Paced by its star pitcher, Frank Tracy, who tossed a three-hitter at Mary Abbott players, Hendricken grammar school team of the Amer ican Division, Public School League, kept its record spotless yesterday, by winning IA to 5. Caisse and Steck hit hard for Hendricken.

eighth, when his infield blew up and the Grays shaded him, 3-2, with- out hitting the ball out of the if1- field.
 Honey Boy Knowlton was some what of a sensation with Detroit the following year, but an affable, gentlemanly, quiet, extremely modest and likable country boy couldn't t stand prosperity and the pace of fair weather friends. He got to drinking and carousing, soon drifted down and out and back to the farm. He could have been one of the greatest southpaws of his time.
 A teammate of Knowlton with Rockville of the Connecticut League in 1884 was a young fellow built along the lines of Babe Ruth. Connie Mack and Dan O'Neil, later president of the Eastern League and Linnehan's father and uncle played against Willie Murphy iIl the Connecticut. They agree that Murphy was a natural ball player who broke up games by busting all the balls. He was an. instructive ath. lete standing six-one and weighing 190 pounds. He possessed powerful arm with which he never threw tc the wron base. He was swift or the bases.
 Murphy broke into the National League with Cleveland in 1886 Linnehan's uncle helped execute his contract, because Murphy was all but illiterate. Like Knowlton the big fellow was so quiet. gentle manly and likable that he was known as Gentle Willie. On the ball field, however, they called him Slug ger Murphy.
 The trouble with Murphy, who died several yeards ago in Norwich was that he had Knowton's fatal fault along with his virtues. Despite his batting prowess and all-around ability. he, Cleveland club let him go because he hit the bottle as hard as the ball.
 Elugger Murphy had the requisites to attain Ruthian heights, but, like Honey Boy Knowlton, Louis Soc- kalexis and other lamentable prob lens before and after them, he hac control of everything except himself

They Played the Come" RecolIs Old Thrill And Two More of BoseboIIs Tragic Figures;
 Sad Stories of KnowIton and SIuqger Murphy

New York, May 24-H. W. Lifne- han reads the baseball book, They Played the Game" and recalls boyhood thrill and two more of the sports tragic figures
 Linnehar1's father performed in the minors with Jack Chesbro, and he will never forget the day the first of the spitball pitchers came home with his dad, and the two played with the North Wilbraham, Mass, town team. Linnehar, with the New Britain Machine Co, was bat boy at the time, pictures wildly Happy Jack Chesbro playing an inning at every position except catching. No catching for the handsome right handler who led both major leagues in percentage of victories, but is best remembered as the man who wild-pitched the Highlanders, who were to become the Yankees, out of the pennant on the final play of the final game of the season.
 The sad story of Louie Sockalexis, the fabulous Indian, brings to Lin- nehan's mind two similar cases. There was 8 left-handed kid who developed control by chalking out 6 square on the side of a barn on a Wilbrahann farm, throwing at the target, retrieving the ball and re- beating.
 Young George Knowlton pitched for the Athol, Mass, town team against the Providence Gfays, Na- tional League champions, in Sep- tember, 1884. He had the mighty Providence club shut out in the

'SCOVILL CHASE
 GIRL SOFTBALL HEADLINER TUES.

The I. R. A. Girls Dusty Softbali League goes into its second week with all the preseason favorites having come through the first week of play with flying colors. The only exception was U. s. Time. After the smoke of battle cleared off, what looked like a 6-5 victory for Oak vile Division of Scovills turned out to be a 6-6 tic upon re-check by league officials. The game will be re-played at some date in the near future.
 One of the top clashes of the sea- son looms in tomorrow nights game between the Scovill E.. R. A. entry and the Chase Ofiice combine play ing at Waterville Park. Scovills last seasons champions, are the team to beat again this year. The veteran battery combination of Mary Grimm, pitcher, and Sue Col angelo, catcher, are on hand again this year. Also on hand again are Mary Miklinevich, star third base man, and Captain Ellen McEAandi short fielder. Coach Nelson Squires has obtained additional new strength and predicts another championship season for his charges
 Looks Good
 However, Scovin might well meet their match against Chase Of1ce to- morrow night. Chase Ofi1ce won over Farrel Foundry last week by a record breaking score of A to ?. Captain Gen Luce, all around girl athlete, has her team primed for tomorrow nights game and feels confident of victory
 The Benrus- Waterbury Tool game scheduled for Fulton Park runs a close second to the feature clash in tomorrow nights schedule. Benrus, last years runner up. will be at full strength for the game with the re- turn of Captain Teresa Ficeto to her first base position. Captain Fic- etc received leg injury during the basketball season and 1t was doubt full if she would be able to partici- pate in the early season games, Ron DeLeon, classy third baseman, again holds down that position this year.
 Waterbury Tool, coached by Cliff Slator, drubbed Metal Hose last week by q 12 to score, and is ex- pcted to provide stiff opposition for their opponents tomorrow night.
 U. s. Time, coached by Joe Cav- anaugh, cannot be counted out of the picture, although they received a bad scare in their opening game. They are noted for getting of to a slow start and then coming in strong on the home stretch.
 The complete schedule for tomor- row night is as follows:
 Waterville, No. 1-Chase Office vs

United Press Stan CorrespOndent)
 New York, May 24-(UP)-MaT1- ager Frankie Frisch of the huStling Pirates should be happy as lark with laryngitis to learn that he is responsible, in roundabout fashion, for the envied Cardinals sparkling infleld play.
 Such is the case. Emil Matthew Verban, the "Croatian comet" who scintillates around St. Loos second sack, confessed all last night at the New Yorker, shortly after Billy Southworths glass house gang" ar- rived to launch its eastern tour against Brooklyn today.
 Verban is the dynamic rookie from the Columbus club who removed worry wrinkles from pilot South worth's brow, temporarily at least, when he proved bang-up key- stone replacement for Lou Klein, now in the coast guard. Before the season opened, second base was Southworths biggest problem.
 Now Southworth says, If there has been any feature to our play this season, would say it's verban's work at second. Although only 8 fair hitter, he's a fine fielder-can go to his right or left like a flash; and he's great on double plays. He's certainly a key man in our infleld."
 But whats the connection with Frankie Frisch?
 Slender. brown-haired Verban ex- I plained from a hotel lobby chair He said, I'm 25 now: but when was in high school at Lincoln, Ill where was born-Frisch was my idol. He was playing with the Car dinals then. Because of his fame and my admiration for him I de- cided to become second baseman I read everything I could about him and listened in on the radio when he was playing. I tried to pattern my play after him.
 Idol
 My brothers, Matt and Steve were pretty good semi-pro players They took the Sporting News. I'd go through every issue. looking for pieces about Frisch. Of course, I'd go through the daily papers too. ] was lucky to pick the right man for an idol; the longer play the more I realize what a really great second baseman Frankie was"
 Emil,s home now is at Elkhart H., 8 small farming town. He is in 4-F because of & perforated ear- drum. He has been married for two years, but has no children. He owns a farm of 188 acres outside of Elk hart. During the off-seasons, he helps the farm tenant by doing re- pair work, etc.
 Verban was seasoned with various minor clubs for seven years before joining Columbus for the '43 cam paign. He is delighted to be playing now with the Cards, whom he ad- mired so much in their Gas House days. Now that Pepper Martin is back with the Cards. could Verbar imagine them still the Gas House outfit? Before Emil could answer this question another player-whc had been listening in-interruptet with:
 Now. It seems more like the glas' house gang now; because everyons is wondering what will happen tC the club when Musial, Litwhiler anc Munger are taken into service They've all passed their physicals you know"
