THE Chicago Cubs’ summer baseball training camp, which had its inception at Wrigley Field on June 17, is now in full swing with a class of 35 of Chicagoland's outstanding youngsters, between the ages of 17 and 20. The school will close on Sept. 1. . . . Classroom, lockers and showers are provided for the boys at the Cubs’ park. Wally Roettiger,
former St. Louis Cardinal star, is head coach and hk chief assistant is Jack Sheehan, former baseball manager and at present supervisor for Chicago's park districts. The training camp has no official connection with professional baseball, The bovs are not signed to any form of contract, However, the youngsters are given a nominal amount of expense money while they are in training. The first few weeks of the school were devoted to looking over more than 400 promising voungsters and from this group were selected 35 boys who are being put through a rigid and comprehensive baseball training. ranging from classroom work to intra-camp games ‘We've got some great looking bovs in the school,” says Coach Roettger, “and I think a great many of these youngsters have a fine chance for a major league career
Couple of Umps Irk Tiger Scribe
DETROIT is feuding with Umpires Eddie Rommel and George Moriarts Writing in the Detroit Free Press. Charles Ward put it this way The White Sox were given considerable help in the first half of Sunday's double-header at Chicago . by the umpires who awarded two runs to the Chicagoans . One was the gift of Umpire Rommel, who ordered Larry Rosenthal home from third in the fourth inning after Jimmy Dvkes, White Sox manager, had complained that Shortstop Dick Bartell had tripped Rosenthal as Rosenthal was going from first to third on a single bv Mike Tresh. “Umpire Moriarty was the donor of the other run. He waved Joe Kuhel home after the White Sox first baseman had lined to the right field pavilion wall in the seventh. “Moriarty ruled that Kuhel hit a homer even though the ball bounded back onto the playing field, contending that a Detroit Fifth Columnist in the pavilion had batted it back again.”

CLEVELAND comes up with a couple of cracks at Umpire Bill Grieve. Gordon Cobbledick, Cleveland Plain Dealer, found fault with Grieve's work in Sunday's twin bill at St. Louis. Like this: “One of the rarest of baseball decisions was Grieve's ruiing that Roy Weatherly was out in the third inning of the second game because Beau Bell interferred with Shortstop Johnny Berardino's double-play throw after a forceout at second. Without the interference there would have heen no chance to double Weatherly “When Rollie Hemsley bunted foul on the third strike in Sunday's Wrst game and went. as a matter of course, to the dugout, Umpire Grieve loudly called him back, bellowing the information that it was a foul hall. The crowd reminded him of his boner throughout the rest of the afternoon.”
Hank First to Bat in 100 Runs
WHEN Hank Greenberg hit his 23rd home run of the season with Barney McCosky on base in the Tigers’ second game with the White Sox at Chicago Sunday he became the first player in the major leagues to hit the 100 mark in runs batted in for 1940 Greenberg is well out in front in that department and made it 101 at Cleveland vesterdax The big Bengal has been a powerplus sticker for years and is showing no signs of losing his grip in the clutch. ” ” ” » » » M'KECHNIE'S birthday is a jinx day for him ‘on the a - The Reds lost on his 53rd birthday, Aug. 7. to the Cubs, 5t03 “This makes it about ten in a row my clubs have lost on my birthday,” said the Cincy pilot after the game. Contrary to popular knowledge, Bucky Walters got his first pitching experience in 1929 with High Point in the Piedmont League, . He pitched 80 innings, losing six contests and winning five. Over an eight-vear period in the majors, Billy Werber, third sacker, has averaged 29 stolen bases a year.
