THREE MATCHES TICKET CU PLAYED OFF IN BOWLING MEET Charles Sabin Gets High Score for Evening in New Tournament ! | san FRANCISCO, Cal., Feb. 7.—| |Major League baseball clubs may pass up California as a spring; training ground, due to the Pa-| cific Coast League's decision to| reduce admission prices, league dl<§ ctors said here. 1 The income from exhibition| |games at 25 and 40 cents a head would not warrant the majors’ traveling to the Pacific Coast. The new scale of prices will not g0 into effect for exhibition games this year, however, because of previous agreements with the ma- jors. Revenue from exhibition games fel! off last year, with the result that Telatively few games have bren scheduled for 1933 between the Seals and Missions, and the White Sox, Pirates and Cubs. The Giants will not play any games here. The first three matches of the new bowling tournament beginning at the Elks' alleys were played, off last night with Charles Sabin, of team No. 9, getting the high score for the evening, with a total of 574. Second high score, 548, was made by Blomgren of Team No. 3 which team defeated No. 9 two out of three games. Team No. 4, made up of J. George, J. D. Van Atta and G. Shaw is the only team that won all three games rlayed Tlast night. Nearly all of the bowlers of the three teams playing last night were present and eager for the fray. The matches scheduled for to- night are: 7:30 p. m—No. 8:30 p. m.—No. 9:30 p. m—No. The detailes of night follow: Team No. Lavenik ... Blomgren Shepard ..

Henvy»vighway Program Planned by Mississippi JACKSON, Miss., Feb. 7.—Missis- sippi’s State Highway Department faces 1933 with a schedule of work that includes completion of a heavy construction program — $4,320,000 obiained from Federal sources— and the knowledge that a $10,000,- 000 program can be launched if the State sells $5,000,000 in bonds al- ready authorized. The bulk of the work now under way will be completed the first six months of this year. Department plans are so advanced that sale of the bond issue, which would be matched by $5,000,000 of Federal aid, would see another program launched without delay. DAILY SPORTS.CARTOON —By Pap NE WON PLACES ON T™E “ALL BIG S\’ KFOCTOALL. AND BASICETBAL . ;\ N7 ONE OF THE BEST S0ARDS IN HE B& Si% Al Rights Rescived by The Associated Press TEAMS ¢ THEY ALL LOOK ALIKE THE GQEAT' Noles Dang LINE Couont oo i FROM scoeig /7 $ “UNNERS\TY OF KANSAS VERSATILE GIANT ATALETE Along with the movement to give horse-racing back to the hors- es, and college sports back to the boy this spring, it also appears business conditions are about to give those classic Eastern inter- collegiate title events (hitherto the prey of the West’s sun-kissed lads) back to the East. Not even the East wants the Poughkeepsie Regatta, however, for 1933, but I doubt very much if the Pacific Coast talent will pass up altogether the chance to collect scme additional athletic honors, even at the heavy price of a few transcontinental round trip rail- road tickets. Even with Stanford ana Califor- 'nia withdrawn from the I C. A. A. A. A. track and field champion- ship team seems certain to be represented in the big meet at Harvard Stadium, May 26-27. The Trojans, even though they {no longer have Frank Mycoff and Bill Graber of their 1930-31-32 ! title forces, probably could send 'on a half dozen lads capable of scorinz enough points to make it four staright for U. 8. C. Among the few to have a big year in 1932, financially as well as artistically, Southern California should be able to finance such an expedition without undue strain on the treasury. It would be worth the Trojans, making a mon- etary struggle, anyway, for the sake of the prestige involved. And the Easterners would be glad to have them again, even if it meant losing the chance to put the clas- sic I. C. A. A. A. A cup back on an eastern shelf after a lapse of nine years. PENN LOOKS POWERFUL The Eastern outfits do not want | to regain such ancient trophies as these by default. They prefer to win them, if possible, on their merits. In another year or two, Pennsylvania may burst forth with a title-winning track team. At least Lawson Robertson, favored by such talent as Bill Carr and Gene Venzke, is going about his job these days in a quite hopeful frame of mind. Having overthrown the great Eastman in individual competition, contrary to all laws of Pacific| coast gravity and propriety, why not attempt the burlier task of overthrowing Southern California’s| ubiquitous Trojans? It is to be hoped, meanwhile, that the sad state of fiscal affairs at Stanford will not make it im- possible for Big Ben Eastman,| himself, to be sent east, in th’ senior year, for a final whirl at| the I. C. A. A. A. A. games and | if possible a return race with the! great Bill Carr. DESERVES A CHANCE It would be a crowning show for the blond Californian, on top | of a series of setbacks in his big-| gest races, to be kept at home| ythis year. Though the greatest| Irunner of his times, combining the 400-800 meter range, Eastman | has twice been beaten by wo record performances in the I. C.| A. A. A. A quarter, first by w} Williams at Philadelphia, and then | by Bill Carr at Berkeley. His subsequent attempts to gain national championship or Olym; medals last summer were, as ev-| eryone knows, frustrated in con-| vincing style by Carr over the 400 meter route, under circumstance which deprived Eastman of a good |chance to clean up at his best| (distance, 800 meters. | ———— s Cheaper than using your own car.

The Roadmen grabbed a first-quarter lead of 3 points but saw it wiped out at the halftime when the Smoke Easters had a similar mar- gin. The last two stanzas were hectic Moyer Is Star Moyer starred for the winners both the offense and defense, I* was his speed relaying in the final quarter that put his team cut in the lead and kept it there.

Fouls were frequent, largely due to the speed of the play that grew rather rough at times. | Garn, for the Firemen went out |on four personals each, and Metz- | |gar and Blake played almost the entire last half with three hang- ing over them. The Firemen fin-! ished the game with Frank Metz- gar, youthful parochial player, subbing at guard. Osborne, iB P. R. guard, was fouled out in ]thc final period. | Moyer was hign scorer for the .game with 12 points, five fields and two on free throws. Smith and Hollman tied for second with |10 each. George Brothers led the Moose the entire distance and were nev- er in danger. They finished the game under wraps. Paul Brown, Moose center, was still handicapped by an injured ankle and was un- der par, which accounted partly for the Moose’s failure to stop the Grocers. The latter is the only quint in the league to have a chance to tie the B. P. R. for first place in the current half. They have one game left, against the local Fire- men. If they win it, they will be tied with the Roadmen with four games won and one lost, making a playoff mecessary to decide the final winner. The Orocers and Firemen are due to scrap it out next Thursday evening at the High School gym.
