Marshall, Savoldi Attract.

TN HIS last local start Mcmillan
i subdued Rudy Dusek and looked
better than ever before here while
doing it. He played the ropes in great
style and landed five tackles squarely
and successfully to down the rough
Nebraskan.
Earl McCready and Harry Fields,
two of the better-f1ight hefties, are
listed for the semi-windup, but sec
ondary interest in the show likely will
be paid Everett Marshall and Joe
Savoldi, who will oppose in one of
the three Commute exhibitions.
Marshall is one of the most well
coined of the upholstered gents, here,
and since his last local appearance
has supplanted Ray Steele as No. |
ranking contender for Londos' won
Crown. During the last couple of
years Everett has licked the likes of
Strangled Lewis, Gus Sonnenberg, Don
George, Ray Steele, George Zaharias,
Gino Garibaldi and Joe Malcewicz as
well as holding Londos to a couple of
two-hour draws.
Savoldi still is rated around the
top, his best performance being that
dubious victory scored over Londos
last year in Chicago.
The other two prelims, one of which
will start the show at $3.50 o'clock, are
Joe Dusek VS.. Ernie Zeller and Joe
Sh1nkus VS.. Dick Raines.

Open Date an Asset.

III EMEMBER, too. there'll be an
II open date between the Chicago
and New York SERIES" he
pointed out. THAT should benefit
us. Why, I'll have my entire pitch
ing staff in line for those three i'm
portant games. I feel certain that
series will be one for the possession
OF first place And how we will be
prepared for it,"
There is no doubt about it. The
Nationals. although well walloped
here yesterday, are sitting pretty in
this hectic American League struggle.
They appear to have more in a base
ball way than any of their rivals at
present. It looks as though any club
able to squirt for few games before
the end of this month might we'll
assume command of the struggle for
some time.
While the Nationals haven't
skinned along so fast recently as
have the Indians and the Browns, they
have progressed at speedier pace
than all other rivals. And they surely
appear superior, to the Indians.
Against the Browns, no. That is, to
date. But this st. Louis outfit that
has trimmed the Nationals the four
times the two clubs have met really
doesn't class up with the holdover
champs when it comes to a stretch
drive. The Browns have marked
weaknesses. Cronin's charges have
not discovered them thus far. but too
many other clubs have to make the
Browns really serious contenders in
the flag fight.
There was more wrong about the
Nationals yesterday than Stewards
pitching Two of the five runs made
off the left-hander were not earned.
A slip by Myer was responsible for
them. And the first time the Ma
tionals appeared inclined to stage a
rally needless base running by Harris
smeared the threat.
This is no alibi for the Washington
clubs defeat. AS the game was
played, it was all the Browns! Had
the Nationals performed steadily,
however. it would have been a strug-
gle right down to the finish.
