N
. _By F. M. WILLIAMS
Young Mr. Terry Moore, Who
plays centerfisld for the St. Louis
Cardinals, baseball c¢hampions of
the world, starced professional
baseball in a most unusual way,
he disclosed Tuesday while wait
ing for his team to take the field
against the University of Bulldogs
in Dublin.
Moore, who Frank Frisch,
Cardinal manager, terms the *“‘best
rookie in the majors,” is a like
ahle fellow, but doesn't want Lo
talk - about - himself. .
Terry's home is in St. Louis,
where he was a printer before
entering professional baseball in
1934, He played quite a bit, how
ever, with independent teams in
St. Lowis, and it was while per
forming in one of these games
that.a Card scout “found” him,
%" & On Vacation i
“Last spring,” Moore said, "the‘
Cards offered ;me a contract, and
a trip to Avon Park with the Co
lumbus club of the American as
sociation. Thinking it would be a
pretty good trip, 1 asked the boss
for my vacation at this time, in
stead of waiting until later in
the summer.
“For some reason or other, I
had never thought of trying to
play professional baseball before,
but it didn't take long for me to
fall for it in a big way. Along
towards the end of spring train
ing at: Avon Park, they (Colum
bus officials) told me they still
wanted me to sign a contract.
“KEven then I did not dream of
sticking in a Class AA league, but
I liked professional baseball, so [
gave up my job as a printer and
accepted the contract. And I cer
tainly am glad I did.”
-~ It is quite an experience, we
imagine, to leave home thinking
you are going topget a free vaca
tion, and winding up with a con
tract te play professional base
ball-—at.a pretty good salary, too.
“Say,” Moore suddenly exclaim
ed, “doesn’t Harold Epps live in
your town?"”
Likes Epps
It was just what we were get
ting around too,: but it wasn't
near as hard as expected, for
Terry likes the local boy, and
knows him wvery well. He thinks
he will be one of the outstanding
players in the Class AA leagues
this year, ‘and will make Colum
bus a very valuable man.
“I met Harold last spring while
I wWas at Avon Park,” Terry said.
“I thought I was fast until I met
him, but he outran me in every
race we had while in training.”
In the St. Louis-Columbus
game, which was one of the
wildest ig history, ending 25-18
in the Cards favor, Epps collect
ed four hits, Moore said.
One thing that is worrying
Moore, but is secretly pleasing to
Frisch, is the fact that Terry is
in a bad batting slump. He went
hitless against the Bulldogs, and
sinece the first few exhibitions has
not done so well at the plate.
In a Slump
Frisch, however, helieves all
ball playvers are in for a couple
of slumps each season, one dur
ing the early stages and another
right after mid-séason, and thinks
once Terry does start hitting, it
will be prefty hard for National
league pitchers to get him out.
Moore doesn’t like it, though,
and is trying mighty hard to
come out of his slump.
' Asked who was the best pitcher
lhe had faced this spring, he re
plied, “they are all good when
‘ll'm batting.”
Terry doesn't read the news-
Jpapars, .he 'says, which« is- some
thing that is hard to believe.
Newspapers, according to Moore,
are too fickle. One day you are a
hero, and the next a bum, he de
clared.
“However, 1 don’t blame the
reporters nor the newspapers, be
cause they know what the publie
wants, and they try to give it to
them. A player can't help having
an off-day sometimes, and that's
when he gets the razzing from
the reporters. It's all in baseball,
however, and we have to lTearn to
disregard it,” he said.

(Associated Press Sports Writer)
l" AUGUSTA, Ga. — (#) — A great
[]ittlo Italian, Gene Sarazen, bronz
- ed from a blazing sun, drew the at
" tention of the betting fraternity to
~day as the mighty guns of Ameri
can golf were cocked for the initial
firing in the secona annual $5,000
lAugusta National tournament,
~ They call it Bobby Jones’ tourna
ment, for it is the outgrowth of an
ideal’ cherished by the retired
)warld's champion, but as the field
moved into action In the 72 hole
campadign, it was Sardzen who
’«lnimed the spotlight.
I betting circles, money was be
ing loaded on tre tocky clubwield
er. He has been established a prime
‘favorlte. Quoted odds on Gene
were 6 to 1, with Jones second
choice at 8 te 1.
It would be a great show to see
these twe old rivals fighting down
the streteh for the top prize of this
brilliant tournament but the field
seems a bit too fast for the great
Bobby, who has been missing from
the active ranks for five years and
has lost the steadiness so essential
to competition.
Altogether 66 of the country’s
noted eampaigners were entered in
the ¢lassic, including 55 profes
sionals, - nine amateurs and. two |
so-called ‘“business man' dm‘a‘teursi
~—Bobby Jones and Johnny Dawson
of Chicago. I
There were no less than six pres
ent titleholders on hand to fire for |
the coveted honor, headed by Olin
Dutra, the black thatched power
house from 'Los Angeles and 1934
National Open champion. Then!
there’'s Paul Runyan, the diminu
tive P. G. A. king who last week
blazed away to win the North-
South open at Pinehurst with a
record breaking total of 276 for 72
holes; W. Lawson Little, jr., ama

Jean Tomlin Winner
Of Shirley Temple
Contest Last Night
Athens' Shirley Temple is two
year old Jean Tomlin, qaughter of
Mr. and Mrs. M. 1.. Tomlin.
Jean was selected out of 69
contestants as the child best suited
to represent Athens in a national
contest to be held by Fox Studios
at an early date, at the Palace
theate, last night.
The audience did the judging,
and the child getting the most ap
plause as they appeared on the
stage, was declared the winner. It
took nearly an hour to eliminate
other contestants.
At the beginning of the show
each child was marched across the
stage and introducéed by A. D.
Robinson, manager of the Palace.
No one was eliminated during this
procedure and each child was loud
ly applauded.
After introductions, contestants
were brought upor the stage in |
groups of ten, with two being‘
chosen from each group to com-|
pete in the final elimination. Tt/
was evident that little Miss Tom‘wl
lin had attracted the fancy of the
erowd long before she was finally
named the winnér, but it took five
or six times to select her, after the
group had narrowed down to three.
Miss Beverly Ann Beusse, daugh
ter of Mr, and Mrs. D. D. Beusse,
and Miss Joyce Beusse, daughter
Miss Ruth Fowler, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Fowler,
of Mr. and Mr. Bert Beusse, were
runner-ups in the contest.
The winner will sit on a throm,
in the lobby of the Palace during!
the two-day run of Shirley Tem-‘
ple’s newest picture “The Little
Colonel”, which begins today. She |
will give each child attending the
theater a booklet containing the
life of Shirley Temple, written by
the little screen star, and the first|
250 children attending the showl
will be given Shirley Temple but- |
tons. I
The Palace was packed and jam- |
med by people from various parts!
of this section, who came to seel
the contestants. It was a complete |
success, although several entries|
dropped out at the last minute.
