Working three rounds each, Borowy, Stanceu and Washburn shut out Cincinnati with two smacks both off Stanceu, generally regar- ded as the most formidable of the lot. Lindell and Borowy whitewashed Kansas City with five hits. The Yanks shut out the Blues on another occasion and handed the Brooklyns the same dose.

Watertown, April - Joseph R Neil will be the only and principa speaker on the big Sports Nites program which the Watertown Fish and Game Association will stage af Watertown High school gym on Thursday night. Mir. Nell will ex- plain the plans which the orgAniza- tion has laid out for the building Of It's new quarters which will be made possible by the proceeds from the affair. Due to it's increase in rnerfi- bership and marked increase in It's activities, 1t was decided to search for ways and means of erecting e building. The Sports Mite" event is expected to add handsomely to the fund.
 Friends of the Fish and Game As- sociation including men, women and children will find a full evenings entertainment at the high school Thursday night. The program calls for movies including several of the famous Grantland Rice Sportlights, and also movies of Yale football. Musical and vocal entertainment will also be featured, while refresh. ments will be served by the associa- ton members.
 President Al Travers and his gen. eral Sports Mite" committee in. cluding Publicity Director Benny Marcoux and General Chairman Earl Couch are unanimous in their opinion that the affair will far sur- pass any social event yet sponsored by the club.

 This Is an astonishing statement by Mccarthy, especially after the ultra conservative manager saw much of the St. Louis Cardinals re- markable collection headed by Spud Krist, Ernie White and Johnny Grodzicki.
 But Mccarthy is positive he never had such a turnout before and in- sists each of the 10 in Yankee liv- cry has the stuff with which to be- come a great pitcher.
 Seven have come close to being brilliant in spring games-C Charley stanceu and Johnny Lindell, up from Kansas City, and George Washburn, Hank Borowy, George Barley, Steve Peek and Norman Branch, graduates of the Newark farm-right handlers all.
