CorrosqueI Deemed Hill Asset
For Years by Mats Despite
His Apparent Ripe Age

With Dutch Leonard, Joe Haynes,
Walter Masterson and Carrasquel
the Mats have an abundance of
capable right-hand pitching.
AS the Mats collided with the Red
Sox here today, seeking to extend
their embryonic winning streak to
three games, it was to mark the
fourth consecutive game in which
Harris has tossed a right-hander
at the opposition. Joe Krakauskas
and Ken Chase still are regarded
as starters, especially in view of
Chase's neat relief chore several
days ago, but their appearances may
be more infrequent if the quartet
OF right-handers continues to click
In his last 18 innings of service
Carrasquel has yielded only seven
hits and three runs and he hardly
is harming himself by issuing bases
on balls, having dealt out only five
over that stretch. He has famed
comparatively few, but solid smashes
off his bewildering pitches also have
been spaced at lengthy intervals.

against Carrasquel yesterday at
Griffith Stadium, with the rangy
South American twice retiring eight
batters in order. Not until the fifth
did the Browns score, when Joe
Glenn walked, stole second, con-
tinued to third on Ferrell's wild
throw and scored on John Berar-
dino's double to center.
Travis Triple Scores Lewis.
From that point Carrasquel was
more stingy with his safeties, for in
the last four innings he allowed only
one hit, single by Don Heffner in
the eighth, and that promptly was
nullified when Pinchhitter Johnny
Marcum drilled into a double play.
The Mats registered run in the
first inning when Cecil Travis
sliced a triple down the left field
line, scoring Buddy Lewis, who had
singled. They added two more in
the fifth on successive singles by
Ferrell and Carrasquel, a wild throw
by Right Fielder Thompson and a
sacrifice fly by George Case.
Ferrell scored again in the seventh
singing sharply to left. moving to
second when Carrasquel walked, to
third when Case also walked and
across after Lewis flied deep to
Thompson.
Roxie Lawson started for the
Browns and allowed only seven hits
in his seven innings of labor, with
Marcum tossing the last inning.

Woodruff Expected

Among Hot Fovorites
To Grab LuureIs
BY BILL BONI,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, May 26.-A 20-man
gang from the University of South
ern California goes into today's
qualifying trials of the SD I. c. "A
track and field meet so heavily ia
vored to retain its team title that,
for once, individual battles rather
than the team fight hold chief in
terest.
Conservative estimates place the
Trojans' score for tomorrow's 16
finals at Sc points, higher by 91a
than their 1888 winning figure and
more than double that given any
other of the "a entrants. Add to
that the fact U. S. c. is expected to
win six events and place in all IL
in which it is entered, and it be-
comes obvious why the Trojans'
rivals can't get steamed up over even
a mathematical chance of beating
them out for team honors.
Woodruff Has Record Chance.
The individual contests are so,ne-
thing else sg.:il. Here a 6-foot r.
inch Negro giant from Pittsburgh
should take the play away from
Dean Cromwells amazing pupils. He
is John Youie Woodruff and he is
counted on to hang up a record that
escaped even the great Ted Mere
dith.
Long John. 1896 Olympic 300
meter champion, this afternoon will
run in the 440-yard and 880-yard
trials and anchor the Panther four
some in the 1-mile relay elimina-
tions. Tomorrow, he again will run
all three, with an 80-minute inter-
val between the 440 and $50, but
only IS minutes between the half
and the relay.
No matter how he makes out in
the latter, Long John can set an
al-time meet mark by winning his
two individual races. He has done
1T the last two years and no man
before him has done it three years
running. The $50 appears as a
soft touch, but in the quarter the
competition from fellows like Erwin
Miller of U. S. c., Jim Herbert of
N. Y. U. and Fordham's Yves WAL
lace may be hot enough to push
him under Al seconds. That's the
I. c. "A record, which Woodruff
equaled in 1887 and 1898.
Other Favorites.
Other favorites are Lou Zam-
perrin, U. S. c., who should have a
virtual Walkover in the mile; Tro-
jams Jim Humphrey, Earl Vickery,
Bud Day and Bob Peoples in the
high and low hurdles, pole vault
and javelin; Pitts Frank Obi in the
220, Frank Ryan of Columbia in the
shotput and John McLaughry of
Brown in the hammer throw.
Defending champions are Day,
Woodruff, Wilbur Greer of Michi-
gan State in the 100; Howie Brill
of N. Y. u, shot; Nick Vukmanic,
Penn State, javelin, and Arson
Pedina, Princeton, broad jump.

Eastern received its sectional title

Tech obligingly knocked out Ana
costa, 8-4. Early pace-setter of the
series and conquerer of both East
ern and Tech, Anacostia couldn't
solve young Heine Webb's assort-
ment of curves in the pinches, and
wasted II hits. After a shaky start,
in which Anacostia scored runs in
the first inning, Webb settled down
and had things pretty much his
own way.
Tech got to Art Faircloth, ace
Anacostia chucker, for runs in the
first innings, and supported its
pitcher in errorless fashion.

Record Field Assured
For Sailing Race 10
Gunston Cove
Potomuc's Entire Active
Fleet Is Expected to
Sturt Tomorrow
BY MALCOLM LAMBORNE, Jr.

More entries than received in any
other weekly race here this spring
are assured for the fifth annual
Memorial week end regatta Of the
Potomac River Sailing Association
which gets under way tomorrow
afternoon at Alexandria, according
to DR.. Albert Pagan, race chairman.
At least 40 boats, comprising the
entire active fleet of the season, are
expected to start in the 11-mile
race to Gunston Cove for the Com
modore's Cup opening the 3-day
regatta. District Commissioner Mel
vim c. Hazen will fire the starting
gun.
Variety of Boats Compete.
A full roster of 20-footers, snipes
and A, B and c handicap classes
will compete, ranging from the
beamy catboat Bobcat of Corin-
THAN Yacht Club sea scouts to the
little moth, Fancy Pants, of Daniel
Ayres.
The opening event, a handicap
race, will see the small Glass C craft
starting off at l pm, Glass B and
snipes at 1:30, Glass A and comets
at 2 and 20-foot restricted class at
2:30. To the first boat to finish on
corrected time will go the cup given

by Commodore Paul G.. Tomalin.
Another trophy will be awarded for
the first craft actually to cross the
finish line off Gunston Cove gas
buoy.
In the meantime shippers are
scanning charts and studying cur
rent and tide tables for the longest
race on the local sailing calendar.
In starting the smaller and slower
boats off first, race technicians ex-
pect to give all a chance at the
prizes. High tide at Alexandria at
3 pm. will force the feet to buck
a flood current for only portion
of the slide downstream.
A Grace series in Gunston Cove
is slated for Sunday, following a
rendezvous at Fort Belvoir tomor-
row night. The six divisions COM
pete at 1890 am. and 1:30 pm.

The regatta concludes on Tuesday
with race back to Alexandria from
the cove. This will start at noon.

BOSTON, May 26.-A grab bag
chattel whose lynx-like optics never
before had been focused on a major
league baseball game today was
being ticketed as the outstanding
rookie pitcher of the 1889 crop. His
name is Alexandra Carrasquel, a
bargain counter moundsman who
currently is proving a spectacular
surprise to followers of the Nationals.
The raw-boned, silent Venezuelan,
whose diamond apprenticeship was
served in such ports as Caracas,
Santo Domingo, Colombia, Puerto
Rico and Cuba, in the short span
of a week has demonstrated he
reishes the thick, tender steaks,
brass-buttoned service and whole
some fanfare of his present COM
parative Utopia. He wants to stick
and is taking the shortest route.
To date the serene and sWarthy
right-hander has displayed a studied
indifference to the brand of hitters
now comprising the American
League. His intriguing varied de-
livery and assortment of pitches
has stynlied some of the league S
more respected swatters and if the
combined opinion of Manager Bucky
Harris and Catcher Rick Ferrell is
worth the retail price of grain of
sand in the Sahara, Carrasquel will
remain effective for some time.
= Twice Hurls Brilliantly.
In the brief period of seven days
Carrasquel has captured the imagi-
nation of the baseball armament,
for in that time he has embarrassed
Detroit with four hits and only yes
terday shackled st. Louis with three
safeties, Al.
How much of a relic Carrasquel
is remains something of a mystery
and comparatively unimportant at
the time. He claims 26 and appears
"a or so, but he is strong, his style
is effortless and he doesn't even
draw a deep breath after hurting a
tough game. He may last for several
seasons. At least the prospects of
this seem bright.
HE has great control and a de-
ceptive delivery" informs Ferrell
"He doesn't talk our language, but
he knows baseball inside out. He
does everything right, or at least
he has so far, and he's never ruffled
Sure, he oughta last long time
He finishes just as strong as he
starts. Even in tight spots he
doesn't give those hitters anything
good"
Harris, too, is inclined to feel
Washington fans will be viewing
Carrasquel in action for some sea-
sons. The Mats pilot particularly
is enthused over his hairy hurler's
rapid rise, for Alejandros patches
of brilliancy have given the Mats
a pitching staff which will bea,
scrutiny.

Carrasquels past two perform.
