The Big Four circuit, composed of boys from the seventh grade and up, is the smaller of the two leagues, composed of four teams, The | Little Six consists of six teams of boys from the fourth to the sixth ‘The junior baseball season will be opened officially next Monday, ac- cording to tentative plans, Anderson announced Tuesday. Several more entries are expected to be made with ‘@ few more teams at that date, An- derson said. From the leagues, sponsored by the recreational board here, will be chos- ’ en a team to represent the American Legion in the American Legion's an- nual junior baseball tournament. The recreational board’s program includes six weeks of intensive practice. Ac- cording to present plans games will be played in the morning and several during the afternoon. No schedule has been arranged but Anderson ex- pects to complete the arrangements of games by next Monday. — Teams already entered in the feagues will select their captains and managers soon, Anderson said. Ten- tative arrangements call for between two and five games each morning. Umpires for games in the Little Six Joop will be selected from members of the Big Four league, Anderson said. ‘Members of the various leagues have been, selected from entrants last ‘week. s of the same age and in the same neighborhood compose each team.

Teams Move for Intersectional Tilts Four Western Clubs of Ameri- can Loop Believed Doomed in Eastern Play (By the Associated Press) After a day's hiatus, in which only one game escaped the rain and the general movement of clubs east and west, intersectional warfare breaks out on both major league fronts Tuesday. Four western members of the American league, invading the At- lantic seaboard for the first time this year, have scant prospects of success against the powerful Philadelphia, Washington-New York combine. The National league's eastern con- tingent, on the other hand, opens in the west with more concerted strength than it has boasted in several seasons. Interest centers on sportsmen’s park at St. Louis, where the NeW/Boston . York Giants engage the St. Louis | Brooklyn Cardinals in what a little later on |}! migh be termed a “crucial series.” A game and a half ahead of the Giants now, Gabby Street's Red Birds face an opportunity to take a commanding New York Chicago St. Paul Columbus lead. The Brooklyn Robins, flushed with the third place Chicago Cubs, who likewise have captured four in a row. and the Phillies meet the luckless Cincinnati Reds. 'To the Chicago White Sox falls the thankless task of bearding the fast- traveling Philadelphia Athletics in their own park. The St. Louis Detroit Tigers face Washington and the Cleveland Indians meet the Bos- ton Red Sox to round out the Amer- ican league menu. Their ability to take all extra-in- ning decisions again stood the Cardi- nals in good stead Monday as they made ready for the Giants by nosing out the Cincinnati Reds, 6 to 5, in 12 innings.

MACDONALD SMITH LEADING IN BRITISH OPEN TOURNEY Tommy Armour Posts 76 for 36-hole Total of 155; Es- tablishes New Record * Carnoustie, Scotland, June 2.—(?}— Shooting spectacular golf all the way, MacDonald Smith, veteran New York professional, scored a 71 over Car- noustie’s gruelling course in the sec- ond qualifying round of the British open championship Tuesday for a 36-hole total of 141. Smith, who led the field in the first 18 holes of qualifying play Mon- day with a fine 70 over the Barry course, made few mistakes Tuesday. He needed 37 on the first nine largely but other than that he was in little trouble. His putting especially was deadly. Tommy Armour of Detroit posted a 76 at Carnoustie for a 36-hole total of 155 that should put him among the qualifiers. Armour played erratic golf, rang- ing from a spectacular cagle at the 14th where he laid his brassie stone dead on a blind shot over the spec- | the simple short 13th where he was j bunkered. He finished raggedly with @ five at the 17th and a six at the 18th where he was bunkered. Smith's 71 established a new record for the revised Carnoustie lay-out as the veteran James Braid built it.

Larry Montez of Manila, Philip- pine Islands, posted an 82 for a 36- hole total of 159. The probable qual- ifying limit has been fixed by most experts at around 157 or 158, Tom Maguire of Stockdale, Calif. who took an 85 at Carnoustie Mon- day, made 85 again Tuesday at Barry and thus was eliminated with a 36- hole total of 170, far beyond the prob- able qualifying limit. The veteran Briton, Abe Mitchell, partner, George Duncan, took 79 for 154. Still another of the game's fa~ 15 for 157. the Argentine, was missing short putts all morning but managed a 74 for a total of 149. tH?

Knott Monday faced the Millers for| the third time in nine days, with} Morgan as his opponent, and came up with his third victory, 11 to 4 Jack Kloza hit two home runs for the Brewers, and Christenson got one. A home run by Anderson in the ninth inning gave St. Paul a € to 5 victory over Kansas City and steadied the Saints’ position at the top of the league. Griffin did a good job of pitching for Indianapolis in a night game with Todelo, but five errors assisted the Mud Hens to a 3 to 1 victory. Columbus spent its open date in de-| feating the New York Giants, 3 to 2 in an exhibition game. Paul Dean, 17-year-old brother of “Dizzy” Dean, held the Giants to five hits. Rosenbloom May Lose His Title Results of National Boxing As- sociation Poll Shows Sen- timent Against Maxie Chicago, June 2—()—As far as nine member commissions of the Na- tional Boxing association are con- cerned, Maxie Rosenbloom’s world light heavyweight championship may be vacated any time now. Results of the N. B.

Under the N. C. A. scoring system i/Southern California, performing as it did in the east last Saturday, may S!run up close to 100 points. The rec- ord is 72 points, set by Stanford in 1928. —_ se * aaa ; | Dixie’s Pals Few | | In Mud Hen Infield | ee. St. Paul, June 2—(#)—Young Dixie Walker's strength, it seems, is his weakness. During a fanning bee here Casey Stengel, leader of the To- ledo Mud Hens of the American Association, said Walker's trou- ble is that his arm is too strong. Otherwise he's a “pretty good player—he can do everything in the books.” It takes the four infielders, the pitcher and the catcher to stop a throw from the Toledo outfielder, Stengel said. 7|Recognize Schneider As Winner of Classic Indianapolis, June 2.—(?)—Louie Schneider's winning race car crossed the finish line 59 seconds ahead of that driven by Fred Frame, Los An- geles, in the 500-mile race here last Saturday, the contest board of the American Automobile association ruled Monday night in disallowing the protest of Harry Hartz, also of Los Angeles, owner of the entry driv- en by Frame.

This makes the club late in reaching the hitting region, which usually results in a sliced ball. In addition, there is an absence of punch or power in the shot and the snap of the wrist is wasted, with a loss of distance the result. Now if the player will hit against the stiffened left leg, instead of shift- ing the weight completely onto it, he will find it possible to hit with the weight behind the ball. This lets the hands reach the proper hitting region where wrist action comes into play.

The tipsters—typical of English racing—greeted the first comers with the “sure” winner written on a small |slip of paper and sealed in an en- velope. ‘While thousands wended their way |toward the historic course, the turf | world at large anxiously awaited the | flashing of the winner. | To the holders of tickets on the j winner and the sweepstakes, the re- sults mean a fortune. The division of the Irish sweepstakes this year provides for distribution of nearly $10,000,000. Accurate estimates of Derby at- tendances are mostly guesswork, but conservative calculators say between 750,000 and 1,000,000 persons will see the race. ‘As for the horses, almost secondary to the pageantry accompanying the race, not more than two dozen are expected to answer the bugle call at about 3 p.m, (9 a.m. E. 8.

Cooper, considered one of the best Portsiders in the league when in his prime, came to the Pirates in 1912. He joined the Chicago Cubs in 1925 and left the league the following year.
