Stanley Cup Series to s tart Tonight
Defense of Rangers Seems
Slightly Stronger Than
That of Toronto

New York. April 5.-(P)-Two of
major league hockey's most powerful
arrays. the New York Rangers, ma
tional league champions, and the Tor
onto Maple Leafs, open their series
for the Stanley cup here tonight.
The cup, emblematic of world pro-
fessional hockey supremacy, will go
to the team first winning three games
in the five-game series. All contests
will be played to a decision with
sudden death overtime in the event
the rivals are tied at the end of the
regulation three periods.
After the opening game the Rang
ers will take their second home
game to Boston Thursday night since
Madison Square Garden will not be
available. The third game will be
played in Toronto Saturday night
and fourth and fifth, if necessary, at
Toronto Tuesday and Thursday of
next week.
Neither team could be called a pro-
nounced favorite. Torontos famed
kid Line" of Charley Conacher,
Harvey Jackson and Joe Primeau,
boasts a better scoring punch than
the equally famous Ranger line of Bill
and Bun Cook and Frank Boucher but
the Rangers defense seems slightly
stronger.

In a three horse race. between the
Cubs, Cardinals and Giants, such as
this pennant campaign Of 1882 prom
ises to be, the value of Grimes cannot
be estimated in the worth alone OF the
victories he himself will win.
AS l see it, when the Cubs got
Grimes, in exchange for $4,000 ball
player-Hack Wilson-and a young
pitcher, Bud Teachout, they acquired
the fighting edge that will determine
the winner of the National League
pennant.
Have Problem
The Cubs have problems, to be sure
in the infield and outfield Gas what
National League team hasn't? tina;
might lead most of the baseball
handicappers to play safe and select
the Cardinals to repeat. But when
the Cardinals let Grimes get away
they gave the Cubs exactly the incen-
tive and spirit the Chicago club lack
ed last year-not to mention the II
or Is wins old Burleigh is ready to
fling out of his resourceful arm this
season.
If pitching is 80 per cent of ball
club. the Cubs are in. In Grimes
Root Rush and Malone the Cubs have
what looks to be the best four in the
league. Added to these starters are
Lon Warneke. Bob Smith, jake May
and Dutch Henry.
In Herman at second base and the
sensational young Stanley Hack at
third. it may be said that Hornsby Is
taking a gamble But you will find
the other National League contenders
gambling, too McGraw Is gambling
at second. with Critz's arm, and in his
outfield, with new men. The Cardi-
mails are gambling on some young
pitchers.
Haven't Best Outfield
The Cubs haven't the best outfield
in the league perhaps. But they have
one of the best outfielders in the bust
ness in Cuyler, and for the other spots
there are Riggs Stephenson (hell hit

year in the major leagues? With
Grimm at first base, Hornsby, Harry
Taylor and Lester Bell ready for re-

group of infielders you could name,

SPORT SLANTS
BY ALAN GOULD

International sports develop some
dizzy situations. Take the matter of
tennis In years past Americans have
been criticized abroad for invading
foreign lands and carting away the
trophies.
After all, weren't Americans alto
gether too serious about their sports:
Didn't they play to win, practice too
intently, specialize like Tilden or Bob
by Jones on one sport instead of play
ing half a dozen, none of them too
we'll?
But the spice of international COM
petition has made such classics as the
Wimbledon championships. and with
the possibility of the American Davis
Cup team passing up the London
tournament this year, criticism has
taken new turn.
Bruce Harris, tennis correspondent
of the London Evening Standard,
brands the proposed plan of the U.
is. l.. T. A. to sidetrack Wimbledon
as an ''unfriendly act"
The scheme is, he says, stealing
march on French and British play
ers who will be toiling at Wimbledon
while the Americans are rounding
into championship form at French
resort or in the Roland Garros stad-
ium in Paris.
