SEVERAL SedSO1lS'
The big fellow means a great
deal to the Washington ball club.
He is fine, polished catcher, and
when in form has a throwing arm
that is second to few in baseball.
He is Iight-handed hitter, and
that, too, means much. This club
needs a right-handed batsman who
can pour the ball over fences such
as bound the fields in Detroit, Chi
cago, st. Louis and Boston.
Bolton Due Wednesday
Cliff Bolton is the subject of
much speculation. Bolton is eX-
pected here on Wednesday to hold
a conference with Clark Griffith.
According to well-founded adviceS,
Bolton has been pretty badly
crippled with rheumatism this
winter, and whether or not he will
be in condition to start work when
he arrives is a question. Beyond
this, there is just cause to queS-
ton Bottoms ability to stand up
under the rigors of a major league
campaign.
Little Walt Miles is in town
prepared to fight it out for a regu-
lar place in the lineup. Miles is
fighting ball player. Last year
when Bolton packed his trouble
in his car and left the club on
short notice, Miles was nursing
a broken finger.
"What of it?" he demanded.
'T'n catch, broken finger or no
finger"
Zone of the cold OriOles?"
said Harris, with joyous grin
on his face.
"HeI, no. Just a guy from
Chicago" replied Miles.
Hogan will be an asset whether
he is first or second Stringer re-
ceiVer. If a man is in scoring po-
sition, Hogan can be sent up there
to hit the ball, and he'll come
right close to hitting it. He can
go into game in the late innings
and guide a struggling pitcher
over a rough spot or two. He's
no gazelle on the base lines, but
he's a major league receiver.

It was Branch Hickey, you

A Coming Catcher
Probably the most talked-of 1887
rookie is one Arnold Owen, devel-
nped at COLUMBUS (American AS
sociation), Ohio, another st. Louis
Cardinal chain counter.
AS early as last May 80, out at
the Indianapolis Speedway, I
heard of this marvellous young
catcher. even so early the talk Of
the scouts, all of whom realized he

improved since.

Starting this week
a b u n c h of b u C k =
toothed boys are re-
porting to their first
major league C a m p,
hats in hand and hearts
where their tongues
ought to be.
It is this annual crop of re-
cruits which forms the hub Of
speculation around which so
many words are spilled, both
by the writers and the fans
throughout the broad expanse
Of baseball.
Such kids are the life-blood of
the game, are these big, bashful,
broad-shouldered lads who come
wide-eyed into the upper strata OF
the game, exploring for the first
times it's imaginary bugaboos.

pleasure at the decision of the ring
officials, any number of men in
timately connected with intercolle-
giate boxing scored Farrar at all
the way from one-half a point to
a point and half in front of
NedomatSky. This with proper
deductions made for unethical con-
duct in the ring.
The single decision Of the night
which brought booeS from the
crowd was the one which gave
Tom Birmingham. of Maryland, a
win over John Murray, of Clem-
son, in the 125-pound class. Appar-
emily the ring officials did not
penalize Birmingham at all for
rules violations. In the press box,
nearly all were satisfied that Muir
ray had won by wide margin, but
the decision went to Birmingham,
who employed any number of
tricks not permitted under inter
collegiate rules.
Except for the laXity of the
referee and judges, which was CO.
loSsal, the eleventh annual ring
meet was efficaciously conducted.
One could sense behind the success
of the event the hand and clever
ness of James Curry Driver, of
the University of Virginia, Amer
ica'S premier promoter and con.
ductor of amateur ring events.
Not Satisfied
Supporters Of Duke are not at
all satisfied that Nedomatsky won
over Farrar-under intercollegi-
ate rules. Also, and decidedly in
point, Dukes supporters knew Of
the large wager made on the bout.
Before Farrar entered the ring one
Duke enthusiast unloaded himself
Of the opinion that, because of the
big bet, Farrar would be judged
the loser no matter how far out in
front he might be in the contest.
When NedomatSky and Farrar
entered the ring there was a tense
ness among officials which made
itself felt as far away as the press
box. Indeed, it appeared that the
referee and the judges were sort

The Washington times., 1937-03-01

Those Sighs, almost audible,
made one wonder if the officials
had been notified in any manner
of the fact that a rather large
wager, thousands of dollars, had
been made on the Nedomtsky-Far-
rar fight.
knowledge of the bet was quite
general in and around College Park
when the final bouts of the
eleventh annual ring tourney Of
the conference got under way at
8 o'clock Saturday night.
Pro Rules Sub
Incidentally, the Nedomatsky-
Farrar fight witnessed the COM
pete casting out of intercollegiate
rules and the substitution therefor
of strict professional rules, includ-
ing the rule of protecting yourself
at all times.
Both boxers were guilty of fla
grant violations of the amateur
rules governing ring contests in
the intercollegiate league. This
observer, in scoring the bout, took
off 281a points, of the total of so,
because of the tactics employed by
the two opponents. OF the remain
ing 3112, Farrar, under strict in
tercollegiate rules, won 16 and
NedomatSky 1917.

Joe Cascarella is in town and
looks like ready money. He is
tanned under the sun here where
he has spent the last couple of
weeks. Joe is a much better
pitcher than he is a golfer, but
don't tell him I said so.
Salveson makes life miserable
for Eddie Linke and Jimmy De-
shong, who fancy themselves on
the fairways.
Johnny Mihalic will have his
usual battle to make the grade here
if Buddy Myer makes good. Buddy
proved himself very much Of a
man by accepting the contract of
the club without argument after
his illness of last year.
If he comes back, as all hands
here hope he will, some of the
boys will have a lot of time off
this summer.
OsSie Bluege, the old master of
the infield, will be the clubs utility
man once more. He might have
one more great season as a regular,
but as a utility man he will be
here for several years adding to
the lutser Of the club. Buck New

four games from first-division clubs

ORLANDO, Fla, March 1.-The
Gallons of Washington's baseball
hopes today embarked upon the
flood tide, bound for an unknown
destination. The voyage will end
next September. The argosy may
be storm-tossed on its way. It
may, with bad luck attending,
land upon the mud flats Of failure.
AS it sailed today, with pen
nants streaming in the bright sun
of the State of Flowers, fortunes

ing at the right hand Of the god
dess was ability. With fair for
tune attending, the craft may
reach the home port at the end
of the cruise among the elect of
baseball.
This, naturally, is the hope Of
Stanley Raymond Harris.
Logical and cold in his calcula-
tions is Stanley Raymond Harris.
He has been around too long in
baseball to build false hopes, or
to fall into the common error of
ignoring strength at hand.
Baseball men throughout the
country place the battle for the
American League pennant be-
tween Detroit and the Yankees"
said Harris this morning as he
dOnned his uniform to direct
the first work of 1887 at Tinker
Field. "YOu cannot ignore the
team that won the pennant by
19 games, and the team that
won the championship Of the
world in 1885.
"Yet the Washington club
cannot be ignored. We beat the
Yankees Oftener than any other
team in the league beat them,
taking ninn games. We broke
even with the Tigers.
IF we showed that power last
year without the aid of Buddy
Myer," Harris said emphaticalIy,
chow can we be read out Of the
pennant fight before it starts?
Naturally, we claim no .Ien-
nantS. We start no pretentiOns
beyond what our ability seems
to insure for us on the field. We
will be in the fight for first di-
vision rating from start to fin
ish. Third place is not an i'm
possibility.
Where are we StrOnger?" He
repeated the question. Gas I see
it, we will be stronger in the
battery positions. Johnny Salve-
son may make us real pitcher.
I am willing to stake no little of
pretentiOnS and hopes on his
right arm. He has been through
the fire of major league trials.
He has been strengthened by
previous failures to stay in he
big loop.
Il say strengthened because
failure in previous trials, added
to SaIveSOn'S determination to
win, has detracted nothing from

lost only seven games, and that's
great pitching. He showed IA
games on the winning side of the
average, and when you get those
pitchers, you must rate them as
worthy of every chance to make
the grace.
'Maybe we have no great
