MAX TO WELCOME JOE'S RUSHES

MANAGER POINTS OUT RECORD

EPORTS from the camp of Joe Louis at Pompton Lakes, N. J., suggest that the heavyweight champion will essay to retain his world crown against Max Schmeling at the Yankee Stadium, New York, on June 22 by employing a rushing style somewhat likened to that of Henry Armstrong, the new welterweight king. Louis and his trainer, Jack Blackburn, it is said, gained the idea while watching Armstrong win over Barney Ross that such an offensive will prove the undoing of Schmeling. When informed of the report Joe Jacobs, Schmeling’s manager, said: “I hope that’s true. If Louis tries anything like that he’s apt to find himself being counted out sooner than expected. What has Schmeling done to those guys who tried to rush him off his feet? Take a look at those kayoes on Max's record. Max polished off Walter Neusel and Steve Dudas, to name a couple of the rushing type fighters. ” os os ® o ANAGER JACOBS added: “Don’t forget, too, that the ficht that made Schmeling was his knockout of Johnny Risko, who, certainly, was of the same style. At the present stage of his career, as he has shown during the past year and in training bouts in camp, Schmeling is every bit as good a puncher as at any time before. “That good right hand—and even the left—serves as the defensive against such tactics. Louis ought to know that after being knocked out by Schmeling, and if he doesn’t he’s welcome to rush in and learn by experience.”

n = = ENRY ARMSTRONG, hurricane hammerer that he is, cannot be the murderous hitter his record makes him out. No one will ever try to say that the Barney Ross he pelted last week was the Barney Ross of two or more years ago. That was apparent as early as the fourth round. . Still, Armstrong not only could not knock Barney out, he couldn't even knock him down. But Armstrong is such a busybody that he doesn’t have to be a puncher to win a lot of fights and get a lot of money. . It’s hard for the other fellow to maneuver in a rain of gloves. on ” on » 2 o

Noe COCHRANE is havigg the last laugh. . . . When the Detroit Tigers’ manager included Outfielder Gerald Walker in the six-player deal with the White Sox last winter, the only thing that saved his neck was all the counter-excitement over Harry Kipke's dismissal as Michigan's football coach about the same time. When it looked like Don Ross was going to do a little better than replace Marvin Owen at third base, this crack by a Detroit fan was typical of the fire directed at Cochrane following the December meeting: “What if he does make good?” asked the filbert. “He'll only wind up with Cousin Jimmy Dykes in Chicago.” But Pitcher Vernon Kennedy was the player Cochrane wanted, and he has saved the transaction from a Detroit angle with nine consecutive victories. . . . The Tigers would have gone into a complete nose dive without the Kansan. And Dixie Walker, while his arm lacks the strenghh of Joe DiMaggio’s, is a saner player than Gee Walker, and is matching the Mississippian’s base hits. o ” 2

EATTLE of the Pacific Coast League has a new boy wonder pitcher in Freddie Hutchinson, 18, who has won nine games this season, his first year in professional ball. Jack Lelivelt, a former American Association pastimer, is the voungster’s boss and teayher. Jack Knott, pitcher with the Browns who thinks he can hit, is a “turn” batter and strikes out just as gracefully one way as the other. . The Cubs and Giants are even on the season's play, three victories apiece.

EORGE STAINBACK, shipped to Philadelphia after being sent to the Cardinals in the Dizzy Dean deal, may find himself a regular outfielder for the Phillies. . . . He spoiled a no-hit game for Carl Hubbell this year and recently made two of the finest fielding plays ever seen at Wrigley Field. . One was almost in front of the Cub bench where he spent most of his Tour years in the majors. . . . He'll still work for P. K. Wrigley in the off season. The first time Bill McKechnie, manager of the Reds, saw the improvements made at Wrigley Field during the winter, he insisted, “it's much too nice to play baseball in.” . Some of the Cubs think the St. Louis Cardinals—with Joe Medwick, Johnny Mize, Enos Slaughter and Lon Warneke—are the most under-rated in the National

League.

‘Tarzan Parmelee Wild but Stops Locals in Opening Game of Series.

The stage is set for a rousing ball game at Perry Stadium tonight when the Indians clinch with the Minneapolis Millers in the second of the series. The Redskins lost undisputed possession of first place last night and are deadlocked with the Kansas City Blues who are sharing the leadership in the heated American Association race. The Millers are only two games behind in third position; Toledo, running fourth, is three games back of the Indians and one behind Minneapolis. John Niggeling, the knuckleball artist, is slated to twist 'em up off the Tribe rubber tonight, and it's a safe guess that he'll be opposed by Dick Midkiff, a righthander whom the Miilers obtained from the Boston Red Sox recently. Niggeling has won four games without meeting a setback. Milton Galatzer, veteran fly chaser obtained from Los Angeles, reached Indianapolis late yesterday to join the Hoosier forces and may be inserted into the lineup immediately if he’s in sound physical condition. It will be a ladies’ night attraction at the stadium and the last for some time, since the Indians are to leave on a long road trip after tomorrow night's finale with the Bushmen.

Homer Derby Leader

Ownie Bush's Millers turned on the power in a big way last night and slaughtered the Tribesters, 11 to 3, as Bud Parmelee chalked up his eighth victory of the season. The winners mauled three Tribe hurlers and collected 16 hits, the feature being a home run by Ted Williams with two mates on base in the eighth. The willowy lad from California | really hit that one and lined it over | the right field wall. It was Williams’ 16th round trip-

on his first trip here, he fell an easy victim to Tribe pitching. Williams batted in five of the Millers’ runs last night after striking out on his first appearance at the plate. Harry Taylor, first sacker, also was poison to the Indians with three dhits and four runs scored. In | fact, all of Bush's pastimers got one | or more safeties and Lloyd Johnson | was knocked out of the box in the | fourth inning. He was saved by a double play in the first round, worked out of a deep hole in the second and started skidding in the third.

Buck Fausett also found a safe spot on two occasions. The last play of the fracas was a startling leaping catch by shortstop Roy Pfleger of the Millers who flagged Hinkle’s line drive with one hand for the game-ending out and with the bases loaded. Andy Pilney covered wide acreage in left for the Indians and turned in a couple of sparkling catches, and Harry Taylor's play around first base for Minneapolis also featured.

New York to Oppose French and Bryant.

By GEORGE KIRKSEY (United Press Staff Correspondent)

CHICAGO, June 8.—Determined to increase their lead in the close National League pennant chase, the Cubs were scheduled to tackle their old rivals, the Giants, in a doubleheader at Wrigley Field this afternoon. Harry Gumbert and Carl Hubbell, for the Terrymen, and Larry French and Clay Bryant for the Bruins were listed as starting hurlers. The Cubs got away to a flying start in the series opener yesterday when they defeated the Giants, 4-2. Big Bill Lee pitched his sixth straight victory and yielded only seven hits, two of them homers by Ott and Ripple. It was his seventh

victory of the year. Joe Marty and Billy Herman blasted homers to feature the Cubs’ attack. All those skeptics who said the Cleveland Indians couldn't win on the road are beginning to open their eyes and wonder if Oscar Vitt hasn't performed his old “abba dabba” trick again.

Now Lead by Four Games

Since leaving their wigwam Cleveland has enjoyed one of their most successful Eastern trips in years, winning five out of seven games by fighting to the last ditch under Vitt's dynamic leadership.

They increased their lead to four full games yesterday, coming from behind to down the Red Sox, 7-5. The day before they lost an 11-in-ning game to Washington, 5-4, after scoring three runs in the ninth to send the game into extra inhings. The day before that they tied the score in the ninth and beat the Senators in the tenth, 5-4. The fighting finishes mean that Cleveland isn’t the complacent, self-sat-isfied players who used to hurry to get the game over. With Cleveland clicking on the road the Eastern contenders are slipping farther back. The Yanks, Senators and Red Sox, Cleveland's three principal rivals, all lost yes-

The Yanks are now four

the Red Sox five and a half. Cracks Down on Allen | When Vitt managed the Newark Bears in the International League he used to be famed for his “abba dabba” trick. He'd even come off the coaching lines to show it to a fan. Other times he’d perform it from the field for the press box boys. But if he can keep Cleveland winning on the road his “abba dabba” can be forgotten because anyone who can transform Cleveland into a winner on the road is indeed a “miracle man.” Vitt proved yesterday that he's the boss by leveling down on Johnny | Allen, temperamental pitcher, with a $250 fine for walking off the field | in the second inning before another Cleveland pitcher had had time to warm up. Allen quit the game be- | he refused to change his | sweat shirt, which had a tattered | sleeve on the throwing arm. Man- | | ager Joe Cronin of the Red Sox had complained about it and the umpires upheld him. With the score tied, 5-5, in the ninth Lyn Lary started the winning rally with a single. He scored on |

In the only other National League game Brooklyn defeated the Cardinals, 7-6, for their third straight. Vito Tamulis pitched four innings of hitless relief ball and received credit for the victory. Ernie Koy hit a double and single to drive in two runs.

Terry Got Bargain in Kampouris, Grimm Says

CHICAGO, June 8 (U. P.).—Bill Terry was in a rare mood today thinking of little Alex Kampouris, second baseman, who had to fight for

a job with the Reds

Little Alex stepped into the wobbly Giants’ infield on a day's notice and gave it championship class for the first time since Burgess Whitenead was lost—possibly for the season,

But Terry was thinking of something else. He recalled the stubby human dynamo who lashed out seven home runs in 11 games at the Polo Grounds last year and that Kampy, now on his side, has a lot more than 11 left to play there this season. “His flelding is good, yes,” Terry said, “but the hitting is what will help. We'll need all of it we can get.” Kampouris is a distance hitter and the Polo Grounds is made to order. Despite his size—Alex is 5 feet 8 and weighs 165—he hit 17 home runs and drove in a total of 71 for the Reds last year, although his final average was only .249.

Reached Third Twice

In his debut as a Giant, Kampouris lifted a looping single on his first trip to the plate and twice reached third base as the Giants opened their four-game series with the league-leading Cubs. He handled two fielding chances easily. Terry's sudden swap—oulfielder Wally Berger for Kampouris—almost caused Manager Charlie Grimm of the Cubs to swoon. He questioned everyone in his dugout trying to learn how many players and how much cash Terry had to pay for Kampouris and went off shaking his head when all replied it was a straight trade. That's how important the deal
