At Bawling Out From

BROOKLYN, June 81 -(R- AS
an official of the Brooklyn Dodgers
said today: "Nossir, there's never
a dull moment around good old
Ebbets Field.
Luke Hamlin, the Flatbush Fusi-
leers' only 20-game winner last
year, is hiding out now, brooding
over a bawling-out he got last
Tuesday from President Larry
MacPhail.
1t was noted two days ago that
Hamlin was absent from the
Brooklyn bench, but MacPhail was
so busy raising sand about the
beaning of Joe Medwick that he
didn't get around to the strange
case of Luke until today.
"He Hamlin) has a habit of
threatening to desert his team,
said the red-head. THE other day
l told him to go home in a hurry
if that is what he wanted to do
So Luke apparently lit out. He
could not be raised at his apart
ment here, and it Was thought
possible he had gone to his home
at Lansing, Mich.
Hamlin, who is famous for his
home run BALI, incurred Mac
Phail's wrath by blowing 4 to {
and 5 to 3 leads over the Cardinals
on Tuesday, the same day Med
wick was laid low. Medwick came
out of the hospital yesterday and
probably will be back in the Lineup
within a week, but the Hamlln
situation threatens to linger on
What Luke can't understand is
why MacPhail should suddenly be-
come violent about his home run
BALI. After all, Hamlin used the
same pitch last year, allowing ar
average of one homer each 10 In
nings for the season. Yet he was
acclaimed a hero.
His loss would prove a serious
one. to the flag-chasing Dodgers
With all his laxity in the pinches,
Luke has a winning record OF

the Cincinnati Reds with a two.
