Baseball has had its Wid Matthews, boxing its Floyd Johnson and other sport's stars who have shone brilliantly for a saascn and then faded into near insignificance. But no case is stranger than that of Oscar Whitehead, who in 1926, was generally acknowledged as one of St.

Louis' three best bowlers. As a "mcney" bowler, that is, one who is at his best when there is money or a prize at stake, "he was doubtlessly the city's greatest. He won tournament after tournament and led the Major City League in high average. Then something happened what, no one, not even Whitehead himself, knows. From the best, he dropped down among the ordinary ten pin topplers.

Try as he might, Whitehead could not reach the form that was once his. The old confidenec was gone, and the No. 10 pin stood when it had never stood before. The long row of strikes that always featured his score-card was replaced by spares and misses. But those veterans of the game who knew Whitehead f.t his best refused to believe that he was through and that when another season rolled around he would be up there fighting for the leadership in high average.

The season this season-did rcll around. The name of Whitehead was still potent in bowling. Many teams sought his services, among them the Flints, one of the strongest in the city. He RACE ENTRIES xRoycrofter, 111; xRegulatlon, 111; xSanc- NATIONAL LEAGUE. Cardinals Bill McKechnie Giants John J.

It wasn't n. score that Whitehead would have bowled in 1926, not one that he would have bowled in 1927 it was one below 500, the first of that figure for him. Veteran heads begarj to shake. It was not -understand able. The climax was reached Monday; night.

Bowling with the Flints against the Cromwells, he shot a mere 150 in his first game. Tha was too much for Whitehead and he withdrew then and there, leaving a substitute to carry on for the other two games. Will Whitehead come back? His legion of friends in the bowling pastime hopes he will and again lend his colorful personality to the greatness of the pastime. A men's and a women's handles rJ tournament will be held at the Washington Alleys Saturday night, starting at 6 p. m.

M. Templemeier of the Business Men's League and Mrs. Myrtle Schulte of the Women's Major City were the winners lasH Saturday. Frank Foss and Roy Nelson are leading the Greater St Louis Two- Man League, not only in games won and lost, but also in high average. They each have an average of 204, which is unusual for a league of this type- George Hager, one of tha city's best southpaw bowlers, and Harry Deen, shot 1,217 last week, Hager leading with a 631 score.

Henry Chicago Cubs. ORT Couldn't Make His Team. UCKY HARRIS, assuming the management of the Detroit Tigers, announced that he would direct the team from the bench and that he would get into action only occasionally as a substitute. It was generally thought that the Detroit owner was after a playing manager when he opened negotiations with Harris, but Harris had no intention of doing a two-part Job. Late in the season when it became known that Harris was going to Detroit he was asked If he expected to play second base.

"I don't expect to play regularly," he said. "I don't believe I am good enough to take the Job away from Charley Gehringer. I think he is one of the best infielders in baseball. Nominations Now in Order. OHIO STATE may not realize its ambition to beat Princeton and win the Western Conference championship, but the Columbus university may succeed in getting two men on some All-America teams.

If there Is a better center in the country than Barratt, a 236-pound sophomore, he deserves to be rated the greatest center since Bill Cunningham. Barratt is unusually fast for his great bulk and he is of the same aggressive hustling type as Cunningham and Adam Walsh, who starred with Notre Dame a few years ago and who played through the greater part of a game against the Army with two broken hands. Leo Raskowski. the Ohio tackle, made several Ail-American teams last year and he is playing the same kind of a brilliant game this year. They are perhaps as great a pair of linemen as can be found on any team in the country.

Bill Roper says he's glad Virginia held Princeton to a tie. Just about Jubilant as the bleacher fans in Et Louis when Babe put that third strike-out into Grand boulevard in the well-known fourth game. MADISON ENTRIES TONIGHT'S Hf LECTlOXS. Meadnws, Ilaky Hawke, Des- ptrate Ohnct. S.

Eight of the aristocratic members of the canine racing world, repre senting the highest class distance greyhounds competing on the Amer lean tracks, will start tonight in the fourth Madison derby at the Madison Kennel Club on Illinois State Highway No. 11, five miles northeast of East St.

Louis. The race will be run over the seven-sixteenths of a mile distance, and pre-race prices quoted on the blue-ribbon event range from 3 to 2 on Hawk's Gold, the favorite, to 25 to 1 on Stanhope Still, the extreme "dark dog" of the race. If Hawk's Gold wins tonight, he will set a precedent, for he will be the only winner of a previous hound derby to repeat. Sonny Concern won the first Madison derby on the night of July 22, 1926. The second Madison derby went to Wasteful Girl on the night of No vember 13, 1926.

Robin's River won the third derby on August 15, 1927, and. Hawk's Gold won the classic July 3, last. Stanhope Still has been awarded the post of -honor, the No. 1 box, and will wear the red blanket. Actor Boy will break from the outside, No.

Flossie Mac and Hawk's Gold won the semi-final races, which were run over tha three-eighths of a mile distance last week. FIRPO BEGINS TRAINING FOR RETURN TO RING BUENOS AIRES, Oct. 25. (By U.

At least three National managers are slated for dismissal dur To Change League. Moriarty, it appears almost certain, will be seen In the National League next season. If not as a manager, surely as an umpire, a Job at which he was considerably more successful In the Americon League than as leader of the tooth less Tigers. In his two-year regime at Detroit, Moriarty piloted the Ti gers to fourth place is 1327, and sixth place in 1928. There Is a lot to be said In McKechnie's defense over the showing of the Cardinals in the World Se ries, but not much to be said for the Cardinals themselves outside of little Billy Sherdel.

Frank Snyder, who led the Hous ton Texas League club to a pennant in that league and then to the Dixie championship over Birmingham, and Billy Southworth, manager of the Rochester Red Wings, have been mentioned for McKechnie's place. Both the Houston and Rochester clubs are owned by the Cardinals. Uncle Wilbert Robinson, president and manager of the Brooklyn Robins, is ready to relinquish his post as manager of the team and continue as president, and will recom mend such a change to Brooklyn board at the next meeting. Max Carey, captain of the Robins. who sat on the bench most of last season, is Robbie's choice as his successor and will probably get the job.

New managers may be seen at the helm of the Chicago White Sox and Cleveland Indians next season. Lena Blackbume, Ray Schalk's successor during the past season, may not be given another chance because of the White Sox failure to defeat the Cubs in the Chicago city series. Charles Comiskey was pleased with Black- burne's work during the time he was at the helm of the club late in the regular season, but It is said to have turned against Blackbume because of his handling of the White box in the city series. Roger Peckinpaugh may or may not manage the Indians next season. If the club owners can find a suitable manager.

Peckinpaugh probably will be relieved, although no one could be expected to do much better than Peckinpaugh did with the players he had at his disposal Even overlooking the New v0rk I Yankees' four straight games, world series victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Eill McKechnie probably is through as manager of the Cardinals, principally because the Scot himself is tired of the many strenuous campaigns he has been through during the last four seasons with the Pirates as well as the Cards. Eoston Situation. The status of the entire Boston Braves' ball club Is in doubt.

The officials want to sell Hornsby to recoup some of their losses, but don't want to act until after election Is over and they do not know whether Sunday baseball will be allowed in Boston next season. If Sunday baseball is defeated. Hornsby, it is said, will cost the Cubs a pretty penny.
