Sports News Griffs in High Gear for Early Going : National Pastime Gets Off to Good Start | [[Rovooerommpmace 00 —8y ToM pomm] SCHEDULE FAVORS CLICKING COMBINE Well-Balanced Cronin Crew! Should Make Headway in Week on Home Lot. BY JOHN B. KELLER. ETTING off on the right foot, Washington's Ball Club now has a golden opportunity to step along swiftly in the early going of this American League championship Face. It is favored by the schedule for the week it has yet to play in Griffith Stadium before invad- ing foreign fields. After games with the Athletics today and to- morrow, it runs into a string of four with the Red Sox, still rated ¥cousins” to all other clubs. In high gear, clicking nicely in Rll parts, apparently strong enough to recover quickly from jolts that might mar its action, the Cronin crew could order no better set-up. | Of, course, getting by the Athletics | before taking on the Red Sox is a task | to which the Nationals must give seri- ous consideration. Connie Mack's year- ling team is no hollow shell of the awe- some group of A.'s that boasted its Sim- mons, its Haas and its Dykes. e As they subdued the Athletics in the M-to-1 season opener here yesterday, though, the base ball boys who get pay checks signed by Clark Griffith clearly demonstrated they are a match for the Mack minions and indicated they might be their betters over the trail that | desn’t end until next October. True, the A’s were minus the serv- ices of Jimmy Foxx, regular first base- man and the great Babe Ruth’s only The T WITH SUNDAY MORNING: EDITION ening Sfar. WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, APRIL 13, 1933. 'President Amon Cronin Star in With Griffs BY JOHN B. KELLER. RESIDENT ROOSEVELT, Mrs. Roosevelt and some 24,000 other shivering fans—the official count | was 23,359 paid, not including | One-Eye Connolly—in Griffith Stadium | saw the Nationals upset the Athletics | |of Philadelphia in a 4-to-1 battle as |the lid was pried off the American | League season yesterday. But it might | have been different had Tony Freitas, | the Portuguese pitcher, started by the | A’s, worn the rubber overshoes Vice | Preisdent Garner did not want to wear. Clark Griffith, host of the occasion, had provided the extra foot covering for use by the Vice President in the pre-game march across the soggy field for the flag-raising ceremony. Mr. Garner protested the contraptions never | were worn in Texas where he men don’t bother about water, that he had | never worn & pair, but he was persuaded | to put them on for the parade. | Had he left them around Freitas | might have picked them up and put them on. Then the pitcher probably | would not have slipped off the slab |in the second inning, and, as it proved | | to his downfall. | WHEN Tony skidded as he was about to_pitch to Goslin, a balk was| called and Cronin, who had begun | the round with a single, was waved to second base by Umpire Dinneen. Then Goslin walked, Schulte moved up Cronin with a long fly and as Second Baseman Bishop of the enemy made a wild chuck when trying to complete a double-play the boy manager toted in the first run of the da; From. then on, the A’s never were in the ball game so far as an advantage was concerned. They did make it un- comfortable for Al Crowder, however, in the seventh inning when, after they had nicked him for a run coming from two singles backing a walk, they had the‘ bases full with only one out. A double | play, though, got the frozen Crowder out : of the tough spot. | But the A’s still were a run to the | bad, for the Nationals had made a sec- | ond score in the fourth frame from | | g 24,000 to See Debut as Boss Beating A’s, 4-1 gled, 5o did Cronin, and Goslin doubled before Claset knew he was on the hill. | After Schulte walked, a long fly by | Bluege scored Cronin. ‘That tucked away the ball game nicely for the Cronin crew, for Al Thomas, successsor to Crowder, had pitched a nifty eighth, and he wound up with an equally nifty ninth. IVE A's made six hits during the geme, and all off Crowder in the seven innings he toiled. Cramer | was the one visitor to get as many as | two hits. Six of the Nationals' nine blows came of Freitas. Schulte got a triple and a single off the Portuguese. Cronin was the cnly National to hit both Mack hurlers. He nicked Tony for two singles, then singled off Claset in the eighth, in addition to starring afield with 10 chances faultlessly handled. Kuhel put a lot of power into his triple in the fifth. He drove the ball high against the right fleld barrier, missing a clearing homer by only a yard. ‘Washington fielding was too fast for the A's in the fourth. When his grounder was foozled by Kuhel, Coch- rane tried to make second oh the error. He was nipped by a throw to Cronin from Myer, who had backed up Kuhel Cramer attempted to make a triple of a hit to left-center right after that. only to slide into Bluege with the ball re- layed by Cronin from Schulte. OHNNY KERR pulled a fast one to grab the ball the President tossed out for the formal opening of the season. Umpires Dinneen and Hilde- brand and Nick Altrock, veteran coach, were lined up before the presidential box, each hopeful of catching the coveted sphere. As the toss was started, Kerr leaped from the Nationals’ dug- out and grabbed the ball almost out of the hands of the waiting .group. He hfltd it autographed by the President later. ‘Two players are coming back to the Nationals from the Chattanooga Look- outs, tut they won’t linger long in big company. [Ed Edelen, pitcher, and Walter Cazen. outfielder, are being re- turned. Griffith already is casting abeut for other minor berths for them. ROUND ONE TO THE EAGLE. \\/fif.

NEARLY 1000 SEE FIVE OPENING TILTS Brilliant Box Work Marks Contests in Western Sector of Majors. BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR, Associated Press Sports Writer. HE grand pageant of base ball has begun its six months’ parade through America attended by crowds only slightly smaller than those of a year ago and with & lot of very unpleasant weather to account for the decrease. Nearly 100,000 fans, ranging frong the President of the United States down to the humble holders of bleacher tickets, saw the five major league get~ away games yesterday and the displays of fine pitching that went with them. Although the total was some 20,000 lower than the 1932 opening-day at- tendance, there was no defection om the part of fandom. Rainy, cold weather, winding up in a freak April snowstorm, forced the postponement of three games along the Eastern sea= board that were expected to attract more than 70,000. Last year's figures of about 117,000 attendance covered six games. PENING day still is to come in New York, where 40,000 or more are ex< Boston, Where the Braves face the New York Giants, and in Philadelphia, where the aspire ing I:Ihmm tackle the equally hopeful lyn Dodgers. ‘With clearing weather predicted, all three delayed openings were due today.

That left the wav- of signals to Bing Miller, captain of the club. Not being so experienced, Bing couldn’t expect to wave as well as the old master. Foxx was to get here this morning to take his post at first and swing his menacing mace in the last two games of the series. McNair came with the club yesterd:y, but probably will not ap- pear in action here. Mack arrived last night and will do what waving of sig- nals there is to done. The battling during the remainder of the series should be merrier - through their presence. 'RONIN, emerging from his initial managerial test under fire with heaps of laurel wreaths adorning his 26-year-old brow, lost no time in making plans for the tussling to come. He did not have to ponder over his list of pitchers to pick the one for to- day’s set-to. “It's Whitehill,” he an- nounced without hesitation. “Earl is in as fine trim right now as any on the staff and he's the one to go out there and give us.a great game.” The boy manager contended that even with the strong-swinging Foxx, recruit pitcher in captivity, the left- | handed Dowell Claset, on the hill, and the Nationals got to this 6-foot-3 boy, weighing 228, for two runs.

As he was about to release the new horsehide, Vice President Jack Garner's 10-gallon hat popped up in front of the bevy of cameramen. “What's going on here?” cried, instinctively ducking.

He does not do his picking until shortly before game time. But newspaper men Bmccompanying the club were writing home that the left-handed Robert Moses Grove, whose fast one has brought him many heaving records, would be on the hill today. And their guess for tomorrow was George Earn- shaw, the big blonde right-hander. ‘There should be a lot of good pitch- Ing seen before the A's leave town. AKING their season bow, the Na- tionals put forth good pitching, flashed a well-placed if not an overwhelming punch and were spright- Iy afield and on the paths. Up to the time he succumbed to the chill in the northwest breeze sweeping high to steal it from the expectant paws of Umpire Hildebrand. But when Max Bishop strode to the plate to initiate play the President was forgotten. Even by Franklin D. Roose- velt, it seemed. In row 3, section C, lower grandstand, | a chunky, red-faced man, a perfect | model for cartoonists who would depict “Joe Fan,” furnished possibly the best | description of the sixth President to toss forth the first ball. “He's the kind of a man who'd enjoy | this ball game out there in those | bleachers.” ‘When Joe Cronin blasted out each of his three hits it was F. D. R. who led the applause from the presidential box. When Goose Goslin whipped a long | throw from right field to Buddy Myer | the President was the first to comment. | And when Gen. Al Crowder found Griffith Stadium. Al Crowder gave a smooth hill performance and well de- | served credit for the victory. Inci- dentally, it was the General's sixteenth successive big league pitching triumph for in setting a season record for the majors last yesr by icoring 26 wins he ran out the string with 15 straight. Frozen, Crowder tottei®d in the se enth inning and only by his own fast fielding did he stave off a threatened Whipping.

The hitting was well spread through the batting order, but it was ftting that Manager Cronin led the offensive three singles. There was enough ance in many the drives caught to reveal the great amount of power the Nationals are capable of producing when they swing. Making but one slip defensively, the club fielded smartly and the first second-to-first double play initiated by Joe Kuhel must have sitisfied onlook- ers that first base will be cared for as well as it was by Joe Judge in his palmy days. The Nationals played heads-up lbase ball and hustled every minute of the game. And they looked like a ball club that might be expected to carry on that way throughout the campaign. Batting.

HEN Connie Mack failed _ to put in an appearance at Griffith Stadium yes- terday, he missed an opening game for the first time in 50 years. He regretted not having seen his A's in action against the Nationals here, even though they were defeated, but said this morning that business of great importance prevented his attendance. Although the elderly manager of the Athletics did not mention the nature of the business, it is under- stood that it is of “great importance” not only to copa and his club, but also to major league base ball in general. Mack yesterday was in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania's State Capital, to urge Gov. Pinchot to approve the Legislature’s bill, recently passed, Ithat would make Sunday base ball in the State a matter of local option. If the bill becomes a law, Sunday games will be played in Philadelphia. and Pitisburgh, both major league cities, next year, for it is a foregone conclusion that given an opportunity « to vote on the question these munici- palities would favor Sunday play. Should the Governor not sign the bill by next Thursday it would automatically become a law. At present, however, strong influences are endeavoring subernatorial veto, ~ | whether that top-notch article the to bring about & | ITH the boss man, Connie Mack, playing politics at Harrisburg, Al Simmons, Mule Haas and Jimmy Dykes batting for Mr. Comiskey, Jimmy Foxx nursing a sore shin and Eric McNair favoring an ailing fin, most everybody's choice for third place in the American League this season looked the part. Your Uncle Griff’s mixture of young and old players played first place base ball behind General Alvin Crowder, the pitcher, but the Athletics were not the Yankees. So it remains to be seen Griffs gave yesterday really was first place stuff, or just good runner-up base ball. Whatever it was it was good enough to make Connie’s youths ap- pear to be a away from smart base ball. The Athletics’ yearlings did not have the poise in the pinch, the nerve in the test nor the judg- ment needed on the paths. Connie’s kids appeared not yet molded into the kind of base ball machine the tall fellow from Philadelphia usual- ly produces. He has a club in the making, how- ever, a sweet one. Cramer, Finney and Johnson may get moving before the midseason beil rings to prove the vet- eran manager as smart as he is labeled. Other clubs, carrying more brittle vet- erans, may sag in the middle to permit the energetic Mack youngsters to come bearing down op them. But the elephant yesterday was no tornado from Texas. Without Foxx and McNair he was a woolly lamb. Mickey Cochrane tried to make the elephant snort a few defiant bellows by daring flights on the paths, but the kids were too green to follow, with the result that a Nationals’ reception comittee always awaited them with the ball. Connie’s young men pack dynamite. | They may not explode in unison for | a few weeks, but here and there they | will pop up to catch the headlines, and | with.breaks and the luck that goes to | aggressive kids may show that, al- though they are a season away from major league polish, they can get near the top without shine and lustre. However, your Uncle Griff's layout of players as they took their positions yesterday is the busiest ball club on the lot. It never played a moment of lazy ball, it never missed a chance, and but for the nervousness which exists among players at an opening day event, would have produced a faultless brand of sport. Pass the orchids to Manager Joe Cronin, the boy pilot. He, and he alone, is responsible for the new spirit | possessed by a club that bore a rep- | utation for lacking color and punch. | | If it previously had a sock it never | showed itself. And if there hereto- | fore was color on the squad, Uncle | Clark must have kept his gray kelly lon top of it. Until this issue of the | Nationals came along, other than the | Nats of the pennant-winning years, it | was a nice, sweet ball club, with some | very fine fellows on the roster who | could hit, run and bring in runs, but rarely did it at a time when the runs meant games at critical stages of the race. Griffmen Sparkle in Opener Play Championship Ball in Debut, While A’s Show Definite Lack of Polish, dash. Tt showed it in every move in yesterday’s lid popper. It will now be young Mr. Cronin’s task to keep it afire during the lean days as well as the warm onmes. Which makes Joe's dual task greater than any other manager’s in base ball The old Nats, who boasted omly of defense, are just a memory. College Base Ball Oklahoma, 5; Missouri, 3. 1Okl:‘llmll'll.
