Talking It Over BY lOE WILLIAMS
ST. PETERSBURG Fla,. March 19.—The kingly Athletics were playing the lowly Braves. Mr Connie Mack sat in a box back of the home plate, a lank, gaunt figure. and hatless. There was no score card in his hand. The big league games count in the standings. The spring games don't. That is the obvious answer. , Sitting with him was Mrs. Mack, an •■lorrlv. be-soectaeled woman, upoarentlv keenly interested in the activities oi the nlavers as the veteran strategian himself. She seems to know all the olavers. all the olavs. and. as the bo vs sav. all the answer*. The Braves are having batting practice. Bank Oowdv is hitting them out to ihe infield. Rabbit Maranville for the first time of the vrar, is at shortstop picking un sharp hoppers and tossing the ball around. Dick Rudolph Is showing a voung niteher Carleton. a movement to first base in keen the runner close to the bag. Mr. Mark looks out upon the scene. ' Thev sav time flies but I am not so sure." he savs. "This is mv fortv-nlnth spring trio and vet. the picture does not look so • wfullv strange to me. There is Oowdv. He looks as voung as ever. There Is Marnvllle. still a great shortston. and there Is Rudolph. I don't know whether he still can pitch but he doesn’t seem to have changed much." u a a MR. MACK lapsed into a reflective silence. It was easy to guess that his thoughts rolled jack to the 1914 world series with he Braves, when Gowdy, Maranville and Rudolph created the most spectacular upset in the history of baseball. That was, as everybody knows, when the Braves beat, the Athletics four straight games to win the championship. Mr. Mack began to reminiscence. "I ossn't surprised that we were beaten." he said. “In fact, I was somewhat surprised that. we ever won the American League championship. I don't, know whether you know it or not but I quit on my team In August. “That was the year of the Federal League war. Practically every man on the team had an Inviting offer to jump. Half of them wanted to Jump, the other half seemed content. This created a bad situation, the morale of the club was completely broken. I was at a loss what to do about it. 1 finally gave up. We used to have daily meetings I discontinued them. How long? Well, for quite a long time. One day the leaders of the two factions came to me the Red Sox had begun to press us pretty close -and asked - me to resume the daily meetings. Naturally I did. "It was evidence enough that all the players were determined to win the championship, and of course, they did. It was a simple trick for them—they were the best team in the league. A number of reasons have been advanced why I broke up that. club, the most popular of which was that it lacked color and didn't draw at. the gate. I will admit it didn’t draw at the gate and that it lacked color. But no team could have drawn ; In those turbulent days. I don't think I color is important in a hail club. A win- j ning team will always furnish a sufficient i amount, of color.
B B B “ r r''HE fact is I was very proud l of that team and I think it could have gone on to remarkable achievements. I broke it up solely because the boys had shown me the year before that they could not get along together. In short, that team was broken up by the team itself.” This recalled to mv mind a storv I had ■written last season that Mr. Mack planned 1o wreck his present championship team, winner of three straight pennants, in much the same manner, as he had wrecked the 1314 team. In mv storv I had Grove going one place. Parnshaw another. Simmons to Saginaw and Cochrane to Oatmeal. Okla. It develops that I was a trifle cockeyed. The Athletics will take the field, so Mr. Mack tells me with the same lineup they shot in aea’nst the Cardinals in the world scries, which means Cochrane will be behind the bat. Foxx at first. Bishop at second. Williams al short. Dvkes at third and Miller. Haas and Simmons in the outfield. That, was lust a nine dream of yours, commented Mr. Mack. How wrong the old guv is. I smoke cubcbs. TECH IS WINNER Eight, teams, remaining contenders for the 1932 Indiana High School Athletic Association basketball championship, opened action this morning at the Butler fieldhouse which will narrow the field to two by night and bring to a close the great three-week elimination grind. Four games this morning reduced the field to four and two semi-final tests this afternoon further eliminated contenders. The two survivors battle it out at 8 tonight for the supremacy of Hoosier interscholastic netdorn. Eight, games Friday narrowed the field and today the remaining contenders were Cicero. Newcastle, Greencastle, Connersville, Winamac, Lebanon, Bosse of Evansville and Technical of Indianapolis. They met each other in that order this morning. f Tech Whips Bulldogs • Smashing through with a great 33 to 21 victory over Columbus, Friday night. Tim Campbell’s Indianapolis Tech five presented themselves to the 13,000 who looked on as a real contender for the title they were runnersup for in 1929. ‘Lead by Edwards, giant center, the local lads set the pace all the way, holding a 15 to 10 margin at the half. Columbus was surprised at the local team pla, and with Edwards getting the tip-off and Huston playing a big part in keeping possession of the ball, Tech had things its own way throughout. Even Huston, who rarely takes a shot, was in his prime Friday night and he looped in four field baskets to joint, with Edward’s six and account for twenty points. Hathaway Tops Scorers Hathaway took down scoring honors for Columbus with three field baskets, while Golden played fine ball at back guard. Gladden and Gauker also put up strong defensive games for the green, and J. Townsend pastimed in his usual sparkling form. Basse of Evansville was another surprise team of the evening and the down starters unleashed a strong attack to nose Michigan City, 25 to 21. It was a battle of renters. Janz of Michigan City and Butlerworth of Basse. Janz captured five field baskets and Batter worth three. But Bosse had a red-hot forward. Osborne, and he cave his team the victory margin. A ball hawk and a splendid shot, he gtahered in six field baskets and one foul line tass for a total of 13 points, half of his team total. In a late afternoon game, Winamac surprised the fans with a heavy* scoring attack to defeat Bluffton, 48 to 30. Emshwilier of Bluffton gathered in eight field buckets and Shank of Winamac, seven. Reder of Winamac, big center. reevaled much power in the half he played getting four baskets. In a hair raising finish, Lebanon nosed out Delphi and remained m the chase for the title. The Tigers were ahead 17 to 8 at the half but Delphi outscored them 9 to 6 In the third quarter and made a mad rush in the last period to get 12 points and come to within 2 points of a tie. Whiteman, who had starred throughout the game for Dlphi. had an opportunity to tie the count with two free throws in s
TRIBE TAKES ON CARDS AFTER NOSING OUT YANKS >• * I
Berly, Campbell Get Hurling Assignments Hoosiers Seek Revenge for Recent One-Run Loss to Champs: Bedore’s Single in Ninth Gives Indians 6-to-5 Decision Over Yankees. BY EDDIE ASH Time* Snort Editor SARASOTA, Fla., March 19.—Bristling with confidence as a result of their 6 to 5 victory over the New York Yankees Friday, the Indians of Emmet McCann were in a determined frame of mind today as they tuned up to tackle the world champion St. Louis Cardinals in Sarasota this afternoon. The Tribesmen were nosed-out by the Cards last Tuesday, 6 to 5. and the Hoosicr pastimers had a hunch they were due to even up matters with Gabby Street’s title bearers in this second clash. John Berly and Archie Campbell, both experienced righthanders were slated to do mound duty for the American Association aggregation with the former going five innings and the latter four, if both flingers live up to advance reports on spring physical condition Johnny Riddle was billed to go the full nine innings as catcher the same assignment carried out by Tom Angley against the Yankees Friday. The other change in the lineup was expected to see Manager McCann serve at the first sack, at least for a few innings.
Owner Norman Perry was tickled over the early record established by his Indians as he departed from training camp Friday night on a short fishing trip to the Florida east j coast. Tribe Record Strong In three exhibition tilts, the Tribe gained a, tie with the Philadelphia Athletics, last to the St. Nationals by a one-run margin and | came from behind to upset the New York Yankees. It is an achievement worth boasting about when the class of the opposition is figured. The Indians came through with an oid-fashioned Garrison finish to annex the laurels Friday. Johnny Cooney weakened in the ninth against the Yankees and, aided by three bases on balls, they slapped him for two runs and the lead, 5 to 4. It looked like curtains for the Hoosiers, but the base-hit boys came to the rescue in the pinch. Fitzgerald touched off the Tribe ninth with a single and Rosenberg popped out. Sigafoos poked a long onebaser to right and Fitzgerald pulled up at third. White followed with a ; single to score Fitzgerald with the tying run and Sigafoos raced to | third. Bedore Hits Third Kroner batted for Cooney and there was no base running as Chapman gloved the sphere in short left. This brought up Fred Bedore, star utility infielder who is making a courageous fight to land a regular berth. Fred was a shining light J already with a triple and single, but he glorified himself further by dumping a single in short center to register Sigafoos with the winning run. Bedore was a thorn for the big leaguers and played a dandy game in the field as well as being top hitter of the day for the Indians, fact of the matter, Fred looked good enough to impress Manager McCar.n J with the theory that after all his ! utility mainstay may keep going j and push himself on to the hot | corner. White Shows Improvement Ray White, rookie shortstopper. was another important cog in the Tribe victory. He improved both at bat and in the field over previous performances and crowded Bedore for high honors on the innerworks during the afternoon. Jonah Goldman, regular short fielder, ~was held out of action. Wingard, Thomas and Cooney operated on the Tribe mound Friday and the first named stacked up as best of the trio. He held the Yankees to one run and four hits in three innings. Hormidas Aube, young righthander from the Albany <N. Y.) team, held the Hoosiers to one run and three hits in five innings and brought cheers from the Yankee bench. Bedore and White were the only Indians able to solve the youth. Murphy Embarrassed Johnny Murphy, with the champion St. Paul Saints last year, took up the Yankee hurling in the sixth and the Tribesmen greeted their former league enemy with a c uster of thrpe runs. Lowell launched the attack against Murphy with a triple after one down and a double by Walker, singles by Fitzgerald and Rosenberg and fumble by Hoag combined to make it an embarrassing start for Murphy. DEMPSEY SCORES K. 0. Jack Draws 512,000 Gale In Two Huntington Scraps. j S>/ 1 niti'd Press HUNTINGTON, W. Va.. March 19.—Jack Dempsey scored a technical knockout over one opponent and outpointed another in his exhibition here Friday night, which, incidentally drew a 512.000 gate, establishing a Huntington record. The former heavyweight champion floored Billy Miles, Huntington heavyweight., five times in the first round, but Jack Kerns of Charleston. W. Va., exchanged punches willingly and lasted the two rounds. WOLGAST. PANCHO SIGN : By l nilrd Press > HONOLULU, T. H., March 19. Midget Wclgast of Philadelphia, claimant to the flyweight title, was matched today for a ten-round bout with Little Pancho. brother of the j late Pancho Villa, here next Saturday night. * | j ; j the last few seconds but missed both. Tiger Cubs Threats Greencastle made themselves a strong favorite with the fans Friday afternoon when they cut loose with a dazzling passing attack to smother Columbia City, 32 to 19. and big McAnally and his teammates, Hurst and Stone, tossed them in with regularity. The big upset of the first day' play was the downfall of the mighty i Vincennes team at the hands of J Cicero, 17 to 15, and it was brought about principally because Vincennes looked past that game to a pros-1 pectlve battle this morning with Newcastle. They started out under wraps and when Cirero hung right on and Vincennes wanted to pull out in front the Alices couldn’t get started. Newcastle had to show power to defeat Seymour. 25 to 20. and Connersville had little to spare in their game with Wiley of Terre Haute, whom they eliminated 20 to 17.
Tribe Gossip
BY EDDIE ASH SARASOTA, Fla., March 19. Ruth, Yankee home-run king, played until the ninth inning against the Indians Friday when he walked and gave way to Hill to run for him. The big Bam contributed one hit and a walk while taking it easy. Crossetti was the allaround star for the major league nine. He proved a phenom in the field and collected two singles a double and walk at the plate. His defensive play was marvelous. Hoag walloped four hits in five trips to lead the Yankee attack. When Babe Ruth came up for the first time against the Indians Friday he hit a tall fly off of Wingard that traveled to the distant center field corner where Fitzgeraid caught up with it after a long sprint. In the third inning Ruth handcuffed Lowell at first with a sizzling grounder that nearly knocked the Tribe Rookie first sacker back into right field. u n n a galle T y of his own on the hnvc rP L L en . ce ’ wh ere about fifty small ™Hi P hed t 0 watch him.

50-1 Shot Wins Chase Forbra Finishes in Front of Eight Finishers in British Classic. By United Press AINTREE. Liverpool, England, March 18.—Forbra, an outsider, won the Grand National steeplechase today in a heart-breaking race in which favorites went down one by one in the grueling grind. Egremont was second and Shaun Goilin, 1930 winner, was third. Only eight jumpers of the thirtysix starters finished. The treacherous turns and jumps took their toll as a crowd of more than 300,000 shouted hysterically for their choices. The winner, a 50 to 1 outsider, owned by W. Parsonage, and carrying bottom weight of 147 pounds, was well up almost from the start, fencing cleanly and avoiding the jams at the turns. Near East, another outsider, finished fourth. Sea Soldier, son of Man O’War and one of the chief American hopes, ran a good race and managed to finish. Thereas and Annandale also completed the course. The choices in the betting came to grief in rapid succession, while the stands and the dense crowds around the course shouted their dismay. Heartbreak Hill and Grakle started joint favorites- at 100 to 12, but Grakle refused after nearly completing the first circuit and Heartbreak Hill, owned by Mrs. C. S.
