Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS -

. BY DANIEL Hew York World Telegram Sports Writer, •nbititotlnr for Joe Williams, who Is 111. NEW YORK, April 18.—They’re off at Jamaica today! A somewhat stereotyped line, but what a message to the thousands of New York turf followers who for many months have been forced to accept a vicarious enjoyment of racing from Agua Caliente to Havre De Grace in place of the real thing right out in their Long Island back yards. With the opening of the MetropUt&n Jockcv Club meeting, the Athletics due In the Yankee Stadium Sunday, while the Dodgers are entertaining the Phillies In. Flatbush and the Navy and Columbia rowing on the Harlem this evening. New York’s spring sport season goes Into full awing. Then, of course, there Is Camera reinstated and the real circus in the Garden. As the lolly hosses. with their merry defiance of the dope, again snort and pirouette In the paddock at Jamaica, we ilnd the hopes and attentions of turf devotees once more centered In the 3-year-olds, the flashing Juveniles of yestervear. The time was when the handicap division created tremendous Interest, but we seem to burn out our stars of the track In two seasons of competition. It was a couple of 3-year-olds— Gallant Vox and Whlchone—that made the 1930 campaign so dramatic and colorful. Close followers of the snort are sanguine that graduates of the futurity class this year will continue to furnish most of the zest and tone and fill the grandstands from Churchill Downs to Saratoga with cheering throngs. Eaulpolse. favorite In the Kentucky Derby; Jamestown. Mate, Twenty Grand. Vander Pool—they make a dashing array for the 3-ear-olds division, and out of their ranks may come a lurid rivalry to match that between Gallant Fox and Whlchone. Yes. they’re oIT at Jamaica, while Gallant Fox languishes In retirement. Wlchone hopes to come back strong despite those bad legs and fat old Man O’War munches the blue grass down In Kentucky and feels pretty sure he could return to-' day and run the rest of them bandylegged. a it a SPRINGTIME, with its lush grasses and sweet-smelling blossoms, its lads and lassies walking hand in hand through the park, its income taxes and Red Sox forecasting a climb out of the cellar, is a wonderful season for romance and the joy of living. But springtime also is the silly season. Witness the reinstatement of Primo Camera, the Venetian circus exhibit, who, I am told, is to be thrown into the ring at Ebbets Field with Jack Sharkey. The mutations of the local boxing situation are so mysterious as to defy sane analysis. Not so long ago all of us were told that Primo was persona non grata ground here. The solemn boxing commission liked neither his performance, so called, nor his connections and antecedents. Now he Is accepted as a member in good standing. Just what BUI Carey thinks about this I dare not report here accurately. It would have to be printed on asbestos. If I were Bill. I'd thank the boxing fates that the responsibility for Prlmo's appearance here with Sharkey has been thrown on other shoulders. Camera has yet to prove he Is -a real fighter. Those who saw him against Jim Maloney at Miami are Inclined to rate the Venetian carpenter In the same class with some of Rlngling's elephants. Primo Is big, but 1 one of John’s Pachyderms Is bigger. So we'll sit back nonchalantly—no doubt Bt the radio—and find out If a kangaroo can whip an elephant, fully convinced that gorilla could maul the two of them. u u a THE silly season has broken out in baseball, too. Last year the minors relied on night games to stir up the populace. Now, the minors are resorting to another feature to drag in the indifferent fan. Joe Engel, at Chattanooga, showed the way by signing Jackie Mitchell, the girl southpaw, and now it looks as if the game will be filled with sister acts. Taking its cue from Chattanooga. the Joplin club of the Western Association, has signed Vada Corbus, a femme catcher. Now watch out for others. r If Vada Is no better a catcher than Jackie Is a pitcher the Immortal batteries of Mathewson and Bresnahan, Brown and Kllng. and Kcvcn Ford and Sweeney, need have no fear of being erased from the list of the diamond's greats. First thing you know, nil those lassies who used to march on Hollywood for fame in the movies, will congregate at the stadium and the Polo Grounds for baseball trials.

The two clubs, winner and runner-up, respectively, in the 1930 race and Joint favorites in the current campaign, have set a fast pace in j

early games and a clean-cut triumph in the present j series would give the winner a flying start toward the 1931 pennant.

St. Louis now is tied with Boston for first place In the senior loop, with three victories and no defeats against the Cincinnati Reds.

a 6-5 victory, while he hit another one Friday with two men on base to give him team a 5-4 win. In Friday’s game, Hornsby's clever handling of pitchers broke up j a Pittsburgh rally with the tying and winning runs on base in the ninth , inning. With Guy Bush faltering he took him out and sent in Lester Sweetland, a southpaw, to pitch to two left-handed batters. Then he derricked Sweetland for Bob Smith, who had beaten the Pirates in the second game, and who again stopped them. It was Hornsby himself who scampered back of second to take Comorosky’s grounder and throw him out to end the game. Veteran Stars Shine In the Cubs’ first four games, Kiki Cuyler, Riggs Stephenson, Lester Bell and Gabby Hartnet starred for their new boss. Stephenson batted .538; Cuyler, .429; Bell, .385, and Hartnett, .308. Hack Wilson and Charley Grimm were in a batting slump. Wilson made only two hits for a .167 average in the clean up position; Grimm’s batting average was .071. During the Pittsburgh series the Cubs played to almost 100,000 persons, including 20,000 women on ladies’ day Friday. St. Louis was idle Friday, being rained out at Cincinnati, in the only other scheduled major league game. The Cards have gained confidence in their sweep of the Cincinnati series and expect to continue their success against the Cubs.

TUESDAY night’s feature at the Armory will bring together two local pugs in a rivalry battle that is arousing a lot of interest among the fans. Tracy Cox is to resume his ring wars with Marvin (Kid) Woods, after an interval of about two years. When both boys were fighting in prelims, they met four times, and Woods has a slight advantage in the scoring, having whipped Cox twice and fought him a draw. Since their last meeting, Cox has fought in numerous main events in local rings, but Woods, for some reason or other, has been compelled to do his stuff in semiwindups here, although topping cards in various clubs of the middle west and in Florida and Cuba. There will be a weight advantage of three or four pounds in Cox’s favor.

If the car is as successful In the Indianapolis run, another 16-cylin-der motor—identical in every detail —will immediately be built, installed in a large chassis and an attempt to establish anew straightaway record will be made. If that is successful, the two motors will be place in a boat. Cantlon will be the pilot in all speed attempts. The announcement of the new motor has caused some furrowed brows in the automobile racing camp here. Usually predictions of sensational cars “being built’’ cause a cnuckle among the pilots. But Miller, a conservative, is regarded as a genius of engineering, and Cantlon a daring driver, is capable. The car will be a rear wheel drive but will have many innovations of body and chassis.

Tribesmen Take on Kelley’s Pastimers Millers Move In as Saints Depart, and Will Battle Indians Through Monday; Corridenites Are Nosed Out in Friday Struggle. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor With the pesky Saints out of town, the Indians looked forward to better luck today as they opened a three-game series with Mike Kelley's Millers just up from Louisville where the champion Colonels took them for three out of four. The new race, therefore, finds Louisville and St. Paul sharing the early lead, each with three victories and one defeat. Manager Corriden planned to use Mike Cvengros on the mound this afternoon, the veteran southpaw having been given a rest all through the opening series with the Apostles. The Millers are scheduled here through Monday and will be followed by Milwaukee and Kansas City. It was an exciting finish at the ball park Friday as the Tribe rallied and compelled the visitors to change pitchers in the ninth, Huck Betts relieving Jess Bream to check the belated attack of the home nine. The final count was 6to 5, with the Indians using three pinch hitters and three pinch runners in the ninth to score two markers. The Corridenites Rad a runner on first when the game-ending out was made, a fly by Fitzgerald to Durst.

An eighth inning Tribe rally was good for one run and with any kind of hitting on the part of Walker and Koenecke another tally would have been registered in that session. Fitzgerald was on third and McCann on first with only one down, but were left stranded when Walker popped to Morrissey and Koenecke flied to Davis. It was a case of two of Corriden’s dependable lefthanded swatters falling down in a pinch. Pence Out in Seventh Russell Pence, the new addition to the Tribe mound staff, stood up under the Saints’ attack until the seventh when errors and hits put the Northmen on their way, Bill Burwell relieving. Cedric Durst crashed a home run in the third and Hopkins, Paschal and Roettger were others who were poison to the home pastimers. Paschal pilfered second twice, chiefly because Tom Angley had an offday with his salary wing. An eror by Lind at second touched off the St. Paul tnree-run rally in the seventh. • Finally Get to Bream Bream, former International League righthander, was pounded for two runs In the third and then settled until the eighth when he started to wilt. In the ninth Narlesky beat out a hit, Bonura batted for Lind and singled, Wolfe ran for Bonura, Angley forced Wolfe, Smith ran for Angley and Clyde Barnhart batted for Burwell and singled scoring Narlesky. The Saints hurriedly went Into a huddle and Bream was taken out and Betts took up the pitching. Charlie Dorman batted for Montague and barely missed poling a home run, the sphere coming down as Davis backed against the left field fence to make the catch. The long fly scored Smith and the struggle closed as Fitz lifted a looper to Durst.

Owner Norman A. Perry of the Indians was host at a baseball dinner at the Columbia Club Friday night and among the guests were three National League umpires. Charlie Moran, Ted McGrew and George Magerkurth. Each gave a short talk on various branches of sport. Moran is the former coach of Centre college and Texas A. and M.
