For that reason wc’H depart from the usual line about the fracas and recite activities on the House of David.Old Pete Alexander didn’t get into the game In any other capacity than as coach and to bat a, few grounders during infield practice. The veteran is to hurl at least frv* innings in Milwaukee tonight, and anyway, it is not warm enough yet for his arm. So he spent most of the ovening on the bench directing the boys.Doesn't TAlw CrowdsAlex apparently likes his baseball and likes to win. He continually admonished the boys to hustle along and get runs, offered a little encouragement to a player here or there and had a good word for his pitcher almost every time he strodeto the bench. rWhen the game started Alex worked along the Inst base coaching line hut he returned to the dug-out and spent most of the evening there About the seventh inning he ambled out to the third base coaching line and then beat it for his car in center field so he wouldn’t be around when the game ended andwouldn't have to cater to the crowd.Alex doesn't like crowds, is not the fellow who puts oil a big show and apparently doesn’t give a whoop for autograph seekers, A Mcnasha youth sought his autograph before the game started and Alex turned him down. Yet during the fracas he chatted continually with a youngster who sat on one end o£ the bench.This particular chap was cheering for Menasha when Alex heard and tnid * 'Young man you can‘i do that You'll have to cheer for us if ^ou , sit here,experience with Rogers as a player for him and against him showed Hornsby to be pointed an remarks hut reciuiring only that ball games be won and that the men play ball when on the diamond -“I never had any trouble with him,*' Alex said. Even in the world series all he said an the last game against the Yankees was -tlic bases are full/ M It's A1 ex’ opinion that the stories about Rogers were started by some one who was angered at Hornsby’s rebuff and when the Cubs fell down a bit the yarns started to fly.Hack Wilson probably has been trying too hard. Alexander believes, and the new ball grves a pitcher a chance to throw something at tM batter that isn’t as slippery as a billiard balkAnd Alex H surprised at the ‘'wide open cities ho has found In Wisconsin.The box score:House of DavidABKHPOA 13Williams, 2b ,.... 4AU3100Da Fleur, cC. ,. i 61'3n01Heckman, lbf:* » • • iJ1*j70A-0Moore, 1C ..,..O11100Pedexs,on, if ...... f.0o000TTamson, 3b ,,■aJ1030Faust, ss .....2001tEluding, c ....K* + * « o1»}1500Tolha, p , , , ,O3010———~ .Memslia4514162763MadoJney, 3b ..00310Weisgerber, ss»* • • 00o*y*mi3Shcsleski, U .. „0010(IPowell, p.....03100Zenefski, rf0210oSmith, 2b ..... .. 411111Lcvandoski, c(«... 400O01Teitz, lb .....00130oJCryslak, c ..,,----- 31«Y**3«*■/0372s2732Mcnashn000 100-_ A■aHouse of Da\ id . , .M0 102 0_14Two base hit*—Woisgorbcr, To*, ell, Kry*iak, Hickman, Podowm 2 sacrifice hits—Williams; EJeuhng
