PITTSBURGH EASY FOR SOUTHPAWS; DROP TO THIRD PLACE

Bucs Lose 16 Out of 18 Starts Hubbell of Giants Eleventh Lefty to Turn Back Club. By I nited Prut* NEW YORK, Aug. 20.—Lefthanded pitchers are threatening to ruin the 1932 National League pennant hopes of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates, who only a month ago appeared safely out in front with a five-game lead, have slipped to third place, largely because they haven’t been able to fathom southpaw pitching. They dropped their sixteenth game in their last eighteen starts

Friday when the Giants pounded out a 10-to-4 victory and it marked the eleventh time in the losing streak that they had been turned back by left-handers. The Pirates hit hard enough Friday, but Carl Hubbell merely went through the motions in registering his fourteenth victory of the season. The iGants gave him a sixrun lead in the first inning. Henie

Mungo

Meine and Leon Chagnon were the victims of the New York attack. The defeat dropped the Pirates to third place as Brooklyn whipped Cincinnati, 6 to 0, to move into the runner-up position. Va*n Lingle Mungo continued his brilliant hurling in turning back the Reds with six hits. In his last thirty-seven innings, Mungo has yielded only three runs. Brooklyn advanced within two games of the leading Chicago Cubs, who dropped a 6 to 5 decision to the Braves. The Braves pounded Malone, Hermann and Grimes for fourteen hits to score their only victory in the four-game series. Jackie Flower’s single scoring Wilson gave the Cardinals a 5 to 4 eleven-inning victory over the Phillies. 3 BIG LEAGUERS RETIRE Jamieson’s Career May Be Ended; Burke, Worthington Out.

Walter Hagen, Tommy Armour, Jose Jurado and Horton Smith are other stars entered.

Parker and Fred Perry before tackling Vines, won the first two sets Friday, the Californian winning the third.

Allison qualified bv overcoming Gregory Mangin. national indoor champion, after a bitter four-set battle, 7-5, 6-4, 8.10, 10-8.

Talbott was seeking the laurels for the fourth time and Bassett the third ime. The Bloomington youth reached the finals last year, only to lose to Billy Heinein. ' To reach today’s trophy tussle, Tallbott was called upon to eliminate Harry Brewer, clever little West Lafayette youth, in the semifinals Friday. Talbott won, 3 to 2, but it was a battle all the way. Bassett had easy sailing, walking over Ray Jones of Richmond, who put th£ skids under Heinlein Thursday. Bassett won, 11 to 10. Bassett was state junior champion in 1929. In his first quest of the state senior champion, he reached the semi-finals, where he bowed to George Lance, the champion. Last year he bowed out in the quarter-finals to Fritz Cox. The Ft. Wayne estar had a 70, two under par, on the first eighteen of Friday’s semi-finals against Jqnes to lead 9 up. Talbott began state tournament play four years ago, reaching the quarter-finals in his first tourney. He failed to qualify in 1930, came back in 1931 to lost to Heinlen in the finals. In Friday’s battle with Brewer, Talbott was forced to come from behind on the final holes ot regain a lead which he had lost early in the afternoon. The fromer I. U. player has been off his game most of the week, but hoped to regain his form today. Talbott and Bassett met once during their collegiate days, Talbott scornlg a 3 to 0 wni with a 72 over the Bloomington course.

Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

VTEW YORK, Aug. 19.—You are supposed to get the news in the first paragraph. So the news of this is that George Moriarty the umpire is not going to leave the American League. Moriarty is the umpire who was ganged by five White Sox players earlier in the season and beaten into a state of semi-consciousness. For some weeks thereafter he did not officiate and mysterious rumors developed touching upon his future in the game, the most persistent of these being that 1933 would see him in the National League. I had a talk with Moriarty and if anybody is interested in where an umpire operates from one year to another, I am in a position to announce with no little degree of authority that the gentleman is going to remain in the American League. "They may throw me out of the league," says Moriarty, "but they aren’t going to knock me out.” I ea K er to get Moriarty’s version of the Cleveland battle in which tie White Sox players, led by their manager. Lou Fonseca, initiated a mass attack under the grand stand following a close ball game, but the gentleman was in no mood for reminiscences. “All I can tell you,” he said, “was that a good time was had by all.” * M * Moriarty belongs to that old school of fighting Irishmen tb whom the swish of truculent knuckles is a grand symphony and a poetic delight. Even at the age of 47 he still was gallant enough to accept a challenge from a whole ball club—a ball club made up of men from fifteen to twenty years his junior, and all of them in perfect physical shape. understanding is that somebody yellow - vou must do more than r * you call a Moriarty that. tbe battle was ended there was no doubt as to who was yellow. It took five men to put the veteran umpire down—five men anc a kjck in the head.

Moriarty had gained a reputation for stealing home. Not a fast base-runner, nevertheless, he was an uncanny judge of pitchers’ movements, and he also had perfect timing. It was his study of pitchers and his timing that enabled him to steal successfully where faster men failed. In two years he stole home fourteen times out of seventeen attempts. This still stands as a record for stealing home. But to get to the Carrigan Ricident A ! re *t Red Sox team that included Ruth Speaker. Lewis, Hooper.

But the pitcher had anticipated this dash so he cut his wind up short and whipped the ball to Carrigan at the plate, who tagged Moriartv out as he slid through a cloud of dust. “Don't ever trv to pull that on a smart guy' cracked Carrigan—end to be sure that Moriartv got the fiill import of the sermon. Carrigan. a whimsical sort of person. spat in his face. Even i.i those davs. spit to Moriartv was a horrid word He tore the mask from Carrigan’s fac* and knocked him to the ground with a beautiful right hand punch. A verv lovely riot followed and Carrigan narrowiv escaped with his life. Thev flnallv got him out of the park disguised as a laborer wearing rubber boots, tattered clothes and an old slouch hat—a hat that has since been identified as the personal property of Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis. This is a picture of Moriarty back in the days when Belligerency on the ball field came under the head of color. I think it still comes under the head of color—but mv favorite color does not tvappen to be yellw. $

Indian Notes

When Ray Fitzgerald was supplanted in the Indianapolis outfield by Fuzzy Hufft, the Coast leagueer who so far has failed to solve A. A. pitching to any extent, Fitz went job hunting. Ray has a reputation as a fly hawk and his unemployment was short-lived. Manager Bush of the league-leading Millers decided he could use an extra man and now

Fitzgerald is a member of the pace setters in Tom Hickey’s circuit. Spencer Harris, one of the Miller fly chasers, has a bad leg and this situation supplied an opening for the former Indian center fielder. Bush picked up Fitzgerald at no cost owing to the fact the player was released out-

Kaw Rally Raps Tribe Goldman’s Wild Throw in Seventh Brings Sixth Straight Loss. By Times Special KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 20. Despite the fact they were being outbatted, the Indians were well on the way to victory over he Blues here Friday night and were riding out in front, 6 to 3, only to “blow” in the seventh and Kansas City grabbed the series opener, 7 to 6. Fi ratio play by Goldman at Shortstop was the main factor in the defeat of the Tribesmen. Goldman w’as slow in fielding rollers to his position and his wild throw permitted tow runs to score in the seventh and also placed the winning run on base. The Blues put over their four-run winning splurge in the seventh after two down. It was the sixth straight setback for the Hoosiers and put them eight games back of the league-leading Minneapolis Millers. Cooney, Campbell and Heving toiled on the Tribe rubber,'and the Kaws also used three flingers, Smith, Tising and Fowler. Hits were nine for the losers and sixteen for the home nine. The teams will meet under the lights again tonight and then close the series with a double-header Sunday afternoon. The Indians will invade Milwaukee Monday. The Indians scored two markers in the initial inning Friday night, two in the second, one in the third and one in the sixth, and the Blues chalked up three runs in the first and four in the seventh. The Kaws in fourth place, are only two games back of the third-place Tribesmen. The margin between the Columbus Birds in second place and the Indians is one and a half games.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.—'This year's “battle of the century” will be staged between two horses who came back. And it will be a grudge fight. When Twenty Grand and Equipoise race for the Saratoga Cup on Sept. 3, it will be more than a mere struggle for a prize. Twenty Grand beat Equipoise twice in 1930 when they were 2-year-olds. Equipoise with a record of having been beaten only once this year, has that old score to settle. Equipoise won one race from Twenty Grand when they were 2-year-olds. That was in the mud—the
