But even so, the thousands of
fans expected to wend their way
into the turnstiles. will realize that
the edge has been taken off some
what by the mot so good" show
ing of the Griffs to date, despite
the fact that an eleventh-hour
comeback was made at Phlla-
delphia yesterday when Tommy
Thomas pitched Cronin and Com
pany to an inspiring victory.
Practice Session Today
With this thought in mind,
Manager Cronin announced today
that his gang would be subject to
morning practice sessions, begin
ming today and lasting until all on
deck had reached that form sup
posed to be part of the teams
makeup at this hour of the cam
paign.
Cronin's aim here is easily under
stood. He realizes his men haven I
been at their best since the start
of the campaign, and it is MS
thought to help 'em reach tnat
peak, which practice and only
practice will accomplish.
Last Weeks Plans
Said the boy manager TO-DAY:
eyes, we'll be practicing from
now on every morning until we
begin to play better ball. Inc
pitchers will get extra work on
The mound in the special batting
drills on tap. The hitters Will
ret plenty of work up there at
The nIate, even if it takes them
until game-time each day to get
their eyes on the ball. We've
inst got to resort to this tOr
swhile in order to get into best
form for our games ahead"
That opener tomorrow, incl
dentally, will be all OF that
planned last week, but when mao
tn be postponed because Of rain
President Roosevelt will throw
out the first ball, while the sew
eral boxes around the President
will be filled with dignitarleS from
both houses of Congress.
SOx Show Strength
The start of the game will be
at 3 o'clock. The gates OF the
park will be thrown open at 1890
Goldman's band will entertain the
early arrivals.
The contest will reveal one of
the most improved ball clubs in
the history Of baseball in the Bos
ton Red Sox.
Particularly does the new Sox

entry boast of hitting strength.
A youngster by the name of
Julius Solters, acquired from the
Baltimore orioles during the
winter, packs a great punch,
while such experienced men as
Carl Reynolds, Eddie Morgan,
Ray johnson, Rick Ferrell, and
Joe Judge have, to date. kept a
continual rattle Of basehits off
their bats.

Then, too, the Washington Sub.
urban youngster, Bill Werber, has
been a shining light, especially
with the fail, the department sup
posed to be a weak point in
Werber's status in the past.
Thus, fans, you can CLEAN from
all this why Manager Cronin has

men must be at their best to cope
with opposition of the Red Sox
sort, and the only way to match
it is by being as strong. if not

Four Alexandria girls. Rose
Theimer, Gladys Lynn, Mildred
Drake and C. Anderson are COM
peting in singles and doubles and
in so doing are showing real
sportsmanship and gameness. Hav-
ing no league averages, the Guar
tet must roll in Glass A against
the recognized stars, such as Lor
raine GULL and Billie Butler.
At that. however, theirs is not a
hopeless cause, since anything
can. and sometimes does, happen
when the fair timber-topplers
fight it out in the city tourney,
Last year. for instance. Mildred
Miskelly won the Class A singles
with a 1862 set, turning in games
of 146, 106 and 10. She is a good
bowler but doesn't figure to come
out on top in a field which in
cludes such Sharpshooters as Miss
GULL and Mrs. Butler, who rate
number one and three in the ma
tional rankings.
Out Of the Money
Instead of winning, the same
Miss GULL and Mrs. Butler fin
ished so low they were out of the
money, in so far as singles is con-
cerned, although they went on to
win other titles in the event.

Charlie finished exactly one stick

bowling, failed to get across when
George Montzouris proved urag.
Harding surprised by it's show
ing, and Captain Seyfarth is

Pentalpha had a good team,
with the pep being furnished by
Wesley Miltner, lut they had one
weak spot that they never filled.
Barrister was considered a pos
sibility from the beginning, but
Leo Speer experienced one of those
nightmare years, and therein lies
the story. Joppa, with Irving
Billheimer, was one of the sur
,prises of the year.

Billheimer rolled a timely big

win in the last box to account
for 26 of their 81 wins.

THOMAS WORK
IN BOX TONIC
To GR|FFS

Just the tonic needed to pep
up the team.
That's what yesterdays 4-to-3
triumph over the Philadelphia
AS meant to the Griffmen, back
home today to begin a long
home stand that will keep them
at Griffith Stadium for the next
% days.
And what a contest it was
added to the fact that 20,303
persons turned out to witness
the fun, the first legal Sunday
baseball attraction the city Of
Philadelphia has enjoyed in the
history of the American League.
The most important thing was
the excellent pitching of Tommy
Thomas, veteran Highlander,
who travelled the entire route
something no other Griff hurler
has been able to do since the
seasons start.
Next in Importance was the
fight the Griffs put up from be-
ginning to end. The team went
into the game with its back to
the wall, through losses suffered
earlier in the week, but Thomas
good pitching was such an in
spiration that the tea m kept
fighting all the way.
But Thomas pitching. Words
fail to describe his efforts, so
excellent they were besides the
pitching served up by his team
mates during the early part Of
the week.
Manager Joe Cronin said after
the fray that the pitcher twirled
a smart game all way through;
that his fast ball worked better
than at any time since the op-
Grafton on his arm, and that his
stamina promises even greater
achievements before the season
ends.
The contest itself was a fitting

inning. The features were Fred

This latter bingle by the young

first part of the ninth when
Manush and Cronin singled with
one out and Schultz sent a long
fly to Johnson, in left, which
enabled Manush to scamper over
the plate with the run that
turned out to be the margin Of
victory.
But this didn't end the excite
ment, as the AS threatened in
their end of the ninth when
Jimmy Foxx singled with two out.
However, Tommy, still pitching
with all the heart of a Custer"

the sort of ball that forced the
dangerous hitting McNair to line

didn't find that new system of
betting on the horse races at
Jamaica Saturday any great
improvements was just as
easy to lose as it was before.
Seriously, it was a diStanct
Improvement and no metropol.
itan racing season in twenty
years has opened as cheerfully
and auspiciously. Everybody
seemed to want to be in on it
save those most vitally inter-
eSted-the horSemen.
Maybe the horsemen are "too
hot in their ways" to meet and
accept anything resembling
change, even a change for The
better. Maybe they just don't
care. The indubitable fact re-
mains that the opening day
card was far from brilliant
and today's card is worse.
Let us take Mr.. Max Hirsch,
an intelligent, personable and
popular gentleman, as horri-
BILE example. For forty years,
or since the days when he
was a spindly-legged jockey in
the early COS, Mr.. Hirsch has
made a pleasant and profitable
living from horse racing and,
for the most part, horse racing
In New York state.
He is now the successful
trainer of what is known as a
public stable. My further under
standing is that he has more
than so head of race horses of
various ages in his barns. Yet
I could not find even one entry

lamentable short gala" pro-
gram.
Fans $4,000 Strong
The fans were there, $4,000 of
'ern, with their money in their
hands, hungry for excitement,
hungry for good horse racing,
begging for a chance to help re-
habilitate the sport. The posi-
bilities of a great reawakening
must have been obvious to the
most casual observer; the oppor-
tunity to make this a paying
season for the tracks, the horse
owners, trainers, jockeys, book
makers - everybody have the
players.
But the horsemen must have
been down behind the barns
whiting.
What good the governors sig

use a commission, what help
crowds of 10000 at the tracks, if
there are no horses and no rae
ing?

bles and Johnny Moran, they'd
have wound up with a couple of
