In Finals Tonight
BY the Associated Press

The all-conquering Montreal
Canadiens and the red-hot De-
troit Red Wings needed only one
victory apiece today to qualify
for the finals of the Stanley Cup
playoffs.
And both were favored to come
through tonight. If both win
tonight, Ken Mckenzie, league
publicity director, said the finals
would open in Montreal Satur-
day night.
The Canadiens take on the
New York Rangers in Montreal,
leading the series, 81, while the
Red Wings visit Toronto with a
80 bulge over the Maple Leafs.

Harry Boscoe, who is Wake
field Highs equivalent of the
famed and fictitious Kilroy, fin
ally has assumed an identity.
He throws baseballs at 90
miles per hour, if necessary:

much as 100 per cent, "bats"

serves tennis balls and costs
1925.
Harry made his first public
appearance last Friday. He spit
baseballs at Wakefield batters
for a couple hours at the rate OF
one every 10 seconds without
working up a good sweat. Ex-
cept for an obvious distaste for
old balls-which, for some rea-
son, he throws erratically-
Harry was a whopping success
and is almost assured OF earning
a baseball letter.
We're speaking Of a machine,
Of course, the Dudley Automatic
Pitching machine. A contraption
which does the work of a man
a herman at that's natural
to be tagged with a name. The
Wakefield baseball team picked
Harry Boscoe."
Officials at Arlington's newest
high school probably are relieved
that Harry has come out in the
open. Coach Mort Irwin relates
that the name first appeared
about a year ago. Someone
slipped him into the student To-
cater index.
One day, according to Irwin,
an enterprising individual got
his hands on a cut slip, wrote in
Marry Boscoe," the date and
class missed. "The dean of boys
spent considerable time trying
TO find him." Irwin says.
Anyway, this machine seems
to be a terrific addition to the
Warriors facilities. Friday.
throwing at about As miles per
hour, Harry faced IS batters in
one hour, each boy taking six
cuts. That's almost two times at
bat for each of Wakefield's 81
players.
Irwin says that last spring a
regular batting practice pitcher
was lucky to finish one round

and that was when the pitching

The thing is portable. You can
fold it up and put it in the
trunk of your car, not like
the overland joes" and iron
mikes" made by the same COM
pany and used by many major
league clubs.
The team members paid for
the machine, plus a 6-foot out
field fence and sideline fences,
with money raised by a New
Years Eve dance, bi-weekly
movies in the school auditorium
and bake sales. The improve
ments cost roughly $1,000, with
the fences the big items.
"The boys instigated the idea
last November. All I did was
sort of guide things" Irwin in
sists. Next year the object is
to raise money for dugouts.
This pitching machine ap-
parently is just beginning to
catch on. The nearest one to this
area, besides Wakesfield'S, is al
the University of North Caro-
lima. A high school in New Jer-
sey has one, too, according to
the Dudley people.

shortcoming, it is its accuracy

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Mar. q
.P.-The New Haven Blades
will take a 81 edge with them
to Clinton tomorrow night for
the fourth game of their best
of-seven series for the Eastern
Hockey League championship
The Blades moved in front last
night by scoring Al victory
here on the strength of a three
goal performance by WAN
Chasle, who hit twice in the
opening period and again in the
second session. The final New
Haven goal was scored by Claude
Boileau in the second period.

Trainer Awarded
$o5,500 DAMAGES
From Two Tracks

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 27 (R.-
John T. Engle, veteran racing
trainer, has been awarded $685.
500 damages from Hollywood
Park and Santa Anita racetracks
because he was barred from fol-
lowing his occupation at the two
tracks.
A jury returned the verdict
yesterday after five days of de-
liberation and nine weeks of
trial. 1t assessed 100000 against
Hollywood Park and $35,5OO
against Santa Anita.
During the trial Engle's law
yers brought out that after his
suspension for allegedly stimu-
lating two horses in the stable
OF Robert S. Howard, a private
detective employed by him OBJ
tanned a letter purporting to
show that Howard was aware of
unlawful tampering with his
horses prior to their being placed
in Engle's charge.
Engle testified that it was this
letter which brought about his
reinstatement.
Engle was suspended in 194S.
He denied stimulating the How
ard horses, but California law
holds a trainer responsible for
his charges. The suspension was
lifted after eight months.
Engle claimed that after his
reinstatement he was boycotted
at Hollywood Park and Santa
Anita although he was permitted
to race at all other California
tracks. Hollywood Park and
Santa Anita contended that En-
giles suspension had so shaken
public confidence that it would
have been detrimental to racing
to permit him to return.

Dick Buttery's talent at the
University of Nebraska seemed
to direct a cartoonist's career,
but he chose Government serv-
ice instead, for which members
of the Metropolitan Major Ten
pin League in particular and
tenpin bowlers in general are
thankful. Buttery's drawings
and quips give the game a dis
tinctive dash of spice.
1t was something new, at least
in the Washington area, when
Buttery turned his talent to de-
signs for bowling apparel, with
each bowler's outstanding char
acteristic cartooned, in embroi-
derry. on the back of his shirt.
He's produced some dillies and
his latest creation is one. No
body but a blind man could
ignore the shirts and socks now
worn by the Tops Drive-Inn
team of the Metropolitan Major
League. They are bright red.
But. instead of individual car
toons, the same drawing appears
on all shirts. This presents a
Fauntleroy boy pitching at 10
pins, but his weapon isn't a ball.
It's a sandwich. And each of
the pins is given a gaping NAV.
When the team chriStened its
uniform the other night, the
spectators were trif1e shocked.
The team apparently, was
greatly inspired.
Here's what happened: Bob
Wilson, with games of 238, pa
and 269. hung UP an all-time
District area record with a set
of ISL. The former mark was
736, established only a week be-
tore in the same league by
Frank Dunham of Bauserman's
Service. Bob Martini shot 247,
237 and 225 for 709, and it was
the first time, according to
Harvey Tressler, director of
Tenpins, Inc, that either Wilson
or Martini ever reached 700, a
charmed figure in tenpinS.

One sprint race never made a
Kentucky Derby winner, but
Head Man. from the Cornelius
v. Whitney stable, was getting a
closer look today after the roam
colts impressive 3-year-old debut
at Bowie yesterday.
Fresh from winter quarters in
Camden, S. c., Trainer Sylvester
Veitch turned loose a running
horse in Head Man. He charged
six furlongs in iii flat over a
rain-dampened track.
More impressive than the time
was the manner in which the
son of Eight Thirty accom-
plished it. Under double wraps.
with Sam Boulmetis up, Head
Man beat his stablemate, Born
Mighty, with his ears pricked
and carrying l22 pounds. Born
Mighty also is a Derby nominee.
Trainer Veitch was mighty
pleased about Head Mans race
and revealed that he might also
start Career Boy, whom he re-
CARDS as his strongest 3-year-
old hopeful. at Bowie in a few
days.
Career Boy, who lost a tough
nose decision to Prince John in
last falls Garden State was
shipped from Camden, together
with % other Whitney horses
and arrived at Belmont Park
yesterday.
Hes fit and about ready for
a race and I might van him
down and start him in an allow
ance race" Veitch said.
If Veitch decides on Bowie for
Career Boys 3-year-old bow,
Maryland fans will see the colt
who was rated on top in Jimmy
Kilroe's experimental weights
with 1875 pounds, one more thar
Nail and Needles.
Head Man was placed sixth
with 119.
Veitch is spending most of his
time at Bowie prepping Fisher
man for his comeback in the
100000 Campbell Memorial
Handicap, scheduled April z.
Fisherman was to have been
given his first hard workout at
Bowie early today.

MACHINE DOES EVERYTHING
'Boscoe' Terrific Aid
To Wakefield Players

A batter is tempted to "dig in
and wait for a fat pitch. But
Irwin says that the machine, be-
ing light for portability. jumps
around enough on the mound to
keep it of line and the batter on
his toes.
There is the possibility also
that Harry will keep the flesh
and blood pitchers on the bench
during practice instead of on the
mound where they can get in
condition. Twins pitchers are
not facing as many batters as
last year. true, but they're not
getting sore arms from the cool
