Battle for League
Lead Goes to Cubs
The battle for first place be-
tween the undefeated Cubs and
Dodgers last week resulted in a
victory for the Cubs by a score
of 16-11. This win placed the
Cubs in undisputed possession of
league winner so far and also
left them the only undefeated five
in the circuit.
The Cubs again were sparked
by “Baby Face” Blake, who threw
in 10 points. However, the out-
standing player on the floor was
by far “Alley-Oop” Jenkins, who
sunk six points and again {broke
up the offense of the Dodgers.
At the half-way mark, the Cubs
are most outstanding.

Boys With Pirates
North Cambria is well repre-
sented on the rosters of the Pitts-
burgh Ball Club this year.
Paul (Lefty) Gormish, whom
area fans will remember as the
star hurler for the Spangler High
baseball team last spring and
who played with Hornell of the
Class D Pony Circuit last sum-
mer, has been advanced as pit-
cher for the Selma farm team of
the Pirates playing with the Class
B Selma team.
Robert Bills of Hastings is on
a Pirate farm team, too. He also
is well-known in this section, and
is with the Class D team at Re-
hoboth Beach.

2 Pro Players Get
Grid Suspensions
Merle Hapes and Frank Fil-
chock, New York Giant Profes-
sional Football Players, were sus-
pended indefinitely by League
Commissioner Bert Bell.
Commissioner Bell announces
that he found the two ‘guilty of
actions detrimental to the welfare
of the National League and of
professional football.”
The two became mixed up in
gamblers’ attempts to “fix” the
championship game last Dec. 15
between the New York Giants
and the Chicago Bears.

Bucs to Change
Hotels This Season
A list of hotels at which the
Pirates will make their headquar-
ters in the various National Lea-
gue cities during their '47 travels
shows three changes as compared
with the set-up of 1946. Shifts
will be made in Chicago, where
the Bues will put up at the Ste-
vens; in St. Louis, where the
Chase will be the new stopping
place, and in New York, where
the Commodore will be the head-
quarters for both the New York
and Brooklyn games.
The Pittsburgh Club again will
stay at the Benjamin Franklin in
Philadelphia, the Kenmore in
Boston, and the Netherland-Plaza
in Cincinnati.
One angle that makes Pitts-
burgh fans feel that the new
owners of the Pirates will quickly
have the Bucs on the upswing to
better things is the fact that
first-division baseball is almost a
tradition at Pittsburgh.
Steel City fans will be back on
their regular diet when the Pir-
ates “get back to a spot among
the first four clubs in the Na-
tional League. In the past 47
years, Pittsburgh has finished in
the first division 37 times. Only
10 failures in the 47 years to
land in the first division is just
about a record for winning ball
in a consistent manner.
‘With 60 full National League
seasons, the Pirates finished in
first place 6 times, in second
place 11 times with one tie for
the position, in third place 7
times with one tie, in fourth place
12 times, fifth. place 6 times,
sixth place 6 times, seventh place
5 times and eighth place 5 times.
To Film Movie on
Life of Babe Ruth
Babe Ruth, making a slow re-
covery after an operation on his
neck for the cure of a severe
headache condition, has disclosed
that negotiations for a movie on
the story of his life will be closed
shortly.
Babe, one of the immortals of
baseball, was a guest at a lun-
cheon in New York given by Her-
bert J. Yates, president of Re-
public Pictures, recently.

George Glamack, All-American
