Hawks Hope 10 CIinch
Playoff Spot Tonight
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
After blowing q chance to do 1t
against the New York Rangers on
Sunday, the Chicago Blackhawks
hope tonight to assure themselves
of the fourth and last playof spot
in the Stanley Cup playof1s of the
National Hockey League.
They invade the Boston Gardens
to play the fifth-place Bruins. With
six-point lead over the Bruins, all
the Hawks need to clinch the play
off spot is tie. This may prove a
difficult task, since the Bruins are
on the upgrade since upsetting
Montreal on Sunday and must win
to keep alive their slim chance Of
beating out the Hawks.
The game will give Boston's Herbie
Cain an opportunity to set new
league scoring record of "a or more
points. He equaled the mark on
Sunday, but, with Lorne Carr of
Toronto and Chicago's Doug Bent
ley hot on his heels, he cannot rest
on his laurels.
Lach tops the assist column with
46, a new league record, with Smith
right behind at As, the old mark set
by Bill Cowley of Boston three years
ago.
Harold Jackson of Detroit leads
the penalty parade with 76 minutes

Cruicky Gets Another
Break in Ms. Open
BY the Associated Press.

PINEHURST, N. c., Mar. 14.-An
eligibility restriction helped tiny
Bobby Cruickshank of Richmond,
Va, win the North and South open
golf tournament last year, and an
other unusual factor is likely to aid
him in winning this years tourney
that opens today.
A year ago the tournament was
limited to military men and civilians
over 38, and with young low scorers
absent Bobby was able to whip the
field. This year the PGA is not
sponsoring the $4,000 tourney, and
some top stars, including twin ter
rors-Jug McSpaden and Byron
Nelson-are skipping it.
So with these sharpshooters
away, the veteran Scotsmans road
to victory will be easier. Perhaps
the chief competition will come from
golfing oldster, Gene Sarazen.
Gene has won about all the tourna-
ments worth winning in his long
career, but he's never been able to
pocket the North and South. He
thinks this may be his year.
Another quartet of likely contend
ers-Lt. Horton Smith, Clayton
Heafner, Leonard Dodson and
Johnny Kinder - begin the first
round today. Another l8 holes will
be played tomorrow, with So holes

Ortiz ia Choice Over
AguiIar Despite He
DisIikes Lefties
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Mar. 4-Manuel
Ortiz, undisputed champion of the
bantamweight boxing division, de-
tends his title tonight for the ninth
time. Challenger in the scheduled
15-round bout is Ernesto Aguilar
Of Mexico City.
Aguilar is q leftie and clever, but
he has no particularly damaging
punch. Southpaws bother Ortiz, the
gentleman farmer from CALIFORNIA; s
Imperial Valley. The boys who
throw punches from the portside
usually manage to go the distance
against him.
Nevertheless Tommy Farmers pro-
tege has been installed as a IA
favorite. probably because Manuel
has kayoed Tony Olivera and Joe
Robleto, both of whom went the
route against Aguilar.
Chief interest in tonight's scrap
is whether Aguilar, who has shown
ability to take punches, can survive
the terrific punishment Ortiz deals
to the body. Manuel is one of the
hardest hitters for his weight in the
history of boxing.
Ortiz's last fight was against Benny
Goldberg, the Detroit leftie who
hadn't lost decision as q profess
sional. Ortiz won an easy decision.
1t was his eighth title defense in II
months.
The Ell Centre, Calf, Mexican
was all set to branch into the
featherweight division. and engage
Phil Terranova until the NBA ruled
that II he did SO he'd have to vacate
the bantam championship. The
Terranova bout fell through, any
how, so Ortiz remains in the 49,
pound class.
Aguilar is managed by George
Parnassus, whose stable is cutting a
wide swath in boxing right now.
Parnassus also has the new NBA
lightweight champion, Juan Zurita,
and Enrique Bolanos, ex-Mexico
City bellhop, who is hot after the
featherweight crown Sal Bartolo
took from Tarranova.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Mar. IA.
Taking the place OF Bill Dickey
isn't the softest job a guy could
dream up for himself, but If the
greatest Yankee catcher of all time
is accepted for Army duty after
his physical exam tomorrow there
are three newcomers itching to try.
When they heard that Dickey
might go and Rollie Hemsley was
going to stay on his Vienna (Mo.)
farm, the Yankees decided to do a
little farming on their own and
hoed up three candidates on their
Kansas City and Newark planta-
tions. They're Joe Glenn, Bob Col
Inns and Mike Garbark, all of whom
got most of their training under
Yankee farm bosses George Weiss
and Paul Krichell.
Glenn and Collins Veterans.
Glenn and Collins have had big
league shots before, but it's the
first time up for Garbark, who
spent six years apprenticeship in
the Yankee farm system.
The name OF Glenn isn't exactly
new to New York customers, who
have a dim recollection OF him in
short takes from 1888 to 1888. The
veteran from the hard-coal mines
OF Dickson City, Pa, always has
been a scrappy fellow, with plenty
OF hustle and a strong right arm
that could heave line drives into
a barrel at second base.
Glenn performed with the Browns
and White Sox after he left New
York, spent two years in Louisville
and Oakland before he bobbed up
last year as first stringer at Kansas
City. He was under Manager john
ny Neun, who may have had more
than little to do with his sale to
New York yesterday. Neun became
one Of Joe McCarthy's three advisers
when Coach Earl Combs took a
