Manush Stick Star. BY JOHN B. KELLER, Staff Correspondent of The Star. OSTON, Mass., April 27.—Their bats playing a merry tune on Red Sox pitching, the Na- tionals made it two straight over the Cronin-led band today by banging out an 8-to-3 victory before Fenway Park’s week-end crowd of more than 14,000 Seventeen safeties rattled off the bats wielded by the Harris hands, the greatest display of hitting power made | by the Washington Club in this young campaign. Heinie Manush with four singles to show for his six trips to the plate led the onslaught in which every one of the Nationals in action, excepting Leon Pettit, participated. But there was enough glory for Pettit in the scoring of his first major league victory. The spare southpaw brought up from the Chatta. >ga farm only this year relieved the un- steady Eddie Linke in the fourth in- ning when the Nationals were only a run to the good and hurled smartly to the finish. Only two of the eight hits recorded by the Red Sox were made at the left- hander’s expense and one of these hits was exceedingly scratchy. He pitched to only a score of batters in his five and two-thirds innings on the hill. Two passes were given by Pettit and once a Boston batter got on the runway by virtue of a fielder’s choice. Get Even With Welch. HE Washington hitting was done off Jack Welch, righthander, who ‘W70 only the week before had blanked the Nationals with four hits on their home lot, and Fritz Ostermueller, who last year was a thorn in the sides| of the Capital clubmen then led by the present Red Sox pilot. Welch went seven innings to be hit in all excepting one and to be beaten before the game was four innings old. Eight safe raps in the first three rounds sent him to defeat. of the last two innings Ostermueller managed to get two batters out of the way before the Nationals found the | Pplate. | . Again the Red Sox were sloppy | afield. Four errors were charged | against them and every one figured in | the run-making done by the Nationals Linke, starting a game for the first time this year, was hit freely in his short term on the hill. In each of the first two frames the Nationals staked | the rotund right-hander to a lead, but | promptly he blew his advantages. ‘When Mel Almada opened the fourth with a double driven down the right field line, Manager Harris hustled Pettit to the warm-up pen, and after | Babe Dahlgren, the Boston rookie, had rolled out, the Washington portsider was ordered to the hill to take care of the left-hand swingers due to bat for the Red Sox. Werber Fans Three Times. \HE Chattanooga farm product did that admirably and deftly dis- posed of the right-hand batters as well. Of the five strike-outs recorded by Pettit, three were made at the ex- pense of Bill Werber, Washington suburbanite who swings from the right side. It was a single by Stone that blazed the way to the first Washington run. A bobble by Bishop gave Manush a life and after Kuhel fouled out, Travis drove a double high against the left field barrier to get Stone home. The Red Sox immediately countered, | due to a pass given Werber. Roy John- son’s best was a bounce to Kuhel, but Cronin acknowledged the cheers of the stands by winging a long single to left center to drive Werber across. Two were out in the second session | before the Nationals got those two tallies on Stone’s teasing tap in front of the plate. Linke singled and so did | Myer. A fumble of the second slap | by Solters put the runners on third | and second bases. Then Stone beat out the puny hit to score Linke, and Myer, never hesitating at third, raced home while the Red Sox were protesting the decision at the initial sack. Again, however, the Red Sox came right back to even the count. Solters and Almada greeted Linke with singles and Dahlgren sacrificed. Welch's erasure got Solters over and Bishop rifled a two-bagger along the right field line to register the second run of the round. Cronin Helps Griffs. f A~ WILD heave by Cronin enabled the Nationals to get the lead once more in the third. Bolton forced Travis, who made his second hit, but in trying for a double play the Red Sox shortstop chucked far past first. The error put Bolton on second, from where he tallied when Lary drove a hit by Cronin. Three singles in the fifth inning got the Harris hands their fifth score. XKuhel hit and so did Bolton after ‘Travis was clipped in a close play. Powell then drove a hit under Werber and Kuhel crossed. ‘Two more Washington markers were chalked up in the eighth after the lefthanded Ostermueller had disposed of the first two batters. Manush got his third single and took second when Rick Ferrell let a pitch get away be- fore Kuhel drew a pass. Travis then banged his second two-bagger against the left-field barrier. This enabled Manush to score easily, but Kuhel got home from first only because the catcher dropped Werber’s relay of the throw from the outfield. Again in the ninth Ostermueller was good until he got two out. Then Myer strolled to be shoved home by singles slipping from the bats of Stone and Manush. ALLISON TRIMS HALL.

AMBRIDGE, Mass., April 27.— Princeton’s revamped varsity eight, stroking smoothly and easily as it led throughout, gained its third consecutive Compton Cup regatta victory today by leading Harvard by a length and a quarter and M.

Most of Princeton's victor- ious journey, however, was made at a much slower pace. Tigers were clocked at 32 as the pulled away steadily from their tw rivals, who were dipping oars much faster. The winning varsity time was 9:223-5, which probably indicated that the current was much stronger along the new stretch, which crosses the river at an angle, than on the old straight-away route, which had a record of just under 9 minutes for the mile and three quarters.

Werber Fans Three Times in Spicy Feud With Pettit Teammates Lead Bill From Field When Third Whiff Ends Game—Harris Is Keen Guesser. By a Staff Correspondent. OSTON, Mass.. April 27.— There’s a new feud in the American League. Leon Pettit, Griff southpaw slabman and Bill Werber, Wash- ington high school product third- basing for the Red Sox, are at daggers’ points. 1t all started today as the Harris hands took the measure of the Cronin crew. It was in the fifth inning of the game. Werber was leading off and Pettit, who had relieved Eddie Linke only the inning be- fore, threw a third strike past Bill. The batter didn’t believe ‘Umpire Dineen, but of course lost the argument. “You lucky stiff (but it wasn't stiff Werber said) when I.get up here the next time Il pin your ears back,” Werker angrily yelled to the pitcher. B The next time was in the seventh inning. And Werber swung for a third strike to end the round. “Where’s that pin you were going to use on my ears?”’ was Pettit’s jeering query. It took Umpire Dineen and Man- ager Cronin to prevent further passage at words or else. Up came Werber again in the ninth. Two were out and & Red Sox runner on second. Again Bill swung for the third strike. His teammaies led him off the field, frothing at the mouth. Looks as if Bucky Harris wasn't making the wish father of the thought back in Philadelphia when he remarked that the Nationals were due to take the Red Sox in the series here. One to go today and the Capital Club will have a sweep of the set, just as Cronin and his cohorts succeeded in Wash- ington. Harris has been experimenting with his batting order and his pitching, too, since quitting the home lot. Thus far his judgment has proved sound. Travis, lowered from the second to the fifth place in the batting order today, banged three hits. And Stone, lifted from sixth to second in the list, got three. And in picking Pettit to relieve Linke, the manager made a great selection. . Advance sales indicated an at- tendance of at least 25,000 at Fenway Park tomorrow “or the first Sunday game for the Red Sox here this season, which is some break for the Washington treasury after the Nationals were rained out at home Easter and the poor cut they got in Philadelphia. ‘Wesley Ferrell, who was mighty lucky to get away with his game in ‘Washington & week ago, is Manager Cronin’s overnight pitching choice for the Sunday slabbing. He will oppose Bump Hadley, twice a starter and twice a victor for the Harris hands. : Right after the Sunday game th Nationals will head for New York, where on Monday they will enter their first series with the Yankees this year. Bob Burke, stringbean southpaw, will start the hurling for the Washington crew in the initial encounter with Joe McCarthy's uncertainties. Some come-back the Nationals have staged since taking those three lickings from the Red Sox in Griffith Stadium. Four victories in five games have them all on their toes. Those Boston fans were fairer to week-end setto. Joe has the break coming to him. He is not to blame for the clash of the talent he has at his command. At that Cronin has socked the Washington slab- men for a fine average in the five games he has faced them. Against the Nationals, Joe has hit for a . And his eight hits have lnc!ged two doubles and as many first frame missed by four feet of being a homer. It landed far up against the left fleld fence. Looked as if Myer in the sixth had stolen second cleanly before Cronin turned to tag the slider. But Umpire Kolls said “no.” The Boston rooters did not believe the official and booed him generously. tances, but gained a three-and-a-half- rtell. length victory over the M. I T. 150-pounders in a Henley distance race. Bill Haine’s Engineers trailed in every one of the four events. After the Harvard freshmen de- feated Princton by two and a half w: lengths in 9:32, and Tech by three and a quarter, the Crimson “Jayvees,” after rowing second for three-quarters of a mile, put on enough pressure to beat out Princeton by two lengths and M. I. T. by five and a half. It was Harvard's first start of the season and, despite the fact that D. Roosevelt, jr., the 20- year-old son of the President, and his four sophomore classmates, rowed like veterans, Charlie Whiteside's varsity showed no more sprinting ability than its recent predcessors.

S. U. Bows to Manhattan in Classic Mile Race. Major Marks Intact. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. HILADELPHIA, April 27.— Co- lumbie University's flashy speed kings and Michigan State’s sturdy distance run- ners, achieving twin-victory goals while Louisiana State fell short of a similar objective, brought the forty- first Pennsylvania relay carnival to a smashing conclusion today before a crowd of 30,000 spectators and under perfect weather conditions at historic Franklin Field. Columbia’s sprinters added the 880- yard relay championship to the quar- ter-mile crown, dethroning Cornell in each race, thanks to the brilliant work of S8am Maniaci and Ben Johnson, negro holder of the national indoor dash title. Similarly, Michigan State’s quartet of milers, starring Tom Ottey and Wesley Hurd, made a runaway of the four-mile championship in today's final after capturing the distance medley trophy the day before. Facing a stiffer task by doubling up in two of today’s feature relays, Louisiana State’s gallant runners were stopped by Manhattan College in the classic one-mile race after winning the two-mile championship. The Tigers, with Black, O'Neil and “Slats” Hardin carying the baton in both events, whipped Army and Columbia in the two-mile, but Hardin’s closing quarter in 47.4 seconds was only good enough to cut in half the starting margin of Manhattan’s runner, John Wolff, who broke the tape 12 yards in front of Hardin. Records Remain Intact. O RECORDS were broken in the major nhy;u, where a complete new crop of eight championshi, teams was crowned. 3 e Eulace Peacock, Temple's versatile Negro athlete, furnished the day’s most spectacular double by capturing the broad jump with a leap of 25 feet % inch and then upsetting Herman Neugass, Tulane sensation, in the record-breaking final to the 100-meter dash. Peacock, who had tied the carni- val mark of 10.7 seconds in the semi- finals, pulled away from Neugass in the final drive to win by two yards in the new record time of 10.6 seconds. The former record-holder and 1934 winner, Earl Widmyer of Maryland, finished fourth, also trailing Arvel Fleming of Pittsburgh. Neugass, who has been clocked in 94 for 100 yards this Spring, easily captured two preliminary heats in 10.8 seconds, but faded in the closing stages of the final after running at Peacock’s shoulder for three-fourths of the distance.
