  • Los Gigantes De Nueva York De Bill Terry Tuvieron Otra Buena
    1934 Los Gigantes de Nueva York de Bill Terry tuvieron otra buena temporada en 1934 anotando 760 carreras y permitiendo 583, el menor de la liga, pero no fue suficiente para obtener el banderín de la Liga Nacional. El joven Mel Ott bateó para 0.326 con 119 carreras anotadas solo superado por Paul Waner (con 122), recibiendo 85 bases por bolas y empató con Ripper Collins en cuadrangulares con 35. El manager-jugador Bill Terry fue segundo en bateo con 0.354 detrás de Waner (0.362) anotando 109 carreras. Jo Jo Moore bateó para 0.331 y cruzó el plato en 106 ocasiones. Hal Schumacher ganó 23 juegos (23-10,3.18 CLP) y Carl Hubbell tuvo marca de 21-12 con el título de carreras limpias permitidas de 2.30. Pero fueron los Cardenales de San Luis quienes se llevaron el título de la Liga Nacional. La competencia estuvo bastante interesante pues los Gigantes quedaron a dos juegos del primer sitio. Nueva York había sido el líder durante más de cuatro meses hasta que al final las cosas se le complicaron. Sucedió el 28 de septiembre que Dizzy Dean (30-7, 2.66 CLP) de los Cardenales blanqueó a los Rojos de Cincinnati para empatar con Gigantes en el primer lugar. Al siguiente día Paul Dean (19-11, 3.43 CLP), el hermano menor de Dizzy, vence 6-1 de nueva cuenta a los Rojos mientras que los Gigantes perdían con los Dodgers de Brooklyn. Un día después el mismo Dizzy blanquea otra vez a los Rojos 9-0 dando una ventaja a su equipo que jamás perdería.

  • Hrizonhhighways February • 1951
    HRIZONHHIGHWAYS FEBRUARY • 1951 . THIRTY-FIVE CENTS , l /jJI I\fj Spring has a good press. The poets make much ado about birds, bees, flowers and the sprightliness of the season. They neglect such mundane subjects as spring house cleaning and overlook the melancholy fact that armies with evil intentions march when the snow melts. We hope our only concern is with flowers, bees and birds and things like that. As for spring house cleaning, just open the doors and let the house air out. Why joust with vacuum cleaners and mops when spring beckons? Spring does a good job of beckoning in the desert land. It is our pleasure to show you some panoramas of the desert and desert plateau country when nature's fashion calls for spring dress. We wish we could promise the most colorful spring ever but the effiorescence of spring depends on the rainfall. We have had a darned dry "dry spell" hereabouts, broken only by a good rain in late January. If the rains keep on, then we can predict a real pretty March, April and May, but who the heck is going to be silly enough to try to tell whether it'll rain. Anyway, we'll promise you grand weather. An Arizona spring can't be beat. The weather had better be perfect! Sometime this month a group of wonderfully agile and extremely well paid young men who answer to the roll call of the Cleveland Indians, and another group of even more agile and even better paid young men who form the New York Yankees baseball team arrive in Tucson and Phoenix for spring training, the latter to get ready to defend the World's Championship, the former to try to bring it to Cleveland.
