nv FRANK "RUCK', O'NEILL

BY FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL
The Chicago White Sox, who
bounced right back into second
place yesterday, thanks to splen-
did bit of pitching by Thornton
Lee, moved into Philadelhia to
carry on their drive for the top.
The Sox were panied no little
over the result of their stay in
Washington. They expected little
trouble with the Griffs, but got
plenty.
The New York Yankees play the
Browns while the Sox are battling
the Athletics. Detroit moves to
Boston, and the Bengale alone of
the leading trio may expect trou-
Bile. OF course, baseball is so de-
lightfully uncertain in that you
can't tell just when a team is 60
ing to give trouble. But the law
of averages plays out pretty well
over a period of time.
Dixie Walker made a fine rum
ming catch of a drive by Melo Al
mada in the first inning, thus cut
ting down a triple.
The Sox played Myer straight
away in the second, which was
quite sensible. Myer hits to all
fields, and then he hit past Ap-
pling 10 center for single.
Rick Terrell was a victim Of cir
cumstances in the second inning.
He forced Myer at second on a
shot that would have been a base
hit with the bases empty.
Piet worked to the count of two
and two before driving an easy
fly to right field. Terrell pitched
him nothing but half speed curves,
low and outside.
Lee is something Of a hitter,
'twould seem. He rifled a double
into left center. Hayes walked, but
nothing developed for the reason
that Kreevich drove into a double
play, Travis to Myer to Kuhel.
Melo Armada was greatly panied,
not to say peeved, when he was
called out on strikes in the third
inning. But Basil was right; the
ball was right in the middle.
The Griffs made four hits in
three innings off Thornton Lee

International News service Sports Writer
If a managers personal popu-
larity could assure a pennant, the
st. Louis Browns might still win
in the American League.
For their new pilot, Sunny Jim
Bottomley, probably is the most
beloved character in baseball.
Jim is as popular with players
as he is with the fans, not only
in st. Louis, but all over the
country.
Whoever nicknamed him Sunny
Jim, hit on a happy moniker.
Who can ever forget him with
his cap stuck jauntily over one
ear, his staggering walk and his
infectious grin?
And what a ball player Jim
was! He could field with the best
of them and he could hit for
distance.
If memory is not at fault, Jim
still holds the National League
record for runs driven in in one
game-12-and if I recall correctly
that feat was achieved at the ex
pense of the Dodgers.
Jim's appearance at the Polo
Grounds, home of the Giants, OF
Ebbets Field, the lair of the Dodg
ers, was always the signal for an
outburst of applause from the
fans. They loved him and they
rooted for him even when he was
beating their team with amaz
ingly def fielding and great slug
ging.

Streak Habit Feature
OF ParmeIee's Work

CHICAGO.-Bud Parmelee, of
the Misunderstanding Cubs, had
the streak habit early in his
baseball career. With Columbus
in 1882, the future National
League ace won IL straight and
finished the American Associa-
ton season with a record Of IA
wins against one defeat.

GRIST OF THE GRIFFS

and each of these wallops was
scored by q left-handed hitter.
Which Of course proves that a
south.paw pitcher conquers south
side Swingers.
Stone, the first Griff at bat in
the fourth, also cracked a safe hit.
But why carry on this business
of left-handed hitter VS.. left
handed swinger. Good hitterS hit,
and that's that.
"Hey, Basil; va missed one"
A fan shouted at the jumps in
the fifth frame. But Appling, Piet
and Lee refrained from missing,
and that really hurt.
When you're talking Of pretty
plays and all that sort of thing,
recall that fancy stop and throw
returned in by Appleton on which
he retired Myer in the sixth
frame.
Thorton Lee has defeated the
New York Yankees five times this
year, which should make the
Griffs feel a little bit better about
the ending of the winning streak
at six games.
Cecil Travis went back on the
grass four times to catch pop
flies that threatened trouble.
It is always a treat to watch AL
Simmons play the outfield. He
never throws to the wrong base.
and this is one of the marks Of
the master of the patrols.
When the game was over some
fan wanted to know if Arch Nc
Donald could play BURY Me Not
On the Lone Prairleee." Whether
or not the old maestro had the
record, he did NOT play it.
The right-handed hitter Of the
Griffs contributed Is outs and no
hits whatever to the box score.
In any event, it required only
hour and 80 minutes to snap
winning streak that was many
painful weeks in arriving.

DALLAS. Tex. Jan. 81.

DALLAS, Tex, Jan. 81.
Guess I'll go back to the
Cards, as usual" Paul Dean,
half of the "Me and Paul" team,
mainstay of the St. Louis Car
dinaIs, said here today in an in
terview in which he did a lot of
guessing.
The younger Deans singing
arm which made him stop play
ing last year is in good condition
again, he said, and he has "con-
fidence in it for this season." He
has been nursing it and taking
life easy all winter "just killing
birds and golfing" as he loafed
around the farm he owns near
Dallas.
"My contract has not arrived
yet, but I guess it's on its way
down here and / guess I'll sign
up again-if 1 get what 1 want"
he remarked.
No, Dizzy hasn't written or
talked to him for a long time,
but Paul guessed" again that
the elder brother would soon so
they could get ready for the sea-
son with the Cards. THAT is if
they haven't sold me-" Paul

Grid Coach PAY

AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. 21.-Faculty
members Of the University Of
Texas were startled today to learn
that the chairman Of the board
of regents had suggested their sal
aries be boosted to figures COM
mensurate with the salary de-
manded by Dana x. Bible.
Bible, head football coach at
Nebraska, is said to have de-
manded a five-year contract call
ing for an annual salary of $15, 900.
DR.. H. Y. Benedict, president of
the university, who receives $4,000
per year, has opposed paying a
football coach more than any
member of the faculty, the best
paid member of which receives
$4,000.
Instead of paying the coach less,
H. j. Lutcher Stark, chairman of
the board of regents and million
aire godfather Of Texas U. ath-
letics, suggested paying the pro.
fessors more as a means of renov-
ing any professional objections to
hiring Bible.
1--WE should pay $4,000 to the
president Of a great institution
like the University of Texas"
Stark declared. "The top prOfes-
serial salary should be $4,000,
and salaries Of other faculty
members should be raised and
graduate in proportion"

Boasts Stars

Four former All-American bas-
ketball players-Lou Spindell, Will
lie Rubenstein, Lou Bender and
Bill Nash-will appear in the
lineup of the New York Whirl-
winds in their professional game
Sunday afternoon at the Heurich
gym against the fast-stepping
Heurich Brewers.
Each one an answer to a coach'S S
prayer, these four cagers helped
make basketball at their respective
colleges.
Spindell, hailed as the greatest
athlete ever turned out at City
College of New York, served as
assistant to the famous Nat Hol-
man from 1888 through 1885. He
has been playing pro ball for three
years, and in 1884 was voted the
most valuable player in the Amer
lean Basketball League.
Rubenstein was said to be one
of the best shots in intercollegiate
basketball last season, captaining
the great New York University
team.
Bender won a name for himself
at Columbia University, captain
ing the Lions when they won the
Eastern League title in 1880.
The fourth All-American, Nash,
also is from Columbia, having
captained the team there. He is
six feet one.
Heurich Pros, who have estab
liShed quite reputation for them
selves by virtue of victories over
the Brooklyn DuX, Renaissance,
CeIticS and Presidents, will play
the Whirlwinds twice Sunday
Shortly after the game here, which
will start at 3 p. m, the two teams
will embark for New York to play
at the Hippodrome at 9 that

Virginia Five
To Test TerpS
In0pener

Maryland's boxing team is sure
to get the hardest test it has had
this season when it swaps blows
with the North Carolina Tarheels
in the final number of the double
attraction in Ritchie Coliseum at
College Park Saturday night.
A basketball game between
Maryland and Virginia, that also
should be hot, will open the all
Dixie program at 8 o'clock.
A more than normal capacity
crowd seems certain and chairs
will be placed on the floor I'M
mediately after the basketball
game is comp!eved. This should be
shortly after 9 o'clock and the box
ing should get underway by 9:25
at the latest.
Slight Choice
Maryland will be a slight IA
vorite in the boxing match bu5
with Charlie Keller, ace guard, on
the sidelines with an injured wrist,
the Terps are figured to have no
better than an even chance with
the Cavalier basketers. Bill GucE-
eyson of football and track fame
is filling Keller'S shoes.
While few, if any, of the bouts
should be one7sided, two promise
to provide some unusual action.
These are the ones in which Mike
Lombardo of the Terps and julie
Medwin of the Tarheels will mix
in the 155-pound class and the
meeting of Lancelot Jacques,
Maryland sensation, and Max No
vich, Carolina's Southern Con-
ference champion, in the light
heavy scrap. Novich won his title
as a 165-pounder but has moved
up this year.
Tarheels Experienced
Every man slated to fight for
the Tarheels has had quite a
bit of experience as the eight
boxers tentatively chosen to face
Maryland are either seniors or
juniors.
Virginia's starting basketball
team also is made up entirely Of
letter men with play revolving
around Bud Abitt, 6 foot 5 inch
center, and Bus Male, a great
floor man, who goes up only 5
feet 8 inches.
