10, BIG Chief
AT LAST BITES
DIAMOND DUST
Indian Player Strikes Out
After TRIPPING to Brief
Fame
by WILLIAM J. TUCKER

United Press STAR Correspondent
Atlanta, Ga, June !. (UP)-Pity
the poor Indiani
In this case, the Redskin down
on his luck Is Big Chief Woody
Arkeketa, lately Of the Chatta-
nooga Lookouts OF the Southern
Association and the Selma Clover
leafs Of the Southeastern League.
Just like his forebears, Arkeketa
was pushed into the interior. He
got as far back In the bushes as
Selma and by that time he had
slumped 30 afleld and at bat that
he was given his outright release.
Thus apparently passes one OF
the more interesting figures OF
Dixie baseball. Other players who
have crossed his trail carry stock
Of Arkeketa lore and many are the
tales Of the big Cherokee's be-
havior on and OIL the diamond.
Home Hun? Ugh!
The classic goes back several
years 10 when the chief was play.
Ing third base for Pensacola In the
Southeastern.
Arkeketa was tied with "satchel
Foot" Joe Hutchinson for the most
three-base hits In the league.
Pensacola and Montgomery were
hooked UP In q tight game and the
score was tied In the ninth inning
Up stepped Arkeketa to the plate
and smote mighty blow to right
geld. He went around the bases on
deer feet but when he reached
third he stopped although the ball
was still rolling around In the out
field.
The next man went out and Ar
keketa didn't score. As the teams
changed sides, the young Pensacola
pitcher, who badly needed the game
for his record, asked the Indian
why In blazes he hadn't run home.
Arkeketa draw himself UP to his
6feet 2, gave the pitcher q stony
glance and said: ugh. Me lead
league In triples"
The Fans Delight
Managers must hasle been len
lent, for the next season found the
Indian holding down the hot cor
ner for the Birmingham Barons.
He hit around 800 and batted
1000 with the customers, who took
delight In setting up war whoops
when he came to bat.
Snowman Joe Engel Of Chatta.
noog asensed Arkeketa,s value as q
fan attraction and bought him for
this years Lookouts.
Engels opening-day stunt was q
fake scalping Of Arkeketa to avenge
Custer.
But the Indians ball-playing
slumped SO badly that eve nhis color
couldn't Offset 1t. And when Man
ager XII Xxi Cuyler shook up the
club in an effort to get 1t Of the
botto mabout two weeks after the
season started, Arkeketa was ticket
ed for the Lookout's Selma farm.
The chief at first refused TO he
port to the South Alabama club
and when he did get there he was
overweight and otherwise In poor
condition. He couldn't cannect with
the Glass B pitching and the steam
had gone out Of his throwing arm.
Then he was dropped uncondi-
tionally, and another Redskin had
hit the dust.

St. Mary's Oppose
St. Francis Monday
In Crucial Game

Slapped down by the big sticks
OF the Sacred Hearts In Mondays
parochial league upset, 81. Mary's
league-eading club will have TO
play more than @ good" ball game
II they expect 10 come out on the
winning end OF the battle with st,
Francis Monday afternoon at
Washington park.
For the big news on Washington
Hill today was: Joe Mccarthy will
be back on the mound.
The ST. Francis hurting ace has
not been warming the bench for
the past few weeks. The seat he
warmed was the dentists chair, and
IL proved so hot that he was un.
able to toss them up for his nine,
However, he pulled out OF II lust
IN time TO try TO bring his boys
through the crucial test Monday
afternoon.
Won ., Lost ]
st. Mary'S, smarting from the
unexpected setback at the hands
OF the third-place Hearts, will take
the field with nine victories and
one loss, plus the sweet memory OF
the 25-5 shelacking they gave st.
Francis at the beginning OF the sea-
son. Burning them IN will be Ray
Davis, whose speed and stuff has
put him In the parochial Hall OF
Fame with one no-hitter and two
three-hit games TO his credit.
Their artillery will show Tom
Kenny and Johnny Egan, whose
clouts TO date make them two OF
the most feared hitters in the
league.
Back Of Joe Mccarthy, st. Fran
els will have a Well-knit, disciplined
unit whom Coach Bill Curley has
groomed particularly for this game.
Moreover, st. Francis was not set
back last Monday, but took st.
Thomas by 9-8 score.
st. Francis will also be backed by
their drove Of supporters flocking
10 the home field to watch their
club try 70 snatch the penant from
Harry Melvin's boys. So plenty OF
action Is promised spectators for
every minute after Bob Grady calls
"Batters Up" and the game, on
which may hinge the victory ban
quet, gets underway.

CLUB OWNERS
NOT INCLINED
TO help YANKS
Yawkey Against Repeal
But Wants II to Effect
Red SOx
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY
United Press star Correspondent

UNITED Press star Correspondent
New York, June i-(UP)-Wide-
ly circulated reports that there was
0 strong movement on foot 10 re-
peal the American leagues anti
trade rule for O pennant winner at
the midsummer meeting In July
have proved 10 be unfounded ac-
cording TO a poll OF tho club own
ers by the United Press.
The rule obviously directed at
the Yankees hit the New York
club harder than anyone expected
because OF injuries 10 the clubs two
right-handed hitting outfielders,
Joe DiMaggio and Jake Powell. DE-
Maggie missed the first Is games
because OF knee injury and Pow
ell Is still out recovering from q
skull fracture.
The legislation was partly respon-
s!ble for the Yanks' slump, during
which cordinary southpawS looked
like world.beaters against the
Worlds Champions predomlnantly
left-handed hitting lineup. But the
worst Is over now and II takes o
good left-hander TO beat the Yanks.
Nevertheless, the Yanks apparently
are jockeying TO try and kin the
rule. They've made little progress.
OF the club owners polled, the
result four favored retention OF the
rule, two non-commlttal and one
for repeal.
"I'm In favor OF letting the rule
stand" said Tom Yawkey, Red Sow
owner, because II the Red Sox are
lucky enough 10 win want the
rule TO apply to Us. ! voted for II
because OF certain political move
and not because was crazy about
II. But thought another rule that
had been talked about was even
worse. Personally, ! don't like the
rule because think II STILES COM
petition but ! certainly am not In
favor OF 1t applying 10 only the
Yanks and then repeating II so IL
won't apply 10 the next champion"
Clark Griffith OF Washington,
father OF the rule, and Connie Mack
OF the Athletics predicted the leg
islation would live forever"
"Under no circumstances would Z
favor repeal OF the anti-trade rule"
said Griffith. II think its the best
rule ever passed and will live for
ever"
Alva Bradley, Cleveland, went on
record as definitely opposed 10 re-
pealing the rule, saying, "why
should we help the Yanks?"
Walter o. Briggs, Detroit, and
Harry Gardiner, White Sox, were
non committal. Unofficially, Walter
o. Briggs, Jr, who represents the
Tigers at league meetings Is under
instructions TO vote the same way
Clark Griffith does" Gardiner said
II haven't heard O thing about H."
Donald Barnes, Browns, said he
didn't favor the rule when II was
passed and hasn't changed his mind
any since.
I'd Barrow, Yankees, said he
didn't particularly care about what
happened 10 the rule one way or
another. In order to make the leg.

last December Barrow cast his vote
for the rule.
