By Eddie Ash Brewers Suspicious of Wih Colonels • am I’rexy Hickey Kept on Jump This Year

'jpilh exciting. hi;rh-pressure, nerve-shattering pennant race in the American Association has caused some of the magnates to Keep a watchful eye on deals with enemy clubs, ror example, the Milwaukee Brewers purchased George Detore, utility pastimer, from Louisville, and stopped payment on the check. Brewer orficials l>ecame suspicious when Detore went on '.he sick list shortly rffter reporting and Louisville was accused of playing dirty pool. However, it is Ijelieved a practical jokester was at the lx>tiom of the “scandal.” At any rate, Milwaukee bosses were slipped the “inside info” that Detore had stones in his gall bladder. The Brewers refused to pay off until an investigation was completed, but since Detore has l>een appearing as pinch hitter with the Brewers recently it's possible that some of that good Milwaukee beer has dissolved the stones. It is believed Prexy T. .J. Hickey ironed out the “war" between the clubs at a hastily called meeting. T. .J. doesn't care to have a “stop payment racket” started in his league. He is too busy anyway, settling protested games among the pennant-hungry clubs. * a a a a a DETORE is the player whose name appeared in the box scores with two different clubs last week on the same day. The box scores showed him playing .shortstop for Louisville at Kansas City on Friday and pinch hitting for Milwaukee against Indianapolis at Milwaukee on the same afternoon Quite an •accomplishment, George, being in two places at the same time. The explanation 1 that the first game between the Blues and Colonels was a continuation of the contest started on July 13. and which was called by the Kaw management because of a threatening storm in the fourth inning. Louisville, leading 5 to 1 at the time, protested, and the protest was upheld by President Hickey, who ordered the game replayed from that point. At that time Detore was the Colonel shortstop. Since then he has been transferred to Milwaukee, but as the box score of the full game between the Blues and Colonels was carried, it made it seem that Detore w as an two places at once. a a a a a a At one time Prexy Hickey was confronted with three controversies among his teams. Louisville protested a Kansas City gam'', Minneapolis protested an Indianapolis victory and Milwaukee and Louisville were at loggerheads over player Detore. Stay in there. Tom! a a a a a a THE national championship auto racing classic at the Illinois state fair in Springfield next Saturday holds the spotlight of automobile racing this week. Faced with a 100-mile grind in their battle for the coveted title of United States speed king, Americas finest auto racing drivers, including veterans of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, are making last minute adjustments to high priced racing creations while the contest board of the American Automobile Association—national governing body of the sport—prepares to send the nations outstanding roster of officials to Springfield to supeivise the running of this important classic. W. D. <Eddic> Edenburn. of Detroit, chief steward at the Indianapolis track, has been named by Ted Allen, contest board secretary, to direct the Springfield championship. Bill Cummings. Indianapolis 500-mile winner; Mauri Rose, runner-up by twenty-seven seconds, and other leaders in the national championship rating of the contest board will race for the right to wear the niamond-studded national championship medal. a a a a a a I FOLLOWING the Springfield classic, the next national auto champion- * ship rare event will be the 100-mile battle at Syracuse, N. Y.. on .Sept. 8 The winner of the Springfield classic will receive 120 points toward the national championship with others also receiving points computed on a sliding scale. The ranking drivers, announced by the contest board and their point standing at this time are: Bill Cummings. 600 points; Mauri Rose, fit; LOU Moore. 248; A1 Miller, 210; Babe Stapp. 185.5; Cliff Bergere. 177; ’Deacon" Litz. 164.5; Russ Snowberger. 150; Frank Brisko. 645; Zcke Meyer, 40; Herb Ardmger, 39.75; Billy Winn, 11; Danny Day. 10.25. a a a a a a BILL TFRRY, manager of the New' York Giants, denies that he paid $25,000 for shortstop Billy Myers of the Columbus Red Birds, for delivery next spring. Terry says he paid $15,000, but had offered another $5,000 if Columbus would consent to send Myers to the Giants at once. Evidently Chief Terrv is a little worried about the left side of his infield. The St. Louis Cardinal chain, owner of the Red Birds, rejected the second New York proposition and emphasized that Myers would not be available to the Giants until next year.

Dizzy Loses Verdict, but Only After Noisy Confab Dean Exchanges Verbal Punches With Club Prexy as Judge Landis Sides With Cardinals. BY FOSTER EATON United Press Staff Correspondent ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 21.—Dizzy Dean and the St. Louis Cardinals were back on common ground today, but not on quite such a happy footing as the management and the fans might desire. There was no general round of forgive-and-forget handshaking in the twilight of yesterday when baseball’s commissioner, K. M. Landis, ruled 100 per cent against Dizzy in his week-long strike.

Dean was sore and sour. He admitted that some of the things he had done were wrong, and he was sorry, but throughout a heated fourhour hearing he battled the management like a slugging boxer, toe-to-toe. “Don’t call me a liar!” snapped President Sam Breadon at one particular torrid point. “I’m not,” shot back Dizzy, “but don’t you call me one, either!” That's about the kind of a hearing it was. At the end, Judge Landis said he felt it “not unreasonable” that the Cardinals suspend Dean for ten days for “striking” when fined SIOO for failure to appear for an exhibition game against Detroit a week ago. The ruling, somewhat tempered by a relenting Breadon, meant that Dean not only had to pay SIOO in fines, but lost seven days’ pay, $350, and paid an additional $36 to cover two uniforms he angrily tore up when told he was fined—total $486. If the Cardinals had gone the full way authorized by Landis, he would have lost $636. Dean’s brother Paul, who struck with him, but capitulated after three days, lost SSO in fines and S6O in pay, so that the week cost the Dean family $5&5. Aside from closely examining the trouble-making record of the elder Dean, the hearing went slightly into a discussion of the Cardinals’ recent widely-publicized invitation to his brother, Elmer, to come here from Houston, Tex., for a job. "I thought you were going to give him a good job,” Dizzy fired at Brradon, “but you had the newspapers print that he was going to be a peanut peddler, so Elmer went home.” In that kind of an atmosphere, handshaking didn’t appeal to Dizzy. He nevertheless admitted he would be back in uniform today, saying "I can’t afford to lose any more money.” NO WRESTLING TONIGHT The next wrestling show to be staged under the auspices of the Hercules A. C. at Sports arena on North Pennsylvania street has been slated for Tuesday night, Aug. 28. Matchmaker Lloyd Carter was unable to find a powerful opponent for George (Cry Baby) Zaharias, whom he had signed to appear in a main go tonight, and the regular weekly mat card was postponed.
