Gloom reigned in the camp of the mons following the stunning set- ck. Two previous victories over the arriors were forgotten in the real- ition that the third and crucial atest had been lost. It was a great defensive battle that ached a climax in the third period ten the Braves pulled away to a ven point lead.

BROOKLYN DODGERS EATING WAY BACK INTO CONDITION Fg National League Organization May Make Bid For Major Loop Pennant Clearwater, Fla., March 17.—P)— Baseball history is crowded with the table-sitting achievements of players who have eaten themselves right out of the big leagues. Among this year’s rapidly reforming cast of Brooklyn Dodgers, the process is being reversed, with the result that a curious collec- tion of castoffs is eating its way back into condition and threatening to disrupt the National League pen- nant race. This renaissance was bound to fol- | low the passing of the old warrior, Uncle Wilbert Robinson, and the suc- | cession to leadership of Professor Max | Carey. Calisthenics, salary cuts, the big deal with Cincinnati and, finally, regulation of the commissary depart- | ment, all have contributed to the | most interesting shake-ups in recent | big league history. Hoyt Reduces | Carey credits the so-called Waite Hoyt diet for his preliminary success in reducing waist lines and avoirdu- thp American League, Hoyt joined fooklyn with a promise to behave | and win 20 ball games. He reported in the best condition of Jears, minus sonette, first sacker, whose left ankle j weeks. Meanwhile Carey my juggle is in a cast as a result of a pulled ten- don. Bissonette probably will not be in shape to start the season, though he should be all right within five the two hard-hitting players he got from the Reds by assigning Joe Stripp to first base and Tony Cuccinello to third, with Glenn Wright at short and Mickey Finn on second. Babe Herman is gone but Carey be- lieves this lost punch and color will be offset by Hack Wilson. The ex- Cub clouter will work with Lefty O’Doul and John Frederick in the outfield, unless Ike Boone's hitting continues too valuable to be omitted. Carey's pitching strength represents an embarrassment of riches. He and his coaches, Casey Stengel and Otto Miller, have been staying awake ‘late of night trying to pick the nine best men from an assortment of 16 pitch- ers. Vance, Hoyt and Watson Clark top the list. Old Jack Quinn, Lefty Heimach and Babe Phelps will stay. ‘Al Lopez and Clyde Sukeforth, ob- tained from the Reds, will handle the backstopping with some aid from Val Picinich. Casey Jones, Texas fighter, scored @ one-punch, 11-second knockout over Joe Thomas in a bout at Fort Worth. Despite the fact that his injured wrist ached after a round, ton.

Not all will finish. For the horses and rider that successfully jump the 32 different obstacles of water, brush and stone and then manage to show the way past the judges’ stand, there await fame and riches. Thirteen American-owned have been named for the race. Only one—Sea Soldier—is American bred. horses | Yank Star’s Legs Show Unmis- takable Signs of Weaken- ing, Experts Say FANS IN FIRST WORKOUT Will Be Paid Approximately $500 For Each Afternoon’s Work or Relaxation St. Petersburg, Fla, March 17.—(P) | —For the first time in ten years | Babe Ruth today is working for the old firm of Yankees under a one-year | contract. It calls for $75,000 representing a 6 per cent cut of $5,000 but the de- Pression, relatively, has not hit the homerun king more than a mild tap in the region of the bank roll. Among baseball men, the most significant feature of the Ruth situa- tion is the Yankee management's en- tire unwillingness to risk more than one season's pay on the chances of the Babe sticking around the peak in his well known specialty. His general health and condition never have appeared better but his legs, most observers agree, show un- mistakably the strain of 18 years in the major leagues, His batting eyes were none too sharp in his first exhibition game Wednesday, when he failed to get a hit in six tries, and was called out twice on strikes, with Ed Brandt in the box for the Braves. But no fears are felt for Ruth’s hitting prowness. He will be blasting ’em, as they say, until they move him up to the plate in a wheel-chair. é Ruth feels he is good for at least two or three years more of regular work, He may be ready to take it easier after rounding out 20 years, which he considers his real goal for active play. Meanwhile, for playing 150 ball games, more or less, Ruth will get a Presidential salary for 1932, Roughly speaking, he will be paid around $500 for each afternoon’s work or relaxa- tion during the regular American League season. Laurent Beats Hands Bud Welling of Fargo De- cisive Defeat on Head- liner at Minot Minot, N. D., March 17.~?)—Bobby Laurent’ of Minot decisively defeated in the eight round main event of a fight card here Wednesday night. Laurent won six of the eight rounds, the remaining two being even. It was the best showing Laurent has ever made in a local ring. In the semi-windup, a four rounder, Whitey McLarnin of Minot won over Billy Burns of Fargo. After the first round, Burns was content to hang on to-avoid the Minoter’s damaging punches. Sammy Aldahl of Des Lacs won over Bob Sullivan of Moorhead, Minn., by a technical knockout in the second round of a scheduled four rounder. In other bouts Nate Silverstein of Minot knocked out Don Herzog of Burlington in the second round and Kid Herman of Minot and Joe Mor- ris of Sawyer fought four slashing rounds to a draw. 4 (ficial betting at the Victoria club, be- ing quoted at 50 to 1. | Mrs. C.
