But do it before Saturday night.
A Grand Game
This annual game which, in good
weather or bad, always packs the
huge arena on Chicago's lake front
is truly a magnificent spectacle
and a splendid sporting event.
When it was initiated four years
ago, all expert opinion had it that
the professional team would be
much too good for the college boys.
There were obvious reasons. The
professionals were trained as a
team, had played together the year
around before and knew their for
nations, whereas the college boys
were recruited from all sections of
the country and had insufficient
time to practice together. The pro-
fessionals were older, more exper-
fenced, heavier and more rugged
and they were playing for their
bread and butter They made their
living from football and naturally
they had every incentive to try to
prove the professional show had
better football than the college
show. These were all convincing
arguments but, strange to say,
they were not substantiated by the
actual play.
In the first game the College
boys outplayed the professionals
by wide margin, although the
score was to 0. In the second
game the pros DID have a little
better of the scoring, TO 0, but
the margin was not great enough
to discredit college football. And
last year it was 7 to in a game
in which the college side had all
the better Of the first half and
might have done as well in the Sec
ond half If they had not gone back
to the field so overconfident that
they became careless.
Honor and Fun
It is, of course, an honor for any
player to be elected to the college
squad in a national poll that draws
millions Of votes and, apart from
the honor, 1t is a lot Of fun. The
boys are taken to Chicago, royalty
entertained, submitted to the best
coaching available. thrust forward

most colorfm spectacles in the
world of sport and permitted to

a cold, rainy spring.
Red started by playing semi
pro ball. He played every day,

pitcher. he can hit. Many time,
when the ball game is on the
fire. Joe Mccarthy will beckon to
the big red-head and send him up
there as pinch hitter. He wins
ball case in both boxes-the
pitchers and the batter's.
Do the two missing toes hand
cap Red? He says no. He had
almost forgotten about them, IN
faC%, until last fall. 1t was the
day before the first game OF the
World Series between the Yankees
and the Giants.
The Yankee dressing room was
tense. Mccarthy paced the floor,
trying to decide which of his
pitchers he would throw as a
sacrifice to the Lions next day.
The Lions were named Hubbell,
Hubbell and Hubbell.
Mccarthy turned away from a
window, faced a ring OF news
paper men, took his cigar out OF
his mouth and spoke one word:
"Ruffing!"
That meant, of course, that
Rufing would open for tn e
Yankees.
Well, he started and he lost. He
ran up against Hubbell on one
of those days when the screw
ball was breaking sharp and hard.
Nobody beats Hubbell on day
like that. But that was last year
and Ruffing is new man.
And when Mccarthy has to
name his World Series starting
pitcher this fall you can bet your
bottom dollar that Red will get
the call again.

Johnny Murphy'S Relief Hurting

five years of seasoning at Albany,
st. Paul and Newark made good
with the Yanks in 1884. Until this
season he had won 33 games and
lost 18 in years of major league
work, mostly in relief roles. His
record this season is IL victories
and 3 defeats. He's won all OF his
games but one in relief roles, and
plenty of them haven't been soft
touches. He was tossed in on num-
erous occasions when it looked
like the cause was lost.
His pitching forte is curve
ball. What makes it effective Is
that he isn't afraid to throw it In
a clutch. He's been known to
throw it would the count three
balls and no strikes. He studies
the hitters religiously.
1T seems to me all pitchers
would be better if they studied the
hitters more" said Murphy. II

I keep tabs on every hitter"
Murphy's No. jinX is Harland
Cliff, st. Louis Browns third
baseman. Charlie Gehringer, IT.

Johnny a lot of woe.
When Cliff comes up Crosetti
hollers to me Here's that bad wolf
again. How much?' And we always
make little bets as to what I will
do with Cliff. Gehringer worries
me because he never goes after a
bad pitch but I'm in the same boat
with all the other pitchers with
him."
Johnny is Irish through and
through. He's married to a girl of
English-IriSh extraction. They
have a 3-year-old son, Johnny.
The Murphys rarely talk baseball
off the field.

is steak and potatoes. His biggest
aversion is eggs for breakfast. II

New York, Aug. l9.-(U'R)-
Rufus the Red, the eight-toed
man from Nokomis, ILL.,, is Rufflng
up the American League again.
The record books reads: Won
13, lost 3, but that tells only half
the story about the wide-should-
cred red-head who seems to be
carrying the New York Yankees
to another pennant. Carrying
them on the strength of his stout
righ arm, which Streaks a fast
ball across the plate; carrying
them with his heart that is as
stout as the man who hires him
Col. Jake Rupert.
No other pitcher in the Amerl-
can League, as this is written, has
won Is games. Only one other
man in the big leagues has done
it. That's right, Hubbell.
The real story about Red Ruff
fling is that he reported almost a
month late this season-the most
stubborn hold-out in the Major
leagues. No Florida sunshine had
soaked the stiffness out OF his
arm: no trainer had watched over
him as a mother watches over her
first born; there had been no
iaunts around the field in the
afternoon to prepare his legs for
the long, hard months ahead. All
he had when he reported was a
glove and a prayer. He still has
the glove-and he doesn't need
the prayer anymore.
Any other pitcher would have
needed a month to get into con-
dition. A week after Rutfing re-
ported, he pitched. He won. He's
been doing it ever since.
Years ago Red was working IN
an Illinois mine. 1t was hard,
bruising work, but Rutting was
big for his age and was getting
along fine. Getting alone fine,
that is. until one day there was
an accident. A few hours later
in a hospital, they told him he
had lost two toes off one foot.

Fordham Irishman Rated
Greatest Game Saver In

New York, Aug. 9.-W,R-Thun-

out all the cheers for Fordham

leagues greatest game saver in
ten years.
Yankee cannons are silenced to-

ant surge which swept them to a
9l2 game lead. Those long dis
tance ClouterS, Joe DiMaggio, Lou
Gehrig, and Bill Dickey, may have
been the big boys in winning the
Yankee games, but it was Irish
Johnny who saved more than his
share of them.
During the Yanks' current g.
game winning streak Murphy
worked in games, won three of
them and saved two. Only once in
the past six games have the YankS
failed to call on Murphy in a re-
lief role, and that was the day
Red Ruffing went the route
against Cleveland.
Not since the days of Wiley
Moore and his sinker ball in 1927
have the Yanks had relief pitch
ing to match Murphys work.
Without him they would never
have been able to keep up their
swift pace even with DiMaggio,
Gehrig and Dickey beating their
home run tattoo.
When Murphy came ambling
in from the Yanks distant bull
pen in left field to Squelch a

Hey, Johnny, how much rent
do you pay around here?"
Murphy has appeared in % out
of the Yanks' 96 games, almost a
third of them. Twelve times in
the past month he has come out
of the shadows of the bull pen to
sling his curve ball past opposing

London, U.P-Henry George
Stanton, Toronto stock broker,

dians children to learn to play the
piano in the last 20 years at cost
of only about II cents a lesson,
admitted in an interview here
that he could not play any musi-
cal instrument.
Stanton thought it a pity that
children from poor homes should
not have the chance to develop
any musical talent they might
have. So, with a few wealthy
friends, he started the Canadian
Bureau for the Advancement OF
Music.

much stronger this year, because
they had a wealth of sophomore
material that will have the bene-

regarded by Coach Ray Wolf and
his associates as anything but a
breather.
The Tar Heels will next meet
