1T Is a nice place. It's a very
fine place and I'm sure you will like
it," said Reddy. I'm glad to know

Buddy Baer,
Barlund Tangle
Tonight

NEW YORK, Mar. 4. (UP)-Two
of boxings most promising young
sters-Buddy Baer, brother of the
former heavyweight champion, and
Gunnar Barlund of Finland-Will
clash tonight in a ten-rounder at
Madison Square Garden.
Young Baer, whose brother moves
into the Garden in a comeback"
attempt against Tommy Farr. OF
Wales next Friday, was an 8-5 ia
vorite to defeat the hard-hitting
Finn.
The winner probably can have a
shot at Joe Louis heavyweight
crown on April 20. Promoter Mike
Jacobs is reported considering the
winner as a "tune-up" opponent
for the Brown Bomber in his con-
ditioning for a title defense in
June against Max Schmling.
Assuming that Baer wins, 1t is
very unlikely that Ancil Hoffman,
his manager, will throw him into
the ring with the champion this
year. He has brought Buddy along
slowly and thinks he. still is year
or more away from the top-flight
ranks.
Baer expects to scale 241 pounds
the lightest he ever has been for
a fight-against around 202 for Bar
Iund. Baer has a five-inch edge
in height and a nine-inch reach
advantage.

National League

National League
GIANTS-Doubt over Slick Cas-
tleman's physical condition may
make it necessary for Bill Terry
to swing a deal for another right
handed pitcher. Catcher Gus Man
cuso seems to be definitely ticket
ed to go elsewhere. OFT stays at
third and Leiber, reported fit,
booked for center
CUBS-Effect of Tony Lazzeri's
addition to club as one of manager
Grimm'S lieutenantS may play big
part in this teams showing. Plenty
of ability but have weakened under
pressure last two years. Cavarretta
slated to play first, and Triplett,
rookie outfielder, expected to win
job.
PIRATES - Pitching better and
addition of Catcher Berres gives
Pirates first class receiver. Rookie
Outfielder Rizzo expected to win
regular berth.
CARDINALS = League big ''if"
team. If Dizzy Dean comes back
and Rookie Outfielder Slaughter
lives up to his reputation Cards
may be team to beat. Infield un-
certain but plenty of material on
hand. Catching weak unless Pad
gett, last years outfielder, comes
through in new role.
BEES-Trying to add punch to
the leagues weakest hitting club.
Much depends on whether Turner
and Fette can duplicate last years
20 victories each. Several dark
horse rockies. ..-
DODGERS-Misfit castoffs and
Mungo. Durocher at short and Co.'S
carart from Portland at second may
help infield defensively. Punch and
speed needed in outfield.
PHILLIES-No improvement. One
or more of their stars may be sold
to Giants or Cubs.
REDS - Prospects of having
leagues best pitching staff. Due
for big improvement if any OF
rookie outfielders make good. De-
cidedly not a last-place outfit.
