Thursday, April 15, 1937 SUBSCRIPTION $2 A YEAR ''Heads-Up Baseball" Movie Attraction At Mattituck High School Next Week M(oUoa-riljture of American League To Be Shown Thurs., Apr. 22 A special showing of "Heads-Up «Baseball," new official motion pic- ture of the American League, will ®held at the Mattituck High School on Thursday, April 22nd at 3 P. M., it was announced today by *A. C. Garelle, Principal of the Mat- tituck High School, which is spon- soring the event. Thg public is invit- ed to attend. ^ Acclaimed an outstanding achie- vement from both the educational and entertainment standpoint, the film is being recommended by base- ball authorities to all devotees of the national pastime, players and *fans alike. Stars from the Amei'ican League form the cast, and include the much publicized Iowa high school youth, Bob Fellei', who in his first full year 'in the majors will draw as much in t salary as did Christy Mathewson in his prime; Tony Lazzeri, voted the "most valuable player" in the lea- gu^^Rogers 'Hornsby,- the greatest %ig^rhanded hitter of all time; Lou -Gehrig, the "iron man of baseball," and more than a score of others. The Yankee's sensational rookie, Joe DiMaggio, whose batting aver- age and fine fielding established him as the "find" of the year, has his swing compared to that of Luke Appling, the American League's ace sticker in 1936. Their contras- iiing form at the plate dispels the age-old adage that "batters are born, not made." Among the many other features of the film are explanatory shots illustrated and illustrating a number of commonly misunderstood rules. Charlie Gehringer, Detroit's graceful second Backer, gives th« correct interpretation of the infield fl||^le, others explain the umpire's ruling when one man passes another on the base paths and what happens when a base is torn loose by the force of a terrific slide. Scenes from ^he 1936 World Series also are shown. •^Ted Huaing, one of the best 1c|own cad best -informed sports an- nouncers, interviews many of the baseball celebrities who appear on ^he screen and describes the action throughout the picture.
