PREDICTS LOWER BRACKET FOR BRAVES
Cuddy Says McKechnie Will Wind Up in Fifth Boston National Machine, Last Year a First Division Club, Needs Bolstering in Infield; Faces Tough Race in Circuit This Year. BY JACK CUDDY United Pre* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. April s.—ln discussing the Boston Braves this season, it is appropriate first to shed a tear for honest Bill McKechnie. - the meat saw magnate of Wiikinsburg. Pa., who is starting his fifth season as manager of the Redskins—on anew five-year contract. Sharp-featured Bill is one of the ace pilots in the big time, but he faces a difficult assignment this season, indeed. This difficulty results partially from his success in 1933 when he completed four years of rebuilding by leading the tribe into the National League's fourth notch. It was the first time Boston had a first-division club in either circuit since 1921 when the Braves occupied fourth berth. Now. club President Emil Fuchs and the Hub fans would be pleased no end if Bill should send his warriors “right up there" this year.
Moreover, McKechnie i3 confronted not only with .this dog fight among National League clubs, but he must keep his band tearing along fast enough to prevent the Boston Red Sox from luring customers away from the gate. At last the Sox are a genuine gate menace. Most fans are one-clubbers. At the present writing, the Braves are poorly equipped to retain their fourth-place ranking or to outdraw the Sox. They look definitely like a fifth-place club. It is a fighting team, fortified with excellent pitching; but it lacks batting punch and has a miserable infield—particularly since Rabbit Maranville recently broke two bones in his leg. The Rabbit, despite his 42 years, was slated for second base. His removal, probably for the season shows that the sickness and injury jinx still is riding the Braves! McKechnie scarcely would try to start the season with his present infield. Baxer Jordan at first, Pinkey Whitney shifted from third to second, Bill Urbanski at short, and Dick Gyselman subbing at third. He Is trying to trade a pitcher for a second sacker such as Tony Cuccinello of the Dodgers. Gyselman was the team’s only utility infielder. Shortstop Jonah Goldman was acquired from the Montreal Royals this w*eek. Two Good Fielders Two good men are in the outfield. Wally Berger at center, who hit .313 last season, and Randy Moore in right, who hit .302. Red Worthington, who broke his leg in 1932 and was sick most of last season, may replace Hal Lee in left. If Worthington regains his 1932 form, it will strengthen the pickets considerably. Young Rupert Thompson, who came to the Braves from the Albany club last season, in expected to remain as a utility man, with Lee. Ed Brandt, one of the league’s best southpaws, and Ben Cantwell, head the pitching staff. Other probable starters are Fred Frankhouse, Huck Betts and Bob Smith. Young Bob Brown, who was out last season with a sore arm. shows signs of returning to the game. Pickerel Promising Tom Zachary and Leo Mangurn are available for relief work. Steve Swetonic, obtained recently from Pirates, was sent back because of a paralyzed hand. Rookie Clarence Pickrel shows promise. One of the leading flingers may go in trade for a second baseman. Catchers “Shanty” Hogan and A1 Spohrer are slow, and only fair at bat. Hogan, the first-stringer, carries too much blubber for a speed merchant. Last season the Braves ranked seventh in club batting, at .252. Unless the lively ball helps the outfielders, there seems little hope for added punch.

Liebtag Sets Pace With 714, But His Team Loses Series
BY PAUL STRIEBECK (Pinch Hitting for Lefty Lee) Frank Lie’otag blasted the maples for a 714 total on games of 258, 222 and 234, in the Indianapolis League at the Pritchett alleys last night. Although Frank Alford had 621, and Liebtag the high total, the Coca Cola team failed to win a game from the Barbasol five, due to wonderful shooting by D. Johnson and Hueber, each with 659, Carmin, 658; Fehr, 616, and Striebeck. 553. The Barbasols also produced 1,059, 1,041 and 1,078 for a 3.178 team total. The Rose Tire team was given a three-game lacing by the JonesMaley five when Pritchett Sr., Murphy. Heiss and Hornberger came through with 678. 673, 619 and 618. With these series this team was able to pound out a 3.141 on games of 1,057, 1,011 and 1,073. Mausner Beer met double defeat from the Selmier Towel Supply as Sen-maker with 695, and a 645 by Kemper, put over the needed punch. Argus had 600 even for the losers. Schlitz Beer had Bob Hughes with 641. John Blue. 632. and Tarrant with 631 to count twice from Antler Alley Five that had Mahomey and Meeker with 632 and 622. The Gregory and Appel team had McNew, 605, and Bowen, 604, but this was not enough to offset the 652 by Fulton, 637 by Abbott and the 6i5 by Mounts, and the former lost the odd game. The tw*o remaining contests found Fall City Beer and Russett Cafeteria taking two games from Roberson Coal and
backs being staged by Joe Vosmik of the Indians and Travis Jackson of the Giants. Both are playing excellently in the field and belting the ball all over the lot.

Three Pirate errors helped the American Leaguers, whose mound representatives, Sad Sam Jones and Joe Heving, let the Bucs down with nine hits. DODGERS NICK RED SOX By Times Special ORLANDO. Fla..

Bazaar Is Worth Watching Among Derby Hopefuls; Bradley Is the Owner
Editor * Not* —Thi* I* the flr*t of a •cries of articles on the leadlnj Kentucky Derby candidate*. Max Biddle, the author. 1* an authority on horse racing and he has enjoyed unusual success in doping out the winner* of past Kentucky classics. His opinion* are based on facts gathered after weeks of study. Follow his series in The Times. They will appear from time to time. BY MAX RIDDLE (Copyright. 1934. by NEA Service, Inc.) COLONEL EDWARD BRADLEY once more is predicting a Derby victory for his colors May 5. and if right, it may be that the brilliant filly Bazaar will be the one to carry his green and white colors to victory. Bazaar was one of the best of last year’s crop of unusually marvelous fillies, being second only to Matl Hari in money winnings. And like Mati Hari, Bazaar was capable of giving the colts plenty of running. She first jumped into fame when she won the Albany handicap at Saratoga, closely following this with a victory in the Hopeful stakes. One of the best fields of the year was gathered together in the Hopeful, and Bazaar simply galloped away from the colors of High Quest, Discovery, Singing Wood, Red Wagon, B ack Buddy and others of like caliber. o a tt BAZAAR proved her mud running ability by taking the Charlotte Hall purse at Laurel in the good time of 1:42 2-5 for the mile, beating Jabot and others. She was the favorite for the Selima but met with continued interference, and was beaten by Jabot and Hindu Queen. She topped off the season by winning the Spaulding Lowe Jenkins in brilliant fashion, running a sparkling mile in 1:38 4-5, and beat
Silver Edge Beer. Other 600 totals were Daugherty, 637; Schleimer, 620, and Coval, 613. Ail contests In the Uptown Recreation League at the Untow’n alieys last night resulted in two-to-one decisions in favor of Seien Up. Dr Pepper.

Eller had 623; Crosier. 616; Kelley and Heckman. 605, and Forsyth. 602. To offset the 619 by J. Kimmel, Boesnecker crashed through with a 645 and put his team across for a three-game victory from Ritz Theater in the North Side Business Men’s League at the Parkway alleys. Brenn, with 631. was the reason Fairfield Florist had the Safety Boosters bowing twice in defeat. The other two series had Prospect Street Gas and Sovereign Realty able to come in for only one game from Flretite Products and Silver s Delicatessen. In the Indiana Ladies’ League at the Indiana alleys, Herman Schmitt Insurance and Picardy Candy blanked the Standard Grocery arid Smith, Hassler and Sturm. Other tilts found Van Camps, Inc.. Kingan & Cos., and Hoosier Pete counting twice from East End Green House. Kav Jewelry and Prest-O-Lite Batteries. Pocahontas Coal and Old Gold Cigaretes will roll later. Fisher and Marks led the Class A individual scoring with 505. Hofflein was next with 500 even. In Class B, Gloss was outstanding with 393. Williams had 388. and Pleak, 382. Hi-Jenks and Witticisms set the SugarLump and Craigites down three times in the United Mutual Life Insurance Ladies' League at the Illinois alleys. The remaining series found Hortonettes scoring twice over Slam Bangs. Damaree topned the scoring with 410. In the Federal League at the Illinois alleys the Agents lost the entire set to the Railways as Fields was collecting a double-header from Collectors. Collier was best with 520. Washers cleaned up on the Fourth Floor three times in the Wm. H. Block League at the Illinois drives. Fifth Floor counted by the same margin from Third Floor as Downstairs trimmed the Window Trimmers twice. Carter counted with a 234 in his middle game to finish with a 598 series to lead individual scoring. G. Thomas was by far the outstanding leader when he rolled a 632 in the Ipalco League at the Illinois alleys. His team, the Mill Street No. 1, had no opposition. Three-game decisions ruled this loop, with Harding Street and Third Floor winning over Mill Street No. 2 and Fifth Floor. Morris Street took the odd game from Line Department. In the Interclub League at the Pritchett alleys Malarkey, again featured this league with a 639 ana tne high single game for the evening with a 269. In team play Exchange Lame Bulls. Mutual Grain Dealers and Universal Yanks looked at three zeroes given them by Universal Indians. Exchange Service and Mercator. Mutual Lumberman Insurance and Exchange Unity managed to score once from A. B. Club and Lions Club. Bioiogicals and Tablets administered three-game setbacks to Pow’ders and Ilitins while Elixirs. Pills. Dentals and Capsules took a double header from Oiintments. Ampoules. Syrups and Extracts. Powell was high with a 570, and Huck was three pins short of this honor with a 567. Bill Cummings Tunes Up Auto A satisfactory performance was reported today by Bill Cummings, Indianapolis, after his first trial spin around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway here in preparation for the annual 500-mile race May 30. Cummings negotiated twelve laps averaging between 111 and 114 miles an hour in his Boyle Valve special, the same car in which he won pole position last year with a 25-mile average of 118.521 miles an hour. The trial spin was conducted preparatory to conditioning the car to run the 500 miles on the new limit of 45 gallons of gasoline. Caras Takes 3 Local Matches Jimmy Caras, youthful Wilmington (Del.) cue star, had little trouble in winning three pocket billiards exhibition contests against local competition here yesterday. He downed A. H. Bickel. 100 to 19 in twelve innings at Dougherty’s parlors, and won from George Avery, 100 to 29 at the Board of Trade parlors.

the crack colts, Cavalcade, Chickstraw, Vicar and Signalman. All but Signalman are Derby eligibles. Bazaar, though technically an American horse, is actually English. Colonel Bradley bought her dam because he wanted a mare with the blood of Carbine in her, and was only incidentally Interested in the fact the mare was In foal to Tetratema. Bazaar was thus imported “in utero” to this country. a a a HER sire was a particularly fast race horse, but was not more than average at the longer distances. Asa sire he has become world famous for the sparkling sprinters he gets. Few of his offspring have had any ability as routers. Thus, Bazaar’s distance running ability is subject to grave doubt. But Derby enthusiasts will look Bazaar over pretty carefully before they throw her out of consideration. They know well enough how the ‘‘Kunnel’s” horses run on Derby day. The wily colonel dealt them a surprise last year with his Broker's Tip, and Bazaar won’t be without friends when the field goes postward May 5.

DUTIES 60RE YOUNG MAYOR Daniel Penrod. 15, Waxes Eloquent on Pet Topic at City Hall. Rattle snakes, rather than civic duties, took the attention of Daniel Penrod. 15. when he acted as mayor of Indianapolis for a few minutes yesterday. Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan. Ernest C. Ropkey. city council president, and three reporters fired questions at Daniel, an Eagle scout from Troop 78. in an attempt to determine his political tendencies. “Yes. I like being mayor." "No, I do not contemplate any changes in the city administration." ‘Yes, I think the city council has done a good job this year.” ‘No, I am not going to put any reporters on the police force." Daniel shot his answers back in a perfunctory manner and seemed bored with the whole procedure occasioning his mayoralty duties. Then Mayor Sullivan and Mr. Ropkey started off on the discussion of snakes. Daniel immediately brightened up and proceeded to enlighten the gathering at some length on the thrills of snake hunting on the boy scout reservation. Daniel is the son of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Penrod, 4617 Park avenue. He is a sophomore at Shortridge high school. LEGALS 56 Legal Notices LEGAL NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING PUBLIC' SERVICE COMMISSION DOCKET NO. 11780.
