BALL TITLE AT STAKE
THURSDAY AFTERNOON
TEAMS POINTING
FOR HARD BATTLE

Eagerness for the fray and
anticipation of a champion
ship surrounded CaleXico and
Ell Centre high school base
ball teams Tuesday as they
pointed for the all-important title
game in Ell Centre Thursday after
noon.
The Bulldogs from Calexico and
the Spartans from FL Centre are
in a deadlock at the top of valley
league standings, each having won
four games and dropped one.
Smothered in their first game
with the Spartans. 1876, when their
ace hurler. Ralph Samaha. was
touched for II hits, the Bulldogs
have vowed not to let disaster touch
them again.
SPIRIT UP
Equally determined to repeat their
performance the Spartans have
worked spirit up to a keen edge
and feel that they have the hitting
power to again set down the border
boys.
The Bulldogs seem to have been
plagued with lack of hitting power
in their early season games but
things apparently have changed for
in the game against Brawley last
week, 19 hits were collected off
the slants of Wildcats Ray Minter
and Joe webster.
The Brawley team was the only
team that has been able to mar
the record of the Spartans. The Ell
Centre lads fell, go, in their only
loss.
Monday afternoon the Spartans
easily outhit pickup crew headed
by former Spartan Pitcher Bill Pat
terson. Stan Mitosinka, regular
Spartan left fielder, and Regular
Chucker Jerry Womack limited Pat
terson's team to four runs while
Coach Lou Birnbaum'S boys marked
eight tallies. Pete Hernandez started
the game on the mound for Pat
terson's nine and Manuel Ortiz,
prizefighter- ball player, finished.
Appearing for the first time in
the Ell Centro lineup at third base
Monday was Eddie Alarcon, vino
has been out for track all season.
He held down the hot corner very
we'll for three innings and impress
ed Birnbaum SO much that the
Spartan coach may use him against
Calexico.

PLAYOFF VICTORY
NOT IN CARDS
FOR BEN HOGAN

AUGUSTA, Ga. April l4-(UP)-
Ben Hogan said today that it's just
not in the cards for him to beat
Byron Nelson in playoff.
The great golfing pair who grew
I'D together as caddies at the Glen
Garden country club in Fort Worth,
have met three times in playoffs
and on each occasion Nelson. one
of the great iron players OF all
time, has won by single stroke.
That was Lord Byron's margin
Yesterday when he won his second
Masters golf tournament and pock-
eted the $500 first prize money by
touring the long, difficult Augusta
National course in three under par
50 to edge Hogan, who carded 70,
by a stroke They had finished the
regulation 70 holes Sunday tied at
e80.
They met in a playoff first fer
the caddy championship at the Glen
Garden club Is years ago. Two
years ago Nelson again defeated
Hogan by a stroke in a playoff for
the IeXaS open championship.
Nelson's last victory in the Mas
ters can be attributed to his SUI
perb use of ircns.
After the first hole, which he
bobbled with a two over par six
Nelson laid his approaches dead on
the pin time and again and if his
putting had been little better, he
could have carded a SO or "a. His
puts weren't dropping and that
kept the match close.
Hogan carded four brides in five
holes On the back nine but Lest his
chance when he went over par at
the short 10th.
Nelson's $500 first prize gave him
total earnings for the year of $5822
Hogan got $500 to continue as the
leading money winner with a total
of S9598.

CHICAGO, April IA. CUP)-Tht
major leagues may revise plans fol
their 1912 all-star baseball games
and match an National
league squad against a team of
diamond stars now in military SER
vice, it was reported today.
Baseball Commissioner Kenesaw
M. Lands admitted there was agita-
ton for altering the all-star game
set-up.
Il have hopper full of sugges-
tionS on what should be done about
the game" Lands said. They've
been pouring into my office daily,
but l don't pretend to know what
action will be taken"
Lands is going to New York to
participate in the world champion
ship flag raising ceremonies Friday
at Yankee stadium. He will confer
with Presidents William Harridge
of the American league and Ford
Frick of the National league about
the all-star contests.
Although recommendation of this
powerful three man committee
probably would be accepted by the
major league club owners, it may
be necessary, Lands said, to call
special league meetings to approve
any changes.
One proposal for the all-star
games, scheduled for July 6-7,
would pit a combined American
National league team against an
outfit of former major league stars
now in the armed services.

players, headed by such standout
performers as Bob Feller of Cleve-

WARDEN REPORTS
GAME OUTLOOK

State Game Warcsen Leo RoSSler
Tuesday reported on the hunting
and fishing outlook for 1912 and
warned violatorS of the fish and
game laws that restrictions Will be
more rigidly enforced.
Fishing in the All-American ca
nal, which is permitted if not too
near certain strategic power drops
or certain other places, and in val
ley canals has been very good lately,
said RoSSler
Fish are biting we'll with a good
number of bass, catfish, perch and
sunfish being taken. OF course there
are the usual number of code vio-
lators but they will be dealt with
shortly, said RoSS.er.
SET LINES FORBID
Henceforth the laws forbidding
the use of set lines, will be
enforced, the official warned. OF
tenders will be liable to the mini
mum fine of $1,000 if convicted
Continuing, Rossier reiterated
that a California fishing license is
necessary for perch, crappie, sunfish
ard bass taken from valley waters.
Angling on the Colorado river has
also been excellent recently. Many
valley residents have been making
the trip and have reported good re-
suits, especially north of Imperial
dam.
ANTELOPE HUNTING
Swinging away from fishing, Ros-
sier revealed that for the first time
in so years in California antelope
may be hunted this year.
In a certain portion of LasSen
county 500 hunters will be allowed
to try their luck at bagging the willy
animal.
First application must be made at
the fish and game office, $40 Cali

From the applications, half a
thousand numbers will be drawn
and hunters having the correspond
ing numbers will be allowed to try
their luck. A 1941-42 hunting Ii
cense will be required, Rossier said
The season on the male antelope
only is from MAJ 90 to June IA
