HEMSLEY SAYS ROLLICKING DAYS OVER OUO OUTfh Cleveland's Ace Catcher Quiets Down TEXAS A Real Feat When Bob Feller walked off the pitching mound at Chicago Tuesday 0 after hurling a no-hit game against the White Sox. it caused the fellows who take their records seriously, to start digging into the books to see whether the Cleveland ace had turned in such a feat in an opening day tilt. It seems that this was discovered in the early search: Back in 1900. April 19. to be exact.

Morris I. Amole came up with a hitter while pitching for Buffalo and against Detroit. At that time the American League had not risen to major league proportions. The league at that time could be compared to the International League today. On April 15.

1909. Leon K. Ames. Brooklyn hurler did not allow the New York Giants a hit or run for nine innings in a National League opener. Later he gave uo seven hits and lost.

3 to 0, in the 1.3th inning. The above was reported late Wednesday and as this is being written. the diggers may have found other fimilar mound performances. It will probably make little difference what is discovered in the way of previous opening day pitching records, what young Bob Feller did at Chicago Wednesday will sat- all baseball fans as being with them. And why not? RFBELS gPORTS 7 SHREVEPORT- -in a long contest, that lasted two hours and 35 minutes, the Dallas Rebels defeated the Shreveport Sports 9 to 7 here Wednesday in the first a Mrs.

But Thais over now I simply decided have to quit to stay in the majors. No more of those old days for me." Maqager Oscar Vitt is convinced that Rollie means it. He feels so good about this reformation he even went so far as to admit that Mrs. Hemsle.v no longer travels regularly with the club. About a year ago.

Oscar said, Mrs. Hcmsley was paid a salary, plus expenses, just to wait at the dressing room door each afternoon, capture "Rollicking Rollie" as he came out and If 40 14 Shreveport AB 2b Vitrer ri 4 fl York ss Gr nberg 3h 3 3 Efloterlng rf 3 i il 1 lb SA Frier 40 Rrillheart 1 fl Navie fl A Lopet I A Anturp 1 fl Reid 0 Thursday, April 18, 1940 Page 37 7 10 Betted for Nflsie In 400 loo A Shreveport mn 231 000 7 Errors: Levey 2.

There never was any argument, and today, after opening no-hitter, to take any oiher view would be denying that two and two make four. Uncle Oz has the Joe Louis of baseball right in his hand, and many a club will face him with all the confidence of a Paycheck. The batters have much chance against Feller now. but they would have more chance if hoard of him and were told they were facmg another guy named Gus.

Psychology plays odd tricks, and psychologically Feller couldn have got away to a better start than he did. Early in his career Robert was wilder than an Armistice, and a batsman wasnT sure whether just be out or out cold Patient practice, willingness to listen to advice, and determma- tion have away the major fault.

He has acquired the surance and polish mo.vt major league ball players acquire from stopping at the best place.s and mingling with worldly citizens.
