Travis Is Batting Star.

n FTER an uncertain start, remlnlS-
cent of the way they started and
finished against the Dodgers the other
day, the Nationals yesterday lived up
to all the nice things that were said
about them down South. Ed Linke,
using his new heating pads for the
first time, gave up two runs in the
first inning, but the Washingtons,
helped by triple by the same Mr..
Linke, took 30 lead in the second
frame and were never headed there
after.
Linke gave up nine hits and all
the Phillies' runs during his six in
nings Of pitching, but Ed had the
situation we'll in hand. Jimmy
DeShong, making his debut in the
Capital, breezed through the last three
innings.
The Nationals, in the meantime,
were hitting harder as the game wore
on, reaching their peak in the sixth
inning when II men walked to the
plate and pounded across six runs.
Cecil Travis was the big gun, getting
four hits in five times at bat, scoring
three runs himself and batting across
three more.

Years Against Heinie.

THE ravages of time, however, are
about due to tell on the veteran
Heinie Manush who probably will get
first call on the left field post. He had
lean year with the stick last season,
compiling an average Of .273 with
Washington, but Heinie has been a
pretty potent batSman in the past and
perhaps being with winning club will
make him forget his lame back and
the advance of years.
Mel Almada will be in right field, and
although there have been indications
in the Spring training that he is in
for a good harvest, the records show
that he batted 290 last year. Dusty
Cooke, who batted .306 last season,
hasn't performed too we'll in Spring
training, while Bing Miller, who in
sists that years mean nothing to a
fellow who loves to play, is about ready
to turn the game over to the rising
generation.

Prim ONLY Victor.

ON THE other hand they gave such
eminent lefties as Elon Hogsett
and Joe Sullivan of Detroit, Russ Van
Alta of the Browns and Al Hollings-
worth and Tony Freitas of the Reds,
pretty thorough goings-over. And
lesser lights-Rogers of the Red Sox,
Petit and Cohen of Chattanooga,
Smythe of Montreal, and the Phillies'
pair-were dealt with equally as
severely.
The first of their half dozen VIC
tories over southpaws was achieved in
the middle of March against Adrian
Zabala of Albany. Number 2 was
Leon Petit, who was driven from the
LookoutS' box at Daytona Beach in
the second inning. Smythe of Mon
treal, which was beaten, IA to 4, was
No. 8.
Prim, the only left-hander to stop
the Nationals, did it for Minneapolis
by a 5-to-4 count on March "a and
since then Washington hasn't been
licked by southpaw. The Harrismen
licked Hollingsworth of the Reds,
8 to O.; Freitas of the same club,
4 to /, and yesterday, as mentioned
before, whipped PezZulo and Ber-
trand, II to 3.
The IA southpaws who pitted their
slants against the Nationals have
worked, by way of summing it all up,
a total of SO innings. And IS hits,
good for the neat total of 65 runs,
have bounced off the Washington bats.
It might be a good idea for Joe
Mccarthy of the Yankees to take
note of it in case he is thinking about
sending Lefty Gomez to the rubber
next Tuesday when the American
League season opens.

n Jew YORK, April ll.-When
M Tom Yawkey Of the Red Sox
" sits in his box at Fenway Park
a next Tuesday afternoon, his
eyes probably will roam significantly
to the outer fairways where a couple
new hands will be digging in their
spikes.
For there are many, and Yawkey
probably is one, who feel that whether
the owner restores base ball dynasty
in Boston will be determined to a
major extent by the shaggers who
range the outer reaches.
Roger Cramer, taken in the deal
that decimated the Athletics, is a good
bet to take care of things in center
field, but there is some skepticism
among the fans as to whether the men
who flank him will rank up to the
caliber needed for a championship
team. Cramer belted the ball for an
average of 1892 last year and there
weren't many complaints about the
way he behaved in the field.

INCOME AT NEW
HIGH0N MOVE

The national income produced
in the United States in September
not only recovered fully from the
setback in August but rose to a
new high peak for the long-term
upward trend which has been in
progress since early in 1888,
according to the Alexander-H Hamil-

The national income in Septem-
Der amounted to $5,3S3, 900, 900, as
compared with $5,025, 100000 in
August and with the previous re-
covery peak of $5,376.O00.OO0 in
october of last year. The national
income in September this year was
1875 per cent larger than in the
same month last year and more
than double the depreSsion'S low
figure of $2,778, 100000 in March,
1888. At the same time, it was
800 per cent below the pre-
depression peak Of $7,786,000,000
in October, 1929.
The national income in the
first nine months amounted to
$43, ,584, 100000 this year as against
$37, ,730,000,000 last year an in
crease of 15.5 per cent. It is prob
