Berger’s Big Bat Brings Boston Baseball Boom
vX'.’v.SiSFif f V 'M \v fXvXvivlfe;' M
BY WILLIAM BRAUCHER NEA Service Sports Editor
/CLEVELAND, June 28.—Boston has anew Bambino. His name is Walter Berger, and a few years ago you could have seen him on the docks of San Francisco. He was walloping cargoes then, he is punishing pitchers now. And they say he is the best looking National League recruit of the season. Not since Babe Ruth left Beantown to shift for itself has the town seen such prodigious slugging as that supplied by Wally Berger. And not for years have the turnstiles clicked so rapidly. In a recent Sunday double-header with the Giants, 43,000 people paid to enter Judge Fuch’s
ball yard. And with Berger waving his big bat in leadeship, the Braves have come scurrying out of the cellar that was their domicile for years and are playing the kind of ball that makes seven other National League managers very nervous when the Boston boys come to town. ft tt tt BERGER, who tied with Hack Wilson for the league’s homerun honors, won’t be 25 until Oc-
ly have been punished, there would have been no foul in the GodfreyCarnera fight at Philadelphia last Monday.” Schmeling said he was planning to return to meet Sharkey in a return bout in September. He said it with a touch of bitterness in his usually good-natured, modulated voice. “If I had had the misfortune to foul Sharkey, although I never fouled a man in my life, where would I be?” demanded Max. “Would they have called me, as Commissioner Muldoon called Sharkey, ‘the most unhappy man in the world?’ Would they have insisted that Sharkey defend the title against me in the fall?” Schmeling proposed drastic punishment for the fighter committing the foul, loss of his purse, loss of his license for six months, perhaps. But as to requiring a boxer who has been hit low to Continue, Max could not agree to that. “If it is just a little low blow, a blow that does not really hurt, a blow on the leg (such as Phil Scott received), then the fighter should go on. If he is a real man, he will do so,” Schmeling said. “But when a blow r struck below the protector, a man incapacitated. Rules are rules, you can not force a man disabled by such a blow to fight when he can not even stand. “Personally, I can not understand why and how a trained boxer, with such experience as the top-notch fighters have, could possibly strike such a blow as Sharkey landed on me.” Eight city amateur baseball leagues will swing into action Saturday and one Sunday in the following games: S.

tober. He was born in the town where they shoot newspaper reporters. In June, 1927, he migrated to Pocatello, la., and the pitchers started to move out. In ninety-two games he hit 139 times for 248 bases. In 1928 he broke camp and hied farther westward, landing in Los Angeles. That year he hit coast league pitching for .327, poking out twenty homers. Last year he doubled his home-run output and the Cub scouts begna looking him over. Here enters the tragic chapter of Joe McCarthy’s great mistake. Joe looked Berger over and decided he didn’t want him for the Cubs. “I don’t like those ‘stiff-arm’ hitters,” said Joe. “I don’t think he would go over in the big show.”
a a a BOSTON was looking for power and youth. Judge Fuchs, president of the Braves, stood with purse open and told the management of the Angels to help itself. Asa result a deal was arranged whereby Lester Bell, the Braves’ third baseman, went to the Cubs, players Art Delaney and George Harper of the Braves and a nice bundle of cash went to Los Angeles, and Walter Berger came to Boston. Joe McCarthy has been throwing shoes with feet in them at himself ever since. Bell flivvered out this season with a sore arm, and Berger has been batting around .330.

Tribe and Kels Play Last Fray Indians Take On Saints Next; Hoffman Hurt During Friday Defeat. MINNEAPOLIS, June 28. —The fifth and final game with the Mill--1 ers was to be played by the Indians today and Sunday will see the Corj ridenites in St. Paul to open another long set with the second-place Saints who have advanced within six games of the league-leading Colonels. The Tribe got another hard luck jolt Friday during the fourth tilt with the Kels when Clarence Hoffman, mainstay outfielder and hitter, received an injured shoulder in the fourth inning and was compelled to leave the game. New Players Report Outfielders Cicero and Graves, young pastimers obtained from the Red Sox, were due to report to Johnny Corriden today along with Pitcher Frank Mulrooney. Corriden can use the added help, for injuries to Barnhart, Paul Wolfe and Hoffman and the suspension of Warstler have placed him up against it for talent. Going into the last of the ninth Friday leading 6 to 5, the Indians quickly were submerged. Griffin batted for Schup pas first up and was safe on Connolly’s fumble. This brought up Spencer Harris and the Miller first sacker promptly poled the sphere over the fence for a home run, Minenapolis winning 7 to 6. Harris committed four errors and was due to redeem himself and his wallop sent 5,000 fans home singing his praises after telling him during the early innings that as a first baseman he was total blank. Cullop Connects Home runs played havoc with Elmer Ambrose, Tribe flinger, two circuit clouts accoountlng for four runs. Nick Cullop socked one in the seventh with one runner aboard, and ti was Nick’s twenty-second of the year. Freigau hit one in the seventh for Indianapolis with the bases empty. The hits were seven apiece, but the Indians had twelve men left on base against only six left for the home nine. The Tribe failed to take advantage of ten walks issued by the four Millers hurlers. Ferd Schupp, former Indian, got credit for the victory. At one time the Hoosiers had a 5-to-l lead and appeared to be “in,” but they couldn’t control the breaks and errors by Riddle and Connolly developed into Miller runs. The series standing was three and one in the Millers’ favor as the teams prepared to wind up the set this afternoon. Foy Frazier, new outfielder, was the Indians best hitter Friday, with two doubles and a single. Bud Connolly drew three walks and failed to get one safe in the two times he was officially at bat. He hit safely in twenty-sevon consecutive games before his string w£is snapped. nan President Norman Perry of the Indians, who is out on the road with the club, will return home shortly. He exhibited some real speed in obtaining players to relieve the Tribe distress. a a a PERRY will install an amplifier and loud speaker system at Washington park, and there will be a phonograph pickup as part of the equipment to play records. Reproduction will be through four large dynamic speakers. Perry believes in entertaining the customers. a a a Night baseball entertainment wiU be resumed here Monday July 7 and it will be “ladies and children’s night.” The Tribe prexy is determined to smash all attendance records for one game loca s ly and predicts July 7 wiU see anew mark established.

Defending Title-Holder Drops Dark Horse in Women’s Title Match Elizabeth Captures Laurels in Final Match, 5 and 4, for Fifth Local Championship; Large Gallery Takes in Contest at Avalon Course. BY DICK MILLER Miss Elizabeth Dunn of Riverside municipal links extended her reign as queen of local feminine mashie wielders to the fifth consecutive year Friday, defeating Mrs. J. C. Patten of Indianapolis Country Club, 5 and 4, in the final match of the annual tourney over the tricky Avalon Country Club course. The champion finished strong after a slow start. Midway on the first nine, Miss Dunn started hitting her shots straight, and from then on the outcome never was in doubt.
Both appeared nervous at the start of the match, and halved the first two holes in 6s, three-putting on the second green. Mr;i. Patten went one up on the third when Miss Dunn took an 8. The match was squared again when Miss Dunn won the fourth. They halved the fifth when both three-putted, and the defending title holder triumphed on the sixth and seventh when Mrs. Patten was trapped. Miss Dunn went three up on the eighth with a birdie and four up on the ninth when Mrs. Patten picked up out of a ditch. The challenger came back to take the tenth, but Miss Dunn parred the eleventh and twelfth holes to go five up. They halved the thirteenth. Mrs. Patten made a wonderful approach shot on the fourteenth, but her effort was matched by Miss Dunn, who played safely for a half, ending the match, 5 up and 4 to play.
