been a simple chance for Bluege
had Kuhel stayed on the bag.

OCCAl a OllAAJlC 4OI 11A0N6O
had Kuhel stayed on the bag.
Usually very wild, Newsom yield
ed only four walks. Three Of these
came in succession to ill the bases
in the eighth, and only a fast
double play, Kress to Kuhel, kept
Detroit from scoring.
Louis Norman Newsom is begin
ming to figure it just isn't in the
books for him to enter baseballs
hall of fame. For the one-hitter
against Detroit was the second
game in two years that saw Buck
thrown back after almost reaching
the goal In September, 1884, while
hurting for the st. Louis Browns,
! he pitched hitlesS ball for nine in
nings against Boston. He was beat
en- 2-1 in the tenth on two walks
and a single by Roy johnson.
Johnson's hit, Newsom recalls, was
an easy roller that took an I'M
accountable high bounce over Short
stop Alan Strange's head
The victory over Detroit was
Newsom's eleventh win of 1886,
against seven losses. Thus far Buck
is having his best season in the
majors. Never before has he won
more games than he lost with st.
Louis, Brooklyn, Chicago and Wash
ington.
Ever ready to pop off" at the
slightest provocation, Newsom VOW
ed at spring training camp he'd
win Is games this year. He may
yet do it-but it will take plenty
of hustling down the stretch.

SPORT SLANTS

The st Louis Cardinals seem to
be having their troubles staying
around the head of the National
League parade these days Manager
frankie Frisch is having headaches
with Paul Deans sore shoulder and
Dizzy's sore head. About the only
bright spot in the picture is the
fast pace Joe Medwick Is setting
both at the plate and in the field
Jersey Joe has been pacing Ma
tional sluggers with an average
around the 800 mark. In the little
matter of driving in runs Medwick
leads by a comfortable margin.
The sturdy star is having a great
year in the outfield just about
the best of his flashy career. In 30
games he handled 181 putouts and
nine assists without an error. Then
he was charged with an error when
his throw got away from Colbert
in the recent series with the Brook
lyn Dodgers. Half the season is a
long time to go without being
charged with single miscue.
Fig Leaf His Protection
That talkative veteran and the
Dizzy Dean of the Am eric a n
League, Buck Newsom of the Wash
ington Senators, can be depended
upon to pop with new idea every
now and then. Here's his latest
stunt:
Big Buck credits a fig leaf with
keeping him cool as, under 105-
degree heat in Washington July 10,
he shut out Detroit with single
hit, SO.
It's all very simple the way
Newsom explains it in few thou
sand well-chosen words. Talking
like a writer, Buck tells how
cotton pickers slip fig leaves under
their straw hats to keep cool. In
South Carolina Newsom picked cot
ton as youngster, and the fig leaf
stunt worked to perfection.
Going into the Senators dress
ing room before the game, Newsom,
having torn a leaf off plant
nearby, informed his teammates
that it would bring him victory.
Nothing keeps you cool like a fig
leaf under your hat" he announced
as the other players jeered.
Newsom lost IA pounds that day
under the hottest sun in which a
game has been played during this
campaign. Nevertheless, he insists
he felt as cool as the proverbial
cucumber, thanks to the fig leaf.
The Irony OF 1t.
But for an error of omission by
First Baseman Joe Kuhel, Newsom's
one-hit game might well have been
a no-hitter. Irving BURNS, Detroit
first baseman, sent one OF New
SONS pitches scooting along the
ground between first and second.
Second -Baseman Ossie Blueg e
sprinted after it, So did Kuhel.
The ball bounced off Kuhels glove,
past Bluege, for hit. Overeager-
ness on Kuhels part allowed hit
on what apparently would have
