Ralph Clinton had some high

out for second base on the Eastern
High School Nine this year.
But he was as determined to
make 'em forget the man who
played second last year "or else. "
That man, lest we forget, was AL
Hebrew, who was so good in 1885
that he was a unanimous AllHigh
choice.
Clinton played acceptably in
every way, on the whole. His hit
ting was good enough and his
fielding, though loose in spots,
was as good as any of his East

Owen Continues
To Shine on
SdndIots
By SID KATZNELL

Years go by, but a familiar and
colorful figure continues to show
up the younger men cavorting
around the local candlots. He is
the veteran Lem owen, who has
seen Is years of baseball service.
For is years he performed mag
nificently on the District, Mary
land and Virginia sandlots, and
for 10 years he played with va
riouS first class minor league
teams.
A pitcher by trade, he was
used invariably in the outfield on
account of his hitting power,
owen has broken up quite a few
ball games with his timely blows.
Comes Through Again
Yesterday the veteran was called
upon to deliver in a pinch for his
latest team, the Treasury Depart
ment, in the U. S. Government
League, and he came through like
a true veteran.
1t was the last inning and a
run would mean victory for Treas
ury. Third Baseman Schneider
scratched a hit to the infield and
went to second on ShortStop Ben
ner's bunt. The situation was In
tense. Second Baseman Rudding
was approaching the plate, but the
Treasury manager waved him away
and called upon Owen. Lem let
two balls go by and then hit the
next pitch sharply to left, scoring
Schneider with the winning run.
The score was: Treasury and
Agriculture 2.
Another old timer as far as base
ball service is concerned, Bob
Lefty" Lyons turned in a neat
performance yesterday. Lyons
hurled and batted his G. P. o.
team to a 4-to-2 victory over PWA
in the Departmental League.
Lyons allowed seven scattered hits
and drove out a pair of timely hits
himself.

Coffey Sales is a real threat in
the Industrial League. Only last
week the Statesmen ended Heurich
Brewers streak in the league, and
yesterday they pounded out 18
hits to easily trim Swift and Com
pany, IL to 3. Joe Lefty" Sui
livan gave his opponents only six
hits. Lennie Roberts was the bat
ting hero for Coffey Sales with
four for four, including a home
run.
With Rally pitching effective
ball, Interstate defeated Federal
Commission, 8 to 4, in the Fed
eral AA League. Railey scattered
seven hits. Pitcher Printz, of the
opposition, connected for a round
tripper.
The Resettlement Green Belts
captured their seventh victory in
eight starts in the Federal A
League by betting Resettlement
Federals, IA to 5.
Behind the star pitching Of
Dixon, Pepco blanked Chestnut
Farms, II to 0, in the National

Kirk Miller Says:

any bargain and you can strut off
with the odd l per cent with their
blessing and the feeling of a bar
gain well made-for baseball.
Right here in Washington Uncle
Clark Griffith gets red in the face
when you suggest, for instance,
that waivers have been secured on
Monte Weaver. He can go into a
tantrum over any such breach of
baseball faith as to print that a
player is the victim of that
sharpest of all baseball scythes-
the old waiver.
"YOu fellers amt got no right
printing them stories on my
players" is his stock objection.
'sIt makes 'em dissatisfied, dis
consulate, melancholy, unhappy,
mOrOSe, detected and unable to
do their work."
AS if any player who was capa-
BILE of doing a lick of good work
would likely be the object of waiv-
ers, Mr.. Griffith! For shame, and
also fie. In fact, a couple Of fieS!
That baseball silence doesn't only
concern waivers, but other forms
of player manipulation and the
surest way to engender the icy
stare of baseball is to even hint
that possibly one of its hirelingS
is on the block. Here's baSeballS
reply to impudent reports who
sense trades:
Him? Why, no! Money
couldn't buy that fellow. He's
the key to my club. Where do
you get that stuff. Don't be de-
mOraliZing my ball club by print
ing anything like that. It's you
fellows that give us guys gray
hairS!"
Shoe On Other Foot
But let the shoe be on the other
foot. Let the baseball man want
particularly meaty game in which
his team is playing the champions
or prospective champions to be
well aired-now, that is the one
per cent baseball grants the press
the right to ballyhoo its big
Spectacles.
When baseball wants something
in the prints, that is one thing.
But, when the prints are looking
for something with which to stir
their readers, why that is a zebra
of another stripe, particularly
when a nice juicy player deal is
plainly on the horizon.
There's one on the horizon here,
my friends, but you'll have to wait
little for the details.
When baseball folks get to look
ing at you with blank Stares, that
is the time to look out for trade
zephyrS.
Besides, if Griff, with the profit
able season he's enjoyed so far,
what with Lewis and Powell and
Kress as attractions, together with
his other known resources, doesn't
buy some of the pitchers who can
be had and who are a darn sight
better than a lot Griff possesses,
then he'll be stabbing himself in
the gizzard.
For he hasn't bad ball club,
outside of his pitchers.
So help me!

PoWhoton Roof
Has Gala
Opening
By FRANCOIS

Doubtless, the most significant
event to transpire in the world Of
after dark since last we posted
you was last nights opening Of
the Powhatan Roof.
High above the tumult on the
Avenue, Pete Macias and his
bristling brood blended brass and
strings to the unquestionable en-
joyment of Manager Harnett'S
jubilant first nighters. Blended
brass and strings as only Pete can
blend them, according to the con-
sensuS of opinion as voiced
through the evening by veritable
horde of diplomats, congressman
and Semiofficials, who kept Ra-
mon and Tucker, the Powhatan'S
adept maitres d'hotel, in a con-
slant fret lest seats should not
be found for all.
Nor was it entirely Pete Macias.
More than a Sprig or so Of the
bouquet of success must be waved
beneath the respective noses OF
Pete's pair Of enterprising vocal
lists, Marty Rubin and Jimmy
Nichols, who brought the full
house time and again to their toes
with adequate renditionS of this
song or that.
It was a highly enjoyable af-
fair and promises an uninter-
rupted procession of nights. just
like it-says we.
And recommended to those
who in the past few months
have requested their favOrite
bands to do certain numbers
only to be met with refusal on
the grounds those numbers are
copyrighted and on the forbid
den list, is Moe Baer'S outfit at
the Rainbow Room in the Hotel
Hamilton.
Among the restricted pieces
which the management has sue
ceeded in letting down the bars
on are Body and Soul" Smoke
Gets in Your Eyes" Lover, Come
Back to Me-" Might and Day."
"Old Man River" and Avalon"
Moe and the boys are all set
how to wear these several IA
vorites right out to the last note
for you, and from the number of
requests he has received to date,
it can't be long before tunes like
the above will comprise the back
bone of Mr.. Baer'S nightly pro-
gram.
Benny Goodman, known better
in some localities as the King
of Swing" will spend tomorrow
evening at the Wardman Park
Hotel doing things to persons in
fecteI with the irresistible urge
to swing.
Yes, Benny, the bespectacled,
will be there in person with his
band which needs no mention
here. Carded with him are Helen
Ward, the swing Stylist, and Gene
Krupa, the drummer man.
So if you simply have to obey
that impulse, drop around tomor-
row night and see how long you
can sit still. There'll be others
there.
Benny was brought here, Incl
dentally, by the Delta Sigma M
crowd who are always doing some
thing like that and patting them
selves on their backs for it.
