REGULARSWIN BATTLE
Dutch Works Three
Innings, Allowing
a Hits, 2 Runs
BY FRANK BUCK" o'NEILL

Dy FBGkANN DUNN " AAAA
ORLANDO, Fla, March 14.-f
Dutch Leonard is reported miss
ing one of these fine mornings,
Jimmy Wasdell will be arrested Oh
suspicion. These young ball play
ers, reputedly firm friends and
room mates did not eat dinner
together last night. They did not
eat breakfast with each other this
morning. They did not ride out
to the grounds together.
No one has heard them even
exchange greetings since the ninth
inning of the rookie-regular game
yesterday. Leonard stole all the
glory of the afternoon, struck out
his pal and roomie, and had the
rockies shaking their heads. He
had them waving their bat in
futile fury at his roller coaster,
sometimes called a knuckle ball.
Leonard worked three innings,
allowing four hits and two runs.
In the ninth inning when he had
to protect a two-run lead he did
it in style. The rockies got one
blow in the ninth, a fine leftfield
single by Taft Wright, who timed
one of the dancers and put the
wood on it with real power.
WASDELL BAFFLED
But Wasdell put no wood on
the dancer. He stood there at the
plate looking for a fast ball from
his pal. Mickey Livingston catch
ing give no indication that any
thing but a fast ball was to be
pitched. The first knuckle ball
came up and dropped inside for a
strike. The second flopped to the
outside for a strike.
you amt seen nothin' yet,"
called Leonard.
He threw up the third roller
coaster, and the darn thing did a
falling leap flop and an Immel-
man turn all in one. Wasdeu
looked, swung and looked again.
He smiled a sickly sort of a grin
and walked to the bench.
Snake in the grass" Wasdell
muttered darkly.
That same type of pitching win
save many a game for the Griffs
this season. Leonard simply had
his stuff in carload lots, and be
yond the knuckler, his fast ball,
thrown from the same motion,
was all right.
GAME LITTLE PROOF
The game, which the regulars
won by score of 9 to 7, was jusU
the sort of battle you would ex-
pect at this time of year. 1t proved
little except that Leonard really is
well along in his training. 1t
proved that Chase and KrakauS.
kas need a lot of work off the hill.
KrakauskaS issued only one base
on balls, but he was working up
hill most of the time. He laid one
in the slot for Pete Appleton, and
the latter hit a run-Scoring three
bagger.
Chase gave three bases on balls
and allowed three runs. He is con-
fronted with the task of getting
that ball over the plate. The
pitchers refused to hurt their
arms, and everything must be &C
cepted conditionally.
BITTER BATTLE
Wynne was as wild as a hawk
in his stay on the hill, but even
so, impressed as a lad who one
day is going to be pitcher.
Joe Kuhel got four hits, two Of
which were not too good, but they
counted. He showed to far better
advantage in every way than
Wasdell, with whom he is fight
ing a bitter battle for a place on
the team.
Livingston is the smootheSt
catcher on the squad, but he has
to prove that he can hit. His work
IN the last half of the game was
sweet to watch.

Expanded Program

They not only have their
clubs in precincts 2, 4, 5, 10 and
II, but they have a summer
camp not far from Point Look
out, Md, where many Of the
10000 members has an oppor-
tunity to spend as much as two
weeks each season-far from the
sitting heat.
Sergt. John Scott is in charge
of this activity and he'll give
you glowing reports of these
eager youngsters enjoying vaca-
tionS never before made avail
able to them. Scott tells me they
even have their own garden
where enough vegetables are
grown for camp requirements.
Meantime, a Boys Club band
has been organized, unit you
have no doubt recognized around
town and on public view.
But probably as vital an
agency to any growing boy as the
police clubs provide is the den
tai and medical service in
which the best practitioners par
ticipate.
Such are many of the ad.
vantages available to Washing
ton youngsters who would be be-
reft Of them were it not for the

Four Years Old

It was just about four years
ago now that the first boys club
OF the Metropolitan Police was
formed in Southeast Washing
ton sector where the juvenile
problem was by no means Incl
dental.
Instead OF loading the young
Hniscreants into the Black Maria
and harassing their parents UNI
necessarily, a building waS\
rented and the doors thrown
open for planned recreation
wrestling, boxing and tumbling.
Immediately the number of
complaints about boyish Of
fenses commenced to recede.
Housebreaking by kids has sub
sided from 101 cases in 1888 to
"a in 1887. Where 200 auto
mobiles had been borrowed"
by boys four years ago, only So
such escapades enSued last year.
Such plain arithmetic impels
the thought that Major Brown
"haS something" in his boys
clubs. The fact five of them
flourish today proves the theory.
They are performing a civic
function and at the same time
making good athletes.

Do Not Shrink

Thus a war chest of $4,000
for 1888 is being sought, SO
when the finger is put on you,
don't shrink away from these
boys. They need you-badly.
Some pretty solid citizens
have identified themselves with
this boys work, which is recon-
mendation enough. Jim Colli-
flower has assumed the presi-
dency of the organization this
year and has aligned with him
a strong personnel.
There are some titles, but
that isn't as important as the
fact that men such as John
Remon, Jim Councillor. Bill Shell
ton, Morris Cafritz, Bob Flem-
ing, Ray Garrity, Gordon Leech
and Bob Mcclure are serving
in one capacity or another. Mrs.
John Allan Dougherty heads the
women'S auxiliary.
You will notice there are a
lot Of Bills and Jfns and Bobs
in the setup, just as there are
boys around Washington with
similar names who need con-
siderable guidance for their idle
hours, And that's the kind of
men they are-men who like
to be called by their abbreviated
first names, all regular guys.
And by now the movement to
turn the footsteps of this class
of youngsters into proper chan
nels has gone far beyond the
original intent.

 When the diamond nine is played, East should not take his king. Credit for an expert play is given for this. East should hope that the declarer will take a second diamond finesse,
 whereupon he can win and give his partner a ruff.
 South, after winning the nine of
 diamonds trick, should cash the ace and king of spades, the ace of diamonds, and then ruff dummy'S
 last club. Now a diamond trick is I'D, and nothing can prevent the declarer from getting ruff with the king of hearts and making the
 last four tricks.
 1. In which suit should South open the bidding?
 2. What should be North's first response to South's opening bid? 3. If North and South try to bid a slam, should they prefer to play in no trump or one of their trump suits?
 4. What is Vests best opening lead, if South plays the hand ct . slam contract? f You can earn credit for expert play on this hand.

 "An exhibit of commercial pro- ducts, stage hardware, paints, types of lumber and canvas, samples of costume material and dyes, sound effect records, makeup material with charts, lighting equipment, a basic library of production books, as well as plays, will be mounted for easy display. A discussion meeting will be held to explain the uses of the many articles.
 Further discussion meetings will give the delegates opportunities to consider the problems of financing children's theater program, of publicizing a play and of the respon- sibility involved in a community project for raising and maintaining high standards"
 In concluding, Miss Grant stated that these technical conferences, held every three years, have proven valuable in enabling the Leagues to pool their experiences in the chil- dren,s theater field.
 "They have given the professional staff an opportunity to get broader view of the whole children'S theater movement and of the needs which must be met in establishing sound community programs in this field," she said.
 And don't forget that those 30O,- 900 children who saw League plays are only a slight indication of the untapped audience"
