WAIVERS BELIEVE
IN BOSS FRISCH
Think New Pirate Manager
Will Put Lot Of Steam In
Club This Year

TAMPA, FLA, Feb. 1s.-tR-In
as neat a brother act as you'll find
anywhere, Paul and Lloyd Waner,
the mighty mites of the Pittsburgh
Pirates, today allowed that fiery
frankie Frisch, the new pirate boss
was likely to put a lot of steam into
the 1910 club.
Paul did the talking. Lloyd put
in an amen where it was needed.
1--WE been playing major league
baseball IA years." Paul said, and
I've never made a preseason pre-
diction yet"
1--WE been in 10 years, and ditto"
Lloyd echoed.
But" Paul went on, II believe
Frank Frisch is going to be a big
help to the Pirates as manager. All
of the players on the squad have ad-
mired Frisch for his ability as a play
err, his fighting spirit and intelligence
as a manager.
Sure, we were on the other side
of the fence, and frankie was a
thorn in the side of every other Ma
tional league club, but he's a great
ball player and that's what you've
got to admire"
Both Paul and Lloyd think they're
in for good seasons this year, despite
Lloyd's setback in 1889.
We've played golf at Sarasota
daily for six weeks. We're both in
the best physical condition in years.
The Pirates should do better in 194O,"
said Paul.
Il wouldn't be surprised If we
didn't give the other top flight clubs
a real battle all the way. But" he
added with a grin, IF you want to
make out-on-a-limb boys out of us,
you've come to the wrong place."
This, in parting, from the man who
over a period of IA years in the Ma
tional league has a batting average
of .S42. Brother Lloyd, in 10 years,
has an average at the plate of .S21.
"Heck," Paul concluded, 1--WE could
always play baseball. Even back in
high school where Lloyd and ]
weighed about 12O pounds each, we
didn't have any trouble in hitting.

CHl0zZA INTENDS
TO PLAY FOR N. Y.
Will Hold Down Third Base
If Will To Come Back
Means Anything

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 1S.-1R
Hard luck Lou Chiozza- will be
sharing them at third base for the
New York Giants before the sum-
mer's out, if the will to come back
means anything.
A review of events OF the past
three years proves conclusively
that hard luck and Chiozza go hand
in hand.
A good season in 1887 was spoiled
by a stretch slump. In 1888 he
was sen home with a broken
shoulder. Last July h collided
with Jo-Jo Moore while trying to
snag a Texas Lacquer against the
st. Louis Cardinals, and broke his
leg in three places.
Today he says he is determined
to take over the Giants hot spot
again, although his chances for the
coming a do not look so
bright.
"I'd just found myself when I
broke my Leg" he said. 1--WE been
working hard to get we'll, exercising
and jogging every day, and I've
made progress"
He admitted, however, that Luke
Appling of the Chicago White sox
was about the only ballplayer ever
to suffer a badly broken leg and
then rise above his previous per-
formances.
Chiozza still runs with effort and
he's 10 pounds under his usual
ITS. He hopes his hard luck ink
has been broken, however, and is
primarily concerned as to whether
his leg injury may impair his
speed.
Regardless of final outcome, Chi
ozza, Manager Bill Terry Of the
Giants, and Louis doctor-though
they didn't say it-indicated that
Lou was not expected to see much
playing service before mid-season.
THE third base job is open and
it's Louis if he'll make it his" was
Terry's comment.

$4,000 Santa Anita
Derby Draws Interest

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 1S.-R-
The sixth running of the $4,000
Santa Anita derby on Washington's
birthday and the $4,000 San An
tonic handicap Saturday last
major stake engagement before the
800, 900 Santa Anita handicap -
commands national turf interest
this week.
The rich derby at a mile and a
furlong Thursday promises to draw
a record-sized field of a score or
more three-year-olds. The entry
of Mrs. Ethel Vxmars, Gallahadion
Tough Hombre and Chatted, fig
ures to be a powerful threat, but
in a field as large as is anticipated
the outcome of the drawing for
post positions is vastly more i'm
portant.
For the San Antonio handicap
Charles S. Howard is expected to
use his priced combination of a
Seabiscuit and Kayak II in an
other move to get the two into
top shape for the $1OO, 900 cap on

Heather Tied For Lead
In Western Golf Open
Demaret, Williamson, Wood
And Todd Deadlock With
Tar Heel Golfer
By WILLIAM T. RIVES

HOUSTON, Tex, Feb. 1S.-(PE
Par Knocked the boldest efforts of
COLTS great names today, and when
the Western Open field had trudged
around the sodden wlnd.whlpped
River Oaks course, not a player had
touched it.
Five men jumped the top spot but
the best they could report was a
meek Y, one stroke over perfect
figures for the tournaments first
round.
The leaders were smiling Jimmy
Demaret, young Houston profession
al; Bud Williamson of Fort Wayne,
Ind; Craig Wood Of Winged Foot, N.
Y; Clayton Heather of Linville, N.
&C., and burly Harry Todd, Dallas
holder of the Western Amateur
title.
To these men went the tribute
that they overcame in workmanlike
fashion weather obstacles which
sent scores of others sky-high.
Chilling winds and the heavy course
were too much for the bulk of the
entry list, and the high 70's were
dotted with the names of men who
normally shatter par.
The sun burst through in the
afternoon and warmed the layout
somewhat but disappeared again
after a couple of hours.
So bitter was the going that only
one ~man-slight Tong Longo of
Inwood, Ill.-was able to better par
on either nine. Longo swept through
the front side one under par with
a "a, but his game curdled on the
second nine and finished with 40
for a "a, which left him in a tie
with seven other men for second
place.
Demaret came in shortly before
dark to tie the other leaders. He
was putting like a magician.
Byron Nelson, national open cham
pion and defender of the western
title, putted miserably to turn in a
4O-38-7S for the par 35-36-71 links.
Cutting the second spot with 74's
were e. J. Harrison of Little Rock,
Ark, Marty Furgo of Sharon, N.
Y; Harold McSpaden of Winches'
ter, Mass; Bud Oakley of Mamaro'
neck, N. Y; John Barnum, Hous.
