 Brauchitsch headed the German army during the four major inter- national events in which it has played so big a role: tbe absorp- ticn of Austria, the Sudeten crisis the destruction of Czechosloyakia and. finally, the invasion of Po- land.
 Von BsauchitSch has been a sol dier all his 58 years. His origin, birth into the family of a cavalry general in the Kaiser's army, set his destiny. He has followed mili- tary career methodically and with increasing success.

 Gomez Still III
 The Yankees started Lefty Gomez on the start of the game but his recent injury caused Bumb Hadley to relieve at the start of the second inning and Hadley is thus credited with the victory.
 Reds in Battle
 The Reds made a courageous bat tie at the opening to thrill the crowd of over 32,000 fans.
 Cincinnati got three successive singles for a run in the first inning and got two more on Hadley on four singles to take the lead in the second inning This was the whole fuss for the Reds because thereafter Hadley allowed only three scattered singles.
 That Handwriting
 The handwriting on the wall ap- peared in the first inning when Thompson walked Frank Crosetti for he New York lead off. Then Kel- ler's liner that went into the right bleachers and his performance re- peated and with a walk and Di- Maggio.s drive in the third fol- lowed by Dickey's homer later put the handwriting squarely out to the fore.
 Keller's double homer is the first time since 1s32 that a player has nit two four basers in the same series game.
 Ideal Weather
 The game today started in short sleeve weather, sunny. most ideal day for game The grandstands and bleachers were packed.

How about a writeup for the

partment with one of those I-won't t.
take = no = for an-ansWer attitudes
Every time I look into the paper
all I see is what the boys are doing
How about giving the ladies a break?
They're good and deserve a little
recognition"
And parking himself on our desk
In a manner that blocked all ave-
nues Of escape, Barbast, a pleasan.
chap withal, began enumerating the
virtues of Sholls Cafeteria girls
team, currently leading the Wash
ing and Virginia League with seven
straight victories. Two years in a
row has the team won the metro
poGtan championship, and it seems
to be headed in the same direction
this season.
Smooth Inf1eld.
To begin with the team has the
smoothest infield in the city, and all
of the little ladies WELD a mean
mallet. Evelyn Lynch, who gained
a measure of recognition a few
years ago in hardball roles, plays
first and is sporting a nifty "a
waistline and 531 batting average
No less than three home runs and
four two-baggers have ricocheted of
her bat, which makes her the team S
leading slugger.
With Doris Poston at second and
Mildred Trexler at shortstop, Sholls S
boasts a keystone combination COM
parable with the old Peck-to- Harris
duo of the pennant-winning Mats
Miss Poston is whaling the spheroid
at an even 500 clip, and Miss Trek
ler's efforts at the plate have netted
a neat 1868 average.
Sholl's can point to its third
sacker, "Pudgy" Herbert, with par
donable pride, for "Pudgy" owns a
$50 batting mark, an abundance OF
color, has one of the strongest
throwing arms in the city, and is
close behind Miss Lynch in the mat
ter of extra base hits with two
homers, two triples and as many
doubles. She's one of the brightest
stars in Sholl's armament.
Might Beat Men.
Behind the plate are Dot Ready
and Betty Woods, batting 538 and
.562, respectively; and in the out
field, Anna Liegus, Betty and Evelyn
Lewis, Elsie Jenkins, Mary Zana-
lotti and Evelyn Neam, all stars In
their own right.
The pitching department Is han
dled-and capably-by Alice Wat
kins, who was the towns leading
hurler two years ago, and Jean
Shanks, promising newcomer
When they step in the box oppo-
nets bats become just so many
exercise wands guaranteed to reduce
plump batting averages. Thus far
they are undefeated, and at this
writing there seems to be little like
nhood that they will lose.
Barbast thinks the girls rate a
writeup. He thinks they could
beat most mems teams in the city
and after talking to him five minutes
you are smitten with similar idea
They might at that.

Marble and Jacobs
Show Keen Tennis
Al Wimbledon
Other Yankees Advance
But Paths Are Filled
With Strong Rivals
BY DREW MIDDLETON,

WIMBLEDON, England, June o.
The time was when after you had
seen the French. British and Amer
ican players at Wimbledon, you could
knock of for cup of tea or what
ever was handy. Not now. You
have to reckon with the Hungarians,
Yugoslavs and Czechs.
Jadwiga Jedrzejowska of Poland
opened the party yesterday by
whaling an inoffensive Belgian, Mrs.
j. De Meulemeester in straight sets.
The mountainous Jugoslav, Franjo
Kukuljevic, was the last star, al
though he and his partner were
licked in a torrid doubles match by
the Argentines. H. j. Etchart and
A. D. Russell. There were numerous
others.
Playing Great Tennis.
That doesn't mean the United
States wasn't making its presence
felt. Alice Marble and Helen Jacobs
slammed their way into the third
round of women's singles by beating
Mrs. j. S. Kirk and Mrs. R. E.
Haylock, respectively, with consum-
mate ease.
Helen was cagy as bag Of cats
and what she has lost in speed,
she makes up in savvy. She never
wastes step. Miss Marble is hitting
with phenomenal severity for what
is laughingly called the weaker
SEX" If she can fight down the
impulse to win every set at love,
she'll have her best Wimbledon.
Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Fabyan, Mrs.
Dorothy Andrus and Gracyn
Wheeler all got through without
much trouble. None of their vic
tories had the color of Mile Jedrze-
jowskas, though. For that matter
all the mittel Europeans are good
crowd pleasers. They sigh, they
yelp, they below and occasionally
they swear in language which
sounds like bottle of beer being
opened. The crowd, used to people
like Poker Face" Moody, lady-like
English girls and grim Americans,
loves it.
Mcneil Has Tough Job.
Add to that, they're darn good
players. Kukuljevic plays Don
McNeill today and he will give the
Oklahoman plenty of trouble. He
hits as hard as any one in the
tournament and has flaming spirit.
Gene Smith meets Roderich
Menzel in another second-round
match and he too will have his
hands full. Menzel has been around
long time, but apparently he's bet
ter than ever this year.
Other contenders for the mems
title include Franz Puncec, Demeter
Mite and Josip Pallada of Yugo-
slavia. Otto Szigetti of Hungary
knocked out the Californian, Bill
Robertson on Monday and still is in
the running. He is portly citizen,
built like Red Rufiing, but he can
run.
Owen Anderson of Los Angeles,
already immensely popular, meets
England's No. /, Bunny Austin, to-
day. Austin is the crowds favorite,
but he's far from the Austin of five
years ago, and he's past 80.
