Merriwell Finish

According to Gabby, his greatest
moment in almost 20 years of big
league ball came last year when he
hit a pennant-turning home run dur
ing dark ninth inning against the
Pittsburgh Pirates. Thousands of
fans were just as thrilled as Gabby
at the great Frank Merriwen finish.
Gabby, nearing his thirty-ninth
birthday, joined the Cubs in 1922
when he was a 22-year-old rookie.
He has q lifetime batting average
Of an even 300, and perhaps is
most admired by Cub fans as a bat
ter. In 1880 he brought in LIZ runs.
In 1887 he put on the longest hitting
streak of the season when he clicked
in 26 straight games.
Leo the Lion Hearted lays claim to
no greatest single game. The ''no-
hit" charm has always eluded him,
but, he says, I've had the pleasure
of working with lot of great pitch
ers."
And lot of pitchers have had the
pleasure of working with great
catcher.

pie mathematics proves that it viii
be at least half decade before
another challenger will stand a
chance to better the marks.
Bill Dickey, Yankee catcher, has
the best chance. He stands closest
to Hartnett with more than 1900
big league contests behind him.
Dickey is only 80, and may in 1943
catch up to the 1,727 record on a
basis of 100-game seasons. However,
Gabby is confident that he win have

Gabby's Record

The one game Gabby caught in
1929 caused the mix-up. That was
the game which had been lost-a
game played in Chicago against the
New York Giants on September %.
It was the only game Gabby worked
behind the plate In that season of
the great sore arm, a battling all
ment that came and went with nel-
Their rhyme nor reason, but which
kept him inactive through all the
year save that almost forgotten aft
ernoon.
The past year hasn't been par
ticularly enjoyable for the rotund
Cub manager. A cheerful, happy
sort of an individual in the past,
Gabby's sense Of humor has been
strained to the breaking point since
taking over the clubs managerial
reins. The pennant-winning Bruins
were expected to repeat. That left
Charles Leo in somewhat of hole,
due to the teams widespread in
juries, old age and small spot of
dissension. Dizzy Dean failed to
come back, Clay Bryant's sore arm
failed to respond-in fact, the list
of failures was awe-inspiring. But
the grizzled veteran accomplished
all that could be expected with his
squad of invalids and old men.

Harris Signed for Next Year;

Now" Griffith said, amplifying
his announcement, "Bucky and I are
going to put our heads together and
figure ways to improve the club. If
things go the way think they will
Washington ought to finish IN the
first division next year
"Krakky May Wake Up"
What about this Greenberg-to-
Washington rumor?
Wal" Griffith said, Il dunno as
how Greenberg is the feller we ex-
actly want. But he wouldn't hurt
us any. Well have to see at the
winter meeting"
The pitching, Griff, is pretty bad.
There's Dutch Leonard and .
WAL" Griff sighed, young
Haynes looked awfully good toward
the end of the year and if he puts
on a little weight he ought to do all
right next season. Then there's Ken
Chase. He doesn't figure to lose as
many tough games again. Our
pitching will be better. Finally,
there's always Krakauskas. He may
wake up one Of these days and be
the best pitcher on the whole club. :"
But this years inf1eld was posi-
lively -.
It'll be better" Griff insisted
"Bloodworth and Leip looked good
around second base. Give Aderholt
another two years and he'll be all
right, too. I kinda like this Leip
He can run bases and hit and field"
He Strings Along With Wasdell.
But, of course, there's the outfield
problem, Griff. There's Case and
nobody else 80.
Don't forget Wasdell," Grif ad-
vised. HE did all right in the
American Association. He'll either
play the outfield or first base. I
know he was bad first baseman
but We'll iron out his kinks in an
other spring training season. -"
So Mr.. Harris is the guy who'll
have to worry most about the Leips
and Quicks and Wasdells and
Hayneses. At that, Bucky is doing
all right. He hasn't failed to man
age a big-league club from 1924 to
1910. which is going into his 17th
consecutive year as pilot.
The only fellow with an edge on
Bucky, in point of continuous serv-
ice, is Connie Mack. And Connie

Meanwhile, the local betting fra

Versatile as Player.
When Bowser played at Pitt he
started at end, shifted to quarter
back, tackle and center and took a
shot at every post except fullback
and halfback.
Evidently working on the same
theory, he shifted Ray Rabinek,
173-pound sophomore guard, to the
quarterback slot in an attempt to
find capable replacement for hard
working Kish. He wouldn't COM

By the Associated Press.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 11.-Ral Parr,
g., the turfman who owned a Derby
winner but said he liked the in
surance business better than racing,
died unexpectedly last night.
PARIS black, white and red silks,
the oldest active colors registered
with the New York Jockey Club,
were up when Paul Jones won the
Kentucky Derby and the Belmont
Suburban in 1920. But Parr once
said:
MY horses are nothing more than
hobbies. What I'm chiefly interested
in is my business"
Built Up Big Business.
The insurance brokerage firm he
built up Is one of the largest in
Maryland.
Parr said his interest in horses
began when he was 4 years old and
his father gave him goat.
IT figured horse was four times
as big and would be four times as
much fun," he explained. His first
winner was Uncle Jake in a 500
purse at Timonium, Nd, in 1895.
He registered his colors early in the
1900s and they have not missed q
season since.
His Victory Morn won the Rich
ard johnson Stake at Laurel Satur-
day. Other horses he has owned
included MasQuerader, who set two
new track records as q 2-year-old in
1914: Her Grace, winner Of the
Maryland Handicap in 1880; Legal
Light, a stake winner two years ago,
and Hypocrite, which won last year.

He formed the syndicate which
brought the great French stallion
Aethelstan to this country in 1896.
Parr, who suffered a stroke at
Saratoga in 1885, was stricken with
another last night in the historic
Maryland Club and died q few hours
later. With him was his wife, the
former Mrs. Sonia Walsh Whitman,
whom he married In 1881. His flrst

5-Round TopIiner
BY LEWIS ATCHISON,

A couple of clean-cut young giants

Novak, bull-becked national amateur
champion, and in the other, tall,
graceful Jimmy De Chard of this

the local boy will make good.
Amateur restrictions limit the en-
gagement to five rounds, but those
brief periods will be packed with
dynamite. De Chard's vaunted right
is primed for quick knockout VIC
tory over the champion. and Novak
has no intention of dropping the
duke to a comparatively unknown
youngster, and they'll probably stand
toe to toe and pour hot leather at
one another until one drops, or at

Boxing three years now, Novak

the few young men conceded a
chance of making some headway in
professional ring career, but oddly
enough, his goal at this time is the
United States Olympic team next

De Chard is former District A.

titleholder and one of the finest
ring prospects ever unearthed in
this territory. Under the mana
gership of frankie Mann the hand
some Southwest youngster has been
brought along slowly, engaging in
frequent out-of-town bouts to pre-
pare him for proposed profess

Jimmy has shown improvement with
each added start.

New Head Of Browns
Is Declared Sought
By One Faction rs
Barnes Seen as FoiIinq
To Get Results After
Three Years on Job
BY the Associated Press.

by LEe Associated freSS.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 1.-THE Sport
ing News, national baseball publi-
cation, says there is an inclina-
ton among the "left wing" of the
Board of Directors of the St. Louis
Browns to demand the resignation
of Don Barnes. president of the
club, at the boards annual meeting
this month.
This faction, the newspaper says,
feels that Barnes should retire
after being on the job three years
without getting better results"
The Browns finished in last place
in the American League race twice
and In seventh place once since
Barnes and associates took over the
organization from the heirs Of the
Phil Ball estate in 1896.
"The chief complaint of the dis
contented faction" says the Sport
ing News in its issue this week,
seems to be that they are not taken
into consultation when important
moves are made. Criticism has been
leveled against Bill Dewitt. busi-
ness manager, as well as Barnes"
The publication also said the
American League guaranteed to re-
turn the Browns directors the
100000 subscribed last summer If
the club failed to draw "a certain
total home attendance, presumably
enough to Offset the loan" The
money was raised by the directors
so the club could finish the season
with financial security.
William Harridge, president Of the
league, was quoted in both the st.
Louis Post-Dispatch and Globe
Democrat as saying the league had
not made any such guarantee. "We
have no fund that could be used for

Struggles This Week
Likely to Enhance
Dixie Prestige
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, Jr.
Acsoria tAd prAee Enorfe VI1r}tnp

Associated Press Sports Writer.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-Looking at
things entirely from the intersec-
tional angle this likely Is to be
about the biggest week Of the 1899
football season and another one
which will enhance the prestige Of
Southern football.
On a percentage basis Southern
teams still are below the 500 mark
in their major encounters with
Northern rivals, but in the matter Of
glory they're tops and apparently
headed still higher. Duke over COL
gate, Alabama over Fordham, LOU
isiana State over Holy Cross, Mis-
sissippi State over Arkansas and
Vanderbilt over Rice have been
major Southern triumphs against
other sections. Then there have
been such equally amazing affairs as
the close scores of Georgia Tech
against Notre Dame and Furman,
Centre and Virginia, which didn't
figure to win at all, against Army
and Navy.
This weeks program appears
much the same sort of stuff, al
though the East figures to get of to
a head start when Boston College,
apparently powerful though still un-
tried, faces twice-beaten Florida on
Thursday.
Tar Heels Picked Over N. Y. U.
North Carolina, with a wealth of
fine backs including those touch
down twins" George Stirnweiss and
Jim La lame, figures to have the
better Of New York University.
Fordham doesn't appear strong
enough to stop Tulane at New Or
leans. So far, the Rams have been
a one-track team without the line
to make their power plays effective.
Duke, invading the North, should
be able to tackle Pitts Panthers at
least on even terms. although the
game should differ vastly from last
years test of sheer power. Georgia,
of its loss to Furman, isn't quite
good enough to handle Holy Cross
unless all those injury stories from
Worcester are true.
Bringing the Southwest into the
argument, Rice and Louisiana State
should have a whale of a tussle
and Texas A. and M, apparently the
strongest Of the Southwest Confer
ence teams, may get a real argu-
ment from Villanovas powerful out
fit. Southern Methodist, which
hasn't shown a great deal yet, Is a
good possibility to upset Notre
Dame. which has had two close
squeaks so far. Texas Christian, de-
throned champions, likely will find
long trip and fairly good Tenn
pie team too much to overcome.
Texas Oklahoma Hot.
Another great tussle may be that
between Texas, winner of two i'm
portant intersectional games so far,
and Oklahoma, which tied S. M. U.
and trimmed Northwestern. Their
conference schedules put them in
different sections though they're not
so far apart.
The Midwest figures to break
about even with Carnegie Tech, pos
sibly the East's best team, rated we'll
ahead of Case and Harvard over
Chicago, while Detroit figures to
take" Catholic University in the
leading East-West contests. Kansas
and Kansas State of the Big Six
shouldn't have any serious trouble
against Colorado and Colorado State
but Illinois, unless cagy Bob Zuppke
has something important up his
sleeve, doesn't appear to be a match
for Southern California.
