This card will be three times as good as the last one.” One of the features of the eve- ning’s program will be the presenta- tion of pennants and medals to the team and individual members of the victorious company basketball quint at the fort.

Four teams stood out in the opin- ions of the “experts” as the leading contenders for the championship. They were Milwaukee, St. Paul, In- dianapolis and Toledo, the 1927 pen- nant winner. But the presence of {80 many veterans convinced many that it wes a tyssup. Brewers Have New Team Milwaukee has almost a new team this year, having lost pitchers Ossie Orwoll and “Bubber” Jonnard, Den- |nis Gearin, Paul Johnson, Roy Elsh, Lloyd Flippin and-Harry Riconda, In their places the club has recruited some hustling youngsters and one or two major league vets. It is from Manager Lelivelt, who took the Brewers from the second division to a fighting first division club, that the Milwaukee fans look for big things. Indianapolis has made only a few ‘changes, losing Infielder Johnny Butler to the Chicago Cubs and pick- ing up_ Pitcher Emil Yde and Out- fielder Roy Spencer of the Pirates. The new club owner is James A. Perry. Crack Infield Gone _ St. Paul has lost its cunning in- field— Norman McMillan, Leo Di rocher and Gene Robertson—to the majors, but expects to march tojin leading the f: pennantville with its heavy pitchi staff and new rookies. pare Toledo has made several additions: in an attempt to hole left by Molly with the Cubs.

The upset came last night when Willie Hoppe of New York lost his first match in five starts to 26-year- old Earl Lookabaugh of Chicago, 50 to 30, in 53 innings. The defeat laced him into a tie for first with lchn Layton of St. Louis. Converting Hoppe’s numerous safety shots into points and play- ing a spectacular game, Lookabaugh led all the way. He is considered out of the championship, however, as he has lost three of the six matches he has Lee Gus Copulos of Detroit advanced to third place last night by defeat- ing Allen Hall of St. Louis, 50 to 45, in 61 innings. The defeat shoved Hall from a tie for third place to a tie with the defending champion, Otto Reiselt, of Philadel- phia, for fourth position. Hoppe’s defeat raised the hopes of Reiselt to defend successfully his title. With two defeats and three victories, he will play Hall in the feature match tonight.
