F FORMATION OF TWO HF LEAGUES APPROVED HERE FRIDAY NIGHT American Legion Juniors, Capi- tol Club Ready to Join New Circuit EXPAND PARK BOARD PLAN Legion, Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis Representatives Sanction Program Under the leadership of the city _ Park board, the American Legion and the Rotary. Lions and Kiwanis clubs Bismarck and Burleigh county will have more amateur baseball this year than ever before in its history. This was determined Friday night @t a meeting of the American Le- gion’s junior baseball committee with Fepresentatives of the other organ- faztions at which the subject was canvassed. Service club committees will report to their various organiza- tions for definite decision and this is expected to be favorable. ‘The aim is to organize in Bismarck @ league of amateur baseball players who are interested in the sport for the fun and exercise they will get out of it. Teams already in process of organ- ization and willing to join the league are the American Legion juniors and the Capital Baseball club. At least two more Bismarck teams are expect- @d to be organized and the circuit probably will be expanded to include teams from Baldwin, Wilton, Regan and possibly Wing. Playoff Is Probable This will give Burleigh county two separate leagues. The first including the Bismarck teams would operate in Western Burleigh county while teams - composed of McKenzie, Sterling. Mof- fitt, Driscoll and Menoken would be organized in a league to represent the eastern part of the county. A post- season play-off probably would be @rranged to determine a county champion. ‘Theodore Campagna, WPA recre- ational director, attended the meeting Friday night and expressed his ap- proval of the plan. He has been ac- tive in organizing the teams outside of Bismarck and welcomed the plan of local groups as one which will give the city and county a well-rounded @mateur baseball program. The plan is a development of the . system inaugurated by the city park board three years ago. Every summer @ large number of “kid” teams are organized into city park leagues. Last year 34 teams were listed in that classification. Under the proposed system this help would be extended to young men who are interested in baseball but who, heretofore, have had no encouragement in this direc- Hon. Details to Be Worked Out ‘The details of the league organiza- tion and financial support will be Worked out at a later meeting after the three service clubs have expressed themselves on the general plan. The meeting came quickly on the heels of the first practice session held gy the American Legion junior team. More than 50 boys turned out at the sity baseball park Friday afternoon to egin the campaign which may bring Bismarck its first junior champion- > thip in history. Practice sessions will be held each school-day evening from now until the close of school, beginning at 6:30 p m. The schedule to be followed after the close of schood will be worked out later. ‘Themar Simle, who has coached the Legion juniors for the last three sea- sons, again will have charge of the | elub and will be assisted by the Amer- fean Legion's junior baseball com- mittee. Expansion Is Aim ‘The fact that 17 years is the age Mmit for participation in junior base- ball activities sponsored by the Le- » gion caused the veterans’ organization to a system whereby young beyond those years might con- to participate in the great na- tional sport. ‘They found that a large number of ‘boys who have played Legion junior would like to continue the p sport and asked the service clubs to | assist them in makifg this possible. Another factor was the desire of the =. committee to provide more stiffer competition for the local u team. Last year Bismarck’s entered the state tournament fa. after having played only 13 mes whereas Fargo, the state cham- f had played 35 games. = ‘Phis difference in experience, in the ° of the Legion committee the local lads under an in- @uperable handicap. By starting the earlier and playing more . they hope to remedy this de- ‘ in the Bismarck junior program. Barney Ross Kayoes Chuck Woods in 5th Louisville, Ky.

GOPHERS DRILL HARD ‘Minneapolis, May 2.—(7)—The third 7 on practice game of the spring ing season ‘City, County Ama \Fine Hurling Helps | Saints to 11th Win Millers Bow to Indians in Slugfest Chicago, May —(P)—St. Paul's ;Saints are making the most of some of the best early-season twirling the American association has seen in sev- eral seasons. The Saints won their sixth straight |game Friday, whipping Columbus, 13- 5, behind the pitching of Lou Fette, who chalked up his fourth straight victory. The Saints have three hurl- ers who have done exceptionally well thus far in Fette, Glenn Spencer, with three wins and no losses and Rigney, with two wins and no de- feats. St. Paul's 16-hit attack was led by Bob Boken, who smashed out four hits in five trips, including two doubles and a home run. Bob Fen- ner hit a homer for the Saints. The victory put St. Paul on top the league in the number of victories, the club having won 11 games while losing four. The champion Minneapolis Millers ran into trouble on their home lot, bowing to Indianapolis 13-9 in a heavy hitting tilt. Buzz Arlett hit two homers for the Millers, while |Mickey Heath homered twice for the Indians. Berger and Page hit for the jcircuit for Indianapolis. Milwaukee opened its home sea- son before 9,677 spectators by whip- ping Louisville 7-4. It was the Col- onels’ sixth straight loss. Chet Laab’s homer into the centerfield bleachers with two on gave the Brew- ers a good start. Storti also hit for the circuit for the winners while Roll- ings homered for the Colonels. Toledo's game at Kansas City was called in the third because of rain. Indians Rally to Win Minneapolis — Indianapolis came from behind to win from Minneapolis 13-9 in the opening game here.

The figures may be a little too cold {to speak about Mr. Grove'’s wisdom, jbut they're eloquent enough, He has pitched 33 1-3 innings for the Red Sox and he has given exactly one earned run. He has given 21 hits in four games, all of which he won, He beat the Cleveland Indians: Friday, 6-0, giving up seven hits, walked not a single man and fanned nine. The day was one on which nearly every game was featured by a fine pitching performance. Dizzy Dean pitched three-hit- ball as the Cardi- nals slugged out a 12-0 victory over jthe Brooklyn Dodgers; Johnny Broaca, finishing his first game in four starts, held the Chicago White Sox to seven hits as the Yankees won 3-2, and Jimmy Deshong of the Sen- ators pitched five-hit ball as Wash- ington walloped the Browns 17-1. { FRIDAY’S STARS Dizzy Dean, Cards—Gave Dod- gers three hits to win his third victory of year.

The pageantry surrounding the classic was the most brilliant since the boom days of the the last decade. Some 60,000 fans were expected to pack the grandstand paralleling the quarter-mile stretch and wager close to $1,500,000 the largest amount | in the last half-dozen years. Fleeting Glimpse For Many Thousands get only a fleeting t.| glimpse of the horses, however. They|stein and Jim Lunn, infielders; Eu- break from the barrier at the head of the stretch, swing past the grand stand fighting for a contending posi- tion and then take out over the re- maining mile leading to riches and fame. Their knowledge of the race will come from the loud speakers but they will share the thrills that make the Derby more than a mere horse Tace. The drive on Louisville, started Monday and increased dally, reached its crest this morning. Rail- roads, bus lines, airplanes and pri- vately owned cars poured their pas- sengers into an already crowded but gaily celebrating city. The Derby fever grips everyone. Alvin Karpis broke ‘into the headlines Friday but the newsboys still yelled: “All About the Derby.” The weather man took an impor- tant part in the pre-race arguments. He predicted typical weather with showers in the afternoon. The track dried out rapidly Friday but addi- tional rain probably would make it sloppy for the big race. Despite unsubstantiated rumors that all was not well with J. E. Widener's colt, Brevity remained the firm choice to give the eastern sports- men his first Derby victory. Over a fast track, the bay flash stacks. up as a 7 to 5 shot but come rain and his odds lengthen with the Bomar stable’s mud-loving Grand Slam moving Prominently into the picture. Mud May Cut Field Upon the condition of the track also hinged the size of the starting field. Banister was not expected to go if the racing strip is heavy, leaving Bien Joli the lone color bearer of E. R. Bradley's Green and White Silks. Forest Play, strictly a fast track horse and a stablemate of Grand Slam, Mrs, F. C. Mars’ The Fighter, Mrs. P A. B. Widener’s Dnieper, one of the two geldings, and W. C. Good- loe’s Seventh Heaven, which with Gold Seeker represents the fillies, also were rated doubtful starters over @ muddy or sloppy track. In contrast, several trainers were almost praying for rain. Grand Slam and A. C. Taylor's Indian Broom, the Canadian owned sensation, move up many pounds in the mud. Morton L. Schwartz’ Bold Venture worked six furlongs in racing time of 1:13 1-5 in the slop. Regardless of track conditions, “Sunny Jim” Fitzsimmons holds the hand that may be very difficult to beat. The stars of his triple entry, William Woodward's Granville and Teufel from the Wheatley stable, have never raced in the mud but they are bred for such going. Granville Is Darkhorse Granville looks like the horse that Brevity will have to beat. Benefitted by No. 6 post position, Jimmy Stout should have no trouble keeping Gran- ville out of trouble in that wild quar- ter-mile dash for the first time. Brevity was not so fortunate in the draw, getting No. 14, far out on the track where he will need all his famed early speed to to keep from getting shut off. Flanking him are Grand Slam and Sangreal, the latter ®@ speed gun from the barrier. Bold Venture breaks alongside Granville from No. 7 position. Banister, Merry Pete, in to set the pace for Granville, and Teufel, and Indian Broom drew the inside posi- Mrs. Silas B. Mason's He Did, Wil- liam DuPont Jr's Gold Seeker, W. E.
