Union SPORTS CLASSIFIED WOMAN'S RADIO BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 1932 ersMust Annex 25 ot -Remaining 34GamestoWin0'IoM Bodg As You Like It By Murray Robinson Beck Makes Good Boast He'd Return to Majors MEMPHIS, Aug. 20. Walter William Beck is going back to the majors. The giant right-bander was sold to the Brooklyn club last week.

At the age of 27, and after an absence of four years, Beck1 Is going back for bis third fling In the big ring. His last trial was with the St. Louis Browns tn 1928 and very oddly the club with which he virtually broke Into baseball in 1924. The Browns picked Beck up in 1924 and sent him to Palestine of the Texas Association. He spent the next two seasons with Tulsa in the Western League.

The Browns took him back in 1927, sent him to Milwaukee and brought him back that season. He remained with the St, Louis club throughout 1928, taking part in 16 games and being credited with two victories and charged with three defeats. Beck went to Buffalo in 1929, but stayed there only a short while and finished the season with Chattanooga, winning 12 and losing 11 games for a second-division club. Beck was obtained by Louisville from Chattanooga, but he did not start the 1930 campaign with the Colonels. In a trade that sent Phil Welnert, a left-hander, to the Colonels, the Memphis club secured Beck and Tony Welzer, another right-handed pitcher.

Beck won 1 and lost seven games for the Chicks In Last season, he won 19 and lost 12 and was generally regarded as the best right-hander In the league. The Tribe's Big Train started his sensational pitching this season by losing the first game of the season to Little Bock. He then ran up a string of eight victories before he was stopped, and on Aug. IS had a record of 12 straight. Recent compilation of averages showed Beck leading the league In strike-outs.

With one or two exceptions, Beck's 22 victories have been complete games and three of them extra-inning affairs. Beck uses a sweeping side-arm delivery that has proved equally as effective against left-handed and right-handed hitters. Only on a few occasions this season has the big fellow shown streaks of Before the season started, the giant right-hander, announced that he would pitch himself back Into the majors or pitch his right arm off trying. He has succeeded and instead of pitching his arm -off, he seems to have added some cunning to It i Beck was born in Decatur, 111., on Oct. 16, 1906.

Franchise Changes In View A the current season moves on to its appointed end, it is becoming quite obvious that drastic changes in the makeup of the major leagues will be discussed when the Big Boys get together for their annual confabs next winter. A survey of attendance figures shows plainly that interest in major league baseball is swinging almost entirely to the East. The Western half of the National League, except.

for Chicago, is apathetic. And in the American League, the same holds true except for Cleveland, where the new Municipal Stadium has been packing 'em in above normal. In the National League, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and St. Louis are doing very poorly at the turnstiles. As far as Cincy is con-' cerned, the argument is always advanced that Redland Field busi-! Bess would pick up if the town had a winning club.

I'm not so. sure' about that. It looks to me as though Porktown is nearly through as a big league baseball city. Pittsburgh is almost as I bad. With the Bucg fighting desperately for the pennant, the Smoky Town customers are looking out the window, even on ideal baseball days.

The recent Dodger-Pirate series, "croocial" af-' fair, drew small crowds to Forbes Field. St. Louis didn't even 1 support the Cardinals in the last World Series, and this year the attendance out there has been away below par. Only in Chicago I are the crowds of major league proportions. I Philadelphia is the only really poor baseball city in the Eastern half of the older league.

Brooklyn, Boston, and New Yofk are always I i The American League weak sisters are St. Louis a city which can't support one big league club, let alone two and Chicago. Detroit and Cleveland are only fair; with the novelty of its new stadium mak-1 big the latter town shape up better than it really is. The International League has been forced to switch a franchise I from Beading to Albany. The majors are almost sure to make a change or two themselves next winter.

ff. Sfi 3fc It Looks Easy! DIDRIKSON'S "effrontery" in thinking she can scoot up to the head of the women's golf class after only a few rounds of wrestling with a set of clubs is drawing large gobs of indignation from niblick addicts. They seem to resent the lightness with which the Texas Wonder Girl regards the game. Billie Hicks, women's national links champion, said the other day that Mildred will find that golf isn't so easy as it looks at first glance. Well, probably she will.

The woods is full of fair-tormiddlin' golf rookies who play consistently in the eighties. As Miss Hicks says, the real trouble comes when the rookie with that how-long-has-this-) been-going-on feeling tries to shave his or her game down to the 1 seventies'. -'-j; However, the lanky Texas girl who has spreadeagled the girl track and field world has one famous precedent to which she can point with some degree of elation when she talks of competing for Miss Hicks' crown after only a few months of golf experience. And that precedent is the case of Mary K. Browne, women's national tennis champion who, at an advanced age, took up golf as an afterthought and almost at once crashed the national links spotlight! Miss Browne's feat was even more remarkable than that of Babe's would be if the latter were to go far in the coming women's golf i national, for the Texas Girl Wonder is very young and therefore more adaptable to her new sport.

World Series Chatter TjWERY fall the leaves fall and when the leaves fall it is world series time. In two major league baseball icenters the air is alive with electric tension. The whole affair is big stuff, magnificent stuff. Say, you Dodger fans who block traffic talking of your soaring 1932 Flock, do y' remember what it's like Or to be less sentimental and more explicit, do you recall the circumstances under which the Brooklyn Baseball Club played the Cleveland Baseball Club for the championship of the world in 1920, the last year Brooklyn won the pennant? Honest, it seems like asking who remembers the day the first horseless carriage trundled down Bedford Ave-. nue or who saw Grant' take Richmond (Boy, could he take it!) But it isn't really wreathed with antiquity.

To a lot of guys it's just yesterday waiting around to be born again. You don't suppose they've forgotten the tense series days at Ebbets Field when the bleachers weren't ashamed to go undressed and the tenser days of watching the telegraph wires from Cleveland? How about the first game in 1920 when Stan Cove-leskie, the Punishing Pole, trimmed Rube Marquard of the Dodgers? Or the second when a delighted Brooklyn audience watch the selfsame Burleigh Grimes who now toils for the Cubs shut out Jim Bagby? Or the palpitating third game in which Sherry (sure, you remember snap-'em-off-first Sherry) Smith outpitched Caldwell, to give Brooklyn a 2-1 lead Two days later they resumed in Cleveland and you'll recall the agonizing tidings of another Covejeskie victory, this one over Caddy Cadore, the darling of Uncle Eohby's eye who had pitched the record-setting twenty-six-inning game with the Braves. And the next day? with the stunning individual triple play pulled by Bill Wambsganss, Indians' second baseman, and the resultant defeat of Grimes at the hands of Bagby. None of the boys can forget the heart breaking defeat the wild but speedy Duster Mails pinned on Smith the next day. And it still hurts to think of Coveleskie shutting out Grimes in the final game for his third series victory over the Dodgers.

They were real thrills. Like beer and prosperity they're coming; back only if Marse Carey's boys keep up their present pace they'll beat those other two into town. Twenty-two victories in twenty-eight games! A jump from seventh to second in less than a month! That sounds like pennant music, 'Strike up a few bars, professor, and well make it Brook-s lynVanthem! i O'Callaghan and the Eats Xos Angeles is taking apart its portable Olympic village and the international games have been put to rest for another four years but there's one more little Olympic sidelight that deserve" telling. It concern? Dr. Pat O'Callaghan, the smflin' Irish giant, who beat the hammer throwers of the world at Los Angeles, and B.

H. Tisdal, rangy Irish hurdler who won the 400-meter championship. Both sailed for home last night on the Majestic, but five minutes before sailing time ey were nowhere to be seen. Fifty minutes before sailing time, forty, thirty, twenty, ten and finally five minutes before the deadline and they still hadn't appeared. Three minutes before the gangplank was hoisted they sprinted down the dock and raced aboard.

"Where you been?" someone popped at Dr. O'Callaghan. "Just packin' away a little food," the imperturbable O'Callaghan replied. "We hadn't noticed the time." ss.V SOT' uJtMMkHA Chambio A5.W03WMM.Odi SfAMO Ai 006 Of Vi By WILLIAM McCVLLOUQR Btaff Correspondent Times Union Cincinnati, Aug. 20.

Right now, Mr. Francis Joseph O'Doul has two ambitions. The one uppermost in his thoughts is to help bat the Dodgers into the next World Series. The other is to capture the National League batting championship. He's quite confident of realizing the latter, but his chief concern is to sweep the Cub series which begins next Wednesday at Wrigley Field.

The Dodgers' noted hitter predicted all along that the Cubs were the team to beat for the championship this year. Even when the Pirates uncovered their sensational spurt, Lefty still told the boys to keep their ''eyes on those Bruins, stressing the fact that Hornsby had collected one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. "We're the best club in the league right now and we have been for the last three weeks," declared O'Doul this morning. "If we were even with the Cubs, I would predict a pennant for Brooklyn. But our club was far in arrears when we started our climb toward the top and despite the excellent drive we made, we're still on the.

losing side of the ledger. "Our disadvantage Is in the loss column. We have lost more games than the leaders. These must be made up and it can only be done by whipping the Cubs. We can't expect help from the other clubs.

That was conclusively proved in the first three games of the recent Cub-Braves series when one run would have turned the tide tn Mc-Kechnle's favor. "Yet you saw what happened. Despite the Cubs' anemic attack, those Chicago pitchers outdid themselves, carrying on to win with a single run. That's what wins pennants, good pitching, and if a club is fortunate enough to have a sustained attack in addition then it's a breeze. Much Depends on Hack "Offensively Brooklyn has the strongest unit in the league and for that reason I'm confident that we'll surprise the league leaders next week.

Our pitchers are coming along nicely and any kind of work from them in these crucial games might sweep the three-game series. "A great deal depends on Hack Wilson, too. Thus far, the Hacker has been unfortunate at Wrigley Field. Try as he did, he wasn't successful againBt his old mates. He tried too hard, which naturally hindered his work.

He wasn't loose enough at the plate to hammer out a long ball. "Yet, iafcelleve Wilson, who has helped us in no small way, will regain his batting eye whenwe go to Chicago for the last time. Primarily the law of averages is in his favor and secondly, his timing of swings has been Improving all along. The first time we played at Wrigley Field, Hack was nursing a sore knee and last month he fell into a slump. If he hits at his proper gait we'll surely overpower their great pitching." Dodgers Must Travel Fast "How many games must Brooklyn win to finish on top?" O'Doul "Well, I should say 26 in our next 84.

That's a terrific pace to travel, but we've done Just as well since July 26, when we started on our great run. We can't afford to have a single let down. The boys have got to bear down every Inning in (Continued on Following Pope) 4P FOXXANDO'DOU Miss Browne was national tennis champion in 1913 and 1914, and runner-up1 in 1921 and 1924. Realizing that the racket game was getting too strenuous for her, Miss Browne turned to golf, and in 1924 the same year in which she was beaten for the net crown by Helen she was runner-up to Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd for the national golf championship Like Miss Browne, Babe Didrikson will find, when she competes in golf tournaments, that, to an individual used to matching skill, stamina, and wits against human adversaries, the most disconcerting thing about golf is that you have only dat ol' dabbil Par to buck up against.

The newcomer to links competition discovers that it is more of a nervous strain to play against that intangible, yet powerful foe, than to fight another mortal who is apt to make as many mistakes as you do.

Official averages released today and Including games ot Thursday, show Fox in first place In the Americna League with an average of .357, while O'Doul is the leading batsman In the senior circuit with a percentage of .386. Johnny Allen, of New York, has the best pitching record in the American League, with 11 victories sgainst two defeats, but his teammate, Lefty Gomez, has registered the most victories, 20.

Primarily is the Giant victory, of course. Secondly It shows Hubbell's 14th win of the season. Thirdly it proves that lefthanders are the Pirates' most feared Jinx. Then there is recorded three errors for Vaughan, three hits for Terry, losing pitcher, Meine. But perhaps It would be better to elucidate on the foregoing.

The Giants are, this morning, only three and a half games away from the fourth place Phillies, whose position the Terrymen are most eager to possess. They also are very desirous of knocking off the Pirates, thus gaining some revenge for their earlier humiliations at the Walker has been sitting on the bench, only occasionally getting into the game as a pinch hitter. The critics consider that in using this method of punishment, Harris is injuring the team more tnan anything else, for Walker was hit ting in the neighborhood oi .840. outs, 164 to 154. But this slim advantage means nothing to the Senor, who can obliterate it with one good day.

The only trouble, of course, is that Ruffing will mount the count every time he works. Yesterday, against the Tigers, Lefty gained four strikeouts on the leader and he Intends closing the gap before the Tanks go away. Both are aiming to finish the season with at least 200 strikeouts Jo theff credit, which is not doing badly at all. Rube Waddell's modern record ot 343, made in 1904, Is safe however. Gomez rules a favorite to take the honors.

He started off the season like wildfire, running his total up to 100 In no time. Then he dropped somewhat and meanwhile, Red kept plugging along, and soon caught up and passed him and the Yanks last road trip. His seven strikeouts yesterday attests to the fact that Lefty la again on the warpath. It's Just as well that the Yankees winning streak was broken. Had It mounted up to 15 or thereabouts, the players would have become keyed up to the situation) and a defeat then possibly would have been detrimental to their equilibrium.

Streaks of any kind are bad things, for they invariably make the con They think that if Harris had fined him and kept him in tne lineup, Bucs' hands. Winning this first he would not only have punished Walker, but not weakened his club.

Except when they ran against each other in the Belmont Stakes, Gusto has demonstrated than he has Pardee's number. Even the eleven pounds he is spotting the latter today shouldn't stop him.

"that Mickey Walker has been signed for a bout with Herr Schmeling. i This, I think, is very unfair.

What I want to get at is this: How is Walker getting the bout when Johnny Risko gave him a bad slamming recently in Cleveland in a twelve-round bout? I think the. Rubber 'Man should get the preference even if Herr Schmeling did beat him i once. And again, I think a Jout between Johnny and Max would be a much better fight and a better drawing card. What say you?" I've expressed the opinion many times that Walker doesn't belong in "the ring with a first-class heavyweight. His record proves it.

Stijl, the Jersey roly-poly is more of an attraction at the gate than much better fighters. You don't have to be a mind-reader to understand why Schmeling is taking Mickey next. Walker will be a cinch for him, and they should draw a big house. Risko, on the other hand, would probably give Max a pretty rough evening even now, and a return match between them wouldn't draw pretzels. Kapeesh?

Carl, besides allowing alt these hits, which Included a triple and two doubles, walked two, hit one, and tossed in a wild pitch. Scoring only four runs on all this must be accredited to a jinx, for it seems almost impossible not to score more. Meine and Vaughan Collapse Floyd Vaughan's three erors, and the fact that Pitcher Meine was knocked but of the box in the first inning are two more reasons why the Pirates are now In third place, two and half games behind the leaders after having enjoyed a mere few weeks ago, a six-game lead on the field. When the PlrateB beat the Giants six out of seven at the Polo Grounds recently, one of the main reasons for the Buc victories was the inspired play of their keystone combination, Vaughan and Piet, The pressure simply became a little too severe for these rookies. The Pirates' pitching staff, which Improved so greatly In May when Meine came into the fold, has gone to pieces Just as Meine, the keystone man, has flopped.

Perhaps those Pirates will take a new lease on things soon. They cannot be called out yet, but they are pretty far down. Terry After Batting Title Those three hits for Terry keep him well over the .600 mark for past 16 games. When the Dodgers went over to the Polo Grounds, Terry said to Ifty O'Doul, the batting leader: "Watch out, I may be right behind you soon." O'Doul laughed at the time, but now he Is looking at the aver ages dally. Memphis Bill was serious and hla rise from .306 to .838 inside of a couple of weeks Is mute testimony to his sincerity.
