FORT MYERS, Fla, March 81.
Back on the home training
grounds the Athletics tackle Gin
cinnati this afternoon. The AS
defeated Tampa, 6-5, yesterday,
taking 13 innings for the job.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 81.
With five straight wins tucked
away the Pittsburgh Pirates to-

, Plenty of Fishing

Both said their sudden afflu-
ence would not change their
mode of living very much. They
will buy a little home, furnish
1t and invest the remainder SO
as to receive a life income from
it.
'We've always loved to fish,
but haven't had, much leisure
in which to indulge our fancy.
Wen do all the fishing we want
to, nOw," was their comment.
Another sweep ticket pur-
chaser who was fortunate to
the extent of winning $14,741
proved to be a world war vet
eran and the father of two chill
dren.
"They can have a good educa-
tiOn nOw," he said, rubbing
their curly locks as he talked
to a reporter.
A negreSS purchased a ticket
about a month ago which, after
the Grand National was run,
proved to be worth $12,053 to
her. She will use the money to
bring her mother from Florida.
Her husband is a musician and
they have one child.
And that's the way it goes.
Millions of tickets are sold, but
only a handful of them win
anything, but it is the God of
Luck which keeps people buy
ing these chances, year after
year, in the hope that sooner
or later lightning will strike
them.

Phar Lap $50 OOOORace Winner May Tour u. S
AUSTRALIAN
HORSE SETS
- TRACK MARK

Aqua CALIENTE. Mexico,
March 21.-America, here I come!
Phar Lap talking, and If you
don't believe it, consider his thrill
ing victory in the $4,000 handi-
cap.
He may tour America to show
racing fans his speed.
1t was just a breeze for this
super-horse from Australia. He
won in a canter, two lengths
ahead of Reveille Boy, and not
a bead of perspiration on his
brow or under his saddle. he
paid 5-to-2 to win.
Posts New Record
Just a romp in the record time
of 2:O2 As, a new track record
for the mile and a quarter, a full
second lower than the record SET
last year by Mike Hall.
Scimitar was third and Joe
Flores was fourth. Fifteen thou
sand fans watched the classic OF
the turf year here.
Phar Lap made your eyes pop
as he broke sixth from the barrier
and forged ahead like a giant
locomotive under full steam. BY
the time the horses were in front
of the grandstand, Phar Lap was
ahead, hurrying home for the
oats.
Passes PaceSetterS
Could Phar Lap travel? He
passed Cabezo, Joe Flores, Ba-
hamas, DR.. Freeland and Good
and Hot as if they were grand
stand spectators. BY the time
the field was halfway round,
Phar Lap was so far out in front
they began posting up the prices.
The gap separating him from the
rest of the horses was a good two
lengths.
Phar Lap was a generous
horse. He didn't want to dis
grace his competitors, so he
slowed up for a space and let
Reveille Boy come within a head
of him. Just when the big crowd
thrilled to think it might be a
race after all, Phar Laps jockey,
Billy Elliott, let him loose and he
responded in a hurry, shooting
out like a rocket and romping
home.
Crowned with a garland Of
roses after the race Phar Lap
wasn't even drawing a deep
breath.
May Take Match Race
Owner D. j. Davis said he was
not sure what he would do IN
the nature of a campaign, but
Phar Lap seems a cinch to make
circuit of America. Chicago
is sure to see him. Davis said
he had under consideration a
proposition from Tanforan track
at San Francisco for a match
race.
Marine placed fifth, and behind
him were Good and Hot, Seth's
Hope, Spanish Play, DR.. Free
land, Bahamas and Cabezo in the
order named.
Phar Lap probably will remain
here another week to run for
a $4,000 stake in the Callente
consolation cup handicap next
Sunday, which ends the present
winter meeting.
The Washington times., 1932-03-21

It is the weak hitting of Carl
Reynolds, supposed slugger of the
team. The former Chicago White
Sox star has connected but once
in three games, his lone bingle
in IL times at bat being an
easy sizzler through the pitchers
box.
Maybe Carl has not reached
his top stride. Then again,
maybe he's always been weak
at bat in the spring. Whatever
it is, the big fellow surely has
not looked like the punch" as
advertised.
Officials Not Worried
Officials of the club are not
worrying about the matter, how
ever, as they all agree that he'll
hit" in a little while. No doubt
he will as soon as he faces more
pitching in the many exhibition
games to come. But it surely
would be more encouraging II ne
socked right now.
Reynolds went to bat five times
while playing right field for the
"Second-Stringers' against the
Biloxi Bakers, State champions,
yesterday. He was hit by a
pitched ball on his first trip.
The next four he popped to the
third and second basemen and
twice flied to center field.
The Griffmen won the game.
13-to-5. Dave Harris performed
at third base, and although he
did not put up an excellent game,
he handled six chances with only
one error. Dave was the star at
bat, however. He collected a
double and two home runs in
three times at the plate, his pair
of homers being the longest SOCKS
Dave has hit in many a moon.
Bobby Burke and Bud" Thomas
divided on the mound and the
latter was credited with the
triumph as the Biloxi youngsters
were ahead, 4-to-2, when Burke
retired after the end OF the
fourth inning.
Harris Homer Decides
The locals gave the Griffs quite
a battle for awhile, but after Har-
ris' first homer in the fifth which
sent across Kerr, tying the score,
the game was all in the Griffs'
favor as Biloxi was never able to
fathom Thomas shoots. A big
six-run scoring bee in the seventh
actually decided things, Harris
second homer featuring.

CONCORD WINS
ROUGH GAME

Concord kickers won the Cap
ital City Soccer League champion
ship by scoring over Marlboro,
2-1, in a wild and woody play
off of a tie yesterday.
A heated argument between
Mike Wyvill, Marlboro, and
Beier, Concord, over alleged
rough tactics brought half of
the spectators on the field.
Police stopped the game and
cleared the field, and after a
half-hour conference permitted
the game to continue.
Marlboro took the lead as
Bailey drove the ball into the net
shortly after the game opened.
Benedict made it all even when
he Tailed with a brilliant boot
from the sidelines. Shortly after
this the argument resulted.
Following the resumption of the
game, Carl Beyerlin smashed the
ball into the Marlboro's goal
from a spirited scrimmage at It's
mouth.

SARAZEN LEADS
IN WINNINGS

CORAL GABLES, Fla, March
21.-Gene Sarazen, New York pro,
jumped into the lead for money
winnings in the winter golf tour
naments by taking first prize
of $4,000 in the $4,000 Coral
Gables tournament. Sarazen'S
earnings now total $6,375, while
Fred Morrison, who formerly
held the lead, is second with an
amount slightly over 5000.
Sarazen finished the 72-hole
tournament with a total OF 287.
The veteran Walter Hagen and
the youngster, Paul Runyan, tied
for second and split a purse OF
$2,25O, second and third money.
Runyan has a chance to tie
Sarazen but was unable to ne
gotiate a difficult 12-foot putt
on the final green. Hagen
loomed the winner until the
seventy-first, where he took a
five, one over par, owing to a
bad lie and repeated with an
other five on the next hole. Tne

|HEYDLER OUT FOR | LATE RBIC LEAGUE | BASEBALL START
Weather Hurts Game and Attendance Prior to May l, National Loop President Believes

Cincinnati, o, April 13-(UP)- John A. Heydler, president of the National league to-day announced that he believed the time has ar rived for g. later opening day in baseball.
 'Tn the last few years the wea- ther has changed so that in the middle of April it is a 10 to 1 gamble that it wifi be impossible to open the season on schedule time under anything like favorable conditions in any of the northern cities of the major leagues while the weather also is biz gamble in the southern cities of the two cir cults at this time of the year." he said.
 Not So Good
 Pittsburgh has encountered snow each of the last few years as late as April 20 and it is usually May 1 before the weather generally is suited to baseball in major league territory.
 we would encounter the most trouble in arranging a later open ing in Philadelphia which is the only city with two teams and with out Sunday baseball.
 'tAs 1t is the two Philadelphia clubs must crowd 154 games into 143 playing dates this year. We are closing the season on Septem- Der 25 this year but I believe 1t will be advisable to select later opening date and also Q later clos ing date in future years. By lat CT opening the clubs could shorten their training season, now too long, by about two weeks"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-04-13

The long -heralded grand open. ing was one of the bluest and drab- best inaugurals in the history of modern baseball. Only 119,5OO spectators attended the six games played, whereas 250,000 swarmed to the eight openers in 1881. Rain and cold caused the slump.
 Those fans who braved the ele- ments were treateed to a fair as- sortment of thrills.
 On the Nose.
 Heavy scoring featured most games. Twenty-nine runs were made in the two American league contests, with A hits, and five er- TOTS. In the four National league games 50 runs were gar- nered, 83 hits and II. errors. The New York Giants furnished five of the errors.
 High-lights of the opening day were Babe Ruth's two homers at Philadelphia and the Yankees dem- onstration of hitting power; Cin- cinnati's emergency hitting strength as demonstrated against the Cubs; the Cardinals championship brand of baseball; the uncertain showing of the New York Giants, and the question mark at Brooklyn as a result of the flop of the re-organ- ized Dodgers before the Braves. The rejuvenated Chicago White Sox also showed well.
 Babe Ruth, starting his 18th major league season, warmed the hearts of his legions of admirers by playing more magnificently than ever before in an opening game. He drove out two homers and accounted for five runs as his Yankee team mates swamped the American league champion Athletics at Philadelphia, 12 to 6. In five times at bat, he hom- cred twice, singled once, ground ed out and went out on strikes.
 Nice Work, Sammy!
 His team mate, Sammy Byrd. who has been budding for three seasons, blossomed out with two circuit clouts, and Lew Gehrig got one. Foxx and Simmons of the ling seven home runs for the game, just one less than the. American league record.
 In the only other American di- vision game played, the White Sox walloped the St Louis Browns, g to 2, at Chicago. Sam Jones held the Browns to eight scattered hits, while Carey Selph, perhaps the prize draft of the year, drove out three doubles off Stewart and Baleholder.
 The Cardinals looked like cham pions as they administered the worst beating of the day to the Pittsburg Pirates, 10 to 2. Pepper Martin, hero of last years world series, showed flashing form by
