Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK. June 2—Ed Lewis, who Is called Strangler because of his ferocious attitude toward sirloin steaks, insists that he is leveling in his coming match with Richard Shlkat, the dead-panned German, who lost caste around here when it was discovered that his acting wasn’t on a par with his wrestling. He is listed a Pennsylvania German and the mat hounds refer to him as •‘Seacat." Since Shlkat e*n't act the sssumptlon I* that he can wrestle And since Lewi* ta willing to swear on a stack of bank-book* that he will level. It muat be aaaumed that Ik will wrestle. And.

At anv rate. I (ear the bovs mat level. And. after all. whv not? Everythin* else has turned sour on usa a a THE Giants, those perennial March champions, are so far behind the rest of the race that it isn’t funny any more, either. Every spring, the Giants come home all set for a world series on a 5-cent basis and then spend six months proving that they would have won if they had played as they were supposed to have played on their spring form. It’s all very depressing, boys and girls. Wrestling threatens to become honest, the Giants are lugubrious, rather than funny and the Dodgers have turned scientific. What's a guy gotta do for a laugh these days—see the speculators and get a ticket for the Seabury-Walker bout? Evening Tops Field in Oaks By t wiled rrmt CHICAGO. June 2.—Evening, owned by George D.

Wes Loses Fast Ball —He’s Just Another Pitcher
BY CLAIRE BURCKY NEA Servlee Sports Writer CHICAGO. June 2—“ He was a great guy while he had it." they are saying of Wesley Cheek Ferrell. Carolina’s handsome gift to the major leagues. But “it" is gone, and Ferrell is confronted with th* realization that, until he gets it back, he's Just another right-handed pitcher. “It’’ is a fast ball. Using it as his ace in the hole those first two years with the Cleveland Indians. Ferrell won forty-six games, a record total for a two-year man. Then he adopted a slow curve last year, either because of a sore arm, or because he wrongly sensed his superiority over opposing batsmen without having to bear down. At any rate. American League batters learned to love his slow curve. Realizing his present helplessness. Ferrell recently has sought to “blow” his fast one by them. It has gone by—but nowhere near its intended target. Quoting Manager Roger Peclcinpaugh: "Ferrell was at his best a couple of years ago when, in a jam.

he would blow that hard one past the best hitters in th* league. But all of last season and thus far in this one he has been pitching slow curves and very little else.” FERRELL was successful last year against every team but Mack’s Athletics. His slow stuff failed to bother the A's and they beat him five straight times. Still, the others must have been constantly on the watch for his fast ball, for he trounced the White Sox and Browns five times apiece without a loss, took four out of five from the Yankees, four out of six from Washington and split even with Detroit in six games and Boston in two contests. But to get back to Manager Peck: “Wes isn’t using his fast ball and the hitters have learned this. They're waiting for his slow curve and pounding it hard. In the last few games he has tried to go back to the fast ball that used to be his best bet. Unfortunately for us all, he has lo6t control of it. Now he's got to go to work and perfect it again before he can become the winner that he's supposed to be.”
