BY DENMAN THOMPSON, Sports Editor, The Star. ILOXI, Miss., April 1.—A new B set of conclusions regarding the fitness of the Nationals for the opening of the American League championship campaign a fortnight hence may be drawn from the showing they make in five tilts with a pair of Southern Association clubs now | in the immediate offing. Pulling up staltes here tomor- row night, Manager Walter John-{ son will steer his charges into Bir- | mingham, where the Barons are to be encountered Friday and Sat- urday, and then pilot them to Chattanooga for a trio of tussles with the Washington club’s Look- out farmhands before they get home for the final tuning-up ma- neuvers at Clark Griffith Stadium. That the Barons will present the strongest oppositicn yet encountered by the Nationals is a foregone conclusion for more than cne reason. In the first place Birmingham always has been a tough spot for the Griffmen in their Spring exhibitions and if they contrive to escape defeat there this time it will be the first year in many they have made the magic city a stopping off place en route North from training that they have not dropped one or more games. Milan Is Ambitious. “Then, the Barons, who proved strong | enough to finish third in the 1930 Southern League campaign have ac- quired a lot of promising new talent which is sure to be driven to the limit/ by Manager Clyde Milan, who will be striving to prove to folk back in Wash- ingten that he still is a force to be reckoned with in a base ball way even theugh his playing days have long since passed. Zeb for many years was a star out- flelder with the Nationals and for one season—1921—their manager and his friendship with Johnson his roommate and buddy during his entire term of service at the Capital was so close the | pair came to be known as the Damon and Pythias of base ball, this relation- ship continuing after Milan ccased to function as an active on the fleld and confined his duties to coaching. In ad- dition the Barons will have the benefit of some first-class prepping for the tilts as they will have just finished a quartet of battles against the New York Yankees, St. Louis Browns and Cin- cinnati Reds, ‘Test Pitchers’ Stagnina. But to get back to the revised esti- imates of the condition of the Griffmen or the title campaign, which may be ormed from the contests ahead, their arrival at Birmingham will mark the start of the by Manager John- son of sending his pitchers thé full route, or as much of it as they can , instgad of designating in advance merely ‘three to five innings of toil in the box.

Alvin Crowder to fire displays the be permitted but in the Bam Jones. 4 On their showing in these Birming- ham games may depend Pilot Johnson's choice of hurler for the campaign’s naugural against the Philadelphia Ath- Jetics at Washington April 14.

Crowder Likely Choice. out of his ancient fiipper and Hadley is adjudged to lack the confidence es- | W83, sential to successful performance in so important a battle as the first of the season. If Crowder looks good in his | initial marathon performance or proves strong enough to function effectively for as many as seven sessions, he is & good bet to occupy the center of the diamond when the bell rings. If the general appears to be some- what shy of form for the test Walter will not hesitate to call on Brown, | however, as he has every confidence in the ability of the courageous and well equipped southpaw. to give a winning | performance, no matter how important the occasion nor how high the stakes. Wants to Examine Subs. It is likely the custom which has been followed in most of the games thus far of withdrawing the regulars some time after the half-way mark is passed will be continued, for Walter ot only wants to_see more of his re- | serves such as Kuhel, Harry Rice, | Hayes, Harris, Hargrave and Bolton, | but also is anxious to give them as| much work as possible to keep them on a flelding edge and enable them to find their batting eyes. Although the weather yesterday was | somewhat chilly with a high wind pre- vailing which made it rather difficult for the athletes to avoid cooling off after getting up & sweat all hands contrived to get in a beneficial work- out, of which there will be only two more here. The final practice is set for tomorrow and that for today was to be combined with a tilt against the Jearded House of David athletes in| which Sam Jones and Ad Liska were | expected to divide the chucking chores. | - . | MOUNT RAINIERS MEET | Benior Ball Team Holds Confab at School—Booking Contests.

Frank Waddey, once a foot ball great at Georgla Tech, is certain to be re- tained, probably as a regular in right field, and Larry Bettencourt, who play- ed with St. Mary’s of California, al- though handicapped by injuries this Spring, likely will be retained because of his ability to hit for extra bases. NEW ORLEANS, April 1 (#).—Wesley Ferrell, like the rest of the Cleveland moundsmen, doesn't know exactly how near ready he is, but he's going to find out. At his own request he was named to go the route today against New Orleans and Sunday will do the same against Shreveport of the Texas League.

A_game scheduled today between |_Episcopal at Alexandria, the start of the dia- mond ecampaign for scholastics here- about, has been postponed at the re- quest of the Alexandria institution. It will be rescheduled later in the season. The Alexandria squad is not yet in ipe. Both Central and Emerson have high mu of doing well on the diamond year. Central has some fine ma- terial and Emerson, though it has suf- fered the loss of several high-class per- formers, has some likely appearing tal- ent. Central did not have much of season in° 1930, but Emerson had a rather notable campaign. th spots of the latter’s season were twd victories over Eastern, public high champion. Central and Emerson each downed the | other on the diamond last season. Emmett Buscher, lanky right-hand pitcher, is being counted upon to hurl Central to many a victory this season. | De Bettencourt, Wright, Bonner and Alley are some more pitchers on the | roster. With Dick Cooke and Kiernan behind the bat and Heflin, former all- high Tech third baseman who is being | groomed to play shortstop; Humpy Miller, White, Broadbent, Holmes, Raub, ulawitz and Butler available, Coach ‘Ty Rauber is not worried over the in- fleld outlook. Fred Bruckner, who has had experience in Philadelphia and Harrisburg schoolboy base ball competi- tion, also is regarded as a good prospect. It is the outfleld that likely will give | Rauber most trouble. He admits that| to the probable personnel of the outer | works. Leisinger, touted as former Missourl high school player of worth, and Cossette are among garden candi- dates.

Mack has been telling the boys to watch Washington in the pennant scramble, but his peppery catcher thinks the Yankees will offer the stiffest opposition. “All we have to do,” he said, “is to watch the Yanks. If they get good pitching they are going to be mighty tough. I'm afraid of them more than I am of Washington.

If this is truethe first was a Scot. Certainly the members of John Reid's “Appletree Gang” were bold adventur- ers. They had to be to play in spite of the derision that was invoked by the early American golfers. I am old enough to remember when persons passing by the earller American golf links would pause to chuckle at the sight of the ridiculous persons concen- trating on such a silly pastime. At that period they were cracks concerning the horseless carriage. It may be that some persons who were loudest in their derision over the game of golf are now white-haired old gentlemen, who would give all they possess to break a hundred. Persons of this state of mind are now among the very serious golfers who are somewhat pathetic nuisances to themselves and to the other members of their country clubs. The persons who first looked upon golf as the most vapid time killer have gone to the other extreme, Plenty of Them Now. 'OBODY knows just how many golf- ers there are in the United States y. Some conservative estimates lace the number as being somewhere the neighborhood of four millions. ‘The country where they tried to laugh down the game when it was started probably now has more golfers than any country in the world. And this is without taking into account the ad- dicts of miniature gol This now is only a season old. When the Spring gets along there may be some means of getting an estimate on the number of these near-golfers. Golf has grown so steadily and so swiftly that the base ball magnates in particular have been viewing it with | alarn. Some of them prohibit their | players from touching golf clubs during | the base ball season. They insist that man- Yf the base ball players burn up all ¢ aeir energy and concentration in the game, out of which they get noth- ing but enjoyment, to the disadvantage | of the game which they are Fald o play. en, too, they insist that golf has lured from the national pastime poten- tial players and customers. They blame golf for the disappearance of the sand- lot players. There are more than a mil- lion caddies in the United States, and the jealous base ball magnates insist these youngsters would be playing base | ball and perpetuating the interest lnl the national pastime. | ‘The hero worship that used to go| from the youth of the land to the big figures of the diamond and the prize | ring has been diverted to a great ex- tent to the golf links, and this “menace to base ball” will spread with the de- ;relopmem. of miniature golf, if that| asts. ‘There is Sarazen, who was once a caddie and later a golf champion. And there always will be the inspiration of Robert Tyre Jones. ‘The Golf Rush.

Travis, playing for the United States, wen a British won the heavyweight prizefight cham- plonship. The_feud between Walter J. Travid and Jerome D. Travers, a younger | golfer, added color to the development of golf in the United States, but still, in the country where golf was fully de- veloped, in the British Isles, they felt that the leadership was safe. Then Jess Sweetser, an American- born golfer, who perfected his game while he was at Yale, staggered through and won the British amateur. He was a sick young man when he did it, but he fought through gamely to victory after Robert Tyre Jones had been put out in an earlier round. ‘Wken this happened there was a shadow across the Muirfleld links like the one that was over the tennis courts at Germantown when the Prench team won the Davis Cup.

The game that was treated here with derision when first it was introduced now is considered the greatest of our sports. It seems to have the greatest number of players. If it continues to grow in popularity the Americans will be about 80 per cent golfers before very \long. They are calling Robert Tyre Jones the champion of champions be- cause he has demonstrated that he is ter at his game than any other champion has been at his. And now we have something to pon- der over. In Scotland and in England, where American golf was regarded in a patronizing fashion, they are study- the form and listening to instruc- tions from Robert Tyre Jones, the American-born champion of golf, by means of the “movietone.” Only a short time ago this would have been considered in the light of taking seri- ously the youngster who was eager to teach his grandmother how to suck eges.
