Rough-and-ready Gino Carl
baldi won't b. throttled by any
rules when he scuffles with
wrestling's man Of the hour,
Ernie Dusek, at the Washington
Auditorium tonight. This pair
of bruiserS are to wrap up in
the main contest.
Sometime back, Promoter Joe
Turner suspended the villainouS
Italian for conduct unbecoming
a wrestler. He Slugged Referee
Benny Bortnick. Upon Carl
baldi's promise to behave, Turner
lifted the suspension and matched
him with DuSek.
Disliked "SOftie" Idea
Now, none of the House Of
Dusek wants to be termed a
"softie" by the trade and, when
Ernie learned that Garibaldi was
willing to play the part Of a
meek lamb, he grew furious.
Ernie didn't want the idea to get
around that he was afraid 70
meet an opponent who didn't
wrestle according to Hoyle.
Ernie protested to Promoter
Turner, the result being that all
restrictions have been lifted.
Gino and Ernie can go the limit,
providing they confine their war
fare to themselves and not allow
their scrapping to become so gen
eral as to involve Referee Bort
nick or a few of the spectators.
Real Bout Promised
There S one bout down in the
preliminary barrel, that between
Everett Marshall and George Ia
harias, which should rival the
big feature. The pair are billed
to travel 80 minutes and present
indications point to a drawn bat
tie, there being little difference
between them.

A Scandalous Waste

It doesn't take an efficiency
expert to deduce from such a
statement that there is a total
Of $50 batting points gone to
waste in a single afternoon,
probably as the result Of physi-
cal and mental inertness super
induced by the fact that he's
only got two jobs to occupy
his attention, whereas, accord
ing to the standard he set yes
terday, he could just as handily
assume half dozen others with
out the slightest deterioration
to his personal showing or that
Of his team.
From all this it appears that
the way to cinch the pennant
for Washington is to get Joe
few more jobs with their addi-
tional responsibility. In such
an event it may happen that
he would hit perfectly as well
as field perfectly. which ideal

or tenth assistant something
or-other so the boy would have
something to do in his spare
moments and thereby possibly
become a better balanced ball
player and team leader. Then
he wouldn't go through an en-
tire afternoon batting only .750
when he might have batted
1000.

reason for the Reserves victory.

The banner crowd had only a
few moments before been asked to
remain in their seats until Presi-
dent Roosevelt had left the ball

few words of encouragement.
A handshake, that million-dol-

Cronin ended festivities for the

self for one of those nine-inning
tests, which will come to him
plenty Of times later on during
this important campaign.
Thomas was sent to the bull
pen by Cronin during the latter
part Of yesterdays opening game
of the season with the Philadel'
phia AS and in the eighth took
Gen, Alvin Crowder's place on
the mound when that great
pitcher looked to Cronin as If he
was firing.
Vet Looked Good
The veteran went easily about
his work and bore out Manager
Cronin's contention that he was
to be depended upon in this
capacity as we'll as in starting
one.
The youthful pilot, incidentally,
has not decided yet just how he
will rotate his pitchers for these
first few games of the early sea.
son. Earl Whitehill was due to
get the nomination in today'S
second contest of the series with
the AS, but Cronin was not able,
at a late hour this morning, to
tell who his finger would be in
tomorrow's third and final tilt
with the same AS.
In all probability Prof. Monte
Weaver will follow Whitehills eff.
fort this afternoon as the former
Baltimore Oriole has been known
to be pretty successful against
Connie Mack's men in the past.
Monte Can Beat 'Em
Last year Weaver defeated the
AS something like five times and
in each instance had a compare
lively easy time in Subduing them.
In a season supposed to be as
important as this one, especially
where the Griffs are concerned,
it is hard to figure just what will
happen, but the dope points to
the fact that if Monte was so
successful against Connie Mack
and his men last year he should
be just as fortunate, if not more
so, if given the opportunity to
show how he'll fare. Thus, it's
logical to figure that Cronin will
work the former professor before
the AS leave town.
Getting back to Thomas, it
shouldn't take this hurler long to
get in that supposed shape for q
nine inning assignment. He's
looked better every time he's oc.
cupied the mound this spring,
and yesterday looked even better
than that, because it was the AS
he was facing and not a minor
league club in an exhibition con-
test. But relief roles he'll get
for a while until both he and
Cronin feel that the hour is ripe
for that longer nomination.
