~ TAPPING the baseball hot stoye league for a column... » + « The Cincinnati Reds’ publicity department has figured it out that Lonny Frey, their efficient second sacker, has not received the recognition due him in his nine seasons

in the majors.

J “He_was the best second baseman in the National loop the past season,” said Gabe Paul, the Reds’ demon statistician. . . . Based on the records, Prey had a good year at his position. . . . He was the leading hitter among all of the National league's keystoners. . . , He was tied with Mickey Witek of the Giants for the fewest number of errors, 18. « - - And he had the best average per game in par-

ticipation in double plays.

Those three reasons for placing Frey st the top came out of the official averages, and, if

you want to go further into the situation, you'll

find even more causes. , . . One of them is that he is the fastest runner, and best base runner, among the second basemen, and another is that

he is considered the best man at tagging runners

since Bobby Wallace.

Lonny Frey

That's going a long ways back for a comparison, but old-timers say this is the fact. . . . The ease with which Lonny slaps the ball on the runner and gets himself out of the way is amazing. Consistency of performance is one of the greatest things in the record of a ball player. . . . During a good season, a player can rise to the heights and do some heroic things only to flop the next season. « Any man who is consistently good is a great player. Frey's record for consistency speaks for itself. . . . During the past four years, he has committed only 81 errors, and, strangely, the year 1941, he committed the greatest number of misplays, 24, he led the league’s second basemen.-in the flelding percentages. . . . His

Speedy Miller to Team With Frey

THE NEW shortstop of the Red’s who will team up with Frey this coming year, is Eddie Miller, who set a new league fielding record

for: shortstops in 1942, thus becoming the defensive leader for the

successive season.

Between them, Miller and Frey committed only 31 errors last season, which is exactly the number charged to Martin Marion of the

Cardinals, alone.

Marion is quite a shortstop, and the fact that the combined error totals of Miller and Frey equaled Marion’s is a tribute to the kind of, defense the Reds will have in the middle of the diamond

next season. 8 8 2

Hornets Gain 1-1 Draw in Overtime Tilt.

By FRANK WIDNER The league - leading Pittsburgh Hornets still haven't found the solution for beating Herbie Lewis and his Indianapolis Caps. They had their best chance in the three times the teams have met this season at the Coliseum last ‘night but after an hour of speedy skating plus a 10-minute overtime period the score stood deadlocked at 1-1. The game was the third on consecutive nights for, the Caps. They beat Buffalo Christmas night, 2-1, here; lost to [Cleveland Saturday

‘| night in a road game, 6-4, and then

played their overtime tie with Pittsburgh. Last night’s scrap was fast and furious from the start and both sides were practically exhausted at the end of the regulation playing time. ' Lots of Speed Indianapolis started out with a burst of speed that had them skating rings around the Pittsburgh players. If it hadn't been for a goalie by the name of Harvey Teno, the final result might have been vastly different. Teno was credited with 36 saves during the evening and the Caps had him working hard. The action around the Pittsburgh net was so Tast that Teno was dumped by his own men on more than one occasion. Although the action was plenty

penalty was called and that was against Lorin Mercer of the Hor-

“|nets for tribping, During the two

minutes he was in the penalty box, the Caps swarmed. all over the Pittsburgh goal but Teno repeatedly saved the Hornets from being scored upon. EN : Caps Score First With only five men apiece on the ice at the close ofthe second stanza, the Caps broke through the Pittsburgh defense to draw first blood. Les Douglas, Leo Richard and Hec Kilrea displayed some fancy, speedy skating to set up the score with Douglas finally scoring on a well-timed pass from’ Richard. The time was 19:34. | Vivan Allen and Moose Sherritt watched the score from the penalty box, where they had been sent for roughing. ~The initiative changed hands in the third period, After keeping up their terrific pace at the start of the heat, the Caps bogged down and Pittsburgh knotted the score with a tally by Pep Kelly at 8:33. Plangio and Schultz were credited with assists on the play. Allen Draws Penalty Allen went to -the penalty: box once again for tripping, but the Caps were unable to do anything about it. Teno kept the Hornet goal well covered and the play went into an overtime, Several drives by both teams were turned aside in the extra minutes and near the end of the overtime both sides seemed satisfied with the tie score. Players of both squads appeared dead tired. The decision left Pittsburgh in|3® first place one point ahead of Buffalo, while the Caps held on to third position, five points behind the Hornets and four in back of the Bisons. Cleveland is in last place, two points behind Indianapolis. The Barons can thank Phil Hergesheimer for their victory over the Caps Saturday night. Hergesheimer Gets Hot

Hergesheimer, on (loan from the Chicago Black Hawks, poured in two of three goals the Cleveland team made in the last eight minutes of the game to whip the Caps, 6-4. Indianapolis led at the end of the second stanza, 3-2.

Redskins Still Are Champ: But Record Is Tarnished

By ROBERT S. BARKDOLL United Press Staff Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA, Dec, 28.—The Washington Redskins sti’

as champions of the National Professional Football league t dv,

their record was somewhat tarnished by a 17-14 loss to the lo ¢

Stars in the post-season pro bowl game,

Coach Heartley (Hunk) Anderson, co-pilot of the Chicago * e Lee Artoe, Bears’ tackle, were the happiest men on the squad. 1 X

derived some measure of revenge for the 12-6 defeat their team suffered at the hands of the Redskins in the league’s title playoff. . It was Anderson who coached the professional All-Stars to their triumph over the Redskins yesterday before 18,671 fans at Shibe park and it was Artoe’s artistic toe which provided the winning margin early in the fourth quarter with a 43-yard field goal that sailed squarely between the uprights.

Thrown for Losses At the start of the game, it looked as though the Redskins—playing without Sammy Baugh, who failed to make plane connections from his home at Rotan, Tex.—would have things pretty much their own way as the All-Stars were unable to click

with any combination of players!

The hard-charging Redskins’ line broke through frequently to throw the Stars for losses. Midway in the first period, Harry Hopp -of the Detroit Lions, kicked from his own 11. Ki Aldrich, Washington center, grabbed the ball off the ground on the 40 and raced unmolested for the score, Bob Masterson converted. The other Redskin score game in the third. Roy Zimmerman who made a valiant bid to fill the Baugh’s shoes, filled the air with passes. With the ball on the Stars’ 45, he tossed to Masterson who carried to the 16. Two plays later, Zimmerman passed to Bob Seymour who ran over from the five. Again, Masterson converted.

Stars Get Break

Anderson sent in nine Bears’ players early in the second and although 225-pound Gary Famigliettl repeatedly smashed through the line and Sid Luckman was accurate with his passes, the half ended with Washington stopping the Stars on their own 3.

The stars got their first break in the third when Bill Dudley, Pittsburgh Steelers’ back, snatched Zimmerman’s short pass out of the air

fon his own 3 and raced 97 yards

for. the score. The Stars went to work in earnest after that and with Luckman clicking repeatedly with passes to John Siegal and George Wilson, moved the ball to the Washington 3 from which point John Petty plunged over. The game was tied at 14-14 when Artoe connected for his winning field goal. Although Zimmerman desperately tried to find receivers for his passes, he had little luck. With two minutes to go, Masterson attempted a field goal from the 27 but it was wide and play ended with the Stars in possession on their 25. Receipts, all of which went to the United ' Seamen's Service Fund, were announced at $75,000.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 28- (U. P.

Strickler, league publicity director, was the only league representative formally assigned to Philadelphia for the benefit game for the United. Seamen’s Fund. Layden first indicated he did not consider it necessary to make any statement, but later released the following through Strickler: “I have no comment to make at this time. I have not heard from Baugh; I have been unable to reach him by phone. I have not contacted George Marshall (Redskins owner) and I have not had an opmatter with Ray Flaherty (Redskins coach). I shall make a full investigation.”

Due Dec. 23 2

Baugh, it was learned, was due to. arrive Deg. 23. A plane travel priority had been secured Dec. 18 for Sammy and Mrs, Baugh. It was reported later that Baugh was advised the reservation was made for him, but that he declined it. When Baugh did not appear by Christmas eve Flaherty assumed that Baugh had decided to spend Christmas at home with his family and’ that he would take a plane Christmas night. Philadelphia Eagles officials handled most of the pre-game detail on a voluntary basis, and when Baugh did not appear Saturday morning, Jack Espey, Eagles’ general manager, telephoned the player’'s home. Mrs, Baugh answered and said her husband was out on the ranch. She reached him by phone and he called the Eagles’ office. It was learned that an hour-and-20-minute ' conversation followed, during which: Espey, then Mr. Dorland Doyle, Redskins vice president and then Flaherty took turns in urging Baugh to rush here.

Presence Not Vital !

Versions of the conversation seem to agree on three points. Baugh definitely did not want to play here; he, insisted that his presence was not vital either to the Redskins’ prospects or to the fans’ expectations; he said he had not been feel-

had a touch of grip. He finally agreed to come, it was learned. Harry Thayer, secretarytreasurer of the Eagles, then tried lo arrange last-minute accommoda‘tions. Through the office of Vice Admiral Emory S. Land, a new plane priority was secured out of Dallas. The chief of police at Sweetwater, Tex., promised a police escort to rush Baugh that far, Even officials agreed to hold the plane briefly, because the trip from Sweetwater to Dallas involved 320 miles.

Commission Elmer F. Layden today promised a “full investigation” into the failure of Sammy Baugh, Washington Redskins backfield star, to appear yesterday in the Redskins tilt with the All-Stars at Shibe park. Layden did not arrive in Philadelphia until yesterday, corhplicating last-minute efforts to bring Baugh here. Until Layden’s arrival, George
