SIGNS CONTRACT WITH
 5ICk'S BANNERS

A recent Sunday sport page of the Seattle Times carries three column picture of Juneau's Joe McNamee, former Channel baseball batting champ, signing contract with the Seattle Rainiers.
 McNamee, who batted 378 for the Twin Falls, Idaho, squad last year, catching and playing the outfield, held out on his contract with Seattle for several weeks and finally signed March 30.
 He will go to the strong Spokane squad of the Western Internation- al League on option, and if he continues to bat as strongly as before, it is likely he will step into regular Rainier lineup.
 Three seasons ago in Juneau, McNamee burned the league up with batting.

By DILLON GRAHAM

1 Sports Editor, AP Feature Service
 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, April 1O.-Marse Joe Mccarthy is the only manager in baseball who isn't get ting a few new grey hairs this spring worrying about his rockies.
 Joe doesn't have to fret and frown and wonder about the recruits be- cause he doesn't have to take a gamble on any of them. There just aren't any jobs to be filled on the all-star New York Yankee Club that Mccarthy has led to four success sive world championships.
 Only a couple of miles from the Yankee park, on the training field of the St. Louis Cardinals, Ray Blades is breeding over an infield puzzle that has him daffy. He has no less than five rockies battling for the shotstop position alone.
 A few miles away in Tampa are the Cincinnati Reds. They are the National League champions but Skipper Bill Mckechnie still has his rookie problems. He's shifting sev- eral kids in and out of left field to find one who suits.
 That's the situation at every other camp in Florida. But Marse Joe just ambles serenely around, chew ing his gum.
 Could He Want More?
 With DiMaggio, Keller and Sel- kirk in the outfield, Dahlgren, Cor don, Crosetti and Rolfe in the in- field and Bill Dickey behind the bat Boss Joe just can't work up worry.
 Mccarthy brought nine rockies to camp. They're all good looking prospects, stars from the Interna- tional league and the American As sociation. but it is doubtful if any will be kept after the squad is kept to 25 men in May. Most of them are of major league caliber and could find jobs on other clubs, but they'll probably wind up at the Yankee farm clubs, Newark and Kansas City.
 Mccarthy figures to carry five outfielders, five infielders, three catchers and eleven pitchers With Tom Heinrich able to play first base as well as the outfield and with Bill Knickerbocker capable of handling any of the other infield positions, Mccarthy can get along with only the one utility player, Knickerbock- CT. Lou Blair from Newark just can't oust Knickerbocker and John Sturm from Kansas City can't budge Babe Dahlgren at first base. Bill Matheson from Kansas City and Mike Chartak from Newark are good ! flychasers but it appears that Me- Carthy is content to string along with the veteran Jake Powell as his reserve fielder.
 Pitchers Will Do Although the Yankee pitching sort of bent in spots last year-Lefty Gomez was off form, Fireman John Murphy wasn't as effective as usual and Red Ruffing wound up with a sore arm-McCarthy probably will go along with the same gang. But one of a trio of Kansas City twirl- ing aces might possibly be kept. They are Ernest Bonham, who won 10 and lost g; Marvin Breuer, with IT and A. Bruer looks best. George Washburn from Newark and Charles Stanceu from Binghamton rate be- hind the other trio.
 The only real newcomer on the squad likely will be Lee Grissom, the lang left-hander obtained from Cincinnati for Joe Beggs.

GERS THEIR FIRST VIC
TORY
CspecIaI to The CItIxen)

NEW YORK, April 19.-Old
Man Weather again interferred
with the major league baseball
schedule in its determination to
get off to good running start
in the new season, and, as a re-
suit, only three games were play
ed-tWo in the Junior circuit and
one in the senior.
At Cincinnati, the Chicago
Cubs again suffered defeat at the
hands of the National League
champions, by repeat score of
2 to 1. Five-hit pitching by
Gene Thompson outshone all 9TH
er features of the game. Rookie
Mike Mccormick and Billy My
ers aided their teammate with
two successive doubles with
man on board in the eighth in
ming to sew up the game.
In the American Eegaue, the
Detroit Tigers took their first
game of the season in home
contest with st. Louis Browns, 4
to 2. Home runs by Hank Green
berg and Charley Gehringer pro-
vided the winning margin for the
victors. Both teams secured sew
en- hits, but the long-distance
swats were too much for the
Browns. ....
At Washington, the Boston Red
Sox again blanked the Senators,
this time behind the five-hit
pitching performance of Jim Bag
by. Score: 7 to 0.
