BOWLING

Two more bowling matches in the new 25 man contest have been ar- ranged for at Genlot's and a number of others are in the making. To- night two teams representing the American Brass will line up to de- termine the factory championship. Don Walkers Office league recruited for the main part from the General Offices will be on one side and the Wednesday night league on the other. The office men are the more youthful aggregation but their op- ponents have maturity and experi- ence in their favor. The Wednesday night league have a number of old timers at the business and quite a few that can talk good game as well as roll one so the contest should be an even one.
 The Genlot Ambassadors who might be doing worse in the Con- necticut Duckpin league will be at home tonight to the Derby Schincels instead of Thursday as previously stated. On Monday they took two out of three from the Derbyites and hope to do as we'll tonight. The players are requested to be on hand early enough to make start moi later than 8:15.

Brotherly Rivalry

DrOtlitfAy IASdAr8
 Bob Johnson, breaking in as a rookie with the As this year. says he decided to take up baseball be- cause his brother (Roy, of the Ti- gers) got away with it. Bob says he always played better ball than his brother on the California sandlots. How long has this been going on?" he asked himself when brother Roy made good with the Tigers. l. He used to be a pitcher, but brother Roy told him it was lots nicer to play in the out field. you didn't have to throw so much and you got to bat more Bob's skin is deep copper, showing the Indian blood in his veins.
 Jumbo Jim's First Game
 Jumbo Jim Elliott, traded from the Robins to the Phils, began his base ball career on the lots in St Louis. <. It was Charlie Barrett, scout for the Cardinals, who saw pitching possibilities in Jim. Charlie sent him to Belleville, III, to heave Q Sunday game. it was $40 win; $25 lose. .. Jim in those days was an amateur, so he pitched at Belle- vile under the name of Driver. Bob Groom, she former great Wash ington hurler, was his opponent. |. so Jim took the $40 and became a pitcher. he came to the Phils via the Browns, Terre Haute and Brooklyn.

wen Thought.

Jurges, the only newcomer, is re- garded by Hornsby as 'the best in- field prospect in the majors, and is almost certain to win a regular berth. Should he fail to live up to expectations, English will be re- turned to short with Lester Bell re- taining his third base post.
 Bell was flop last season and third base was the weak spot in the Cubs machine. English has had considerable experience at the "hot corner" and if Jurges fulfills his training camp promise the Cubs will be stronger on the left side of their infield than at any time during the last decade.
 Moore on Bench?
 Cuyler, Hartnett, Wilson and Grimm rate with the best in the league at their respective positions. Stephenson, a veteran, is expected to retain his position against the strong challenge of Johnny Moore, Coast league rookie.
 Hornsby's return is certain to in- crease the offensive power of the team. The slugging manager is expected to hit nearly 100 points more than Blair, his substitute of last year. Blair, will be retained for utility roles.
 Mound Crew Strong.
 The Cubs pitching strength has been increased by the addition of three established major league pitchers. Bob Smith, Les Sweetland and Jakie May and several promis- ing rockies. Charley Roots throw ing arm has completely recovered and with Maloney, Blake, Bush and Teachout all showing good form the Cubs boast an adequate mound staff.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-04-02

The Cubs are expected to lineup for the opening of the championship season as follows:
 Cuyler-right field. English-third base. Hornsby-second base. Wilson-center field. Stephenson-left field. Hartnett-catch.
 Grimm--first base. Jurges-s11ortstop.
