Beck Steals 8 Bases
lin 7-5Leaque Game

When Shortstop Stu Beck Of
Boiling Field does things. he does
them in a big way. Take yesterday,
for example, when the Flyers
scraped out a Us win over Fort
Myer in the Military League. Stu
decided to steal base and one led
to another. First thing he knew he
had eight thefts. Sort of rubbing it
in were three thefts of home.
Although Beck's thievery featured
the fray, Pitcher Max Pressman
made his presence felt by tanning
10 opponents and knocking home
run in the fifth that scored two runs
and squared matters at that stage
at sail. Runs in the seventh and
eighth decided the issue.

If st. Louis Browns fail to re-
tain the pennant they copped last
year-and their outlook isn't any
too bright-they might be able to
trace the start of their failure to
a feud begun last season with the
Mats Cuban contingent.
1t was the pleasure of the Browns
last year to abuse the Latin Amer
ica players, at every turn, but be-
fore crowd of 23,02l at the holi-
day twilight-night double-header in
Griffith Stadium it was the Cubans
who abused the champs.
They laid it on thick in the early
encounter to beat the Browns, 3
to 2, In 13 innings, which so upset
the st. Louis club that it was soft
victim in the 5-to-O nightcap.
Avenges Insults of 1914.
To the Cubans, revenge is sweet.
Getting back at the Browns for the
insults suffered last year were Gil
Torres, Santiago Ullrich and Mike
Guerra. Torres helped himself to
three singles with the third blazing
the way to a two-run tying rally in
the eighth of the opener. Ullrich
took over the pitching in the 10th
to stop the Browns cold. Guerra
cracked single to center after two

Joe Kuhel with the winning score.
