VENzKE 7 OPS
MARYLAND
MEET
BY HARRY COSTELLO

Gene Venzke, University Of
Pennsylvania's great miller, and
one of the greatest runners Of all
time, should prove the Nsegnet to
draw thousands of people to Byrd
Stadium, University Of Maryland,
this afternoon.
Venzke will not be without COM
petition in the invitation 500-me-
ters. He will be pitted against
Johnny Follows, former University
of Minnesota star and Oxford
Rhodes scholar. Follows is Met
ropolitan indoor champion at the
distance and has Alb mile to his
credit.
Besides Follows, Venzke has as
opposition Harry Williamson and
Hubert Lewis, both we'll known in
Southern Conference circles. No
less an authority than Bob Fetzer,
of North Carolina University,
Claims that both Williamson and
Lewis are dangerous competition,
even for a Venzke. Despite this
claim, Venzke is a topheavy favor
ite to win the event.
Two ID. C.. Titles
Local collegiate interest Is con-
centrated on today's District A.
A. U. track and field champion
ship meet. Maryland, George

tives. The New York A. c., the
Stonewall Democratic Club of
Baltimore, the Washington Track

will send athletes for this after
Moons competitions.
A number of D. c. A. A. U.
records will be endangered in to.
days meet, and, more than likely,
number Of new marks will be
hung up.
More than passing interest is
attached to the hurdle events,
for in both high and low events
Mike Norton, c. us ace, will
clash with Wilmer Bradley, of
Georgetown, and Gallaudet's two
star hurdlers, Leicht and Ladner.
First Real Test
The 800-meters event will mark
the first real competition since ne
entered college of Coleman
Headley, hailed by University of
Maryland authorities as possibly
the greatest half-miler ever to
represent a school in this vicinity.
Young Headley looks the part of
a great athlete and his perform
ance this afternoon will be
watched with the greatest Of in
tereSt.
The field in the 80O-meters is
classy one, for it includes Head

difficulty in taking both the 100

Interest in track and field in
this vicinity has Jagged some

here in recent years, should mark
the sports return to popularity,

WIN virtually 4udEIcE VI C41c
season completed, there is only
one surprise team-the st. Louis
Browns, who under the mastery
leadership Of Rajah Hornsby-
have exceeded all expectations of
everybody but the Rajah himself
and even he may be a little sur
prised.
Cleveland perhaps, is a little
stronger than was generally be-
lieved but in their case it seems
to be more a question Of the
others weakness rather than
their own overwhelming power.
It may be a little surprising,
too, to find the American League
so much better balanced than
the National. The American
League is so we'll balanced in
fact that one great hitter or
one outstanding pitcher could
turn the trailers into leaders.
The junior circuit still is a wide
open race with almost everybody
having a chance to get some
where.
Five-Team Race
The National is apparently
strictly a five-team affair with
the Dodgers, Phils and Reds
hopelessly outclaSSed, although if
the first named could find an
other Mungo they would soon
drive into the thick of the fight.
However, pitchers like Mungo are
like teeth in chicken-rather
rare-and it is unlikely that
Casey Stengle will come up with
one.
The Cardinals have shown
some signs of trying to make a
runaway race but the Cubs,
Pirates, Giants and Braves will
not be shaken off very easily.

Just Reminiscing
In retrospect anent the Nc
Larnin-Ross fight, probably no
championship event in any
weight ever found so varied an
opinion between two judges as
the chasm which separated the
views of Tom O'Rourke, who
gave Ross one round and Har-
old Barnes, who gave Barney
twelve.
Luckily for Ross, the man on
whom it devolved to decide,
saw almost eye to eye with
Barnes, Referee Eddie Forbes
giving 13 rounds to the winner
and new weiterweight cham
pion.
Several fight fans have asked
me if I thought that the Irish
in Judge Tom O'Rourke was
responsible for his awarding Ross
but one round, to which I say
that I am convinced there is
no sentimental connection be-
tween the Irish caste Of Nc
Larnin and O'Rourke.
They're Bad Guessers
I think that newspaper
writer's are uncommonly poor
Judges of crowds, however
good or bad their opinions of
the merits of sports events
may shape up. Fifty-five thou
sand was the lowest estimate
put on the McLarnin-RoSs
crowd by those in the press
pews, yet the actual paid was
just shy of 10000. Throw in
a couple Of thousand dead
heads and the writing boys
still look pretty poor on their
guess.
When Barney Ross was
knocked down by McLarnin in
the ninth, the crowd yelled.
And the lads mother, sitting
in the inner circle, rose to her
feet and exclaimed:
"He was NOT knocked down.
My Barney only slipped"
She thought her boy won and
Sammy McLarnin, 72-year old
father of the vanquished
thought Jimmy won. Such is
parental pride which any pappy
or nanny can understand.

HITS BATTING
STRIDE ON
ROAD
By GARRETT WATERS
Times staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 30.-"He's
the most promising outfielder IN
the league today. I like his
chances, and believe he'll go great
guns with our team"
Baseball's David Harum, Clark
c. Griffith, uttered these words OF
praise about Johnathan Stone,
outfielder this spring while the
Griffmen were at training camp
preparing for the season which
has now reached its first turning
point.
The gray-haired prexy made
this statement in a feeling OF
satisfaction because only a few
months before he had corraued
his new prize from the Detroit
Tigers after years and years Of
effort to land the young per-
former.
At training camp, Stone i'm
mediately began to bear Griff's
words out by crashing through.
He hit both left-handers and
right-handers with ease and
backed this up by turning in a
fine game in the field.
AIternates With Harris
Shortly after the season began,
Stone fell into a Woeful batting
slump, with the result, Manager
Cronin instituted an alternating
system which found Dave Harris
playing rightfield against left
handed pitchers, and Stone per-
forming when a right-hander was
on the mound.
On the Western trip just ended,
Stone began hitting the ball
again. Cronin noticed this and
Immediately advanced him to
fifth position in the batting or
der where he has delivered in
timely fashion.
Today, Stone is once again in
the spotlight as one of the Griff's
best batters. His actual hitting
average is under the 800 mark,
but he's made amends for this by
smacking 'em in the pinches, or
starting rallies.
Because If his new steps to
prominence, Manager Cronin
stated today that the lanky out
ielder would figure Importantly
in the Griffs lineup against the
Yankees in the three-game series
beginning with today's Memorial
Day double-header at the Yankee
Stadium.
Stone Will Start
Stone will be in the game today
regardless of what type Of pitch
| ing the Yanks will throw at the
GriffS. Said Cronin:
"JOhnny can hit both left
handlers and right-handerS when
he's right and he'll smack fel-
lows like Gomez and Van Alta
if the Yanks use them. He's
"hot" right now and despite the
fact that Dave Harris is usually
good against the SOuthpawS. I
believe I'll use Stone in right
field in all three games here"
It will be interesting to follow
Stones efforts in the series.
There's no getting around the
fact he drives the ball high, wide
and handsome when he connects,
which fact might help him to a
couple of home runs into the
short right field bleachers at the
Yankee Stadium-the haven for
all long distance left-handed hit

And yet the mere christening
Of some wiggling infant with
the label your own parents
handed you, brings raptures of
ecstasy to the man of woman
who happens to be geared just
that way.
A Small Beginning
Which brings us around to
the point we've been trying to
reach for the last four para
graphs. It is that yesterday at
quaint old Charles Town, w.
Va, they held the first running
Of the Kirk Miller Handicap,
and therein comes a distinction
which I am sure the House of
Miller, so long as it survives,
will cherish profoundly.
True, the event was a mere
claiming race Of six and a half
furlongs for 3-year-olds with
only the very modest purse Of
5000, to be distributed among
the first four horses, but, my
friends, let me remind you that
all great things must needs have
a small beginning. Who knows
but what in future years
throngs will go to the cozy lit
tie track in the Shenandoah
countryside to acclaim the win
ners of the Kirk Miller Handi-
cap just as they are betimes
drawn to the Kentucky Derby,
the Preakness, the Withers, the
American Derby and the likes
Of those races? I repeat-who
knows? Do you? I don't!
Beginning to Learn
Folks are beginning to learn
that professional boxing in
Washington, like repeal, is not
going to turn out to be either
a bonanza or a grab bag by
which to become rich overnight.
I understand that the gate
at the Riding and Hunt Club
event Monday night was some
thing short of the $1,500 mark,
despite the fact that reports
had more than 5000 people in
attendance. It was neither a
financial failure, therefore, nor
a gigantic monetary success.
The card was only fair on the
face Of it, yet the novelty Of it
being the first professional
fight held in Washington filled
the house.
The recent Golden Gloves
tournament in two nights of
operation totaled in the vicinity
of $1,000, yet it was a magnetic
attraction that should have
packed in many times those
who took advantage of the two
night stand.
Two Sound Lessons
So within eight nights we
have our first amateur show
here, which, if people are going
to respond in droves for boxing
shows, should have turned them
away, and our first professional
scraps, which. with a packed
house, goes under the $500
mark,
