= IKE squirrels in a cage, the six-day cyclists are at it

24 hours a day out at Butler Fieldhouse, sprinting, jamming, spilling and at other times, just pedaling. . .. The endurance event requires a barrel of stamina, but the boys wheel their bikes around the board saucer with the greatest of ease and seemingly are in the best of health. « « . They are on a short slumber schedule as they race the clock around, but it’s their trade and they know all the tricks to meet the situation. | The boys actually rest while riding at intervals between sprints and lap stealing sessions, and when they do hit the hay for a cat nap they just close their eyes and drop off into slumberland. ! The kitchen and dining room at the trackside are never closed and the wheelmen are permitted to put on

the feed bag at all hours except that the race must remain

continuous with each of the 10 teams represented on the track every minute of the way. ... However, no one rider is permitted on the boards more than 12 hours in each 24. 3 ” » ® # # 8 | RUSTY PEDEN, Canadian, a cousin of the famous ** Morch Peden, cracked up late yesterday afternoon, but true to the profession, he was back in there in short

_ order after a trainer doctored his arm and leg burns. . ..

Peden’s wheel went out of control high on the east bank and shot down to the flat where Rusty was tossed over the handlebars. I The spill made him a bit jumpy at first. . . . He just recently turned professional and is hooked in with a fast field of seasoned six-day stars. ... His teammate is Tom Saetta, Italian, who is competing in his 20th six-day event. : Henri LePage, the black-haired Adonis, is running a close race with Jules Audy, the blond flier, in the hearts, flowers and autograph competition. . . . They have what it takes to crash the movies. : :

T= six-day promoters were pleased with last night's attendance

and hope the customer business picks up throughout the week. . .. The event lost money here last year, but the managers put more “promotion” into the enterprise this time and look for a better break.

. . . They admit Indianapolis is a hard city to “crack” and are keeping °

in close touch with the box office. Any kind of a race except the 500-mile has tough sledding here and the cyclists are determined to give their best toward making the colorful show an annual event on the local sporis calendar... . The promoters are under heavy expense and naturally must turn to the choice spots to remain in business.

ANAGER GRIMM of the Chicago Cubs says he’s counting on the veteran Gabby Hartnett to catch 110 games this season. ... There had been reports that the stalwart Irishman would be relieved of some of the burden, but the Cubs’ chief now says Gabby is in as good shape as he’s been in 10 years. This means that Ken O'Dea and Bob Garbark will have to wait another year to compete for the first string berth... . Hartnett is as smart as they grow ’em and his batting power will be a factor in the Bruins’ drive for the pennant. ; Boze Berger may win the ppen berth at shortstop with the White Sox. . . . He has fielded well since Luke Appling was carried out with a broken leg, and strange as it seems, Boze has been walloping the ball. . . . But the Sox officials know Berger is a weak sticker and are on the lookout for a replacement. i

Rconns may come and go with the rise of each succeeding new

athletic wonder, but one that will defy players for years to come is that ccmpiled by Fred Perry in tennis before he deserted the ama-

_teur ranks to travel and joust with Ellsworth Vines for the world’s

professional crown. The two kings of the court will carry their feud into Indianapolis when they face each other at Butler Fieldhouse next Monday night. Ten years after he saw his first game of tennis in London, Perry had won his first world’s championship and within four years established a world-wide record of championships unequalled in the record books. . © . In the span of a single year he collected the national championships of no less than seven different countries on his travels.

Cac DUTCH LONBORG of Northwestern University plans to conduct an intensive spring basketball practice to develop new men to replace four veterans who will be lost by graduation in June. . . . The departing stars are Jake Nagode, center, and Jean Smith, Fred Trenkle ‘and Mike McMichael, forwards. . . . This quartet comprised the bulwark of the Wildcat offense for the past three years.

-.. . The only returning veterans next season will be three guards,

Ad Vance, Jim Currie and Bob Voights. * Successors for the graduating lettermen will come, for the most part, from this year’s freshman ranks. ... Most promising forwards among the newcomers are Dick Peil of South Bend, Albert Butherus of Mafyville, Mo., and Leigh Gassler of Chicago. Don McCarnes of Logansport, Ind., a brother of Bob McCarnes, captain of the 1932 team, was the outstanding center prospect on the freshman squad. . . . Bob Shepard of Oak Park and George Benson of Hammond are regarded as the best of the freshman guards.

After a night featured by the furious sprinting of Jules Audy and Ernst Buhler, the second annual Indianapolis six-day bicycle race en-

tered its second day today with the

Americans, Jimmy Walthour and Freddie Ottevaere, still in front by a narrow margin. Although 38 points back of the Audy-Buhler team in sprint points, Walthour and Ottevaere were one lap ahead of these two and the LePage-Wambst and Van KempenZach pairs. Audy and Buhler and Henri LePage and Fernand Wambs® gained a lap during last night's jamming while the McNauwens-Rodak - duo fell back a lap and Freddie Spencer and Tommy Flynn, tied for second yesterday, dropped three laps off the pace. It was Audy, the handsome blond “Montreal Flyer,” who kept the crowd roaring as he maintained a searing pace, refusing to let his rivals slow down to normal speed. Frequently alternating with his Swiss partner, Buhler, Audy won sprint after sprint with headlong stretch drives and, between sprints, constantly forced the pace.

- Hanson in Two Mishaps

Bud Hanson of Minneapolis, a member of the last-place team, figured in two accidents at the west turn. Early in the evening, he skidded off the upper edge of the turn into Ernst Buhler and both piled up on the flat. After an 18-minute delay, during which a broken blood vessel in Hanson's arm was treated, both men returned to the race. Hanson hadn’t completed his first lap after returning to the boards until he hit the west turn and sent down again. This time, however, he was alone in back of the field and was soon up and on his way again.

Baugh, P. Dean Sent to Minors

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. April 5 (U. P.).—Branch Rickey, general manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, announced today that Sammy Baugh, All-America football star, had been released to Columbus of the American Association, and that Paul Dean, righthanded pitcher, had signed a contract and accepted a transfer to Houston of the Texas League. Baugh, who played several exhibition games at third base for the Cardinals, will be prepped as a shortstop at Columbus, according to, Frank Frisch, Cardinal manager. Paul Dean, one time star, had retired after injuring his arm and failed to develop his old-time speed in training. Through, at least temporarily as a big leaguer, he accepted transfer to the minors as the start of a comeback attempt. ————————— —————————

Cubs, Pirates, Cards Figure - To Give Terrymen Another Hard Battle. By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent TAMPA, Fla., April 5.—Any n ber of things can and may happen

in the National League pe race this season. It may not

ibe a traditional

the stretch neck and neck, whole setup is unpredictable. Bill Terry says the Giants are a cinch to repeat. The evidence points to a different story but Terry has been right so often in his calculations the last few years that it’s almost treason to go against him. If one club runs away with the flag, it seems to be certain that itl will be the Giants, Cubs or Cardinals. No other club seems to have possibilities | of dominating the league, even with all the breaks. There seems to be an excellent chance for a shakeup in the National League’s “Big Four”’—the Giants, Cubs, Pirates and Cardinals, who have dominated the first divjsion for the last three years. They all have s0 many ifs, ands and buts connected with them that the loss of one key player and a few tough breaks could put them down with the ‘| daisies. .

A new Optimist League record belonged to veteran Jess Pritchett today after his last night's bombardment which enabled him to spreadeagle the local bowling field. Rolling at his own alleys, Pritchett eclipsed his Feb. 7 mark of 696 by 30 pins as he climbed to 726 with games of 265, 185 and 276.

Picard Captures Masters’ Title

AUQUSTA, Ga, April 5 (U. P.) — Henry Picard went home with $1500 prize money today after scoring around 70 for four strenuous rounds in the fifth masters’ golf tournament. Leading by a stroke as he went into the stretch yesterday, Picard swelled his margin to two, for an aggregate of 285, three under par for the 72 holes. His rounds of 72-71-72-70 were too much for Lighthorse Harry Cooper,

SAVANNAH, Ga., April 5 (U. P.). —Outfielder George Davis, who has

Reds for the last seven years,

“jumped” the Cincinnati club and

arrived in Savannah from Tampa

for an exhibition game, Davis boarded another train for his home in Bridgeport, Conn. The Reds are seeking a right-handed hitting outfielder to replace him.
