The Cardinals accepted the joke and with 1t game from the Seals. 10 to 8, at San Fran cisco. The Browns, apparently dis grunted, lost to the Cincinnati Reds, ' to 4, after leading in six Of nine innings at Jacksonville, Fla.
 Hornsby, Bottomley and Sherdel received the individual honors in the Cards contest, and a snappy double play by Haincs, Gonzales and Muel- Ter halted a prospective rally of the seals.
 Hornsby's contribution was three solid singles in three trips to bat. Bottomley drove homer over the right field wall in the first inning. Sherdels part in the victory was pitching composed of fast and slow balls.
 A cold wind blew the Browns no good, although it was the heaviest hitting contest of their exhibition tour to date. Ernie Wingard had the Reds beaten. ? to 1, until the seventh when, spurred by an error by Jean Robertson, inficlder, the Reds leaped ahead.

 EVEN FOR SEASON
Won Five Games Out Of Ten
 Against Strong QuiltetS

The A. l.. X, basketball team which ended it's current schedule Tn the game with the Judeans Tuesday night, split even in the seasons games, winning five out of the ten games played.
 The first 5 or games were main ly experimental, as new faces were seen in each game. Kaminicky, who was the pivot around whom the offense worked, had hard time finding an effective scoring partner, until the services of Jasper were se- cured late in the season.
 What these two promising play CTS could do was shown by the re- suits of the last four games, win ming three out of the four games played. and averaging four goals a game apiece. BuCherri and Knapp fitted in perfectly when called upon.
 Sake and Yankaskas were as for midable and hard working a defen- sive pair as could be desired, ably assist ed when needed by Arburr and Politis. At center the A. L. A. had choice of three capable centers in Tuttles, Hoist and Huck.
 Although developing slowly and experiencing much friction among the players in the early games, the team matured into an effective and smooth-working combination, which was strong enough to defeat the Ju- dean team. composed of high school stars: defeat the Waterbury and Higganum teams 3-l, anC to give the exceptionally strong Boys club team one of its stiffest games of the season.
