scramble desperately to hold on at

He had the best lifetime earned

so much faster than Grove or Feller

they couldn't see it. Half a team

pitcher who can do that today.
With a better hitting ball club he
might have won 40 games a year
for 10 years. There never was a
pitcher close to Johnson-and YOU
know it. Bob Feller is a great
pitcher. Johnson, working with this
Cleveland club, would win about
40 games and lose 3.
He never tried to dust a man off.
I worked with him for years. He
was always afraid he was going to
hit and hurt somebody. He was one
of the gentlest men I've ever known.
But what a pitcher. Oh, what a
pitcher! The greatest baseball has
ever known. Why? He just hap
pened to have more stuff than any

consignment of baby racers from

colts imported from England that
brought top prices.
The eight British-bred yearlings
were sold for $4,000, averaging
S6625 a head. The entire consign-
ment of 81 yearlings. including two
offered by Henrietta Bingham,
brought only s2Oa,55o, an average Of

This average was somewhat lower
than the s4,715 of last years Han

Hancock's Virginia establishment.

Two of the imported babies
aroused the greatest interest. One,
a chestnut son of Hyperion, out Of
Gwyniad, brought the top price Of
$4,000. He was sold to the Chris
tiana Stable of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry
w. Lunger of Wilmington, Del, after
a spirited bidding duel with Jock
Whitney. Another. a bay colt by
Bahram-Quick Action, interested
the crowd particularly because Of
the recent sale of his famous sire,
Bahram, by the Aga Kahn to a
group of Americans, including Alfred
Vanderbilt, Walter Chrysler, jr.:

colt was sold to Chrysler for $4,000.
A Kentucky bred colt, by Blen-

second best price of the night. going
to Mrs. E. Graham Lewis for S12,5O0.
Whitney again was an unsuccessful
bidder.
To some extent, at least, the Ham

but the crowd was so big some had

Joe Turner Gets Permit;

A permit authorizing enlargement
and improvement of Turner's Arena
was issued today by the District
building inspectors office, thereby
ending rumors Promoter Joe Turner
would shift next winters indoor
activities to Riverside Stadium.
The plan calls for extension of
the building to include small
parking lot on one side of the arena
which will increase its seating ca
pacity from 1900 to approximately
5000. The building will be air.
conditioned in an effort to relieve
the tobacco smoke nuisance, but
will not be cooled for summer ac-
tivities. The promoter intends to
continue outdoor promotions at
Griffith Stadium.
Turner first. proposed enlarging
the arena two years ago, when its
small seating was blamed for the
caliber of ring shows. 1t was argued
that its capacity was not sufficient
to support better fighters, who de-
manded purses he was unable to
pay. Increased revenue from the
new seats is expected to eliminate
this obstacle.
Meanwhile, a brisk advance sale
is reported for George Abrams 10
round bout with Cocoa Kid coming
up Monday night at the ball park.
The sale already has passed the
$4,000 mark, according to Match
