AX MACON, the Louis Cardinals new southpaw, hails from the same habitat as Bill Herman, Cubs’ slugger, New Albany, . Milburn Shofiner, Bees’ southpaw, had a one-for-the-book exp to his before the National League season started. On April 11 he allowed Washington 17 hits and 12 runs in a full nineinning game and was the winning pitcher. The answer is that the Bees that day made 19 hits and 19 runs. It ppened in Gastonia, N. C. ” ”
RT FLETCHER, New York Yankee coach, was explaining why A Joe DiMaggio wears his pants so low... . "Joe is a low-ball hitter, and all low-ball hitters usually wear their pants down close to the ground.” When Earl Combs asked Gomez came through with the red noses,” replied El Goofy. o n u ~ENE TUNNEY, who visited Washington yesterday in his capacity ¥ of business executive to discuss liquor taxes with Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr. got sidetracked temporarily to the subject of prize fighting and the forthcoming Joe Louis-Max Schmeling match. Tunnev said Schmeling will go into the battle “inspired with the zeal and feeling of supremacy of the new order in Germany” . . . Louis, however, has emerged from his slump of two years ago, Tunney said, and he refused to predict which one would win. . . . The ex-champion said the only thing that will prevent the fight from being the greatest in years will be a quick knockout. Louis’ right hand packs more power than Schmeling’s right ex-champion said. bu: Scimeling’s right “more educated.” . 3 Schmeling, Tunney said, will go into the fight with mental confidence and buovancy. . .. "If he doesn't win, he better not go back to Hitler,” Gene added. » ENRY ARMSTRONG will have to hand Barney Ross a terrific pasting in New York. May 26, to make the welterweight champion retire. . And Barney the Bridegroom doesn’t believe that he'll be belted about. “Only my mother has asked me when I will quit,” says the Chicago boy, in reply to the report that he intended shortly to call it a career. “I tell her that I'll know when I'm through. I'll know when I'm getting smacked too often, and when my legs are softening up. “I don't have to fight for money any more, but there are good money shots staring me in the face now—Armstrong and Lou Ambers. “When I do retire, I hope I'll never have to do a Benny Leonard oe. attempt a comeback without a leg under me. Necessity was Leonard's trouble, but I can go into business with my father-in-law.” In promising the fistic trade plenty of pyrotechnics, Ross points out that Armstrong everiastingly charges in, and asserts that it's 1000 to 1 that Barney Ross will hit back and not back water. “The fight's a natural because of styles,” says Ross, who is installed at his favorite camp at Ferndale, N. Y.

CUBS ON GIANTS HEELS AS REDS FLOURISH
Dean Mystery Still Puzzles Loop Experts
Dizzy Retires After Seven Rounds; Cincy Annexes Fourth Straight.
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, May 4—There was plenty of food for thought today in rehashing the results of the season's first East-West intersectional games. Let's run down the line:
NATIONAL LEAGUE
1. Cubs lick Phillies, 5-2, move within 2'; games of the league-leading Giants, but Dizzy Dean retires with another “kink” in his arm after seven innings. 2. Reds hammer out a 10-2 triumph over the Giants, extending their winning streak to four straight and snapping New York's string at 11. The triumph elevates Cincinnati to the first division. 3. Brooklyn beats Pittsburgh, 7-2, to break a three-game losing streak and hand the Pirates their fifth straight setback. Rookie Forest Pressnell, the “finger nail king,” wins his third game, 4. Cardinals nose out 3-2,

Armstrong in Camp Training For Ross Bout
Feather Champ Confident of Giving Welter King Hard Fight.
NEW YORK, May 4 (U. P.).—= Marse Henry Armstrong, our some= what overgrown featherweight champion, returned to Bruiser Boulevard today after a month's vacation, to start training for his welterweight title fight with Barney Ross on May 26. When the bull-shouldered, brownskinned knockout artist stepped off the train from Cleveland he told reporters, “that rest was just what I needed. My hands are in fine shape again. I'm eager to get back into the ring. And I've put on enough poundage so Ross won't have much of a weight advantage over me.” He spent most of his vacation at Hot Springs, Ark. Henry will open camp at Pomp=ton Lakes, N. J. today, scaling about 139 pounds. He expects to pare off only about three pounds before tangling with Ross in their 15-round brawl at Madison Square Garden bowl. Never before has he weighed so much. Barney . will register about 142,
Not Afraid of Weight
Will this adaitional avoirdupois slow down the 126-pound ruler when he meets Ross? “No, jt'll probably make me faster,” Armstrong replied. “I'll be fighting at ful’. strength—no drying out or any thing like that to weaken me. I'l 4 be stronger than ever and hitting harder than ever.” But if he weighs 136 pounds for Ross—10 pounds above featherweight limit—can “Homicide Henry” ever scale down to 126 again for a | defense of his feather crown? The Los Angeles Negro wasn't sure about that. He said: “Later on I might accept a feath= erweight title match, with the provision that if I couldn't make 126 pounds, we would fight at catch weights and I would give up the | title,”
