PRAISES HIS GANG By BILL BRAUCHER Central Press Sports Editor THE FORDHAM FLASH opened the door sleepily and flashed back into bed, ready for cross-examination concerning the case of the National league versus the St. Louis Cardinals. It was the end of a road trip for Foreman Frisch and his Gas House Gang. An exhibition game in Cleve land on an off day, then home to meet the Giants and other invading eastern clubs. Foreman Frisch was tired. He had planned a nap, but he would talk baseball even in bed. '•We need more pitching,” he re plied to a question on the status of the Gang. ‘ But I think you can see vie got a great team when we’re load ing the league with Parmelee and Paul Dean on the bench. Our staff right now is Dizzy Dean Haines, Winford, Hcusser and Rhem. And we're winning. "Take the Cincinnati series. We lose a double-header with great pitch ing. Next day we come right back and win a double-header with Hcusser and Rhem, and neither of them is right. We got a lot of runs for them, and it doesn't make a whole lot of difference how they pitch. That's the kind of team we’ve got. Hustlers! It takes a good ball club to rally after dropping a double-header and win two the very next day with second string pitchers.” Could the Cubs Do It? The Cub seemed to be a pretty good 1 b£H club. Good pitching and punch. “sure, a good ball club. But where would that team be without Wameke Discovery .... He can carry the mail and Davis? Could the Cubs keep up with us without their two best pitch ers? Before Davis came to the team and when Warpeke wasn't going for thert. where were the Cubs? That’s "WHy I like the Cardinals this year. This • crowd of ball players is going but there to win whether we get the IJitchin gor not.” -Was Daffy’s injury serious? When ’•would ’he be back? • _ “He hurt his shoulder. It's not serious. While the arm was lame he got out of condition. He could pitch •right- now, but he’s weak. Has to get . .in shape. His case is like a lot of ball clubs I know. They don’t get into condition right in spring. A guy should take off 10 to 15 pounds in training camp. Instead of that the average bal] player works as little as possible •in spring, figuring he’s got a long season ahead. He takes off a few pounds and puts it right back on in ■food.” -“And beer ” spoke a voice from the adjoining bed. - Aha? Then that wasn’t a body in •the other bed, after all. The figure rolled over, disclosing the dark fea tures of Dom Miguel Gonzales cele brated catcher, coach and scout. - To digress, Gonzales was the scout ■ the Cards once sent 900 miles to look at a promising ball player. Mike was asked to wire his report. The telegram still- stands as a classic in summa tion. Ie read: “Good field, not hit.” Rhem Gets in Shape But to get back to Frisch. Beer •somehow brought up the name cf •Flint Rhem, veteran playboy and pitcher brought back from the min ors to save his old teammates in a \ dire emergency. How was Colonel : Rhem behaving? The Foreman of the Gas House Gang grinned. “Rhem fits into the Gang perfect ly. We send for an emergency man, a relief pitcher who can save games for us, and start a few. too. Rhem comes in and he’s not more than 25 pounds overweight. We try to g t him in shape and he works hard Finally he gets into a game. "You can almost hear the pounds splashing off him. ‘Shad’ knows a lot about the batters in this league, though, and even if he’s out of shape he can pitch a pretty good game. As , we get into the game it gets hotter t . and hotter. Flint says he's got ‘spots in front.of hjs eyes” ' I can see he’s suffering out there, L- but he’s willing. Lots of heart. And SAVANNAH. GA..

Will G Price, Wichita business man and his two sons, Dick, left, and Will G., Jr., he keeps plugging away until we win a ball game. Flint loses about 15 pounds. In the clubhouse he turns and says: ’Boy, bring me a couple of bottles of beer.' I just ask him, ‘Where do you think you are, Nash ville?’ “They can have beer, but not In the clubhouse, not even the Gas House Gang.” “SPIDER KELLY FIGHTS FOR LIFE OLD TIME PRIZE FIGHTER COLLAPSES FOR WANT OF FOOD TOWSON, Md„ July 10 (TP)—One • of the prize-fighting idols of the days I of John L.
