RECENT DEAL MAKES INDIANS STRONG PENNANT FACTORS
cm also
GAINBY
TRADE
By BABE RUTH
BOSTON. April 30.—1 t strikes
Die that the Cleveland club is
going to be a lot more prominent
in the pennant fight as a re
sult of the deal with the White
Sox a few days ago. And it
strikes me also that the Sox will
be benefitted in a hitting and
scoring way. In other words this
new deal which sent Bill Cissell
and Jim Moore to the Indians in
exchange for Johnny Hodapp and
Bob Seeds should work to the
advantage of both clubs.
How can each club be helped
by the same deal, you may ask.
Well the way to figure every
trade is on the basis of what the
clubs needed. Cleveland needed
a shortstop, and has been in
want of one for years, or ever
since Joe Sewell began to slow
up on his ground covering there.
All kinds of shifts were made in
the Cleveland infield but none of
them seemed to work out all
right. Game after game slipped
away from the Indians through
that hole at shortstop.
Thought Long
This no doubt was the main
object of the Cleveland club in
giving up such a hitter as
Hodapp and a player of Seeds’s
all around ability. You know
you have to come high to get
just what you want in a baseball
trade. Billy Evans and Roger
Peckinpaugh probably thought a
long time before putting the okay
on any trade which would take
Hodapp away from them but
they needed a shortstop so badly
that they finally agreed.
Cissell has never been a great
hitter as a major leaguer but I
think he can be counted upon to
improve considerably on that .200
average which he registered last
year. In his three earlier sea
sons with the White Sox he was
much better than that. Nor
mally he should hit about .275 or
.280 and an experienced short
stop of this hitting strength
should make a big differnce with
Cleveland. Hodapp’s bat is sure
to be missed but think of the
games that can be saved by
good shortstopping.
Hodapp is not the best infielder
in the league but he is far from
the worst and he sure is bad
news for pitchers when he steps
up to the plate.
Poison to Yanks
If he played as strong a defen
sive game against all clubs as he
has shown against us you could
never get him away from Cleve
land. He certainly has been
poison to the Yankees both at
bat and out there around second
base. Johnny will add a lot of
punch to the White Sox and that
is something which they need
badly. Seeds is also a good hit
ter. Cissell will improve the de- :
fensive play of the Cleveland in
field. and that is what the
Indians needed most of all.
Now about the other players
In this deal. Because Seeds never
won himself a regular berth with
Cleveland, and because Jim Moore
is a comparatively young pitcher,
don’t overlook them entirely. I
know it is customary to figure a
baseball trade merely on the
prominent players involved. But
sometimes the fellow, who gets
little attention when such a deal
is made, comes along to prove
himself quite a ball player.
I recall very well the time that
Tris Speaker was sent to Cleve
land by the Boston Red Sox. A
fellow by the name of Jones
was included in the deal but he
got only passing notice. It hap
pened that he had won something
like three games while losing
eight during the previous season
as a member of the Cleveland
club.
Janes Flashes
That fellow Jones
turned out to be one of the best
pitchers the American League
ever had. It is more than 16
years since he was regarded as
just a ball player thrown into a
bi" deal, and he is still pitching
big league ball.
Before Joe Vosmik crashed his
way into the Cleveland outfield
with his powerful hitting and all
around skill we saw quite a little
of Bob Seeds, and he impressed
me as a ball player who was
likely to come through as Cleve
land’s regular left fielder Chick
Jamieson was getting along in
years and somebody would soon
be in his place. But .t wasn't
long before Seeds found himself
up against the task of beating
out such players as Averill. Vos
mik and Porter to get into that
outfield, and that is a big job
for any ball player.
So Seeds goes to the Sox now
and the opportunity to play more
regularly may be just what he
needs. As for Moore, I heard this
spring that he had a chance to
displace one of the Sox veterans
and crash through as a regular.
So it may be that Seeds and
Moore will some day make this
trade look even better than it
looks now.

Fitzpatrick’s Bat Big Noise
As Eastern Nine Scores
Charlie Guyon, coach of the Eastern High baseball team, will
probably store Eddie Fitzpatrick’s bat in the trophy room.
All Eddie did yesterday was to*
hammer out three home runs as |
the Lincoln Parkers downed Cen :
tral, 6-3, in the Eastern Stadium.
The victory was important, prac
tically insuring the Lincoln
Parkers their sixth straight inter
high baseball championship.
Needs Two Victories
Eastern need now only defeat
Business and Western in order .
to finish with a clean slate. Cen- j
tral had previously scored two ;
victories and a win over Eastern :
would have given it the laurels •
and ended Eastern’s monopoly ■
on the title.
The Centralites, however, didn’t ;
figure they’d run into a demon :
at the plate in this Fitzpatrick
lad, who also played brilliantly in
his Centerfield position. Fitzr .
Patrick’s trio of circuit smashes ;
drove four runs over the plate. i
Fickle Base Running
Central’s greatest scoring threat (
was checked by fickle base run- s
ning on the part of “Shorty” s
Chumbris in the third. Emmett s
Buscher, Central pitcher, singled :
with one away and Chumbris
walked. Bill Moran hit a Texas
leaguer and Buscher was held at ■
third but Chumbris ran him off :
the bag and Buscher was flagged ;
at the plate. Chumbris and Mo- i
ran counted, however, when Joe :
Mills bobbled Bryant’s roller.
Wily Chief Guyon crossed up
Jack |Ray. Central coach, by ,
starting Cecil Hale, a right- i
hander, instead of Dick Lanahan, ;
his ace southpaw. It was said ;
that Ray had practiced his bat
ters all week against southpaw
slants but they saw little of such :
yesterday until Hale was relieved j
by Lanahan m the eighth.

TWO SPORTS IN
BALTIMORE
By HARRY COSTELLO
BALTIMORE, April 30.—This
good old city seems to have stolen
the Washington Bicentennial
Committee’s thunder, at least for
today.
Some 45,000 persons, fully 10,-
000 of them from Washington
and nearby Virginia, were to at
tend this afternoon two impor
tant sports events here, the thirty
eighth renewal of the famous
Maryland Hunt Cup point-to-point
race, and a lacrosse battle be
tween West Point and Johns Hop
kins University.
Close to 30,000 crosscountry
and fox-hunting enthusiasts, as
well as society leaders from all
sections of the country, were ex
pected to witness the thirty-ninth
Maryland Hunt Cup, while an
other 15,000 planned to witness
the lacrosse game between two
undefeated twelves ranking at the
top of the northern and southern
districts.
Scene of Cup Classic
Snowhill Farm, near Towson,
was the scene of the Maryland
Hunt Cup classic and a sensa
tional race%was promised with 17
ready to accept the issue, a four
mile test over 22 stiff timber
jumps, one of them made more
difficult by virtue of a water
hazard on the far side.
C. L. Heiser’s Bon Master and
Benjamin Leslie Behr’s Soissons,
the former twice winner of the
Maryland Hunt Cup and the lat
ter victorious once, attracted
widespread attention today.
Other entrants Included Mill
Creek Stables’ Sea Soldier, son
of Man O’ War and half brother
to Soissons; W. W. Lanahan’s
Reel Foot, which finished second
to Brose Hover two weeks ago at
My Lady’s Manor point-to-point;
Mrs. T. H. Sommerville’s Trouble
maker; Mrs. T. H. Symington’s
Irish hunter, Primero, winner in
1931 of the Maryland Grand Na
tional: Mrs. T. W. Durant’s two
sterling timber-toppers, Mac-
Carthy More and Barleycorn;
Richard K. Mellon’s Cornea; C.
Wilbur Miller. Jr’s. Flitterman;
J. W. Y. Martin’s Buddy Clark;
Addison Stern’s Patley Stinney;
Mrs. Laura M. Curtis’ speedy
Fugitive: H. R. Bishop’s Bulgold;
Holmes Alexander’s Red Dragon
and William C. Langley’s Marl
hill Boy
Hopkins Slightly Favored
Johns Hopkins entered the in
tersectional lacrosse match a slight
favorite to win from the Cadets.
An Army triumph today would be
interpreted as throwing the Olym
pic games lacrosse contention
wide open, while a Hopkins vic
tory would mean that Baltimore,
College Park and Annapolis would
have a corner on probabilities for
the Olympic games competition.
Johns Hopkins, University of
Maryland. St. John’s, oi Annapo
lis, Navy and the Mt. Washington
Club team of this city comprise
Maryland’s Big Five in lacrosse.
It seems a shame that Wash
ington cannot muster enough
directing strength in the field of
sports to control two such at
tractive sports events as Balti
more staged today.

Helen Madison Diets ,
To Get in Shape ;
For Olympics li
Helene Madison, the most tai- .
ented United States girl swim
mer, may never crack some
of the records that she has put
into the record books.
The reason is the story the j
Fairbanks tell.
When Miss Madison stepped
on the scales the other day she
tipped the beam at 160 pounds,
nearly 20 pounds more than
last summer when she was set
ting such a dizzy pace in the
wild waves.
Her coach. Ray Daughters,
has put her on a strict diet for
the Olympic games* ,
