RED SOX SHOW BEST HURLING INAMERICAN Million Dollar Team Has Steadiest Hurling In Junior League New York, Apr. 20.— <U.R) —Before the 1936 buHobal season started, manager Joe Cronin of the expensive Boston Red Sox said: "If Lefty Grove and Wes Ferrell can get a little assistance from the rest of the pitching department. the Red Sox positively will be one of the four And with the season only six days old, It begins to look as if Cronin hit the nail on the head. So far. Red Sox pitchers have been the steadiest in the league. In five games, not once has a Boston hurler been driven from the mound. Ferrell and Grove have lived up to expectations. Ferrell has won two starts and Grove set the Yankees down with two hits in his only start. Johnny Welsh, who won 10 last year, accounted for the other triumph. The only Boston defeat was that suffered by Fred Osterraueller, who dropped a heart-breaking 3-2 pitchers’ battle Saturday to Lefty Gomez of the Yankees. In defeat, Ostermueller showed that he has enough on the ball to give Grove and Ferrell more support than he did last year. Freddy won seven and lost eight a year ago when he was out for 10 weeks because of injuries. When Johnny Marcum, former Athletic star, returns to duty after

in tonsillectomy, the Sox will have at least three capable pitchers to back up their slur pair.

KLEIN HITTING IN OLD FORM Chuck Klein II o me rs Twice Sunday; Leads All (’uh Regulars Chicago, Apr. 20- (U.K) —When Chuck Klein leaped off the Chicago Cubs bench during the world series last fall and stepped hack into the role of n slugging hero, something clicked inside him and brought back the “roaring tiger” the Cubs bought in the famous deal with Philadelphia four years ago. Although the 1936 season is less than a week old. manager Charley Grimm is convinced Klein has returned to the sensational form that tagged him with a fancy price in 1933. In spring training Chuck pounded the hall at a familiar dip.’ Now he leads Chicago regulars with an average of .409, three home runs, land nine rums bath d in. He has hit safely tn every game. "Klein certainly looks like his old self," Grimm said yesterday after the Cub rightflelder drove out two home runs against Cincinnati. “He seems headed for a great year at last and that gives us a big boost in the pennant race. Gabby Hartnett can't be tn every game and we need at least one heavy nitter in action all the time. Chuck is it." It was a bitter story—Klein's inexplicable slump from the National league batting championship to a point where he couldn't make the team as a regular. He was injured, sick and "sore in the joints" several times hut nothing could explain away his failure to h hseati GGp etaoin crnfwyp dwk hit as he had in those prosperous fence-busting days at Philadelphia. With the release of Freddy Lindstrom after the 1935 series. Grimm faced a shortage of outfielders and an immediate need of a veteran regular. He gambled on Klein. "At the start of the season I promised Chuck a square deal in right field," he said. "1 told him he'd have a fair chance against all kinds of pitching before I made a decision about him. That's all he wanted.” The smooth manner in which Klein has met National league pitching in the first week indicates he's on his way to a big year. Unless his batting fails to improve along with the improvement in pitching as the season rolls along he may yet be worth the $30,000 salary the Cubs once paid him. He's working now- for $12,500. o Prominent Man, Wife Die In Plane Crash Dunlo, Pa., Apr. 20 — (|J.R) —A fleeting glimpse of a smoking red ! and blue biplane by a mountain ' Bcl:..ol girl offered the only dis- ■ coverable clue today to the cause of the airplane crash yesterday ; that killed Frederick H Harvey, vice president of a national rest- i aurant chain and of the Sante Fe railroad, and his wife. The plane, Harvey’s own tn which he was taking his young wife home to Kansas City from New York after her return V>’ed-_ nesday from a visit to London, caught fire and was destroyed after breaking through several tree tops and five 20,000 volt wires. Bodies of both victims were burned beyond recognition. Identification was established by papers in baggage and in a wallet protected from fire by Harvey’s body, land by the metal collar plate of a small dog. also burned.

They were asleep when the pipe was put through last night. When they awoke this morning. Mrs. Magill was told that almost the first news to come up it was that her husband was dead, tnat only Mrs. Robertson could hope any longer. The threat of death by drowning also menaced the imprisoned men in their subterranean cage, but they had the questionable solace of knowing that they would be rescued or dead of exposure and starvation before the water could close in on them. It was rising from the mine below them and seeped through the ceiling of their tunnel. The menace of the water was first known last night. Phillip Henderson, a mine manager, had been stretched on his stomah, his ear to the mouth of the pipe. Suddenly he threw off his covering of canvas. His face was white and his facial muscles jerked in the yellowish lantern light. “My God," he exclaimed brokenly. “Water.” He pulled the canvas over his head again, but through it onlookers heard his shout: “Is the water rising?” The answer was reassuring. It would be many hours before the I water could become a menace, and Iby then the outcome would be positive, either for life or death. After Dr. Robertson had reject- ■ ed the first food lowered as improper for men who had had no food tor eight days, a rubber tube was lowered. It waa affixed to a runnel at the top of the pipe and through the funnel was poured a
