Matthews Seeks Kayo
In kap|an Bout I Tonight
BY the Asseeiaisd Press

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2s.-If
Harry Matthews of Seattle is as
good as his manager says, he'll
knock out George Kaplan OF
Brooklyn in an early round to-
night.
The match is scheduled for 10
rounds.
Matthews is cunning for a
heavyweight fight with Rocky
Marciano. He hasn't lost fight
since he was stopped in five
rounds here in 1943. He was a
middleweight then.
Since John Cornelius Hurley
began managing his affairs in
1949, Matthews has won 80
straight, 81 by knockouts.
Two fighters went the distance
with Harry the Kid last year. One
was Danny Nardico, who defeated
Kaplan twice in 1851, the second
time by knockout.

A couple of bosom buddies, Art
Houtteman and Ted Gray, have
put the Detroit Tigers back on
the right track. They're still on
the fringe Of last place in the
American League today, but the
good folks of Detroit don't expect
them to hover in that vicinity
long.
The Detroit clubs resurgence be-
gan behind closed doors in the
visitors dressing room at Chicago's
ComiSkey Park last Wednesday
The Tigers, smarting from eight
straight defeats, were reported to
be at odds with Manager Red
Rolfe and on the verge of mutiny
Fred Hutchinson, veteran pitcher
and player representative, called
the team members together for
a conference and chased Rolfe out
of the room. The result was a
rousing vote of confidence for the
skipper.
Meant What They Said.
Houtteman and Gray have dem
onstrated emphatically that the
Tigers meant what they said.
Hard Luck Art launched the
comeback drive Saturday with a
spectacular 1870, one-hit victory
Iover the Cleveland Indians. Gray
followed his roommate's gem with
"a 10, six-hit triumph over the
same tough team yesterday.
Ironically, Cleveland's Harry
Simpson was the villain" and
goat" in the two games. First.
he spoiled Houtteman's bid for a
no-hitter when he singled with
two out in the ninth inning. Yes
terday, a first-inning error by
Simpson led to the only run of
the game.
Pat Mullin had singled with two
out in the first inning against
Mike Garcia. Vic Wertz followed
with a drive to center. Simpson
tried to take it on a short bounce
in order to cut down Mullin at
third, but the ball slipped behind
him and the Detroit outfielder
scored.
The victories were doubly sweet
for the Tigers. Last year the In
dians captured II out of % games
from Detroit. This season Cleve-
land won its first four games with
the Tigers.
AS Take Over Cellar.
Gray's fine effort enabled the
Tigers to vacate last place in favor
of the Philadelphia Athletics by
IS percentage points.
Rain curtailed activity in both
leagues. In the American League,
rain washed out a double header
between the Athletics and Boston
Red Sox and a single game be-
tween New York and Washington.

Field of 10 Likely.
And for others it will give them

run in Americas most famous

The Trial is expected to draw
a field of 10 or so, including at
least. three, and possibly five, of
the Derby candidates most talked
about at the Downs.
Hill Gail. pride of the Calumet
Farm, heads the list. Should the
fleet son of Bull Lea show to ad-
vantage in the Trial, he'll prob
ably go to the post in the Derby

Hill Gail comes from a stable
that has won the Derby four times.
The colt is trained by Missouri
Ben Jones and will be ridden by
that master jockey, Eddie Arcaro.
Among the more highly rated
Derby candidates who are ex-
pected to oppose the Calumet

Alfred G. Vanderbilt and Sub
