MAY RETURN TO TERPS' LINEUP IN TEN DAYS
Goes TO
Cards

ST. LOUIS, Oct 8 G.N.S0.
Lon Warneke, ace righthand
pitcher of the Chicago Cubs and
considered one of the best hurlers
in the National League, has been
obtained by the st. Louis Car
dinals in exchange for Jimmy
Ripper" Collins, slugging first
baseman, and Leroy Parmelee,
right-hand pitcher, it was an
nounced at Cardinal headquarters
today.
The deal was a straight player
transaction with no cash involved,
it was stated.
The trade was completed during
the recent World Series in nego-
tiations between Branch Hickey,
vice president of the Cardinals
and Clarence Rowland, represent
ing the Cubs, Sam Breadon, presi-
dent Of the Cardinals, announced.
The deal is regarded as the first
step to be taken by the st. Louis
Cardinals to strengthen their
weak hurting corps.
The trade was Straightway
player exchange" Breadon said.
Il feel that we received the better
end of the bargain and that War
neke will pitch us to the National
League pennant next year."
Warneke's record this year was
Is victories and 13 losses.
Parmelee was obtained by the
Cardinals from the Giants last
year, in the deal which sent Bur
CESS Whitehead to New York.
Hampered by sore finger, which
forced him out of the game tenn
porarily during the middle Of the
season. the big ex-Giant had a
$3.50 record in 1886, winning II
and losing IL. He reached 4 peak
early in the season when he
pitched brilliant Thinning hurl-
ing duel against Carl Hubbell, of
the Giants, and won.

Batting Marks Shrink

Look at the batting averages in
the composite box score If you
haven't already scrapped it!
The thing am trying to tell
you that detracted from consistent
greatness OF either team is best
mirrored in the cold figures.
Since when has Gehrig become
a .292 World Series hitter? It
seems to me in his combined four
World Series previous to 1885 he
clouted for the creditable and as
founding average Of .422.
Rolfe and DiMaggio, who finally
came out of the series with repre-
sentative batting marks, needed
the sixth game to do so, each get
ting three hits therein. Lazzeri'S
three hits in the final game also
somewhat cancelled his dragging
hitting record.
OF course, all Of these compari-
sons simply go to prove that base
ball is never a cut and dried is
sue. The day it becomes a sport
where outcomes can be too nearly
predetermined, it will cease to re-
tain its great hold on the Ameri-
can mind.
The Giants shortcomings which
made them look something less
than Goliaths did not seem so
glaring to this onlooker as did
those of the YankS.
The Giants just did struggle
home under the wire, whereas the
Yankees had been home three full
weeks.
One sort of expected the Yanks
to assert themselves without the
necessity of six games, so marked
seemed their preseason strength
compared to that Of the hard-put
Giants.
Perhaps was asking too much
of the Mccarthy Marauders. Per
haps I couldn't get out of my mind
the IL straight World Series games
the Yankees of 1927, '28 and '32
had won.
Finally, both the Giants and
Yankees must rebuild somewhat if
they expect to occupy roles next
season similar to those they es-
sayed this season.
Lazzeri must be near the end Of
the trail.
He went largely on momentum
and fighting spirit this season.
He's plainly a couple of steps
behind his old form, but the old
fighting heart is there. He was
positively grim in much of the last
series.
Terry is through as a player and
Jackson nearly so.

You naturally look for major
league ball players to recognize
and seize opportunities, acquitting
themselves determinedly in the
face of golden chances.
Why, I talked with some old
Giant and Yankee players who
years before had worn the flan-
nels of the contesting teams, and
they shook their heads dubiously
at the way both teams slipped up
in what is commonly called the
clutches, excepting of course in
those two big Yankee victories.
The series was fraught with fall
tering pitching and hitting. Hub
bell, in the first game, Fftzslm'
mons the loser of the second game
and Pearson hurled the best hall

men and delivered their stuff.
In betwixt there was a constant
parade of huIrlers between the bull
pen, the box and the showers. The
strongest forte of the Giants. their
pitching and defensive strength,
were found wanting perSiStently.
Almost as persistently the Yam
kee bats collapsed. In two innings
in as many games, they got them
swinging and lived up to the ad-
vertisements. In several critical
stages of the other four games,

Bv KIRK MILLER

In retrospect both the victo-
rious Yankees and vanquished
Giants were mediocre contend
ers for baseball's greatest
glory, except in spots.
I can think of q dozen World
Series teams that reflected
more accurately what the av-
erage fan looks for in his ideal
teams.
A perusal of my scorecards for
the six games reveals an amazing
number of missed scoring opportu-
mites by both teams ms-occasions
with one and two and often three
men on bases where a hit and sew
eral times long fly, would have
turned the tide of battle.

At $3.50 this young man, who was

Suthern, a virtuoso possessing all

TRENTON, N. j., April "a
(UP). - The ragged hunger
army" Of men, women and chill
dren who marched into the capt.
toll last Tuesday and settled down
for a siege, celebrated a victory
last night with stew and coffee in
the senate chamber.
The victory was a special ses-
sion of the assembly called for to-
day to provide adequate relief for
the needy.
The tattered army intends to
stay and see the job well done.
In a litter of bread crusts, cigaret
butts and old newspapers, they
camped and announced their in
tention of staying until hell
freezes over" to get their de-
mands. They burlesqued sessions
of the senate while they waited.
Armed police watched them,
but no move was made to evict
the "souatters." So far, the Off
cial policy has been one of pa
thence and compassion. Chief of
Police Norman Collard asked ad-
vice from Attorney General David
T. Wilentz and the state house
commission. He was cautioned
not to use force, and to let the
unemployed remain for the time
being.
They call themselves the "Work-
ers Alliance of New Jersey" They
have demanded that both houses
of the legislature agree on a meas
ure to raise funds for emergency
relief, to relieve municipalities OF
the burden which was thrust upon
them a week ago when state funds
ran out.
After an exchange of kilograms
with Gov. Harold G. Hoffman, DR..
Marcus w. Newcomb, speaker OF
the house, announced that. the as
