Shortly after the parades, the; two major pennant races will be|y on, with everyone optimistic. ■ ] Whatever could be accomplished ( during the training period in sunny*] < • limes has been done, and from • now on down to the decisive battl s of next September it will be a ease of survival of the fittest. The experts have picked the| p nnant winners of 1929, the Phila-; delphia Athletics in the American league and the Chicago Cubs in the National, to repeat their triumphs of last season, but the uncertainty of the national pastime provides plenty of hopes which bloom each spring. In the National league where the flag race figures to be quite; as close as usual, the New York. Giants, the Pittsburgh Piiates, the St. Louis Cardinals and even the cistwhile lowly Brooklyn Robins are counted upon to provide stern| opposition for the champions of ; 1929. Astride the American league, the; world champion Philadelphia club! stands like a colossus, but the New York Yankees, the Cleveland In-1 dians and the Detroit Tigers have served notice that they refuse to be written out of the race. Bands will play, pennants will eb hoisted and first balls tossed out more or less inaccurately in eight major league cities about mid-afternoon. ( Already the Boston Red Sox. having defeated the Washington Senatori in a game which anticipated the season’s opening at the National capital yesterday, are out in front with a perfect average of LOOT per cent. But it won t last long. Boston, once almost the baseball capital of the country, is expected to provide the eighth place teams in both pennant races. Following the custom of several years' standing, eastern teams in both leagues are pitted against eastern teams today, with western clubs battling among themselves in the opening series, in the National league, the Braves open at New York. the Phillies play at Brooklyn, the Cubs at St. Louis and the Pirates at Cincinnati. In the junior circuit, the Yankees open against the Athletics at Shibe! Park, where the flags emblematic of the championship of the American league and of the world will be raised with appropriate and in-expetr-ive music. The Senators go tip to Boston, the Indians are at Chicago as guests of the White Sox. while the St. Louis Browns open in Detroit. Approximately 300,000 fans will witness the opening games this afternoon, while the number whicli will follow the progress of the season’s inaugural by radio, score-

board anti newspapers cannot be estimated. Advance sales of tickets us reported to the United Press indicate no lessening us popular interest In the national pasttime. MONMOUTH WINS 4TH BALL GAME Monmouth high school Eagles finished their spring baseball season yesterday at Monroeville by defeating the Monroeville nine, 12-7 making it four wins ami no losses during the season. Six Monmoil h players clouted the hall over the Monroeville fence for home runs during the game. 'i he Molliiioitiii diatiioildecl s Went wild in the second inning and chased seven scores across the plate, I after the score had been tied at 1-1 in the first inning. Neurge, Fuhrman, Fuelling. Bro-' kaw, Franz, and Bettner knocked the ball out of the lot during the, game. Monroeville staged a light rally in the sixth inning and count-; "d h:ee runs, but the Eagle defense stopped the rally before it became dangerous. BASEBALL BRIEFS ♦— ♦ Boston's Red Sox, unanimous choice for last place in the American league, leads the league today by virtue of a 4 to 3 victory over the Washington Senators in yesterday's major league curtain raiser. The Red Sox came from behind j to score two runs off Garland Braxton in the eighth after the game appeared lost. The veteran Phil Tobt and Tom Oliver, rookie out-' fielder, led the Sox attack and drove in all of the four runs. The New York Giants’ second team defeated the Army nine, at West Point, IS to (i in their final pre-season exhibition game Every , New York player got at least one, hit while Jim Tennant held the Gadets to three safeties. Boston's Braves stopped off at Worcester. M iss., en route to New York for their opening gam and! defeated Holy Cross college, 11 to! 1 in an eight-inning cont st.
