 DOES HIS tg4
 2. TALKING
By FRANKLIN BANKER AP Feature Service

PITTSBURGH.-Frankie Gustine. who says he is a descendant of Daniel Boone, is using a baseball bat-not a rifle--to bang his way to fame
 This mere lad, only 20 and in his fourth year of professional baseball, is hitting the ball at a .320 clip and doing swell in- fielding job for the Pittsburgh Pirates in his first year of major league competition.
 Frankie seems imbued with some of the spirit and determina- tion of the great Kentucky fighter and woodsman. And his sparkling play is sweet balm to the Pirates financial department - smarting under the hurt of $l50,000 double flop in the persons of Pitcher John Gee and Catcher Ray Mueller.
 They've both gone pack to the minors 9ind Gustine, picked up for a song on option from Gads- den of the Southeastern League, is one of the years prize rockies.
 You'd never guess it, though, from Frankies behavior.
 Out to Make Good
 He's as quiet as mouse. After hard days work he slips off to the movies or a game of pool. He shuns all bad habits and performs on the diamond with only ono thought: I'm going to make good"
 It was an important decision that he made back in Parker High School, Chicago, four years ago Adept at basketball as well as baseball, he, was offered four year university scholarship. He chucked that to sign with Paducah of the Kitty league as third baseman. He's glad that he did.
 Pilot Frankie Frisch put him or second base this year And is Frisch pleased!
 Hes got a great future says the Bucs' chief. Why, he's play ing the1 hitters better in his first year than I did in my third. Bad Runner
 He must correct his running, though. He needs longer stride instead of that puppy run"
 Unlike most ball players, Gus tine had to be told to eat more steaks, beef, potatoes and vege- tables. He lost 12 pounds during the first six weeks of the season.
 Like most ball players, he's gobbling up the biggest steaks he can find, now.
 He's six feet tall, weighs l75 He's a good locker, with the kind of blue eyes and long eyelashes that girls go for. But Frankie has no time for girls, he says:
 I'm just out to play ball.

LOS ANGELES-Willowy Jeane Hofmann firmly believes that some where there is a steady job for the girl sports writer -cartconist in the country, and she's doing her best to find it.,
 Some six years ago Miss Hofmann, then a Los Angeles High School stu dent looked over the possibilities for women in journalism and chose one of the least crowded-sports. Tn fact, she couldn't discover a single girl in this field.
 She started her career as the sports editor of her High School pa per. although some of her young male rivals didn't like the idea very much.
 Now she contributes cartoon and story a week to the Hollywood Cit izen News, and until recently had had a womans page in a weekly sports magazine issued here. It fold ed up, much to Jeane's disappoint- ment.
 She Likes Baseball
 At one time she covered the Holly wood baseball clubs fortunes in the Pacific Coast League for the Citi- zen-News, and discovered that base ball was one of her favorite sports. It still is, although ice hockey because it's faster and tougher is her top choice, but
 T like all sports, although I'm strictly a spectator participant"
 Does she run into much opposition from the ;hardier males in pursuing her careef?' H
 Well, yes. Sometimes the boys in press box, but after they get at first seem to resent my presence used to me everything is fine. The only real rebuff I ever got in trying to land a job was from a San Fran cisco sports editor, He told me-and I appreciated his frankness-that he wouldn't have woman within two blocks of his department"
 Jeane,, just turned 2l, visited the Chicago Cub baseball camp at Santa Catalina island this spring, and had a great time with Gabby Hartnett and his players. It was there. she said, that she met her most inter esting sports personality"
 His name? Dizzy Dean.
 The Woman's Touch
 Tall, blonde, with eyes little bit green, a little grey, Jeane displays marked talent in her drawings and gives her story material a distinct feminine touch.
 T think" she explains, that since there are so many women who follow sports, they would be interested in the impressions, angles and views of woman writer. I just know I'm right"
 Miss Hofmann was born in Los Angeles, but her parents came from Savannah, Ga Both are hoping she fulfills her ambitions, which are:
 ITO get a job and to be famous. want to be famous most of all" concluded the only girl sports writer cartoonist in the country.
