Dizzy Dean and Other Oddities From Old Sports Clippings
Dizzy Dean was rosiSed in Denver for collecting his 800 guarantee and leaving the ball park after two innings when he had promised to hurl three. Johnny Psychek, linked to Joe Louis’ era, is seriously ill in Milwaukee. Duke’s boxing coach Add Warren is busy with a Delaware stock farm and won’t return to Duke this year.
