Drama in the sky is the theme of Thirteen Hours By Air" which begins @ three-day engagement at Warmer Brothers Strand theater today. The cast includes Fred Mac- Murray, that casual young man who has risen spectacularly to stardom in a little over one year; pretty, blonde Joan Bennett; fiuttery ZaSu Pitts; and ingratiating John How ard, to mention a few.
 Thirteen Hours By Air" is the story of romance and intrigue aboard transcontinental passeng- CT plane. It's an oddly assorted lot of passengers the ship is carrying a girl who says she's a socialite; a nine-year-old heir to a fortune of millions; a doctor" who reveals a surprising lack of information about medicine; and two other suspicious looking male passengers.
 The entire story is played with such swift speed and flnesse that 1t leaves you breathless. The casting throughout is irreproachable. Tn ad- dition to fine performances by Mac Murray and Miss Bennett, there are grand interpretation by zaSu Pitts as governess of the annoying heri, and by Bonnie Bartlett as the heir. John Howard, Allan Baxter, Brian Donlevy and Fred Heating deserve especial mention, but the entire film Is credit to everyone connected with 1t.

Along New England Sport Trails

Boston, June 4.-(UP).-Along England sport trails:
 For e team that usually tops all eastern collegiate hines, it's Q para. dox how few real stars Holy Gross has contributed to big league base- ball. The athletes who've jumped from Jack Barry's Worcester aggre- gation to the big show and stuck for any length of time can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
 Freddy Mcguire, the stylish sec ond baseman, was the most success. full. He must have been up close to 10 years with the Giants, Cubs and Braves but Mcguire was still young when he faded out through light hitting. .Blondy Ryan hung on three or four seasons with the Giants, Phillies and Yankees and finally wound up in the minors. .. Doc Gatreau, formerly of the Braves, was another Crusader who found the big league pace too stiff.
 owen Carroll, most publicized of all Holy Gross pitchers. was shunt- ed among the Tigers, Yankees. Reds and Dodgers, always showing flashes but never living up to the promise of his college days. Red Desau- tels, one of Worcester's greatest catchers, had Q long trial with De- troit only to wind up in the Pacific Coast league. Arnold (Jigger) Statz, who went from Holy Cross to the Chicago Cubs, is outflelding in the same circuit.

PARKS RATED AS SURE Ex-CHAMP AFTER J. s. OPEN
Defending TitlehOEder Has Had Tough Year of
 Criticism
By GEORGE KIRKsEY

-
 Springfield, N. J., June 4.--(UP)-- Sam Parks, jr., has just 48 hours left in which to wear the national open golf crown--a diaden he had no right to win in the first place according to the experts.
 Two more suns and Parks will be- gin the defense of the title he as- founded the golf world by winning last year at Oakmont Country club. There are 16o other shot makers, survivors of an original starting group of 7,278 entries, in the field. Few of them are conceded less chance than the champion.
 The 27 year old Pittsburgh chap will be shorn of his title in this tournament, there's little doubt of that, but they can't make him lose his mental equilibrium or sense of proportion. After years siege of ever had to take while holding the criticism, the most cruel any golfer hardest title of all to win, Parks can still smile.
 "They said was lucky to win at Oaknont," Parks said. Maybe they're right, and maybe they're not. Oakmont's a year away, and here we are at Baltusrol and I'm here to play again."
 The bookmakers are quoting Parks 5-1 shot in the 10th U. s. open, starting Thursday over the historic Baltusrol course. That's the same price they offered on him in the Oakmont tourney.
 T should be 100-1," said Parks, tits twice as hard to repeat in the open as 1t is to win the first time. Only three golfers ever repeated, and Bobby Jones was the only one to do 1t twice in row in the last 20 years. So you can ses what kind of a job have ahead of me-"
 Since Parks won the title with his strategy and putting on the tricky Oakmont greens, he has completely revolutionized his game.
 T knew I had to change my game if I intended to go any place in golf" he said. My game was too loose and fiippity- -fioppity."
 Parks was asked what kind of a game 1t would take to win at Baltus- rol-a long driver, a great iron player, or a superb butter.
 Tt takes more than golf shots to win an open title" he said. "An or- dinary player who can keep his nerves under control for four rounds has a better chance than a great player who can't"
 Parks plan, from now until the first shot is made Thursday morn- ing, is to rest, relax, and take 1t easy. He has played six practice rounds over the championship layout of 6,50S yards, but hasn't kept any score. He may play another round or 80, but won't take 1t seriously.

 The three who finished in Q tie for first, second and third are: George Gearing, Hugo Lange and Bart Quilter. Gearing is the scratch man of the tournament and will shoot for 38 Lange will play for 28 and Quilter of the handicaps no one has been installed as the fav- orite. Close contests and Q large audience are expected, when the worries start to click at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening.
 Tom Lefty" Lawlor had the high run of the tournament scoring nine consecutive points against Lange.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-06-04

It's a strange season that finds no Holy Gross representatives in the big leagues, and 1036 is no excep. ton. The ex-Crusader with perhaps the best chance of becom- ing major league fixture is lanky Joe Morrissey, who played the out- field in his four years at Worces. ter but is currently playing the role of reserve infielder for the Chicago White sox. Al Niemic, recent Holy Cross infielder, is bench.warn1- ing with Connie Mack's Athletics and expected to be farmed out for experience almost any day. .. Eddie Moriarty, greatest natural hit- ter in Holy Cross baseball history, has been optioned to Wililamsport in the New York-Penn league by the Boston Bees. Weak hitting has been the fault of most Holy Cross big league prospects but in Moriartys case ite lack of fielding polish.
