that Duluth has 2,173 more males than

the male. In 16 cities of this class the

BIoodworth's Injury Brings
Revelation of Secret MARRIAGE
Wed in February
To Childhood
Sweetheart

Jimmy Bloodworth, injured sec
end baseman of the Nationals, an
nounced officially today his mar
rage to Miss Maurice Norred of
Appalachicola, Fla, and promptly
crossed his fingers against possible
scolding from President Clark Grit
fifth.
Struck on the head by pitched
ball during yesterdays exhibition
game against the Baltimore Orioles
and forced to give up his post in to-
days opening game against the
Yankees, Bloodworth dazedly begged
attendants at Union Memorial Hos
pital in Baltimore not to tell his
wife.
ST didn't mean to let the cat out of
the bag" Bloodworth said today fol-
lowing his release from the hospital,
"but I was in a daze and didn't
want her to hear that had been
hurt"
He disclosed that he was married
February IA in Appalachicola. Il
kept it a secret" Bloodworth ex-
planned, because I know that Mr..
Griffith doesn't like his ball players
to get married just before or during
The season. We were married shortly
before I left for training camp in
Orlando"
The former Miss Norred is
childhood sweetheart of the young
infielder whose brilliant play this
spring won him the call over the
veteran Buddy Myer.

u. S. Is Urged to Buy
Benning Abottoir Site

A bill authorizing purchase by the
Federal Government of a l7-acre
site in Benning, D. c., formerly used
as a stock yard and abattoir, was
introduced late today by Represen-
tative Boykin, Democrat, of Ala
bama, a member of the House Com
mittee on Public Buildings and
Grounds. The limit of cost is fixed
at $500,000.
Mr.. Boykin said he believes the
property could be used either as a
public park site or as site for a
Few Government building.
The site was the target of bitter
controversy some years ago when
the Adolph Gobel Packing Co. ac-
ouired the property and made plans
to rebuild an abandoned meat pack
ing plant that had once f1ourished
there. Secretary of Interior Ickes
led a fight that ultimately led to
abandonment of these plans.

this afternoon on his way to the
opening ball game, greeted a record
crowd of 53,25s cheering egg rollers
who had been enjoying the annual
Easter Monday festival on the lawn
since early morning.

dent, ito welcome you all on another
of these occasions which have made
Easter Monday quite an event in
the Nations Capital.
"This year Easter Monday and
egg rolling comedies with the Bios
som Festival known all over the Ma
ton. I wish I could be down on
the lawn with you and hope you
all have a good time"
Noting the predominance of adults
In the crowd, President Roosevelt
commented:
'I am glad to see so many young
people here, but I am not at all
sure that the grown-ups don't en-
joy it just as much as the children. +"
Cheers followed the President as
he waved and left for the park.
Attendance May Set Record.
A frail grandmother collapsed just
inside the ropes a few minutes be-
fore the Chief Executive came out
on the portico. She was carried to
a bench under the portico archway
by Red Cross workers and White
House police. Her two granddaugh-
ters burst into tears, but returned to
gaze admiringly at the President
when Red Cross spirits Of ammonia

arched high and slowly descended
into a clawing, scrambling mass of
white-uniformed players, President
Roosevelt officially opened the major
league baseball season today.
More than $4,000 spectators, many
sitting in shirt sleeves, jammed Crit
fifth Stadium to watch the Chief
Executive throw out the first ball.

Rookie Pitcher Arnold (Red) Ander-
son, who rejoined the Washington
club only this morning after at
tending the funeral of his father in
James, Iowa.
1t was the highest throw the big
right-hander ever made The ball
went up like a weak pop fly and so
many players had an opportunity to
get within reaching distance that it
was fully a minute and a half be-
fore Anderson could get his face
out or the cipders in front of the
dugout and hold the prize aloft.

Youthful "racketeers" who sell"
themselves to adults needing a child
companion to be admitted did a
rushing business despite good-hu-
mored attempts of police to curb
them.
