By Eddie Ash Babe Ruth Announces All-Star Team m m Picking Second Hurler Was Hard Task
ID ABE RUTH and his All-America Board of Baseball, today announces the Babe Ruth all-big league mythical team for 1933, with batting order as arranged by the Bambino. It is Ruth’s twelfth annual major league selection and stacks up as a powerful outfit. There are five changes as compared with his 1932 team, both pitchers, second base, and left and center fields. Dickey, c; Foxx, lb; Traynor, 3b; Cronin, ss, and Klein, rs, are the holdovers and repeaters. Players named who were not included in 1932 are Hubbell and Whitehill, pitchers; Gehringer, 2b; Simmons, If, and Berger, cf. Hundreds of baseball fans of the city and state sent selections to The Times trying to match Ruth s club and only one matched him player for player, Mrs. Helen Edwards, 823 River avenue, Indianapolis. She used a different batting order, but the very fact she matched his selections far in advance of publication entitles her to be crowned a “big league expert.” aaa a a a MOST fans missed out on one of the pitchers. Carl Hubtaell of the Giants was a universal choice with the baseball addicts and also was Ruth's No. 1 hurler. The Babe confesses he had a tough time selecting the pitcher to couple with Hubbell. finally settling on Earl Whitehill of the Washington Senators. Both Whitehill and Hubbell are lefthanders. The fan ballots were scattered, the majority picking Hubbell and Grove. Others chose Crowder with Hubbel. or Cantwell, Warneke, Dean and others. Ruth’s 1933 team, placed in batting order, and Mrs. Edward*' team, follow: nun a a a BABE RUTH HELEN EDWARDS Gehringer, Tigers, 2b Traynor, 3b Cronin, Senators, ss Gehringer, 2b Simmons, White Sox, If Foxx, lb Foxx, Athletics, lb Klein, rs Klein, Phillies, rs Simmons, If Berger, Braves, cf Dickey, c Dickey, Yankees, c ronin, ss Traynor, Piratps, 3b Berger, cf Hubbell, Giants, p Hubbell, p Whitehill, Senators, p hitehill, p ft ft tt u n m c MRS EDWARDS was not alone in matching Ruth's pitchers, Hubbell and Whitehill. but o;her fans muffed one more other position. Mrs. Edwards’ husband. Mack Edwards, “challenged' Ruth in the pick em league." but he was off on two positions, naming Pepper Martin for third base and Lefty Grove as the pitcher to team with Huboell. The Edwards family is baseball-minded. Mack Edwards plays independent ball and Billy, age 9. performs at the game with kid” teams. Mr. and Mrs. Edwards also are supporters of the Indianapolis Indians. They also view manv games on city park diamonds and always keep in close touch with the national pastime. Mrs. Edwards expressed keen delight in being “the one in about 500” to 'beat the Babe to it” on his selections and laughed when informed that not a single man succeeded m equalling her accomplishment. aaa “ * “ BABE RUTH explained his selections in detail, but only parts of his comment will be used, due to space limitations. "First base. Has had exceptional year and his long-distance hitting gives him the call Second base G* hunger is the choice. This has been the best season for one of the game's greatest players. He is a power at , bat “ on the bases. Third base: For all-round value we give Traynor preference Outhit bv Martin and Higgins, but excels either defensively. Higgins' looks like real comer. Shortstop: Cronin over all. No <contest. Left field: Choice rested between Simmons and Manush. Little to choose between the two but Simmons was in thick of fight for batting leadership until recent slump. A1 a great outfielder and also has better arm than Manush. Center field: Berger outstanding m that position this year for combination of outfield skill, batting power and value to team. Right field: No close second. Chuck Klein gels it with plenty to spare. Catcher: Bill Dickey, best all-round performer, but with R. Ferrell, Cochrane and V. Davis crowding him. aaa a a a FOR that “second pitcher,” Ruth wrote as follows: 'The most difficult choice to make in selecting this 1933 team was the second of the two Ditchers The first is a standout. That is Carl Hubbell, shutout king of the season There was not the slightest hesitation in picking the Giants brilliant southpaw. The rub comes in choosing the other pitcher The pitchers who have done particularly well, besides Hubbell, are Whitehill and Crowder of the Senators. Cantwell of the Braves Dean of the Cardinals. Warneke of the Cubs, and Grove of the Athletics. We are considering the kind of pitcher, rather than the number of victories ana Sts The choice for second pitcher finally narrowed down to two, Whitehill and Cantwell. Both pitched an unusual number of low score Eimes with Whitehill pitching the greater number of complete games. is uenerallv believed the American league ball is livelier. At any rate, iitung m this leagued heavier and runs more numerous. That Whitehill was able to pitch and win so many games of one run or nothing, is the answer for his selection over Cantwell. Crowder was a bear for work, but fJS effective than Whitehill. Warneke had hard luck in getting few runs n when he was pitching fine ball. Grove was not the Grove ot other seasons, though still a great pitcher. Dean worked often but was ineffective at times.” _ _ a a a a a a Babe Ruth all-big league team and quoted comment used above, copyright. 1933. by Christy Walsh Syndicate. New York.

Picks Ruth Team
\ . / .’
Mrs. Helen Edwards WHEN The Times invited fans of the city and state to exhibit their baseball knowledge by picking Babe Ruth’s annual allbig league team before he picked it himself, hundreds of diamond followers joined in the fun and many came close. However, it remained for a fannette to top the field and match Ruth player for player. Mrs. Helen Edwards, 323 River avenue, Indianapolis, “outscored” all of the men who sent in teams. Her batting order was not the same, but she was the lone individual to select the same ten players as the Bambino. Last chance for the fans to “match” Babe’s team was Aug. 31 and Ruth announced his selections today.

Turner Hurls Shutout to Clinch Third Place
Indians Down Hens, 2-0, in Brilliant s Mound Battle; Women Free Again Tonight; Field Events Included on Sunday Double-Header Program. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor A first round attack by Red Killefer’s Indians clipped the wings of the Toledo Hens Friday night and clinched third place for the Indians in the A. A. standing by putting that position beyond the reach of St. Paul in i the few games remaining on the season’s card. It was a sizzling contest from beginning to end and no runs were scored after the first round. The Tribesmen won, 2 to 0, and Frank Sigafoos batted in both markers following a walk to Lee and a double by Chapman. Jim Turner and Lefty Bachman were the opposing pitchers and it was a brilliant fray for Turner to win and a heartbreaker for Bachman to lose. The Hen hurler gave up only two hits after the initial stanza and --only one Hoosier was left on base in the game. Toledo solved Turner for nine blows, but he was successful in putting on the brakes in the clutches and nine Hens were left stranded. The game was played off in rapid-fire time, requiring only one hour sixteen minutes.

Chandler Egan, who held the title almost twenty years ago, showed that he can’t be overlooked by shooting a 71. Two other former title-holders, Max Marston and Jess Guilford, used 71 and 76 strokes, respectively. George Dawson of Chicago registered 72 while playing in a foursome with Goodman, who regards the Chicago player as one of the real contenders of the tourney. As for himself, Goodman frankly admitted he was ready to “give the boys a good battle.” He said he would not turn professional if he won the amateur. “Why should I?” he asked. “I can make as much selling insurance as any golf professional earns. It would cost me money to turn pro.” GARDEN SIGNS PERRONI By United Press NEW YORK.

Stars of the harness racing world i who battled for honors in the six- j day Indiana fair meeting which! closed Friday were bound for Kentucky today, to participate in the j famous trots at Lexington, starting Sept. 18 and in the state fair races at Louisville. Four events wound up a week of fine racing at the local fair Friday, with H.

Driven by Sschamahom, the Ohio star won j impressively in each mile, turning | the oval in 2:05 12, l 2, 2:03 1 z and 2:05 1 4. j Lord Jim, the Columbus colt,, annexed the other early closing
Grid Tribe Signs Eight New Stars Eight new faces, most of them back field men and all stars in college football, were added to the roster of the Indianapolis Indians Friday by Manager C. A. Sumner in an effort to have a powerful lineup on the field at Perry stadium next Wednesday when Potsy Clark and his Portsmouth Spartans appear to open the local gridiron season. Coach Joe Dienhart of the local club is jubilant over the acquisition of the men. Cogan, former Clinton high school all-state half back who gained nation-wide attention the last three years at Detroit university, will fill a big hole in the ball-toting division. Piper of Manchester, said by many to have been a better ball toter than Wheaton of De Pauw and equal to any of the players on Indiana’s Big Ten elevens, and Chapman, his triple threat team mate at Manchester, will add considerable power. Chambers, who had ability he was unable to show at Indiana State, is working in great at quarter back, Dienert states, and Jennicks, allstate end at Indiana State, has been showing his oldtime pass catching form. Two new linemen. Miller, formerly a star end at James Millikin, and Goodwin, a tackle at lowa State, arrived Thursday night for tryouts. Dale Miller of Perry stadium, where all games will be played, placed tickets on sale Friday at his office and Spalding's sporting goods store.
The Louisville Colonel will be at the stadium tonight for a single and on Sunday afternoon a doubleheader will end the season with action beginning ?.t 2 o’clock. The battle tonight will start at 8:15 and women will be admitted free to the grandstand. Field Events Sunday Sunday will be celebrated as “Indianapolis day” and a number of field events will be held with players of both teams participating. The fast men of the two clubs will engage in a fifty-yard dash, bunt and run to first, and circling the bases. There also will be fungo hitting contests, distance throwing and throwing for accuracy by the catchers. The stunts will be held previous to the first Sabbath tilt. The Friday triumph won the Indians the S4OO league bonus payoff for third place, each regular to receive that amount. St. Paul, finishing fourth, will collect S2OO for each player and Toledo and Louisville are fighting for fifth place and the SIOO payoff. Due to the fact that fifth place has not been settled, the three remaining Tribe-Colonel games will be fought right out on their merits the same as in mid-season. Many Brilliant Plays A crowd of 3,337, including women admitted free, viewed the Friday night pastiming and the many fans were entertained by marvelous fielding as well as topnotch pitching. Both sides turned in sensational stops, and long running catches in the outfield added to the features. The Indians were retired in order in five innings and in the fifth, after Bedore led off with a single, he was erased in a double play. Backman struck out four and walked one and Turner fanned two and issued one pass. Defensive woric by Reis and Bedore, opposing third sackers. was especially outstanding. Three Hot Stops Are Made In the seventh Reis robbed Sigafoos of a hit with a back-handed stop, Trosky at first leaped high and took a hit away from Wingard and Reis repeated with a brilliant stop: to his left on Cooney. The Louisville Colonels, here tonight, have defeated the Indians ten times this season and the Indians have knocked off their Kentucky rivals nine times. The Killeferites, therefore, have a chance to grab the club rivalry laurels in the final series of the year.
event, a 2-year-old trot, in two heats, beating Calument Essig in each. Doc Parshall was the driver and the time was 2:11 and 2:10. The 2:18 pace for half-mile track horses provided another surprise when Potempkin walked off with the honors in the fast time of 2:02 1 /i, 203 and 2:05 1 4. Chief opposition was offered by Walter Anderson, second in the two final miles, but the wanner triumphed impressively in each. The final event was a 2:25 trot and pace consolation event, in which six pacers and no trotter competed. Calumet Devine, 3-year-old pacer from the Parshall stable, easily annexed the honors in this event.

The screw-ball star came through one of the supreme tests of his career with flying colors Friday when the Giants beat Pittsburgh, 2 to 1, in the final encounter of their crucial five-game series. It happened in the eighth inning. Three Pirates were on base, two were out, and the Giants were leading by one run. Pie Traynor. a .303 batter, was up. Hubbell sent the ball squirming over the plate and Traynor grounded out weakly. Hubbell’s 2lst Win Had the Pirates won this game, it would have given them four out of five contests in the series and chopped the Giants' league lead to four and a half games. However, the Giants extended their lead to six and a half games, while the Pirates defeat enabled the Chicago Cubs to tie them for second place. Hubbell held the Pirates to six hits, while the Giants collected seven off Hal Smith and Hoyt. The Giants made a run in the third when Hughie Critz’s single drove home Joe Moore, and the winning run came in the seventh when Davis scored on Ryan’s long fly to Lindstrom. Pittsburgh deprived Hubbell of a shutout in the eighth when a run came in on two singles and a force. It was Hubbell’s twenty-first victory. Cubs’ Fifth in Row The Cubs advanced with their fifth straight victory, beating Boston, 8 to 3, for the Braves’ seventh straight defeat. Babe Herman led the Chicago twelve-hit attack with four hits in four tries, while Baxter Jordan’s perfect day at bat accounted for four of the eight Boston hits off Guy Bush. Erooklyn made six hits and six errors in losing to Cincinnati, 12 to 0, and St. Louis scored its fourth straight win over the Phillies, 6 to 5, despite Chuck Klein’s twentyseventh homer that gave him first place in, the National home run race. Nats Maintain Edge Washington maintained its averican League lead of eight and a. half games by beating Chicago, 11 to 2, with Manager Joe Cronin’s four hits leading the attack. The second-place New York Yankees made ijt three straight over fit. Louis, 5 to 3, when Russell Van Atta held the Browns to four hits. Jimmy Foxx contributed his forty-second homer as Philadelphia trounced Cleveland, 9 to 2, aided by “Sugar” Cain’s six-hit pitching. Detroit took two games from Boston by the identical score, 4 to 3. The Tigers scored their four runs in the fifth of the opener, and in the nightcap made their winning run in the ninth on Fox’s single and Gehringer’s double.
