St. Louis Fans Flock
To See Dizzy Pitch
Against Cards
BY the Associated Press.


ST. LOUIS. June 28.-Dizzy Dean.
Chicago pitcher and Chamber of
Commerce speaker. was called upon
today to try his hand at bouncing
his old teammates out of second
place in the National League race.
Scheduled to be thrown against
the surprising Cardinals this after
noon, it will be Dizzy's first start
in st. Louis since the spectacular
trade that sent him to the Cubs last
April.
And quite a reception" was
planned for Diz.
His former mates have been point
ing to this game ever since word
leaked out days ago that he would
hurl in the current series.
Like old times, advance ticket
sales indicated hundreds of Deans
old followers would be present.
Whether they paid to cheer or boo
remains to be seen.
Diz. who recently squawked at be-
ing used only on Sundays and
lambasted Cub players for not hus-
tling, is seeking his fifth straight
victory this year and his twelfth
against one loss since he left the
Cards. In four games this year he
has blanked his opponents in 40
out of 43 innings.
He beat the Cards, to o, at
Chicago last year in his only other
appearance against them.

Marlin there are running bit
earlier and larger this year. Last
year the first one wasn't caught un-
til June "a, and it was July 7 before
they came in as many as five a day.
They already are doing that and
another record breaking season
looms.
Youngster Has Thrill.
And in our own private fishing

is North Beach and very good re-
ports come from there. Mr.. and
Mrs. George Robson and Bill
Schinner caught 68 hardhead in
early morning fishing in Herring
Bay and the next day they took
their 10-year-old granddaughter
fishing and gave her the thrill of
her young life. This little angler
is just recovering from two broken
arms received while skating and it
was a real outing for her.
The lassie received 4 rod
and reel for a Christmas pres
ent and gave it a good baptism
In Herring Bay.
Despite her tender years and her
injury she caught IA hardhead and
once had double header. Mr.. and
Mrs. Robson report that the young
lady never before had such a good
time and that from now on she is
confirmed angler That is starting
them young, but it gives her a whole
lifetime OF pleasure and excitement.

Many spot, and large ones, are in
the bay and trout are arriving. De
Witt Harry, president of the local
Izaak Walton League chapter, tried
the angling at Three Notch and
found it good. The morning mostly
was devoted to spot, but during the
afternoon and evening they found
the trout. Harry caught one that
weighed 7 pounds and a baby like

hitter and Pete Appleton took up
the chucking chores in the eighth
with the Mats holding a 81 lead.
Appleton promptly walked in
run by issuing four bases on balls
while retiring two Yankees. Harris
waved Carrasquel to the mound and
Alexandra retired Joe Gordon to
leave those three runners stranded.
He then retired the Yankees in order
in the ninth.
Athletics Follow Yankees Here.
So the Yankees are apt to regard
the Mats with considerable respect
despite their present lowly station.
Washington will play the Ath-
letics in single game Saturday
and a double-header on Sunday.
The team will hit the road after
meeting Philadelphia and won't re-
turn to Griffith Stadium until July
Is.
The Mats were dealt their second
successive shutout defeat yesterday
as Elden Auker judiciously spaced
six hits while the Red Sox were
pounding the veteran Harry Kelley
for II safeties and an 80 victory.
Buddy Lewis, who now has estab-
lished himself as a gilt-edged threat
to grasp the American League hit
ting leadership, and Taft Wright
split the Mats half dozen hits. each
pounding Auker for three singles.
Operating without the services of
First Baseman Jimmy Foxx, who
was stricken by grippe, the Red
Sox inserted highly acceptable
replacement in Lou Finney, who
blasted two doubles and a single,
batted in three runs and otherwise
got in Mr.. Kelleys sparse hair.
The last game of the Washington
Boston series was called off shortly
before 10 o'clock this morning be-
cause OF rain. 1t will be played as
part of a double header when the
Red Sox next visit Washington, In

Same Clubs Struggled
To Major Mark Of
Is Frames in 70
Giants Make 1t Four
Straight; FeIIer
HurIs Hitter
By BILL WHITE,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

The Brooklyn Dodgers may not
play better baseball than the other
teams in the National League. but
it's cinch they play lot more.
Yesterday, for the seventh time
this year, the Flatbush funsters went
extra innings. when they played a
% tie with the Boston Bees in a
23-inning marathon. That was the
third longest game ever played in
the majors and the longest game
of the current season by four in
nings.
When darkness ended what was
beginning to be big bore to every
one concerned, the Dodgers over
time record stood at three ties, two
wins and two losses-a total of 81
extra innings played this year
Whitlow Wyatt, the freshman SEN
sation, who has won seven for the
Dodgers, stayed in the longest, toll
ing for 16 innings before he limped
off the field. Three other hurlers
finished what he had started and
what proved to be within three in
nings of the longest game ever
played in the majors-a IL tie be-
tween the Dodgers and the Bees Of
1920, the forerunnerS of these two
teams
Bees Score Early.
That 26-inning affair was two
frames longer than a Al victory the
Philadelphia AS took from the Bos-
ton Red SoX back in 1906.
The Bees also used four hurlers
and all the alchemy they knew to
win, but to no avail.
Boston opened the battle that only
darkness could stop with two runs
in the second inning, when Max
West. Tony Cuccinello and Henry
Majeski all singled and Eddie Miller
banged out a sacrifice fly.
The Dodgers came to life and
scored once in the third on Pete
Coscarart's double, Wyatt's single
and Melo Aln1adas S infield out. They
tied it in the eighth on hits by Art
Parks, Dolph Camilli and Ernie Koy.
The Bees had a swell chance to
break the deadlock in the 18th in
ming, but Pinch Runner Otto Huber,
anxious to get home and be hero
skidded rounding third and had to
back pedal AS he stood there with
two other mates on base, Pinch Hit
ter Stan Andrews famed and Deb
Garms grounded out.
Giants Win Again.
In the other National League
games the Giants won their l4th in
their last Is starts and the fourth
in a row by walloping the Phillies,
1875; the Reds snapped out of four
game losing streak with 60 win
over the Pirates as Paul Derringer,
who failed to finish in his last three
starts, hurled a four-hitter. The
Chicago Cubs bowed to the st. Louis
Cardinals, So. as Lon Warneke won
his ninth of the season.
Bobby Feller headed the Ameri-
can League parade of stars with a
masterful one-hit pitching job as
55,3O5 saw the Indians win the first
American League night game in
Cleveland. Bobby moved down the
Tigers by SO and Earl Averiu got
the hit that spoiled a perfect game.
The Washington Senators were
shut out for the second straight
time by the Red Sox, this time by
80, and Ted Lyons won, 11-2, for
the White Sox by limiting the
Browns to four hits for his eighth
of the season.
The Yankees and Athletics were
idle.

BY BURTON HAWKINS.

Clinging desperately to its last
shred Of distinction, that of being
the only outfit to give the Yankees
more spankings than it has received
from them this season. Washingtons
retreating baseball club today pre-
pared to manufacture morsel of
news, 1t hoped. at the expense of the
pace-setting New York gang.
Somewhat akin to tonight's Galen-
to-Louis business, with the Mats pos
ing as Tony in this instance. WASH
ington at least won't be suffering
from an inferiority complex when it
clashes with the Yankees in a
double leheader tomorrow at Griffith
Stadium.
BY all rights the Mats, at this point,
should be equipped with slight shak-
ing in the region of the knees and
glassy-eyed expressions, but it isn't
working that way. It's all because
the seventh place Mats have captured
three of five engagements with the
Yankees this season and no other
club can approach that record.
While his clubs margin may dis
appear in the double-heade and
Fridays single game, Manager Bucky
Harris isn't conceding anything to
the Yankees. He hasn't been enjoy
ing the season as a whole thus far,
but walloping New York is his idea
OF ideal entertainment.
Mats Scoreless for 19 Innings.
Bucky, in fact, is inclined to feel
optimistic in the midst of misery
for the Grif1s now are nursing a los
ing streak of three games and
haven't scored run in 19 innings.
Alexandra Carrasquel, the Vene-
zuelan right-hander who has un-
raveled some of his more polished
pitching against the Yankees, and
Ken Chase, who stopped them, 81
on nine hits, have been nominated
by Harris to work the double-header,
with Joe Krakauskas looming as the
likely starter for Friday.
Carrasquel made his major league
debut against the Yankees. He
stepped in as relief hurler, forced
Joe Di Maggie to fly out to squelch a
rally, and went on from there to al
low only one run and five hits in five
and one-third innings.
His next appearance also was
against the Yankees and CarrasqueI
was stamped as something of hero
after that exhibition. Krakauskas,
who had yielded only four hits in
seven innings. was lifted for pinch

NEW YORK, June % (N.AN.A).
Here is the way the critics feel
about the fight between Joe Louis

If Tony lasts one round, they will
be surprised.
If Tony lasts two rounds, they will
be startled
If Tony lasts three rounds, they
will be amazed
If Tony lasts four rounds, they
will be confounded.
If Tony lasts five rounds, they will
be transfiXed.
If Tony lasts six rounds, they will
be slightly taken back.

Corporations. They discussed in

the International situation.
Balkan Peace Bloc
Announcement Of the Italo- Greek
agreement to Withdraw troops from
the Greek-Albanian frontier was In
terpreted as supporting tIaly's ef.
forts to form q Balkan peace bloc.
The decision marked the first time
since the Albanian occupation that
Italo- Greek relations have shown
signs Of rapprochement.
Authoritative quarters interpret
ed the decision as the first concrete
step towards developing Greece,
Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Hungary,
Turkey and Rumania into Q peace
bloc along the lines Of the Oslo
group, which includes the Scandin-
avian countries, Belgium, the Meth

that Mussolini now has intensified
