C-Men Win
Baseball
Cr0wn
BY SID KATZNELL

Bureau of Investigations G-Men
are not only the pride of the
United States detective forces, but
they possess one of the foremost
unlimited baseball teams in the
Nations Capital.
Yesterday the Federal under
cover men defeated a fighting
Miller Furniture nine, 2 to /, to
win the city weekday baseball
championship before 5000 fans on
the South Ellipse.
Fully aware that they were
facing a team that would break
their necks in order to emerge
victorious, the G-Men got busy in
the very first inning and scored
two runs which won the ball game.
Willis Fisher, ShortStop and lead
off man, worked Lefty" Stevens
for a walk. He advanced to Sec
ond on Walter Morris perfect
bunt.
Then Pepco Barry, one of the
best outfielders on the SandlotS,
drove a three-bagger into deep
center field, scoring Fisher. Barry
scored a few seconds later when
Eddie Cinotti, usually steady in
the clutches, messed up Center
Fielder Sugrue's relay. The G-Men
managed to fill the bases before
the inning was concluded, but with
two out, Herman Xander, sturdy
catcher, hoisted to Tommy Nolan
in right field.
The MillerS also registered all
their tallies in the first frame,
which was one. Nolan was hit by
a pitched ball by Dick Nichols, G.
Mems starting hurler. Cinotti
went down swinging.
But Lyman McAboy, the aSsiS-
tant boxing instructor at Maryland
University, singled to left, sending
Nolan to second. Fred Wahler
singled to center scoring Nolan.
Nichols put on the steam and
stopped the Millers dead.
Lefty" Davidson saved the day
for the Federalmen in the fifth
inning. He relieved Nichols with
the bases loaded and with the ever
dangerous Lefty" Stevens at the
plate.
After working a two and three
count on Stevens, Davidson famed
Lefty" on sharp breaking curve
thus ending a real threat. Stevens
pitched a fine game for the losers,
the first being his only bad inning
if you can call that a bad inning.
He allowed seven hits and struck
out four.
The Washington times., 1936-09-29

leagues, but he gets from first
to third, or from second to the
plate fast enough. He breaks
fast on a ball, and as 1 said,
he plays the hitters."
"Then you would say that
Lazzeri still holds his full base
ball valueS?" we pressed.
Look at the records" came
the reply. "TOny is hitting
under 300, but he goes right
ahead driving in his 100 runs
for the year. You know, that
means a lot. There are a lot of
ball players who hit 800 or bet
ter, but they lack the fire in the
pincheS that seems to be a part
of TOny'S makeup. That's some
thing that either you have or
you lack.
TONY AIDS CROSETTI
frankie Crosetti is the talk
Of the league this year. Every
one will tell you that CrOSetti is
the best defensive short stop in
the American League. That is
true, and a great deal of the
credit for his improvement is
due to the coaching he has had
for five years from LaZZeri.
"TOny keeps up a running fire
of chatter" Mccarthy continued.
"You can't hear him in the
stands, but CrOsetti hears him
and plays ball that way. CrOSetti
does the same thing for Red
ROIfe."
"Will you win the series?"
we asked.
Certainly we WILL" Mccarthy
answered. "We're going into the
series to win. We have record
to uphold. We can't stop at a
dozen straight. Gotta make it
16."
At this point a friend from Buf
falo rushed up to shake hand!

The Washington times., 1936-09-29

"He always was doing some
thing, that Lazzeri," said one
of the surrounding group.
eyes, he is," responded Nc
Carthy. Especially in a ball
game. Out on that field he is
great"
How great do you consider
him." we asked.
ONE OF GREATEST
Zone Of the greatest in all
the history of baseball" came
the answer. "He is the best
man on picking up ground balls
in the game today"
"That includes Charley Gehr-
niger, of Detroit, whom many
think the best of the modern
day." Carthy continued.
"There are no bad hops to Tony.
He knows batters and he plays
them Just about right.
"Watch him over a season and
you'll realize just what he means
in a baseball game. When a
ball is hit, he goes for it and
plays it. He never backs up;
never plunges awkwardly. He
plays the ball SO that nearly
every chance looks easy.
"TOny is called the Tnfield
Fox and there's something in
that name. He senses a play,
and when a ball is hit to the
Outfield, he is always in position
for the play; always in posi-
tiOn to direct a play.
"I've spent my life in baseball,
and I've seen them all in the
last rs years. 1 rank LazZeri
with Napoleon LajOie, and the
world ranks the big Frenchman
at the top Of all second base
men,"
HAS SLOWED PERCEPTIVELY
HAS Tony slowed up percep-
lively this season." we asked Nc
Carthy.
"NO, he hasn't" came the
ready rejOinder. "TOny is not
as fast as he used to be when
he first came into the major

the finish of the week.
The first to go, so the profes-
sional gamblers say, will be the
world series betting record, which
is supposed to wind up under the
wash stand with an estimated total
of S25,00O,0O0 in wagerS through
out the nation.
That's a pretty fair sum Of
money to be sending in on the
antics of couple of five-cent ball
teams but no more battling than
the tip this morning on Mr.. l..
McGooferty Gomez and the fact
that ticket sharpshooters will con-
sent to accept $50 for a strip of
tickets, valued at sixteen.
Odds Favor YankS
It is also possible to stand all
night outside the Polo Grounds at
no cost at all and hotel guests who
came in here fancying a room with
bath found it simpler to compro-
mise on a room with bed. But, out
side of that, the situation is being
handled Superbly and it's great to
be in a town so broad-gauge and
magnificent that a thing like the
world series makes no impression.
It's making so little this morn
ing that approximately half OF that
twenty-five million, according to
Jack Doyle, is being bet inside the
city limits. Mr.. Doyle says the
odds are still 13 to 10 if you want
to take the Giant short end but
that the price was narrowing to-
ward 6 to S, what with the back
injury of Monte Pearson, who had
been expected to pitch the third
game for the Yankees.
Pearson again will work out with
his club when it goes through the
motions at the Polo Grounds to-
day, while the Giants are over at
the Yankee stadium. But no one
seriously considers Monte in the
running at this point.
Gomez Regains Stuff
The man of the hour, indeed, is
said to be L. Meg. Gomez who,
they say, is almost certain to be
named by the Yankees to pitch the
opening game tomorrow against
Carl Hubbell. Until recently, Mr..
Gomez had difficulty in getting
the side out before darkness but
they do say that Mr.. Gomez, with
his low stuff, is just the guy to
stop OFT, Terry and Moore. If
that turns out to be true, he will
have stopped the whole ball club.
Barring the above three, the
Giants are not a team that hits
the ball on the nose. It hits it on
the eyebrow-and waits for Hub
bell to do everything but cover the
left field foul line.

Portable score.
Not that the master OF the
brood, Bergman, doesn't custom
arily have teams which move
smartly about the field. No, but
this years crew is showing a con-
fidence and a class which leads
one to believe that here is a team
which has gone big-time and in
tends to remain so.
Heads Are High
The first and prime requisite
of any team, football or otherwise,
is to play a heads-up game. The
c. U. boys this year have the bit
in their teeth and it is inspiring
to note their esprit de corps.
The team exudes this fine quail
ity Of going about its business
which is so heartening to its be-
holders. It has been an outstand-
ing characteristic of the preseason
practices at Brookland and I be-
lieve it foreshadows a brilliant
season ahead.
Although the Cardinals have a
good husky gang which will aver
age pretty close to 1875 pounds, it
has not been particularly appar-
ent Bergman is going to rely any
more on horsepower than he is on
speed and alertness.
Catholic University is equipped
to either throw it's force against
opposing lines or resort to the
more open and spectacular game.
Kicking and passing expertness
fairly eXude from the backs and
have brought many an "Oh!"
from the sideline spectators at
the September workouts.
MakOfSke and Foley
That big Bob Makofske, a cinch
at the fullback post, who won the
Duquesne and North Carolina
State games last season by kick
ing in the mud, has been doing his
old magic with his toe. Speck
Foley, too, is booting the wind out
of the leather as he did when the
spiral travelled 78 yards before his
toe last year against Detroit.
Max Brinkman is consistently
getting both distance and direc-
tion out of his pedal efforts as is
