Barons Tonight Seek
First Title Set Win
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, April 8.-Cleve-
lands besieged Barons strive for a
finger-hold on the American Hockey
League championship finals tonight
when they clash with the Buffalo
Bisons in the third game of the
four out f-seven series at the
arena.
The fast-skating Bisons copied
the first two tussles in easy fashion.
Their 1872 rout of the Barons at
Buffalo Thursday night set new
playoff scoring record and was the
worst defeat ever handed a Cleve-
land team in IS years of professional
hockey.
The Barons proved superior to
Buffalo during the regular season,
winning seven, losing three and
tying two, but have undergone a
complete form reversal In the play
offs.
The fourth game will be played at
Buffalo tomorrow and a fifth, if
necessary, will be staged here next
Wednesday. American League Of
ficials have made no decision as to
the time and place of the sixth and
seventh games, apparently delaying
action to determine whether Cleve-
land can extend the series.

Nicholson May Spurn
Cubs $16,500for
.Draft-Free Farm
By the Associated Press.

FRENCH LICK, Ind, April g.
Bill Nicholson, who led the National
League last year with 20 homers and
1913 runs batted in, still doesn't know
which lettuce he wants-the kind he
grows on his farm or the kind the
Chicago Cubs are willing to unfold
to keep him in baseball.
Although Jim Gallagher, the Cubs
vice president, roared into French
Lick for pow-wow with his star
outfielder, Nick's status after two
days in spring camp still remains
vague.
Gallagher says Nicholson has
agreed to terms. But on the other
hand, Nick is threatening to return
to his 1,000-acre farm at Chester
town, Md, any day now and will not
admit that he has signed 1914 Cub
pact.
On the basis Of his power at the
plate last season, Nicholson was
reported to have asked for a modest
$17,500 to play ball with the Cubs
thlS year only to discover that
Gallagher had anchored himself to
a $16,50O offer.
Nicholson appears willing to shrug
of the label as the Cubs highest
paid athlete in favor of being known
as a farmer. BY returning to
Maryland he will keep a deferred
draft rating because of his agricul-
tural work.
eff I stay in baseball my draft
board said I should drop them a
card and I would be put in Ia
Then I would be called in May
which means if I passed the physi-
cal 1 probably would go in June
That would give me only six weeks
of baseball, and there's no per-
centage in that"
Nicholson went with the Cubs to
George Field, Ind, today for a
scheduled game with the Chicago
White Sox. Gallagher remained in
French Lick.

CHICAGO, April 8. - Chicago
Blackhawk fans had better hold
their fire tomorrow night lest the

That was the gist of the blunt
warning issued yesterday by Mervyn
"Red" Dutton, president of the Ma

math to the MISSILE throwing cpl
sode Thursday which caused a 90
minute delay in the second game of
the championship series.
Montreal won, 81, to take lead
of two games to none in the best-of-
seven series for possession of the
cup, emblematic Of hockey suprem-
acy.
Referring to the barrage of news
papers, confetti, programs, coins
and other articles - including a

ans compact-Dutton said he had
been empowered by the league
Board of Governors ito forfeit any
future game to the visiting club il

He added: II definitely intend to

The display of spectator resent

the most prolonged exhibition of Its
kind ever seen at Chicago Stadium
hockey match, came when the
Hawks protested the third goa
scoral by Maurice Richard, Mont
real right wing, late in the final pc
Rod. The Hawks argued that Clint
Smith, Hawk center, was held or

center, and therefore the score
should not count.
Referee Bill Chadwick didn't SEE
it that way, the goal was allowed
and the Canadiens were in front

Raised as a Crooner,

MIAMI, Fla, April 8.-Jockey
Bobby Permane's parents raised
their boy to be crooner
The curly-haired apprentice who
set record by riding five winners
at Tropical Park yesterday for the
second consecutive day, comes from
a theatrical family and spent his
boyhood behind the footlights.
1t was a blow to his mother, Mrs.
Charles W. Fairbanks, when he
turned to riding horses, but she de-
cided today that the boy had done
all right in his new profession.
Hes really getting top billing"
she declared.
Parents Were in Vaudeville.
Bobby's parents were in vaudeville
when he was born, between engage
ments. at Camden, N. j., 20 years
ago. He slipped naturally into a
career as an entertainer and sang
on the radio and toured America
and Australia with a song and
monologue skit.
His father, who did a concer
and comic trapeze act, died six years
ago and his mother now is married
to an Army Air Forces sergeant on
duty in the South Pacific.
When Bobby put on silks at Gar
den State Park last August he didn't
say much about his theatrical past,
but he wasn't disconnected when 1t
became general knowledge during
the Tropical season and the other
jockeys began calling him the Sin
atra of the turf"
That's not for me-" Bobby grim
ned. "All that fellow has that
want is his weight"

The youngster did well at Hialeah
but did not round into top form I'M
| til the Tropical Park season was
well advanced. He began a sensa-
tional sprint that has given him Is
f1rsts in 20 days, 10 in the last three.
He was up on his first winner last
August 81 and keeps his 5-pound
apprentice allowance for q year
from that date.

NEW YORK, April 3.-Baseball
players are VIGOROUSLY superstitious.
Most of them shy away from wear
ing No. 49, To the few who don't,
add the name of Rookie Pitcher
Tom Warren of the Brooklyn
Dodgers.
Warren, a 23-year-old Tulsa war
veteran of Casablanca, apparently
thinks that what was good enough
for Kirby Higbe is good enough for
him. Higbe, star Dodger right
handler now in the Army, was one
of the minority who wore No. 10.
Warren succeeded him as No. 13
and demonstrated yesterday that
the supposed hoodoo number holds
no terror for him.
Pitching five innings of shutout
ball against the Montrea. Interna-
tionals at Bear Mountain, N. Y,
Warren yielded only three hits and
won the game with a mighty two
run triple in the second inning.
Warren issued two bases on balls
and struck out three in becoming
the first Brooklyn twirler to go more
than three innings. If he keeps up
such good work after the season
opens he will become a Flatbush
idol in no time.
