Ear Ornaments Get
Cnchet of Paris

PARIS, April 81 G.N.S0.-Your
ears must be sparkling diamonds,
if you would be chic in Paris
today. They might be red rubies
if you happen to be wearing a
lovely red gown, or emeralds with
a green one, but in every case
the ears must be trimmed this
spring, in the evening.
The newest novelty is the ear
ornament which fastens with an
invisible screw behind the lobe
and then delicately follows the
outline of the ear in any jewel
one happens to prefer.

Cincinnati get a hot box.
This may be a year of de-

bleacher seats in the spring.
You can't even start a bread

customers are lining up at the
ticket windows.

make them, or the are break

MAKES SHIFTS
ON SHORT
NOTICE
BY JOE HOLMAN

"Big Fred" Marberry, who SO
thoroughly squelched the world
champion Athletics in relief role
recently, will pitch today when
Washington concludes its three
game series with John Collins
Boston Red Sox here.
HOre Lisenbee likely will repre-
sent the visitors.
Following yesterdays decisive
beating, the Griffmen are deter
mined to avenge themselves. This
will be Marberry's first start Of
the season.
No Change in Lineup
The same lineup that has func'
toned so smoothly to date will
carry on throughout the crucial
Philadelphia series starting tomor-
row.
That is unless Heine Manush
has a recurrence of a stomach at
tack which upset him yesterday.
Gameness alone kept Manush
in the lineup. Though visibly
out of condition, he refused to
leave his post.
Should Manush be forced to
vacate the left station-and the
chances are he won't-Harry
Rice probably will shift to that
position while Sam West returns
to center.
Walter OhnSOn Active
A greatly changed Walter john
son is directing the Washington
club nowadays. ,
When Walter was designated
manager of the Griffmen in 1929
many said:
"a wonderful fellow but ne
lacks executive ability"
johnson daily is dispelling such
claims. He makes changes un-
hesitatingly.
He swallows the bitterness of
his mistakes, confesses he makes
them and assumes thorough re-
,sponsibility for job which many
thought he would not be quail
fled.
Hadley To Face AS
Walter is particularly impress
sive as juggler of pitchers.
When he thinks one of his men
is weakening he makes an i'm
mediate switch-yet sticks by
men he thinks can survive their
bumps" That's 100 per cent
management!
Irving Hadley. whose cold has
upset Manager JohnSon'S pitch
ing plans, is being counted upon
to open Washington'S series
against the Athletics in Phila-
delphia tomorrow.
Sam Jones, Lloyd Brown and
either Alvin Crowder or Fred
Marberry are to follow in that
order.
Trainer Mike Martin put a
plaster pad on Hadley's right
shoulder yesterday and predicts
he will be right for tomorrow's
big game.
Foxx May Not Play
A Jimmy Foxxless team may
again confront Washington in
the inaugural of tomorrow's
series at Shibe Park. His strained
leg probably will keep him in
active.
Without Foxx to back up that
COchrane, Simmons, Miller COM
bine the AS are not nearly so
dangerous extensively.
Ad Liska was a jubilant young
man this morning as he headed
for Lincoln, Neb., to have his
aching right arm treated by DR..
Mclean, a surgeon who cured a
similar injury of Liska's in 1927.
He said:
"'DOc' will cure this wing
and / know it. And once the
pain leaves my arm I'll show
you some pitching!"
Liska injured his salary whip
In spring training at Biloxi. A
recent visit to an assistant OF
'Bonesetter' Reese failed to dis
close anything.
Yesterday DOleful
The less said about yesterdays
game the better. Washington lost
13 to 3.
The Red Sox, behind the stable
pitching of young Jack Russell,
cuffed 18 hits.
Berry had one of the biggest
days Of his career, doubling twice
and gathering as many singles.
Hal Rhyme played bang-up ball
afield and harvested a pair of
two-baggers and single.

HEAD OF COAST
LEAGUE STATES
TEAMS STRONGER

LOS ANGELES, April 16. U.P)-
A close and colorful race in the Pa
cific coast league is seen by Harry
A. Williams, president of the cir
cult, who was here today to see the
Los Angeles Angels in action for
the first time.
Il saw some mighty good base
ball in rather unexpected places, .
Williams said today. THAT is,
some of the clubs played much bet
ter ball than the post-season rat
ings given them by many of the
critics.
II saw both the Missions and
Sacramento play topnotch ball
These clubs are mentioned in par
ticular because the tendency seemed
to have been to under-rate them.
Both clubs are hustling.
THE Seals have not yet developed
their full power, but have the abil-
ity and win play up 10 the standard
OF their new stadium, the most
perfect baseball plant I have ever
seen.
Oakland is a good club to watch,
particularly brilliant on the de-
fense. Hollywood has been badly
crippled, but is formidable entry.
Portland has the best club which
has represented that city in a num-
Der of years. 1t has a powerful Of
fense and will be dangerous at all
times. 1t is colorful and has COL
orful manager in Spencer Abbott.
Seattle and Los Angeles are the
only clubs which I have not yet
seen in action. 1 feel confident the
race will be much closer than any
one anticipated"

ins" to Gabby Streets champions

Guiding all of the 13 contests play

whom they broke even in % games.
Five Of Chicago's victories were
scored in succession at the close of
the season, after losing streaks of
five and four games against the
Reds virtually put them out of the
race.
The Cardinals are continuing
their success against Cincinnati.
Yesterday they scored their second
consecutive 1881 triumph over the
Reds. to 0, behind masterful
pitching by Burleigh Grimes, who
allowed only seven hits in compil-
ing the seasons first shut out.
Other National League games
were featured by heavy hitting, Chi
cago defeating Pittsburgh, 6 to S.:
Boston drubbing Brooklyn, 8 to g.:
and Philadelphia beating New York
10 to 7.
Rogers Hornsby's home run pro-
vided Chicago's winning run and
enabled Bob Smith. formerly with
the Braves, TO make a successful
debut as Cubs pitcher.
Seven fielding errors and inef-
fective mound work by four pitch
ers resulted in the Brooklyn Robins
dropping their second straight TO
Boston Outfielder Babe Herman
and Catcher AL Lopez were Brook
lyn's chief offenders and were ie-
moved after four innings of play.
Klein Hits Perfectly
Chuck Klein led the Phillies' at
tack on five Giants pitchers, turn
ing in n perfect day at bat with a
homer. triple and two singles. An
eight run offensive in the second

Earnshaw from the mound in the
fourth and continued the assault on
Mahaffey.
The Boston Red SoX used 10 men
against the New Yorl; Yankees, but
were defeated, to 7, with the
Yanks scoring the winning run on
