By Eddie Ash Davis Sings Blues, Watkins Is Happy m m 9 May Be Other Way Around Next Fall
\yHEN George (Kiddo) Davis, outfielder, was traded by the champion New York Giants to the St. Louis Cardinals a week or so ago he was ready to break out in tears. Fact is, it hurt him so he left the Florida training camp of the Giants and returned home to Bridgeport, Conn., for a rest to regain composure. George was mighty proud last fall when the Giants won the pennant and he helped defeat the Washington Senators in the world series by batting .368. But the Giants this spring decided they needed a long distance lefthanded hitter, and Davis was sacrificed to obtain George Watkins. Mr. Watkins was a Cardinal holdout, but gave three cheers when the deal was put through that sent him to the champions. lie joined up at once and stated he was overjoyed “to become a fugitive from the Cardinal chain gang.’ Kiddo Davis shook off the “blues” and is now working hard with the Cardinals. It would be a trick ol fate if, in the fall, St. Louis lands on top with the pennant and the Giants finish out of the world series melon. It’s a difficult matter to read the future in baseball. For example, the Giants were picked to finish sixth last year and wound up in first place, after which they captured the long end of the title series money. It may be Kiddo Davis’ turn to laugh next fall while George Watkins means low. a a a a a * THE “feud” angle is going to be worked for all it’s worth in the major feagues this year and some of it is not just bunkum. George Earnshaw has been reported stating he intends to “dust off” Mickey Cochrane, a former teammate, the Giants and Dodgers are “feuding, and it s a cinch the Cardinals and Phillies will be at each other’s throat on account of . the trouble between Frankie Frisch and Jimmy Wilson when Frisch was appointed Cardinal manager last summer to succeed Gabby Street and Wilson thought the job belonged to him. Wilson is now pilot of the Phillies. There is a personal feud that had its inception in a radio speech delivered by one Dizzy Dean of the St. Louis Nationals last year. Pitcher Guy Bush of the Cubs was listening in and the Dean broadcast set him aflame. Dean was quoted as saying the Cubs were “yellow” and he hoped to face Bush the next day and that if he did the game was “in the bag” for the Cards. Bush reported the speech to his teammates the next day. He asked manager Charlie Grimm to send him in against Dean. He taunted Dizzy about the radio speech, and the Cubs chased Dean to the showers in the third inning with an avalanche of six runs. a a a a a a ON the final day of the 1933 season, pitchers Bush and Dean were pitted against each other again in St. Louis. Bush again reminded his mates of the Dean broadcast, and the result was that the Cubs aided Bush to tack up his twentieth victory of the season. “I hope manager Grimm will let me pitch for the Cubs every time the Cardinals send Dean to the mound against us this season,” Bush said recently. “I get more satisfaction out of beating that guy once than I do winning from any one else twice.” Bush has been with the Cubs since 1924. Last season was one of his best. He attributes his improvement to a study of the pitching style of Carl Hubbell, left-handed star of the New York Giants. a a a a a a TOM ANGLEY is back in the American Association. The St. Louis Cardinal “chain" shuffled their baseball paste boards again and “up popped” the robust backstop with the Columbus Red Birds. Baseball sharps thought this move was sure to be made when Indianapolis traded Tom to Rochester for catcher Joe Sprinz. Angley always batted well against Columbus, and as both Columbus and Rochester are owned by the Cardinals, it was an easy matter to route the beefy receiver from the Red Wings to the Red Birds. It was announced that outfielder Lewis Whitehead was sent to Rochester by Columbus in exchange for the former Indianapolis roly poly. It will be interesting to watch Lazy Bones exhibit his playboy stuff when Columbus visits Perry stadium. Tom played good ball in streaks for the Indians, but the “streaks” were far apart. He lost his home run punch last season and was rather indifferent at times. Playing with the champion Red Birds, however, may arouse some vigor in the warhorse and spur him to shake off that tired southern feeling.

Klem Bewails Lack of Youngsters in Umpiring Game
BY DANIEL < Batting for Joe Williams) MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 7. —William Joseph Klem, dean of National League umpires and stentorian poet laureate of his line, dawdled over his ham and eggs, sausages and divers other impedimenta of a Klemian breakfast today and once more announced himself as “the man who never has called one wrong.” This self-portrait of Klem is far from a pose. Bill actually believes it to be a mast faithful picture. No man in any phase of baseball ever has believed in himself more than does this veteran shouter of strikes and balls. Past SO. but looking at least ten years younger, still spry, still aggressive for his rights and more jealous than ever of his privileges, Klem is about to enter on his thirtieth season as an umpire in the ancient circuit. “Retire? What for?” roared Klem. like Demosthenes shouting over the waves, and the adjacent crockery rattled as if in a Los Angeles temblor. “I have umpired more than five thousand games and have seen myself develop financially

Spence swam the distance in 2:43.5. His old record was 2:44. Walter Spence, brother of Leonard, won the 220-yard free style from Medica and created anew meet record of 2:11.6 in doing so.

But at no time have I given any thought to quitting. “I have a lot of work to do, not only as an umpire, but as a teacher of the young idea. What ails the young men in baseball today? Why do they shy away from umpiring? It is comparatively easy work, the hours are short, the pay is excellent, and your years of service are long. And yet it is getting more and more difficult to get umpires of major league quality.” a a a THE interviewer suggested to Klem that since he had been on the job in the National League from 1905 without a break, he owed

INDIANAPOLIS, SATURDAY, APRIL *7, 1934
Terry May Make Deal Giants’ Manager Reported as Considering Parting With Hurler. By United Press MEMPHIS, Tenn., April 7.—Manager Bill Terry of the world champion New York Giants, who is supposed to have one of the most brilliant pitching staffs in history’, announced today that he was negotiating for another experienced hurler. He indicated that the deal was nearing consummation, and added, “A player and cash will figure in the transaction.” Five defeats in seven games with the Indians apparently decided Memphis Bill upon this move. He declined to reveal further details until the deal is completed. Players and writers figure Terry will trade infielder Hugh Critz or an outfielder for the pitcher to the Braves or Cardinals. The Braves, it is understood, might exchange pitcher Huck Betts for Critz to replace the injured Rabbit Maranville. Or the Cards might give Bill Hallahan for a flychaser. The refusal of George Davis to report to St. Louis has left Frankie Frisch in a serious predicament. Still other rumors have an outfielder going to the Dodgers. This seems unlikely because Casey Stengel needs pitchers worse than Terry.

it to would-be umpires to draw up a credo for them. “The average fan believes that eyesight is the most important factor in umpiring,” said Klem as he stabbed an innocent sausage. “Asa matter of cold fact, your eyes are perhaps the least vital feature of your equipment for the job. Os course, I don’t mean to say that a blind man can umpire. If you listen to the players, we are all blind, anyway. “But the primary essential is good judgment. Then you must have nerve. After that, ability to handle a crisis. Sight rates fourth. “You must umpire for the ball and not for the man. And you must call that third strike —always and anywhere.

Rolling with the Berghoff Beer team, Evan paced this loop by a wide margin. He spilled the maples for 247, 224 and 267 for 738. With this smashing total and a 616 by Ahearn and a 614 by Hanna, this scored an easy three-game victory from Kaser Tire Service. Haley was en route to the A. B. C. tournament and remarked that the only place for that total is in the singles event. Berghoff Beer fired a 3.110 on games of 1,060 . 983 and 1,067.

the man who ran the game was a ‘homer’—that is, he leaned toward the home club. Too often he was a man who had been chosen for the job chiefly because he was supposed to be handy with his fists. “The players felt that they had a right to bulldoze the umpire, throw dirt in his eyes and step on his feet. The umpires accepted all this as a matter of course—things that went with the job. a a a “TT7ELL, in the spring of 1905 VV William Joseph Klem broke in as a National League umpire in Cincinnati.

old league, whom had Klem found the toughest player to handle? Bill sank a vicious fork into a hunk of ham and exploded: “Evers—Johnny Evers in his prime with the Cubs! “Off the field, Evers was sane and calm. On the diamond rowdyism was a religion with him. He felt that his reputation had been built up largely on his notions of aggressiveness. and nothing I could say to him could persuade him that he was wrong. In later years, I had the satisfaction of having Evers come to me and admit that I had given him the correct slant.” Klem was born in Rochester, N. Y., on Feb. 22. 1874, and was the second youngest of a family of ten children. He was a semi-pro first baseman and catcher, and one of his pitchers was Silk O’Loughlin, who later became famous as a shouting umpire in the American League.

Many Answer Niblack’s Golf Problem — But None Solves It
BY DICK MILLER Many answers have been received to the mathematical golf schedule problem that confronted John L. Niblack and Kenny Hoy as they attempted to arrange a team match program for the five clubs of the Indianapolis Public Links Golf Association. Most of the solutions offered have one team playing two matches on the same course. Some have two matches or four teams playing on the same course the same day, which would interfere with the play of the regular patrons who are not involved in the matches. Niblack today presents a few additional points for the mathematical experts to consider in working out the problem. First, no team is to play more than one of its matches with the other four teams on the same J course. Second, no team is to play more | than one match on any one day of five set aside and not more than one team match is to be played on any one course the same day. The ave association clubs are Coffin, Riverside, South Grove, Pleasant Run and Sarah Bhank. The dates that the courses are available for these inter-associa-tion team matches are'June 3, June 24, July 8, Aug. 12 and Sept. 9.
