YORK, Dec. 25. —“We still will need the breaks to repeat/' Frankie Frisch, whose champion St. Louis Cardinals, according to Casey Stengel and other shrewd baseball appraisers, are better fortified for 1935 than when they opened the 1934 drive, made the above statement to me while previewing the National League prospects for *he coming year. “I believe we’ll have a stronger league from top to bottom than was the case in 1931,” said the Cardinal boss. “The Phillies and the Reds are going to win more games next season. Jimmie Wilson, with his new and young infield and at least two fine hurlers in Curt Davis and Fuel Mooie, is sure to make a lot of trouble for many clubs. Charley Dressen, with a more agile and active team at Cincinnati, is apt is to do likewise. This will mean much tighter going for everybody, and the club that finally comes out on top will have to have the breaks. a a a 0 0 0 ls no doubt in my mind concerning a distinct improvement 1 in the Giants as the result of their recent trades. Bartell is going to hHp them a lot in the infield, as will George Davis in the outfield. Parmelee will be back in form for the full campaign to strengthen their already strong pitching staff. It's going to take a lot to keep them out of first place. . . . • I believe, too, that both the Cubs and the Pirates will be better teams than last year—and last year they were good enough to keep us on the anxious seat most of the season. When the Braves and the Dodgers have completed the ripals they have pending they'll have something to say about the final standing, too I thought Stengel did a fine job last year with the material he had. Many of his younger players improved remarkably over the season, and the team closed with an inspiring rush. If they piek up where they left off, don't be surprised if they make tho first division next year.” 000 o*o CONCERNING his own club, Frisch seemed loath to go on record. “I never make predictions about any club I manage,” he stated. While I have to admit we won the pennant and the world championship, retain the vital contributors to those conquests and have several promising youngsters coming up. I am not counting the 1935 pennant as already won" Every club will be aiming at us. And, as I have said, the breaks are going to be most important.” # Ho admitted he was counting strjngly on Terry Moore, the former Columbus center fielder, to strengthen the Cardinals in that position and said he was hopeful that Pat Malone, recently obtained from the Cubs, and one or two of his younger pitchers would be to help the Deans, Walker and Hallahan carry the pitching burden. *OO * * tt ASKED if he considered carrying Dazzy Vance on the Cardinal role for another season, Frisch was non-committal, but said the one-time Dodger ace ought to oe able to deliver as a relief pitcher. Frisch, who makes his home in New Rochelle, plans to remain North until it is time to assemble his squad for spring practice in Florida.

Once again the bowlers of Indianapolis came to the front in The Times annual Clothe-A-Child campaign. making it possible to care for 38 of these needy children.

Santa Anita Race Meet Under Way Time Supply Favorite in Christmas Stakes. By United Press SANTA ANITA PARK., Cal., Dec, 25—Billed as the greatest meeting of its kind the country ever has known, the horse racing season opened here today before 60,000 fans after a 25-year lapse. The SSOO0 N aded Christmas Stakes featured the racing of the day, but it was a minor symphony in the overtones of the grand-scale opening. This opening drew attention to the most modern of racing plants, the finest horseflesh ever assembled at any track, the world’s top purse and the return of big-time racing to Southern California. And all this was taking place on ground sacred to racing people, for the new race track is situated on what once was the Santa Anita ranch of the late E. J. (Lucky) Baldwin, prominent in early California history. Fifteen horses were entered in the Christmas stakes, which was one mile. Probable post favorite was Mrs. F. A. Carreaud's Time Supply, leading money winner of the late 1934 season. With victories in the $25,000 Narragansett special and the $25,000 Bay Meadows Handicap to his credit. Time Supply was rated in overnight odds at 7 to 5 to win. He carried top weight of 126.8. Kautskys in Tilt With Savoy Five City Squad Seeks Second Win Over Invaders. The Kautsky A.

The game will get under way at 8:30 following a curtain-raised between two

A Dog’s Life ——By Leon F. Whitney— - ....

'"r'HERE are some dogs whose ■L nature impels them to want to get off in the woods and hunt and others whose nature impels them to want to roam and there are those which seem to have no desire to be away from home. I am making these remarks because so many persons have written me to ask what they can do

make their dogs stay home. This is a sort of composite answer. To tell the truth, I don’t know of any way of breaking dogs once tney have acquired the habit. Doubtless there is a way and perchance some kind reader will come forward with a method he has found successful.

;, ' ; ...

if so, it will be published. Looking back at our experiences, I can think of dogs, for instance, a famous pair of hounds, which stayed home like good little pets until all of a sudden something within them seejned to burst. They would become restless, walk up and down their run, and the next thing we knew they had scaled the fence, and generally would return home a day or two afterwards, but more than likely some kind soul would find them limping along a road five or ten miles away and would tie them up and phone for me to cor.ie and get them. A good hound lives for his hunting. The air sr.iells right for trailing or something and a spark sets him off. You can’t alter that inspiration anfd the desire to fulfill it, or you tend to ruin the dog. Then there have been others that would roam lesser distances, and sometimes were killed by cars until at last we kept them in runs with wire across the tops. A fr end had a pair of English bull terriers, and because they were good ones, they weren’t happy until they had gone off for a romp and killed a dog or two and all the cats they could find. The method of handling the situation is to choose the kind of dog that fits the environment, and to keep the dogs which are out of their proper environments, in kennel runs or on chains. If there is another solution, won't someone enlighten us? Next I am going to tell you another readers experience breaking a dog of car chasing. Do you have a dog problem?

Kuss will be tossed against Tom (Bad Wolf) Martin, tough trial horse, and the match promises to show the fans whether or not the Crimson athlete can “stand the pace” in professional mat circles. Otto made a big hit here on the last mat card when he made his first appearance as a professional. He flopped Eddie Wirth, a veteran. It will be a different assignment for Otto when he takes on Marvin, however, for Tom knows how to “give and take” with the best of them. It was Marvin and his well known “chin lock” hold that halted Andy Rascher, another I. U. mat ace, when he started in pro ranks here two years ago. Andy had obtained a draw and scored two victories before the Marvin match, but he gave up when Tom clamped the chin lock on him. He later defeated Marvin but that was not until after he had gained considerable more experience. Kuss is six feet, two inches tall, weights 220. and made a real impression in his initial bout. The Tuesday night feature attraction and other supporting bout has not been announced.
