Big Ten Baseball Race Is ‘Wide Open’ Affair Chicago, April 27.—(#)—With five teams boasting both hitting punch and effective pitching, this season’s western conference baseball race shaped up Monday as a “wide open” battle, Illinois topped the’ field in games won, having captured five contests without being beaten behind fine pitching by Hale Swanson and Howell Berg. Iowa won four games without @ loss. The other unbeaten teams, were Michigan, Indiana and Minne- sota, each with two wins. Minnesota, the defending cham- pion, demonstrated Saturday that its club had power to spare at the plate. The Gophers captured a double bill from Purdue, winning the opener 19-8 and the nightcap 10-1. Indiana trimmed Ohio State Fri- day 9-4, and on Saturday Indiana defeated the Buckeyes again 5-0.

Cichosz was fourth among Northern League batters last year. Jack Andrews, California southpaw. a star for the local team last season. is expected to be the backbone of the pitching staff, with other holdovers | including Clay Smith, Wilbur Stolt and Gene Fish, all right handers. Blas Monaco, who played third last year, will probably be moved to short- stop. Other promising infield candi- dates are Bill Callaghan, Fargo, Alex Wijoacik of Chicago, and Jerry Malay ot Denver. Irelan’s principal problem now is finding a good first sacker, with) catching dutics expected to be capably cared for by two Devils Lake youths, Bill Rucker and Gus Rizson, ° Truman Connell, a veteran, is the leading candidate for the outfield, with a number of other prospects in- cluding Hugh Alexander of Oklahoma, Windy Hansch and Charlie Sellers, the latter two from’ Devils Lake.

The game was the highlight of a day’s play which saw Dizzy Dean hold the Pirates to six hits as the Cards; won 3-2 and Lou Gehrig and Jimmie Foxx, the cannon men of the Ameri- can League, both boom out homers as the Yankees beat the Red Sox 12-9 in @ slugfest. Scores Winning Run Allen allowed the Brawns only two hits in the last 8 2-3 innings but the stunt that labeled him a fighter was his driving slide into Catcher Rollie Hemsley to score the winning run in the last of the 16th. Hemsley could have caught Allen's bunted pop but he let it drop, tried for a double play and threw wild to second as both runners scampered safely to bases. Then he dropped the throw that lost the game when hold- ing it would have completed a triple killing. The dizzy one was given plenty of competition in a 10-inning hurling duel by Bill Swift of the -Pirates. Dizzy retired the Bucs in order in their half of the 10th and then Frankie Frisch's double and Pepper Martin's single brought home the ba- con, A total of 33 hits was made as the Yanks downed the Red Sox before 12,000 at Fenway park, the Yanks getting 18 off the deliveries of four Red Sox flingers. Boston took a six- run lead in the first inning but the Yanks came back to score seven in the next frame. Frankie Crosetti of the Yanks got five singles. 11 Misplays Feature Game The Boston game was much like the fracas at Philadelphia where Brook- lyn defeated the Phillies 10-7 in a battle of 16 hits which were intersper- sed with 11 errors.
