^mw^mmm^ '(> >iwiiiiiip!i '"^ ^l^^^^pSI^^P W^fn SlaiDRlin' S?>m Proved His Gam^ness â€" Johnny Palmer, Radin, N.C., lines up a putt on the second green oi the Hermitage Country Club, Richmond, V'a., as Slammin' Sammy Snead watches di litage Country Club, Richmond, V'a., as Slammin' Sai luring their match that decided tlie PGA title. py A SixBirCmTic A lot of <nuer things happen in •port, but we personally fail to recall any duplicate of an imiilent which tiiok place in Cleveland just the other day. * * * It was only six months ago that •11 the sport* writers and radio coninientalors were three-cheering thf Indians' trio of Lou Boudreau, Ken Keltner and Joe Gordon as the "greatest infield in baseball". (Tech- nically a first baseman it not con- •idered an infielder, although wt never do expect to know why.) * * • Some of the boys went even farther overboard than this and »aid that tile C'levelanders were not only the greatest intield presently oper- ling, Init the greatest of all time â€" a statement which we could only •wallow with quite a large handful of salt. * • • But it isn't what you used to be but what you are today â€" in base- ball as in a lot of other things; and there, on June the Fifth, Cleve- land fans must have got a terrific jolt when they saw Boudreau, Keltner and Gordon sitting out the •econd game of a 'louble-header â€" not, mind you, because the World Champions were so far ahead that they could take a well-earned re«t, but simply becau&e their fielding and hitting had fallen off ao badly that Maiiajjer Boudreau, in deipera- tion, benched himself and the other two in an effort to win a ball game â€" an efTort which, by the way, wasn't successful. * * • Just what the moral of this hap- pens to be we do not pretend to know â€" unless it might be that If a guy listens to enough of those bancjuel speeches and readi enough write-ups about himself in the pa- part, he's liable to start believing that it's all true â€" and forgetting that the base hits you smacked out jresterday aren't going to do much toward scoring today's runs. * • * Roger Hornsby â€" "the Rajah" â€" was probably the ftnest right-handed Utter the game of baseball ever had. He had a lifetime mark of .358; on three »cparate <)ccasions he hit batter than .400; and over one ftve- yaar span he averaged 402. (His marks over thoae five years were .397, .401, .384, .424 and .403, just im case you want to have â-  record M a hitting splurge that will pro- •biy never be equalled.) * * • So when lir. Hornaby has aome- tMng to say regarding the game â€" •Bd especially about the hitting and pitching ends of same, you may take it that no raw hand Is talking, b»t a gentleman w<ho knows whtit- at he speaks. * * * And what ha« Mr. H. got to say? J»it this â€" that nowadays the hit- ters have far too big an edge over the heavers â€" and that the latter should be allowed to re\ ive some of the fancy deliveries, now out- lawed, that they used to turn on back in his time as an active player. * * • "I think that the game would be helped if they'd legalize all the pitching deliveries that were knocked out around 1920," says The Rajah. "Deliveries such as the spitter, the shiner and any doctoring of the ball. That would help to even up mat- ters between pitchers and hitters. With the live ball they have now- adays all the advantage is with the hitters; so I say, let pitchers rough up the cover, make the ball sail and you'll take away the inequality of competition." * * * Of course the high brass of base- ball denies â€" with the utmost vehe- mence â€" that the baseball today is any livelier than it used to be. But this, to anybody who knows even a little about the sport, is nothing but a laugh. Babe Ruth and his big bat brought thousands of fans to the ball yards who came for the purpose of seeing balls hit out of the park. * • * The managements were quick to respond, and they made home runs so cheap â€" both by shortening the fields and by putting "rabbit" into the balls â€" that now four-base whacks are a dime a dozen, and we have guys knocking them out of the lot who, ordinarity, would have had a hard job clubbing a Texas leaguer. * • * We imagine that some day, sooner if not later, a reaction against these cheap homers will set in, and that the magnates will be forced to adopt something along the lines of Hornsby 's suggestion. A pitcher with a cheekful of eating tobacco, anointing the horsehide vigorously before throwing it past the aston- ished batter, may not have been the prettiest sight in the world. * • » Still, to some of us, it was a whole lot more like baseball than â€" as happens nowadays â€" a pitcher, when he gets in a hole, heaving hit faat one square down the middle, and ducking for fear of getting his head torn ofT at the ball goes sall- inug toward the outer regions. Fair Question A city editor was instructir^ a new reporter on the art of writing for ttie newspapeirs. 'There are two words which "you must never use in your reports," he •aid. 'One is nice and the otticr, k)u»y." There wa« a pause, then tihe reporter replied, "Well â€" what are the two words?"

WHATGOES ON ^/ IN THE VOBLD 4' Norman Blair GREAT BRITAIN Winston Churchill didn't even turn up to vote against the -Steel Bill, and his non-rttendance at the House of Cuiniiions has becoine a leading topic of conversation in London. Some of his friends say that Churchill is feeling tired and in- tends to take it easy so as to be ready for the general election fight when it conies. Others say that the old gentleman is just bored to death with the jiettiness of modern poli- tics, while still others claim that he is spending his time concentrating on the unity of Western Europe. So it seems to be a case of "you pays your money and takes your choice". The one thing certain is that .'Vnthony Eden is now the almost undispute<l leader of the Opposition; in fact, the only one challenging his position is Lord Beavirlirook, who keeps on saying that the ministers who served under the Baldwin and Chamberlain ad- ministrations should not be in- cluded in the next Conservative Government. This seems rather odd accusation to level at Eden, who resigned from the Foreign Offi.ce as a protest agamst Chamberlain's policy of appeasement. Hdwever, Beaver- brook â€" it's hard to realize that he's readied the age of seventy- â€" was never noted for his consistency; to him it vvas something you looked up in the dictionary under the letter C, as one observer put it. The principal problem facing the British people is how to bring down the cost of production; and the so- cialists say if the workers' wages are to he reduced, then all salaries and incomes must be reduced in proportion â€" something that's easier to talk about than to bring to pass. There is, of course, the alternative of longer working hours; but neither the siiirit or flesh of the British seem to be in the mood for anything like that as yet. ' In the meantime Sir Stafford Crips is back from Italy â€" and in real fighting trim. And if there is anybody who doubts the ultimate survival both of Britain and of the Labor Government, it certainly isn't Crippg. GERMANY Among the failures of interna- tional communism in Western Eu- rope since the end of the war, none is more pronounced or significant than the failure of the German com- munists to achieve substantial auc- ecss evAi within the range of Rut- tian rifles. Any examination of what hat happened to communism in Ger- many and specifically in the Soviet lone of occupation thould be accom- panied by the thought that Germany, not jusit a quarter or half or three- quarters, but all Germany, it the Soviet objective. This is the aim laid down by Marx and Lenin, one of the cardinal goals nol only of post-war Communist foreign policy, but pre-war as well. Of all the promises which the Socialist Unity Party made and failed to keep, the most important was one circulated just about a year ago to the effect that the CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING AUbNTS WANTKU OILS.
