Failure as Hitter, DieckeImon
Out for Slab Glory at G. IT,;
Hoyos ToppIe Harvard

when not pitching, Dieckelman has
been full-blown bust at the plate
thus far. polling only one hit in eight

a bingle and yesterday two Harvard
chukkers shut him out as George
town splurged for five runs in the
NTH to exc out Ga decision. Sir
Richard was handcuffed.
Coach Judge Optimistic.
But Judge isn't at all worried
about the lads inability to get going.
Two games isn't enough to meas
ure any hitter" he said. Some of
your greatest major leaguers got of
to slow starts and went hitless for
days, not two or three games, but
days And they were looking at
pitching every day. not twice a week
like college boys. When Dieckelman
does start banging the ball they'll
have to get an injunction to stop
him. He has the eye and co-ordina-
ton to be good hitter and know
he'll come through.
Anyway, you'll see pretty good
left-hander when he pitches this
afternoon. Maybe working in right
field has slowed up his pitching,
but I don't think so. If he's right
you'll see No. l thrower and if he
comes through on the hill he won't
have to hit. He's a pitcher pri-
marily and you know what terrible
batters they are"

things sometimes. Baseball, for in

Most golfers know most of the
ball players-and vice versa. Since
most of the ball players like to play
golf or watch the leading profess
sionals and amateurs play it, they
get out to the courses as often as
possible and in that way meet the
golfers This, naturally has spurred
the interest of the golfers-already
strong to begin with in many cases
in baseball.
Right now, with the big league
clubs in the South, the golfers are
talking baseball more than usual

Florida, are fresh from spare time
spent watching the ball players in
action.
They were talking, this morning
about the pennant races that loom
just ahead They were unanimous
in picking the Yankees to win the
pennant and divided in their views
of the National League tussle, being
mainly split between the Reds and

Neither can Navy be underrated
