in striking contrast to several in
the past. The strong all-star cir

Pricci as president for the second
year. Dave Burrows was chosen
vice president and Ben McAlwee

At Stadium
Sept. IS
BY SID KATZNELL

Under the flood lights of Grit
fifth Stadium Friday, September
.18, the Italian and Jewish All.
Stars will collide in baseball
game that should provide thrills
and spills.
The Italian and Jewish athletes
are best of friends off the field
of sports, but once they trot on
the field their friendship turns
to earnest rivalry.
Nothing would give either team
more satisfaction than to emerge
victorious on September IL so
great is their desire for victory.
Both mines are comprised of ball
players worthy of being called ball
players. The Italians point to Ed
Cinotti, Frank DiNenna, Vic Gauz-
"a, ir., Johnny Micro, Frank Ba-
roni, AL Frat, Joe Pusateri, Carl
Givoanetti, Pepco Barry, Joe
Freschi, Joe Tucci, Mario GREGG"
rio, Charlie Cuozzo, Joe Crisaful,
Art Bolti, Joe Cicala and Tony
Mastromarino.
Sam Scogna is handling the
business end for the Italians, while
Ed Cinotti, who is considered one
of the finest fielding shortstops
in this mans city, will run the
team when it once steps on the
diamond.
The Jewish Stars will pick their
starting 1ine11n from the following
players: Harry Basin, Nausbaum,
Ed Lisensky, Ed Miller, Cody
Shapiro, Benny Schneider, Benny
Bookoff, Jimmy Cohen, Jake Fra
din. william Silverman, Len AS
kins, Bernie ASkins, Arnold Heft,
Doc Driefus, Willie Wolfe and
Ellis Goodman.
The team will be managed by
t'Tank" Nitowitz and Phil Sykes,
two capable handlers of ball play
ers, both having years of expert
ence in back of them.
A goodly portion OF the pro-
ceeds will be turned over to the
Police Boys Club and the Italian
and Jewish charities. Tickets are
now on sale at Atlas Sport Shop,
Spauldings, Sports Center and I'M

Yet more latent strength is
found for the White Sox in the
case of Mccullough, Kansas City,
leading the league with % triples,
while Pitcher Whit wyatt has won
II and lost 6 for the same club
with 1873 strike outs to his credit.
Manager Steve O'Neill will be
giving a severe tryout down in
New Orleans next spring to Out
fielder Godfrey Heath, who has
been burning up the Middle At

Heath leads the loop with 1872 hits,
141 runs, 1872 runs batted in, IS
doubles, IL triples and 20 home
runs for batting average Of 1888.
The Indians have trio of other
300-hitting outfielders coming
along in Carson of Toledo, and
Gleeson and Henrick Of New Or
leans. However, these may simply
be excess baggage, as Averill, Vos-
mix, Weatherly and Campbell
show no signs Of bowling out Of
the picture.
The Red Sox will also be doctor
ing up team next season which
has been nothing short of a dis
appointment this year. Buster
Mills is coming along from
Rochester with a batting mark
close to $40. He is an exceptional
extra base hitter and his runs
driven were last recorded at 1914.
First BaSeman Dahlgren has done

chance of Bottoms ever returning
here as a ball player, as the head
man of the Washington club has
no use for an employe who is a
gutter of any sort. Too, it has
more than likely killed any chance
Of Bottoms being snapped up by
some other club.
He is not a good enough catcher,
albeit he has enjoyed spots Of
good hitting, to make him a tenn
peramental risk or a financial
one, either.
The fact he was a holdout un-
til mid-seaSon in 1884 has not
been forgotten either by Owner
Griffith or the other clubs that
might otherwise be interested in
him were he able to stand
hitched.
Meanwhile not even the most
credulous fan believes that the
likable and routund Irish Frank
Hogan can be relied upon by the
Griffmen next year as a day-in-
and-day-out first string catcher.
Much as "Shanty'S" efforts on
the ball field amuse the fans, they
know his very weight is against
his weathering an entire cam
paign, despite the fact he put in
one month Of acceptable work
when the GriffS drafted his serv-
Ices from Albany to finish out last
season.

AT THE RACES

The Santa Claus Of racing
should stake every regular horse
player at the Fair Grounds, Trop-
ical Park and Santa Anita to a
$40 straight ticket on their choice
to win the first race of Christmas
Day. But even if he did, I'm
wondering what percentage OF
them would wind up the day with
any profits, the hoSseS being that
hard to beat.
Yet the best day I ever had at
a winter track was on Christmas
at the Fair Grounds, an even 35
years ago, playing every winner
of the six. (And let any old
timer now in New Orleans hold

JOY expounding the methods Of
fascist leadership. He spoke with
evident gusto.
But while Father Coughlin's de-
finite acceptance of fascism as his
definite course was the most i'm

interview other admissions of far

Earlier in the day he had told
a reporter that with the balance
of power in Michigan held by his
National Union for Social Justice,
he had ordered the group to quit
