TIME st. Louis Cardinals,
riding the crest of a hit
ting wave that has sup
n planted their supposedly
invincible pitching, now are
iustifying the predictions made
for them before the National
League season started.
After losing seven of their first nine
games, the Cards began hitting and
an 8-to-7 triumph over the Phillies
yesterday made it five in a row and
gave them 500 average for the first
time since the second day Of the cam
paign.
In the course of this streak they
have collected go hits and "a runs to
make victories possible, although only
one pitcher has gone the route. Yes
terday's contribution was IL blows of
Phil Collins, of which Joe Medwick
collected two singles and his fourth
home run.
Despite their come back, the Cardi-
mails still are out of the first division.
The Boston Braves. the only team
they had chance to oust from the
top four yesterday, came through with
a smashing 60 victory over Chicago's
Cubs and went into a tie with the de-
feated Pittsburgh club a half game
ahead Of the Cards.
Ed Dutch) Brandt added to the
southpaw plague that has bothered
the Cubs recently by holding the
Chicago sluggers to two puny singles
to shut them out for the first time.
The Braves. meanwhile, smacked Pat
Malone for nine blows, including
homers by Marty McManus and Wally
Berger. Chicagos troubles started
even before the game when Billy
Jurges. regular shortstop. was carted
of to the hospital with a mild attack
of appendicitis.
The New York Giants improved
their position at the top of the stand
ing by defeating the Pirates, 5-3, as
Travis Jackson accounted for four
runs with a triple with loaded sacks
and a homer. Brooklyn and Cincin-
natl battled through seven scoreless
innings before the Dodgers got to Ray
Kolp for three runs, enough to win,
3-2. in the eighth.
Rain wiped out all four American
League games.

Cub Highlander explained later
as he took mans sized bite from
his plug of tobacco, but the
booing those fans gave Comorosky
at the opening game when he got
a hit off me was the funniest of
all. What do they expect? A
base ball player, who is getting
paid for doing his best, to stand
up there and take three strikes
just because some guy has a
chance for a no-hit game? Nuts!
That's how feel about it. don't
want a no-hit game that bad. No

anything. Why should they give

Whitehill-Pearso Tilt Today.

THAT series between Nationals and
Indians, opening the invasion
of Griffith Stadium by the West
ern clubs this year, delayed yesterday
by moisture and misgivings of more,
was to have started this afternoon,
with Manager Joe Cronin sending to
the hill the left-handed Earl White
hill and our old friend Walter John
son picking for his pitcher Monte
Pearson.
Cronin and johnson had a long
session with Clark Griffith, main
owner and president of the Wash
ington ball club, yesterday after hos
tilities were formally cancelled but
one only of friendly nature
The managers were tipping one an
other off to the weaknesses of the
batters of the various clubs of the
two sectors of the circuit But nat
urally not of their own clubs. The
way the Nationals have hit lately the
Indians could chuck anything at
them and something would be likely
to happen. And that goes for the
Tribes hitters, too.
Ball players and managers in the
majors are like that. The first time
around each season they discuss what
this one can hit and what that one
hasn't a chance of smacking. It's
purely business with them. You stop
one club and I'll stop the other.
That's cricket
But do your own figuring when
you're playing me, either will tell 'em.

I'll make it strictly painless"
When he resumed the conversa-
ton, the doctors mind had wandered
to his favorite subject, the subject OF
lightweights.
This Ross is good kid, fast,
clever, and a fair puncher, he said.
But he's not in McLarnin's class.
McLarnin is a great puncher, and
he's harder to hit than you'd think.
That's the way with good punchers.
They stand wide open, like they was
saying Come on and hit me- You
come in, and the next thing you
know it's Tuesday.
"a good puncher seldom gets
marked up. Look at McLarnln's
face. Look at mine. The reason is
that the other fellow stays away
from a puncher, doesn't flick or jab
him. It's too dangerous"
The doctor hasn't much respect
for the lightweights of today. Ross
is fair, and Sammy Mandell was fair,
and Al Singer was a pretty good boy,
but they don't touch the lghtweights
who fought in Leach Cross time.
Evening star., 1934-05-04

That short putt meant thousands of
dollars to the young st. Louis pro, and
the crowd sensed the melodrama in
volved.
But, after all, there will be no
louder heartbeats in sport than will
be known at Churchill Downs by those
who happen to be on the winner as
he nips the field. The thrill in pick
ing the right one, the financial re-
ward and the general hullabaloo all
combine to bring about that Shaky
feeling around the knees. with touch
of dizziness, which leaves Kentucky'S
green landscape spinning in circle.
Yes. Cavalcade is about as good a
guess as any you can think Of now.
