Tribe Prospects for Husky
'WreCking Brigade
Appear Bright.
MATTHEWS STILL AWAY
Wild May Have Tough Time
With Competitors.
BY EDDIE ASH
Times SDorts Editor


PLANT CITY, Fla, March g.
Well, at any rate the Indians won't
return north this spring lacking
punch in their outf1eld, something
that always proved the big worry
of Tribe training trips of the past.
The Hoosier hopefulS have seven
f1y-chasers bidding for positions
and several of the crew are known
for their ability to massage the
horSehide. It's a certainty, there
fore, that Owner Perry and Man
ager Bethel have produced Superbly
in that department.
Take a glimpse at the list, Layne,
Jacobson, Mueller, Russell, Walsh,
Matthews and Anderson. Five are
right-handed batters and two swing
from the other side of the plate.
And if Manager Bethel doesn't mold
a Wrecking brigade out of that
collection everybody viii have missed
their guess.
Based on what SIX of the number
have been showing III Plant City,
the prediction is that further efforts
to bolster the garden lineup will not
be needed. Wild Matthews hasn't
reported yet, but his value is chiefly
defensive and he may have tough
shedding to land a regular berth if
Bill Jacobson and Walter Mueller
continue to display the form they
have been showing here.
Two more drills were to be held
today, but Bruno Bethel decided to
pass up another ball game between
the divided squad. Arms of some
Of the pitchers are sore and the
Tribe pilot was short of mound
talent for a contest.
In Thursdays pastiming Steve
Swetonic nosed out the Bruno Bet
zels in fracas of eight innings, 8
TO 8. Bethel captained one crew
and Swetonic the other, in place
Of Coach Corridor, who umpired.
The big moment of the Thursday
tilt was the last inning when the
Swetonics rallied for six runs to win
after being on the short end, to 3.
Andersons double drove home the
tieing and winning runs after two
out. Pug Cavet's offerings were
slaughtered as his support cracked.
Herman Asher, Minnesota rookie,
was the shining light Of the after
noon session. He poled three singles
and a double and played bang-up
game at shortStop for the SwetonicS
Asher played third Wednesday and
short Thursday, and he will be tried
at second later to give the club Of
ficials an idea of his all-round
skill. He looks like a find" for
future development. He figured in
three double plays Thursday.
Southpaw Yde hurled six innings
for the Betzels Thursday, the long
est stretch any hurler has at
tempted in camp. He was touched
for only five hits in the six stanzas.
He got two-base hit also and his
form at the plate indicates he is a
pitcher who can bat much better
than the average hurler

MOJAVE WELLS, Cal, March 9.
-Thirty-three miles of dry, hot and
sparcely settled desert country to-
day was ahead of the athletes run
ming from Los Angeles to New York
for $4,000 in prizes offered by G. G.
Pyle. Many athletes chose not to
start today, the desert having
sapped their strength. The next
stop is Bagdad.
Thursday the runners covered
the thirty-one miles from Barstow
to Mojave Wells. The walkers, who
believe they will be able to reach
New York with their heel and toe
art as quickly as the trotters, gained
on the runners Thursday. The heat
of the desert would not allow full
speed, and the marathoners had to
slow down to a shuttle that was but
little faster than a walk.
Arthur Newton, a pioneer
marathoner of South Africa, was
leading the field.

with the defeat. Roberts and Boone
shared the mound duty for the Swe-
tonics.
Boone appears to be an improved
twirler over last spring. His fast
ball has more zip and his deceptive
curve is working again.
Swetonic proved a capable captain
Thursday by accepting twelve of thir-
teen chances at second base. That's 20
ing some for a pitcher doing duty as an
inhelder.
Errors by Layne and Warstler
proved Cavet's downfall in the final
inning. otherwise Pug would have
escaped defeat.

poled two safe. Layne crashed triple

No Al-American
Berths In Sight
For Michigan u.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Oct. 1S.-R
-Michigan's great string Of consec-
utive All-Ameriea selections sppar-
emily will be broken this year.
Not since 1920 has Michigan failed
to place a player on the first myth
ical team, n record of which few
schools can boast.
But this year the only candidate
with even an outside chance for All
America berths appear to be George
Rich, captain and full back and 'Trus'
Truskowski, center.
Starting in 1921 when Ernie Wick
was picked for the center position,
Michigan has produced six All-Amer-
lea FASTENERS. The others were Har-
ry Kipke, in 1922; Jack Blot, 1928;
Edliff Slaughter, 1924; Bonnie Oos-
terbaan, 1925 and Bonnie Friedman
in 1926. Oosterbaan also made the
team in 1926 and 1927.
Kipke gained universal recognition
in his junior year while Wick. Fried
nan and Slaughter all were seniors
when chosen for the All-America.
Oosterbaan, a. noted, made it in each
of his three seasons of play.
Kipke was a halfback; Friedman,
quarterback; Slaughter, guard; Oos-
terbaan, end and Wick and Blot, CEN

Childers Talks
To Lions Club

c. l.. Childers was speaker of the
dav at the Lions club luncheon held
this noon at the Barbara Worth,
giving a very interesting talk on
Washington and on the recent ses-
sion of the House and Senate. He
spoke of the favorable position the
Boulder Dam bill occupies in the
Senate and compared it with the
Panama canal legislation, which
took 10 years to pass, while the
Boulder Dam project, if successful
next session will have passed i'll
six years. Childers paid Congress
man Phil Swing tribute, and de-
clared that he is highly respected
by his fellow members of the house.
He also lauded Senator Hiram
Johnson for his efforts in keeping
the bill before the Senate.
Interesting features of the ma
tion s capitol were described by the
speaker, who declared it is a
q spring city, made beautiful by
the thousands of cherry trees which
are in fun bloom during the Easter
season and attract annually $4,000
VISITORS. That Washugton is n
city of big business was brought out
by Mr.. Childers in his description
of some Of the departments and the
immense amount Of business that is
transacted by such departments as
War Risk Insurance. Interior De
partment and Federal Reserve. He
was also impressed by the hospital
ity offered visitors by all public
service departments.

HOOVER ACTIVELY

BY KENNETH CRAWFORD
{ United Press Staff Correspondent,


WASHINGTON, July l0.-Her-
bert Hoover, hitherto regarded by
politicians as an executive genius
with little or no knowledge of the
mysteries of their profession, ap-
peared today to be taking over act
i've management Of his own presi.
Dental campaign. He will open it
officially with his notification cere-
mony and speech August II in Cali
fornia
The Republican campaign maehin-
cry, now virtually ready for oper-
alton is understood by observers to
be of Hoover design. Nothing like
it ever has been seen before in ma
tional politics.
The underlying principle of the
machine appears to be "centralized
authority with decentralized rcspon-
sibilitv.'
Titles have been reduced to a
necessary minimum in the new or
ganization. Chairman Work of the
national committee and former Gov
ernor Harry j. Allen of Kansas,
publicity manager of the national
committee, are the only titled of.
ficials in the Washington headquar-
ters, and there is but one other in
the country, James Good, western
manager.
Instead of appointing Senator
Moses of New Hampshire eastern
manager, as anticipated, he was ap.
pointed to committee in charge of
the eastern campaign without a
definite title and with but hazily
defined duties.
