Chandler received 240 votes and i 12 of a possible 24 first place ballots. The 34-year-old right hander whose specially is a sinking fast Ball won 20 and lost 4 for the world champions this year and achieved an earned run average of 1.67, lowest in the american league for the past 23 years. Chandler capped his most successful season with two world series victories Over the St. Louis cardinals. Spud graduated with honors from Georgia a school of agriculture in 1932 after starring on the Gridiron and the Diamond for the bulldogs for a Long time it seemed he would be remembered i in Yankee stadium mostly if hot entirely for his football feats. His debut in new York s Mammoth stadium was made to the Grid in 1929 against Nyu and he came Back the next two years to give spectacular performances a Bah carrying passing and punting. During his three seasons Georgia heat Yale three times and or. I Mai Stevens then coaching the elis u lied Chandler a a next to Catfish �si.4th, the greatest Anno or Ever in Yale bowl baseball Tough big time baseball however turned out to be tougher to crack than the Yale line. After casting his not with the Yankees Spud began seeing the country without making too much of an impression in it a in five years he shuttled to clubs in Springfield mass., Bing he onion and Syracuse n. A Minneapolis Oakland Calif Portland ore., and Newark n. J. With Only one of these clubs was he Able to win More than 10 games. He was Hurt part of the time and in 1933, the year after his graduation to the Tan Keea from Newark he had to Nave an operation for the re Moval of Bone chips in his pitching Elbow. In the Spring of 1939 he stepped into a Hole in the running track at the University of Georgia and broke a Bone in his ankle. Even though he at last became a big Winner this year Chandler still was dogged by the spectre of perverse Luck As in his first Start this season. The Washington senators made Only one hit but it was a double by Ellis Clary first Man up in the first inning. Many reasons might be Given for chandlery a Success. He has arrived at maturity As a Pitcher he has a wide assortment of pitches and the knowledge of when to use them. But most of All he has the determination of a bulldog. Spud married and lather of a two year old son is probably finished with baseball for the duration As he was recently classified 1-a by his Moultrie. Ga., draft Board.
