TO Fog His Emotions
BY DAMON RUNYON

IN CARD playing there are two
lotypes of the siZZler among
losers the inside and outside.
Personally. we are an inside
SiZzler, which is TO say we keep
the heat confined To the bosom.
only rarely permitting il TO eX-
plode.
As a rule, the only way YOU
could tell we were under a SiZZle
would be TO take our pulse and
temperature or break an egg on
the back of our neck.
II would fry 80 rapidly as TO
make il obvious that we were
practically on fire inside. Only
rarely do we exhibit our inward
warmth in such manifestations
as slamming the cards down
with undue force, or shuffling
them with patiently irritable
jerks or dealing them out in
angry little flips. or sharply
questioning the score.
WE PRESUME a flush mounts
w our pallid cheeks and that
a vicious CLEAN appears in our
eyes, but we endeaVor 10 remain
outwardly calm.
We think the inside sizzler Is
more decorous than the outside,
though we are inclined to think
it is greater strain on the
nerves.
They say a horse player who
lets out his emotions in whoop-
ing and hollering like Maurice
Hyams, "the Dancer, or Bill
Corum, the sports writer, lasts
longer than the silent. tense
type.
Ben Bernie, the orchestra
leader, is an inside sizzler at
card playing. He remains exte-
riorly suave and genteel when
the luck is running against him,
but if you will observe his smok-
ing technique while playing you
will get a good line on his in
ward heat.

He's Won 2q5 Games

NEW YORK. May Is. - You

can't ignore Robert Moses lLefty)
Grove.
Looking al him today as he is
now and as he was down through
the years you must wind up ad-
miring him as one of the all-time
greats in the pitching department.
For instance. yesterday he won
his two hundred ninety-fifth game
for the Red Sox of Boston. beat
ing the the New York Yankees.
8 10 4. This is the same Grove who
starred for the Philadelphia Ath-
leticS in their ascendancy, and who
went to the Red SoX for fabu
lous sum, only to become a flop.
He has been kicking around the
major leagues for so many years
that some refuse to believe he is
the same Lefty Grove they knew
and heard about in the past.
