized team can de-
feat a disorganized team Of indi,
vidual stars, had been disproven
today.
A team of American Association
stars, led by Jack Winsett of Co

runs, whipped the pennant-chasing
Milwaukee Brewers, 8, to 5, here
yesterday. The All-Stars, managed
by DOME Bush, pilot of The Mime

II hits,
The Washington times., 1936-07-11

The manager of the Yankees
doesn't have to look any further
than his own rampaging club to
see what's going on about him.
Not that his own club is alone IN
going berserk at sight of anything
that bears even faintest reSem-
blance to a thrower. They're all
doing that, but the Yankees are
doing more of it and with results
that will be lasting.
Ahead of Former Pace
They are ahead of the pace they
maintained, when, as the original
"murderers' row." they set a flock
of offensive records. They could
even fall off slightly at bat and
send several chapters in the book
to the junk heap.
Maybe Mr.. Mccarthy hasn't
heard about it yet, but, for in
stance, his Yankees made 20 hits,
including Lou Gehrig'S 22nd and
23rd home runs, and one each for
Joe Di Maggie and Bill Dickey, in
beating the Cleveland Indians
yesterday, 10 to 0. Red Ruffing
pitched his third shutout and 18th
victory. while the Indians used
four pitchers.
Some more fancy hitting could
be found in the National League,
specifically in the game won by
the Philadelphia Phillies from
the Pittsburgh Pirates, 9 to 6.
Chuck Klein hit four home runs
to tie the record for the feat in
five trips to the plate, although
he required 10 innings. Ed Dele
hanty, Link Rowe and Lou Geh-
rig did it in nine frames.
YankS Increase Lead
The Yankee victory increased
their league lead by another full
game over the Detroit Tigers,
who succumbed against Washing
ton, 5 to 0. Buck Newsom
pitched the shutout, allowing
only one hit, a scratch single
by Burns in the third inning.
In the only other American
League game, the Chicago White
Sox beat the Boston Red Sox, 8
to 2, Kennedy hurting the seven
hit victory.
Other National League contests
found Boston scoring a 4-to-1 win
over Cincinnati and the Cubs
and Cards continuing their bat
tie for the lead.
The Cubs beat Brooklyn by 6
to 2 on Curt Davis neat hurting,

OF THE GRIFFS
By Frank buck" O'NeiII

There was q concentration Of
old ball players in back Of the
Detroit bench yesterday afternoon.
Lou Blue, former first baSeman of
the Detroit Tigers; Fritz Maisel,
former third baseman of the
Yankees, and later manager of
the Baltimore Orioles; George Mai
sci, his brother, and a good ball
player, and Bill Lamar, of the old
Yankees.
They can talk about Ruth'S
home runs from now until Tbs
eve, but one homer that Lamar
hit will always stand out in this
agents mind. 1t was hit at Platts-
burgh, N. Y, in August of 1917.
1t cleared the outfield and rolled
across the drill grounds to Off
GERS Row, a good quarter of a
mile from home plate.
Add to most annoying sayings:
There it is! there it Isl; contrib
uted by Del Baker, Detroit coach.
Regardless of what the officials
readings set forth yesterday, the
office thermometer at the bail
park registered 1T degrees in the
sun at noon. And that's as hot
as St. Louis or Medicine Hat.
Buck Newsom won his duel with
Eden Auker in the second inning.
He shuffled up to the front of
the box and slapped a Texas
Lacquer into left field, hitting
wtll-pitcheds curve.
Buddy Lewis opened the third
inning with a sharp single past
Johnny Burns, and before the fir
ing ceased the Griffs had piled
up three runs. A muff by Bill
Rogell aided no little in the
scramble.
The Washington times., 1936-07-11

Sorrell hit Chapman's bat with
a pitch and then tossed the ball
to first for an easy put out.
Newsom had a large time with
two of his pet Sparring partners.
He famed Goose Goslin in the
fourth inning and followed up
with a similar dose to AL Simmons
in the fifth. Both went down
swinging.
Johnny Burns made a sweet one
handed stop on a drive by Jona-
than Stone and completed the
putout unaSSiSted.
OsSie Bluege belted a line drive
to center field which AL Sim
mons caught without difficulty.
A base hit went glimmering when
Simmons closed his glove on the
ball.
When Buck Newsom lost con-
troll in the eighth inning and
filled the bases with passes to
Marvin owen. Pete Fox and Jo-Jo
White, Bucky Harris lost control
and kicked over the water bucket.
But the manager was up cheering
when KresS turned Burns bid
for a single into a double play.
The Tigers squawked no little
when Bill MCGOWAN gave Burns
the thumb in the eighth inning
on a double play that ended the
inning. It was close decision at
that.
Bucky Harris had Joe CaScarella
ready to step in and take the
Slace of Newsom in the eighth
inning. A lead of five runs looked
all right, but Harris was taking
no chances.
Come on, Gehringer: someone
has got to hit" yelled one of the
lady fans in the ninth inning, but
it didn't work out that way.

TO
BE Presented
by Men S Club
Capt. Irving Johnson Slated
to Talk Wednesday
at Caleb Mills.

Capt. Irving johnson, the man
who sailed the little two-masted
schooner Yankee" around the
world, is to speak in Caleb Mills
Hall Wednesday night, under the
auspices of the Mems Club Of the
Episcopal Church of the Advent.
With Capt. johnson on his me-
morable cruise was DR.. Rufus
Southworth of Cincinnati, brother
of the Rev. George S. Southworth,
rector of the Church of the Ad-
vent. DR.. Southworth sailed as
ships physician.
The young skipper is to illustrate
his talk with motion pictures, taken
with the camera that accompanies
him whenever he sails. In the lee
ture to be given here, "Circling the
Globe in the Yankee" the audience
will be shown scenes on the voyage
which began in Gloucester, Mass.
in November, 1888, and ended in
the same port year from the
following May.
Ship 81 Feet Long
Among the ports visited were
Panama, Pitcairn and the Gala
pages Islands, Siam, Singapore,
Java, Bali, the Indian Ocean
Islands, South Africa, st. Helena,
Devils Island, British Guiana, the
West Indies and Bermuda.
by the Netherlands government in
1897, is only I92 feet in length.
There are hunks for % people, lock-
er room for five tons of food, and
space for over 1000 gallons of fresh
water.
Since Capt. johnson returned last
May he has spent most of his time
cruising along the Maine coast. But
he is scheduled to sail on another
'round-the-world cruise in November
and expects to be back in May. 1888.

Besides his experiences with storms
and savage natives aboard the Yam
kee, Capt. Johnson went through a
wild October hurricane aboard Sir
Thomas Lipton's Shamrock V, when,
as mate, he helped sail her home
from the American races.
Much of the rigging was swept
away and the food was spoiled by
salt water. and so, to keep from
starving, the crew took the Sham
rock V back to England faster than
she ever sailed in race.
The local appearance of Capt.
Johnson has been arranged by Ly-
man B. Whitaker, chairman of the
program committee, and Mr.. South
worth.

Topic Is Announced

"Christ Jesus" is to be the sub
ject of the lesson sermon in all

Unto us child is born, unto us

Among the Bible citations which
comprise the lesson sermon is the
following: And when he had called
unto him his twelve disciples, he
gave them power against unclean
spirits, to cast them out, and to
heal all manner of sickness and all
manner of disease. These twelve
Jesus sent forth. and commanded
them, saying Behold, I
send you forth as sheep in the midst

the individual.
We recommend to ministers the
reading of E. Stanley Jones book,
THE Alternative to Communism, -
with view of finding in all sys-

tar in practice than the unre-
strained profit motive of our pres

Come to Industrial Cefiters
We believe the time has come in
our economic and social life when
there must be some kind of control
of industrial autocracy. We deplore
greatly the incident of an employer
in our state defying the highest
ideals of our industrial system by
declaring that the word "arbitra-
ton" is not in his vocabulary. We
believe that when arbitration is de-
MED the worker that martial law
in such instances is a Servile sur
render to FasciSm and is to be
summarily condemned.
We believe a continuing effort
must be made to maintain the
worker and his family on scale
adequate to meet his needs in the
field of health and honor and de-
cent living, and that to this end
there must be continued study and
effort on the part of the church
to lead the way in solving the
problem of more equitable dis
tribution of the wealth of the land
DepIore Child Labor
We greatly deplore the turn back
to child labor, and the decided re-
duction in wages and trend toward
increase of hours of labor that Is
apparent in our state and nation

We believe the recent beginnings
in the matter of economic secur-
ity for both old and young should
have the careful study and support
of the clergy and the church.
We urge ministers to belong to
labor unions wherever it is pos
sible and where they can assist in
bringing about better relations be-
tween classes We urge labor
unions to seek peaceable methods in
their efforts to negotiate with en-
ployers and that they give greater
consideration to interracial parity.
We urge upon the church and the
clergy a careful study of the con-
sumer's cooperative movement and
the Encouraging of co-operatives

In all these matters, we as min
