Quietly but none the less shrewdly and effectively, McKechnie, who piloted pennant winners at Pittsburgh and St. Louis, has rebuilt the Braves and sent them out along the war path again. They were a troublesome sixth last year. With additional bat- ting punch and better backstopping assured this year, the tribe will be far from a set-up. Conceivably. with a few “breaks” they may prove con- tenders in a race which already boasts of five potenial pennant win- ners, Add Two Rookie Hitters McKechnie has added two fence- busting recruits to the outfield in Red Worthington, and Wes Schulmerich, the $40,000 Los Angeles rookie. They will flank Wally Berger, a sensation as a slugger in his first big league campaign in 1930, and give the Braves a@ wallop comparable to that of the Cubs and Robins. McKechnie also has revamped his infield with a view to getting further punch. Earl Sheely, who led the Pa- cific Coast League at bat with .403 last year, has returned to the big show to replace Johnny Neun at first. He was drafted from San Francisco. At third, Bill Dressen, drafted from Springfield, Mass., where he hit for .344 has the call so far over Buster Chatham, who came up from Port- land, Ore., last year. Has Veteran Combination ‘The keystone combination remains intact with the hardy perennial and Pepper-hot Rabbit Maranviile, at short, and the brilliant fielder, Fred- dy McGuire at second. Chatham will understudy Maranville, the only ac- tive survivor of the 1914 champion- ship Braves, but the Rabbit is smok- ing strong cigars and breathing de- Canes So al ctvals toe his feeular ae mn, Harry (Socks) Seibold, who won 16 games last season, heads a veteran pitching staff. It includes such other experienced right handers as Bruce Cunningham, Ben Cantwell and Fred Frankhouse, along with two of the craftiest southpaws in the game, Tom Zachary and Willie Sherdel. Mc- Kechnie figures on a comeback by Harold Haid, the Californian, obtain- ed from the Cardinals, and Labels Reigs Leheny, Pittsburgh product, as @ great rookie prospect. Al Bool, purchased from Pittsburgh, adds another potent bat to the at- tack. He led the Pirates in runs driven in last year. He will share the backstopping job with Al Spohrer. New Leipzig and Elgin Win at Meet Regent and Flasher Downed at District Tournament at Mott Friday Night (Tribune Special Service) Mott, N. D., March 14—New Leip- y- New Leipzig had little trouble with Regent and led 12-4 at half-time. Enzi and Leadon were stars for New Leipzig while George Rogers was the big gun for Regent. Elgin’s great defense combined | with Griffin’s sensational shooting were big factors for the Watchmak- | ers. The Giant county crew held a. 10-4 advantage over Flasher at half- time .

Paced by @ brilliant sophomore, Johnny Schmieler, Pittsburgh Pa., the Wolverines qualified 15 men for individual events in preliminaries Friday night. Northwestern qualified seven; Minnesota six; Iowa four; Illi- nois three; and Chicago and Purdue one each. Schmieler set a new national col- legiate record of 2:31 2/5 in the 200- yard breast stroke and lowered the Big Ten 220-yard free style by four- fifths of a second, to 2:17 2/5. Kennedy, Michigan, set a new con- style at 5:06 2/5. was 5:09 4/5. Marsh, Minnesota, and Lobdell, Towa, are certain to cut into Michi- gan’s points, however. Marsh saw Schmieler break the Big Ten record in the 150-yard back stroke, but in the next heat the Minnesotan pared 1 1/5 seconds off Schmieler’s time, lowering the mark to 1:43 2/5. The former record was 1:46 1/5 Lobdell is defending champion in the fancy diving event and led the qualifiers in number of points Friday night. ee * Fights Last Night — - (By the Associated Press) At Enid, Okia— Dude Cook, Enid, knocked out Moro Dimitris, Sioux City, Ia.

James A. Farley, chairman of the commission said the action of the commisson refusing to sanction Pe- trolle as an opponent for Tony Can- zoneri, lightweight champion, in a title match in the Garden March 27, had nothing to do with the situation. Tut and Petrolle’s pay for their bout was withheld after Tut’s knock- out by Petrolle. Reports of a betting coup, Tut's 34-second knockout of Petrolle in a previous match, rumors before-hand that the match was “in the bag,” and Tut's lacka-daisical ef- forts all tended to throw suspicion on the bout. The commission, apparently certain all was not well with the match, |<; found trouble mustering proof to that oy the investigation was the boys would be paid their wages.

Wishek scored three points in the third quarter to the Linton team’s seven. Linton retaliated by holding the Wishek crew scoreless in the fin- al quarter. Mandan, outclassing the Ashley ag- gregation in every department, won an easy 37-11 victory in the second ; game of the first round contests Fri- | day night. Coach McMahan’s Braves galloped to a 6-1 advantage to close the first quarter and elevated their margin to 13-2 at half-time. Captain Frank Boehm led his Mandan team-mates in scoring with 19 points.
