TECH, WESTERN
LAUNCH SERIES

With the football and basket
ball titles already slowed safely
away, Tech makes its bid today
for the interhish baseball cham
pionship when it meets Western
in the opening series clash.
Close fans Of the scholastic
mines feel that Tech has an
excellent chance of gaining it's
objective. They base their opinion
upon the strong right arm OF
Capt. Benny Spigel, ace Of the
Tech mound staff, and his
capable understudieS. Roland
Price and Everett Russell. This
trio form a capable corps Of
curvers; good enough, Tech sup
porters feel, to make the going
plenty tough for their four rivals.
SpigeI, who played right
field mostly last season be-
cause "TAck" EnsOr did the
majority Of Techs pitching.
saw sufficient service to gain
plenty Of experience and
knowledge Of the various hit
terS on the other teams. This
knowledge combined with his
natural res~urcefulness may
prove Just the deciding factor
in Techs behalf.
Andy Payne, who many con-
slider the best scholastic pitcher
in the city, is to do the mound
chores for Western, so there is a
bright prospect Of today's game
resulting in q warm pitching duel.
However, it may turn out to be
wild scoring spree, too. One can
never tell what these high school
mines will do; the dope counts
for very little when these rivals
square off and begin battling.
Claude Rosenburger'S homer in
the ninth spoiled prospects Of an
extra inning game and returned
Washington Lee high school an

Lees third straight win since los

AIMING
At RUTH'S
crown

BROOKLYN, April 291--Charley
Klein yaw1ed a bit wearily as he
polished up the homerun crown
that he won last year. Charley
is z bit bored over all the chat
Of the alleged feud said to be
raging between him and Melvin
OFT.
But If there is a feud, and the
Giants really feel that way about
it, why Klein will just let nature
take its. course. He isn't stepping
away from anything. AS a mat
ter of fact Klein is not interested
in the Giants. Nor OFT. Nor
anything nor anyone in the Ma
tional League. He's shooting ag
Babe Ruth, the homerun king OF
the universe.
In the flush Of spring and all
that sort Of thing, Klein felt
pretty cocxy over his start on
the quest Of world laonors in
homerun hitting. He has three
to his credit in the six games
played thus far.
Last year he hit 43 homers
for q new National League
record, and he didn't hit his
third until May 10, and
SwetOnic, Of the Pirates, was
his victim. So Chuck is just
two weeks ahead Of his home
run schedule.
# Klein gets any more con.
fident and his batting keeps pace
with his confidence, or shall We
call it developed ego, he is apt
to break all standing records, to
say nothing Of the outfield fences
Klein said:
'Tm out in front Of Ruth
now. and all he has to do q
catch me. I'm not worrying
haven't any cause for worry.
'sn the games are played aud
the pitchers pitch to me, why.
IN keep cutting and SIasting

not bOasting; TIM Just sure /
can do it.

I had my cut ut 4 lot of stuff
that wouldn't even interest me

ure can pole q lot Of them
out Of the lot. I'm naturally .

Klein is just q real good hitter.
with . lot Of faith il himself. It
Is the guess OF this writer that he
would have preferred the Phtlar
delphia pitcher to pitch TO OFT
last year rather than walking MIN
every time OFT came to bat. That
bit Of baseball strategy rather
taraished the crown Of Klein, and
he surely didn't seek anything Of
the sort.
