THINK CAVALCADE

I great 3-year -oldS of

~ through their final tune
ups today, the eagle-eyed rail-
birds became convinced that
Cavalcade will have to be at

The big race over a mile and a
quarter will be run at Washington
Park tomorrow with probable field
of IL facing the barrier. including
the big four" of the 3-year-old ranks
-Cavalcade, Discovery, Singing Wood
and Mata Hari.
Two reasons, one involving tradi-
ton, caused many of the railbirdS
to doubt Cavalcade's chances for VIC
tory tomorrow First, he must tote
1875 pounds, giving away eight pounds
to his foremost rival, Discovery, the
Alfred G. Vanderbilt hope that has
run right behind him in every one
of their duels this year. With such
weight advantage, many believe,
Discovery will be able to reverse mat
tiers. Secondly, only one horse has
succeeded in winning both the Ken
lucky and American derbies. He was

Act of Ferrell Boys of Red Sox Unique
First Case in Majors Where Bro theirs Have Been Battery Mates
BY JOHN STAIR,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

The Ferrell boys, who are here
today and who have made their
share of base ball history separate
ly, now are getting their chance to
make some more as an "act,"
thanks to Thomas Yawkey's willing
purse strings.
Mr.. Yawkey, millionaire owner
and builder-upper of the Red Sox,
made little history himself,
merely by swinging the deal that
brought Brother Wesley, one of
the American Leagues most re-
putable pitchers, to the same club
where Brother Rick Is earning a
rating as one of the leagues
choicest catchers.
In the memory Of base balls
Oldest living grads there is no
precedent for this newly put
together battery of brothers on the
same big league team.
To be sure, base ball archives
are dotted with brother acts" but
the Ferrell case is unique in sew
eral ways other than that it is the
first where brother will be pitch
ing to brother in big league war
fare.
For one thing, they came up to
the big show separately and made
their regulations strictly on the
basis of their solo performances,
with different clubs. 1t wasn't a
case of sign me. sign my brother"
with the Ferrells of Guilford, N. c.
Inseparable in the of season,
Wesley and Rick have for years
been associated as team mates in
other sports. Crack basket ballers
in college, they have transformed
around Southern hardwood courts
with their quintet, have golfed to-
gether and teamed on duckpin
teams.
But in base ball they have been
foemen, until now, since the days
when, with three other brothers,
they pitched and caught their
team to the Guilford County
championship. In fact, one of
their clashes" on the diamond
produced one Of the games most
touching human-interest episodes.
That was on the occasion of
Wesley's no-hit game against the
St. Louis Browns on April %, 1881,
when Rick, Browns catcher, came
to bat against his brother with
the latter within two put-outs of
the supreme pitching achievement.
Rick, beset with mingled emo
tions as he faced Wes, was bound
by the ethics of the game to do
his best" to spoil the imminent no.

r IOME from a trip on
~ which they rose from a
position six games be-

two and a half games of the

run into rough going right at

Six games-four with the Red

alton that cooks up a puzzling
problem for Joe Cronin.
While the champs curving corps

the double-header tomorrow, though.
Cronin plans to rely on. his reserve.
He proposes to shoot at the Bos-

bean southpaw, and AL Thomas.
chunky orthodox chucker. Although
a regular starter at the outset of
the campaign, Thomas now is reck-
oned a reserve since the big four
Weaver, Whitehill, Stewart and
Crowder-has begun functioning so
well.
Should these pitching plans carry
through, Cronin then will call on
Earl Whitehill for the Sunday game
and 60 along with a brace of regular
starters Tuesday when the AS drop
in for a double bill. Monday being
an of-day. the manager figures his
f1rst-stringers will be primed for work
when the set with the AS gets under
way.
The champs got a lot of sturdy
pitching to take two of the three

wound up yesterday with the Yankees
being licked, to 3. Even in the

Both sides registered at the plate in

double and Manush's triple got the
Nationals score that chased Van Alta
from the contest. One was out IN the
Yanks' half when passes to Crossetti

next inning, after two were retired,
Lazzeri accounted for the final home
side score with a homer hit into the
right field stand.
1t was single by Schultz that began
the Washington uprising in the ninth.
After Harris sacrificed, Travis drew a
pass. Stone went up to bat for Phillips
and hooked single to right. This

the hit bounce by, Travis also dented
