Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, April 28—The season isn't very old yet, but the Brooklyn ball club is in last place, and there, is no telling how long It wil be there. A few months ago the club fired the most picturesque manager In baseball and followed that by trading its most colorful ball player, an amusing gent by the name of Babe Herman. So it is no surprise to get a letter such as this: Dear Mister Williams—l am standing in front of the mahogany at the Plumbers and Mechanics Bridge and Whist Club which, a* you know, la only a hop. skip and a scotch from Ebbets field and I am talking to Big Mack. Big Mack Is the party who says “have one on the house.” except that he says It only on days when fiteeve McKeever savs “Hello. Pal,” to Wilbert Robinson, which means that the house does not buy very often, if at all. How do you like the Dodgers this year? 1 says to Big Mack, diving into the pretzel bowl at one and the same time. “I think that Mickey Walker will stiffen King Levlnsky Friday night,” he atrowls. very puzzling-llke. I guess you do not hear me.” I repeat, urging the froth off a bowl of dark brown fluid which he has placed in front of me. I asks you how do you like them Dodgers this vear? T think that Top Flight will make them other goats look as silly as a cop chasing a gangster,” he says, cutting some cheese for customer who will be In after the ball game—or maybe after the third innise_ "The Dodgers.” Big Mack paused impressively. “Is dead. A year ago they was the biggest card in baseball, and why not? They had everything that Ringling Brothers and the Daughters of the American Revolution had and In addition, they had Babe Herman. He handed me more laughs than the Marx Brothers, Ed Wvnn. Jimmy Durante and Clarence True Wilson ever did and that is saving a lot. On top of that, he could play some baseball. “Now them Dodgers this vear is as ftinny as an Income tax return They is Just another ball club and all them guys Is vesslna Mother Carry to death. I would rather go out to the parade grounds at rrospert nark and watch the Flatbush Terriers play the Williamsburg Tigers than look at mugs like Cuctnello and Stripp. Even If thev was good I wouldn’t like ’em. I don't even want to go out and see Hoyt get hoyted or Hack get whacked. Besides, they tell me this Hoyt has got all the fellers on a diet. Can you imagine trying to win a baseball pennant on a diet? I always heard that you need pitchers and hitters to win a baseball pennant. There is only one kind of diet anyway, and that Is a good cold glass of lager when a man fs tired. Or even when he feels that he might get tired liter on." Now. Mister Williams, this upsets me no end on account X have been a Dodger lan Since the days of Washington park, which is going back a long wavs. Big Mack is all steamed up and he keeps on talking. “You can not sell me them Dodgers this year." he savs, ”beraiise X want comedy with my ball games and Mother Carey has, them guvs so seri-ous-minded I hear they Is even reading hooks. I am alwavs suspicious of parties what read books as look at Gene Tunney I and B. O. Shaw.” I try to tell Big MRck that this is unjust because a guy can still read a book and make a base hit. but, he will have hone of It. “I never read a book in my life except the Barkeeper’s Manual with Illustrations, pnd a very fine book it is. but X can read the standing of the clubs in the newspaners." And so saving. Big Mack hands me my favorite afternoon newspaper and points to the standing of the clubs, and what do I read: “Brooklyn, won 3, lost 7; percentage. .300,” There was only one thing to say and Big Mack said it: well bovs, what's it going to be? Signed: Ben (East, New York) Louis.

Feels Better By l nited press NEW YORK. April 28Babe Ruth is doubly pleased now that the Detroit Tigers have dropped into second place in the American League, permitting the weather man to boost the New York Yankees into first position. Every time the Tigers lose a game, the big fellow heaves a mighty sigh of relief. He’s not afraid they’ll beat the Yankees, but they’ve been threatening his reputation as a prognosticator. In his pre-season selections, he picked the Tigers to finish sixth in the league. He hopes they’ll fall into line as soon as possible so that no one will point the finger of scorn at his predictions.

Malone was on the mound for the victors. He allowed only five hits. Swetonic, Harris and Brame yielded eleven. Cincinnati’s Reds defeated the champion St. Louis Cardinals, 8 to 4. halting Cincinnati’s losing streak of five straight games.

BY EDDIE ASH Times Snorts Editor MILWAUKEE, Wis., April 28. —Emmet McCann’s pace-setting Indians were to receive their first taste of competition in enemy territory today when they helped Frank O'Rourke’s Brewers lift the lid on the Milwaukee home season. Cream City fans worked themselves up to the usual high inaugural day pitch and Brewer club officials caught the fever and predicted attendance would hit around 12,000 if any kind of mild weather prevailed. It was rather cool this morning, but there seemed to be much confidence in all quarters that there would be some warmth in the sun during the afternoon by the time the umpires ordered the athletes to swing into action at 3 o’clock. Chief McCann of the league-leading Tribesmen nominated John Berly to face the Brewers on the mound with Tom Angley on the receiving end of the Hoosiqr battery. Jack Knott, righthander, was Manager O’Rourke’s morning choice for slab duty and Crouch was delegated to work behind the mask for the home nine. Knott has pitched two victories for the Brewers during the early season out on the road and stacks up as the fair-haired boy to give Milwaukee the best chance to upset the invading Tribesmen.

With one out and two on bases, Hadley replaced Sad Sam Jones in the nipth and retired the side scoreless. Vic Sorrel went the route for the Tigers, allowing seven hits. Jones and Hadley also were found for seven. Wesley Ferrell, ace of the Cleveland Indian pitching staff, hurled himself to his fourth victory of the season and his team’s third straight triumph over the St. Louis Browns. The score was 7 to 1.
