Baseball Is Near Little Change In Club

Six Weeks From TODAY Stone For GOsLin

ing season comes around nine
out of ten of these colts like
Mark Filley, Mike Radono-
vich, Steve Molnar, Fred Sing
ton, Gus Dugas, Johnny Phipps
and possibly Pitcher Harold
McKain will be back to the
sources from which they came.
The Holdout Scare
Kids of their inexperience are
considered extremely fortunate
to stick in big company their
first year up, and if any Of
the baby crop at Biloxi keeps
his uniform, the popular guess
is that it will be Fred Sington,
the International Lacquer who
once was a famous football star
of the University of Alabama.
There has been some talk Of
holdouts from the Griffith
camp, but you will find that
when the showdown comes
every man will be in uniform.
During the last few days the
boys have been capitulating at
a rapid rate. There is nothing
else for them to do unless they
wish to idle all summer.
In such matters the ball club
holds the whip hand. Griff
knows baseball player values as
well as the next, and in time
he will WOO every recalcitrant
around to his way of thinking.
Griff argues that no ball
clubs are making anything like
the money they were a few
years ago, and that expenses
all the way around have to be
cut.
Burke a Holdout?
No few fans must be getting
some amusement over the
fact that among the so-called
holdouts from the Washington
club is that long, lean hurler,
Bobby Burke. Who, they are
asking, is Burke, that he should
be a holdout?
Credited with but four vic
tories against three defeats last
season, Burke certainly did not
set the team afire, albeit he
did carry his burden of the re-
lief pitching.
OF course, Bobby has that
no-hit, no-run game he tw!rled
against the Boston Red Sox
some years back to point to,
but that game is like the oc-
casionally low score a golfer
shoots. He spends the rest
of his life trying to repeat it.
If Burke is bargaining on
that sensational feat against
the Red Hose, he might just
as well capitulate into the fold
Immediately and stop his non
sense. Griff was a pitcher
himself and he knows how
to counter any argument Burke
can present. Bobby had better
surrender.
The Washington times., 1934-03-05

It is just a little bit difficult
TO believe, but baseball will
be opening officially around
here just six weeks from today
but it does and the fact should
cheer many a fan who has been
anxiouSly wondering what SEM
blance the 1884 Griffmen will
take.
Since that sour Saturday
afternoon last october when
the world series was ignomini-
0uSly dropped to the New York
Giants, the fans here have been
doing a lot of thinking. They
have been wondering if Cronin
would start the new season
with the same lineup, sans Cos
lin, Of course, and what, if
any, young pitchers would
come along to bolster a staff
that was pretty we'll tired out
by the time the American
League pennant was cinched
last fall.
AAUU4G 44uASx1uK
It is doubtful if there will
be any great change in the
1884 Griffmen over the 1888
edition outside of the presence
Of Stone in the outfield. Ger
tainly the old twirling corps of
Crowder, Whitehill, Stewart,
Weaver, Russell and Thomas
will be sufficient to open the
campaign, allowing that Burke
will finally develop and that
Ed Chapman, Ray Prim, Alex
McColl and Ed Linke will show
enough promise to be retained
Tor utility twirling.
Two of the younger bench
warmers. Cecil Travis and Cliff
Bolton, will receive some in
tensive coaching during the
next month. It is hoped to
prolong the playing career of
Ossie Bluege at third by having
Travis in readiness to share
that spot with the veteran, just
as it is desired to give Luke
SeWeu some help behind the
bat by breaking in the 26-year-
old Bolton to be of more catch
ing service than he has been
heretofore.
Bolstering Team
However, those prospective
developments will not material
" change the front of the
washington club. Rather they
will bolster it, neither Bluege
nor Sewen being anything like
ready for the discard yet
awhile, according to a conver.
Sation with Clark Griffith just
before he went South several
weeks ago.
Sure, the Biloxi camp is
loaded with young fellows. 1t
always is, but that is no rea-

DUSEk To TEST
. PAUL BOESCH

A bid for a rapid fire win
over Paul Bosch, Washington's
reigning wrestling build-up, will
be advanced by Rudy Dusek at
the auditorium Thursday night.
Hot on the trail of the laurelS
that were his locally back in
1881, Rude Rudy could boost
his stock sky high by virtue
of whirlwind upset of the
budding youngSter.
Considerable interest will be
attached to Boesch's first main
event bid locally in fast COM
pany. Recent conqueror of Joe
Savoldi and several other major
foemen, Dusek declares he will
carry the battle to his youthful
opponent from the starting sig
nal. A past master at roughing
it up, the blond warrior will
loose his toughest articles OF

VENZKE RUNS
AGAIN WITH
BONTHRON
BY PAT ROBINSON

by PAI hOb1NSON
NEW YORK, March 5.-The
boys-some SAB of them to be
exact-will be right in there
dying for dear old Rutgers and %
other assorted colleges when the
&c. "A. holds it's annual track
and field championships for the
first time in Madison Square Gar
den tonight. In passing. it may
be suggested that if Rutgers gets
more than three points tonight,
the boys from the banks of the
old Raritan will not have died in
vain.
However, if Rutgers fails to
burn up the new Garden track
which is actually two tracks in
one-the other collegians will
show enough to establish whole
flock of new records if for no
other reason than that these
games are being staged for the
first time under the metric sys-
TEN,
There may even be new world
record when Bill Bonthron, Of
Princeton, and Gene Venzke, Of
Penn, hook up again over the
1,50O-meter route. Gene is not
yet convinced that Bill is his mas
ter but hear Loughran feels the
same way about Carnera.
Sure tn Fall
Two marks sure to fall are the
high Jump at 6 feet, AZ and the
pole vault at 13 feet, 9A. George
Spitz, of N. Y. u, can knock off
the first two without taking off
his shirt and Keith Brown, holder
of the world indoor mark at IA
feet, 4 inches, will hardly work
up sweat before passing the old
mark.
This new track is q feet wide
over all, 1873 meters around the
inner rim and 100 meters around
the outside 12-foot rim. The
longer races will have staggered
start, the boys being Shunted like
freight car onto the outside
track after running a lap and a
half inside. It is so involved the
iron hats Of the I.C.4A. have
supplied each competitor with a
printed diagram. For all I know
to the contrary. they may even
have stop and go signals and tail
lights.
The Bonthron- -VenZke race may
prove to be another thriller but
the excitement Of the evening
will be centered in the 1900 and
1900 meter relays, especially the
former which always climaXeS the
meet.
Unbeaten Manhattan
The 1600-meter event will bring
together Manhattan u n b eaten
this year-Holy Cross, N. Y. u,
Fordham, Yale, Pitt, Boston Col
lege and Columbia with the first
four so closely matched any one
may win and it will by no means
be an upset.
Yale won the team title last
year with 80 points and has an
almost sure dozen to start with
this time in her three great pole
vaulters-Brown, Thompson and
Pearce. However, with so many
athletes shooting at the moon, it
would not be surprising if N. Y. U.
or Manhattan, or even Cornell,
Harvard or Princeton dropped
them from the peak.

CECIL TRAVIS
HAS PART
IN PLANS
BY GARRETT WATERS
(Times Staff COrrespOndenD

BILOXI, Miss, March 5.-Man.
ager Joe Cronin had two impor..
tant plans in mind today, which
he hopes to work out before the
training grind becomes an event
of the past.
The first is to inaugurate two
shifts of practice sessions a little
later on, because of the benefit
he believes his men will get from
the entire setup.
Therefore, the regulars and
rockies will have practice sessions
of their own, when the entire
squad gets here, the regulars in
the morning and the rockies in
the afternoon. In this way, the
young pilot feels he'll be able to
give more attention to the re-
spective groups both from a
standpoint of deciding on his reg:
ular lineup for the season ahead,
and helping the rockies on hand
in grabbing big league jobs.
Travis Gets Attention
The new idea will actually COM
mence March IS, when both regu-
lars and rockies will be present in
large numbers. In the meanwhile
the usual morning sessions will
hold sway, with pitchers, catchers
and individuals now in camp get
ting full attention.
The second plan involves Cecil
Travis, and Travis only. Cronin
would like to make a big league
performer out of the Chattanooga
kid this year and has it in mud
to take him in hand personally to
teach him the better ways to pay
the infield. Thus, Cronin and
Travis will get together at third
base each day for special drills
which will find Travis asking ques-
tions and Cronin answering to the
best of his ability.
Teammates Greeted
When the little band of Griff-
men arrived at camp last night
they greeted the following team
mates whom they were seeing for
the first time since last year: Ed
Chapman, rookie pitcher; Eddie
Linke, right-handed pitcher, back
for a trial after years seasoning
with Chattanooga; Cecil Travis
third sacker; Leonard Phillips,
hurler, from Albany; General Al
win Crowder, veteran, and Monte
Weaver. Also among those pres
ent were Elmer Klunpp, Chatta-
nooga catcher, here for trial;
Mike Radonovich, rookie hurler,
from Gary, Ind, and Steve Mol
ner, another rookie, hailing from
Wolf Greek, Mont.
Jack Russell joined the squad
which left Washington on Satur-
day by jumping on the train at
Montgomery, Ala.
He spent most of last night talk
ing with President Griffith and
came out of the huddle a signed
man.
More Arrivals Today

persons of Luke Sewell and Moe

homes; Tommy Thomas and Bob

up unless he would say beforehand
that he was willing to accept

Pitchers Hal McKain and Al
McColl were not among those pres
ent last night and are not ex-
pected to report for another week.
McKain is at Hot Springs at pres
ent, working off some extra pound
age, while McColl is conditioning

ton of Trainer Jensen, of the

Micro-Wayes Aid Radio,
According to Engineers

While still in the experimental
stage, radio engineers see in the
new ultra-short micro-waVe a means
of extending the limits of radio and
perfecting televisioE. says Path
finder Magazine. These new waves
which were discovered by Marconi
are free from static and fading and
offer a channel by which messages
and pictures can be flashed between
distant points In a fraction of a
second instead Of several minutes
as is now required. II is predict
ed that facsimile messages will re-
place the dot-and-dash system It
is also thought that the same speed
and economy of transmission which
viii open new fields for radio COM
munication will make television q
practical fact. Sixteen pictures q
second is all that is required TO pro-
ject moving picture upon a screen.
The main disadvantage of the new
micro-wave is that it disappears at
the horizon instead of following the
curvature of the earth. To over
come this 1t will be necessary 10
erecr booster stations every 20

DRESDEN PLATE"
CROCHETED RUG
BY GRANDMOTHER CLARK

In Colonial days patchwork quilts
and rag rugs were very popular.
During the past or years patch
work quilts have been the leading
item of interest for home art needle
workers. In 1888, when the crocheted
rag rug in quilt design appeared,
women all over the country took
great interest in this new and beau
tiful way of making rag rugs. The
old rugs were either round or oval,
crocheted row after row until de-
sired size was obtained. Changing
of colors was the only variation. In
quilt design rugs many beautiful
combinations are possible and the
work is really interesting.
Illustration above shows the
Dresden Plate" rug, named after
the Dresden Plate or Friendship
guilt, a pattern that every woman
knows. This rug is another popular
pattern, measures "a inches and can
be made from 40 or. of Grandmother
Clark's rag rug strips or 30 OF. Of
''Linkraft," the new woven material
for rag rugs.
