2 Ball Players in. Prison— But Just to Help Warden

FOLSOM PRISON, Cal., Feb. 22 (U. P.)—Two players of the Sacramento Club® of the Pacific Coast Baseball League entered Folsom Prison today—not for crimes committed but because the prison baseball team wanted an even break with a team of all-stars it is playing. The prisoners-for-a-day were Fred Kienly and his battery mate, Catcher George Lial. With them will be seven hard-hitting, faststepping infielders and outfielders who were sent up for “this, that and the other,” not for errors committed on the diamond. In fact, Warden ‘Clyde L.

mer expected his “Black Sheep” to beat the all-stars whose team is managed by Bennie Borgmann and will feature the hitting of Dick Bartell of the Chicago Cubs, it was alleged. Plummer’s “boys” lost their star pitcher (by graduation) a short time ago and Borgmann agreed on ringers Kienly and Lial.

Replaces Prison Outfit

Plummer invited Borgmann'’s outfit for today’s game to replace the usual opposing prison team. It was

rumored that he was prodded to choose the “outside” team by one Chick Galloway, a lifer who edits the prison weekly sports paper, the Folsom Sports-Telegram. Galloway, it was alleged, campaigned for the all-star game in his paper, but the grapevine had it that Warden Plummer himself was at the botom of the move. ‘A year ago Plummer wanted Ellsworth Vines and Fred Perry “in” for a tennis exhibiton before his charges, but somehow it fell through. Plummer is a red hot sports fan. Currently the baseball team w his pride. Today's game will be wi nessed by 2900 “spectators,” all rabid fans. The warden will toss out the first ball, which will be autographed by all on both teams who can write. The ball then will be presented to Bartell’'s 7-year-old son, who is to be honorary batboy for the all-stars.

Lineups for Today

The all-star lineup in addition to Bartell at short; Stan Hack, Chicago Cubs, third base; Joe Marty, Cubs, left field; Hank Steinbach, Chicago White Sox, center field; Gus Suhr, Pittsburgh Pirates, first base; Myril Hoag, St. Louis Browns, right field; Alex Kampouris, New York Giants, second base; Bill Salkeld, San Francisco Seals, catcher, and Tony Freitas, Sacramento Solons, pitcher. The “Black Sheep”: Wright, third; Humes, second; Therell, center field; Harris, shortstop; Lial, catcher: Johnson, right field; Roy, first base; Raymond, left field; Kienly, pitcher, and John Doe, water boy. Umps will be donated by the Pacific Coast

said. “But I make no predictions on how many games I'll win.” “If he doesn't win 20 games this season. I'll trade him to Van Meter,” interjected C. C. Slapnicka, vice president of the Indians and next door neighbor of the Feller family at the swell-elegant one-floor stucco Minolo apartments. Still evading predictions, Bob, who likes his base hits as well as any pitcher in the game, El Goofy Gomez and Dizzy Dean included, suggested a special batting practice field for pitchers so they could learn the various arts of batting, such as “laying ’em down,” sacrificing and “stepping into ‘em.” * “The pitchers don’t get enough practice in the batter’s box,” he asserted. : Fox, Gehringer Toughest

Porter's Mite Bucks Jinx i in Anita Derby

Favored 3-Year-0ld in Field Of 16 for Rich Coast Race Today.

p—— SANTA ANITA PARK, ARCADIA, Cal., Feb. 22 (U. P)—A holiday crowd of 50,000 jammed this racing

|plant ‘today to see whether a stout

little colt appropriately named Porter’s Mite could break the jinx on favorites in the rich Santa Anita Derby. As from

customers gathered

‘|throughout Southern California for

the fifth running of the $50,000 conditions were hand. tail-

casion with a warm sun and bright blue sky and crews of workmen had put the racing strip in crisp, fast condition. The race is the West's big annual

|test of 3-year-olds, and no horse {yet has gone to the post in this

derby a favorite and come home with the prize. ' What He’s Up Against The odds on the morning line stood firm at 5-2 that, tradition be hanged, when they reached the wire the mighty Mite would be jout in front of the nine colts, three geldings and three fillies named to go against him. Here are the 15 horses he had to beat: Norman Church’s Sweet Nancy, John Hay Whitney’s Shining One, the Taggart Stable’s Yale O’Nine, Mrs. Frank Carreaud’s Time Alone, Alfred: G. Vanderbilt’s Impound, Race Riot and Hysterical; C. M. Willock’s Arjac, King Ranch’s Ciencia, Mrs. A. Sabath’s Say Judge, Neil McCarthy's Morning : Breeze, L. T. Whitehill’s Teddy Kerry, Fairmount Stable’s Bubbling 3oy, A. A. Baroni’s Touch and Go, and Mrs. B. Franzheim’s Xalapa Clown. Porter's Mite was the choice of all form players — film stars in the lavish turf club, society leaders in the grandstand, the butcher and baker in the infield. Winner of the Belmont Futurity and the Champagne Stake, the latter race in world record time, W. E. Boeing’s bay colt has done everything asked and appeared the solid bet.

Others Backed Heavily

The Mite was the heavy choice, but not the only one. More cynical sources remembering dark-horse victories of Gillie in 1935, He Did in 1936, Fairy Hill in 1937 and Stagehand in 1938, banked on the colt Impound and two fillies, Sweet Nancy and Ciencia. These three

{drew support because they have

proven ability in the stretch, the question mark in the son of the Porter’s record. Impound, second to Porfer’s Mite in the Champagne, conquered him in a $10,000 stake two weeks ago. Couplied with Race Riot and Hysterical as a Vanderbilt entry, he was second choice on the line at 3-1. Sweet Nancy, winner of another $10,000 event and second by a nose in a third, was considered the better of the fillies, who may upset the theory ladies don’t win in the spring. She and Ciencia have one marked advantage—they were given only 115 pounds against 120 for male brethren. -
