SPORTS Nats’ Table Set for Tiger Me BY JOHN B. KELLER. UR old friend Stanley— O maybe it’s Bucky to you— Harris is in town with his Tigers, which may mean that the Nationals have a fair chance to get somewhere in the current home stand against the Western clubs of the Amerigan League. To date, the Cronin crew has moved at only a .500 gait in Grif- fith Stadium in tussling with rep- resentatives of the inland sector. Out in Detroit, though, it licked the Tigers in two of three games‘ the Harris horde | and at pres seems the poc.vst of the Western lot. Since coming East, the Tigers have won only once. They managed to take one of the three engagements they had with the Red Sox in Boston. In both of their games with the Yankees in New York they were defeated Losing yesterday to the Red Sox, the Tigers fell back to seventh place. Per- haps they'l] ing mood during their s Capital The Nationals, though, haven't spread themselves lately. ‘They've been trounced in three of their last four games. Over this stretch their defense was wabbly ourn in the and their hitting nothing to prattle | about. They batted for only .246 in the four tilis—and that after starting their home stand with & whale of a 27-hit aflair Manager Joe Cronin has Whitehill and Stewart, the left-handers, ready for the Tigers measure of Harris' club out in Detroit. Maybe Cronin will risk sending Thomas to the hill in one of the games. He still is hopeful of getting something good out of Tommy as a starter. TIGER team little different from that watched by the fans here last year will be seen in the three- game scries in Griffith Stadium. The only really new member of the regular caste is Ervin—Petey for short—Fox, who is handling the center field job that Gerald Walker cared for the greater part of the '32 campaign. Fox is very | fast afoot, a fine fiyhawk, a sturdy thrower and a likely-looking batter. Walker has been moved over to left field. at which position Manager Har- ris tried him during the Tigers' final series here last year. Walker wasn't s0 good in left then, but he has im- proved since Jack Stone, switched from left fleld to right, plaved Tegularly with the| Tigers until recently. Now Harris has| Joyner White in right field. Like Stone, White is a left-hand hitter. His aver- | age last year was not so good as Stone's, but Stone fell off in attack this season. Thus far there hasn't been much hit- ting strength displayed by the Tige Nor have they been good defensive Erratic fielding, especially in the inner cordon, has hurt them considerably. And’ the Tiger pitchers have been rather disappointing, too. Tommy Bridges has hurled well much of the time, but has been a victim of poor support,_often. Fred Marberry, former National and still a great favorite here, has been unable to make any shining Tecord with his new club. Carl Fischer, another ex-National, who jumped from here to the Tigers by way of the Browns, has been soundly bumped. Schoolboy Rowe, the young Arkansas henom of whom much was expected, as had an indifferent season because ©f an ailing arm. There has been much to make the going rough for the Tigers. ARRIS now is in his fifth season with the Tigers. and the Pittston, Pa, product, who as “boy man- ager” led the Nationals to two pennants and a world championship, has yet to land the Detroit club in the first di- vision. The Tigers finished sixth in '29. the first year Bucky managed them. In '30 they got as high as fifth, dropped back to seventh in '31 and last year again finished fifth. Harris has worked just as earnestly with the Tigers as ever he did with the Nationals. But a manager can't make @ great ball club out of material nothing more than average in quality. Bucky still has the old fire, he still is the keen base ball student he was in his Wash- i 5. The Detroit ownership. giving him much with 1d dreary days for Harris. gh his old pals on the N tionals want to see him get along noth- ing would please them more than to add to his misery while his club is in our midst.

N ship, thought to have been at the mercy of Mrs. Silas B. Mason's Head Play, now is a wide-open affair as a result of Head Play’s disappointing .show- ing in the Wood Memorial at Jamaica Saturday. The Wood was run over & mile and 70 yards, much shorter distance than either the Preakness or the Kentucky Derby, with Head Play giving weight to three Tivals, but the way he ran either Mrs. James M. Austin’s Mr. Khayyam, the winner, or H. C. Phipps’ De Valera, BY ORLO ROBERTSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, May 22—The 3- year-old turf champion- BY JOHN B. FOSTER. | TANLEY HARRIS, here with his Tigers to open a series against the Griffmen today, when he is dignified and be- ing interviewed, thinks the Yan- kees will win the American League pennant again this year. The Detroit manager promises to give the Yanks as much opposition as | | possible, but he realizes as well‘ | as the next one the utter impos- | | sibility of trying to beat four aces | with a full house or anything of | lesser caliber. Tt seems to me,” said Bucky, re- | flectively, “that I didn't claim very much for the Tigers this year. Why | should I? I didn’t claim anything out of reason last year, either.” | “What makes you think the Yankees have such an excellent chance to win?” | SO/TTHEY have perfect confidence in each other and in the team as a whole. Now, take Ben Chapman as an example. I don't believe that any- one in base ball, and that includes all of his team mates, thought he would be one of the leading batters of the the second-place horse, could have con- | ceded weight to the Kentucky colt and still led him to the judges' stand. At the finish Head Play was seven lengths back of Mr. Khayyam and De Valera by four. Both Mrs. Mason and Trainer Tomr Hayes naturally were disappointed at| the colt’s showing. but they announced | they would go ahead with the schedule | planned. The colt was to leave Jamaica today for Chicago, where he will go into training for the $25,000 American Derby at Washington Park June 3. Other im- mediate engagements include the La- | tonia Derby the latter part of June and the $35,000 classic at Arlington Park in uly. TH Head Play not eligible for either the Withers or the Bel- mont Stakes and not many of the | crack Eastern 3-year-olds expected to g0 West for the American Derby, the Arlington Classic now shapes up as the race in which the division's champion- ship will be decided definitely.

He went from doctor to doctor finally to dis- | cover the trouble was not in his arm, |but in his back.

HE St. Louis Cardinals ap- pear either to have found a bunch of easy victims in the Eastern clubs of the National League or they must be regarded as the up and coming club of the circuit. It may be the acquisition of Leo Durocher to plug a weak spot in their inner defense and the stf\rt of Pepper Martin’s great hitting streak was just what the Cards needed to send them off on the victorious path. The fact remains that since they be- gan playing the Eastern teams about three weeks ago they have won 12 games lost six and have risen from seventh place in the standing to third. A double triumph over the New York Giants yesterday, 2 to 1 and 8 to 4, left them just & half game behind the second place New Yorkers and three and a half games behind the pace set- ting Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh, coupled with Boston, had an off day. Bill Hallahan allowed only two hits, both by Johnny Vergez, in yesterday’s opening duel with Carl Hubbell, and Martin scored one run and drove in the other. The Cards put the second game away early, pounding Fred Fitzsimmons for a 4-1 lead in two innings. Brooklyn Dodgers, recent hold- ers of third, dropped to fifth place by the sudden comeback of ‘the Chicago Cubs, who beat them twice, 7-6 and 6-3, to run their string to four straight victories.
