POMPANO BEACH, Fla,
Mar. 24.-Two problems face
Mickey Vernon, the Senator's
manager. as he mulls over his
pitching staff and attempts to
cut the squad to the 28-player
limit in time for the American
League opener April 9.
First, he must decide on
which five candidates going
through spring PAGES here will
be cut.
Second, he must pick a fifth
starter to go along with the
nominal big four of right
handlers Bonnie Daniels and
Joe McClain and lefties Pete
Burnside and Claude Osteen.
Actually. Vernon must pare
seven incentive pitchers, a
catcher and an infielder-by
the time the club breaks camp
week from Tuesday.
Daley Likely to Go
The logical catching candi-
date to feel the ak is Pete
Daley. Billy Klaus and John
Schaive are scrapping for the
only vacant infield berth.
The decision between the 80
year-old Klaus, who has been
in the majors for eight years,
and the 28-year-old Schaive
who has never made it in six
tries with the two Washington
teams. may not be made until
the last day. At the moment
Klaus appears to have an edge.
Since it has been obvious
from the start that Bob
Schmidt and Ken Retzer would
share the Senators catching.
with Harry Bright in reserve,
Daley appears dependable. He
spent the entire 1861 season
with Washington batting a
miserly 1872 and has been given
almost a complete brushoff in
camp. He has come to bat
only four times in IL games.
Four men are in contention
as the fifth starting pitcher.
Ed Hobaugh, who started 10
games last season, is one of
them, Rap Ripplemeyer, Dave

MUST CUT FIVE TO REACH LIMIT
Vernon Faces 2 Problems
In Attempt to Prune Squad

that If tomorrow was opening
day, his outfield would be Pier
sail. Gene Woodling and either
Jim King or Joe Hicks against
a righthanded pitcher, and Pier
sail, Willie Tasby and Chuck
Hinton against a southpaw.
Vernon mulled over the player
possibilities after the Senator's
scheduled exhibition with Kan
sas City was rained out. Mickey
decided to set his pitching ro-
tation back a day instead of
passing over yesterdays sched-
uled pitchers.
That means Burnside will
have six innings as his goal,
with Rippelmeyer to finish up
against Milwaukee here today.
Thus Daniels will delay his first
six-inning trial until tomorrow
against the Nets, with Gabler
to follow Daniels.
NOTES-Yesterday's rainout
was the first year in six years,
two for Buffalo, two for Dallas
Fort Worth and two for the
Senators. j.. General Manager
Ed Doherty is due back this
morning from a trip to Arizona,
but apparently will have moth
ing to report on the trade front.
Doherty repeatedly made a
feeble offer for Vic Power, but
the Indians were not interested.
Yesterday was not a wasted
day despite the rain. The Sem
ators had a heavier than usual
practice session in the morning
and most of the pitchers ran in
the rain after the game was
called. Last one in was Rippel-
meyer, who was racing from the
foul line to the centerfield fence
and back when it was raining
so hard you could barely see
him.
Vernon attempted to talk
Manager Hank Bauer of the AS
into returning here Monday
when both teams have an open
date, but Bauer said his squad
needed a day off. With the
AS to train in North Miami next
year and Milwaukee probably
moving into a new stadium in
West Palm Beach, the Senators
will have four teams within 35
miles in either direction.

starts, when the 25-player

club for at least the first month

CONTINUES SOLID HITTING
Musio| Ready for Final Go

Musial, uncoiling from the
picturesque but unorthodox bat
ting stance that has made him
one of the games greatest bats
men, continued his solid hit
ting yesterday by stroking a
double that chased home the
winning runs in the Cards 4-3
victory over Philadelphia.
It was the second day in
succession in which Musial, who
led the league in batting seven
times, accounted for two hits
and a pair of RBI. 1t also was

deserved the verdict although
he admits he didn't do much in
the closing rounds. In any case,
it was very close battle as the
scoring indicates.
Referee Al Berl had Griffith
the winner, 8-6-1 in rounds.
But the two judges had Paret
in front, Artie Aidala by 9-6
and Tony CaStellano by 8-6-1-
certainly nothing to make any,

the Cards sixth consecutive
triumph and left them holding
the top spot in the MI stand
ings with a ga record.
A 300 hitter for 16 consecu-
tive seasons through 1858,
Musial has been below the
mark for the last three years
and wound uD with a .288 aver
age for 1861 with Is homers
and 10 RBI.
Now he's looking to close
out a 20-year major league
career by adding league rec
ords in most games, most hits,
most KBI, most runs and most
at-bats to the marks he al
ready has established for most
total bases. most long hits and
most doubles.
All are within reach. And he
also can top the major league
records for most long hits and
most total bases with Al and
IS respectively. That would
push him ahead of Babe Ruth
Q,356 long hits) and Ty Cobb
1888 total bases.
While Musial was keeping
the Cards in first place among
MI Clubs. Houston moved into
the runnerup spot with it's
fourth straight victory. an 8-5,
10-inning triumph over Boston
at Scottsdale. The Dodgers,
beaten 4.3 by the Nets at
Vero Beach, dropped into third.
Braves Beat Yankees
In other games, Milwaukee
beat the Yankees, 80, in 10
innings, at Bradenton; San
Francisco edged the Cubs, 80,
at Mesa; Cleveland whipped the
Angels, Al, at Tucson, and
Minnesota defeated the White
Sox, 6-1, at Sarasota.
The Kansas City-Washing-
ton and Pittsburgh Cincinnati
games were Cancelled due to
rain while Detroit and Balti-
more rescheduled their rainout
for a double-header today.
Musial's key double in the
first inning capped a four-run
uprising-Bill White tripled
the other two runs home-that
beat the Phils. The Colts tied
it in the ninth on johnny
Weekly's homer and a run
producing single by Won Nc
Daniel, then beat the Red Sos
on Pidge Brownies three-rur
homer in the 10th.
Donovan Goes 7 Innings
The Nets edged the Dodger:
with an unearned run in the
fifth after Gus Bells RBI single
and a two-run single by Frank
Thomas gave them three runs
in the third inning. A Yankee

When time was resumed,
everyone expected the ball to

The Bruins called time out

For Campbell

GIobemuster 81
Over Is Rivals in
Rich Bowie Race
BY JOSEPH b. KELLY
Star Racing Editor

/ Guar RdSlls EulLOT
Balmy breezes, blue skies and
a fast track provided a tailor
made backdrop as a crowd ex-
pected to reach 10000 began
moving into Bowie today for
the ninth running Of the $118,-
$50 John B. Campbell Handi-
cap.
A select field was ready to
run for the money-more than
$4,000 awaited the winner-in
what promised to be the most
exciting Campbell since 1855
when Alfred Vanderbilt's So
cial Outcast nosed out Fisher
man in a four-horse blanket
finish.
| Elcee-H. Stables Your Alb
hal was scratched early today
and Mrs. Ada l.. Rice'S Rare
Rice was regarded as a doubt
full starter.
Favored over 13 rivals in the
mile and = a sixteenth classic
was Leonard P. Sasso's Globe
master. a So choice. Jockey
Johnny Rotz, who won the
Wood Memorial, Saranac Han
dicap and Arlington Classic
aboard the $4,000 yearling
purchase last year, was slated
to ride the 4-year-old colt.
Won Sprint Race
Last week Globemaster,
trained by Thomas ]. Kelly,
convinced many Bowie fans
that he would be tough IN the
Campbell when he won a g.
furlong allowance event in
scintillating style, turning the
sprint in 1:111s under a hold.
With Garry Back and Yorky
passing up the Campbell,
Globemaster was the starting
lightweight under 100 pounds
in quest of his first major tri-
umph this year. The weights
ranged down to 100 pounds for
George Sims 100-1 shot, Yeux-
doux.
With probably the best bal
anced field ever assembled for
Bowie's premier horse race,
Globemaster was far from a.
standout.
Ambiopoise Chief Opposition
Most observers figured the
favorite's chief opposition would
come from Robert Lehman's
Ambiopoise, 119, a stretch run
ner to be ridden by Sam Boul-
metis. Sam took the 1859

biopoise, rested and freshened
in South Carolina winter quar-
tiers for two weeks, finished

in the irons; George D. Wide
ner's Yorktown, 116. the New
Orleans Handicap winner, with
Jim Nichols in the saddle, and
Calumet FARMS Beau Prince,
1T, Howard Grant up.
Outsiders In Field
Not far behind this trio were
Peter Fuller's Hillsborough,
lis, the Bowie Handicap win
ner two weeks ago, with Charlie
Burr in the saddle; Jerome De-
renzo's April Skies, 116, second
in the Campbell to Conestoga

Business, Brief

The Prince Edward county
school board had one of its
shortest meetings on record
Monday evening.
The session, which produced
only one piece Of action, other
than approval of minutes and
payment of bills, was concluded
in half hour.
T. j. McIlWaine, division sup
crintendent, was authorized to
sell several old buses. classified
as scrap Inquiries on the
buses were reported from an
AppomattoX county man and a
Buckingham county minister.
The buses sought are almost 20
years old. it was noted.
The board, short on business
for the first time since schools
were closed in 1859, discussed
its role in civil defense for the
county, but took no action. The
general attitude of the board on
the matter appears to be one of
a Willingness to cooperate when
asked to do a specific thing.
