Behrends, 0 Miller, 5 |resented by Shaw's score of 513, Mrs. Olareites ing, Track and Boxing By DILLON GRAHAM AP Feature Service Writer NEW YORK, Jan. 28—It’s safe to predict that 1939 will furnish the usual thrills and spills in sports, a full bateh of records, astounding up- sets and a lot of red faces among the experts—but that's all it's safe to venture. However, it is not foolhardy to glance over the sports lineups and size up the picture. As is custom- ary, a pre-Olympic year finds un- usual interest attached to swim- ming, rowing, boxing, and track per- formances, for this r's meets will serve as preliminary Is for the personnel of Uncle Sam’s Olympic representatives in '40. Let's look down the sports trail and get a general outline of what the future may offer: BASEBALL: The American League race may be as interetsing and closely fought as the National cus- tomarily is. With Lou Gehrig and Bill Dickey, Red Ruffing and Lefty Gomez a year older, the Yankees hardly will be as strong as last year. The Boston Red Sox, Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Indians have all bolstered their attacks, ready to bounce ahead if the Yankees should falter. The Chicago Cubs should have a more difficult time repeat- ing than the Yankees. With Lee Garrison and Johnny Vander Meer available for the full season, the Cincinnati Reds will be hard to stop. The Pittsburgh Pirates, Boston Bees and perhaps the St. Louis Cardinals will be serious contenders. And Bill Terry, gambling on the arms of Carl Hubbell and Hal Schumacher, on Hank Bonura at first and Burgess Whitehead at second base, will have the Giants in the thick of the fight if things break well for him. FOOTBALL: Southern California, Rose Bowl victor, appears a good bet on the Pacific Coast again. Ten- powerful team, which re- tains virtually all of its aces, should be strong again. Alabama will be on the road back. Carnegie, Texas Christian, Oklahoma and Duke lose many valuable cogs. Pitt, as usual, will be strong. TRACK: With the Olympic Games only a year away, 1939 will see an upswing in track activities and per- haps in peformances. Glenn Cun- ningham probably will remain the AND ALL THEIR SON ,their Dest feet forward—and upward—for the benefit of Miss Leslie Bogert, daughter of Mr. and M socialites, enjoys the sun at Palm Beach Miss Bogert is weari fastest miler, wiih serious challeng from Archie San Romani, Charles Fenske and Louis Zamperini. Fred Walcott is in a class by himself as a hurdler. Ben Johnson and Perrin Walker probably will divide sprintinz honors. Long John Woodruff still | appears the best half-miler with Roy Malott and Wilbur Greer top- ping the 440-yard racers. BOXING: Joe Louis, heavyweight, and Henry, Armstrong, lightweight and welterweight, should retain their crowns. Fred Apostoli likely will be- come middleweight champion. Melio Bettina is favored to win the light- heavyweight title. Pete Scalzo and Leo Rodak, along with Joey Archi- bald, the New York State champion. probably will get the featherweight muddle straightened out. Sixto Esco- bar may have trouble hanging on to his bantamweight homnors. The proximity of the Olympic year should increase interest in amateur boxing. TENNIS: Bobby Riggs looks as though he will be a sure nominee for the No. 1 singles berth in Davis cup competition. Gene Mako. who went to the finals of the national singles championships, may get the other spot. However, using him in singles might weaken the country chances in the doubles.

Hansen started hostilities by swishing a backboard shot which was countered two minutes later by Hussey of the High School who du- high for the individual match score The score was good enough to give Aukes chopped off the first two games in order to give .them the call over the Hawks in the second match. Blanton made the best earn- ed score of the evening with a total 504 for the match., The winning Aukes marked 1411 pins as against 1398 for the losers. Last match of the evening between the Condors and the Falcons wound up with the Falcons in the high spot by totaling 1515 pins for the night’s work, enough to give them a two out of three decision. Messer- schmidt of the Falcons clipped off a 514 tally to capture laurels for the session. Following are the scores of last the Egrets a two out of three win. | - WILL DISCUSS NATIONAL GUARD ' Senafor Rivers to Speak at Labor-Sponsored ‘ Rally Sunday { Senator Vietor C.
