SPORTS. . THE EVE G BTAR, W. P i 7 ASHINGTON, D. €., SATURDAY, MAY 10, ~ Youngsters Bolster Nationals’ Attack : Sande Sees Derby Win for Gallant Fox * WEST: CRONIN NOW HELP N FFENVE - Among Five Regulars Above .300 Mark—Chisox Laced in Series Opener. BY JOHN B. KELLER. 7XTH the Nationals pound- | ing 20 hits in the last two games, batting aver- ages qf several went soaring. Once more five of the seven regulars who hit above the| batterymen are in the 300 class or better—the better means Sam Rice. The veteran, after slam- ming a homer in the second in-| ning of the game in which the White Sox were laced, 14 to 3, to assure himself a record of 20 suc- cessive games in which he has hit | safely, went on to collect two doubles and boost his average to .405. | ‘The .300 hitters right back of Rice are Joe Judge with .384, Buddy' Myer | with 354, Sammy West with 322 and Joe Cronin with .315. While the ster- ling performances of all these - ball pounders are pleasing, those of West |8 and Cronin are particularly gratifying. West, after floundering for weeks in at- | tack, has suddenly become a power at bat, and Cronmn has pulled himself out of a slump that threatened to reduce his offensive effectivencss to a discour- aging level. ‘West, of course, has been doing his recent hard hitting against right-hand pitchers, for he aliernates with George Locpp as center fielder, drawing the assignment when the opposition has an | orthodox flinger on the slab. At the outset of the season and for some day: thereafter right-handers, as well as pitchers of the other persuasion, were 2ble to stop Sammy at the plate, but 1t is different now For 10 games West has been banging the ball at a great rate at the expensc of the right-handers. In these games he has been at bat legally 29 times and garnered 13 hits. That's swatting at a rate of 448. No woncder Sammy’s av- ecrage for the entire stretch has soared well over the .300 mark. And recently he has been hitting for distance, too. It ‘ssems that at last West has his eye on right-handed pitching. And there wili be much more of it for him to look over, for the opposition cannot send left- handers to the hill all the time. Cronin’s recovery of batting prowess 18 much more recent than West’s. In fact, it has come about in the last two games, in which he has made five hits in eight times at bat. Prior to that Joe went to bat 21 times in five gaimes and drove the ball to safety only twice. Like West, Cronin is a distance hitter when in his proper stride and generally dependable in a pinch. With these two rounding” into good batting form again, the Nationals ought to make the going somewhat rougher for opponents than they have. during the 10 days, in which they regis- ;ere but four victories against five de- eats. 'HAT 15-hit bombardment of White Sox pitching yesterday brought about a victory that moved the Na- tionals up to second place in the league standing, for while they were lacing Pomie Bush's bunch in its first appear- wuwe of the year here the world-cham- fon Athletics took the measure of the dians over in Philly. Now the John- son band is ahead of the Tribe and only half a game back of the league- leading A.s. Dutch Henry, left-hander, who used to pitch for the Giants in the National League, and Ed Walsh, jr., were the victims of the Washington batters. ‘They hammered Henry for five hits and as many runs in the two innings he toiled. Walsh pitched to only three batters in the third round, but he was socked for four hits and four runs in the fourth, was rapped for a wasted double in the fifth and reached for a triple, double and two runs in the sixth. After Walsh was peppered to the extent of a double, single and triple for two more markers in the seventh he gave way to Pat Caraway. an elongated left- handed rookie from Topeka. Pat came in with one down and stopped the Na- tionals for the inning, but they got to him in the eighth for a run gleaned from a pass, theft and two sacrifices. LLOY'D BROWN, who pitched for the home side, also was peppered. The ‘White Sox got to him for 13 hits, but thefr 13 netted only 15 bases, whereas the Nationals’ 15 netted 30 sacks. Three hits were good for a brace of White Sox markers in round one. From then on through the eighth the left-hander was touched in lively manner, but he always succeeded in checking the visitors ex- cept in the sixth, when they put over a run with two singles, an error and a sacrifice. ‘Twice double plays helped the pitcher. He breezed through the ninth, though, retiring the Chisox in order. ICE'S homer was a solid smack. ‘The ball went on a line over Sec- ond Baseman Cissell’s head, landed in deep outfield and rolled to the far yeaches of the right-center pasture. Two were on when Sam landed. He tore around the bases and crossed the late well ahead of the throw there. is wallop clinched the battle as it turned out. It was a big day all around for Sam. He counted the first run for the Nationals and scored also in the fourth inning. All told, he crossed the plate three times and was credited with driving over five runs. Goslin also connected for a homer, his third of the season. It was a loft over the right-field wall and came with two mates on the runway in the fourth. ‘Walsh was Goslin’s victim. Incidentally the Goose got a single in the first in- | ning after having gone hitless in nine consecutive times at bat in previous games, 'YER made his first error of the season_when he muffed a throw | from Brown in the sixth inning | that if held would have meant the forc- ing out of Kamm at second base and fimhahly a double play that would have ept the Chisox scoreless in the frame ing for Buddy to worry about. He had- accepted 116 chances’ this season before muffing the throw and latef in the game he took care of five more chances. Quite a record. OY SPENCER was 4 starting catcher for the first time this sea- son and he was impressive behind | the bat and at bat. He helped himself | 6 & triple and single in four tnps to | the plate.

Thompson battered Ficlds from pillar Referee Elmer “SHm” McClelland in- stantly raised Taompson's right hand ending the conte:t. Thompson was credited with winning 10 of the 15 champien. Thompson’s_victory was a startling in 10-round engagements. Few figured that Thompson, having twice bowad to conquer him in a third meeting. Piclds entered the ring a 3-to-1 favorite, and 1 | he left it as soundly defeated as ever a ring champion had been. First Since Wolcot. weary arm into the air In victory, the Oakland lad became the first colored welterweight champion since Joe Wol- cot won the title from Rube Ferns in Fort Erle, Onatrio, in 1901. The passing of Ficlds was spectacular and at times pathetic. He was ham- mered into leg weariness and might | have fallen & victim to a knockout | punch after the tenth except for the | fact that he hung on for dear life in | an effort to escape having the fatal 10 counted over him. Fields left the ring with his spirit crushed and tears streaming down his face. i “I'll never be champlion again he moaned, as he sat on his rubbing table | in his dressing room. “I set the pace all ‘wrong and paid for it, I thought | I had Thompson when I staggered him with & couple of punches to the chin, but I guess I tried too hard. Fifteen rounds is a long road and I tired too quickly.” Between tears Fields pulled himself together and lauded his conqueror. “I tried my best but lost to a better man—that’s all I can say.” Then he broke down and cried like a baby. Thompson was jubilant over vie- tory. Today was his 4G-year-old fath- er's birthday anniversary. He regards his triumph as a birthday present to his dad. His father, tall, stoop-shoul- dered man, whose eyes shone brightly. through a pair of gold-rimmed spec~ tacles, beamed on his boy as the lad told of his victory. Pays Tribute to Vietim. “After the second, when Jackie landed his hardest blows and staggeréd me, I felt I would eventually be the winner,” young Jack said. “Flelds is as game as they make them. When his strength was spent he proved to be a good sportsman. Never once did he take any unfair advantage, and he lost like a champion.” Fields in defeat received $37,500, while Thompson got exactly $2,500 for his ‘victory. He had been promised $10,000 with the provision that if he won $7,500 would be retained by the management of Olympia Arena. The gate was 870,000. 3 ‘Thompson gave his word to Fields that he would meet him in a return en- gagement and he intends to keep it. Another prospective opponent is Young Corbett, the southpaw from Fresno, Calif. By strange coincidence Thomp- son and Corbett were classmates in their school days in San Jose, Calif. Corbett is credited with having shaded Fields in a non-title bout in San Fran- cisco in February.

VIENNA, May 10 (#).—Bill Tilden advanced to the final round of the Austrian tennis champlonship tourna- ment today, defeating Baron von é{:}arlinl of Austria, 6—4, 6—4, 8—10, that being the case, we have the privilege of presenting the new- est wrinkle for the Spring of 1930 in what the well dressed golfer should wear to meet a given situation. John C. Shorey of Bannockburn keeps well abreast of all the latest styles in golf toggery and golf shots and now he is the instigator of a new style in golf OURNAMENT winners have a | habit of setting golf styles, and preparedness. For Shorey, who used to | ‘be the District junior champion and has | Jately branched out as a winner of more important golf events, set a new style yesterday in playing the thirteenth hole at the Woodmont Country Club in the final round of the tournament, which he won from J. Munro Hunter, jr., son of the Indian Spring professional. Even though the sun shone brightly and the sky was devoid of a single cloud, Shorey had a raincoat hidden v'in his golf bag Johnny's chance came on the thirteenth hole, where he put his second shot in 6 inches of water in the bottom of the ditch which wanders along the right edge of the fairway. Shorey looked long at that ball, down in the water, and thought of his immaculate apparel. Then Ne ex- tracted his raincoat from his bag, don- ned it and went down in the ditch. Sock—and mud and water and ball rose from the ditch in a shower. Shorey's raincoat caught all the splatter—he ap- peared as immaculate as ever, barring a few spots on his knickers. And the new style was set. That experience with the ditch, how- ever, did nothing but delay Shorey's personally conducted processional to the end of the final round, where he out- steadied the youthful Hunter to win by 3 and 2, holing an 8-foot putt for the birdie which put the match on ice on the sixteenth green. Hunter downed Max Weyl, the Wood- mont_champion, by & 2 and 1 in the semi-finals. Weyl failed to dl.lglfly the golf that had beaten Harry Pitt and Charles W. Cole., jr., in previous rounds.

To start the fishing season off with a bang, 37 local anglers start tomorrow morning on the third de luxe trip under the auspices of the Atlas Sports Goods Co. for Wachapreague, Va. This year a larger and better bus has been en- gaged for the outing. This party will leave at 6 a.m. for the first leg of the (rlfi to Salisbury, where a hot lunch will be served at'the Chantry House. Last year the anglers on this outing landed 1,500 trout weighing over 21, tons.

Mainhall has withdrawn, and aside from his unplayed games there is but one un- played game, and this will not affect the leaders. In the last round Marshall won from Parsons. In the early stages Par- sons trapped a piece, which he later lost by clever maneuvering on the part of Marshall. Marshall later annexed another piece and Parsons resigned. Gleason won from Davis and Simmons from Clinton in the closing round. The score, to date, of the games actually played is as follows: ¢ Marshall " Gleason 6 Simmons . Clinton . In the fifth round of the junior championship tournament Sasuly won from Rodier, Marshall from Dantzig and Harris had a bye.

GEO. M. BOV'EN of Solo- mons Island reports that the hard- heads are beginning to strike. Each boat this week returned with a catch of from 15 to 20 and he expects much better conditions next week, owing to the hot spell which is constantly chang- ing the temperature of the water to higher degrees. Robert L. Pyle with Charles I. Mille and Willlam T. Dallow visited Wacha- preague last Saturday and Sunday and caught 183 fish for a total of 480 pounds. Their catch consisted of trout, flounders and hogfish. They had the fish iced and shipped. A report from Capt. Daniel P. Ball of the Eastern Shore states that the hard- heads have commenced to bite vigorous- ly and that one party caught 100 good- sized ones and one frout. It is rather unusual to catch a trout so far up in the bay at this time of the year. Another report states that the Arst large drum fish was caugh in the nets in the Patuxent River during the latter part of last week. It will be recalled that last year large schools of these large fish invaded the Patuxent River, damaging to a considerable extent the famous oyster beds in that section. Some of the drum fish when opened contained many oysters. From Staunton, Va., comes discourag- ing news. Because of the scarcity of trout and the fact that water in streams in that section is extremely low for this time of the year, a strong movement is on foot to close the trout season on May 15. The trout season opened April 1 and would ordinarily close June 30. Sportsmen throughout that section are heartily in favor of the action. It is said that trout in that section were largely exterminated last year by the drought. Some nice catches of white perch have been made in the Potomac around Chain Bridge, but up to the present time only a few herring have been seen. BADGER NINE SEEKS FIFTH WIN IN A ROW By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, May 10.—Virtually out of the Big Ten base ball championship battle, Northwestern today hoped to slow up Wisconsin's march to the 1930 title. The Badgers, with four straight victories, were confident of making it five today, with the advantage of their own fleld and one victory already scored over Northwestern, Michigan yesterday faded from con- sideration by losing to Purdue, 5 to 1. It was Purdue’s first win in sis starts, and credit was due Palo, its southpaw hurler, who held the 1928 and 1929 champions to six widely spaced hits. Ohio State clung to its chance of grab- bing the title by an 11-to-9 win over Indiana. THe victory gave Ohie a standing of 3 games won and 1 defeat. Ohio State was at Chicago today, while Tllinois invaded Michigan's park. aHoruback Ride Shelves U. of M. Lacrosse Player COLLEGE PARK, Md., May 10, Lacrosse may be a strenuous game, but impromptu horseback riding is much more dangerous, Bill Chew, University of Maryland stickman, has found out. Chew played freshman lacrosse for the Old Liners and had been with the varsity squad all of this season until Thursday. Now Chew is suffering from a broken wrist and a dislocated shoulder, received when he and Arthur Thorn, & freshman stickman, essayed to ride a stray horse. They were able to get aboard the bridleless animal, but when the steed put on steam they were dislodged from their positions and thrown heavily to the ground. Thorn was more fortunate than Chew as he got only a few scratches and will play against the Navy Plebes today. Coach Jack Faber of the Mary- land varsity planned to start Chew as center against Penn in Philadel- phia today, as Ossie Beck, lar face-off man, has an injured leg. Now Chew is out for the season and along with it Maryland has lost another clever youngster who played center and the other attack posi- tions. Judy Reeves of Washington has recelved an appointment to West Point and left the Old Line school early this week.

ALTIMORE, May 10.—Gal- | lant Fox is going to Louis- ville Sunday to run in the Kentucky Derby the fol- lowing Saturday, and, says Earl Sande, who will ride the victor of the fortieth Preakness, “He'll win.” As Sande, best known of American Jockeys, climbed down grinning from his mount at Pimlico yesterday after winning his first Preakness in five at- tempts, he was enthusiastic over the Belair, stud’s son of Sir Galahad, ITI. “In all my years I was never on & horse that went so fast down the back lane,” he exclaimed. “He's a great colt d he'll win the derby.” Sir Barton Stands Alone. But one horse in history, however, Sir Barton, has won both of the classics, ’11;.11% J. K. L. Ross colt captured both in Sande’s announcement confirmed the :arlier assurance of James Fitzsimmons, Wililam Woodward's trainer, that “if the colt comes out of the Preakness in good shape he'll be sent to the Derby.” Gallant Fox came out of the race in | very good shape indeed. By finishing | three-guarters of a length ahead of Thomas M. Cassidy's Crack Brigade at :he end of a stirring duel in the stretch, he established himself as the leading 3-year-old of the season, enrichd Woodward by $51925, became the favorite for the Derby and enabled Sande to realize a long-cherished am- bition. A roar “ride him Sande” from a large portion of a crowd of some 40,000, | the largest ever to witness a race in the State, helped the veteran jockey to “ride him” in the duel Held in at Start. Gallant Fox went to the post at the shoftest odds—even money—favoring any colt since Man o' War won the Preakness in 1920. He was the one Maryland representative in the field of 10 of tl best colts and one filly in training and popular sentiment favored both the horse and his famous rider. | Sande -sald afterward that Gallant | Fox was in a lot of trouble going into | the first turn and that he had to hold him in to avoid running on flying heels ahead. In the back lane he had to swing wide to get clear, but by the time the head of the stretch was reached it was nothing but Crack Brigade and Gallant Fox. Crack Brigade won $5,000 for his owner, and $3,000 and $2,000 respec- tively went to the owners of the next | two to finish, Snow Flake and Michigan Bo V. To the Derby also is going Crack Brigade and possibly some of the other Preakness starters, and also G. W. Foremen’s highly regarded Ned O., in- eligible for the Pimlico classic because |he is a gelding.
