Basket Ball, Boxing Part 5—4 Pages Griffs Go Overtime to Beat Atlanta, 11-6 : Veteran Team Due to Start for Indians - BARRAGE OF SHITS INTITH SETTLESIT Burke and Russell Strong in Box After Weav- er Is Paddled. BY JOHN B. KELLER. TLANTA, Ga., April 1.—Ris- ing in their might in the had all but cast aside the game by their erratic play afield, the Nationals today hopped on the venerable Bob Hasty, smacked his offerings to all corners of the At- | lanta ball yard and scored six times to beat the Crackers, 11 to 5. | It was the fourth win for the Cronin crew over Wilbert Robinson’s club and the fray wound up the training cam- paign series that started back in Mobile | early in March. The Crackers won two of the games and tied in one. It was a single by Moe Berg that op- ened the National's eleventh-round of- fensive. Then a wild chuck of Jack Russell's sacrifice put two on and the bases were full whenthe Cracker third- sacker dropped a throw from Hasty, who had picked up Joe Kuhel's sacri- fice bunt. ‘Buddy Myer couldn't do a thingeto help, but Heinie Manush con- nected for his fourth successive single to score two, then came a one-base by Joe Cronin, a double by Goose Goslin and, after Pred Schuite went out, a single by Ossie Bluege. That was more ‘than enough. ONTE WEAVER, who opened fire for the Nationals and went six in- | nings, was found in thé last two for the tallies that sent the game into overtime. He gave up five hits and four passes, and & mixture of hits with three errors accounted for the Cracker scor- ing. Bob Burke, out.for the first time this year, left-handed his way through two good innings, then Russell finished. The Atlantans got seven safeties all told. The Nationals did their hitting off Max Butcher, right-hander who started and went six sessions, and Hasty. They made 15 hits, one a homer driven into the left-field stands by Manager Cronin. ‘The boy field boss also thumped a triple and with his hits drove over the Nationals’ first four markers. It was the third of Manush's four singles that sent over the tying tally in the ninth. It was a tame affair for the first four innings. In that time the Na- tionals wasted a double by Schulte, a single by Myer and a pass. The Crackers were on the runway with two singles and a trio of walks, but they didn’t help. Nor did Schulte’s second sock, a single, do the Nationals any good in the fifth. This was a fat round for the Crack- ers, however. All nine went to bat! and by backing two errors with two hits four runs were registered. One was out when Cronin kicked a grounder and there were two on when Weaver picked up a bunt and threw to second (fHIL too late for a force. Dashiell's walk crowded the sacks. Then came Myer's boot on a roller to let in a run. A single meant two more markers and | still another single scored a fourth. Tm Nationals came back to pick up | two tallies in the sixth.

CAMBRIDGE CREW CAPTURES CLASSIC /500,000 See Tenth Victory in Row Over Oxford for Record Streak. | By the Associated Press. g UTNEY-ON-THAMES, England, April 1.—While half a million persons cheered them cn, a fine- stroking Cambridge University | crew today rode the ebb tide of the | muddy Thames to a two-and-a-half- length victory over Oxford to set up a new competitive record of 10 straight triumphs. It was the eighty-fifth renewal of the mest colorful of all boat races, rowed | as it is through populous suburban Put- ney zgainst a chimney-pot horizon, and was the forty-fourth victory for the Light Blues against 40 for Oxford and | one dead heat. Outclased by one of the smcothest crews in Cambridge history, the eight men in the Oxford sheil put up a game fight to hold a quarter-length lead at the mile and force Cambridge to their best, for the first 3 miles of the 41 -mile test. Cambridge’s winning time was 20 minutes 57 seconds, the slowest since For Cambridge it was merely reas- serticn of the dominance they have held on the water with only one interruption since the war. They had run their previous victory string to nine in 1923, when W. Palmer Mellen, an American- trained oarsman, stroked the Dark Blue: to & thrilling three-quarter-length vic- tory for their only triumph of the last 20 m gs. RAY clouds hung low over the course as the two crews left their boat houses for the starting line shortly after 3:30 p.m. Showers had been alternating with brilliant sunshiné through the morning, but a gray pall hung over the river as race time neared. ‘The two captains met and spun a coin, with Cambridge winning, an added blow to Oxford, which might have had a chance if it bad drawn the sheltered line. ‘The crews were at the starting line about 3:45, scheduled time of the race, but with the two coxswains jockeying for position it was not until 18 minutes later that they finally were sent away. Cambridge got the better start and held a slight advantage for the first few strokes, but the Dark Blue oars- men, bending grimly to their task, | crept up on the Light Blue shell, and at the mile mark had their bow out in front by a quarter of a length. rrm: Cambridge crew was not to be denied, however, and steadily but surely cut down that lead, went ahead—a quarter length, a half length, a full length—until open water began to show between the shells off Duke Meacows, From there to the finish | line, a mile away, it was just a breeze | for the Cantabs. Both crews finished comparatively {fresh, and after a brief rest paddled | back to their boat houses to receive the | congratulations of friends and prepare for the evening festivities which always fallow the classic. ‘With only two exceptions both boats were manned exclusively by English- men, the two outlanders being the | Australian W.

FISHBURNE, VIRGINIA | ATHLETIC STAR, DIES | Mysterious Fall From Window of | Bed Room Proves Fatal to Representative’s Son. | | By the Associated Pres: IVERSITY, Va., April 1.—Tom Fishburne, University of Virginia's Southern Conference welterweight champion, died tonight of injuries re- ceived in a fall from his bed room window. Efforts had been made to keep him alive with artificial respiration and | blood transfusions. Three transfusions were given, the first by Harold Stuart of Oklahoma City, who, with Fish- burne, was to captain the university boxing team next year. ‘The family of the youth, who was the son of Representative John W. Fishburne, was at the bedside when he_died. Young Fishburne won the Southern | Conference championships at the recent tournament at the university, won his onogram in swimming and was a candidate for the track team. | At just what time he fell was not known.

Manush, Batting .478, Tops All His Mates Heinie Alone of Griffs Has Hit Safely in Every Game to Date. By & Staff Correspondent of The Star. TLANTA, Ga., April 1.—When he clouted = cingle in the sixth inning today, Heinie Manush became the only Na- tional to hit safely in all his exhibi- tion games this year. It was his thirteenth englgemer:t of the training campaign and his nineteenth hit. He went on to make three more singles during the after- noon. Manush is well ahead of all the other National regulars with the stick. He has hit for an average of 478, high in any league and any season. Heinie's hits include four doubles, two triples and a home run. This Sewell boy not only is a smart catcher, who holds up his pitchers nicely, but also is an active one. Luke is on the job every second he's in the game. He's across the plate and in the infleld looking for a play whenever the ball is hit, and backing make the Crackers hug the bases once they got cn. ' Joe Kuhel is showing a lot of foot this Spring. The young first sacker moves around the paths sprightly and sprints distances to get under fouls. In the second inning today Joe dashed more than 40 yards to bag a foul hoist when the Crackers had two on with only one out. It was both a spectacular and very helpful play. Weaver is having shizt trouble again and that affects his control. While on the hill the big right- hander is almost continually striv- ing to tuck in the garment that drags out with every pitch and the more tucking and hitching Monte does, the more difficult he finds it to make his pitch good. The hurler’s shirt certainly bothered him today. After the game, Manager Cronin suggested that weights at- tached to the shirt-tail might help. Monte may try them. Weis, right fielder of the Crackers, - 1s -something of & mguntaln goat. Several times in the series here he scrambled up the hill back of his territory to make sparkling plays. His best catch of all, though, came today in the fourth freme when he clambered up two or three terraces to drag down a drive from Goslin's bat. Bluege still is playing his flashy game around the hot corner. His grab of Sington’s drive in the first frame to start a_double-play was an especially fine bit of fielding. Ossie also made a nifty catch of a foul bunt in the second inning to get Weaver out of trouble. Berg went behind the bat after the sixth ihning and showed he can chuck to second. In the eighth he deftly cut down the swift McKee, who tried to steal. ‘Three players broke in at one spot when the Nationals staged their big eleventh-inning rally. Berg opened the round with a single, Boken went into run for Berg and to end the | worry any but the Nationals' rivals. | |MIDDY NINE TAKES NO HELP NEEDED.

Schulte Wins BY JOHN B, KELLER. TLANTA, Ga, April 1.—Those Washington fans who were all wrought up over the deal that sent Sam West and Carl Rey- nolds to the St. Louls Browns in ex- change for Fred Schuilte and Goose Goslin need feel no concern about the revised Nationals’ outfield. Schulte, the newcomer, and Goslin, returning to his first major league love, along with Heinie Manush will give the Capital club an outer patrol at least as good defensively as the one it had | last year. | It 'is likely, too, that the new trio will be more effective than the 1932 combine offensively. Schulte, the newcomer, is & better center fielder than the Nationals’ fol- lowers in the Capital may realize. Not so fleet, probably, as West, the trans- | fer from the Browns nevertheless has to & high degree that knack of judg- ing a drive at the crack of of the bat which enables him to make many star- tling catches. He’s a ranger, too, cov- ering much territory behind him as well as to both sides. Schulte really is a fly-soak of considerable class. And Fred can throw. He possesses a strong arm, gets the ball away fast and for good distance. In the early exhibitions Schulte was somewhat aim- less with his heaves, but special drilling by Manager Joe Cronin has so im- proved the new Washington center fielder’s throwing eye that now he gets the ball to a spot with remarkable accuracy. IOSLIN, returning to the club, but in a new position, does his right fielding as efficiently as ever he did his chore in left. He's all over the lot with that low, swinging stride of his to get under hoists, spear liners or cut down hits. And the Goose, still running so spread-armed as to | make one feel that with another step | he might take off and soar above the | field, continues to make those dizzying one-hand catches at his shoe tops. Dizzying, yes, but he gets them. ‘There’s nothing in Goslin’s arm to After that lapse in '28, when his fling- ing wing went back on him so much the Washington shortstops had to do their left fielders’ throwing for him, the Goose came back in splendid manner. He is throwing as speedily and as far Nationals’ Renovated Outfield Promises Bigger Punch at Bat; Cronin’s Praise| as in his early days In the league. And he is more accurate then ever with his throws. Both Schulte and Goelin are wise with their throws. They have been in big time long enough to know the finer points of defense play. Sizing up a situation quickly, each seems in- stictively to direct his throws to the proper base or place. Rarely in the ex- hibitions thus far has either done any haphazard heaving of the ball. They throw to hold in check the runner most likely to hurt the club’s cause. That is what a good outfielder must do in getting the ball away. OMPARISONS in base ball often mean little so far as matching the records of a single season are concerned, but take them as one may the statistics for the pair Washington got seem to shade those for the pair sent away so far as offense is con- cerned. Last season, Schulte outhit West and the newcomer’s career record in the majors is but four points below that of the outfielder traded to the Browns. Reynolds, who has departed, outhit Goslin slightly, but the Goose's all-time big league batting average is better than Carl's. Goslin, Schulte and West all hit be- low .300 last year, but the two that Washington got in the trade did better than West and the Goose was only & | point outside of the select group of | batters. Reynolds clouted only a .305 pace. Both Schulte and Goslin may reason- ably be expected to hit far better than they did in the '32 campaign. Schulte in his work with the Nationals this | Spring looks a long hitter, too. His fine drives have surprised even Man- | ager Cronin. “Never realized Fred had such power,” said the pilot after watch- ing his new player in batting practice | today. “I have always figured him a good hitter, but these long drives of his get me. He can pole that ball much farther than I thought.” | How Goslin can drive a ball is well | known to Capital fandom that has | watched him hit ’em for 10 years. It's| enough to say the Goose still is hit- ting 'em far.” 2 Heinle Manush is getting along ‘well, afield and at bat. And he'll have with him in the gardens a capable pair. The Nationals will have an outfield com- | paring favorably with any in the majors.

By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. EW ORLEANS, La., April 1.— Never in the six years of Roger Peckinpaugh's reign as manager of the Cleve- land Indians has he had such a small collection of rookies to in- spect as is currently occupying his attention. And never in these six years has he had rookies of such outstand- ing quality.

IW YORK, April 1.—John Arnold Heydler, president of the National League, re- turned from California to- day, predicted all three clubs train- ing there would be important factors in the league's championship race, and sald he was particularly im- pressed by what he termed a general revival of base ball interest. All along the route and even on his boat trip West through the Pana- ma Canal, the National League presi- dent said he had found more than ::: usual filtel:lt in base b-llllg:i of major league clubs. Of the three clubs training in the Far West; the New York Giants, Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates, he was most impressed by the Glants. Not, ne said, because he felt they were the strongest club, but because of the obvious improvement in the team’s play under the leadership of Bill Terry. “The Giants are showing more hustle than in several seasons,” he said. “and look much better than might be expected, considering they are now in the midst of reconstruc- tion.
