I Today’s Sport Parade (By Henry McLemore) ♦ ♦ Cleveland. June 9 - (U.R) Lest you believe that I, a sportswriter, fell out of place in the Republican convention crowd, let me hasten to say that I already have been bopped on the head by a cake of ice thrown from a hotel window, and offered. Che tenor lend in innumerable "let me call you sweetheart — down by the old mill stream" quartets. This town, with the Republican elephants trumpeting all over the place. Is a dead ringer for Louisville during derby week, St. Louis on tlie eve of a world series, or Poughkeepsie the night before a regatta. Headaches and hangovers are just as plentiful, and haircuts and sleep Just as scarce. It's only a step from the water wagon to the band wagon, and the delegates have made it as effortlessly as Tom Mix transferring from his Pinto pony to a runaway express to save the heroine from a fate worse than death. The aspirin ami tomato gulce concession is. as usual, the most valuable in town. If it's true that a jungle elephant never forgets a kindness, it's equally true that a political one never forgets to take a drink. The chief difference between a political crowd and a sports gathering. as 1 see it. is that the vote and platform boys call those hotel room blow-offs caucuses. That word “caucus'' scared me off the first two or three I was invited to. but I finally was dragged into one. 1 also was dragged out. For the sake of consistency, you know. Veteran convention followers are caucus coniseurs. and are very particular about the ones they attend. Tlie look down on the inexperienced caucus-hoppers wtio accept any and all invitations. The sports filbers who poke their heads out of their hotel windows and yell all night, have their counterparts here. Until last night I never believed that the gent who split the night air with his cries

But behind Joe s serious visage is a procession of knockouts. For instance, in the center is Primo Camera, just after Louis had hit him, and before Da Preem hit the canvas. At the left Max Baer does a little thinking while the referee counts. Louis had put him on the floor, too. And at the right Paulino Uzcudun, the Basque woodchopper, looked like this when Louis’ left connected. But maybe Max isn’t thinking of his predecessors. Experts predict Maxis will give Joe a run for his money.

But he was not only matched hut beaten last night liy i a political pistachio from Kansas who was all broken out with "Lan- ’ doliitis."

iness competing with the moonlight. he let fly at it with a mineral water bottle. "Missed, durn it!" he yelled when the hottie crashed on the sidewalk. Undismayed, he continued tiring until his ammunition ran out and the house detectives banged into his room. Refused more bottles, he again drajied himself out the window, honeysuckle vine fashion, and resumed his broadcasting. “Good ol' Alf! My boy Alf! He can’t miss! Woooowww lee!” He’ll probably wind up as postmaster general. (Copyright 1936 by UP.) Dance Wednesday Sunset

ANOTHER DEAN IN SPOTLIGHT Duke University Graduate Star Pinch-Hitter With Athletics New York. June 9. (U.R>~A new star called Lovill (Chubby) Dean joined the glittering Dizzy and Dazzy constellation today. Chubby is pinch hitter extraordinary of the Philadelphia Athletics. Fresh from the campus of Duke University, lie joined Connie Mack's club during training at Fort Myers this spring. He made a great showing down there, but the master minding Muck hasn't been utile to decide whether he wants to] make an inflelder or an outfielder out of him. So far he has warmed the bench except for an inning or so at first base and pinch-hitting■ roles. Dean has either won or saved | five games directly, getting nine hits four doubles and five singles to drive in 11 runs in 22 times at. > bat. He was a pitcher down at| Duke, but he is hitting the ball at. a 409 clip for the Athletics.

The blow brought both of them home to deadlock the count 4 all and en abled the Athletics to go on and score'the winning run in the 10th. It marked the fourth consecutive time that Dean came through in! the pinch when the chips were down. The New’ York Yankees smashed out a 12 to 3 decision over the St. Louis Browns to increase their] American league lead to three | games. The second-place Boston Red Sox divided a twin-bill with the j Detroit Tigers, winning the first 6 to 3, with the world champions tak ' ing the finale, 12 to 7. Lefty 1 Grove scored his ninth victory in i the opener as Jimmy Foxx hit his 14th homer of the year. Cleveland at Washington was rained out. In the National league the leading St. Louis Cardinals- who were idle—gained a half game as a result of the Giants defeat by the j Cincinnati Reds. 7 to 3. Larry French turned in an eighthitter to give the Chicago Cubs a 3 to 0 shutout over the Philadelphia Phillies. An error by Linus Frey in the ninth with the bases loaded opened the way for the winning run that gave the Pittsburgh Pirates a 2 to 1 decision over the Brooklyn Dodgers. Boston at St. Ixiuis was postponed until a later date.
