the Davis cup doubles, Allison already has made a strong bid for a singles berth by pounding through all opposition to beat Vines at New Orleans and Pinehurst. The spectacular Texan strengthened this bid Friday by eliminating lanky Francis X. Shields, 6-2, 6-2, 6-1. Shields was intended as the No. 2 singles man on the Davis cup team when the original selection was made. Vines and Shields were to play in the singles and Allison and John Van Ryn of Philadelphia were to take the doubles. Vines gained the final Friday by defeating Dr. Eugene McCauliff of Yonkers, N. Y., in straight sets, 8-6, 6- 6-4. The big upset of the tournament came in the semi-finals of the men’s doubles, when Marcel Rainville, Canadian Davis cup star, and McCauliff, defeated Allison and Van Ryn, national doubles champions, 4-6, 6-4, 6-3. Vines and Shields won the other doubles semi-final, eliminating J. Gilbert Hall and Gregory Mangin, national indoor champion, 6-2, 5-7, 7Miss Virginia Hilleary of Philadelphia succeeded Mrs. Van Ryn as woman's singles champion by defeating the latter, 6-3, 1-6, 9-7, in the final.
Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
YORK, April 23.—“ Up the river we will row, row, row”— Not If you are bright. We held a symposium in the office not so long ago on the subject of sports in relations to brain requirements and when all the votes were tabulated these three sports trailed the list: 1— Marathon running. 2 Wrestling. 3 Rowing. Which is bo say that if you aspired to I greatness as a marathon runner, a wrestler or an oarsman you didn't necessarily have to be a class leader. On the contrary, the implication was that it would be much better if you weren't There can be little question but that marathon running demands little more of its exponents than a strong back and a weak mind, as the fellow savs. I mean what do you need but condition and time on your hands to run twenty-six miles' Certainly brains don’t figure very importantly, if at all. A smart guy would take the subway. j Wrestling at least demand? a knowledge ! aPd , h?w to apply them. I am speaking oi legitimate wrestling, not the sublimated acrobatics that has come (o pass for wrestling in the last three years. But apparently anybody can be a wrestler who can make iunny faces and groan. A few days ago Jack Curley learned that Cemun- Milstead, the old Yale footballer "*,* of ork ' Curle y gave Milstead a P al £ f lon ? drawer s. had his picture taken a n I L. pip t in knots and presto! championship^ 6 " challenl ' for the world I once suggested to Dick Giendon. the Columbia coach, that rowing seemed a stupid form of sport. Giendon was properly offended. The whole Giendon family had been weaned on oars. With great patience he detailed the many requirements an oarsman had to meet. I dVt recall them all at the moment but when Giendon a , d flnished ?. r . ealized why Einstein had made a *crew a ** V He c °uld never have , ( o „^ s t a ' n 1 tUI insist that the only br *fht man in any boat Is the coxswain. He gets a nice ride for himself f.'cry day and doesn’t do any work. a. tnat he could have a lot more fun if he took a mandolin along. * * tt SPEAKING of rowing—and that’s what I intended to speak of from the beginning, Giendon took his crew to Annapolis Friday to row the Navy in Columbia’s first serious test of the year. It was the first time in several years Giendon did not meet a Navy crew coached bv his dad. The elder Giendon called it a career last ■ ummci after putting over a surprise winThi' k 1 Po, Jghkeepsie. When he stood in the bow of his launch and watched the Navy shell cross the line in front he literally decided to rest on his oars. It must have been a gratifying win for him. too. All >ear the critics had been saying that the old man had lost his punch Navy came here to race Columbia last jear on the Harlem and voung Glendon's crew won. The victory provoked a dramatic family scene. Young Glendon’s sister had come down from Boston to see the race. You can imagine her mixed emotions. No matter what happened she would have been disappointed. After the race she sobbed. "Why didn’t you let dad win. \ou know he wanted to so badly" But a few weeks later dad won a miich greater race. PETROLLE HOLDS OUT Farfgo Battler Asks Higher Price to Tackle Battaiino. By United Press CHICAGO, April 23.—Nate Lewis, Chicago stadium matchmaker, said today he had not yet closed negotiations for the return match between Billy Petrolle, Fargo (S. D.) junior welterweight, and Bat Battaiino, Hartford, Conn., former featherweight champion, for a tenround bout in mid-May.

BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Pre* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 23.—The man was eating when I arrived but he said never mind that, for me to go ahead and sit down and what did I want? So I said. “Mister Mack, where are your Athletics going this year, if anywhere? Is Grove as good as ever, is Foxx back in stride, has Mickey Cochrane slumped, when are you going to get your infield set, how about Coleman and Williams, and aren't the Cards taking a sweet kicking around?” This outburst sorta took his breath and he looked at me as if he thought I might be a trifle crazy. But after a deep swig of orange juice he started in to answer all the questions. “Well,” Mack began, “we aren’t going to win any pennants by thirteen games this year. We idn’t have any license to do that last year, for we didn’t have that good a club. Winning by any games at all is going to be pretty tough this season. Don’t those Yankees look mean? Especially that Babe Ruth. My, my, my, son, that man scares me every time he goes to bat. Even when he strikes out he still scares me.
Tribe in Second Place as Brewers Are Faced BY EDDIE ASH Pushed in the face by the Kansas City Cowboy Blues Friday. 7 to 2, the Indians took an inventory over night and discovered thefr stock is running low on base hits with men on bases and on control pills for pitchers. The home nine lost the league lead as the Kaws clawed out a decisive triumph to obtain an even break in the brief series of two battls. Frank O’Rourke’s Milwaukee Brewers landed in town today for four tilts with the Hoosiers and a glimpse at the A. A. standing indicates that the Cream City pastimers are up and eoming. Asa matter of fact, the Brewers are in third place and the series beginning today will mean a lot to the Tribesmen before they leave for a long journey on the road. John Berly, right-hander, is slated to do the chucking for the Indians today, with action starting at 2:30. The Sunday contest also will get under way at that time. The Brewers will be here through Tuesday, after which the Tribe will depart and remain away from Perry stadium until May 22. The first road tilt will be at Milwaukee next Thursday, w r ith Wednesday an off day.
The K. C. Blues collected seven | runs Friday before the men of McCann crossed the plate. In the first inning three w r alks, one hit and two errors marred the proceedings and two markers were chalked up for the enemy in rapid time. Joe Heving opened on the Tribe mound and was wild. He passed the first two hitters and went to three-and-two on Grisby, who singled. Off to Bad Start Heving was jerked and Berly Horne took up the Tribe flinging. Pick got a life when Hale dropped his foul and then popped to Angley. Horne fanned Boken, Moslof walked and Goldman booted Dunlap’s j grounder. The inning ended when Phillips struck out. The bad start discouraged the Tribesmen and! they were unable to muster much of i an attack throughout the game. Joe Dawson, the old Pittsburgh Pirate hurler, had the Indians eating out of his hand. He had been on baseball’s retired list for some time and his achievement Friday came as a surprise. He formerly pitched for Louisville and is a brother of Rex Dawson, who was a Tribe star several years ago and who still resides in Indianapolis. Held to Seven Hits Joe used ot be accused of doctoring the ball when he was an idol at Louisville, and there were signs Friday that he is up to his old tricks. Anyway, he put over a neat performance of pitching and held the locals to seven blows. \ After scoring twice in the opening stanza the Blues came back with another marker in the second and four in the fifth. Horne was knocked out and Johnny Cooney went to the Tribe firing line and turned in a splendid job of throwing after the fifth. He was touched freely in that round after relieving Horne, but in the following sessions the Blues were puzzled by his offerings and utheer was no further K. C. scoring. Two Triples by McCann The Indians tallied once in the fifth and once in the ninth. Manager McCann poled two triples during the contest and Curt Walker also hit for three sacks. Dawson issued seven bases on balls, but usually managed to tighten up with runners on the paths, and fourteen Indians were left stranded. Tom Angley was banished during the course of the fray after a runin with Umpire Erwin and Archie Campbell was chased off of the Tribe benesh for engaging in a fuss with Umpire Brown.

If they don’t we won't, win. You see, I haven’t any other pitchers that are so good. “But I think they’ll do it. My boys still have lots of spirit and ambition despite their three big years. Honestly, I wouldn’t have been surprised if they had lost their drive last year. But they didn’t. I doubt if Groves will win thirty-one and lose but four this year. He'll probably pitch as well as he did last season, but he isn’t likely to get as many breaks. You know, it takes a lot of luck, as well as a lot of stuff, to run that sort of average. “While I'm talking about Groves, let me tell you he isn't afraid of any team in the worid. They say he doesn’t like to pitch against the Yankees. That's all tommyrot. It's me that keeps him back. It's just like I used to do with Bender. I never used him against a club that would make a goat out of him unless I had to. I’d rather gamble with a weaker pitcher and save the big man for games I know he can win. After all, my business is to win ball games and not accept dares.

Roy Wallace
Roy Wallace, local slugger, is to meet Sammy Kid Slaughter of Terre Haute Tuesday night at the armory, and the match is attracting state-wide attention. While Wallace is a light-heavyweight and Slaughter is the state middleweight titleholder, there probably will be little difference in poundage when they climb into the legion ring. The Taylor protege scaled 162 pounds when he whipped Dave Shade at Milwaukee last week, and Wallace weighed 169 when he defeated Buck Everett of Gary at the armory recently. Both boxers will indulge in public workouts at the Victory gymnasium Sunday afternoon.

YOU asked me about Cochrane, didn’t you? Still the best catcher of them all. Sure, he makes mistakes like all the rest of us. But unlike most of us. he doesn't make many. I'm sorry you asked about my infield, for I don't know myself what will work out. Rirgth now, Williams is a disappointment. Dykes isn't hitting and Bishop is injured. But I guess it will all work out. “I like Coleman. He's a hostled and he can hit. Maybe after he gets to feeling at home I’ll give him a chance as a regular. But then, Bing Miller is a mighty good man to ljpve out there in a pinch. Funny thing about Miller. He is the strongest man on the club and can beat them all fighting, but he is always catching colds that a baby wouldn’t catch. I guess he is just cold natured and can't help It.” Mack returned to his toast and marmalede at this point, so I asked him what his plans for the future were. Was he thinking about turning over the team to Eddie Collins? “I guess I’ll keep at it as long as I feel all right and dn’t make too many mistakes. You know, baseball is my life, and I still get an awful thrill out of a game. That may sound funny coming from an old nan who has seen a million of them, but did you ever notice, son, how every one is anew one, a different one?”
