Flood Drama
Williams’ First Out-of-Town |”
Assignment Furnished Setting for Thriller.
By JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—I haven't . yet seen anything in the flood news ~ about Hickn:an, Ky. That's a little Southern pueblo I'll never forget. I'll always look back on it with a warm feeling for a one-time great ball player and with a red-faced embarrassment for my own dumb- . ness. I was about 18 at thé time, a cub in the sports department of the ' Memphis Commercial-Appeal. It was in late March and our Southern League baseball team had booked two’ exhibition games up the river with the Minneapolis team of : American ASsOciation. The Millers were training at Hickman, a typical rural ‘river front village with a brief main street, magnolia trees, white houses, with colonial pillars and a makeshift mud levee. Old Joe Cantillon wa s managing the Millers. Nobody ever knew why he picked Hickman as a training base unless it was that the duck shooting was good. So was the fishing. Old Joe had €ome to Minneapolis from Washington and pretty soon he had assembled himself a full + roster of veterans. At any rate he had such venerable war horses as Rube Waddell, Jimmy Williams, Dave Altizer, a couple of the Delehantys, Yip Owens, Wade Killefer, Roy Patterson ,and others. Practically every man‘on the squad had seen ex- : tended service in the majors; they - were back in the minors now striving to stave off the inevitable as long as possible.
* ‘The Big Chance Comes
= The kindly Tom Scarborough, sports editor, sent me up to Hick- " man with the home team on what -- was my first out-of-town assign- “ ment. Richard Harding Davis “never went to the battle front : flushed with higher excitement or higher resolves . . . “Don’t waste any * words on fancy writing,” instructed -.. Mr. Scarborough. “Keep it short . and get the score right.” The Mississippi was on its usual spring rampage, sullen, angry and bloated from the rains and the - melting snow up north. The river was already at flood level when our = train pulled into Hickman. The game was played and I got “my first and only look at the great Waddell in the box; he came close . to being my sports idol at the time. I knew his big league record backwards. His tremendous performances with the Athletics and later with the St. Louis Browns. The + legend about his calling the three . outfielders in and then striking out ‘the side.
Got the Score Right
: I was hoping he would do some- - thing like that this afternoon but he didn’t. He pitched three innings with conventional behavior and a - whirring fast ball. The Memphis ~ players didn’t get a run off him and 7” my recollection is they didn’t get a ‘~hit either. In the end they were beaten and I composed some sort » of piece the. principal virtue of "" which was the score was correct. The two teams were to play again the next day, a Sunday. So that night the ball players sat around in the lobby of the twostory Merchants Hotel and talked shop. I noticed Waddell wasn't around. Somebody said he had had . a fight with his wife and had gone down to the village saloon. He didn’t have to work the next day, so “apparently it didn't matter. ° Some two hours later the droning “of the lobby conversationalists was + broken by a furious ding-donging of the firehouse bell .... “That means there's trouble down on the river front,” the hotel clerk explained. “I guess the levee’s busted again.” The ominous music of the bell was a general call for volunteers. Rush for the Levee The lobby was swiftly emptied. - Everybody made for the levee. It wasn’t a great distance. A full moon rode high in the placid sky spotlighting the raw drama of nature below with a silvery smile that suggesteq cruel mockery. The levee had broken all right and scores of Negro laborers, most of them stripped to the skin, their . finely chiseled bodies glistening in the half-light, carried the bags out into the water to the original boun““daries of the caved-in levee. An + Army officer commanded them. -.Soldiers kept the curious back. Nobody seemed frightened, not <.even concerned. The Negroes chanted a familiar spiritual as they ~ waded back and forth through the : = rushing torrent, now up above their waist line. This was sheer living ¥: drama, unmatched in any book, on any stage. A beleaguered village, a : rescue unit of naked Negroes, a melodious obbligato of chanting voices. : I see all that in retrospect now.

Here it is, not at al] as Westbrook would tell it: It was during the halcyon days of the great George Herman Ruth, the same year he sent 35 home runs over other people’s fences. He was riding the crest of the wave and having a swell time of it. The Babe, however, had not reached that state of affluency where he figured it would be O. K. for him to take the winter off. Anyway, he had to keep in shape. So he hired out for a series of basketball

As he sat down to undress, however, he noticed the condition of his locker. The door hung at a crazy angle. The lock was no more. A thought shot through the Babe's brain . “Gosh!” he exclaimed, “I can’t leave all this dough in that locker.” There was no doubt that the alleged locker was no place for $3000.

Hardin Outscores Local Pinmen With 707 Series
By BERNARD HARMON Carl Hardin today had bolstered his lead over other individuals of the Indianapolis League, his 707, rolled during last night’s session of the loop at the Pritchett Alleys, elevating his average to a few pins short of
the 210 mark. The 700 series, Hardin's second during the current season, climaxed an evening of heavy scoring in the Indianapolis loop in which three teams passed 3000 and 28 inindividuals went over the 600 mark. The threeway tie for second place in the team standings dwindled to a two-team affair, as Marott Shoes and Bowes Seal Fast won two games a nd Falls City HiBrus dropped a/ ‘pair. The Shoemen, although they posted the top team series of the evening, a 3147, failed to click in their opener and lost that game to the opposing Coca Cola. Games of 983, 1018 and 1146 gave the Marott five their big series, every member passing the 600 mark. Paul Stemm had a 648, Carl Mindach 638, Harry Wheeler 628. Oscar Behrens 618 and Ed Stevenson 615. The Cokes nabbed their lone victory through a 1054. Their top scorers were Al Striebeck with 609 and John Goodwin with 608.
Packards in Sweep
Packard Motors in their sweep over Lieber Beer, tossed games of 997, 1072 and 1042 for a 3111. Dad Hanna paced the team with 677, Walt Heckman and John Blue had 624s and Leo Ahearn a 605. Percy Henry's 641 and I'red Schleimer’s 602 were best for the losers, who tacked up a 1009 middle game. In downing Falls City twice, Mar-mon-Herrington eased over the 3000 mark with 14 pins to spare.

Larry Fox's 660 and Ed Striebeck’s 628 provided the Bowes quin--tet with ample pinnage for a double win over L. S. Ayres. A trio of soloists posted 600s for the losers, Jack Hunt having 655, Bill Brunot 638 and Bud Argus 625. Indianapolis Power & Light Co. emerged from its slump and handed Hudepohl Beer a double beating. Ed Cooney paced the winners with a 654. while Ray Fox was best for the losers with a 629. Barbasols took two games from Fendrick’s Restaurants to bolster their top position in the team standings. Don Johnson continued his heavy hitting with a 661 and Jess Pritchett Sr. totaled 617 for the winners while Niel King’s 608 was best for the Fendricks.

that was far out of reach,of Knights of Columbus League rivals in session at the Pennsylvania Alleys. He had games of 233, 205 and 235 that led Pittman-Rice Coal: Co. to a three-game victory over Ninas. The winners posted a 1015 final game. Charley McCahill’s 631 and Oakley's 604 were other ‘honor counts of the evening. The Indiana Recreation League’s gathering at the Indiana Alleys produced a trio of 600 shooters. Clark collected 620 to nab the honors, Herold had a 609 and Pettinger 606. Bill Fulton easily copped solo honors of the Inter-Club League matches at Pritchett’s, his 619 being the lone 600 series of the evening. Universal Indians, J. C. C., Dashes and Exchange Club were triple winners in the team clashes. A 259 middle game netted Charley Kladden a 609 series, that was good for Polk Sanitary Milk Co. honors. In the team matches held at the Pennsylvania Alleys, Nursery Milk and Guernsey Milk turned in shutout victories. In the St. John Evangelical Alleys, Knight closed with a 238 that netted him a 605 and scoring honors of the loop. The four team matches resulted in odd-game decisions for the winners. In feminine circles, Bramell led the scoring of the Indiana Ladies League at the Indiana with 5486, while Reed MaGuire and Mary Clapp tied for the top position of the Eli Lilly women at the Pritchett Alleys with 496.

PUNTA GORDA, Fla. Jan. 28.— Patty Berg, the Minneapolis schoolgirl golfer, clashes with Jane Cothran, Greenville, S. C, today in the semi-finals of the Charlotte Harbor championship. In the second semi-
final match Katherine Hemphill, Columbia, S. C., meets Jean Bauer, Providence, R. I. Miss Berg advanced through the second round by rallying with a string of pars on the home stretch to defeat Helen Detwiler, Washington, 3 and 1. Starting the back nine, Patty shot men’s par for five holes and then took advantage of Miss Detwiler's errors to run out the match. In other second round results, Miss Hemphill, champion of the Carolinas, scored the easiest victory, defeating Carrie Seay, Ft. Myers, Fla., 6 and 5. ‘Miss Bauer barely pulled through with a ‘one-up victory on the 19th ‘hole over Mrs. W. M. Hockenjos, New Jersey champion, while Miss Cothran defeated Mrs. A. L.

Louis, Pastor End Training - F or Ring Go
Joe Overwhelming Favorite In Match; He’s ‘Floored’ By Sparmate.
By LESLIE AVERY United Press Staff Correspondent
- NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—Joe Louis and Bob Pastor finished training today while the ballyhoo Big Berthas
belched a barrage of bunk aimed to pack Madison Square Garden to the rafters tomorrow night. The $100,000 gate predicted for the 10-round battle is not a reality, because the Detroit Negro is such an overwhelming favorite to whip Pastor, New York University graduate. The Broadway betting billies are still quoting 7-1 on Louis with few takers. Pastor’s backers want 10-1. With the public reluctant to invest dollars to see such an unequal struggle, Promoter James Johnston has left nothing undone to build the collegian up as a respectable opponent. Pastor booms forth his confidence of Kkayoing the Brown Bomber daily. An incident yesterday at Louis’ training camp, however, probably will do more to provoke attendance at the bout than all of Pastor's braggadocio. Joe was floored by one of his sparmates, Eddie Malcolm. Whether Louis was knocked down or whether he missed a blow,. lost his balance and slipped was argued loudly. Malcolm sald he did not hit him. Anyway, it was the first time Louis had been on the canvas since he was counted out in the 12th round of his fight with Max Schmeling last summer and Pastor followers made much of it.
