SPORTS PARADE

There was a time when his Athlet-
les were the most fearsome team in
baseball. when Lefty Robert Moses
Grove was smokin' his fast one to
Black Mike Cochrane, when muffin
-mouthed Jimmy GoXX and Bucket
foot Al Simmons were crashing
home runs by the dozen, when Dy-
manic Jimmy Dykes was patrolling
the infield.
RULED THE ROOST
That was from 1929 to 1881 be-
fore the depression and unemploy-
ment ate into the vitals of Ameri-
cas- sport structure. For three
straight years, the Athletics ruled
the roost in the American league
and twice captured the world
championship.
But the city of brotherly love
grew blase toward winning base
ball, and Mack was forced to sell
his stars to pay expenses. Richer
owners baited him temptingly and
there was an exodus of high priced
diamond talent to the Boston Red
f0OH, Lilt OJlCdBO VillOS ooH "iAN
the eDtroit Tigers.
ONE OTHER PARALLEL
II was the end Of cycle which
had its parallel from 1910 to 1914
when Mack had perhaps an even
greater assembly of stars including
Eddie Collins, Johnny Coombs,
Chief Bender, Eddie Plank and
Stuffy McInnis. That team won
four pennants and three world titles
until the Boston Braves miracle
team set it down four straight in
the 1914 world series.
Then, as later, Mack sold his stars
and rebuilt with untried young
sters. Then, as now, the AS became
the doormats Of the American
league. finishing in eighth place
seven years in a row from 1915
] through 1921

Kerr
Criies

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec %. CUP)
Coach Andy Kerr reached into
his hip pocket for his crying towel
today and gloomily described his
last Shrine team as among the
worst" he has ever brought here
for the annual New Years day
classic with the west.
This squad of ours is merely the
best we were able to get together
under existing conditions" he de-
clared. only II of the "a players
are seniors Three are freshmen
The rest have only one or two years
of college football behind them"
Kerr said the west had "a big
edge" from the standpoint of weight
and experience.
GAME ALREADY LOST
Coach Babe Hollingbery of the
west, Kerr intimated, practically
won the game when he signed up
five stars from the strong fourth
air force team.
The east squad was scheduled to
attend a big ten university club
luncheon today. Both teams will
be entertained by the Shrine to-
morrow, then the east departs for
its headquarters at Santa Clara,
while the west heads for Menlo
Junior college.

BURLINGTON, Wis, Dec. %.
UP)-Two lawyers, with long eH-

their income tax returns, were sell

Otis C. Hulett, president OF the
Burlington Liars club, apnounce1
that Attorneys Gilbert A. Karche"
and f. j. Cook will judge civilian
entries.
IF anyone tries to slip over an
entry that isn't a bona fide fib,
Karcher and Cook will spot it i'm
mediately," Hulett said.
Hulett and L. j. Stang will judge
the entries of American and Brit
iSh Servicemen.
I'm the past two years we have
been getting more and more entries
from the men in service Hulett
said Even a total war can't wipe
out the old American sense Of hum
or"
Hulett cited the prevarication en-
tered by Howard Fleming, San Jose,
Cal, as a sample Of what to expect
in the 1943 contest which vii. be
conducted New Years Eve.
According TO Fleming, "Old
Smoothie,' killer wolf, decimated
the herds of Montana sheep ranch
erS. For months, the ranchers sought
unsuccessfully to trail the sly beast
TO his den.
A tenderfoot eaSterper accom-
! plished the feat with a home movie
camera. He photographed "Old
Smoothie' as the wolf loped over
a hill. Then he projected the film
backwards on a screen and back
trailed the wolf 13 miles to his
hideout.

And that includes the earlier

Boston Red Sox, whose offensive
power was riddled more severely
than that of any other club in the
league by draft losses, presented the
best defensive organization in the
American circuit, according to Of
ficial figures released today.
ERRORLESS DOERR
Paced by second baseman Bobby
Doerr, who set a new major league
record for consecutive chances ac-
cepted by a second baSeman with
out error. Joe CroninS team headed
the loop with a club defensive mark
of .976. a point ahead OF the ST.
Louis Browns and the Cleveland
Indians who tied for second.
ALSO LED FIELDERS
In addition to the new major
league record, Doerr led the junior
circuits second sackerS with a field
ing average of .990-only one point
behind the Amor League record set
by Oscar Melillo of the st. Louis
Browns in 1870 games 10 years ago.
Doerr played in 155 games ana
handled ola chances with only nine
errors.
Doerr, who, incidentally, swatted
the home run that started the AM
erican Leaguer'S to victory in the
All-Star game, set his consecutive
chances record in very convincing
fashion. Starting on May 20, the
25 year old right handler played
flawless defensive bali until the
first game of double-header on
July 23-handling 349 chances with
out a boot The old record, held
by Melillo and set in 1888, was 27l.
ONLY I53 ERRORS
As a team, the Red SoX handled
6.323 chances during the season
with 1853 errors. The all-time Ameri-
can League fielding record of 97o
was set by the Philadelphia Ath-
leticS in 1882.
Trailing Cleveland and st. Louis
by another point, the New York
Yankees finished fourth in club
standing with 974, Chicago anG
Philadelphia each posted a .973 and
trailing with .97l were the Detroit
Tigers and the Washington Sena-
tors.
BYRNES BREAKS TOP
Rookie outfielder Milt ByrneS of
the st. Louis Browns, get off on
the right foot in the big leagues
with a .997 fielding average, break
ing the 10-year-old mark of .996 set
by Dick Porter of Cleveland.
OUT DOES HIMSELF
Rudy York, the Detroit Tiger first
baseman and major league home
run king, handled 149 assists to sur
pass his own mark of lac set year
ago.
Cleveland's youthful manager, Lou
BOudreau, set a new record Tor
double plays handled by short
stop with 122.
First bas fielding honors were
split between veteran Joe Kuhel Of
the Chicago White SoX and rookie
Mickey Rocco of Cleveland. Both
compiled averages of .995. Mickey
Vernon, Warrington firt saker, tied
the league record for the number of
double plays handled at his posi-
ton in one game-five.
Eddie Mayo of Philadelphia led
third basemen with a fielding mark
of .976, although given his release
late in the season.

the recommendations of this con-
ference for expanded food produc-
ton under a coordinated world
economy.
Although this conference is eX-
ploratory in nature and is not en-
powered to make commitments for
any government, Smith read into
the proceedings a definite threat
to constitutional government in the
United States.
AS interpreted by Smith, the pro-
posals now before the food confer
ence would result in control of
world prices within specified limits
also control and regulation OF pro-
duction and consumption in indiyi-
dual countries within certain limits
also regulation Of prices of all COM
modities produced by private mon
opolies and cartels."
Smith, who is barred from COM
mittee sessions and gets his infor-
nation as best he can, said he also
understood that some one in high
authority has indicated to delegates
