By Eddie Ash Schoolboy Rowe’s Great Arm Goes Lame o u m Youth of 22 Faces Baseball Bone Yard
desire to win, overenthusiasm, eagerness to shine in New' York and the shortsightedness of a big league manager all have combined to threaten ruin to the fine pitching arm of Schoollxjv Rowe, only last spring heralded as one of the greatest mound prospects ever to break into the majors. Reports from southern training camps indicate the Arkansas lad is just alwut through. His salary wing has failed to respond to treatment and the boy’s spirit is nearly broken. Rowe was placed under the care of Dr. Cecil Ferguson a few days ago in Miami and the Hoosier medico and bonesetter located the trouble in the shoulder but was not ready to state if he thought the strength of the arm would come back. Dr. Ferguson hails from Terre Haute and was a famous pitcher himself at one time with the New' York Giants. Lynw’ood Rowe is just 22 and a giant from the southw’est, standing 6 feet 4 inches and weighing 205 pounds. The condition of his throwing arm has frightened him and the big boy hesitates to do any work. He has been worried since early in the 1933hampionship season. a a a nan WHEN Schoolboy traveled north with the Detroit Tigers in the spring of 1933 his fame had spread before him. He had demonstrated brilliant form in the south and also was rated a slugger as well as a pitcher. A slight soreness developed in his arm and he injured it by starting too scon against the White Sox. Later, in June, the Tigers invaded New York and it was Schoolboy's first visit to the big city. His arm was not right, but he said nothing. Manager Buckv Harris let the lad know in advance that he would be sent against Bobe Ruth. Lou Gehrig. Bill Dickey and other swatters. The kid was willing. He was proud, and relayed the information back home to Arkansas. When Rowe took the mound he believed he had got over his early arm soieness. In the first inning, facing Ruth, the young hurler bore down too much, something snapped and the kid was in pain. Manager Harris failed to fathom the fact the youngster was suffering and Rowe stayed in the box until knocked out in the third inning. He has not been strong since. m n tt ana CAREFUL treatment may bring Rowe back. There is nothing sure about it. however, despite the fact he is only 22. History of baseball reveals “rebuilt” arms, but it also discloses many pitchers passed out early because of arm or shoulder strains. Modern methods of treatment scored a remarkable triumph in 1922 in the case of Jack Scott. He was with the Cincv Reds when his salary whip suddenly went out oi commission and it appeared to bo wrecked. Jack finally was tossed to the bone vard by the Redlegs with an unconditional release. Thereupon Jack appealed to John McGraw of the Giants. The pitcher was thou* funds and McGraw staked him and sent him to a bone speciau.->t in Sew York, a personal friend. And Scott recovered! He became a winner again and in the world series of that year scored an astounding upset over the New York Yankees. aaa a p TNFORMATION reaching Indianapolis says Hoosierdorns illustrious big I leaguer. Charles Herbert Klein, better known as f C^ p ck ph^ eo a c^s ' ference of opinion” with Charlie Grimm, manager of the Chicago Cubs. Windy City newspapers declare Klein moved himself out of center field, where his new boss had assigned him. Grimm had plans for pla l g the National League’s chief slugger in the middle P^ ai ? d lp ° a p ’ nounced himself, but he forgot to consult Klein. When Chuck of it officially he went to Grimm and lodged a mild protest wh.reupon Chief Charlie proved to be accommodating by bringing about the necessary rearrangements-and Ki Ki Cuyler was assigned to center Klein explained that he felt he would be unable to do himseL or the team justice in center field, and asked to be stationed in right or left. CLuc* had some experience in center during his years with the Pnilly Nationals and discovered he could not get the jump on drives, and was confused by the “angles.” His first choice is the right garden, wnere he is polished, but he has no objection to left field. Officials of the Bruins desire the fans to know there was no quarrel between Manager Grimm ar.d Klein and that Chuck's preference as to his fielding position was settled without a hitch. a a a a tt tt PAUL DEAN, brother of Jerome (.Dizzy) Dean, has been named Harpo by the St. Louis Cardinal players. It is Paul’s first long stretch in the Cardinal training camp, but he has done very little talking. The brother pitchers chum together and the "handle,” Harpo, was wished on Paul on account of the fact he gets no chance to talk when Dizzy has him in tow, merely nodding Iris assent to whatever his older brother has to say.

Irish Victory Shatters Cage Tourney Tradition
By Times Special CHICAGO, March 22.—The Catholic Central high basketball team of Pittsburgh defeated Catholic high of Little Rock, Ark., 48 to IC, in the fourth of the first-round games of the National Catholic interscholastic basketball tournament today. By Times Special CHICAGO, March 22.—Cathedral high school of Indianapolis broke a tradition of national Catholic prep basketball tournaments here last night as the Hoosiers defeated St. Catherine’s of Dubois, Pa., 23 to 16. 16. For years the defending national champions have played in the open-
armory when he defeated Roland Kirchmeyer, tall Kansas husky. Matchmaker Lloyd Carter plans to go the limit in lining up an allstar “bargain bill” of nationally known mat artists for Tuesday and he has signed Man Mountain Dean, the “biggest of them all,” for the semi-windup bout against Charlie Strack, crack Boston heavyweight. Dean scales 305 pounds and has been a tremendous drawing card in the east where his bone-crushing tactics, brought up from the hills of Georgia, have given him triumphs over numerous top ranking performers. He is hailed as a powerful giant whose only defense is his offense, and he is a much soughtafter grappler by matchmakers throughout the country. Strack scales 235 and comes from Boston. He is a former Olympic grappler and claims the distinction of being the only wrestler to represent the United States in two Olympic meets. Strack was a member of the United States wrestling team at Amsterdam and Paris. Carter announces that there will be no increase in prices for Tuesday night’s show.
