By Eddie Ash Grove Belongs in ‘Wonder Class’ 9 m a Tall Pitcher Possesses Amazing; Record

r J"'HF3 all-star biff league team pickers had a tough time this year leaving Lefty Grove off their selections, and if the experts were pinned right down they would confess that after all the lanky southpaw of the Athletics belongs alongside Carl Hubbell as “tops." He won twenty-three games and lost eight and always was ready to go out there and pitch, although at times his club was far below the form of other years. His record truly is remarkable. Over a stretch of eight Seasons Grove has won 194 games and lost seventy-nine, averaging less than eight setbacks per season against an average of better than twenty-four victoriesLefty set himself up as a real twirler in 1928 when he won twenty-four tilts and lost eight. Tn 1929 it was twenty and six; 1930, twenty-eight and five; 1931, thirty-one and four; 1932, twenty-five and ten. From 1928 up to and including 1933, Grove won 151 games and dropped forty-one, averaging better than twenty-five victories against less than seven defeats. a a a ana Ct ROVE went to the mound forty-five times for Connie Mack during 3 the 1933 drive and It made no difference how the score stood and how his team was functioning—he tried his utmost to deliver up to the best, interests of the nine. In years to come the statisticians surely will have to place Robert Moses on a pedestal and point him out as one of the greatest lefthanders in the history of the national pastime. He is not en:ily discouraged and fits in with the Connie Mack system—try hard at all times. The fact that his former running mate, George Earnshaw, was sent heme a couple of times and finally dismissed, failed to upset Lefty and it's a good guess that if the Athletics happen to be an improved team a a whole in 1934, Grove wiil be found at the heights again, burning his j last ball by the hitters to pile up his usual twenty or more triumphs. a a a nun MANY football fans have requested a re-publication of the schedules j of Purdue. Notre Dame and Indiana. The three big colleges of the j itate play away from home so often that the grid followers within the j state are confused about home dates. For example, all three will be out; of the state tomorrow. Her are the schedules: Purdue —Oct. 21, Purdue at Chicago: Oct. 28. Purdue at Wisconsin; Nov. 4. Carnegie Tech at Purdue; Nov. 11, Purdue at Notre Dame; Nov. j 16, lowa a Purdue: Nov. 25, Purdue at Indiana. Notre Dame—Oct. 21, Notre Dame at Carnegie Tech; Oct. 28, Pittsburgh at Notre Dame: Nov. 4, Notre Dame vs. Navy at Baltimore; Nov. 11, Purdue at Notre Dame; Nov. 18. Notre Dame at Northwestern; Nov. 25, j Southern California at Notre Dame; Dec. 2, Notre Dame vs. Army at New York Indiana—Oct. 21. Indiana at Northwestern; Oct, 28, open; Nov. 4, Indiana at Ohio State; Nov. 11. Indiana at Chicago; Nov. 18, Indiana at Xavier, Cincinnati; Nov. 25. Purdue at Indiana. ana a a a DR ROBERT MAYNARD HUTCHINS, youthful president of the University of Chicago, expects Purdue to score an easy victory over the Maroons in their conference football game at Chicago tomorrow’. “The prospects for football at Chicago are not so good as the press w’ould lead one to believe," Dr. Hutchins told alumni of his university at their annual banquet in Indianapolis. “In fact, I expect to see the Hoosier boys romp all over the Maroons." a a a nan Boyhood friends of Frank 'Leftyi O'Doul, pinch hit hero of the 1933 world series, says he w’as Frenchy Odeau when they knew him around the street corners and sandlots in old San Francisco. Perhaps Lefty thought a Frenchman had no chance in baseball and switched to an Irish name. Anyway, it worked. aaa. a a a Jock Sutherland, football chief at Pittsburgh university, coaches the college wTestlers and boxers during the winter. Maybe that's the reason that Panther crew is so tough. a a a a a a Baseball stove league rumors: Woody English, infielder with the Chicago Cubs, is slated to go to the New York Giants and Marty McManus, ousted as manager of the Boston Red Sox, also may be taken I on by Bill Terry to protect his infield. English played with Toledo when j Terry was a star with the Mud Hens. a a a ana C-'i ABBY STREET, newly appointed manager of the San Francisco 3 Missions of the Pacific Coast League, was in that city as a player in 1906 when the destructive earthquake struck. And Gabby hot-footed for the east, “never to return.” The old depression changes a lot of minds. Just as well be in the land of the shakes as out of a job, eh, Sergeant? The New York Giants got the jitters out there this spring when Los Angeles w’as “rocking the boat,” but the boys thrived on the experience and won the pennant and world title. a a a a a a Well, they’re putting up temporary bleachers to take care of the overflow crowd at Ann Arbor Saturday. In other words, SRO joins NRA as O. S. U. meets U. of M.

INDIANAPOLIS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1933

I fracas “unbandaged." For several weeks. Wabash scouts have been hovering around at afi Bulldog contests. But in the past week. Mackey has completely i revamped the Blue offensive attack, | and whatever information was ob- | tamed will be of little use—maybe. The traditional battle undoubtedly will bring the largest crowd of the season, as the records from the north-side institution show’ that hundreds of grads and friends have signified intentions of attending the annual home-coming activities. Mackey said today he probably would start the following men: Ends, Thomas and Laymon; tackles, Browm and Armstrong; guards, Batts and Bunnell; center, Johnson; quarter back, J. Stewart; half backs. Ray and Weger; full back, Bob Stewart. Wabash to Parade Kij Times Special CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 20.

Frank Haas, rangy wingman, has displaced Emmett Lowery at left end because of his ability as a pass catcher. Two other line changes will see Ed Skoronski, sophomore, at center, and George Dennis, another rookie, at guard. Carl Heldt may start at left tackle in place of Captain Dutch Fehring, injured in Minnesota. Due to the mystery surrounding i Chicago’s offense which has rolled I up seventy-two points in two games, Purdue coaches have been working on the theory that the best defense will be a better offense.
