Ray Blades No Front Office"
 Boss, He Says
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY


 St. Petersburg, Fla, April 4-(UPl Managing the St. Louis Cardinals always has been considered slow suicide. You can win the pennant and still lose your job. Ask Rogers Hornsby, Gabby Street., Bill Mc- Kechnie and Frankie Frisch.
 But being boss of the Cardinals holds no terrors for Ray Blades, who has spent 20 of his A years working for Sam Breadon and Branch Rickey as a player, coach and Minor League manager. Blades predecessor was Frisch, who, ac- cording to the grapevine stories, lost his job because he clashed with Hickey on how to run the team. If that wasn't the big reason, it was At least one of the contributing causes.
 That's lot of applesauce about MT. Rickey going to run the Cards from the front office," said Blades the other day. T wouldn't be d manager in name only. I'll have all the say on the field as I always have had.
 "In the six years that I've man. aged Columbus and Rochester never had MT. Rickey tell me what to do. He's made suggestions and told me his opinions about ball players. I've. listened to them but I've always made my own decisions l might add that I've nearly always found MT. Rickey right when ne told me anything"
 Having been out of touch with the National League since 1923, Blades said he expected to seek lot of advice.
 I'm only too willing to listen to anybody who has suggestion to make and that includes my coaches. Buzz Wares and Mike Gonzales. and anybody else who's been around. And I would be pcor chump if I didn't consult my superiors for ad- vice but I'll make the decisinos and take the responsibility. If I'm wrong then I'll take the blame. If things work out successfully I want my players to get the credit"
 With second base one of the Cards big problems, Blades has had five men, Jimmy Brown, Creepy Crespi, Stu Martin, Lynn Myers and Mau- rice sturdy, working out at that bag
 His Own Boss
 T didn't have to ask anyone when I moved Lynn Myers over to second from short" said Blades. T am trying out all combinations before pick the fellow I want to play se- cond."
 Blades was an outfielder with the Cards in his playing days from 1922 through 1882 except for one year. 1929, at Rochester. He managed Columbus three years, winning the pennant and little world series in 1883 and 1884 He moved to Ro- chester in 1886 and ran second that year, fifth in 1897 and third last year. His home is McLeansboro, Ill. Seventeen of the players on the Cards squad have played under him in the minors.

Fate of the Martin Scully trophy and the 1938-39 championship of the Washington Park Community Basketball league will be wrought simultaneously tomorrow night when the Raymond Hillies meet the Gents of the Hill in the final of 8 three game playoff.
 Deadlocked with one win apiece the two teams, who have thrilled packed houses with classic playoff performances starting last Wednes- day, are on edge for their final encounter of the season. Park of- ficials are faced with the major problem of finding space for the huge crowd expected to bulge the walls of the Community house to witness the battle.
 The Gents won the opening tilt with smashing 34-13 victory, but the Hillies recovered last Friday

 inski vs Satryb

Some of the classiest amateur boxing talent in Connecticut and Massachusetts is scheduled for showing in Waterbury Thursday night at Buckingham Hall, spon- sored by the Waterbury A. c. All the local favorites, Dick Turcotte, Tommy Ciarlo, Frankie Mars, Jackie Moriarty. and Sam Craig are listed for action with worthy opposition, while the battle between Charley Baginski, "ace" of the Springeld team, and former New England ann ateur featherweight champion with Bill Satryb of Rockville is some thing to look forward to.
 Locally, most of the interest seems to be concentrated in the Tommy Ciarlo- Bobby Williams bout, one of several crackerjack bouts lined up for action. William stopped the rought, tough Harp Tomany on the last card, and there was genine good fleeing when it was announced that Williams would try to bring about the same result with Ciarlo, who has had three hard fights in succession, two with Bobby Ellis, and the last one with Red Doty of Hartford, which resulted in draw. Ellis, by the way, is also on this weeks card and has tough little egg to contend with in the person of Georgie Jordan, the Springeld Greek. Henry Davis. of New Britain, last years state bantam champion, was signed yesterday for Billy Saito of Springeld. The Hardware City boy, classy colored clouter, never fails to give a good account of him. self regardless of the opposition.
