his rout of Virginia'S fin
est golfers today by downing
Billy Howell, Richmond city
champion, 8 and 7, in the finals
of the Country Club of Vir-
ginia tournament.
In previous rounds, Dawson, who
was the tournament medalist, de-
feated Bobby Riegel and Chandler
Harper, the latter the Virginia ANA
teur champion, and gained the finals
TO oppose Howell.
The Chicago star completed the
morning round 6 up, and it appeared
as though Howell was due for a drub-
bing. Howell; however, made a gall
liant stand, only to go down on the
twentieth, where he was over Daw-
sons regulation figures. Dawson in
creased his lead on the twenty-third.
where he also got par to Howell's
6, and then made victory practically
assured when he won the twenty
sixth to go up.
Howell matched strokes on the
turn hole, the twenty-seventh, and
pulled Dawson's lead down when he
had a birdie on the par 4 twenty
eighth, but when Billy could do no
better than halve the twenty-ninth,
Dawson won.

Display First Real Punch of
Spring in Defeating
Braves, 8 to 2.
BY the Associated Press.

~ OSTON, April 14.-The
- Boston Red Sox uncorked
their first real punch of
- the Spring today when
they bombarded Ben Cantwell
and Leo Mangum for a total of
13 hits and gained their first
victory in four starts against the
Boston Braves, 80.
"Rube" Walberg, former Athletics
southpaw, went the distance for the
Sox and gave the battering Braves
six hits. two of which were homers
by Wally Berger and Joe Mowry, the
only National League scorers in the
intercity tilt
Carl Reynolds was the real power
in the Red Sox attack, with a four
Dagger and a double, blows that ac-
counted for just half of his teams
tallies. The former st. Louis out
fielder made his circuit drive off
Cantwell with two on base in the
sixth and his two-bagger, against
Mangum in the eighth, came with a
runner on second.
The Red SoX and Braves will play
their fifth and last game of the series
tomorrow. The Braves clinched the
series yesterday when they gained
their third straight win.

Burns and Melillo the Browns have
no chance as I see it. ] don't be-
lieve Hornsby will help much as an
active. He'll be playing in rocking
chair. At best, the Browns are an ex-
perimental team.
Now for the National League, briefly.
I like the Cubs to win because they
have everything needed to make a
good ball club. Bush, Warneke, Root
and Malone will give them a lot of
fine pitching. Klein is an entire bat
ting lineup in himself and he'll have
Cuyler. Herman. Grimm, Jurges and
Hartnett to back him up. And those
Cubs can field. They're good.
They look better to me than the
Pirates, who ought to finish just
where they did last year-second-
and the Giants, due for drop from
first place to third
The Pirates were the best-hitting
club in their circuit last year and
ought to pack telling punch again.
They have good pitching, too. But
they handicap themselves afield. The
Giants, believe, played above their
heads last season. This time they
should drop to their proper level.
They are defensive outfit altogether.
Their pitching must be right up to
snuff or they're all but helpless. I
don't look for them to get such great
hurting this time.

st. Louis Dark Horse"

THOSE Cardinals of st. Louis may
prove a dark-horse club. With
the Deans, Haines, Hafahan
and Walker there is lot of pitching
in the outfit. The Cards have the
hitting and the fielding ability, too.
They shouldn't be worse than fourth
and might 60 higher should any of
the trio picked to finish above them
slip ever so little.
Top Of the second division looks the
spot for the Braves. Flashes defen-
sively, they have a batting weakness
that probably will keep them out Of
the select group. Brandt, Cantwell.
Farmhouse and Belts are pitchers Of
class and McManus may add to the
infleld's punch. But the Braves will
miss Maranville.
There is little to choose among the
Reds, the Dodgers and the Phillies.
The Reds appear to have the edge in
pitching. though, and under lew own
ership and live-wire manager In
Bob O'Farrell probably will prove
more peppery this year. The Dodgers
can hit and they'll play ball for Casey
Stengel or else. All the Phils had last
year was their batting. Now that
Klein has gone they haven't much OF
that,
