Mats Sign UhIe, Once Slab Ace
with Tribe, to Coach HurIers

New York Giants and the Yankees
before retiring In 1884.
The big right-hander was a ball
Of fire with the Tribe. His fast ball
had plenty of zip and his curve was
a marvel, Bluege recalls. He was
the toughest I ever faced" Ossie
says. 1T always was particularly
bad day for me when Uhle was out
there pitching"
Bengouxh Likely to Go.
He was at his peak in the mid-20s
and in 1925 had a season OF 27 vic
tories with an earned-run average
Of 283.
Since his pitching days Uhle has
done scouting for big league clubs at
times and one spring was baseball
coach at Cornell University. He
never has been in the minors.
Uhle's appointment probably
means that Benny Bengough, for
mer Yankee catcher, who has been
coach in charge of Nat pitchers the
past four years, will be dropped by
the club. This was not planned
when Bluege sought the one-time
Cleveland star, but now that Uhle
has been signed there seems no
place for Bengough with the Mats.

Pitching statistics for the Amer

the Mats were able to spring their
surprising second-place finish. No
less than seven of the Washington

This made the Washington staff
the fourth best in the circuit with
an average earned-run yield per
game of 3.18, not so far behind the
Cleveland Indians fingers, but well
of the leading 293 mark set by
New York's Yankee pitchers.
Cold figures show Mickey Haefner
tops among the Mats. The doughty
southpaw pitched II victories
against defeats for fifth rating
on percentage and had an earned
run average of 2.29, which also
placed him fifth in that respect.
Great Year for Chandler.
Early Wynn was the clubs biggest

MaurieIIo-MarshaII
Promise Hot Bout

Another good scrap is in the off,
ing at Uline Arena a week from
tomorrow night - between Tami
Mauriello of New York and Herbert
Marshall of Brooklyn.
This is a 10-round heavyweight
affair between two fast BOYS.
They're speedier than most heavy
weights, being little more than
overgrown light-heavies. Marshall
weighed 17612 in his last match
here and could do business among
the light-heavyweights except that
ne has the ability to tangle with
the heavyWeights and finds it pays
more
Mauriello reached the heavy
ranks in one jump from the middle
weights. He once knocked out
Washington's Steve Mamakos as a
middleWeight. Since then he's de-
feated such heavyweights as Lou
Nova "a knockouJ, Bob Pastor and
Lee Savold. He is rated the No. 2
heavyweight behind Jimmy Bivins.
In bringing back Marshall for
main event after he was defeated
in his last match here, Promoter
Goldie Ahearn believes Marshall's
showing against Joe Baksi was
enough to warrant another chance
and that the fight he put up that
time also will attract a goodly num-
Der Of customers to see him again.
After all" says Goldie, that Baksi
outweighed him so pounds editors
note-25 pounds is correct and sill
this Marshall almost beats him.
Give Marshall somebody that
weighs about the same and he's
liable to 60 places"
Marshall is a sharp puncher and
good boxer whose stinging lefts did
worry Baksi quite bit when they
fought at Uline last month. 1t was
a rousing battle, with Baksi's weight
and reach advantage the telling
( factors.
