cans at the Biloxi Stadium. Just
who Cronin will substitute now
is not known, but in all prob
ability Monte Weaver will be
given the nod. Eddie Linke and
Bud Thomas were supposed to
get the assignments in today'S
game with the Atlanta Crackers.
Speaking of arms, the condi-
ton of Alphonse Thomas is the
talk of the camp today. This
veteran has slowly but surely
engaged in his chores each day
and right now believes that his
salary wing is as strong, if not
stronger, than when he hurt it
last summer. Yesterday he opened
up for the first real time and
felt none the worse for his eff
forts after a torrid warm-up ses-
sion with Catcher Moe Berg.
Worked Hard On Tommy
If Tommy is right" this year
there will be none other than
Trainer Mike Martin who'll carry
around plenty of smiles. For this
grizZled old veteran of the game
has worked night and day on the
pitchers arm in the idea to get
it strong enough to win many
games for the GriffS in the cam
paign ahead. The veteran will
probably be kept out of actual
action from the old pitching box
for a while yet because the
weather has not become warm
enough to warrant a thorough
test.
Although Thomas will be kept
on the side lines, Manager
Cronin stated after yesterdays
drill that he would use his other
veterans in the games against
the Cleveland Indians at New
Orleans over the coming week
end. This means that Earl White
hill, Walter Stewart and Gen.
Alvin Crowder will get their first
assignments either Saturday or
Sunday. Monte Weaver may also
be among those present, if he is
not worked in Fridays contest
against the New Orleans Pelicans.
The showings of this entire group
will be watched with interest.

VAN SURPRISES
BOXING FANS

Quite number of boxing fol-
lowers in this section have al
tered their opinions of Young
Van, that handsome middle
weight from the southwest area
of the city.
Finishing with a strong squirt,
Young Van gained a draw at
the conclusion of his eight-round
scrap with Henry "Popeye" 1rv-
ing, Northeast product, over in
Portner'S Arena, Alexandria, Va,
last night. Nearly 1000 fans wit
messed the stirring encounter and
most Of those present were satis-
fled with the decision.
Irving was master of the situa-
ton during the first four rounds
and belted Young Van with a
dynamic right hand which often
found it's mark. Irving'S sup
porters were shouting for
knockout in the fourth round
and it appeared unlikely than
Van would last.
Vans seconds must have slipped
him some Of that 80 beer, which
will soon be foaming over the
stems again, for Van stepped
briskly from his corner at the
start of the fifth. He blasted
Irving with both mittens and
kept up his deadly attack in the
sixth. He again continued his
devastating offensive, in the
seventh and finally floored Irving
for a brief count. The final ses-
sion found both boys, wearied by
the furious pace, trying desper-
ately to put over a kayo, but both
were erect at the final gong.
Roy Manley, carrying nine
pounds advantage, was declared
the winner over "Stumpy" ia
cobs in the semi-windup of six
rounds. Jacobs was the aggres-
sor and many thought him de-
serving of at least a draw. Billy
Landers flattened Tommy Horn,
Baltimore bantam, in the fourth
round. Jackie Levinson, 139
pounds, outpointed Bob Lowry,
139 pounds, in a 4-rounder, the
loss being Lowry'S first at Port
ner's. Tex Mills and Billy Esch-
niger Travelled four rounds to a
draw in the opening bout.
The Washington times., 1933-03-15
Vans Great Condition

Young Van, who has come
along very rapidly in his two
brief years of fisticuffing,
showed marvellous reserve pow
ers by weathering the first four
rounds during which Henry
Irving vas at his best. Only
Vans youthful vitality could
possibly have stood him in such
stead.
Then, in the final four
rounds, when Van seemed to be
getting his second wind and
cleverly boxed Irving's ears at
will, the latter proved the iron
man in himself by sticking it
out through some rather sub
Stantial shellacking from his
younger foe.
But the amazing thing about
their bout was the cadence each
set for himself from the out
set and retained right up to the
very end.
So, when and if Messrs. Van
and Irving are thoroughly
rested from their exhauStions
Of last night, Matchmaker
Frankie Mann can do no better
than to again bring them to-
gether-and may the best man
win!
The Washington times., 1933-03-15
A Very Heady Bout

For eight swift rounds they
stabbed at each others heads,
neither aiming as much for the
mid-Section as we thought they
should, if even for a change
Of pace.
In the second round only
some miracle kept Young Van
erect, such a severe pasting
around the jaws did Irving ad-
minister.
Conversely, in the seventh,
some unseen power kept Irving
on his feet, such a rally did
Van put on in an attempt to
finish his man.
And before, in between and
after those rounds, both of
which had every man, woman
and child in the house on their
feet, Messrs. Van and Irving
stabbed and speared at each
other with such frenzy that
each moment Of the fight
might well have been the last.
Searching our memory care
fully, we never recall two big
boys establishing and main
tanning greater pace. Referee
Short himself, showed the ef-
fects of the terrific going by
the time the final bell sounded.

McAfee first 1elt the soreness
in his arm during yesterdays
practice session. He complained
while pitching to the batters in
the stick drill and Manager
Cronin quickly excused him from
work for fear of hurting the lad
further. No doubt the big pitcher
strained his arm a little bit IN
Sundays game against Atlanta.
He was hit quite hard in the
first inning and this forced him
to bear down" in his last two
innings in order to make that
good showing expected Of him.
Burke's soreness is really moth
ing but a small kink that will
iron itself out with a little more
throwing. However, Cronin has
instructed Bobby not to take too
many chances and has gone 50
far as to put him under the COM
plete guidance of Trainer Mike
Martin, whose program calls for
just a short warm-up at the
start of drills for the day and
a run around the park soon
after.

WEST PALM BEACH. Fla,
March 15.-Bill Killefer, the to-
mato-faced person who directs the
fortunes of the st. Louis Browns,
is an unusual person-he does not
forecast a pennant for his 1888
club. In a few choice words he
says:
1--WE expect to surprise the
critics who believe we'll slide
past the Boston Red SOx and
hit the cellar this season. Yes,
I'm giving us chance for the
first division"
The Browns Of 1882 finished
sixth with a percentage Of 400.
They have added only seven
players to the cast for this season.
However, the new talent is ex-
pected to create more harmony,
hustle, and getup than was on dis
play 4dSG SuI14L4AC4s
Goose Rebelled
For instance, Goose GoSlin had
a chip on his shoulder while play
ing with second-division team in
1892. He will be replaced by Carl
Reynolds, the boy who took the
kayo count in the fistic encounter
with Bill Dickey, of the Yankees,
last summer. Reynolds, a right
handed hitter. will have the clean
up position in the batting order.
Sammy West, also obtained
from the Griffmen, is regarded as
a defensive genius out in center
field. He supplants Fred Schultz,
who accompanied Goslin in the
transfer to the Griffmen. Schultz
was reliable but slow and phleg-
matte. West has color, snap, pep,
and q solid smack at the plate
when runners are in scoring posi-
tions.
The other outfielder is Bruce
Campbell, a gawky, awkward kid,
who joined the team last April in
a trade for Ralph Kress.
Young Infield Combine
The infield is filled with youth
and vigor, with Jack Burns at
first, oscar Melillo at second, Art
Schaerin at third, and Jimmy
Levey at shortstop. This is prob
ably the youngest infield combina-
ton in the majors.
Pitching isn't encouraging, as it
shows practically the same staff
as a year ago, with George Blae-
holder, Sammy Gray, Irving Had
ley, Wallace Hebert, Bob Cooney,
Dick Coffman, Lloyd Brown from
Washington, ROLAND Stiles from
Wichita Falls, and Jack Knott
from Milwaukee.
Most Promising
Knott is the most promising
prospect of the newcomers. He
weighs 205 pounds, stands six feet
two inches, and they say he throws
a fast ball that compares favor
ably with walt er Johnson's
smoker. If Jacks half that fast,
he is assured of permanent job
with the Browns.
Killefer hopes that Hebert and
Coffman will regain their former
effectiveness this season. Both
had good seasons in 1881, but
begged down last year.

BIC GAIN FORESEEN
IN FARM INCOMES
U. S. Chamber Chief Predicts
Years Total Will Reach
7 to 8 Billions.
BY CHAS. p. SHAEFFER.


Farm income of the United States for
the calendar year 1888 is expected to
make powerful contribution to the
purchasing power of the Nation.
This income, normally about S11 000,-
100000 annually, is expected by Henry
l. Hartman, president of the Chamber
of Commerce Of the United States, to
total between s7,000,0000O0 and $8,-
600 100000 this year, as compared with
only $4,000, ,000,000 last year.
The increase is expected to 90 long
way toward correcting the curtailed
purchasing power of agriculture during
the last few years which is said to have
resulted directly in the unemployment
OF many millions of men and women
working in factories and industries in
the cities.
In discussing the enhancement of
farm income. Mr.. Hartman pointed out
tnat wheat prices have increased from
40 cents to go; cotton from 5 cents to
10, and corn from 10 cents to so. These
increases were held indicative of the re-
suits that should accrue to agriculture
generally through the operation of the
agricultural adjustment act and the
balancing of supply to demand.
In the meantime, the great disparity
between the farm products index and
the general au-commodity index is be-
ing narrowed. The farm products in
dex for July was COL, as compared with
53.2 during the previous month, repre-
senting an increase of 13 per cent dur
ing the month. and of 38 per cent over
July of last year.
The average commodity price index
for July was $50, as compared with
$50 for June, which represented an in
crease of 6 per cent during the month,
and an increase of 6.75 per cent over
the same month of last year.
Thus, the spread between the farm
products index and the general COM
modify price level has been reduced to
8.8 points as of the close Of July. The
previous month the spread was 1l8
points.
