MEN T0 GET KRESS Giving Morgan and Seedsj or Porter for Shortstop Is Deal Now Looming. L BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, May 8—If there is anything to the reported transaction between Cleve- land and St. Louis base ball clubs that would send First Baseman Eddie Morgan and either Bod Seeds or Dick Porter, ou¥-| flelders, to the Browns for In- fielder Ralph Kress, the Indians| would immediately become an| even stronger contender for the| American League pennant and| the Browns would add some much | needed batting strength to their line-up. The outstanding weakness of the Cleveland club is a shortstop. where Bill Hunnefield is playing a brave but | erratic game, Kress, a strong batter| and capable fielder, would fill that tion for the Tribe as it has not n covered since Joe Sewell was in his best days. Kress also is & good third baseman and would work at the | far turn in case of injury to Johnnyi Burnett. | e himg el "the. adaiion | e :{n Kress '%flld m’;kse the Indians one of the best balanced clubs in the league and Connie Mack then would have something more about which to worry. Cleveland is heavily loaded with outfielders and could well spare either Porter or Seeds. Porter batted around .350 last season but has been ill most of this Bpfl.“gnnd unable to break regularly in line-up.

's hold-out tactics in the training season cost him the chance to start the campaign at first base and Fonseca made so much of his oppor- tunity that now even a home run spe- clalist has little chance against a 432 batting average. Fonseca'’s well . known brittleness might deter Cleveland ' from trading Morgan.

OICE IN'THE PREAKNESS Mud Is Expected to Enhance His Chances in $50,000 Race Tomorrow. BY HENRY V. KING. ALTIMORE, Md. May 8.—Cor- nelius V. Whitney's Equipoise is again favorite for the $50,- 000 Preakness, which will be de- cided at the Pimlico track tomorrow afternoon. The renowned eolt didn't do anything yesterday to merit this honor nor did Mrs. Payne Whitney's Twenty Grand do anything to lose it. The elements caused the change. It poured rain here Wetnesday night and Thursday morning and night, and the track became a veritable sea of mud. The weather cleared this morn- ing, but it is extremely unlikely it will dry out by the time the horses go to the post for the rich event. 1If the footing remains heavy Twenty | Grand probably will be withdrawn, He is not a first-class mud runner. He demonstrated that on more than one occasfon last year. On the other hand, the mud enhances the chances of Equipoise. The son of Pennant and Swinging is a_superior mud lark. On a fast track Equipoise would have a good chance to beat Twenty Grand and on a heavy or muddy one he is almost sure to beat him. If Twenty Grand is withdrawn Equi- peise will beccme an overwhelming fa- vorite and go to the post at odds-or. Albert C. Bostwick's Mate will be his worthiest opponent, and this colt is much better on a fast track than on a heavy one. Helen Unlikely To Play Abroad AN FRANCISCO, Calif., May 8.— Notwithstanding reports from London that Helen Wills Moody defend her title at Summer, and may also play in other championship matches abroad, the queen of the courts herself very recently indicated that she does not plan to go abroad until 1932. Immediately following her appear- ance in the North vs. South tennis matches at Los Angeles last week Mrs. Moody and her husband plunged into the wild back country in the vicinity of Santa Cruz for a qulet vacation, miles - from the nearest telephone. Mrs. Moody's friends quote her as indicating as late as last Sunday that she intends to confine her tennis activity to the United States this year. In 1932, however, it is her present plan to go to Europe and play in & number of tournaments, returning to Tos Angeles in time o see the Olympic games, in which she has expressed great interest. Mrs. Nana Harper of Oakland, first ranking American woman player, Jeft with her husband for Europe May 1,-and her departure was re- garded as rather belated. ~Helen Jacobs, high ranking player for eev- eral years, left for Europe several weeks 8go.

FORU. S, NET TEAM Tilden Says We'll Get Davis Cup Back Eventually, but Not This Season. | - l By the Associated Press. EW YORK, May 8.—-Big Bill ‘Tilden doesn’t think much of America’s chance of regaining | the Davis Cup this year. | Back in New York for his match with Vincent Richards in Madison Square | Garden tomorrow night, Big Bill had this to say about the Davis Cup situ- ation as it affects the United States: “Prank Shields and Sidney Wood need stern singles competition.

BY HUGH 8. FULLERTON, JR., Assoclated Press Sports Writer. THE Cincinnati Reds appear shy a few important parts of a good ball club, despite Manager Dan Howley's ef- forts to build up something like a winner. Howley made few more changes yesterday, buying Har- vey Hendrick, Brooklyn utility man, to plug the hole at first base, and releasing Chuck Dres- sen, but it appears that he has plenty of work ahead of him. Two Red outfielders, Wally Roetiger and Cliff Heathcote, are pounding the ball at & .400 clip, but no other player on the team is even near the 300 mark. The return of Edd Roush hasn't worked | out and Nick Cullop has not been hit- ting. Joe Stripp, & .300 hitter last year, has the best mark of the inflelders, .268, while Chick Cuccinello, who was ex- pected to do some slugging, is barely above .200. Lose 15 Out of 17. The Reds’ pitching also has been in- effective. Si Johnson did seven good innings against the Cubs , only to weaken, and Chicago red out five successive hits in the eighth to tie the score at 4 to 4. The Cubs pushed over apother run off Ray Kolp in the eleventh to win, 5 to 4, for Cincinnati's fifteenth defeat in 17 games. Kolp won one of the two victories and Red Lucas, who has gone the route four times, took the other. The league-leading St. Louis Cardi- nals won their seventh game in a row yesterday, combining good pitching and ittsburgh, 11 to 5. Jess Halnes gave the Pirates only seven hits, while the Cards got that many in the fourth inning, putting over five runs and then coming back after & shower to add four more in the fifth. Browns Scalp Indians, ‘The St. Louis Browns, by far less suc- cessful than their townsmen so far. did | about as well yesterday. They got start- edin the fifth inning and pounded four Cleveland pitchers for a total of 17 hits and a 10-to-4 victory. George Blae- holder yielded 13 blows, but he kept them well scattered to turn in 'his first victory of the season. Vic™ Sorrell of Detroit slso recorded Tigers won, 6 to 1. four hits and as many runs off Al Thomas before he retired the second man in f ‘The Eastern clubs of began their first Western trip of the and New York and Boston in m?«’:'um: also were not scheduled.
