THe HOME ISewipajper, THE LINCOLN EVENING JOURNAL, MONDAY, JULY 6, THIRTEEN 3 Post Walter TrumbuU MMCOUI JOMMM. CtMU Brooklyn Gains In Pennant Race With 4-3 Victory Over Giants In considering Willie Stribllng, of Georgia, we have for years been working under a false premise. The one thing we forgot Is the saying which always runs so true: riasB ia that indefinable quality which needs no alibi. Becauae Young Strlbling was a handsome, attractive, likable boy, we have for years tried to make him something he was not. We have blamed him for what was not his fault.

Every time he made a poor showing against first class opposition, we have found excuses for him. We have said that he was potentially a champion; that he lacked only the fighting spirit; that he the vital spark. But w'e always claimed that he was improving; that he would some day cut loose and do his stuff. We certainly made it tough for him. It Young Stiibling we were defending; it waa our own judgment.

Finally, a lot of persons began to say that it was a matter of courage. When you pointed out to them that the timid souls take airplanes up and do stunts with them, or do a lot of other things, they replied that there were many kinds of courage and that Strlbling have ring courage. They were wrong again Never Great Fighter. Now some of us are beginning to believe that Strlbling had tremendous ring courage; for he must have known in his heart what is now plain to most of us: that he is not and never waa a great fighter. Time after time, he must have climbed thru the ropes to meet men he knew were his physical superiors with the gloves, and yet with the knowledge that his followers thought him invincible, if he cared to do his best.

Small wonder that his nerves were not always good and that he grew weary carrying that load. "Stribllng was tired before the bell rang for the first round. Gene Tunney said to me, on the trip back from Cleveland. bet he slept much for three nights. You could tell the shape his nerves were in by the way he snatched at the rubber mouth piece, when they gave It to him.

So don't let us make any excuses for Stribllng this time. And don let us blame him for our own lack of judgment. He lost, because Max Schmellng was stronger, a harder hitter, tougher, and an all around better man. We had supposed that Stribllng would find wide open and could cut him to bits, or knock him out. Well.

-he do thwie things for the that he He hit Max cleanly enough in the early rounds, but Schmeling only pressed in, stout and dangerous. It must have seemed to Strlbling rather like trying to roll a big log up hill. T'he pressure was always on him, and every time he stopped to rest, he was in danger of being run mm FOR 181 BELIEVE IT OR NOT! U. 8. Patent Office.) By Ripley Early Season Fears of Weaknesses Seem Premature.

HERO VeeterSay't heroi Pet who pltrhed and hatiM Ihr (hlrago to a to 1 vletonr vufT the St. I.OOI« IlmiteS the leacac to eeven and the winning ran after he bad doabled la the tenth Inning. Of being over and crushed, Loughran Comments. "I theught Schmeling fougM about hUi usual fight," Tommy Loughran said after the fight, "the difference between this and his Sharkey fight waa the difference between Sharkey and Stribllng. Max naturally looked better against a weaker opponent.

But -he is a tough, strong fellow, with a world of heart." Stribllng showed courage enough against Schmeling. even if it was of the passive resignation. It was the courage of the steer in the hands of the butcher. Even when he was hurt, the Georgian fight with the ferocity of a wounded or cornered tiger, but rather with the stub, bornness of the ox which braces its legs and strives to stand up under the mallet stroke. Stribllng gave all he had and it was quite a distance from being enough.

They will tell you that Strlbling is thru. As a matter of fact he may fight better from now on. He has discovered that ne can take a beating. If he has to, and emerge without serious Injury. From now on, he will fight without the load of responsibility which he carried.

Persons will not expect so much from him him to live up to imagined capabilities, of which he not possessed. Stribllng. as a matter of fact, doean't have to care whether he boxes any more or not. He has youth, friends, and money enough to keep back the wolves from the door. Strlbling is a fine chap and a pleasant companion; but he a great fighter.

What of it? There are any number of things he might do superlatively well. BY LEO H. PETERSEN. NEW YORK. (UP).

Fears that the Brooklyn Robins kicked away their 1931 National league pennant hopes during an early season slump appeared to have been premature. The Robins, who spent the first two months of the season buried in the second division, have won eighteen of their last 22 contests to climb to third place, four games behind the St. Louis current pace-setters. Rated as one of the most formidable clubs in the circuit. Brook lyn could not hit its expected stride until the Robins began the home stand, which they climaxed Monday with a 4 to 3 victory over the New York Giants.

The victory gave the Robins a record of sixteen victories against four defeats in twenty home games against Chicago, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, GHncinnati and New York. Previous to coming to Ebbets field the Robins had won two at Pittsburgh. Jack Quinn Stops Giants. Jack Quinn, veteran spitball hurler, celebrated what he said waa hla forty-second birthday, but what the record books show as his forty-sixth, by pitching Brooklyn to its third straight victory over the second place Giants.

Quinn relieved Luque in the seventh and retired the nine men to face him in order. The St. Louis Cardinals retained their three and one-half game margin of leadership over the Giants altho defeated 2 to 1 in ten Innings by the Chicago Pat Malone and Hack Wilson, who have been accused of giving Manager Rogers Hornsby some trouble this season, combined their talents to upset the 1930 pennant winners. Malone allowed only seven hits and helped win his own game when he doubled in the tenth and scored on single. Wilson forced the game in extra innings in the ninth when he singled, took second on a wild pitch, third on an infield out, and scored on one-bagger.

Pittsburgh came from behind to defeat Cincinnati, 6 to 4. Boston defeated Philadelphia 4 to 2 in the other National league game. Fred Frankhouse allowed only four hits in registering his fifth consecutive triumph. Nats Cut Lead of Washington cut American league leadership to four and one-half games by defeating the Athletics, 4 to 2. George Earnshaw allowed only six hits, but five errors by his mates causAl his downfall.

New York dropped further behind the second place Senators by losing a 6 to 3 eleven-inning decision to tne Boston Red Sox. Errors played a big part in enabling the Red Sox to stage the winning three run spurt. The St. Louis Browns continued their winning ways by taking the Rrst game of a double header from the Chicago White Sox, 3 to 1 but they were beaten out in the aftermath, 6 to 5. Detroit defeated Cleveland 5 to in a contest that was called in the seventh Inning because of rain.

"Beat was the watchword as about 300 golfers started play in the twenty-seventh annual Nebraska state golf tournament at Happy Hollow club here Monday.

To show that his form is still in pretty fair shape he shot a practice round Sunday in 70, three under Should he win the present tourney it will be his third consecutive state title, a new record. Johnny is a topheavy favorite in the betting.
