Attached garages offer important

Heretofore it was general to think in
terms of single garage, but the ad-
vent of low-priced motor cars and in

ny MANN DUN " NGAAA
One of these fine days when this
whirling around the country with
ball clubs is all over, this writer is
going to devote a few weeks, or
maybe a few years to the study OF
pinch pitchers. We will divide
them into groups. There will be the
first division Of men who can pro
tect a one-run lead come wind,
tremblor or high water. Then
there will be the man who can't
protect anything, and lastly, the
men who can pitch like nobody'S
business when a game is seemingly
lost.
Now you take the antics of the
Griffs yesterday, and consider
Eddie Linke. On the last trip
Linke went into the box, relieving
Louie Newsom. In a twinkling or
less, Goslin hit a home run with
the bases full and a game went.
Linke went back against the
Tigers yesterday in a game that
seemed lost beyond all redemp-
ton. And never in his life has
Linke pitched a better game. He
shut out the Tigers for six innings,
but finally allowed a run in the
ninth.
Ready to Pitch?
Why was Linke so great when
the game seemed lost?
Or was yesterdays game an in
dication that Linke is ready to
swing back into the ranks Of win
ming pitchers?
Consider CaScarella for a mo-
ment. In the exhibition game at
Charleston he was hammered in
the first inning and unbeatable
thereafter until relieved by Harris.
Which was the true CaScarella;
the guy who stopped them dead or
the man who took the lacing?
Boom, boom, it's the Oregon!
The Washington times., 1937-06-16
GRIST OF THE GRIFFS

eThe Tigers gave Jimmy DeShong
a maSsaging that won't be forgot
ten for a long time to come. They
tied into him for a dozen hits and
seven runs.
You learn with genuine regret
that Floyd Caves Herman drew
his unconditional release from the
Detroit Tigers. A colorful bloke
was the Babe, and for all the libel
printed and spoken Of him, a bet
ter than average ball player.
What a breeze for Tommy
Bridges! Seven runs in two in
nings, and besides that; two
double plays in two innings. Twas
right jovial.
HankuS Pankus .Greenberg
smashed a double up against the
center field barrier in the first
inning. He certainly can comb
that ball.
Laabs takes a very nifty cut at
the ball. Looks now as If Goose
Goslin may have a little trouble
getting into the lineup again, save
on special occasions.
Cliff Bolton sat on the Detroit
bench and gurgled in ghouliSh
glee as Tiger hits rang out on
the summer air.
Sid Cohen blazed q screw ball
past Pete Fox in the tenth inning
and the Tiger went down on
strikes. Pretty tough guy when
he has his stuff, this Sid Cohen.
Travis tried to bunt Simmons
to second in the tenth inning, but
tapped in front Of the plate and
forced Simmons at second. For
a fundamental as simple as bunt-
ing, many a major league hitter
looks like a sucker trying to make
the play.
Well, It Just goes to show that
you can take nothing for granted
in baseball.

New York, Aug. io-(UP)-To the regret of many, the wrestling war which has been going on for year or more was ended.
 Many of us had hoped 1t would go on forever or, If not forever, ct least until there wasn't man left on either side.
 But last week peace was effected when the suave and sweaty diplo- mats who handle wrestling affixed their ignatures or "x's" to e treaty which future historians will know as the "headlock treaty" The pact, whose all IA points read "They shall be no deliberate double-cross- ing without full consent of all parties" was signed In c hall of mirrors. The hall of mirrors was chosen as @ precaution against any one breaking the pact while watt ing to sign.
 By the treaty many of the pro- motors throughout the country, and hundreds of Wrestlers were welded into @ happy If homely family. Dur ing the war, life was very unhappy for the grunt, groan and grimaee boys. Dirty work was not only afoot, but two and three feet deep. Wrestlers didn't Know when they were going to win or when they were going to lose. Nothing so up- set the delicate mechanism of Q wrestler's mind as uncertainty. It causes him no end of unhappiness.

0 coach when he was playing around the sandlots of Milwaukee, the well-meaning tutor probably tried to break Aloysius of the habit of putting his foot in the bucket"
 Such trick is considered among kid players as a sign of being a fraidy-cat They scornfully think that you're afraid of being hit.
 And yet when Aloysius Szymanski changed his name to Simmons and became one of the greatest hitters in baseball he hadn't changed that batting stance.
 "Of course, I'd never tell kid to stand that way" says Cronin, but that foot fin the bucket has been one of the things that's help ed Simmons become such @ great hitter. It gave him weave up there at the plate. You see, he could stride either way and could step over for outside pitches.
 "Ducky Medwick bats something like Simmons-he has his foot out of position, but he weaves with the pitch. He's always able to shift to hit the ball no matter where 1t is. That's why lot of people think he's a bad ball hitter--he's always able to hit the bad balls"
 The other great hitters have their distinctive little flaws which haven't kept them from being dangerous Mel Ott kicks up his right foot against all rules, Wally Berger ire. Qlently commits the cardinal sin

BIG CROWD TO
 WATCH CLOWNS
 PERFORM HERE
Philippians to Tackle All. Star Amateurs Sunday
 Afternoon

The Borneo Cannibals are coming yes sir, those bushy haired sons of Zulu chiefs, are bringing their peacetime implements with them, which will consist of baseball bats, gloves and other paraphernalia Of the national game They will ape pear here next Sunday in the sec ond game or monster double. header baseball treat ct Hamilton park, the first game of which will be the world famous Ethiopian Clowns against an all-star team of the league and the second game will be the Tonmies, against the Cannibals. The first game will start at l.30 and the second will get un- derway at 3:45, with entertainment before each game.
 Both of these teams are the big gest baseball attraction that has ever been offered local fans in many season. Especially is this true of the cannibals In this travelling tribe of Africans Is concentrated the cream of dark skinned baseball stars-Borneo Cannibals who play the game in big-league professional style and manner, and who inject grand-stand stuff into their play, always making the contest more than interesting to every man, woman and child,
 They have won ll9 out of their 134 games played against the best semi-pro and minor league teams Of the country, and they have aS their proud boast the fact that they out drew the major league teams in the South, where they were both this spring.
 Although the Cannibals take their baseball serious as soon as the game starts, as victories over the Buck Lai Hawaiians, Grover Alexander team, and others of this calibre will attest, they, during theirp prae- tiee period go through plenty of buffoonery and elowning They play the game in true cannibal style without shirts or hats, wearing only grass skirt, and no shoes.
 There Is no secret about the fact that both the All-Stars and Tom. mles are In for Q stormy session against these two teams, the Can. nibals with their great record of wins and the Ethiopian Clowns who come here with c record Of 36 straight wins and the Ethiopian Clowns who come here with Fec- ord of 3b straight wins.
 On account of the large expense town there will be the small admis- sion price Of 25e charged for both involved in bringing this team to games, with two gates open, one near the pavilion and the other in center field

He can't sleep more than 10 hours day or eat more than three meals when he is assailed by doubt
 Before the treaty wrestlers who didn't like to be tickled during . match were being tickled and those who were sensitive to being bounced on their head were being bounced, Promoters had their worries, too In New York, where there Is Q eurfew law that forbids wrestling bouts lasting more than Ii p. m, sched- ules became confused Men who were booked for IS minutes hauled and tugged overtime. And much worse, capable but colorless grap- piers were throwing incapable but box office draws oil over the place,
 There was much stealing of holds. A man would keep his mental Ice cream freezer working overtime to think up on intricate and high sounding grip, only to have 1t pil- fered by rival. l personally heard of one case where Q wrestler, with the combined aid of his wife, his wife's sister, his wife'S brother, and his wife's mother call of whom were living with him) finally evolved c fearSom grip, which was christened the "termite torture twist.
 Imagine this artists consternation when he arrived in c town for 0 match and found his opponent billed as the originator and foremost ex. ponent of the "termite torture twist" Both employed the hold in the match and were rendered help less because the "termite torture twist" like nearly oil modern wrestling strategies. requires the near- perfect cooperation of the users opponent.
 Under the treaty such sad matters vii lbe done away with. A WrestlerS muscle-child, 50 to speak will be his own, to cherish and fool the public with until he retires. Fur thermore, all wrestlers will be forced to give opponents complete CO., operation.
 Champions will breathe easier under the new treaty. And when 1 say champions, 1 mean oil 50 or GO of them. They will not be deprived of their titles without due and proper notice, Sixty days notice will be given when c new member is named to be tapped. This rule not only will soften the blow to the man to be deprived of the purple, but also give his successor time to grow beard beflttlng c worlds heavyweight wrestling champion.
