CHICAGO, May 3.-Baseball's hall

names of % diamond heroes, was
closed today until the Nation pays
formal tribute June II to the l0Sc
birthday of the national pastime.
The names of six stars of the era
prior to 1900 were added yesterday
to the hall of fame list. Selected
by K. M. Lands, commissioner of
baseball; President Ford Frick of

Baseball writers of the Nation
have elected IL players to hall OF
fame membership. Lands, Frick
and Harridge, acting as special
committee, previously named five
men who contributed to the games
development.
Radbourne pitched SIT games in
10 years as National Lacquer,
starring with Providence. r. l.; Bos-
ton and Cincinnati. He won 60
games for Providence in 1884, 26 in
a row. Anson, a professional u

for 20 seasons.
Cummings was famed as the first
known pitcher to use the curve ball

greatest catchers of the sport.

Comiskey, "the old Roman"

it to Chicago in 1900. A great first
baseman, he revolutionized the
manner of playing the position,
standing 20 or 80 feet from the bag.

KuheI Is Top Factor

Sets Batting Pace With
.420 os Team Brings
Joy to South Side
BY the Associated Press,

CHICAGO, May 3.-Maybe the
Chicago White SoN are building up
their rabid South Side hackers for
an awful letdown, but at least it's
fun while it lasts.
Their supporters and the Sox
themselves are fugitives from the
moaners' bench. And they had
plenty to moan about last year and
until week ago. But that's all over
now. they hope.
Reason number one for the sud-
den uprising of the American
Leaguers Is Joe Kuhel, the 33-.
year-old first baseman, who slumped
SO miserably last summer. Kuhel.
with a neat .420 batting average,
leads the clubs power trio. The
two others are Outfielders Gerald
Walker and Mike Kreevich, hitting
.346 and 1924, respectively.
This threesome has paced the
attack that is mainly responsible
for the teams current flve- straight
victory string and seven wins in the
last eight games, lifting the Sox
from the cellar to second place.
Such hitting and the comeback
of Pitcher Bill Dietrich, victor in
two games so far, give hope to the
Sox that their prolonged tough
luck jinx Is over.

Texas Christian students voted
football the best sport to watch
and tennis the best in which to

a poor fourth as sport for par

And what of Master Melvin? He

up with a timely single during a

Thereby the Reds were Beaten, 81

if he didn't know-that it doesn't
even take two men to make his
