Detroit Pleas Aid
Youths Probation

LOS ANGELES, March 25. W.P)--
The pleas of Mayor Frank Murphy
and other influential Detroit resi-
dents today had resulted in the re-
lease of Joseph w. Warsaka, 81
year-old athletic star, on a two
years probation following his con-
viction on a noldup charge.
Warsaka, football star at Ham
track, Mich, high school, was or
dered by Judge Robert w. Kenney
to return to his parents. He was
arrested two months ago after
"holding up" Rafael Insunza with
o cigarette case fashioned like a
pistol. Insunza, who failed to see
the "joke," turned him over to po-
iice. Al--,A AaA sAG

Indians to Play
Ball in Week
At Central

Nine men to a side will repre-
sent the picturesque Cherokees
in their game of Indian ball at
Central High School Stadium a
week from tomorrow, March 8.
This features a dual athletic
attraction sponsored by the Dis
trict Inaugural Entertainment
committee.
Opening the doubleheader war
fare will be a lacrosse game in
volving all stars of Annapolis and
Baltimore.
No set number of men are re-
quired in Indian ball so long as
the teams are equalized in num-
bers. In this particular instance,
however, it is figured that
dwarfed numbers not only will
expedite but also will add to the
aggreSsiveneSS of the game.
Oddly enough the ball itself
brought into use in this pastime
Is no larger than that used in
golf. The object is to bat, or
carry it through goal posts COM
priSed of ordinary trees.
Free-for-alls galore are tolerated
in advancing the ball down the
field.

TONIGHT.

In a mix-up of "naSurals" popu
lar and sleek-haired Frank Judson
steps out tonight. He goes to a
finish with hard boiled Gino
Garibaldi. This is one of five
bouts headlining some of the
finest workers ever featured dur
ing Joe Turner's regime as box
ing promoter.
Judson, hero of a tWo-hour
draw with Ray steele and a big
league stand against Champion
Jimmy Londos, enters this match
a short-ender. Atop of his recent
upset of Able Coleman here,
Garibaldi figures to dispose OF
the former Harvard wrestling di-
rector.
Scarcely less interesting is the
routed 45-minute seml-final in
which Fred Grobmeier. long
legged and ambitious, ties up
with Bruno GoraSini.
Fred won the hook scissors
championship this past Thursday
night, upsetting Paul Jones. Able
Coleman meets Jim MCMILLAN; !;
Paul Jones wrangles with Joe

Lots, Lots Of Money

Did you ever stop to think
Just how much money a world
series brings to a town, and
how much Of it stays in circu-
lation in the towns where the
series is played?
Well. we can tell you that
the amounts are plenty.
The hotels and restaurants
and taxicabs and theaters and
almost any shop with its doors
open profit immeasurably dur
ing the average of three days
that a world series crowd in
tests a city.
And then there is another
consideration which can't be
figured in nickels and dimes.
but which reacts substantially
to any world series town, and
that is the publicity the crown
ing event Of the baseball
year brings to cities fortunate
enough to be the scenes of the
series.
This publicity, reduced to
terms Of popularity which any
world series center enjoys in the
days preceding and following
such a series, is immeaSurable.
Briefly, it is a form of advertis-
ing for the city which money
couldn't buy, but which comes
free to the fortunate metropolis
because for from a week to 10
days it is the center of world
wide interest.
The Washington times., 1933-02-23
Economic Hypodermic

So, between the Inauguration,
which is so few days away now,
and the possibility of a world
series here, Washington stands
to receive an economic hypo-
dermic that may well be envied
by any city in the country.
And, speaking Of the pub
licity to which certain cities
fall heir in view of the news
events centered therein, it
Seemd to us that Miami came
in for a bit of unSavory notori-
ETY. it hardly deserved when the
alleged assassin picked out the
Magic City as the spot where he
would make an attempt on the
life of our President-elect.
Miami, essentially sport city
because it caters to people who
are pleasure bound, hardly
rated the sensationalism which
followed the dastardly attack,
and resultant serious injury to
at least two innocent by-stand-
erS.
The public should be mind
full of the facts in this case,
we believe because the man
who committed the crime was
not a native of Miami nor
does he represent the usual
type of visitor, Miami itself is
so different than any impress
sion left by the shooting Of
two weeks ago.
A place where people are
friendly and with a climate
and locale calculated to pro-
long health and happiness,
rather than curtail it, Miami
should never be pictured in
the popular mind as a center
where assassinS foregather.
But such is the queer quirks
which publicity som e t m S
plays!

C. v, BACK HOME
|. AFTER DEFEAT

Members of the George Wash
ington University basketball team
are back in Washington today
after losing a thrilling game in
Madison Square Garden last
night to the City College OF New
York quint. The final score was
81 to 26, and the contest was
played before more than 10000
fans in the Garden.
While defeated, the ColonialS
made a deep impression on the
New York audience and gained
much prestige because Of their
play.
Tonight is another dark night
in local intercollegiate athletic
circlS, but tomorrow night George
town, Maryland, American and
Gallaudet all go into action.
The Hoyas tackle Pittsburgh,
in Tech gym; Maryland plays its
first round game in the Southern
Conference championship tourna-
ment at Raleigh, N. c., against
South Carolina; American enter
tainS the Virginia Medical Col
lege team from Richmond in
Americans gym; and the SilentS
play Baltimore University, at
Kendall Green.
Maryland scored a double win
last night, the Old Line baSketers
winning over their ancient rivals,
Johns Hopkins, 35 to 81, and the
Terp boxers winning over St.

SIR CAMP BELL
MAY TRY AGAIN

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, Feb.
23.-Sir Malcolm Campbell, Eng
lish speed demon, who broke his
own worlds one mile record here
yesterday, may make another at
tempt to equal his goal of 800
mile-an-hour within the next two
weeks.
The knighted daredevil flashed
twice over the hard-packed sands
over the one mile straighway
course for an average speed Of
272.108.
81 believe would have
achieved better than 800 miles
an hour with clearer visibility.
Officials were opposed to my
attempt yesterday because of
conditions, but I could not dis
appoint the large holiday
crowd.
II am sure that on my next
trial, the Blue Bird will exceed
800 miles an hour. 1 hope to
make another attempt before
returning to England.

If the st. Louis Cardinals had
the Phillies' infield, or If the
Phillies had the Cardinals pitch
ers, either could win the pen
nant hands down.
Unfortunately for both. the
swap can't be made, so 1t is un-
likely either will win. The Cards
have the best pitching staff in
the National League, a sweet
catcher and a good outfield. But
the infield seems shaker than
tramp with the heebie- e-jeebies.
That infield probably will give
the pitchers many headache.
Either Jim Collins or Pat Craw-
ford, two good hitters, will play
first base and neither is Hal
Chase around the bag.
HornsEy is booked for second,
which reminds me of what the
rookie said on hearing Eddie Col
Inns was the fastest thinker in the
game. That was in Eddie's last
year, when he couldn't get off a
dime.
"Yeh," said the skepticaI
rookie after watching Eddie fail
to reach an ordinary grOunder,
che may be smart but 1 notice
he can't Outthink those fast
hOppers."
So it will be with Hornsby. He
is smart, he's a wonderful hitter,
a marvel pivoting on a double
play, but he won't be able to out
smart those grounderS. He may
go well for two months or more
but what will happen when his
dogs begin to bark along about
August, especially if he has the
aged Sparky Adams or the erratic
Gordon Slade on one side and
Crawford or Collins on the other?
Charley Colbert would help him
out if he could play, but at this
writing that seems out of the
question. Charley is still on
crutches nursing his gun-shot knee.
Frisch at Third
That leaves Frankie Frisch on
third and frankie has been around
a long. long time.
These lads will get practically
everything hit directly at them,
but what about the balls they
should get and don't? It takes
only one or two of those to blow
a ball game.
Orsatti, Medwick and Watson
are fast and they can hit. They
will do well enough in the out
field.
Jimmy Wilson is still a good
catcher, but it is worthy Of note
that Bill Terry, manager Of the
Giants, passed him up for Gus
Mancuso when he could have had
either in the recent trade.
Hallahan and Walker are two
great left-handerS and both should
have big years. Dizzy Dean, far
from dizzy when chucking that
apple, is perhaps the best right
handler in the league, and Carrie
ton and Derringer are no push
overs for any team.
Dazzy Vance, recently obtained
from Brooklyn, won't be able to
pitch oftener than once a week
but the team doesn't have to de.
pend on him.

It's been taken for granted at
this early stage of the training
season that the veterans arm is
in excellent shape.
But there is still that anxiety
about the situation that holds
everybody connected in ar Off
cial capacity with the Griffmen
with a particular idea that too
much stock shouldn't be taken in
the condition of the hurler's arm
until proof is shown that "all is
well and that the goose hangs
high"
For Thomas must still demon
strate that he can throw as if
he had never hurt his salary wing
in the first place. AS far as
Tommy is concerned, it's been
done already as he says his arm
is in great shape, that he can
lift it and wing it better and
higher than ever before, and that
he doesn't, for instance, feel that
he'll experience any trouble throw
ing, once Manager Cronin gives
the word to let loose.
Winning Pitcher
If this is the case, the Grifmen
can believe right now that they
have winning pitcher in their
midst, as Thomas is just that
when in the right sort of fettle.
Last year when he was feeling
fine, the former White Sox star
pitched about as beautifully as
any hurler could be known to
pitch, defeating the st. Louis
Browns in three successive in
stances, a feat that was something
of a record for the American
League during 1882.
Trainer Mike Martin is one in
dividual who believes that Thomas
is all right even at this early
stage of the training season, also
ready to pitch his head off once
the start of the campaign rolls
around.
He's O. k, allows Mike. THAT
operation did just what 1t was
supposed to do-loosen up the
kink that was in his elbow, and
I'm more than confident that his
arm will not fail him either dur
ing this training peroid or during
the season"
Worked On Arm
Mike worked on Tommy's arm
for about three weeks after the
veteran returned from Chicago,
the scene of his operation. The
trainer gave the hurler vigorous
rubdownS three times week, put
his arm under the baking machine
in the clubhouse at Griffith Sta
dium, and otherwise saw to it that
the right sort of exercise was
taken by the veteran before pro
nouncing him "fit and ready"
Tommy is confident he'll be in
shape for Manager Joe Cronin
this year.
Yesterday during practice, both
Frisco Joe and Trainer Mike
Martin had to hold the veteran
down because Of his ambition to
sling a few faster than the others
taking the drill.
A few more instances like this
and the veteran won't have to

 The Tom Mix picture gives the hero an opportunity to prove that he is one of the worlds best horse men and that there is scarcely a situation that he can't fight his way through. He wins the hand of lovely Judith Barrie with the as sistance of Raymond Hatton and Eddie Gribbon. t e'S
