CAME TUESDAY;
GO WELL

Local high school baseballers got
away to a decidedly flying start"
one OF their best in recent years
as all three clubs, Crosby, Wildly
and Leavenworth, won opening
games Of the season by substantial
margins. Two of the games were
'runawayS" as LeavenWorth'S Tech
Tigers were twirled to a TO shutout
victory over Cheshire Academy Sat-
urday by George Lathrop who gave
the prep school lads but three hits
and sent IS Of them back to the
bench on strikes.
Through each club scored seven
safe singles, Crosby won 9 to /

urday, the opposing pitchers, Jack

famed II, but was helped consid-
erably by five Naugy miscues. Ma

Lathrop had a great day on the
mound for Leavenworth. For one
thing it was his teams first game Of
the season and his first full game as

twilrer most Of last season. After
giving but three hits into the ninth
inning, Lathrop famed six Of the

UmAteQ kTeSS starr correspondent
New York, April "A. UP)-Jim
Tobin of the Boston Braves, who
seldom pitches on windy days be-
cause it affects his tantalidng slow
ball, reached the front door Of the
hall Of fame yesterday only to have
it slammed in his face by Ford Null.
len of the Philadelphia Phillies who
robbed him OF a no-llit, no-Yun
game with a single.
Tobin, whose knuckle ball spe-
cialty Is considered the slow pitch
tossed by any major Lacquer, had
the Philly batters swinging until
they were doubled up yesterday, but
the best they could do was pop up
to infielders, drop easy grounderS,
and hoist toy flies to outfield. Behind
his efforts, the Braves punched
their hits and won their rst game
Of the season 5 to 0, but Southpaw
AL Gerheauser nullied their efforts
by tossing 3 to o Shutout victory
for the PhillieS In the second game
at Boston. Gerheauser held the Hub
hitters to six hits and struck out
nine. Both pitchers contributed to
the offensive efforts, Tobin driving
in a run with a single and scoring
two himself, while Gerheauser hit
two doubles, driving in one run.
Both factions of st. Louis fam
dom had further cause for elation
as the Cardinals and Brownies re-
NAMED atop their respective leagues
with double victories over the Cubs
and White Sox which kept them I'M
defeated for the season.
Easy Win
The Cards had hitfest in their
opener at Chicago, getting 10 base
blows In an II to victory behind
the pitching of Max Lanier, who
registered his second victory. Ray
Sanders led the offensive with three
doubles, while three Cub pitchers
shared the blame. The Cards had
harder time Of it in the second
game and needed George Kurowski's
sixth inning homer with two men
on base to pull a S to victory out
Of the fire. Harry Gumbert, who
started, didn't have much on the
ball and George Munger relieved
him in the second inning to get
credit for the victory. Eddie Hany-
zewSki for the Cubs was effective
in all but the sixth.
The hitting and pitching Of Jack
Kramer gave the Browns a 5 to 2
victory over the White Sox In the
opener at st. Louis He had shut
out going into the Eighth when an
error by First Baseman George Nc
Quinn paved the path for two Chi
cago runs. His homer In the second
with one on gave the Browns an
insurmountable lead.
In the second game, the Browns
had to come from behind in the
eighth to win to 3. Relief Pitcher
George Caster, whose earned run
average Of 2.13 per game was second
best in the majors last year. was
credited with the victory after re-
lieving Rookie Newman Shirley in
the eighth. Orval Grove off the Sox,
who gave up only five hits, was ef-
fective except in the late innings.

CLASH FOR MIA.
CROWN AT HUB
BY JACK FROST

UNITED Press STAFF Correspondent
Boston, April 24-(UP)-Slick Sal
Bartolo Of Boston makes his initial
defense of his MIA worlds feather
weight title at Boston Garden Frts
day against Phil Terranova Of New
York who will be making a despers
ate bid to regain the crown he lost
in a one-sided match here last
March 10.
The bout, which tops the national
f1stic picture, is scheduled to be run
over the 15-round route and the
advance sale indicates an attend
ance surprising the 1900 mark Of
their first meeting which crossed
$35,154.
Bartolo, flashy, swift jabbing
veteran who packs plenty Of power
when needed, is expected to turn
in his usual colorful fight. His
bad nights" are normally few and
far between and with bit Of in
Spiration he performs in a crowd
pleasing style.
Off Form?
Principal interest lies in the
activities Of Terranova. In losing
the crown slightly more than q
month ago, the little New Yorker
was the aggressor most of the night.
However, his style was awkward,
his punches were uncertain and he
failed to provide a successful de-
tense for the smart and furnishing
hooks and jabs with which Bartolo
peppered his head and face.
Despite his loss, Terranova made
definite hit with Boston fans who
liked his aggressive tactics. It is
said that In their current meeting
the former crown holder plans to
crowd Bartolo and seek to end the
battle with knockout.
Both Bartolo and Terranova ar
rived here today to complete their
training grinds. Each has been
working out for several weeks in
New York for the bout and plan to
complete the polishing process for
the benefit of Boston fans.
To date the betting has some
what favored the champion. But
oddS-makers predicted that by fight
time the wagering would be nearly
even money and might install Ter
ranova as a slight favorite.
