spite the fact that their infield adj

to beat out the Cincinnati Reds in
the coming National league race.
Possibly on the knowledge that a

reason, 80 out of 76 experts polled
by the Associated Press pick the Red

again, while two like the Chicago
Cubs ond one lone rebel plunks for
the Pittsburgh Pirates.
If the Cardinals should make good
for the g%uessers, their victory would
climax one Of the most sensational
rises to the top in recent baseball
history. Two years ago they finished
nowhere, and even when the 1888
campaign began they were not con
sidered of pennant caliber.
Yet, after a slow start last year,
they suddenly began booming In
midseason and before it was over
they had given Cincinnati a genuine
scare. Only in the final week of the
campaign did the Reds overcome
them in a crucial series. In that vital
series, incidentally, the young St
Louis pitchers held Cincinnati score.

innings.
Whichever wins this time, the
preponderance of opinion is that the
Reds and Cards will finish one-two.
Nine voters, however, picked Chica'

named the Giants, four the Brook
Ign Dodgers and two the Pirates.
Otherwise, the experts appear tt
be pretty we'll baffled. Two clubs
were selected to finish in six differ

to wind up in every spot except
eighth. The Phillies had them block

Aces Triumph 90 Over
FAYETTEVILLE Net Team
Four Matches Won By Locals
In Straight Sets; Rain
And Wind Hamper Play

The New Hanover High school
tennis team strengthened it's hold
on the eastern state championship
yesterday afternoon with a 6 to 0
victory over the Fayetteville High
school METERS on the Robert Strange
courts.
Playing in drizzling rain through
out the match, the locals conquered
the wind and the visitors in straight
sets, with the exception of the fifth
and sixth matches, which went to
three sets.
Lionel Johnson lost little time in
taking the measure of Dawson in
the number one match and drove
the Fayetteville METER from the
courts with a 81, 60 win which CON
siderably boosted his chances in the
state singles meet.
Nelson Taylor downed Kanos in
quick fashion with his cross court
game to win by 60, 81. The visitor
was weak on the net and Taylor
passed him at will.
Charles Boney enjoyed a shower
bath during his match played in al
most a downpour to defeat Stone in
straight sets of 81, 81. The hard
driving to the baseline and the high
we'll placed lobs of Boney caught
Stone flat-footed in the ~backcourt.
Jerould Robinson started slow, but
soon found his touch and came
through in his match with Autry to
win Ga, 6-1.
Charles Edwards dropped the first
set to Crumley but came back stead
lily in the second and third to win
at 81, Ga, 6-3. Edwards lost the
first set by soft drop shots on the
net which he failed to drop back
safely, but he found his chop in the
last two sets and pulled away to
win.
John Evans downed a steady chop
ping Carter in the final singles
match after being forced to three
sets to win 6-2, As, Ga.
The girls and boys teams will go
