NEW YORK, Aug. 13. UP*—'The
feeling at Forest Hills where the

WALLY BERGER
IS TOP R
Playing With tha Braves,
Hit Hits Meaning
Little
(By Ths Associated Frees)
Playing with s hopelessly out
classed ball club—the Boston Braves
—has not dimmed the batting eye
of Wally Berger cm- killed his spirit.
Many a manager has watched his
team take the Boston tail-enders
over the hurdles, seen Wally follow
the dribblers to the plate and mace
one out of the park, and sighed, “if
I only had him.”
Berger has collected 25 home
runs, 22 doubles and four triples.
I'e leads the league In the number
of runs driven In with 95.
Berger had a field day against
.he Brooklyn Dodgers Sunday, to
tal ng 13 bases in nine times at bat.
E'even bases came in the first game
of the doubleheader when he hit a
homer with the bases crowded, a
triple and two doubles. The Braves
lost both games.
Casey Stengel, tha Dodgers pilot,
sat In the dugout and mused aloud,
lie was thinking of the fellow who
ha£ hit more homers than all the
Brooklyn outfielders put together.
“A guy like that cm this ball team,"
sa'd Casey, “would make Mrs. Sten
etl’s son very happy and the op
ponent's v«7 sad. That’s our big
trouble. We haven’t a fellow who
can get up there in the pinches and
hit one out of the lot.”
Only one game was played in the
major leagues Monday. The Pitts
burgh Pirates cut the Braves’ run
for bogey honors a bit when they
defeated the seventh place Cincin
nati Reds 7-4.
The Pirates collected 14 hits from
four Cincinnati hurl ere as they won
the series, three games to two.

BROWNS AID
TO DETROIT
“-.
Hornsby** Directing League
Race From Position
In Cellar
CHICAGO, Aug. 13.—MP)— They i
didn’t call Rogers Hornsby the
“Rpjah" for nothing.
All washed up as the Rajah of
batsmen, he's the dictator supreme,
so It seems, of the 1935 American
league pennant race with his base
of operations in the Cellar, a cellar
loaded with dynamite.
It Is doubtful whether any man
ager of a last place club, excepting
George Stallings of the Boston
Braves of 1914. ever wielded as much
Influence on s pennant race as has
the Rajah, As pilot of the lowly
Browns, he has:
Paved the road to the i>p for
Detroit, losing 13 out of 16 games
to the pennant bound Tigers.
Opened the door to first place for
the same Tigers by whipping the
Yankees (and his old enemy of Chi
cago Cub days, Joe McCarthy) three
out of four and softening them up
for the on rushing Tigers.
Traded plenty of players, but none
of them to the Yankees or Tigers.
Blasted the pennant dream of the1
Chicago White Sox by winning three
and tying one In their last four
game series when the White Sox
were within striking distance of the
lead. The defeats sent the men of
Dykes on a losing streak that total
ed 10 Tuesday.
Halted the winning streak of John
Whitehead. White Sox rookie pitch
ing star, at eight and sent him off
on a long Iodine: streak.
And yet. the Browns. 294 games
away from the top Tuesday and 74
games away from seventh place,
held a winning edge over only one
team—the Red Sox. whom they have
defeated six times In 11 games. Thev
have won only 35 games out of 100
played, yet they have done more
damage to flag hopes than an army
of chinch bugs on a good Iowa farm
er's crops.
