BBS B B B ERNIE SMITH, dependable shortstop that he is, may have to padlock his laurels this spring with Arthur Cuisinier, a young collegian with a gas tank full of high speed stuff, shooting for a job with the Minneapolis Millers. Cuisinier hails from the University of Wisconsin, where he gave three years of varsity baseball to the Badgers, coming through with a batting average of .370 for his Big Ten career. Until his last year in college, Cuisinier played third base, but his ground-covering ability was : going stale around the hot corner. He has moved to short and the j blankets taken off him. Given wider pastures, he burned things up for ' the Badger nine in the center of the infield. For three years, Cuisinier was third baseman for the Tilden Tech high school of Chicago and he left a mark his last season when he topped the team in batting with a .444 average. He then entered Wisconsin, but played independent ball in the summers, batting .379 for the Nash Boosters of Chicago one year and .396 for the Duffy Florals of the Wisconsin-Illinois circuit another. Cuisinier will be 23 years old July 21. He is a six-footer, weighing 175 pounds, and does all his baseball chores right-handed. B B B B B B GOODWIN ROSEN, sterling -young outfielder with the Louisville Colonels, once drove in seven runs with two hits in an amateur game up in Canada. The blows were successive homers, the first coming with the bases loaded and the next with two runners aboard. The youngster started out in the Inter-State League of Pennsylvania in 1932, and was batting .378 and leading in stolen bases when the loop folded in June. He finished the year with an independent club, batting .395 in seventy games as lead-off man.

Schneider had 614 and 602 for the Cubs, but the support was not there and they dropped a twin bill to the Dodgers.

Mat Stars Go Tonight Armory Show Is Filled with Heavy Giants; Dean Is One.
THE COMPLETE CARD
Main Go Georre ■ (Cry Baby) Zaharias, 235, Pueblo, Colo., vs. Karl (Doc) Sarpolis, 215, Erie, Pa. Two falls out of three. Semi-Final Charlie Strark, 235. Boston “Bad Boy,” vs. Man Mountain Dean, 305, Xorcross, Ga. One fall. Opening Bout Tom (Bad Wolf) Marvin, 212, Oklahoma, vs. Frank Speer, 230. Atlanta. One fall. All heavyweight bouts. First at 8:30. Referee, Here Clark. Nationally known heavyweight wrestlers, including Man Mountain Dean, 305-pound bearded grappler from Georgia, will provide the action on the Hercules A. C. card tonight at the Armory. It will be the first local appearance of the huge southerner. Three matches are on the program, first at 8:30. George (Cry Baby) Zaharias, the I colorful Greek husky from Pueblo, tackles Karl (Doc) Sarpolis, former Chicago university mat ace in tonight’s main go. In his last appearance here several weeks ago, Sarpolis defeated Roland Kirchmeyer, tall Kansas heavyweight. It is likely that Sarpolis, who depends mostly on science and skill, will be the fans’ choice in this match inasmuch as Zaharias is of the rough type. Charlie Strack, “Boston Bad Boy” and former Olympic wrestler, will, furnish the opposition for Man Mountain Dean in the semi-windup. Strack was a member of the United States Olympic teams in Paris and Amsterdam. Most of Dean’s triumphs have been quick ones. He maneuvers his opponents about in order to get them in a position where he can fall on them and end the bout. What promises to be a “young war” will be offered in the opening match when Tom (Bad Wolf) Marvin, Oklahoma Indian, comes to grips with Frank Speer, Atlanta grappler. Falcaro Billed at Four Alleys Joe Falcaro, world famous match game bowler, will perform at four alleys during his visit in Indianapolis starting Thursday. On that night, at 8:30, he will roll at the Delaware drives, and at the same hour Friday he will appear at the Indiana alleys. On Saturday, at 8:30 p. m. the star New York pinman will engage in exhibitions at the Parkway drives, and on Sunday, at 7:30 p. m„ Falcaro will demonstrate his skill at the Fountain Square drives. Falcaro owns a number of world’s records and has posted thirty-five perfect 300 scores during his career. At each of the local alleys the easterner will engage in match games against Indianapolis stars and also give free instructions and demonstrate some trick shooting.
