They began packing at once to join the Brooklyn club. Hayworth broke In with Toronto of the International League in 1926 and played with Detroit for a short period the same year.

He later played with Nashville, Shreveport and Toledo before rejoining the Tigers in 1929. Ross came to Detroit this year from Toronto' after failing in a previous trial. He played with Toledo, Beaumont and Buffalo as well as at Toronto before coming to Detroit. i MMHMWHMMIIIr.Wu v- Jt 1 (4 I il time before Mickey Cochrane joined the club. Ray's release for the waiver price of $7,500 was not altogether unexpected.

The coming of Rudy York and Birdie Tebbetts relegated him to the position of bullpen catcher, and it was felt that some other club, pressed lor catching, might be able to make better use his experience. Brooklyn turned out to be that club. The release of Ross was more a surprise. He was believed have clinched the third base not until he broke his hand on WORTH By Charles P. Ward THERE seems to be considerable irritation in some quarters because the Tigers signed young Virgil Trucks, a pitching prospect who played with Anda-liisia in the low-ranking Florida-Alabama League this season.

After the signing, another club hosc identity is not quite clear tried to lure him away. Since his return to the reservation at his father's request, various Individuals have arisen to yap querulously about the transaction. Although he is ears deep In the bushes and has never thrown a ball even in a medium class bus league, Trucks is being urged by volunteer advisers to fire "contract after contract" back at the Tigers next season until they offer him a sum that is "commen-rirate with his ability." If (this doesn't mean that, somebody is trying to get even with somebody else for something, it must mean that somebody believes Eddie Goosetree has signed a Mathew-ton, Waddell, Hubbell and Grove all in the one person. Maybe the kid is good. Read what one writer says: "Virgil (Fire) Trucks signed for just $99,900 less than the value placed on his pitching ability today.

"In other words, baseball's brightest young pitching prospect cheerfully accepted the $100 he got for signing. He was glad to gt it. The value the Detroit Tigers place on the strike-out king it $100,000. But Has Mr. Trucks Proved His Ability? unpHE TIGERS paid $2,500 for i Trucks.

They stood ready to go as high as $10,000. That was tuo years ago and before he had set any woods afire with his fast ball. "Trucks was playing the outfield from Shawmut, of the Chattahoochee Valley League, before he was changed into a pitcher. He has been firing fast ones for 18 months. "These figures are pointed out to show what the young fellow he has just turned 19 could have done for himself had he waited awhile before signing with anybody.

The writer goes on to discuss arguments that might be used by the pitcher in order to get more dough from the Tigers, He dismisses with a few words the fact that the boy has never pitched in ven a Class minor league. The guy seems to be working himself up into a lather for no good reason whatever. Chances are Trucks will not see Detroit fur a year or two. He probably will wind up at Beaumont next season. Any big league ball player can tell you that the gap between Toledo in the American Association and Detroit in the American League is a wide one, the gap between Toledo and Beaumont wilier and that between Baunmnt and Shawmut in the Chattahootchee Valley League, wherever that is, wider than the Grand Canyon.

Detroit Salary List Usually Satisfies Boys TJOWKVER, if Trucks does 4 4 show enough stuff to warrant liis promition ti the Tigers next season, he probably will have no trouble at all in getting a big league salary. The Detroit salary list is larger than any in baseball right now.

Harmon Backs 'Rep'withFast Scoring at 'M' By Tod Rockwell ANN ARBOR, Sept. 14 Tom Harmon, Michigan's top backfield hope, and more than a dozen veteran linemen, shared the spotlight here today as Fritz Crisler continued rough and tumble scrimmage with his Wolverine football squad. Harmon scored a pair of touchdowns this afternoon against first-rate and paved the way for a third with some smart passing. He gave every indication of living up to his far-flung prep reputation. Crisler Is beginning to show some preference in line selections.

His first selection today was Nicholson and Smith at the ends, Smith and Capt. Janke at tackles, Heikkinen and Olds, guards, and Archie Kodros, center. Because of the presence of Heikkinen, Kodroi Tartars to Square Off CHELSEA, Sept. 14 Wayne University's football team will climax Its ten-day stay at North Lake tomorrow with in intra-squad regulation game at Chelsea High School field. The Trtar squad will break camp Friday and will move it drills to Kelsey Field, Detroit.

and Capt. Janke It was accepted by observers as the No. 1 line. The versatile Harmon was pitted against this line. In front of the Gary halfback were Valck and Frutig, ends, Savilla and Siegel at tackles, Jordan and Brennan at guards and Tinker, center.

Coach Crisler placed Harmon in a so-called second backfield with Kramer as the other half, Evasheski, the former Detroit Northwestern High center, as quarterback and Christie as the fullback. This backfield worked effectively with and aginst both lines. In combination with the top line, Crisler selected Meyer as quarter, Trosko and Purucker as halfbacks with Ed Thillips as the fullback. Elmer Gcdeon, perhaps the fleetest of Michigan's ends, wag benched today by a charley horse in his left thigh. He had not been injured, but an old injury became aggravated and he was ordered to rest for a week or possibly 10 days.

There are no other injuriei of consequence on the squad, a fact that attests to the excellent condition of the athletes. Old-Timers to Meet Detroit Old-Timers' Baseball Association will hold an important meeting at noon Thursday at Tommy Long's Cafe. rMNOTES Among the spectators at yesterday's game was Jack Bums, former Tiger first sacker who managed the Toronto team of the International League this season. Burns said he came to Detroit merely to visit old friends. The Tigers generally regretted Pav Wj.M.

nrth for Brooklyn, for the catcher was one of the most popular members of the club. The one who will miss him most is Tommy Bridges, who has been his close friend and hunting companion for several years. He and Hayworth plan to take a hunting trip to Northern Ontario at the end of the baseball season. Tommy said the fact that Ray has become a Trolley Dodger will not affect their friendship. Jim O'Leaty, baseball correspondent for the Boston Globe, spent a good part of his seventy-seventh birthday in the pi ess box at Briggs Stadium.

He is the oldest scribe traveling with a baseball club and takes the Pullman jumps like a youngster.

14 A. The Giants tossed a large monkey wrench into the already tangled National League pennant race today by whipping the pare. setting Pittsburgh Pirates in both ends of a double-header, 3 to 0 and 10 to 3, before a crowd of 28.1S5 at the Polo Grounds. The net result of this develop-: ment was to slice the Pirates' i league iead to 2 'a games over the. Chicago Cubs, and raise the Giants to a tie for third place with the Cincinnati Reds, a game back.

The Pirates suffered a severe blow when Bob Klinger. rookie pitcher, was lost to the club indefinitely with a sore arm. Klinger, due to pitch the opener against the Giants whom he had beaten four times this year, warmed up for about 10 minutes today but could barely lift his arm and Cy Blanton was given the assignment. Hal Schumacher, "sinker-balled" the Bucs to defeat with seven hits In the opener. His mates combed Cy Blanton for two runs In the first frame and added the third whon Alex Kampouris cracked homer in the fourth.

Obviously pressing, the Bucs were outclassed right from the start in the nightcap. Dutch Brandt gave up a run in the first Inning and then he and Bill Swift were blasted for seven more in the second. Harry Gumbert was touched for 10 hits by the Bucs In the after piece, but after he was treated to an eight-run margin he was never in trouble.

They crashed through the mist and the rain like meteors in a tailspin, thudding into the soft earth. Forty-eight from Tuesday's survivors made Lucifer Iook like a -parachute jumper Charley Yates, the British champion, fell over a faulty, stumbling putter before Ed Kingsley, of Utah, by 2 and 1. After winning 12 consecutive matcher over British and United States turf, Yates fell at the thirteenth wave when his usually fine putting stroke suddenly turned into a push and a stab. The day's deadly volley, fired from front and flank, wiped out five 1937 Walker Cup teammates. It stopped Bud Ward and Harry Givan, the two prides or the North west.

Art Doering took care A Ward and the deadly consistency of Johnny Goodman, defending champion, eliminated the long-hitting Givan. Freddie Haas, the king of the bayous, also fell. Roger Kelly, the big hitter from Los Angeles, dropped off at the twenty-first hole before J. K. French, of San Francisco, a Far Western playmate.

Sweetscr Bows to Tailer It was a day of swift reprisal and sudden death, of innumerable extra-hole matches, fought out in a steady ail-day rain over soggy fairways. The fusillade finally caught Jess Sweelser, former British and United States champion. Three down and five to piay against Woodie riatt, Sweetscr rallied in the forenoon to win. in the afternoon he got the jump on Tommy Tailer, of Long Island, to stand 3 up at the ninth. This was the physical limit of the veteran of 36 as the younger Tailer came along to win, 1 up.

It was a fine performance for an entry who was starring 16 years ago. The years caught up with him over a course that demanded hard and heavy hitting all day long. But don't think all the stars were blown out like candlelights in a gusty wind. Goodman, I'lucher Advance Johnny Goodman, still wearing his crown won at Portland, survived both charges. And Johnny is coming on to his best game.

Johnny Fischer, cnampion two years ago, stood up before the shock, a dangerous challenger for the final round. And there was Gus Morcland, the Texan transplanted to Peoria, now known as the "Peor.a Phantom," who had the day's biggest adventure. The medal winner caught eighteen-year-old Bobby Dunkelberger from North Carolina in the morning show. Dunkelberger weighs 115 pounds in soaking wet clothes. As irvin Cobb once a i "1 have an aunt who has a goiter that weighs more than But this human splinter carried More-land five extra holes to the twenty-third green before he retired.

Moreland had to play those extra holes two under par to win. "He got in my hair," Gus said, "and almost tore my scalp off before 1 could shake him loose." Chapman Under Tar The best golf of the rain-soaked day was played by Dick Chapman, of Greenwich, Conn. Chapman was one under par for both rounds, an amazing performance over this course in an all-day rain. 1 saw him drive the dagger into Doer ing heart on the eleventh, when he stood 4 up, and then holed out from the bunker for a birdie three. Chapman's golf has been brilliant from the start.

He is playing ex. tremcly well and he has full con. fidence in his game. A3 the case now stands, the East is well in the lead with six survivors. The East has Chapman, Tailer, Willie Turnesa, Wilfred Crossley, Frank Strafacl and James Fraser all fine golfers left in the huddle.

The departure of Hayworth means that Dixie Parsons, young catcher who is coming up from Beaumont next spring, will be retained to help out York and Tebbetts. He is built on the lines of Bill Dickey, physically, and is said to be an efficient receiver. Hayworth and Ross were notified of their release shortly before DON track four times. In fact, he broke his own record Tuesday as he was the only rider ever to do it three times locally.

Williams' streak also brought joy and money to the stable tf Mrs. Edward McCuan, of Ever-cttsville, 111., as three of his triumphs were aboard her horses. Catch Fly in the seventh; West Wichita in the sixth and Scrip Money in the third. His other winner was on Baby Eagle, a $14 upset in the first race. Bob Vedder, one of the best jockeys at the Detroit fall meeting, suffered a broken collar bone when his horse, Busby, stumbled in the fifth race.

Vedder was riding for his thirteenth victory of the meeting. At the time he was second in victories only to Tommy Ward, the meeting's leading jockey. The youngster is in Highland Park General Hospital and will be out for at least four weeks. The 5,000 crowd was betting on Williams throughout the afternoon rather than the horses he rode. And that circumstance is what makes the little Sizzler rioe.

The influence of the young Mr. Williams on the mind of the bet tors is shown quite well in the fim.1 race which Sammy did not win. It was a long race, a mile and three-sixteenths and the mud dy track conditions brought about several added starters, including Soldier Girl. Thus the racing paper fans had absolutely no information just what kind of a lady Soldier Girl was. She opened at 10 to 1 and the first reading on the betting board discovered her 12 to 1.

The Williams fans soon took care of that matter. Soldier Girl, a 12-to-l shot, 10 minutes later became a 16-to-5 second choice to White Bread. Williams brought Soldier Girl home fourth while Paplay, an 8-to-l shot, delivered. Grimm to Continue His Radio Work CHICAGO, Sept. 14 (A.

Ward The Tigers' winning streak came to an abrupt end at six games Wednesday when they dropped the final game of the series with the Red Sox, 9 to 2, before, a rather slim crowd of 2,800 persons. Author of the setback was Joe Heving.

a right-hander who once wore the spangles of the Chicago White Sox. After the game the discomfited Tigers angrily asserted that Joseph didn't have enough speed to stun a jaundiced jay bird. Still, he was good enough to limit the Tigers to nine hits and keep big Henry Greenherg and large Rudolph Y'ork from hitting any home runs. Because of his failure to connect for a round-tripper. Green-berg dropped two games behind the record home-run pace of Babe Ruth.

However, he can put himself on even erms with the Ruth-ian pace again if he hits a homer in the first and second games of the series with the Yankees, which opens at Briggs Staduim Thursday. In 1927 Ruth hit homers Nos. 51 and 52 'r his one hundred and thirty-fifth and one-hundred and thirty-sixth games.

Manager Del Baker sent Tommy Bridges out to seek his twelfth victory of the season yesterday, but Tommy was not up to the task.
