TAKES SIX FULL GAMES

Many of his victories were scored in the relief role, but that matters little for lately he has been start ing as we'll as finishing his share of games. Half dozen of his string were complete games. He has scored over every team in the circuit ex- cept the Browns The Red Sox, and the White Sox have each suf- fered three defeats at his hands.
 In 1892 Hadley earned the dubious honor of losing more games than any other pitcher in the American League. Toiling for Chicago and St. Louis, he was charged with 21 defeats. And if this were not bad enough the records added insult to injury when they showed that Bump topped all other hurlers in the mat ter of issuing passes-171 was the figure. The following year he suf- fered 20 defeats and again was the most generous hurler in the league when he gave Al bases on balls.

When Bump Hadley was tolling to get in shape last spring most ob- servers would watch his efforts shake their heads and walk away mumbling something or other A few spoke right up with the opin- ion that Manager Joe Mccarthy was loading a lot of dead wood on the Yankees. How could Hadley be of any possible help to New York after Washington had given him up? they asked He had been with the White Sox and the Browns and about the best that could be said of Bump was that he was a most willing worker.
 Mccarthy had other ideas. He felt certain that the veteran, if he would work hard enough to get in shape, would come in mighty handy as a relief pitcher. Most old-tim- CTS know all there is to know about pitching. Mccarthy reasoned - if Hadley was III shape to get out there and use that knowledge for just two innings at a time it might mean ball games to the Yankees.
 Hadley's bow in a Yankee uni form gave little promise of future usefulness. The Yankees were en- gazing the Athletics in a free-hit- ting game on April 20 when Bump was called into action. When the smoke cleared Hadley's record showed one loss and no victories. But from that time on until the middle of August Hadley did not suffer defeat He boasted a string of Il consecutive victories-the best in the American League this season -on August IS.

workouts each day. When the Cards are travelling, Paul works with the Browns.
 His efforts mainly are confined to keeping in good physical condi- tion. He shags flies in the out field but, makes no attempt to throw until his workout in the field is over. Then he losses for about 10 minutes to anyone who hap pens to be handy = just easy, straight balls. His trouble is not a new one. He had the same difficult ty two seasons ago, and rest re- stored his arm. He is confident that rest will do the trick again.
 He goes under treatments daily for the muscular trouble, which seems to have lodged in his shoul- der. He will not listen to any ad- vice that he forget baseball for the rest of the season. Paul insists that his arm is coming around and even talks of getting in there again before the season ends.
 He laughs at any suggestion that the Cardinals cannot win the pen nant without him. Of course, he is certain that it would be breeze for Frankie Frischs Gas House gang were he ready to step back and take his regular turn on the mound. They still have Dizzy and that means the pennant, as he sees it.
 Paul has no fear that his big brother is likely to suffer from over work. They can't overwork old Dig. according to Paul Dizzy will take them in his stride and win the pen nant for St. Louis. just like that, he warns all other contenders.

SPECULATION IS RIFE"

There may have been valid req sons why so much was made of this event. If so, the White House preferred to leave those reasons to the imagination, for it made no comment.
 Republican speculation went a long way It played with the word me 1,ssary," on which so much seemed to hinge. Did MT Nor genthau mean the budget could be balanced without new taxes, or did he merely mean increases would be unwise now in spite of the de- ficit?
 Was th,e White House meeting wholly divorced from politics, and was it fully legitimate action on the part of responsible admin istration to reassure business at time of economic upturn?
 Probably the answer to this last question does not matter greatly as far as the practical consequences are concerned. In campaign year it is to be expected that political in- terpretations will be applied to the acts of the candidates, however pure they may be.
 It is safe to say at least that what happened at the White House has greatly aroused the interest of the public in the tax issue, and that much more will be heard of that issue from now on.
