Opening Day Attendance Betokens Return of Old Prosperity to Baseball Jump*off Games Indicate Sluggers Will Command Game Rather Than Pitchers: Nationals Seem to to Like New Live Apple. BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. April 18.—Granting that portents of*opening day games are about as reliable as a barometer in a vacuum, returns from the first day’s play of the 1934 major league season—in which the sixteen clubs look off in massed flight—seem to indicate: That the season will see a robust increase in attendance in both circuits; that sluggers, rather than pitchers, will take command; that the American League will have a wide open pennant fight for the first time in years, and that National circuit batsmen have found the live ball to their liking.

Yesterday's attendance at the eight inaugural games totaled 187,500. This did not approach the opening record of 249,000 set in 1931, but it did show a healthy average increase over last season when 97,500 attended five contests. This year's average per game was 23.437, or an increase of 3,937 over the 1933 average. The largest crowd, 37,500, saw the world champion Giants wallop the staggering Phillies at New York, and the smallest. 7,500, saw the Cardinals overwhelm the Pirates at St. Louis. Although most of the managers trotted out their best pitchers, batsmen were mighty active, registering sixty-five hits in the National and sixty-six in the American circuit. This was an average of about eight safeties per club per game—a smart average. True, Lon Warneke of the Cubs turned in the season’s first onehit performance against the Reds, and Carl Hubbell of the Giants limited the Phillies to four. It must be remembered, however, that these two top-notch flingers were operating against the weak-sister clubs of their circuit. Adding luster to the batsmen, six National and three American home runs were registered. Moreover, such upper-strata hurlers as Gomez. Whitehill, Brandt, Si Johnson, Blaeholder and Hildebrand were battered off the mound. Stirring events at Boston and Philadelphia indicated scrappy days in the American League. The rebuilt Red Sox rose up and menaced the pennant-winning Senators for eleven innings before the latter wriggled out with a 6 to 5 victory. At Philadelphia, the supposedly wrecked Athletics upset the highly touted Yankees, 6 to 5. Earl Averill’s home run featured Cleveland’s 5 to 2 victory over the lowly Browns. The improved Detroit Tigers issued a pennant challenge by walloping the White Sox. 8 to 3. In the National League, the Giants started auspiciously by smothering the Phillies, 6 to 1. The Dodgers beat the Braves, 8 to 7. The Cardinals entered a strong bid for the pennant by overwhelming the powerful Pirates, 7 to 1.

Lou Meyer Enters Own Auto in Race on Memorial Day Four-Cylinder Miller Will Be in First Actual Competition. Lou Meyer, the 32-year-old California veteran, will use his own car this year in an effort to win his third 500-mile race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Meyer won the race in 1928 and 1933 and is the only driver other than Tommy Milton who has won more than one of the 500-mile events here. In winning last year he drove for Ralph Hepburn. In his 1928 victory Meyer drove a car owned by Alden Sampson, who sold his little garage in Tippecanoe City, 0., to purchase the auto. It more than repaid his gamble. Meyer had a hard job breaking into the racing game. He came here, 26 years old, in 1928, to take a job he’d been promised as a driver for a large team, but more experienced drivers crowded him out. It was then that he interested Sampson in buying one of Phil Shafer's mounts. His car is a four-cylinder Miller special, which was constructed during the winter ar.d which wall be t entered in its first race Memorial I Day.

April 18.—The Carnegie Foundation sought to terminate one of the nation’s outstanding football relationships, the annual games between Notre Dame and University of Southern California, a former Notre Dame official charged in a speech here. The charge was made b ythe Rev. | Father Mulcaire, former chairman of the Notre Dame board of athletics and now associated with Columbia university at Portland. It was revealed today in discussions of the priest's sensational statement to alutnni of the Indiana institution. Later the contract between the two schools was renewed, providing for annual games until the end of the 1937 season.

Peace Chance One of Best of Second Division 3-Year-Olds

. e* ' ' v . "w'-A J PEACE \

BY MAX RIDDLE ( Copyright, 1931, NEA Service, Inc.) ONE of the best of the second division 3-year-olds which will be seeking laurels in the Kentucky Derby is Josephine Widener’s Peace Chance. Handled as a 2-year-o’d by “Uncle Henry” McDaniel, than whom there is none better, he came under McDaniel’s long time assistant, Pete Coyne, when the former transferred his allegiance to Willis Sharpe Kilmer. Coyne took Peace Chance to Louisville when the winter began to break, and has given him slow and careful training. He started for the Saratoga Special and, after suffering continued interference, was beaten by Bazaar, Singing Wood, Hadagal, and Kawagoe. nan THE following month he ran for the Nursery at Belmont Park, but had no chance to win.

Right Triumphs in Ring

Dr. Karl Sarpolis Takes Decision on Foul in Armory Main Event Last Night. BY CARLOS LANE IT might have been lifted, to the last cloying detail, from an Alger tale entitled “Doc the Docile.” that main act in the Hercules A. C. wrestling show in me Armory last night. So dramatically did it portray the triumph of right over misapplied might that, after it was over, three thousand fans clamored around the ring, bombarding the villain with invective and whatever physical weapons came to hand.

Fortunately for one George (Cry Baby) Zaharias and the peace restorative efforts in the War Memorial plaza vicinity, there were none of the latter more lethal than folded newspapers and popcorn boxes. The fruits of victory, without full flavor by dint of being ripened on the forfeit tree, were dropped in the lap or Dr. Karl Sarpolis, Cleveland dentist-wrestler, by Heze Clark after Zaharias and Sarpolis each had taken a fall in the bout. In the other main event on the evening’s card, Frank Speer, Atlanta heavyweight, took a referee’s decision over Tom (Bad Wolf) Marvin, in ninety minutes, with each winning one flip. Both bouts were rematches. tt tt tt SARPOLIS was revenge thirsty, but he know from his former experienced with Zaharias that all his ring cleverness would not offset the punishing tricks of the Colorado meanie. Still he couldn’t work up the temper to start the illicit fireworks once the pair of heavies were in the ring. It was the Cry Baby who opened up with a stranglehold that was a strangle only when the doctor was flying through the air, safely out of the reaches of Mr. Clark’s probing hands. For thirty-two minutes that sort of thing continued, and then the Cry Baby caught the doctor with a toe hold that forced Sarpoiis to the floor and wrenched a knee badly. As they returned for the second stanza topple Zaharias made a play for the bad knee, spicing his endeavor with a series of flailing fists. Here was the bully tormenting the game kid with the white collar—and the crowd didn’t like it. On the verge of losing the match, Sarpolis suddenly came to life, lifted the Cry Baby off the floor twice with flying tackles, and completed the preliminaries to the body pin fall with a hefty crotch and slam. St ft tt SARPOLIS’ fire flamed again as they returned for the deciding fall, but Zaharias’ fists soon put

goe, the eventual winner, swerved into him. precipitating a jam which caused Peace Chance, Vicar and Blue Again to pull up. The son of Chance Shot then won two in a row. However, he caught a tartar in Sergeant Byrne, which gave him a five-length beating in the Remsen Handicap. This year he has been working splendidly for the great event. In a recent workout, Peace Chance slipped off five-eights of a mile in 1:02, doing the first quarter in :24, and the half in :48 4-5. The work was just a breeze to him, and at no time was he allowed his head. It will be noted that the first quarter of his workout was rather slower than most Derby candidates show in their spring preparation. This illustrates the fact that Peace Chance is likely to live up to his Fair Play blood. The Fair Play horses develop slowly and like plenty of time to get into their stride.

him on the floor. Several times Clark warned the Cry Baby, until, as a knee in the midriff parked the doctor on the mat, the refreee disqualified Zaharias. The opening bout, expected to be a riot of slugging and gouging, saw Speer carrying a slight advantage over Marvin virtually all the way, except in the second fall, when the Bad Wolf clamped a chinlock on the big Georgian and forced him to surrender. Speer copped the first tumble in fifty-two minutes with a crotch and slam. For one of the few times in his career here, the Bad Wolf was the people’s choice, and never more so than as Speer worked his way to a double toe-hold, the Wolf sank his fangs into the nearest portion of Speer’s anatomy, with the same result as though the Atlantan had seated himself inadvertently upon his grandmother’s stray false teeth.

Indiana Track Aces Entered in Penn Event Fuqua, Hornbostel to Run on Relay Teams in Big Carnival. By Times Special PHILADELPHIA, April 18.—Ivan Fuqua and Charles Hornbostel, of Indiana university, two of the nation's outstanding track athletes, will participate in the Penn Relays, Friday and Saturday, April 27 and 28.

Can’t Fillies Stand Gaff? Look at Hambletonians

BY lIENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, April 18— Being a poor hand with gals, I never quite understood why fillies can’t win the Kentucky Derby, and a ream of data on the Hambletonian trotting stake, which has seen four of its eight runnings’ taken by ladies, doesn't help to clear things up. If the girls can win the Hambletonian it seems they ought to be able to win the Derby. The latter is only a mile ana a quarter run, while the Hambletonian, with its system of best two out of three heats for victory, nearly always re-

Mrs. Catharine Miller

Her team is scheduled to make its appearance in the tourney on April 26. Although Mrs. Miller has yet to win a tourney championship, she has placed well up in several events. She is a member of the Beard’s Brake Service team, and in the Rose Tire Social League has an average of 163.

quires the winner to trot at least three miles. And it’s not unusual, what with the innumerable practice starts, for a Hambletonian winner to do four, five or even six miles in an afternoon. Last year up at Goshen, Mary Reynolds stepped around the dusty track four times before they dropped the floral life preserver around her neck and handed her owner, the tobaccoish Mr. Reynplds, the silver plate And the year before that the Marchioness, another precocious lass, did around four miles before winning. All of which would indicate that the beys who say the fillies aren’t geared for distance, don’t knew what they’re talking about. Furthermore, or moreover, if you like that word better, the Hambletonian ladies have to pull a ouggy behind them. And the buggy is no baby carriage, either, and it contains an adult gentleman who usually weighs in the neighborhood of eleven or twelve stone. Yet, despite the long haul and the excess baggage, the fillies, as I said, have won four of the eight Hambletonians. They missed out in 1926, the inaugural race, but Isola’s Worthy started them off in 1927. The boys took it the next two years, with Hanover’s Bertha winning in 1930. Calumet Butler came home in front in ’3l. but the Marchioness and Mary Reynolds were invincible the last two years. The girls are likely to make it three in a row, for the winter books have Bertha C. Hanover as the favorite. She is quoted at 3 to 1 and is given a shade over Lord Jim, the next in line. Among the other fillies who are conceded a good chance are Marne McElwyn and Fay Mack. Fay Mack is known as the “old gray mare,” in that she is practically the only gray trotter or pacer on the Grand Circuit. It will be a big break for the sports writers if Fay wins, for what could be sweeter than a lead about the "old gray mare, she ain’t what she used to be —she’s better.” LEGALS 56 Legal Notices NOTICE TO BIDDERS Notice is hereby given that sealed bids for the purchase of the following materials will be received bv the Chairman of the State Highway Commission of Indiana, at his office on the third floor State House Annex. 102 North Senate Avenue.
