The
SPORTLIGHT
Yankees Main Trouble
Held Largely Mental
Bv GRANTLAND RICE,
Special Correspondent of The Star.

As you bump around the map,
from spot to spot, there is one ques-
ton set in this vein that dominates
all arguments today-"what has
happened to the Yankees?" No one
could figure that ball club rated
at 1-to-3 against the field, the
shortest price in all baseball his
tory, could drop to last place by
losing eight games in row.
Just as the Yankees headed West
I first ran into Bill Dickey and Joe
Flash Gordon. They looked about
as cheerful as some one headed for
the guillotine. Arkansas Bill, one
of the deadliest crucial hitters in
baseball, was slightly over 100. Cor
don wasn't much better.
1t took no keen eyesight to see
that while both still had their heads
up, there was a turmoil boiling up
in their ball playing souls. The same
thing had happened to Charlie
Keller, a 1874 hitter in his freshman
year.
What had happened? None Of
the three could figure it out. They
were in daZe.

Must Be Contagious"
Mccarthy Complains

I could see what the main trou-
BILE was-largely worry. You can
handle a slump for few days. But
when it begins to stretch out you
have nightmares. A slump feeds on
a slump. 1t stays with you in your
dreams.
But for such ball players as Bill
Dickey. Joe Gordon and Charlie
.~ Keller it can't last forever. One or
two good days-and then you can
begin to hear again the roar of the
old artillery.
"I've never seen anything like this
. In baseball before" Joe Mccarthy
said. I've been around a long time,
but this beats me. We have no
alibis. We suddenly dropped into a
rut that hit almost the entire team.
You know a rut or a slump can
begin to spread. mean spread from
one man to another. 1t must be
contagious. But I never figured 1t
could cover the ball players we
have"

Stors Trying Too Hord,
MANAGER Feors

asked Mccarthy what he thought
would happen on this Western trip.
They plastered us in the Yankee
Stadium" he said. but don't be-
lieve they can hold us down much
longer. We have about the same
ball club that ran away from both
leagues last year.
I'D say, so far, it is largely men
tai. Maybe those four pennants and
World Series years removed some OF
the keen edge a team needs.
"The trouble is several of our best
men are trying too hard-Dickey.
Gordon and Keller They are all
winning types, and they have never
had ruts or slumps of this type be-
fore. I know how they feel. But
there's nothing much to do in a
case of this kind until the slump
finally wears itself out. We have
too many good ball players on this
club to be in the second division
long, much less last place"
We'll get going soon,' Dickey
said, but it's been tough
A slump always is hard to explain,
even when it nails only one man.
When it spreads through an entire
team it is even tougher to figure out.
Lost Win Over Bosox
Deemed Helpful
Sundays victory over the Red Sox
with Red Ruffing at his best, un-
doubtedly had a soothing effect on
jumpy nerves. 1t certainly was
big help to harried Joe Mccarthy
who had been watching such great
ball players as Dickey, Gordon, Gro
setti and Keller tied up in snarl
of helpless effort.
This Western invasion is one of
the most important in Yankee his
tory. They can't afford to be mani
kins with a snapped string much
longer. 1t won't be any easy road
but they are long overdue and once
started on the uphill turn they soon
will be back in sight of the top.
They may not win again and if
they do it will be only by narrow
squeak but they will be up there
swinging before many more days
have passed.
The tide will turn when their
mental attitude turns and when Bill
Dickey, especially, regains his old
form. And Bill isn't yet 80 years
old

DALLAS, June 5.-Or Diz Deans
light grew fainter today-sadly
down here in Texas where its glare
was binding just decade ago.
The plodding farm boy who quit
the rear ranks of an infantry unit
at Fort Sam Houston (San Antonio)
II years ago to lend professional
baseball his brilliance and eccen-
tricities, still fans the flicker re-
manning from a stunning career.
Diz Dean is back in the Texas
League. optioned to Tulsa by the
Chicago Cubs. The comeback he
talked three months ago has died
in the muscles of a tired pitching
arm.
Not Concerned Over Pay.
