bout was not as interesting as the
“slam-bang affair put on at Browns

worked up an effective guard for
Monterrey s dangerous left hook and 1
the Mercedes lad resorted to a right
cross as his chief weapon. Cruz, a
clever boxer, stood up and slugged
it out with Monterrey, a pugnacious,
aggressive battler. Cruz, battered I
from a previous fight, held a mouth
protector between his teeth. He ap
parently was a bit weary but dem

FRANK BAKER
Long before Babe Ruth, with his
massive shoulders, spindly legs and
tremendous wallop wrote big league
history with a brutal (to pitchers) j
hand, there was a thin, short fel
low by the name of Frank Baker
with the Athletics.
Home Run Baker they called
him. Home Run Baker—because
he had the four-ply wallop to de
liver when It was needed.
Today Baker is a farmer near i
Trappe. Mr., where he has made
his home for many years. He
hasn't been out of baseball so long,
but his deeds, great in their day.
are now dimly viewed through the
dust kicked up by such slugging
behemoths as Ruth. Lou Gehrig.
Jimmy Foxx and the rest of that
hefty tribe.
Baker, first of the home run
kings, oddly enough was not of the i
traditional home run build. He '
hadn’t the great shoulders and pon
derous weight of today’s sluggers
And. remember. Baker hit his
homers when there was no talk of
a lively, springy ball and pitchers
were allowed to use break deliv
eries. now illegal.
Baker was the third baseman on
Connie Mark's ‘ Million Dollar” in
field. which had Jack Barry at
short. Eddie Collins at second and
Stuffy Mclnnis at first. There. |
folks, was an infield, and when you
tossed In Jack Coombs. Chief Ben
der and five or six others for good
measure you can see why Mack's
bunch ruled the American league
and mined the hopes of the other
clubs.
Baker took a solid cut at the
ball and manged to collect 15 or
20 home runs each season at a
time when every Tom. Dick and
Harry wasn’t stepping up to the
plate and knocking a lively ball
out of the nark. Frank was the
original "Home Run" king and a
prime factor in the success of the
Athletics.
The Federal league heads wanN rV
to land Baker one year to add
strength to the new circuit and
they appointed me a committee of
one to go down to Trappe in the
off season to try to line up Mack’s
sluggers for the Feds. I was man
aging the St. Louis Federals at that
time. Well. I went down to Trappe
all right, found Baker on his farm
and gave him the Federal league
offer. But Frank was tied up tight ;
to an Athletic contract and my er
rand proved fruitless. He contin
ued to swat his homers for Connie
Mack.

SPORTS TALK
Speaking of the manly art—
Following Governor Dan's "Nah.
nah. mustn't! mustn't!" Valley fight
fans took to Rio Rico last night.
They saw a fair card between Valley
boys for the most part. Six of the
eight performers live in the Valley
and the other two needed no intro
duction. This beats listening to an
nouncements of "and in this cornah
we have Kid Whozis. honest weight
champion of Rhode Island." The
fans knew the fighters and what to
expect last night.
• • •
The rrowd was rankled a bit at
the draw decision rendered In the
Cowboy Brooks-Patsy Perk brawl.
The majority of the fans seemed
to th!n!i that the Mission school
hoy had earned a derision over the
Mercedes cow hand. Peck fought
a clever but not spectacular battle.
He waited for Brooks to come into
him and then shot effective 1
punchrs. Brooks was probably
riven a diaw on his aggressiveness.
He threw more panchrs than
Patsy but they were not as ef
fective as those fired by the un- j
emotional Mission lad.
• • •
Kid • Guerra, the San Benito
rooster, and sad eyed Jess Sada
failed to »ettle their differences.
Their 10-round fight was adjudged
a draw. They started out slugging
but soon realized they had ten
rounds to go. Guerra Is learning to 1
shoot his 1-ft but still uses his awk
ward twisted body style. If he
would unloosen his taunt pose and
develop a left jab. he would accorn
olish more.
* * *
Johnnv Crux, although not un
to his c!d form, administered his
u:jnl box»ng lessen to Kid Mon
terrey. Monterrey, a barrel- j
ehe«ted minature bulldog, was as
aggressive as ever. Crux had Mon- !
terrey's best shot, his left hook, al
most completely blocked through
rut the bout. Monterrev also has
learned something of Crux* style.

the gun. The little craft leveled
off and skimmed across the
tep of the highest waves.

speed by looking at the water but

TEXAS UNDER
DOGS WINNERS
Spuds, Steers and Sports
Take Wallopings From
Southern Clubs
(By The Sssariated Press)
The bottom dropped out under
the Texas league leaders yesterday,
and the Spudders' winning streak
of 11 straight games was caught In
the crush. It is doubtful that Pres
ident Roberts' circuit ever before
harbored as chesty a lot of second
division clubs.
Dallas. Wichita Palls and Shreve
port suffered alike at the hands of
the vengeful downstaters. The
Spuds had perhaps the most hu
miliating experience, dropping their
aeries final to San Antonio. 23 to
3. The question is open to argu
ment. however, as neither the Steers
nor the 8ports got as far as home
plate. Gus Foreman. Buff right
hander, stopped the leaders cold
with five hits to win a 5 to 0 ver
dict. while the veteran Denny Burns
limited the Sports to four blows as
the Exporters swept their series. 6 to
0. Fort 'Worth and Waco enjoyed
an off day.
Needless to say. the southern up
rising bound the pennant column a
little tighter. Shreveport, meeting
its sixth straight defeat, found it
self on the ragged edge of the sec
ond division today, with three clubs.
Fort Worth. Waco and San Antonio
in a deadlock for the other first
division berths. Beaumont, seventh
was only a game and a half out
of third place. The Buffs, holding
up the procession, had lost only five
more games than the steers In first
place. i
The pilgrimage of northern Clubs
neared Its close today as all squared
off against new opponents. Having
dropped two of three at Houston,
the pace setting Steers drew the Bu
colic Beaumonters as their last
southern opposition. Shreveport, its
double apparently burst, engaged
the Buffaloes. Wichita Falls in
vaded the notorious Katy park at
Waco, and the Fort Worth Kittens
trooped into San Antonio for a trio.

Athletics Drop Two
In Row; Cards and
Bucs March Ahead
(By The Associated Press)
Having lost two games in a row, Connie Mack s Philadelphia Athletic
are experiencing their first slump of the season.
The A s dropped the last game of the Cleveland series on Sunday and
then bowed to the Chicago White Sox 6 to 4, yesterday.
The chances are Mack is doing little worrying. The standings this
morning showed the Athletics seven,,-■■ •—
and one-half games In front of the
second-place New York Yankees
who took time out yesterday to beat
Bridgeport of the Eastern league
3 to 2.
In the only other American league
action of the day. Detroit and Bos
ton split a double bill. The Sox
bunched hits off Owen Carroll be
hind fairly effective pitching by
Charlie Ruffing to win the first i
fray 6 to 5. The Tigers clouted!

struggle, the Cardinals shelling the
Cubs Into defeat by 13 to 3. while
Pittsburgh was nosing out Clncin-;
nati 2 to 1. in a tight pitcher's
battle. All other National league
clubs wer$ idle.
The results left the Cards on top i
of the pack with Pittsburgh half a

Mack Declare* He
Will Not Retire
If A’* Take Flag
PHILADELPHIA. June 18. <**>—
Connie Mack, veteran manager of
the Philadelphia Athletics, today
spiked frequently heard in baseball
circles that he wanted to win one
more pennant and retire.
He said he had no. Intention of
retiring and hoped still to be man
aging the Athletics when he is 70
years old. He is now* 66.
“There ts absolutely nothing to
the report about winning a pennant
and retiring.” said Mack. “I have
no reason to quit. No one will have
to tell me when it is time for me
to give up managing. I’ll know bet
ter than any one else when that
time is at hand
"The only thing that will ever
make me arrive at that decision will
be my health. If the time comes
when to continue managing will
have harmful affection my well
being, then I will step out. Not be
fore.”
Mack revealed he was on the verge
of retiring during the southern
training trip of the Athletics this
spring, because of his health.
