son and Ernie White

Howie Schultz, the $4,000 st.

ROOKIE PROFICIENT

The q year old rookie, who was
imported to succeed popular Dolph
Camilli now Wivered and retired =,
proved surprisingly proficient at
bat and on the bag, despite his
bean pole appearance. He collected
a double and a single in four times
against Cooper, Murry Dickson and
Ernie White. Meanwhile, afield,
the giraffe displayed Gazellian
traits, particularly in the seventh
inning when he made a running
scoop and throw of Stan Musials
steaming grounder while pitcher
White wyatt protected the bag.
And as a target at the busy corner,
HoWie was rangy and receptively
perfect.
While the crowd of 1907 cheered
the newcomer with Brooklyn fervor,
baseball experts began comparing
him with long George Kelly, an
other right handed first baseman
of similar build and altitude who
was spire Of strength with the
Giants from 1921 to "a and who
now coaches the Braves. The ex-
perts pointed out than Hank
Greenberg, former first baseman of

NEW YORK, Aug. II CUP) -
Baseball experts today were hailing
the pitching of Schoolboy Rowe as
one of the greatest comebacks
ever seen III the National League.
The long highlander, who was
leading the league in a number of
hurling departments 1G years ago,
was given up for lost by the
Brooklyn Dodgers last season and
was released to the Montreal farm
club in the international League.
Winning only two games and losing
one Rowe was sold by Montreal to
the Philadelphia Phillies in March
Of this year.
But last night. Rowe hurled his
18th victory, one of the top records
in the league, to defeat the Chicago
Cubs, 4-3, with a five hit per-
Torrance. The victory put money
in Rowe's pockets as his contract
called for a bonus of 1000 if he
won more than 10 games and an
additional S10O for every victory
thereafter.
