by trade.

A notable performance by Baker on behalf of the . Tigers was his scouting of the Chicago Cubs before the ©. World’s Series of 1935. . . . Watching the Cubs in the clos- * ing days of the National race, when nobody knew he was __ in the stands, Baker indexed the strength and weaknesses of hitters, and the habits and mannerisms of the pitchers.

a tough spot. . . . Goslin, prompted by Baker from the third base coaching line, set himself for a fast ball and * drove it over Billy Herman’s head for a clean blow. Cochrane romped home from second and bediam broke

FTER the series finale at Cincinnati today, the Chicago Cubs will begin another vital series at Forbes Field, Pittsburgh, and upon the outcome of the Smoky City games depends the revival of the

Bruins’ hopes in the National League pennant race. . . . The

Windy

City crew showed signs of coming to life by jolting the Reds in the first two tilts at Crosley Field, but the club still is far off last year’s pace in belting the ball to the safe spots. As the Pirates will play a lot of games on the home grounds this month and right through the Labor Day period, they are expected to remain out in front and perhaps add to their league lead.

NW sharing Wrigley Field, Los Angeles, as an unwelcome guest of the Los Angeles Angels, the Hollywood club of the Pacific Coast

League has been notified jt must move out by next season.

. Manager

Red Killefer’s team is in seventh place and last week a story came from San Francisco that the franchise would be moved back there to share

Seals Stadium.

Killefer tossed up the Indianapolis reins after five years and thought he was walking into a juicy assignment at Hollywood only to run

into one bad break after another. . .

. He has even had to cut off

some high priced talent to pare the payroll.

Mon COOPER, former Columbus hurler, is going big with Houston in the Texas League and has turned in seven .shutouts. four in his last seven starts. . . . That Philadelphia at Brooklyn night game which was rained out last night will be played under the lights

on Sept. 7.

Charlie Grimm, deposed manager of the Cubs, says that for the first time in weeks he is sleeping at night, hot weather or cool weather. « +» . His Cub salary still is coming in and for his radio work he gets $100

a broadcast, $700 a week, on a 10-week contract.

. He obtained

waivers on his ‘managerial headache and passed “it on to Gabby

Hartnett.

a Delay

Toughest on Fan, It Seems

Almost Nobody Went but Everyone Was Interested, Joe Finds.

By JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer

NEW YORK, Aug. 11—The fight

that was a heck of a note. Not so much to a couple of prize fighters named Henry Armstrong and Lou Ambers. I'm thinking of the thousands of men and women, some of whom even bought tickets, who didn’t really feel a bit of enthusiasm for this thing; but who felt

cause you just can’t ignore a championship fight. The postponement dropped a heavy hand on them all right. Everywhere last night, in bars, homes and hotels, there was an atmosphere of frustration. Why couldn’t somebody have seen to it that the darn affair got itself out of the way. Definitely it constituted a burden on the nervous systems of these benighted souls. They’ll never get hunk for this bit of meteorological sadism. Maybe I'd better ask my favorite psychiatrist what it might do to their emotional lives. Or shouldn’t that have been brought up?

30 minutes that seemed like 30 years between the time the first trickle of rain came down and the flash of the bout’s postponement arrived. Uncannily it reminded me of a scene I've never witnessed, but one which has been described for me. I mean the waiting of the invited “guests” (is that the word?) in the Sing Sing electrocution chamber before the entrance of the condemned man. Those are sticky minutes, they tell me, while the second hands on your wrist watch freeze and the lights of the room strike into your eyes like a hundred suns. The delay tugs at your twitchy knees. And ‘it is almost with conscious relief that the visitor sees the prisoner escorted through the door.

Gave Em the Jitters

tell me I reached too far for a comparative picture. But I watched an important business executive at a dinner table toy with his filet mignon as he kept sending the waiter to the phone to inquire if the fight was on. I saw an exsports writer, who is comfortably entrenched in the publicity business, sufficiently as not to give a hang what happens in sports, snuff out half-smoked cigarets by the dozen while he waited in a hotel lobby. In the street I heard a girl attempting to wheedle her escort into taking her to the movies while he repeatedly said: “Maybe we can get up there. It's nct off yet.” At the curb alongside of a parked taxi three hackmen stood, one declaiming that “I wouldn't go to that fight on a bet, but, what do you hear? Is it going on?” Superficially very few were keyed

Postponement Likely

To Help Armstrong

NEW YORK, Aug. 11 (U, P.).— The week’s delay.in the lightweight championship fight between Lou Ambers and Henry Armstrong is expected to benefit the little Negro who will go after his third title in Madison Square Garden Wednes-

y. Both fighters returned to their New Jersey training camps today, faced with the problem of maintaining razor-edge condition for seven days. They were ready to go last night at the Polo Grounds, but rain that grew harder by the minute forced Promoter Mike Jacobs to order a postponement. Ambers, lightweight champion, appeared nervous when he weighed in yesterday and his handlers will have a problem bringing him back to peak condition next week. Armstrong, who doesn’t appear to have a nerve in his body, figures from almost every angle to benefit He suffered a cut lip in training and now it has another week to heal; he trains easily and refuses to worry about anything. Fewer than 5000 persons were in the Polo Grounds when the postponement was announced. With another week devoted to buildup, Jacobs may get a better gate indoors than he would have had at the Polo Grounds.

They jammed the bases in the last inning with two out and Harry Kelley, the fourth Senator pitcher, got the jitters. He walked home the winning run. Joe Gordon and Red Rolfe of the Yanks, George Case, Al Simmons and Buddy Lewis of the Nationals hit home runs. Hal Trosky’s ninth-inning homer, good for three runs, led a five run blast that kept Cleveland still five

The Cubs again routed Johnny (No-Hit) Vander Meer, who is finding it harder to pitch nine full innings now than two straight nohitters back in the early days of the campaign. As he lost 6 to 3, Vander Meer did his fifth straight duckout act before the game was over. He allowed eight hits and walked three in losing his seventh of the year.

TAND TONIGHT Opens With Double-Header

Against Milwaukee Brewers; Grief Comes to Del Baker -

Redskins, Handcuffed by Yank Terry, Lose to Louisville, 6-2.

The hard-pressed Indianapolis Indians returned home today for a long home stand and were sched uled to engage the Milwaukee

Brewers in a double-header at Perry Stadium tonight. The first game is scheduled for 7:30 p. m. : The Redskins muifed a chance to gain ground in the Association by dropping a 6-2 encounter to Louisville Colonels in Derby Town last night and were determined to get back into the running during the extended stay at home. : ‘Whitlow Wyatt, shutout king of ‘the Association, was scheduled to hurl the opener against the locals and the prospect seemed none too bright, but there was some glimmer of hope in the news that . Dany Taylor, hard-hitting outfielder, was to return to the Redskin lineup. Danny was obtained on waivers, from the Columbus Red Birds ta | take the place of the injured Myron McCormick. He has been hitting well this year and the Tribe management is confident he will supply that sorely lacking punch in the outfield. Al Epperly and Don French probably will go to the mound for the Redskins in tonight's encounters.

(Toledo Moving Up After Bad Start

By United Press Toledo, considered at the start of the season one of the better base= ball teams in the American Assoe ciation, apparently was moving to« ward a berth in the first division today, although the climb ahead still was a steep one. The Mud Hens, playing a consist ent brand of baseball, combined good pitching and strong hitting to win 13 to 3 from Columbus last night, sweeping the series with their Ohio rivals. Cletus (Boots) Poffenberger, the Toledo pitcher, won his third straight game since being sent to the Hens by Detroit. Claud Line ton and Bennie McCoy hit home runs for the winners. The Minneapolis Millers who move to Toledo today to defend their first division berth, also have been playing at a fast clip. Minneapolis won, 3 to 1, last night from league-leading St. Paul, the second “victory in a row over the Saints. Roy Parmelee pitched his 15th victory of the year, as against eight defeats. George Washburn of Kansas City was the hard luck player of the night. He allowed only. one hit in an abbreviated game, but lost it, 2 to 0, to Milwaukee because of an error, a walk and a single. The . Blues won the first game 12 to 10, with both sides parading pitchers to the mound. Walter Judnich of Kansas City and R. Johnson of Milwaukee hit home runs. Yank Terry, ace of the Louisville pitchers, gave up only five hits and the Colonels defeated Indianapolis, 6 to 2. Terry struck out seven Indians. ’
