MINNEAPOLIS STAK 15 Now It's Tandem Shutout; Dill Sets Record i To Investigate 'Spitter' Charge I Two Aqua Tennis 61 CHICAGO President Will llarrtdge of tlir American league today placed pitcher Nelson Potter of tlie league leading St. Louis Browns under suspension pending receipt of a report frnn I'mpire C'al Hubbard on I'otter'it alleged ute of a spit hall. NEW YORK t.T) Shades of 1920 descended on the current American league pennant rare today as the old "spit ball" argument was dragged Into the first place I IJ Butzie Lehrman Hopes to Sign Up By IIAI.SEY HALL There always seems to bo something in the wind out Nicollet baseball way.

It's either a feast or a famine and a record is likely to hit you on the knob any time. on (HARGES such ss were made by a West Springfield, draft board that "higher ups" in the selective service authority have boon responsible for delaying the Induction nf Pitcher Early Wynn of Washington do not du baseball any good. Athletes who are not in uniform always arc under suspicion of spectators who may have sons, daughters or relatives at the firing line or at least in uniform. It's an unfiur attitude for sports lovers to take when they don't know the facts in the ca.e for usually any athlete who participate for a living ha hern deferred or disqualified legally for legitimate reasons. But when a draft board hints that powers bejond them are delaying induction of any physically fit eligible it hurts every one participating in sports.

As the West Springfield hoard puts it. Pitcher Wynn originally was scheduled to go into the service in May. hut was granted a respite until July 19 because of the illness of his mother. Since then, the pitcher's papers have been transferred to Washington with that board postponing action until Aug. 6 on the grounds that its draft quota was filled until then.

Because Washington Is the headquarters for juggling of all tjpe, the blast out of the West Springfield board leaves the Impression, rightly or wrongly, that some fixing is being done behind the scenes. This could easily develop into a national scandal with baseball the sufferer. We have heard of no club magnate or official asking any favor for his athletes up to now. All of them have taken these things as they rame and made the best of it. k'fcy 1 -ccx For instance the Millers were beaten lat night by Milwaukee, 10-0, a very hearty score, especially when it is achieved by two pitchers.

The first tandem shutout of the 1 ear was written into the books by Charley Sproull and Don Hen-' drickson, whose complete lack of! mercy was rather appalling. Char-' ley stopped a vicious smash by Babe Barna with such force that the ball nearly rolled over the taut base line on the rebound i i '-iWnen nis nana nuinoeu up, v.us-y Stengel took him out. Since you can't improve on a scoreless performance, Mr. Hen-drlckson equalled par for the mound course over the final five innings.
