BIG LEAGUES OPEN INTERSECTIONAL COMPETITION

Giants Gain Top When Bucs Lose Athletics Hammer Four Tiger Hurlers for 19 to 2 Triumph. Bn United Press NEW YORK. My 2—Washington s Senators and the New York Giants, two teams given little consideration as pennant contenders in preseason predictions, were leading the major leagues today as the sixteen clubs settled down to intersectional competition. The Giants slipped into first place Thursday as the Pittsburgh Pirates dropped a 4 to 3 decision to the Boston Braves in the National League’s only scheduled game. The defeat was the third in a row for the Pirates, who previously had won seven consecutive games. Washington acquired the American League lead by hanging up an eight game winning streak, including four victories over the world champion Philadelphia Athletics who lost only one other game in sectional competition. The Athletics opened east-west competition in the only American League contest Thursday by walloping the Detroit Tigers, 19 to 2. Lefty Grove pitched in masterful style, limiting the Tigers to seven scattered blows while his mates bettered their batting marks with eighteen safeties off Sorrell, Sullivan, Samuels and Page. Jimmy Foxx and Max Bishop led the attack with two homers each and A1 Simmons also hit for the circuit. Home runs decided the issue in the Braves-Pirates game. Berger hit two homers for the Braves and Neun hit a homer, double and single in three times up. The victory enabled the Braves to take undisputed possession of third place. The New York Yankees and the Cincinnati Reds have been the major “flops” of the early season. Shawkey’s club was rated stronger than the team which the late Miller Huggins guided into second place last season, but to date they have won only three of eleven starts. Cincinnati expected great things of Dan Howley, who built the St. Louis Browns into a pennant contender but the addition of Bob Meusel and Harry Heilmann, veteran American League sluggers and Tony Cuccinello, rookie third baseman, failed to provide the expected batting punch and the Reds are holding down the National League cellar.

—Washington Park ChatterBY EDDIE ASH

A BRILLIANT running catch by Ollie Bejma near the left field foul line produced the game-ending out Thursday and it was made at the expense of Lefty O'Doul with two Phillies on the paths. Howard Freigau was the author of a spectacular catch of a long foul struck off by Hurst in the eighth, the Tribe third sacker going down near the player gate for the sphere. a a a Paul Wolfe, playing second in place of Sicking, took a hit away from Sigman in the second by turning in a superb onehanded stop far to his left and back on the grass. a a a Manager Corriden rested several regulars and in addition to starting with a rookie battery, Hildebrand and Lorbeer. he used Wolfe at second, Connolly at short and Bejma in left. Playing the part of spectators were regulars Barnhart, Warstler. Sicking, Sprinz and Crouse. a a a THE fans lost no time in riding the major leaguers and cackled to them about the close-in fences at Philadelphia. The wind was against right field home run hitting here Thursday, but when O’Doul popped to Wolfe back of second in the seventh, some wag shouted: “Home run in Philadelphia!” It got a laugh out of both dugouts. a a a The burgomaster of Belleville, Dutch Hoffman, got in much leg work chasing arial drives by the Phillies and was some distance out when he finally caught up with McCurdy's tremendous clout in the ninth. a a a Lorbeer uncorked a whistling throw to Freigau to nail Thompson stealing in the third stanza. a a a IT wasn't “all in fun.” For example, Fred Hunter. Philly coach, kept baiting the umpires, the Philly infielders squawked on close plays and once when the visitors thought the plate umpire made a mistake on a Connolly bunt that rolled foul, the bench warmers piled out of the dugout and the entire infield charged in to bellow disapproval until Catcher McCurdy corrected them. a a a The umpires were McCleaster and Jones, local semi-pro arbiters. a a a Wolfe sent a line drive at Whitney in the first and Monahan streaked a sharp one to Klein In the second. The miscue charged against Klein was a fumble of Koenecke’s single in the fat fifth. o ft o THE famous old vet, Grover Cleveland Alexander, pitched in batting practice a short time and old Cy Williams betted for Smythe in the ninth and singled to right. a a a In the sixth inning, with Hurst on second. he tried for third after Bejma captured Thevenow's long fly and was doubled up when Ollie cut loose with a line throw to Connolly. HEARTY approval of the exhibition was given by the crowd owing to the fact that the Phillies used their regular lineup, with the

SOX SECOND SACKER CREDITS BUSH WITH IMPROVING BATTING ‘Donie Showed Me a Few Points and It Has Helped a Lot,’ Says Bill Cissell, Now Leading American League at Plate; Added Weight Also Helps. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 2—Bill Cissell, Chicago White Sox second baseman, who was leading the American League in batting today with an average of .432, attributes his new pow’er to suggestions from Manager Donie Bush and better physical condition. Cissell has batted safely in every one of the ten games played this season by the White Sox and has made nineteen hits in forty-four times at bat and scored eight runs. “I expect to have my greatest season in the bis leagues,” said Cissell, “because I am in the best physical condition of my life. I am twenty pounds heavier than last season, now weighing 170.

“I have always been able to hit, but I never hit my stride with the White Sox until this season. Donie Bush showed me a few points and it has helped me a lot. “Bush Greatest Ever” “I never had the confidence in myself that I have this season and I attribute that to Donie Bush. He’s the greatest manager I ever played under.” Shifted from shortstop to second base by Bush this season, Cissell seems to have found himself and promises to live up to the reputation he showed when the White Sox bought him from the Portland Pacfic Coast League club In 1928 for $123,000—575,000 in cash and players valued at $48,000. “I don’t expect to continue hitting anything like .400,” said Cissell, “but I’ll finish the season hitting well over .300.” Out of Cavalry Six years ago, Cissell was in the United States cavalry stationed at Ft. Des Moines, when the Des Moines Western League club bought his release for SBO. He .batted .345 for Des Moines and was sold to Portland for $13,000, a reported record minor league price at that time. After batting .323 with Portland in 1927, Cissell was purchased by the Sox, but was a comparative failure the last two seasons, batting .260 in 1928 and .280 in 1929. SILVERN STOPS HOGAN P>u United Press PORTLAND, t Ore., May 2.—Jack Silvern, 170, Portland, knocked out Tommy Hogan, 165, Toledo, 0., in the first round of a scheduled ten round bout here Thursday night. In another ten-round mix, Ivan Laffineur, 157, of France, wen a decision over Jimmy Dolan, 150, Portland.

exception of center field. Big league ball players love their base hits even in an exhibition game. Numerous fans shouted to Ambrose to walk O'Doul in the ninth to load the bases to bring up Chuck Klein again, but in organized baseball, every game is a contest. O’Doul tried hard enough to get a long hit, but the ambitious Bejma, Tribe rookie, turned on the speed and came through with a dazzling catch to end the game. a a a Admirers of Tommy Thevenow, Ihe Madison (Ind.) youth, were delighted with his appearance and form. He had a bad accident in the spring of 1929, but he battled ahead with the old Madison spirit and the young man is the real class at shortstop. Previous to the 1929 accident he sustained a broken leg. Thevenow is a treat to glimpse in a fielding way and his arm is powerful and true. a a a President Norman Perry and Secretary William Clauer of the Indians left here Thursday to attend the night tilt at Des Moines. It is presumed they will consider the advisability of introducing the nocturnal pastime here later in the season if the Des Moines experiment is successful. MANUAL NINE BEATEN Manual, defeated by Washington, 10 to 9. on their home field Thursday, opposed Silent Hoosiers at the latter's diamond today. Froelich and Schock formed the battery. Bright and Schock were on the firing line Thursday. Bright struck out fourteen, but allowed thirteen hits, while his mates committed six errors. Manual gathered six extra base hits and Washington two. LOCAL HEAVIES SIGN Two local heavyweights have been signed to meet in the semi-final attraction of the weekly mat card at Tomlinson hall next Monday night. Ed Baker will take on John Bartee for one fall or thirty minutes. The main event, which is also in the heavy class, will bring togeher Cowboy Jones, Wyoming, and Ralph Wilson in a return bout. Two falls out of three will decide the winner. CHOCOLATE HURTS HANDS Bn United Press NEW YORK, May 2.—The Wol-gast-Genaro fight has been advanced to May 16, with the Chocolate-La Barba contest, originally scheduled on that date, being postponed until May 28. The postponement was made at the request of Chocolate, who injured his hands in a recent fight at Toronto. MY SULLIVAN VICTOR ST. PAUL.

A blood vessel was ruptured in Shires’ back, but the cause of the trouble was not learned until Thursday. Catcher Moe Berg, who has been out of the lineup for weeks with an injured knee, may join the White Sox here, Manager Donie Bush said today.

Oral Hildebrand, former Butler collegian, set the crowd goofy in the first inning when he struck out Fresco Thompson, Frank O’Doul and Klein, the top three of the Philly batting order. Thompson looked at the third strike, but both O'Doul and Klein breezed swinging. It was a remarkable feat for a rookie to fan three of baseball’s best, including O’Doul, 1929 National League batting champion, and Home Run King Klein. “Hilde” also, whiffed McCurdy in the fifth. Oral hurled five innings and then gave way to Ambrose, after being struck on the pitching arm by a thrown ball in the last half of the fifth. The three runs scored off Hildebrand in the fifth represented the Phillies’ run total for the afternoon, for Ambrose blanked ’em the remainder of the way, allowing five hits. Eight safeties were obtained off Oral. The Indians smacked the ball freely and timely and staged a whale of a rally in the fifth by getting six runs on nine hits. Seven consecutive singles were clicked off by the home nine before the Phillies got anybody. Eleven hitters went to the plate and Pete Monahan smote two hits. Lefty Smythe took up the Philly pitching in the sixth and was touched for one run in the eighth.

Austin Loses Place on Cup Tennis Squad Bn United Press LONDON, May 2.—Great Britain's prospects of reaching the interzone finals in Davis Cup competition today were materially weakened by the unexplained action of the English Lawn Tennis Association in dropping H. W. (Bunny) Austin from the international squad. Charles Kingsley, a member of the 1926 Davis cup team, was named to fill the vacancy. Austin has been on every Davis Cup team since 1926 and has scored victories over the leading European and American players. Although no explanation was made it was generally believed Austin was dropped because of the lack of stamina he has displayed in recent matches.
