With the infant baseball season
Of 1928 entering its second week
today, unexpected strength has de-
veloped in the western section of
the American League.
The Cleveland Indians, finding soft
pickings in the toothless Tigers, have
passed the st. Louis Browns and
are now perched in second place.
The Forest City outfit is the first
club in either league to win five
games.
Good pitching by Messrs. Uhle,
Shaute, Hudlin, ct al, has given the
Indians a better start than their
supporters had anticipated. Two
rockies. Lind at second base, and
Langford in center field. are COM
ing along nicely. The old guard
Burns. Jameson, Stamina. and the
Sewell brothers, are enjoying a new
lease of life.
Cleveland handed the Tigers
their sixth defeat yesterday, TO
4. Jack Tavener, Detroit midget,
got his annual home run. Paul
Easterling, obtained by the
Tigers from Seattle, was sub.
stituted for robust Robert FOtIl-
ergilI i'm the Detroit OutfieId and
delivered three hits.
The White Sox won another vic
tory, to 2, at the expense of the
st. Louis Browns, who dropped to
fourth place. Ted Lyons was effec.
tive in the pinches.
The Chicago Cubs are beginning
to live up to their training camp
reputation. They jumped to second
place in the National League by
nosing out the Cardinals in the
tenth, 3 to 2. Percy Jones, the
slender southpaw, outpitched Alex
ander the Great and scored the win
ming run on Cuyler's single. Earl
Webb. understudy for Chicago's
home run hitter, Hack Wilson, hit
his second homer of the season.
Nearly $4,000 fans are expected
to jam Wrigley Field today when
the Cubs open their home season
| against Cincinnati,

other teams idle yesterday.

 Detroyat is almost as tall as Lind bergh and nearly as thin. He is, pro- fessionally. one of Lindbergh's most ardent admirers. He says he mere ly intends to do some long distance flights across Europe. but his friends believe that if the plane gives satis- faction in these tests he will not de- lay long in getting started for New York. And, like Lindbergh, he will fly alone.

 Since he became acquainted with Lindbergh and carefully inspected the Spirit Of St. Louis," Detroyat has supervised the construction of a new model of an Avimeta-9o, which now appears surprisingly like Lind bersh's machine. It is an all-metal monoplanc, beautifully -lined, and driven by a 2o0-horsepower Wright WhirWind motor The De- troyat design is a single-seater.
 The new machine has been a mys- tery plane carefully guarded at the military field at Le Bougret. F.x- penses of building it and for any flights it will make are being met by the firm of BoZon-Verduraz. man. ufacturers of macaroni, the chief

LITTLE INTEREST
 IN MASS. PRIMARY
Chances of Getting Out Big Vote
 Today Are Slim

Boston, April 2i P>-Massachu set,s voters today were privileged for the first time in the history of the commonwealth to express. unre- strictedly, their presidential prefer cnces
 Despite that fact, quiet cam- paign in which the names of Gov. Alfred F.. Smith Of New York and Herbert Hoover, secretary of Con- merce, predominated in the demo- cratic and republican fields, respec- lively, held little promise of a heavy turnout.
 An added damper on the vote was seen in the continued rain early to- day which. following two successive days of doWnpour. threatened to cut the vote below normal in the less thickly populated sections of the state.
 Gov. AlNan T. Fuller's last minute appeal for republican support in be- half of Hoover was the sole high light in the closing hours of the campaign. Voting preferences eN- pressed in todays election will not, however. be binding on either dele gation to the national convention.
 The democrats will elect eight delegates at large and 64 district delegates, each of the latter having q half a vote. The republicans will send delegates at large and 32 dis trict delegates. of whom each will have a full vote.
 The republicans are to be rnpledg cd but many have expressed prefer ,nce for Hoover. The majority of the democratic candidates are pledged to Gov. Smith.
 Both delegate at large states were challenged by an ''outsider.' the Rev. Feredericll l.. Anderson of the Newton Theological Institution. sought place on the republican slate. Mayor Lawrence F. Cuigley, of Chelsea, a smith supporter. who was denied the right to use the designation of the regular slate on the ballot, wanted a place on the democratic lineup.
 Besides these, several local con- tests were to be settled by the vot CTS. Polling places were to open all the way from 6 a. m. to ?. m. and to close from 4 p. m. to 9 D. m. READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS
