A LOT OF AGE ADORNS TEAM

BOSTON'S BEES lost a tough one in 13 innings to the Reds yesterday but the defeat didn’t knock the Stengelites out of first place. . .. They still are hanging in there much to the surprise of the experts. . .. The management has surrounded himself with seasoned pastimers, some of whom were thought washed up. Al Simmons, outfielder, is 35: Johnny Cooney, outfielder, 37; Rabbit Warstler, infielder, 34; Tony Cuccinello, infielder, 31; Deb Garmes, infielder-outfielder, 30; Al Todd, ratcher, 31 and Al Lopez, catcher, 30. Combining the mound staff you'll find Milt Shoffner, 33; Danny MacFayden, 32; Jim Turner, 32; Lou Fette, 32. Manager Stengel likes "em mellow with just a sprinkling of youth here and there. . .. So far he's got by all right and the new season promises to be a financial success for last year's fifth-placers.

He's Grateful to the Game

L SIMMONS is one ball player who is grateful to the game and the big money to be earned in the majors. . . . A Milwaukee sandlot product, Al came up from nothing to become one of the sports best swatters. “If it wasn't for baseball I'd just be a guy named Al Zymanski working for about $150 a month,” Simmons told a Boston newspaper pal recently. “My father died when I was a little boy. There were seven children in the family and it was tough scratching for my mother and us older children to keep body and soul together “There were days when we didn't have enough food, but my mother was so brave about it that she kept up our spirits. Baseball swept away poverty from Mom Zymanski and the Zyvmanski children, “I can remember, as though it were only yesterday, that I came home with my first year's salary with the Athletics. Connie Mack paid me $4250. I laid 20 $100 bills in my mother's lap. She was so

McLemore Moves Out On a Limb, So He Says, And |] Picks Johnstown

Getting More Desperate, He Selects Challedon Next, Technician Third.

By HENRY M'LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

LOUISVILLE, May 6.—~The Clan McLemore has been a desperate one since what I am pleased to call time immemorial—famed for forlorn hopes, charges up shell-swept slopes and excursions upon limbs which

would not support a well-starved ant. So you will not be in the least surprised to learn that Henry of that line is choosing Johnstown to| win’ the Kentucky Derby. Of course, a citizen here and there is also swaying toward Johnstown-—-the loathesome copy cats—and his price has lengthened to 3 to 5. Yes, we are out upon this fragile bit of timber and we are willing to remain there, unless you really mind too much. It's really a comfortable limb —air-conditioned with all the com=« forts of home and half a dozen others home never thought of.

Kansas City’s pitchers couldn't (find the plate and walked 10 men (while yielding 12 hits to give the victory to Columbus, 9-7. A ninthinning rally fell short, but netted

She never had seen that much money at one time in her life. “As time went on and my salary wag increased, I built mother a fine home in Milwaukee and endowed her with a bank account so that she enjoyed every comfort money could buy. “Now, I am married and have a little son. He will have u college education which I couldn't have.
