NEW YORK-Beware Of the st.
Louis Cardinals-thatw was the hot
test tip along the National league
front today despite the fact that
the Cincinnati Reds had moved
back into the league leadership.
Billy Southworth has given
the Cards shot In the arm
and It's taken hold overnight.
Since SOuthworth became
pilot Of the Cards they have
not lost ball game and have
won five straight. They are
talking pennant even though
they are In fifth place.
Those pitchers who couldn't win
for Ray Blades are making South
worth look like a magician. He's
started five pitchers and four of
them have gone the route. Three
of his starters. Cooper, Warneke
and Shoun, have turned in A.
hitters.
Southworth p1ucked Clyde
Shoun. the southpaw hurler, who
hasn't pitched a complete game
since 1888. right out of the bull
pen yesterday and beat the
Dodgers with him, 81. After
relieving in "a games Shoun was
promoted to starting role by
Southworth and the dark-haired
lefthander responded by holding
the Dodgers to four singles.
JOE HANDCUFFED
Shoun handcuffed Joe Medwick,
the Dodgers high-priced importa-
ton from st. Louis. holding him
to three popups to the infield and
grounder to short. Medwicks
batting average since he joined
the Dodgers Is .210. He's made
only four hits in 10 times at bat
and driven in only two runs.
1t looks like shrewd Sam
Breadon not only got the money
but the ball player. Ernie koy

to the Cards in the Medwick deal

Come Derbies'
Legality Now
In HIGH Court

OLYMPIA, Wash.-The state
supreme court had before 1t to-
day an appeal of a case con-
testing validity Of offering
prizes for fresh-water fishing
or hunting derbies.
The case was appealed by the
state which failed to convict
Beryl S. Miles, Olympia sport
ing goods dealer, of violating
a state game commission regu-
lation against offering prizes
for hunting or displaying game
fish or birds.
He contended the regulation
was in excess of the commits
sion's authority. The case does
not involve salmon derbies and
other contests on salt water.

Mrs. Garfield said she covered
Is or 20 miles each day, timing
her schedule so she could be
on hand each night at some

talk and a good meal"
At times she rode horseback. At
others she used her skis. Once
she walked IA miles through slushy
snow because the skis couldn't be
manipulated. Her trip took 10

their delegates to the convcn-
