HOW WILL baseball fare if world war II runs into ~ another year, two or three years? . .. That is a question that many in the game—and fans, too—continue to wonder ‘about. . . . Perhaps the answer may be found

in the Dominion of Canada.

According to an editorial in this week’s issue of Sporting News the baseball weekly, the Toronto International league Maple Leafs playing a weekday twilight and night double-header recently with the leading Newark Bears, drew a paid attendance of 15,007. Burdened for years with chronic tailenders and second-division teams, Toronto, prior to 1942, had become “a dead ball town. ? ' + .. However, under a new deal for Toronto, with young Lee McPhail in the front office and Burleigh Grimes as manager, the Leafs have developed into a fighting first-division contender. And Toronto, which will have been in the war three years this September and is one of the most royal cities of the British Empire, has responded to the improved play of the Leafs almost the same

- as though times were normal,

Montreal is another good example of how the game fares in a country which has been at war nearly three years. .. . Montreal has had strong clubs during the present war, and the 1941 International league race was between the farm teams of the Yankees and Dodgers, with Newark the winner over Montreal. Many of the Montreal crowds, especially when the two top contenders met, would have been cause for rejoicing to many a harassed

big leaguer.

Indians Enjoy Lafayette Hospitality

A GOOD TIME was had by all before, during and after the . game when the Indianapolis Indians played an exhibition at Lafayette last night and edged the Lafayette Red Sox of the semi-pro

- Indiana-Ohio league, 5 to 4. . . .

Tribe Skipper Gabby Hartnett

: caught four innings and rapped out a double, , . . Gil English collected two doubles and Walter Tauscher one. ! Hartnett put his mound staff on parade and used eight pitchers, - including First Sacker Johnny McCarthy who worked one stanza on the mound. . . . Logan, Reid, Hogsett, Poat, Gill, Tauscher and Rachunok were the regular hurlers who saw service. . . . Jack Davis went the route for Lafayette, giving up nine safeties. . . . The Red Sox also got nine and threatened to win in the ninth, a great play by Bill Skelley checking the hometown rally. . . . Ben Lady, semi-

pro, finished out the Tribe catching.

AFTER THE Lafayette game Tribe Players Blackburn, McCarthy and Bestudik shoved off for Kansas City, Mo., to play with the American association all-stars against the league leading Blues to-

night. . .

. Secretary Al Schlensker accompanied the players.

The Indians’ next regular game will be in St. Paul Saturday

where they start their last swing of

the season through the associa-

tion’s western sector. . , . The Tribesters will be on the road until

Aug. 6.

Looking Ahead to Ice Hockey Season

THE American hockey league's

summer meeting is to be held

Aug. 1 at which time the club owners will announce plans for the 1942-43 season. . . . Despite a scarcity of players it is believed the circuit will operate as usual except for some curtailments. Dick Miller, Indianapolis coliseum general manager, will recommend that the player rosters be cut to 11 and that extra rest periods be permitted to relieve the strain on the men in action. Sandy Ross, well-known member of the Indianapolis team, is in the Methodist hospital. . . . His injured shoulder was operated upon and is on the mend. . . . He wants to be ready 100 per cent

when the new ice season starts.

Kansas City holds the American associa-

tion attendance records for a full season, single day, single week and all-star game. . . . In 1923 the Blues played before a totsl of 430,000 paid with some 60,000 clicking the turnstiles in one week. ... A throng of 18,499 saw the all-star game played there two years

ago.

On Aug. 28 1927, at a Sunday double- header, the Blues performed before 28,973 cash customers.

Hitters Think Passeau Uses Old ‘Spitter’

Gives Boston 2 Hits For 14th Triumph

By PAUL SCHEFFELS United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 23.—Claude Passeau’s 14 victories stamped him as the most effective moundsman in ‘the major leagues today but

there's a psychological angle to the| i=

slim, young right-handed Mississippian’s success the records do not reavel. Baseball outlawed the “spitter” in 1920 but some of Passeau’s success —it’s difficult to tell just how much —many be traced to that very rule, Passeau scarcely pitches a game without at least one squawk to the the umpires that he’s using the spitter. He is completely exonerated every time and the whole affair has developed into a psychological battle on both sides. The hitters trying to rattle Passeau by such charges, and Claude attempts to throw their timing off by making them think he’s throwing something he isn't.

Fashions Two-Hitter

Whatever he’s throwing, this wiry college graduate—he attended Millsaps college in Jackson, Miss.— is one of the top pitchers in baseball this year. He bolstered his claim by fashioning a two-hitter yesterday when the Cubs whipped the Braves, 2-1. ” He lost a shutout when Bill Nicholson dropped Max West's fly in the seventh. Nicholson atoned for this lapse in the ninth’ by blasting a triple off the left field center field wall, scoring Lou Novikoff with the winning run. Novikoff made four of the Bruins’ dozen hits off Al Javery. Passeau retired the first 13 Boston batters in order and also the last seven. He fanned four, issued just one pass—an intentional walk to Ernie Lombardi—and pitched to only 30 batters. West made the only clean hit in the fifth and Tommy Holmes scratched out the other Boston blow in the seventh.

No. 13 Jinx

Kirby Higbe shackled the Reds with five hits as Brooklyn belted Ray Starr and Gene Thompson for 10 blows and a 5-1 triumph. The win was Higbe’s 10th. It was the fourth time Starr had failed to record . win § No. 13. The Cardinals | blasted out a 7~ 0 victory over the Phils. Johnny Beazley Higbe turned in his

ers to 10 scattered hits. The Cards

| sewed up the game when they

tagged Si Johnson for two runs in the second on Walker Cooper's single, Whitey Kurowski’s double and Frank Crespi’s single. Joe DiMaggio’s batting streak was broken at 18 games but the Yankees won over the Indians, 5-1, in the 10th inning for their 11th in a row. DiMaggio failed to get a hit off Al Milnar in three official times at bat.

DiMaggio Stopped He was up five times, drawing one walk and being hit on the other occasion. The Yanks pushed over four in the 10th after.Oscar Grimes fumbled Joe. Gordon’s grounder, potentially the third out. The ‘Athletics overcame a six-ran handicap in two innings and beat the Browns, 11-8, Chet Laabs, Browns’ batting star, started off a five-run rally in the fourth with his 18th homer but the A’s tied the count in the next inning and collected three more hits for three runs to go in front for good. A six-inning double by Luke Appling produced enough runs to give the White Sox a 2-0 triumph over 0ithe Red Sox. Appling’s hit, the only extra base blow of the game, scored two runs and spoiled Charley Wagner's four-hit pitching. Buck Ross allowed Boston five hits. Roy Cullenbine’s fifth = inning homer with one on enabled the Senators to shade the Tigers, 2-1. Sid Hudson held the Tigers to five hits for his fifth victory.

Navy Saves Its Coaches Emberresament By Allowing Officers to Play Football

By DAN DANIEL Times Special Writer NEW YORK, July 23.—From official sources comes the admission, hardly a body blow to our war effort, thaf while the four newly established preflight schools of the navy’s aerial arm have famous football coaches recruited from notable gridiron colleges, and high - powered schedules which include the strongest in the varsity company, they do not yet boast very many top-grade players with rah-rah reputations. As a matter of fact, the cadets in the first classes organized at the schools located at the University of North: Carolina, University of Georgia, University of Iowa and St. Mary’s of California will be graduated from their threemonth course on Sept. 1 and therefore are out of the football picture at these stations. For. the classes which will get organized Sept. 1, and will have to furnish the teams for those tough schedules, Lieut. Comm. Jimmy Crowley, Lieut. Comm. ‘Ray Wolf, Lieut. Col.

Morale—Sisler

ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 23 (U. PJ). —George Sisler, high commissioner of semi-pro baseball, said today that the armed forces and the nation’s industrial plants really took President Roosevelt seriously in making baseball the war’s biggest morale builder. ! “From present indications it looks like 80 per cent or more of the clubs certifying from state tournaments into the national championship event at Wichita, Kas. will represent the army or industries devoted to the war effort,” he said. “The nation-wide series of elimination tournaments now in progress are being backed heavily by -both army camps and industrial teams and some of the. outstanding entrants will be in these categories.” Sisler said that three of the top four teams in the 1941 tournament at Wichita were military or industrial outfits which already had qualified for the 1942 event. A field of 32 teams will enter the najional meet which begins on Aug. 14, The winner will play against the champion Cuban team in a semi-pro world series in Havana beginning Oct. 1.

Tami Battles Red Burman

NEW YORK, July 23 (U. P).—

Tami Mauriello of the Bronx, stiff-punching young Italian heavy= weight, continues operations

~ South Bend’s city champion drove /

against victims of Corp. Joe Louis tonight at Madison Square Garden,

hoping that victory over Red Bure man of Baltimore will bring him a step nearer a September title tilt with Corporal Joe. Burman was kayoed by Louis, just as were Mauriello’s last two opponents—Tommy Musto and Bob Pastor. Mauriello won an easy 10round decision over Musto and held Pastor to a draw in one of the year's major upsets. Promoter Mike Jacobs, resuming boxing operations at the Garden after a two-month lapse, will match the Mauriello-Burman winner with Lee Savold of Des Moines, probably on Aug. 21. The victor of the latter scrap will meet Louis in September, if the army permits Joe to defend his crown.
