CARDINAL STARS
BACK IN SHAPE
All Who Were On Injured
List Now Ready For
1912 Campaign

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 8.-tRAOptinis-
tic reports received by the St..
Louis Cardinals from their many
1941 casualties are putting teeth
in the clubs official slogan:
cts in the Cards for '42.''
The hospital slate which showed
the club lost 283 player days of
service during a protracted siege
of injuries last season has been
wiped clean by word from Center
fielder Terry Moore that he feels
fine and is ready to begin his
eighth major league campaign.
Moore, who suffered a serious
brain conclusion when struck on
the head by a pitched ball, has
been resting through the winter at
his new home near Augusta, Ga.
He returned to the lineup spas
medically after his late August in
jury but never regained his true
form.
Outfielder Enos Slaughter, shelv-
ed at the height of the Cards
bitter pennant fight with the Dod-
gere, says his fractured collar bone
has healed completely. He has
been going through gym workouts
three times a week, A right-handed
thrower, Enos was fortunate that
his injury was on the left hand.
Mort Cooper, ace right-hander
who underwent an operation on
his pitching arm in mid-season and
came back to resume his winning
form, is all set to go.
So is his brother and battery
mate, Catcher Walker Cooper who
was out 56 days from a broken
shoulder blade.
Another important cog in the
Cardinal machine, Infielder jim
my Brown, suffered a broken nose.
But he, too, is preparing for the
start of the spring training season
by serving as an instructor in a
baseball school at Orlando, Fla.
Only lanky Shortstop Martin
Marion played every game and
even he didn't escape entirely the
injury jinx which many experts
believe cost the Cardinals the pen
nant. Marion made his record de-
spite fractured index finger on
his throwing hand.
So word from the front office
today was that it would be a squad

SHOOTS SUB-PAR
OF 276 TO CLOSE
OUT FAR AHEAD
Newcomer To Major Links
Triumph Has Been Trav-
cling Circuit 13 Years

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. s. Up -
Pushing COLTS more renowned stars
into the background, Herman Bar
ron of White Plains, N. Y, cap
tured the 42nd edition of the West
ern Open championship today with
a 72-hole card of 276 - eight blows
under par for the Phoenix Country
club course.
This newcomer to major links IL
umph, 32-year-old native New
Yorker, has been travelling the
money circuit for 13 years with
never a first place. In winning to-
day, he turned back the challenge
of the nations greatest shotmakers
with rounds of 69-69-71-6l.
Barron was four shots back of
pace setter Herman Keiser going
into today's 36-hole fi.-als. Then
three behind the leaders at the "a
hole stage, he blasted out nine holes
scors OIL 32-35 for the par 36-35-71
layout this afternoon to win goins
away.
Picard, former Masters and P. G.
A. kingpin, salvaged some of the
star-contingent's reputation when he
shot rounds of 6972 for 27S, two
strokes behind Barron.
With Z. j. (Dutch) Harrison OF
Chicago finishing third, such ex
champions of this Western Open as
Byron Nelson, Jimmy Demaret and
Ed Dudley traiIed in behind, leaving
dark-h horse Keiser in control of
fourth place and Lawson Little in
fifth.
Little had hoped to win the tourna-
ment as sixth wedding anniver-
sary present for his wife, just as
he did year ago il. the Texas Open
at San Antonio, but after a spark
ling 50 this morning the former Ma
tional Open and amateur ruler slip
ped to a 73 on the afternoon round
for 1S1.
Nelson garnered a 285, and De-
maret and the pre-tournament fav-
orite, wee Benny Hogan, finished
with 28S.
Victory to Barron, was worth ST.
600. Pocard won $500, Harrison
$500, Keiser $400 and Little $3.50.

tains. Hogan, incidentally, recently
passed a screen test and probably
will sign to make pictures after
the winter tour.
With the U.S.G.A. calling off
its tournaments, the p. G. A.
championship will be the only
so-called major title at stake
this year, and that will be with
out defending champion as
Ghezzi is in the armed service
and undoubtedly will be un-
able to compete.
The P. G. A. Tournament, is the
only major title at stake in the
accepted sense, that is, which
brings us to the communique from
Augusta, where the masters will
be held April 9-12.
There, my friends, is tourna-
ment. We had not realized what
super-championship affair that is
until we started persuing the en-
try list and taking note of the en-
trance requirements. It is safe to
say that anyone who might have
a chance of winning meets one or
more of the 13 qualifying require
ments, and that makes it as open
to real contenders as any tourna-
ment, including the National open.
To give an ides of the class of
the field it includes champions of
every National tournament here
and in England, the first 80 fin
ishers in the 1941 masters, the first
80 in the National open, the last
eight in the National amateur and
the last eight in the P. G. A. if
your favorite player isn't in that
bunch he shouldn't be your IA
vorite player.
Eighty-four players are eligible
this year, although the field will
be around so due to the fact that
some of the older champions no
longer are competing, and some,
such as Bud Ward, amateur cham
pion and Ghezzi, are in the serv-
ice.
This may seem like blowing the
bugle for a private enterprise, but
when a package has "class" writ
ten all over it there's no harm
in looking inside to see just why
it deserves the label. 2

-tRAThe next move in the an

tne Yankees and Joe DiMaggio
is up to Ed Barrow, club president,
DlMaggio said today upon his ar
riva. here for three weeks OF fish
ing and loafing."
DiMaggio said he had talked with
Barrow by telephone after recelv-
ing his original contract and had
informed him that he was coming
here. ''Now it's up to him." said
Joe.
Asked if he intended reporting
for spring training March l with
other Yankee fielders DiMaggio
said that future negotiations with
Barrow would decide that.
II don't know how soon we'll get
he replied.
The slugging bomber said he ex-
pected to fish and take it easy"
until spring training started. Mrs.
DiMaggio and his infant son are
to join him this week.
AS for night baseball, Joe said:
'It's not like day ball but I
don't think it'll make a lot of diff
ference. The pitchers are going to
like it because batters have more
trouble judging the speed of
thrown ball at night. But the lights
are SO good nowadays that infield-
ers and outfielders shouldn't have
any trouble"
Joe's record-smashing 56-game
hitting streak was snapped in
night game at Cleveland last sum-
mer but he said the fact that it
was a night game had nothing to
do with it.
''We played in other night games
during the time 1 was hitting and
it didn't make any difference.

coveted chance to regain the pres
tige he lost by recent defeat when
he encounters rough, tough Dick
Lever in the headliner of Promoter
V. Bert Causey's crack wrestling
bill at Thalian hall this coming
Friday night.
Last January 80 the popular
Tourist was beaten in a rather sur
prising upset by big Ed (Strsngler)
White, former college and pro foot
ball star who was trained for the
mat by the once great Stranger
Lewis. The defeat was blow to
Abie's pride, rangled in his soul.
He sought return bout with White
for the following week, but Pro-
moter Causey had other plans.
Tourist kept on plugging for the
chance to meet White again and

finally induced Causey to rematch
him with White. Causey agreed to
this return bout provided Able takes
rugged Dick Lever in the feature
of Friday nights mat bill. The
wiley Causey had already planned
to rematch Tourist with White, but
figured he would get one more rous-
ing effort out of Tourist before the
return bout.
Dick Lever is a big strong fellow.
however, and may upset the plans.
The best laid plans of mice and
wrestling promoters sometimes go

have to build himself up again.

bout. Clements is a newcomer to
