In the contests. to date—such tilts as those with the House of David nine, Spring Hill College and a second team's! encounter with Mobile not being | included—the Johnson band has scored an even dozen victories, been defeated three times and tied | twice. i | Starting slowly, the Nationals have improved steadily, especially in attack. During most of their stay in the South, they found it difficult to connect with the ball often, but for the last week they have been hitting effectively. Manager Johnson is satisfied that this hitting spurt, something he predicted would ! occur during their last week of training, wil] esult in the Nationals entering the | ghampionship race next Tuesday with their eyes pealed and their bats swing- | ing freely. In their last seven exhibition tussels the Nationals have collected 103 hits and 62 runs. That is almost an aver- age of 15 hits and nine runs per game. Quite an attack. 'OR the last of the the Orioles, send to the hill this afternoon Pred Marberry and that stringbean left-hander, Bob Burke. Marberry his last time out hurled a good game against | the Chattanoogans, despite the licking | he took. He really deserved better fate. Burke in his last fling stopped the Lookouts. It was said in Baltimore yesterday while the Nationals were trimming lhe‘ Orioles, 7 to 3, that the pitching for | the International Leaguers todsy prob- ably would be done by Monty Weaver and Bill Clarkson, right-hander, and Harry Smythe, who sends ‘em up frem the left side. | Today's game is the ninth of the ex- hibition series with the Orioles. The Nationals have won five of the games, | Jost two and tied in one. Ir may be that Roy Spencer, first- | stringer of the Washington catch- ing staff, will have to do most of the freceiving in the last two practice affairs. | Both CLff Boltcn and Bill Hargrave suffered injury during yesterday's en- | gazement in Baltimore. Boiton cut a leg with his own lplkcs while running down to first base in second inning of the game and after singling in the fourth had to give 'I)' to Hargrave. The relief catcher in the eighth mning had a finger on his right hand torn by a foul tip, but managed to catch in the ninth despite the pain- ful injury. How serious are these hurts will not be known until examinations by Trainer Martin are completed today. Mike was not at the Baltimore game, but Frankie Baxter, assistant trainer, took good care of the wounded. AXTER JORDAN, who was given the call over Wally Dachiell for the extra infield jcb with the Nationals, may prove a better outfielder than an inner defense man. He certainly looked the goods yesterday when sent to the garden for the first time ia the exhibi- tion games. The Newarz draftee had just two chances in right field. He took care of both and his last effort that ended the game was of sensational order. It got his club out of a tough situation, too. Th» Birds had put a run across in the ninth and had runners on first and | second bases with two out. Big Joe Hauser caught hold of a good pitch and rifled the ball on a line toward the fence | back of right-center. The blow looked good for a hit from the start, a hlt that would have meant at least two| more markers for the Orioles. Jordan, whe had been playing well | over toward the line, was under way to his right at the crack of the bat, but with the brisk breege that swept Oriole | Park veering the ball away steadily it did not seem possib] the rookie would even check the mhm s m'— Buv.":mnnnubedmlndms ‘despera pretty & backhand grab am ball as one would care to see.

Br the Associated Press. SOUTH BEND, Ind, April 11— Heartley “Hunk” Anderson hes been handed foot ball's toughest job—coach | of the fighting Irish of Notre Dame. Anderson, first a player for the late Knute Rockne, then an assistant to the wizard of Notre Dame, vesterday was named to direct the 1931 squad, with Jack Chevigny second in command. He will not, however, have the titl of “head” ccach. He will be “senior” ccach. The title of head coach forever be- longs to Rockne, Father Charles L. O'Donnell, C. 8.

Knute Rockne can- | | not be displaced as head coach.” Anderson came to Notre Dame from | Calumet, Mich., and played at guard| for Rockne in 1919, 1920 and 1921.

BY FOSTER HAILEY, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, April 11.—The 8t. Louis Cardinals and the Philadelphia Athletics will be leading the major league base ball parades in October, un- less some 60 newspaper “experts” are wrong—which, of course, s . possible, Voting in the fifth annual consensus of the Associated Press, 64 experts col- laborating on the American League selections voted 41 to 23 that the club that Connie Mack bullt will win the American League pennant for the third successive year, while 66 experts vot- . ing on the National League cast 35 - ballots to 31 that the St. Louis eclub again would win the flag in the older « circuit. The margins of the two 1930 pen- - nant winners, while not as it as those given the Athletics and cago Cubs last year in the congensus, still were sufficiently large to leave no room for argument as to the combined opinion. ‘The 23 first-place votes in the Amer- ican League not given the Athletics were divided among Washington, New York and Cleveland entries, with the Griffmen receiving 16, the Yankees § and Cleveland only 1. ‘It was the worst Chi- showing of the Yankees in the five ~ years of the consensus, Brooklyn and Chicago divided the major portion of the Cardinal overflow, the Dodgers receiving 12 votes to 13 for Rogers H while New York received 4, 1 m:nd~bellue it or not—Philade! phia 1. The Boston Red Sox, with & mnew manager and practically a new were given least consideration of thi 16 clubs in the two ieagues. No picked them to finish higher than place and only one voled that spot for them. The Cincinnati Reds, who wers relegated to the National lm cellar, °~ got_cne vote for a fifth-place berth. The Reds had the distinction of re« ceiving the most votes for last X however, being so picked by 47 of the consensus collabora‘ors, while only 45 picked the Red Sox ‘o finish in the nether regions of the American League. | This may have been accounted for by the fact that several of the selectors voting on the American ings didn't bother to lisi any m after the first three. The experts figuring in the consensus included all the major “war” eorre- spondents who covered the big league camps for the metropolitan of the country and other close ol rers of training camp activities.

Speaker dropped out of the playing end of the gams last year, after 24 seasons on the diamond, but the sport still has him in its grip, and from his extensive knowledge of the pastime he should be able to de- scribe graphically the action on the playing field. The broadcasting of games seems to be growing in favor with major league club owners, who only a year ago frowned on the practice. But such men as William Wrigley of the Chi- cago Cubs and Billy Evans of the Cleveland Indians believe that the to the manner in which the work was done. They believed there was too much criticism of players by the microphone experts. It Was to ob- viate any such faults and insure its patrons of an expert description of the Chicago games that Speaker was signed for the talking end of base ball. “I have punched the air often and have been given the air by umpires many times,” said ‘Speaker in dis- cussing his new job, “but this will be the first time I ever played a game on the air.” If Speaker is successful in his new ventufre it may open up & new en- deavor for retired ball players, who are sufficlently good speakers to broadcast games. The experiment of the Chlu’o station will be watched with considerable interest both by base ball men and radio officials.
