Flag Far From Being
Yanks', , Says Defiant
Baker Of Tigers
Points to 1886 Failure
Of Own Club to Show
Anything Can Happen
BY WHITNEY MARTIN,
Associated Press SPORTS Writer.

NEW YORK, June 2O.-Del Baker
wouldn't concede the New York
Yankees 3-inch putt. not to men,
ton the American League cham
pionship.
"Concede them the pennant?"
fairly shouted the dapper Detroit
manager, tossing in a few descrip-
tive adjectives for good measure. Il
should say not.
Sure they're II games in front,
but there still are about 100 games
to play and anything can happen. "
Baker can't figure out why his
Tigers were so slow in getting under
way this year or their abrupt change
for the better.
"A baseball team is just like a
flock Of sheep" he said. "Once it
gets started the wrong way it's
pretty hard to get them turned
around. And a funny thing, you
check back and you'll notice Detroit
has got off on the wrong foot every
year for the last six years"
Returning to his anything can
happen" argument, Baker con-
tinued:
Gives Case in Point.
Back in 1896 everything looked
fine for Detroit. We were going to
have better team than we had in
1884 and 1885, when we won the
pennant. Then what happens?
We lose Crowder and Rowe and
Cochrane and boom! there goes
our pennant."
incidentally, 1t was Baker who
first showed any defiance whatso-
ever toward the Yankees. He sent
in fragile Tommy Bridges to pitch
against them and demonstrated
that the McCarthymen have as
much trouble with good pitching as
the Elm Street Tigers or any other
team.
Bridges whipped them and, taking
courage from that demonstration
Oscar Witt of Cleveland let the
Yanks look at Bob Feller, who also
pinned their ears back.
Baker thinks the New York team
has had more than its share of luck
in winning pitching battles with
one or two runs.
Sees Breaks for Yanks
when they slug, and win a game
by IL to 6, or something like that
It's different. But when they win
most OF those close decisions they re
getting more than their share OF
the breaks"
The slim boss of the Greenbergs
and Gehringers and Yorks thinks he
has a fine young pitcher in young
Paul Trout, who had great season
with Beaumont last year. As for
George Tebbetts, catcher, he says:
Eyes, I understand some clubs
would like to get Tebbetts in trade
Well, who wouldn't? He's the best
young catcher in baseball"
Baker, despite the fact his Tigers
still are eyeing fourth place as Their
next stop upward, does not give the
impression he is whistling past q
graveyard when he hurls defiance
at the Yankees.
He has the power, is getting the
pitching now, and is ready to shoot
ahead at the first signs of faltering
on the part of the leaders. With
Earl Averill, obtained from Cleve-
land in a recent deal, the Tigers
present a formidable batting order.
ITS 4 little early to tell about
Averill yet" Baker said. Hes only
played three games for us. But
think he will help"

Death for Felonies

The death penalty or some form
Of corporal punishment was applied
in felony cases in New York dur
ing the Colonial era and following
the Revolution according to study
published by the Columbia Univer-
sity Press. Sixteen crimes, among
them being burglary, murder, trea-
son, arson, house-breaking, robbery,
forgery, and malicious mischief,
were punishable by hanging for the
first offense; and in an equal num-
Der Of felonious offenses death was
the penalty for a second conviction.
Thirty-nine lashes on the bare back
was the general penalty on convic-
ton for stealing such articles as
"a coat" "a watch" or "a piece of
chints," and women were lucky if
because of their sex they where
spared this punishment.

Indian Wars Depopulated Ohio

The Ohio country, once a rich
hunting ground for $4,000 to $4,000
Indians, was virtually uninhabited
for several decades about 500 years
ago, according to DR.. Beverly W.
Bond, University of Cincinnati pro-
fessor of history. Ohio became a
mo mans land as result of wars
between New York state Iroquois
and the Ohio Erie nation in the mid
die of the Seventeenth century. The
Fries were defeated and almost de-
stroyed. More tribes came to this
area about 1880 seeking new hunt
ing grounds, Doctor Bond said.

In a sense the antelope is its own
worst enemy because of its curios-
ity, according to the American Wild
life institute. The antelope simply
cannot stand the presence of any
thing strange without investigating.
Hunters, taking advantage of this
fact, lured thousands within range
by lying low and waving a bandana
on a ram-rod or simply by throw
ing themselves prone and raising
their feet in the air at rhythmic
intervals. The antelopes must in
vestigate-and come too close to the
business end of the hunters gun.

Isle of Dogs Not Island

The Isle of Dogs, in London is a
district of Poplar, surrounded on
three sides by the Thames; it is
principally docks, says London An
swers Magazine. Where it got its
name is a bit of mystery. Some
authorities suggest that it was so
"christened" because the Royal ken
nels were situated there in the Sew
enteenth century. Others say that
"dogs" is just corruption OF
clocks"

The worlds shortest work week is
probably that of the elephants of
Burma. Some 5000 of the animals
are employed in the teak forests of
that country. In spite of their size,
the elephants are incapable of work
ing for long stretches. They are
consequently kept busy for only five
or six hours day and given the
other IL or 19 off, Even this amount
is too much work for average ele-
plants and their owners therefore
usually work them but three days at
time, then give them two days of
rest.

Discovered Laws of Heredity

Back in 1860 an Austrian monk,
named Mendel, discovered natures
laws of heredity. His discovery
was made while working with COM
mon garden peas, and the princi-
Piles of heredity he discovered were
found to be applicable thro ughout
the plant and animal kingdoms. The
papers he wrote on the subject,
known as 1.-The Mendelian Theory of
Heredity," were misplaced and
came to light only in 1900.

News Comes From Compass Points

Popular etymology derives news"
from the initial letters of the names
of the four cardinal points of the
compassionate, east, west and
south. It is said that before the
time of newspapers IT was custom
airy to post events of general inter-
est in public places under four col
umns, headed IN. E. w. S." the
happenings from the north being re-
corded under NJ, those from the east
under E, those from the west under
w, and those from the south under
S. Hence the word news"

If the ancients are to be believed,
the answer to the excessive use of
alcoholic liquors would be easy It
would only be necessary to drink

In fact, the word amethyst is of

il texication. This belief of the an
