The grinning guy is Chick Hatey, greatest comebacker of modern baseball.

Even the docs who looked at his failing eyes two years ago said good-bye. But he's back with the Reds, after a rest on his California farm, doing .300 with his 42-ounce bat, heaviest in the majors. Monster Reception For Budge Is Urged SUNDAY'S RESULTS Ripon 13, Brooklyn 12. Waukau 3, Shippers 1. Rush Lake 9, Omro 4.

Berlin 9, Allenville 1. NEXT SUNDAY'S GAMES Rush Lake at Brooklyn, Shippers at Allenville. Omro at Waukau. Berlin at Ripon. Berlin moved back again into undisputed possession of first place in the Winnebagoland league, Sunday, when it beat Allenville, 9 to 1, while Omro, leading contenders, were humbled by Rush Lake, 9 to 4.

Ripon climbed up into a fie for second place with Omro by beating the Brooklyn team of this city, 13 to 12. The Oshkosh Shippers lost to Waukau 3 to 1. Although the youthful Brooklyn team outhit Ripon, 18 to 8, the breaks were against the local aggregation and permitted Ripon to nose out a one-point victory. The game that started out as though it might have been a pitchers' duel ended in a slugfest with a wind of galelike proportions proving a hazard. Brooklyn started the game with three runs in the first inning.

Schabloski doubled and Kleinschmidt singled. Zimmerman's triple drove in two runs. Ripon scored two runs on a homer by Davis with one on base. BROOKLYN RALLIES Brooklyn rallied in the fifth and drove in five more runs, but they were needed as Ripon had scored six runs in the last half of the fourth. Ebert was unable to pitch effective ball because of the gale.

He issued three walks and two hits in that fourth inning. Beg linger and Wojahn each took turns on the mound and Zimmerman, a speedball pitcher, was also called on and nearly saved the day. Brooklyn scored three runs in the sixth and one more in the seventh on a homer by Schu macher. The final Brooklyn score came in the ninth frame. Four errors were chalked up against each team.

"Plug" Suess, Ripon hurkr, pitched good ball in spite of the 18 hits off him, the most any team has ever secured. The box score follows: BROOKLYN AB Schabloski, .4 III 1 came back and fought the Amen- cans tooth and nail for every point. The American team was not up its usual efficiency today, because Mako was unsure of his stroking through most of his match. The English found his service easy break, and iiis ground strokes wobbly. On the other hand.

Budge was dynamo. Sensing his comrade's unsurcness, the California redhead roamed high and wide over the court, intercepting shots and whaling them back for winners. For the losers Tuckey was the standout. Blessed wtih tremendous power, Tuckey made his overhead smashes a factor from start to finish, and he served viciously.

The battery for the Artists was Martin, Klelov and Kohnke, for the Butchers Kroening and Mugerauer.

A lively California high school boy, Frank Kovacs of Oakland, today held three Badger state open ten nis championships. On his first eastern invasion, the young marauder of the tennis courts took the men's singles title a nip and tuck duel with Don- Leavens of Milwaukee, lifted the junior crown from the head Harrison O'Neill, Milwaukee, in less than 30 minutes, and paired with Leavens to win a doubles title. Their doubles opponents were O'Neill and Milton (Ike) Ruehl. Kovacs was forced to a long, hard match to overcome Leavens, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4. Rain softened courts and a high wind were distracting factors in the match.

Neill was somewhat off his usual game as Kovacs defeated him, 6-0, 6-2. The new champion proceeded from one title match to the next yesterday, apparently without tiring despite the brief rest periods allowed. PUTS SriN ON BALL Leavens and Kovacs teamed well in the doubles match to down O'Neill and Ruehl, 7-5, 6-2. Kovacs reached the peak of his performance when he defeated Ruehl, 1936 men's singles cham pion, in the semilinals. K.ovacs' forehand slicing and backhand chopping imparted a spin to the ball that was difficult for his opponents to overcome.

Sally Dahl and Virgina Watson, Milwaukee, finalists for the women's singles title, were to hold their match late today. Billy Strange of Neenah upset Robert Jake, Milwaukee, favorite in the boys' division, 5-7, 6-0, 6-3. The high light of the match was the excellence of Billy's lobbing. Jake fell and injured his knee in one set. 20 CRIPPLED BOATS FORCED TO HARBOR BY STORM IN RACE Unknown Number Still Struggle Northward on Lake Michigan Against Strong Northwest Wind I.udington, Mich.

Ml An, determined number of sailing vessels', buffeted by high winds which already had chased 20 crippled boats to harbor refugees, struggled northward today in Lake Michigan for a racing prize. The boats, riding out a storm which intruded on the 30th annual Chicago-to-Mackinac race, were unreported at 6 a. (C. but coast guardsmen expressed belief the craft were tacking successfully against a strong northwest wind. Some with broken shrouds and spars, vessels which had abandoned the race found their way to safe anchorages in four ports during the night with the help of the coast guard.

At least one man was reported injured. Coast guardsmen in a motor lifeboat maneuvered most of the night among 10 boats which put in here, directing them to safety. The craft had fled from a 30 to 60-mile-an-hour wind. TAKEN TO HOSPITAL From the Revenge, one man, Frank Combiths of Chicago, was taken to the hospital here after examination by a physician. He was bruised and suffered an injured wrist.

"The boats," said Louis Holstad, bosun's mate, first class, of the station here, "were dragging anchors all over the harbor and v.e had to work with them all night." Holstad said it was "pretty dan gerous out there right now out added that skilled crews need not necessarily be feared for. He said he expected next word of the remaining racers to come from Charlevoix, more than 100 miles north of here, later in the day.

12, 1933 Madison fU.P.i The University of Wisconsin football team will met the University of California at Los Angeles in the Los Angeles Memorial coliseum, Nov. 12, 1938, Athletic Director Harry Stuhl-dreher announced during the weekend. It will be the first trip to the west coast for any Wisconsin football team, and the first game against a Pacific Coast conference team. Stuhldroher said the game was arranged after the University of Chicago asked cancellation of its scheduled 1938 game with the Badgers because of a severe schedule. The Los Angeles Memorial stadium has a capacity of 105,000.

The U. C. L. A. Bruins recently have become one of the football powers of the Pacific Coast conference.

Wisconsin's 1038 schedule has home g.mes with Marquette, Pittsburgh, Indiana and Minnesota and game- away from home with Iowa. Purdue, Northwestern and U. C. L. A.

Next Sunday's Games Oshkosh at Neenah. Grand Chute at Appleton. Menasha at Green Bay. A 4 to 2 victory tor Appleton over Oshkosh in a Northern Valley league game played Sunday afternoon at the Memorial park diamond pulled the local team down a peg in the league standings and allowed Neenah to climb ahead into first place, passing the Cabs tor the first time this season. Manager Johnny Roth's team is now a half-game out of first place, having lost four of its last five games.

The local slump started with a double defeat at the hands of Green Bay, July 4. Since then Appleton and Menasha were able to take the Oshkosh team's number, while the locals were able to defeat only Grand Chute. riaiiv nrartirps are on the schedule for this week in prepara-H tion for next Sunaay game ana in hopes of getting back in the winning path. It will be a "natural" next Sunday, with Oshkosh going to Neenah to battle for first place. The Cabs must win or drop a game and a half behind Neenah.

A win would give tnem me wp position again. PITCHES GOOD GAME Alwin, Oshkosh pitcher, turned In a good game yesterday, having 12 strikeouts to his credit, but costly errors in the second inning accounted for two runs Appleton scored, which lead was rover overcome. Both sides were out in 1-2-3 order in the first inning, but in the second after one Appleton man was out, next batter was safe on an error. Another error and a hit accounted for two runs.

Donald Budge. They should leave nothing undone, but see to it that when the California redhead docks in New York his welcome home combines the best features of the ones tendered the prodigal son, Jenny Lind, Lindbergh, and Queen Marie. There should be fireboats shooting firewater high into the air, tugboats blowing tugboat whistles, and bands playing Grovcr Whalen and Jimmy Walker, wearing silk hats and gardenias, should be there to kiss Donald on both cheeks and present him with scrolls, keys to sail cities large to have Browning socie- ties, and passes to the Roxv. He should not only be given a fatted calf, but a fatted calf all done up in a leather case and complete with knife and fork Donald should then be given a ride, not only up Broadway, but up Sixth avenue and any cross town streets he chose, and made honorary life member in all clubs from the Union league to the Greenpoint Small Neck Clam and Outing.

Such a greeting would serve a double purpose. In the first place, it would honor him for having single-handed won the trophy that is emblematic of all that is holy and fine in tennis, and for accomplishing a feat that was beyond the powers of such players ns Tilden, Wood, Snieids, Lott. Hcnnessy, Allison, Van Ryn, and a locker room full of others. In the second place and this is even more important than the first place business it might so please and flatter J. Donald Budge that he would decide to spurn all offers of professionals, thereby re maining an amateur and in a position to defend the Davis cup.

No one knows any better than the tennis fathers what will hap pen to the cup if Budge deserts the ranks of the simon-purcs. It won't be over here long enough to get over its sea-legs. The first time a challenge rolls 'round and it will be back in its flannel nightshirt, bound for England or Germany, probably the latter. Budge is all this country has. There's r.o use trying to kid ourselves by placing reliance in the likes of Grant and Parker and Riggs and Sabin.

They are very nice boys, but as internationalists they lack the proper credentials. Budge is certain to be tempted and strongly by the professional tennis promoters. He is certain to be shown some very serious money. Sent out on a tour with Vines and Perry, and how the money would roll in! Perry took nearly $100,000 for his end of the six months tour he just completed, and that is not haircut money in anv laneuaee. I am sure that Budge will not have unpacked be fore he receives an offer of better than $75,000 to abandon the amateurs and Join the pay-and-play brigade.

Just what will be the young Californians answer when large bales of the stuff that buys arc offered him? I'm sure I don't know. But if I were he I certainly would let my circumstances fur nish the answer.
