SPORTS By Eddie Ash
THE American association faces a congestion of
~ double-headers in mid-season as a result of the unex-
pected monsoon that struck the Middle West since opening day last Wednesday. Eighteen games were postponed. Before the eight clubs shifted to other bases today for the league's “second openers” tomorrow, Kansas City had six postponements, Indianapolis five, Louisville four and Milwaukee three,
total, 18.
In the event that Indianapolis is able to retain its nine-man pitching staff, all veteran hurlers, it will be in better shape than its rivals to carry on the double-header burden in mid-summer heat. Due to long jumps, St, Paul was hardest hit in the bankroll department. . . . The Saints traveled from their Springfield, Mo., train

New York Giants in the National league race—for a while at least. He joined the team for the two-game series which opens at Philadelphia and said he would remain with the club until called, which will not be until after May 15 and possibly not until the end of the baseball
season. The 35-year-old outfielder, who has spent more than half of his| lifetime—19 years to be exact—with | the Giants was accepted for general &rmy duty at Camden, N.

Ott said he had no further plans beyond an attempt to keep the team in the winning mood that brought it through the first week of the baseball season with five straight victories in an amazing reversal of form from 1943.

ST. LOUIS, -Mo,, April 25 (U. P)~—The St. Louis Browns,
team in the American league for years, warmed up today for a try tomorrow against’ Cleveland at the circuit's record for a seasonopening winning streak. Steve Sundra, with one victory to his credit, will pitch the Browns’ seventh game of the season, a game that can tie the record for opening wins now held by the New York Yankees, or can drop the! club back into that familiar limbo of “almost did.” It was. an important week for the Browns ag Manager Luke Sewell sent his team through a brisk workout today after a day of rest from winning their first six games.

Welch is the last prominent Irish pugilist still tossing leather; what with Billy Conn, Red Cochrane, Bobby Ruffin, etc., in service, Important Victory Welch—so completely Irish that his face is a compromise between | the late Philadelphia Jack O'Brien | land Jimmy Braddock—pounded out! an eight-round decision over Vic Dellicurti, New York middleweight. It was an important victory for Coleman Patrick Bernard Welch. It was a close, crowd-pleasing fight, and Welch himself was delighted that he had won, because it was his first victory on the come-back trail, after losing to rugged Jake LaMotta at Boston on March 17—of all days. Managed by Chick Hayes Welch was delighted; so was his manager, little Chick Hayes, who came swinging out of Indianapolis around 1908 to fight the best of the world’s bantams. In his victory over Dellicurti, Coley showed flashes of the same form that had distinguished him before entering the coast guard, in which he served for almost 14 months. This last of the prominent Irish scrappers hopes to become the No. 1 civilian 160-pounder by flicking Lloyd Marshall and LaMotta. He craves this distinction so that brother Paul, a marine sergeant in New Guinea, will get it by short wave, and perhaps brother Frankie of the marines will hear of it in his Japanese prison camp No. 2 in the Philippines—if still alive.
