Odds Shift as
Nova Decides TO
Slug With Baer

NEW YORK, April CUP)-As
dawn broke over Manhattan's caul-
iflower canyon today. two sensitive
souls were at variance over the
question: to slug or not to slug?

parties involved were Manager Ray

will lead to Baer's ultimate and
certain downfall"
This rift over the proper means
Of mayhem became public property

AUGUSTA, Ga, April = (UF)-
A general search, complete with
bloodhounds. deputy sheriffs and a
fellow with a peach switch divining
rod was being made today for the
swamp fevered creature who made
up the pre-tounament odds on the
Masters invitation golf champion

The search had a tWo-way angle.
The fugitive is wanted on two
counts. Either he is crazy as a loon
with earache or he knows some
thing. The betting boys in these
parts want TO collar him and find
out Just where he belongs.
Is the odds man crazy when he
gives you Bobby Jones at 80 to l
in one line and then quotes Deland
j. Wilcox at 40 to in the next?
Can you imagine man taking De-
land j.. at 40 when he can get
Robert Tyre (plus Immortality at
so? Even if Bobby never had won
a tournament, was a complete un-
known, you would still take him
over a man named Deland j. Will
cox. I don't know Mr.. Wilcox. He
may have the smoothest swing in
the world, and be able to get down
in two from the back of a camel,
but I'm telling you this: no one
named Deland J. Wilcox is ever
going to win a major tournament.
The gods will see to that. They
know that no newspaperman, no
matter how great, could possibly
work that sort of a name into
dramatic, rhythmic, first paragraph.
Jones at 80 and Wilcox at 40 is
just one example of the working
of the official Augusta Masters

scoring system for the annual coun-
" track meet, scheduled in BraWley
on May 2.
Under the new system, which is
a return to the scoring used in val
ley schools up until four years ago,
varsity, Glass B and Class c diVi-
sions will be scored separately in
stead of together as has been the
practice during the past four years.
The total scoring system was or
iginally adopted by school officials
OF the valley league in order TO
place an equal emphasis on B and
c division track events instead Of
concentrating attention on the var
sity events.
Coaches used the very same argu-
ment to change the system back
to the old form, pointing out in

Dukes Optimistic

y
Jimmy Dykes, talkative manager
of the Chicago White Sox and cur
renely rated one of the most out
standing pilots in major league
baseball, lodged a foul ball during
hitting practice at Pasadena Tues
day and declared. This is poten-
tally the finest team I have had
since becoming manager of the Sox
in 1894"
For any other manager to make
that prediction it would mean alb
solutely nothing, but for the usually
cautious Dykes that prediction
might mean that the Chisox will be
battling for the pennant come Oct.
!.
Dykes refused to make a definite
prediction for his club and would
not pick any particular spot for his
club to finish. Just say Dykes
advised, that we'll be up there
giving the leaders a battle all OF
the way"
And the satisfied grin accompany
ing Dykes observation would lead
you to believe that ne has more up
his sleeve than shows at the cuff.
However, Jimmie flatly refused
TO admit as much.
IF l had to pick the best pen
nent bet, I'd make Cleveland my
choice with the Yankees as their
strongest opposition" resume d
Dykes. II think were right in there
with Detroit and Boston with the
definite possibility that physical
mishaps and the drafting of players
for military service may alter the
picture at any moment to the poin'
where any one of the Detroit-Bos-
ton Chicago trio could make SER
ious trouble for Cleveland and the
Yankees.
THE league in general will be
stronger right down the line. The
Browns were coming fast last sea-
son and are better this year. The
AS and Washington are also on the
upgrade. If the second division clubs
get tougher it will tighten the race
even more than it was last year"
improvement of the Sox over
last year lies in the solution OF
the second base problem, according
to Dykes. Also listed as aids are
greater reserve strength and better
pitching as well as the comeback
probability of Mike Kreevich, sturdy
centerfielder.
Dykes declared the White Sox lost
quite a few games az second base

PhiIlies' Only
Claim to Fame
Is Doc Prothro

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. April 2
CUP)-The most remarkable thing
about the Phillies is their portly
little manager Doc Prothro, a Mem
phis dentist who bustles around
with a cocky step and bubbles over
with talk of better days to come.
The Phillies have finished III
the cellar three years in a row.
They'll be last again this season
but you can't get Prothro to admit
it. Doc sees a silver lining in every
cloud.
No club in baseball has been
harder hit than the Phils, and no
club could less afford to suffer
any loss of strength. Kirby Higbe
was sold to the Dodgers for $780,
geo and three players. Hugh Null
cahy was caught in the army draft
Frank Hoerst, a big left-hander
who looked like the best of the
young pitchers, broke his ankle four
days before the Phils came to camp.
And now Outfielder Joe Marty has
received his QUESTIONABLE and may
go the way Of Mulcahy.
Before We lost Higbe and Null
cahy and everything else started
happening to u.s." Prothro said, Il
thought We might have a chance to
beat out the Giants and get up to
about sixth place. But losing our
two aces has given us quite a set
back.
We've got a fine bunch of pros
poets in camp, but they're not yet

Ell Centro and Holtvllle turned most
attention to varsity events and
planned to strengthen their varsity
teams for the county meet.
Change in the point system left
BraWley as the favorite in the var
sity and c divisions. El Centre the
favorite III the Glass B events.
Points scored by Holtviile and Doug
lass in the varsity division can
swing the meet either way, however
as both will score in key events.
Brawleys edge in the varsity
division lies in the fact John Will
liams is good for IS points and

the relay team. With a 20 point
