Foul Ball Social Club Adds Presidential Sweepstake to Debating List, Joe Reports Many Scribes Take Up Affairs of State Along With Joe Louis’ Durability and Foxx’ Usefulness; Hear Roosevelt Is ‘Going Hepburn.’ BY JOE WILLIAMS Time* Special Writer NEW YORK, Feb. 10.—I don’t know whether it is a healthy sign or not but our set is beginning to take a drooling interest in the presidential sweepstakes along with their other weighty problems such as, can Joe Louis take it and how much will Jimmy Foxx help the Red Sox? The weekly meetings of our set at the Foul Ball Social Club are conducted on a catch-as-catch-car basis with no holds barred, where the political philosophy of an inmate is appraised by the amount of mileage he can get on a stout pair of tonsils. One of the boys was talking about Mr. Jim Farley’s speech in Miami ... “I always thought he was a teetotaler. But in one sentence he talks about the bourbons and the next about orange rind. That sounds like an old-fashioned cocktail to me. and he could have left out that rap about the Brooklyn ball club, too. . . .”
“What rap?’’ asked Dead Heat Dave, the ever-trying turfman. “That rap where he talks about people who learn nothing and for-
get nothing.” “I don’t see how you can forget anything if you don't learn anything,” puzzled Dead Heat Dave. “Well, Babe Herman could and anyway skip it . . . Did you see where the old Galloping Ghost may get the coaching job at
Joe Williams
Cornell?” Mention of Red Grange, whose exploits on the gridiron thrilled the nation a decade ago, reminded Four Eyes O'Goofty that, somebody had recently seen Lincoln’s ghost in the White House. “Guess he was getting ready to take a walk with A1 Smith, eh?” laughed Pete the Waiter as he buttoned anew foamy collar on all the glasses. They Back A1 A number of members of the Foul Ball Social Club are from the lower East Side and they think A1 Smith is an all right gee on any kind of track. They have no patience with those who charge A1 has got his noodle measured for the high topper. . . . “People are saying A1 has ‘moved up town’ because he don’t say rad-dio no more. That’s a joke. He’s just improved his speech. Is there any law against that? The radio’s improved too, ain’t it?” This latter contention did not strengthen the position of the proSmithians because it seemed to be the sense of the majority that if radio improvement was to be measured by amateur hours, jug blowers and hog callers there could be little to boast about. In this connection Nosey McNibbs recalled that the housewives of Baltimore had put the blast on Gov. Talmadge, the wild man of Sugar Creek, because he used what they thought was abusive language on the air. Tune In at Your Own Risk ’ And I think I know how those dames feel," went on Nosey. “I tuned in on Talmadge myself, thinking I might get a laugh anyway, but, all I got was a very conspicuous pain in the neck. Talmadge wasn't as abusive as he was punishing. They have danger signals at grade crossings and quarantine laws against contagious disease but in these political eruptions you turn the dial at your own risk, and if you get nothing but static you are lucky. From now on I’m going to take vanilla.” The news that President Roosevelt had become camera shy and would permit only posed pictures to be taken of him in the future moved the boys to scattered comment. “So this means they can't take no more action pictures of him, eh?” said Pete the Waiter who was back with more neck pieces for the glasses. “Well, that leaves him wide open for a swifty from those Liberty Leaguers. Like this: ‘Whaddayoumean. No more action pictures? Say, the Supreme Court took all the action out of him a month ago.’ Pete laughed. He is an excellent audience. Why He Went Ilepburn The President didn't go Hepburn on the camera men without cause. One of them snapped an informal picture with his glasses off and his ■est hand pressed against his eyes. It suggested an attitude of dejection, whereas it was merely a characteristic pose of a gentleman massaging thp upper part of his face. Some of the newspaper captions over the picture suggested in effect he was about to retire from the heavyweight tournament before the first blow was struck. ’ Well, if he’s going to pose for his pictures in the future" grumbled Dead Heat Dave, “I wish he'd fetch that mysterious gaffer named prosperity from around that corner and pose with him. I just blowed another five-horse parlay and even if everything was all right with the country I’d still say, give it back to the Indians.” It should be stated Dead Heat Dave never had much sympathy for the original settlers.

Venzke Gains Track Throne ‘Also Ran’ Overtakes Rivals in Mile; Two Hoosiers Show Speed. R)i United Press NEW YORK, Feb. 10—Gene Venzke, Pennsylvania runner, is temporarily the No. 1 miler of the winter circuit. The lanky Penn athlete, who never gave up during the years he ran second to Glenn Cunningham, Bill Bonthron and others, beat Joe Mangan, Cornell's conqueror of Cunningham, in the Hunter mile Saturday in Boston. Venzke was timed in 4:14.4, good time for the Boston track. He won by six inches from Mangan, but is anxious to prove his victory was no fluke in the Baxter mile of the N. Y. A. C. games next Saturday night in Madison Square Garden. Venzke already has entered the Baxter mile and hopes both Mangan and Cunningham also will compete. Venzke now boasts victc;'i“s over both Cunningham and Mangan this season. He ran second to Mangan by a step in the Wanamaker mile Feb. 1, but beat Cunningham. Two Hoosiers Win Charles Hornbostel, former Indiana University flyer, staged another brilliant drive at tho finish to register a victory over Harry Williamson of North Carolina and Bill Ray of Manhattan in the 1000-yard event at Boston Saturday. His time of 2:13.8 was the fastest in the history of the Prout Memorial meet. Ray Sears, former Butler University distance ace, added to his prestige as the nation’s leading twomiler by winning over his rival, Joe McCluske.v, New York A. C. runner. The Hoosier finished seven yards ahead of McCluskey in 9 minutes and 32 seconds. Both Hoosiers will compete in the New York A. C. games next Saturday night.

100 More City Pin Teams Needed to Break Record Local A. B. C. Officials Striving to Top Syracuse Entry of 2837; ‘Smoker’ Tonight.
BY BERNARD HARMON IF Indianapolis is to play host to a bigger A. B. C. entry than the 2837 teams that set a record at Syracuse last year, 100 additional local aggregations must be recruited before the deadline is reached at midnight Wednesday. Workers out of local headquarters renewed their drive for the additional entries after the deadline was extended by Elmer H. Baumgarten, secretary of the national organization. Though the latest campaign has failed thus far to boost the entry over the 1000-team goal, the more optimistic officials of the local group predict the mark will be passed and that the 100 quintets needed for the record will be obtained. Word received Saturday from Mr. Baumgarten’s headquarters in Milwaukee assured the city of the greatest oui-of-state representation in A. B. C. history. Fourteen hundred twenty-five have forwarded entries, and the secretary’s office is at present attempting to work out a schedule that will give the visitors their preferred dates. Last year’s record entry at the Syracuse event included more than 2000 teams from the State of New York, a large per cent of them being booster squads, which did not include double and single entries. With the huge delegation of out-of-state quintets being scheduled for the Indianapolis event, anew high should be reached in the two-man and individual events. Local tourney headquarters in the Severin will ha open day and night until the entry drive closes, and teams desiring to make entry must do so before midnight Wednesday. u tt a A smoker, sponsored by the Indianapolis A. B. C. Tournament Corporation, is to be held on the top floor of the Lincoln Hotel tonight. Admission to the affair is one dollar and the public is invited. Two floor shows along with other entertainment are on the program, which is to get under way at 9. Proceeds of the affair are to be used in defraying the corporation’s expense in staging the 1936 classic. man THE annual state tournament for feminine bowlers is scheduled for Evansville March 14, 15, 21 and 22. Entry blanks and other information may be obtained from Laura Alexander or Amy McDaniels. Mrs. Alexander may be reached at Irvington 3536 and Mrs. McDaniels at Drexel 7108-W. o a a A 1050 scratch handicap team tournament is to be staged at the new Pennsylvania Alleys next Saturday and Sunday. With an opportunity to roll on alleys that will be exactly like the A. B. C. tournament drives, a large turnout of aggregations scheduled to roll in the big event are expected to enter. Entry fee is $lO a team, including bowling charges, and all teams must be sanctioned. Entries close at midnight Friday. For information call Oakley Woodward, manager of the alleys, at Riley 0078. • a o u Chuck Markey's mighty blast at the maples in the Washington League session of Friday night was easily last week's outstanding pin performance. The youthful East Sider. on games of 289, 245 and 258. totaled 792, anew individual series record among city pastimers during the current season. He evidently warmed up for his record-breaker in his three prior league appearances for he assempled a 668 in the St. Philip No. 1. a 848 in the Uptown Recreation and a 625 In the Printcraft. having an average slightly under 228 for the twelve games. m m m When Carl Hardin amassed games of 534, 268 and 217 for a 719. he won runnerup honors of the fire days of league activities. The big total, which was his best of the current season, came in the Printcraft Leagues matches of Thursday night, and represents the top individual seriea at the loop's 1935-36 campaign. The third 706 of the week came from Leo Ahearn. who with games of 211, 213 and 215 totaled 762 in the Commercial League. mam Jack Hunt threatened the 700 mark, but again fell a few pms short of his goal. He had a 698 in the Fountain Bquare Recreation session.

Kentucky to Tangle With Butler Here Locals Prepare Defense to Stop Carlyle in Tilt Tomorrow Night. The Butler Bulldog basketball team will resume its home schedule tomorrow' night against the University of Kentucky quintet at the Fieldhouse. The home game follows a road tour which took the Hinklemen into three states. Several first string men are having to “step fast” because of the sophomores that are crowding them for varsity positions. Big Bill Merrill, reserve center, has improved considerably since the first o f the season and has seen much action on the road trips. Willard Fawcett, scrappy little guard from Logansport, is pushing the two varsity guards for their positions. New Plays Coming Up Coach Hinkle has been teaching the reserve men several new plays which he expects to try out against the Kentucky team. He has taken care to warn his guards to watch Carlyle, husky forward on the Wildcat squad. Carlyle plays the spectacular “fire department” type of ball and has averaged around 17 and 18 points per game. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest scorers in the country. The Bulldogs are in Evanston, 111., today for the finale of their barnstorming trip against Northwestern University. The Wildcats rallied last year in a New Year’s Eve celebration to down the Hinklemen, 41 to 36. The locals have won two and lost three games on the Northern invasion, and prior to that they dropped tilts to Notre Dame =tnd Earlham since last appearing on the home floor. Observe Naismith Week.
