St. Thomas Holy Name Sportographs

With Father Donnelly hitting 90 or better in two games 1t certainly IS no wonder that Jackie Grout's club captured three games from Eddie Coughlin's club. We sin- cerely hope that the worthy chap lain will continue his very good work.
 Winnie Mole failed to wear his toe and heel steel plates that are neces. sary for his intricate one-two step that he uses in bowling delivery and as e result the genial Winnie only rolled games of 88, 0S and S6,
 The Holy Name card tournament has gotten underway with "45', set. back and pinochle being played. The lads will gather again tomorrow evening at the club rooms and any man of the parsh that would like to get in this excellent entertain ment it isn't too late yet.
 Dennis Hickey, ye olde dog fam cier, has given up the idea of teach- ing his trick dog Hugo" to sing, since the local gendarmes acting on complaints from several residents paid him visit the earleir part of the week. Some people just don't appreciate art, says Dennis.
 Jackie Grout led his team to high three game honors with a brilliant average of S63 that gave his club a total pinfall of 1891 but 1t was left to that sage of LitchfIeld, Bill Weir, to capture individual high single laurels for the night with a l36.

 New York. Nov. 6-~(UP)-~Sparks from the Hot Stove league:
 Based chiefly on trade feelers rem other National legaue clubs, ArKy Vaughan, star shortstop of the Pitts burgh Pirates, would vi ma popular" ity contest in Q breeze. Vaughan, who almost snared the hero role m this years All.star classic by belt" ing two home runs, has been the object of barter gestures on the part of the Brooklyn Dodgers, Cincin:. natl Reds and Chicago Cubs. All are willing to part with star piay- ers for the fleet-footed Vaughan but Brooklyn appears to have the inside track.
 if the Philadelphia Phiilies do not pull any swaps before next sea- son stArtS--and that's like expecting them to win the pennant In leA2-- they will have one of the finest young pitching staffs in baseball Hugh Mulcahy, who recently pc. came 1B, is expected to he discharged from the army in January and VIII return to a mound corps made up of Frank Hoerst, Ike Pearson, Tom- my Hughes and Johny Podajny. Rookie southpaw Paul Masterson also is given an excellent chance to make good.
 Manager Joe Cronin of the Boston Red 5ox reveals little news about his IoA2 club but he is enthused about Canadian scuthpaw Oscar Judd. Judd won i3 and lost five for Louis" vile in the American association Tn 24 games he pitched l4S innings, allowed i43 hits, struck out B2, walked 57 and gave up 60 runs. Along with Dick Newsome, Earl Johnson, Tank Terry, Tex Hughson and Charley Wagner, he is expected to form Cronin's pitching crew for AZ.
 The Sporting News lis conducting 6 poll among baseball fans to deter mine the "veteran player of the year." There were 4e long-service performers, 26 in the American league and a in the National. There are three selections allowed and If yUu ~ ANNAAA AAAy AVSAAS HsSAAsao 'em, here's . good guess-Johnny Cooney Of the Boston Braves, Bill Dickey of the New York Yankees and Billy Herman of the Brooklyn Dodgers.
 Apparently winning the National league pennant has had a soporific effect on Larry MacPhail of the Brooklyn Dodgers because election day has come and gone and he hasn't spent a cent for new players. This time last year, MacPhail already thad obtained Kirby Higbe and Mickey Owen.
 Veteran Johnny Cooney of Boston has a potent batting record as his second place finish in the National league last season with .3i9 atteSts, but 1t also has a peculiar angle. Coney has played in 100 or more games for the past six seasons but only in 1889 did he hit any home runs. That year he hit two.

Two of the better known Chase Grand street office bowling league members are engaged In c terrific struggle for a large stake, the win- ner to be decided by the greatest improvement in average over last year, plus the handicap. At the present writing, if our source of in- formation is correct, the challenger is leading with plenty to spare. More about this later.
 The Supplies team is at last nv- Ing up to the preseason expecta- tions of its captain by again coming through with three nice games of 574, 5S4 and 572 for a total of 1880. There should be plenty of excite ment this week when they meet the league leading Purchasing Dept. team, an aggregation that Is also "hot" at the moment.
 Because of the disappointing show ing of his Sales team A. B. Barker has decided to postpone any more business trips Thursday nights. Tak- ing advantage of his absence, the Purch Dept. team, with Gus Reihl and vickery showing the way, won all four points.

Packers Explode Bad Bears InvincibiIity Myth
But RsVePsoI Should Moke Chicago Club Even Tougher
By BURTON BENJAMIN CVEA Service stan COsTespondentl

 Chicago.-The aura of football invincibility has been shattered once again to the anazeTnent of every expert--synthetlc and genuine and most of the coaches of the National Professional league.
 Those swashbuckling men from Mars the bulky, battering Chicago Bears, have gone the way of ell great football teams--defeated In 6 stunning l6-l4 upset by the Green Bay Packers.
 Knocked out of the league lead and shorn of their halo, the Bears still rank as the greatest football organization of the country.
 Here was e team which had scored l09 points-averaging better than 40 per game-to their oppo- nents' 52 in their first five cham pionship contests.
 Including the Packer game, they have gained @ whopping 1OS0 yards by rushing, 109i by passing and % by laterals for a total of 2266.
 The opposition has been held to & meaBef DOS yhEuo py AHttup VVS " e0 for a total of i2i6.
 The Bears ran up 60 points against Cleveland, S3 against the Chicago Cardinals, 49 against Detroit, and 3A against Pittsburgh.
 There were indications in two pre- season games that the Bears could be halted. They had no circus re- polling the New York Giants, l4.s, in Chicago. Dr Jock sutherland's young Brooklyn Dodgers kicked three field goals to lead 9-7 with just 37 seconds remaining ct Eb- bets Field.
 At this point, Bill Leckonby of the Dodgers got off 0 beautiful punt and fleet George McAfee ran 1t back 76 yards for the winning score,
