Mexican Davis Cup Team Fears Tilden , Hennessey
U. S. Team to Start Practice Saturday; Allison Due Today. LOCAL LAD RATED HIGH Johnny at Peak of Tennis Game. By Times Special MEXICO CITY, March 30.—William T. Tilden, captain of the United States Davis Cup team today said the American racquet wielders probably would start their practice sessions here Saturday. The zone matches with the Mexican team start next week. Tilden, John Hennessey, Indianapolis flash, Arnold Jones and Junior Coen, the youthful phenom, arrived in Mexico City, Thursday. Wilmer Allison, of the University of Texas, United States national intercollegiate champion, and fourth member of the American team, was expected to arrive here today. Tilden said today that the four members of the team and the alternate, Coen, are in the finest of shape. It was understood here that the pilot of the Yankee team is staking much on the ability of the 27-year-old Indianapolis star, Hennessey. Mexican critics who watched closely reports of the Davis Cup trials at Augusta, Ga., are emphatic in their repeated assertions that Hennessey is at the peak of his game and every bit as dangerous as the versatile Tilden. It was expected that Tilden and Hennessey will play in the singles. BIGBEE WITH PORTLAND Carson Bigbee, who a few years ago was a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates, will patrol an outfield for Portland in the Pacific Coast League this year. THOSE BATS OF BABE Babe Ruth says he finds that lie does his best hitting with bats that do not weigh more than forty-eight ounces. TWO ROOKIES ON INFIELD Brannon and Kress, two rookies with the St. Louis Browns, are expected to start at second and shortstop, respectively, this year. OLYMPIC CANDIDATE Captain Swain, of the Indiana wrestling team, is being boosted as an Olympic wrestling candidate.

15-Year-Old Bobbed Haired Girl Wins Place oh High School Team
L'y United Press GRISWOLD, la., March 30.—The ; name of “Buekman, rs," to be listed in box scores this season in the Griswold High School line-up, will stand for a bobbed haired 15-year-old high school girl, Alice Buekman. Alice achieved her place in the lineup by playing better baseball than nine boys who sought the position. And she added insult to the ch'agrin of the boy players, many of whom considered themselves veterans, by winning the place in her first year of competition. Although a junior, Alice never tried out for the team before. Long drill sessions with her brother, who was a star on the nine last year, made her an expert. Two weeks ago she obtained permission from the school authorities to join in practice sessions. The boys condescendingly let her play with them. And then Coach Phil Morrison announced Alice was their regular right fielder. Coach Morrison said Tie girl might become the star of the aggregation. She fields well, .is above the average in batting, and
Billy Barton Runs Second in Big Event Tipperary Tim Wins Grand National; Only Two Finishes. BY C. P. WILLIAMSON United Tress Stall Correspondent AINTREEE, England, March 30. H. S. Kenyon's Tipperary Tim today won the ninety-second running of the classic Grand National steeplechase over the Aintree course before a throng of 300,000, including hundreds of Americans. A heavy downpour of rain and sleet the morning had so soaked the course that the favorites fell one after another, strewing the muddy course with horses and riders. Hundreds of Americans in the throng cheered the success of Billy Barton in completing the course almost as though the Baltimore horse had won the race. Bruce’s horse was leading the field as it started the second time around, and it seemed as though Billy Barton would score an American triumph. The terrific jumps, thirty in number, took their toll of the field of forty-eight, and of this fceord number of starters only Tipperary Tim and Billy Barton were able to complete the four miles 4C6 yards of the world’s most difficult steeplechase course. Billy Barton himself fell at the very last jump, but his jockey, T. B. Cullinan, gamely remounted and brought the Baltimore horse home to claim second money. The betting was 100 to 1 against the winner and 33 to 1 against Bruce's horse. Draws Revolver in Schoolroom LONGVXTTexas. March 30. Mildred Malone, 13, climaxed an argument in the schoolroom here by drawing a .45-calibre revolver and shouting “Get the principal, don’t call the police.” She was arrested.
is a clever and fleet baserunner, he said. Her chances of becoming a swatter are not great, Coach Morrison admitted, but she is adept at placing “Texas leaguers.” Despite her prowess on the diamond, Alice is not a “tomboy.” -Last year she starred on the Griswold’s girl’s track team and basketball team. Since women have usurped the place of men in many lines of work, Alice can see no reason why she can’t enter professional baseball and she confesses an ambition to become a big league player. She aspires to play first base eventually. The Griswold High School team has twelve games with ether State prep teams. Last year it lost only two games. The young folks want a warm, “homey” room—tell them about your room—run a want ad. MOTION PICTURES

Breaks Record Rice Sprinter Draws Praise From Paddock for Fast Race.
fiji r
Another promising youngster joined the class of distinguished sprinters aspiring for places on the American Olympic team when Claude Bracey. an 18-year-old youngster, ran 100 yards in 3 5-10 seconds at the Rice relay games. He had a brisk wind at his back and the record probably will not be allowed. Charley Paddock saw him run and said he would be a wonderful sprinter when he lengthened his stride.

Tigers Boss Says Detroit Is Improved Moriarity Says Team ‘Will Be in Running’ for Pennant. (Copyright, 1928, United Press) FT. WORTH, Texas, March 30. Like every other major league manager, George Moriarity considers the club he will lead into the 1928 pennant race a vast improvement over that of last season. “We will be in the running,” predicted the Detroit manager to the United Press today, “and I have high hopes, because the Tigers are a team that will improve as the season wears on.” The big, bluff, black-haired boss of the Tigers, who formerly wielded an umpire’s indicator and whiskbroom, and w r ho knows about baseball from every angle, said that Detroit's lineup for April 11 would be not very different from that of last year. “But it will be a different team in every other respect,” said Moriarity. The Tigers have Van Gilder, a right-hander, who pitched for the Browns last year, and Chick Galloway, a utility infielder from the Athletics. AMUSEMENTS
