FANS CHANT ‘WE WANT RUTH’ AS YANKEES TAKE LACING

Poor Joe McCarthy in for More Worry as Boys Boot Ball, Fail to Solve Grove Costly Rookie Injures Self Again, Williams Reports; Boston Vet Shines in 8-0 Victory; Spectators Cry Mockingly for Old Hero While Selkirk Bats. JOE WILLIAMS Times Rpeelsl Writer NEW YORK, April 18—Your correspondent has just discovered to his astonishment that the dugouts at the Yankee Stadium are upholstered, and that the athletes do not warm the benches, as he saying goes, but instead, squat themselves down on very comfortable cushions.

Only the uninitiated will scoff at this, for they have no way of knowing how really fatiguing baseball Is —especially if you are a Yankee rooter attending the home opening

and you are forced to watch them kick a ball game away to the goldlined Red Sox from Boston. The dugouts are done in attractive Persian tans, the motif and the design suggesting the fashionable Elsie De Wolfe touch, and the advice is the innovation* is soon to be enlarged to include

Williams

arm chairs, Venetian blinds, canopies and a red carpeted approach. The idea obviously is to recapture some of the old virility of the game, to recreate the atmosphere that was present back in the days when Pop Anson, Buck Ewing, Old Hoss Radbourne and their aesthetic like wore their handkerchiefs in their sleeves and sniffed from golden boxes. Whoops! o n tt NO matter how comfortable the cushions may have been, Buffalo Joe McCarthy, the Yankees’ manager, spent a very miserable afteroon. Right off he learned that Di Maggio, the sensational rookie, had hurt his injured leg all over again and would be out for three more weeks. It so happens that the Yankees do not need Di Maggio any morq than a sentimental song writer needs the moon. The game started and the Yankees proceeded to put on a demonstration that must have started Col. Abner Doubleday whirring in his vault. Charley Brickley at his peak never gave % more sustained exhibition of kicking. Chapman. Gehrig, Lazzeri and Johnson accounted for four boots or errors. Actually there were five errors. Ruffing made one when he presumed he could outpitch Lefty Grove. a a tt A LL during this ordeal, while baseballs were bouncing out of the fielders' hands like capricious bull frogs, and the ancient Grove was turning back the Yankees with a sne.er and a high hard one. Buffalo Joe McCarthy sat in the dugout stewing in his own juices. And then came the eighth inning and the most unkindest cut of all. Selkirk. the fellow they gave Babe Ruth's immortal No. 3 to. led off. The score at this point was 8 to 0 against the Yankees, and the shivering 23,000 scattered through the immense stands, looked around for a sacrificial goat. As they looked around their eyes fell on a familiar figure in a tan ulster. This gave them their inspiration. In unison they began to chant "We want Ruth, we want Ruth, we want Ruth.” And they kept on chanting thus until Selkirk lined uito Werber’s hand. You can appreciate this must be quite embarrassing to a manager who is trying to get his club straightened out so it can win a couple of ball games. a a a THE Boston Millionaires, as the boys are calling Mr. Tom Yawkey s slaves, looked like a million dollars behind Grove's twohit pitching. Most teams usually do look impressive behind that kind of pitching. Grove’s pitching wni the feature of the opener. He was putting the ball wherever he wanted it. The murky skies made his fast ball look faster than it really was. but it was fast enough. It is a delight to watch Grove pitch these days. He is no longer a rearback and fire pitcher. He pitches to the batter's weakness all the t ime and tries to stay ahead of him, i. e„ keep him in the hole with respect to balls and strikes. Clark Griffith once said no pitcher ever learned to pitch until he had first hurt his arm. There's more truth than delicatessen in that observation. Walter Johnson was a prize example. Until he hurt his arm he had only one concern and that w as to throw the ball past the hitter. It wasnt’ until he had lost most of his speed that he paid any attention to the value of pitching subtleties. The same was and is true of Grove, who as a technician, is a better pitcher todav than he ever was. Certainly he, has pitched few more effective games than the one of yesterday when the only Yankee to hit him safely was Gehrig, who singled twice. . . . The press box statistician has just informed me that this is Grove's third consecutive shutout victory over the Yankees, in view of which information possibly Mr. Grove s performance may not be so important after all. . . . "What’s that Johnny?” . . . “Oh. yes, the \ ankees did have a murderers’ row T at one time, but that was years and years ago.” Badger Heads Deny Selection of Crisler By United Press MADISON. Wis..

Times Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., April 18.— A renewed scramble for positions on the Indiana University baseball team is under way.

Bill Baise, first baseman and Tommy Thompson, second sacker, became ill on the trip, but have recovered. Indiana will play three home games next week, meeting Butler Tuesday, and Ohio State in the Big Ten opener Friday and Saturday.

Stemm’s 684 High in Local Pin Sessions Champion Hi-Brus Also in Form as Fountain Loop Faces Maples. BY BERNARD HARMON Paul Stemm today had another brilliant total on his list of season’s scoring achievements, for in last night’s session of the Fountain Square Recreational League he outscored all local rivals with a 684 total. Rolling in the anchor position for Marott Shoes he led his team to a three-game victory over Lagers by tossing games of 2CO, 223 and 258. Harry Wheeler helped with a 631 and the victors wound up with a 2978 series. Falls City Hi-Brus, 1936 A. B. C. champs, engaged in an interesting series with Bowes Seal Fast, who finished seventh in the recently concluded national event. The champions welded games of 987, 1008 and 1065 into a 3060 total, which was tops among teams competing on local alleys last night. The series, made possible through Joe Fulton’s 641, Charley Cray’s 618, Ray Roberson’s 610, Clarence Mack’s 599 and Carl Hardin’s 592, gave them a double win over the Seal Fasts, who had Dan Abbott’s 611 as their leading total. Cook’s Goldblumes placed three members in the honor class as they nabbed a trio of victories over Acetylene Products. Jess Pritchett Sr. had 656, Lee Carmin 634 and Don Johnson 610. Dan Hornbeck’s 640 was high for the losers. Charles Denby Cigars won twice from Sterling Beer, Hank Shriver of the winners featuring with a 617. Washington Leaguers in Form Several members of the Washington League, rolling at the Illinois Alleys, found the pocket and emerged from their three-game series with totals well over the 600 mark. Paul Cooper used games of 212, 220 and 213 for a 645 that proved tops in the loop. Bob Wuensch and Phil Seyfried of the Kernel Opticals tossed totals of 635 and 604 as the team scored an easy three-time victory over Hoosier Optical. The winners opened with a 1053, which carried them to a 2886, the top team total of the evening. George Godwin with 615 and John Blue with 613 were other honor shooters. Hold Construction Lead ‘"Stewart-Carey Glass Cos., despite its double defeat by Railroad Men’s Building & Savings Association, clung to the lead in the Construction League’s sizzling race. Art Dobbins totaled 609 for the Stewart’s but his mates failed to back him up and the tiara took the double beating. Ed Pierre’s 626 was good for loop honors, with Ted Arnold’s 616 gaining him the runnerup position. Honor series in other loops were scarce, Cox of the Hillcrest Country Club League with a 635 and McNulty of the St. Joan of Arc League with a 633 being the only other pastimers to pass the 600 mark. The Kernel Optical Ladies’ League was in session at the Pritchett Alleys, with Race Johns and Lucile Rice furnishing the feature solo series. The former had a 569 and latter a 564. With the two high scorers performing on the Sunshine Cleaners, that aggregation nabbed team honors with a 2568, good for a sweep over the opposing Coca Colas.

Thirtieth and Illinois Street Merchants will hold the first drill of the season on Riverside No. 8 Sunday at 10:30.
