16 MAJOR LEAGUE CONTENDERS PARADE TO POST

300,000 to See First j Day Frays Elaborate Ceremonies Usher, in 1930 Campaign Today. BY FRANK GFTTV t’nltrd Pr*ss Sports Fditor NEW YORK. April 15.—Sixteen major league ball clubs parade their 1930 contenders today in the grand and glorious opening of the baseball season. Shortly after the parades. the two major pennant races will be on. with every one optimistic. Whatever could be accomplished during the training period in sunny climes has been done, and from now on down to the decisive battles of next September it will be a case of survival of the fittest. The experts have picked the pennant winners of 1929, the Philadelphia 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 j the flag race figures to be quite as j close as usual, the New York Giants, j Pittsburgh Pirates. St. Louis Card- j inals and even the erstwhile lowly ! Brooklyn Robins are counted upon j to provide stern opposition for the champions of 1929. Athletics Heavy Choice Astride the American League, + he world champion Philadelphia club stands like a colossus, but the New’ York Yankees. Cleveland Indians and Detroit Tigers have served notice that they refuse to be written out of the race. Bands will play, pennants will be hoisted and first balls tossed out more or less inaccurately in eight major league cities about midafternoon. Already the Boston Red Sox, having defeated the Washington Senators in a game which anticipated the season’s opening at the national capital Monday, are out in front with a perfect average of | 1.000 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. Sectional Rivals Clash 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, w’here the flags emblematic of the championship of the American League and of the world will be raised with appropriate music. The Senators go up to Boston, the Indians are at Chicago as guests of the White Son, while the St. Louis Browns open in Detroit. Approximately 300,000 fans will witness the opening games afternoon, while the number whicn will follow’ the progress of the season’s inaugural by radio, scoreboard and newspapers can not be estimated.

Costly Blow By United Prrxx CHICAGO. April 15.—Pete Wistort. Chicago heavyweight whose knockout record is becoming impressive, resolved today to confine his milling to the prize ring. As he walked down the street with $9 in his pocket, a would-be robber accosted him. Wistort grabbed the gun and belted the stickup man on the jaw to save the $9. But Wistort’s hand was broken and the amount he saved by the blow’ meant little to him today as he canceled his bouts for the next few weeks.

California Probes Win by Camera Italian Behind on Points When Foe's Seconds Toss Towel. By I’nitcd Prcnr SAN FRANCISCO. April 15.~The hollow victory of Pnmo Camera, Italy’s challenger for the heavyweight championship, over Leon iBombo) Chevalier at Oakland. Cal.. Monday night, will be investigated by the California athletic commission today or Wednesday. Charles Traung, commissioner with jurisdiction over northern California, announced today that purses of the tw’o fighters had been held up. Traung said he doubted if many mysterious angles surrounding sudden termination of the bout in the sixth round when Camera was behind on points would be cleared up until principals in the affair had been interrogated. Chevalier, a giant Negro, who looked small alongside Camera, had taken a nine-count, but was standing on his feet and fighting valiently when one of his seconds threw a towel into the ring after two minutes and fifteen seconds of fighting in the sixth round. “Chevalier appeared to have something w’rong with his eye, but I do not know’ the reason for Chevalier’s second throwing the towel into the ring,” Traung said. DEMPSEY BOUT SOUGHT SAN FRANCISCO. April 15.—An offer of $750 000 for a bout between Jack Dempsey and Camera was anounced today by William P. Kyne, prominent San Francisco sportsman. The anouncement followed a conference between Kyne and Gene Ncrmile, former business manager of Dempsey.
