RYLAND, “Old Line State” of the turf, now is trying to save game, with legislators in Penn- and Dm ct of Columbia weighing racing bills, after Delaware has already passed one. Meanwhile, Maryland legislators seek further to burden their tracks with taxation. Texas, stronghold of the sport in the Southwest, is trying to outlaw the mutuels, with Oklahoma and other | neighboring States hoping for the worst, so that they can legalize racing and get the revenue away from Texas, Agua Caliente backers, having once “given up the ghost.” now are envious of California’s success and plan reopen this Summer.

No doubt if the bill is passed by the Legislature | Hialeah will support one set of can- | didates and Tropical Park another. Yet they say “keep racing out of politics.” | Racing is, and always will be, more or less mixed in politics. The game is too big and the re- turns too great for it to be, from the State Legislatures right up to the Nation’s Capital. Which reminds us that there probably will be no badges issued for Benning this season and that the bill in Texas, putting mutuels out of business after June 1, is tied up in & way in the Senate and has a Chinaman's chance of not passing, in spite of strenuous efforts by the Governor of the Lone Star State.

There | will be six races on the flat and one jumping race each day, but the worth- while item is that the mutuel “take” will only be 3 per cent. This is a record, or will be. With a 3 per cent “take” the public has a chance. In Maryland when a badge is given the track and State each ask a tax. The | mutuels get the rest. Spring has arrived and Bowie only 10 days away.

RLANDO, Fla., March 22— The name of Clif Bolton and the term A. W. O. L. are synonomous again. ‘The sore-armed catcher, who asked permission to be treated at Banford by Lee Jensen, Chatta- nooga trainer, has disappeared again. He was to have reported to the Lookouts' camp on Saturday, but at an early hour this morning he still was missing. Clark Griffith has an idea that Clif went home again. He adds, furthermore, that he doesn't care much. He's fed up. Buddy Lewis did not know what a bunt was a year ago, or until he started to watch Buddy Myer lay 'em down. When the 1936 season ended he was touted by Manager Bucky Harris as the best bunter in the American League. Yesterday, against the pmme’,\ Buddy did a good job of proving Bucky’'s point. In the second in- ning he pulled a running drag bunt that was marked hit all the way. OU are throwing money away if you bet on the Phillies to finish anywhere except in the Na- tional League. That, at least, is what the scribes attached to the team insist. Incidentally, that was the impression that was received yesterday. For a team that was beaten, 15-17, the Phillies probably did more squawking than any team in his- tory. When Passeau walked Myer in the third inning Manager Jimmy Wilson and almost the entire Philly club protested the pitch called by Umpire Lou Kolls. Lou finally quieted things by warning the Phillies’ bench, once and for all, that at the next peep he would clear it. THE Phils now have played three exhibition games and lost all. Still they accomplished something against the Nats. They broke a streak of 19 scoreless innings when @ run was shoved across in the third inning. In previous games the Phils were beaten by Brooklyn, 6 to 0, and by the Bees, 6 to 1. The Griffs in the second inning pulled one of the queerest plays they’ll make all year. With Johnny Moore on second base, Pinky Whit- ney slammed a hard grounder be- tween Joe Kuhel and Buddy Myer. The first baseman failed to reach it with his glove, but the ball struck his foot, caromed into the air to Myer, and Kuhel hustled to first base and got Buddy's throw for the putouts | the SPORTS.

OWIE, Md., March 20.—Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, America's leading money winning owner in 1935 and runner-up last year, will campaign a powerful string, including Airflame and Balking, joint holders of the world three-eighths record of 0:22, during the nine-day Bowie meeting, which opens April 1.

LAKELAND, Fla.—Detroit’s Tigers saw a possible regular pitcher today in Paul (Dizzy) Trout, rookie, after his no-hit performance in three in- nings against the Boston Red Sox. Trout, a right-hander, walked two men, Western (Continued From Page A-12)) but Western’s three other players all displayed unusual ability. George 8chulze, in particular, was one of the stars of the tournament, while Paul Heil and Hop Lomax rounded out a smooth-working club with smooth per- formances. Speaking of individual bits, St. John's Joey Gallagher played one of the great games of the tournament. Despite his stature—he hardly reaches to the shoulders of his colleagues—he was all over the floor, both on offense and defense. St. John’s captain, Jim Giebel, also proved a Rock of Gibral- tar, steady as clockwork and a poised leader. Jack Reges slumped only in the final game due to & knee injury.

And Buck, while not the greatest pitcher in base ball, is %ood enough to get away with a brand of monkey business that tries the soul of Griff. Those who profess to know pitchers insist that Syd Cohen will have a big year. trial, but if the elderly rookie southpaw comes through he will be another of Griff's prize “junk-pile” picks. 'Way back, Syd was turned down by the Tigers and he toured the minors with- out too much success. Last, but perhaps not least, is big Jack Salveson. Back in 1932 and 1933 he was a skinny, 145-pound 6-footer with the Giants. Terry said he had no fast ball and traded him to Pittsburgh. The Pirates said the same thing and on went Jack to the White Sox. Lo and behold, Chicago cut him loose for the same reason and sent him to Los Angeles. Out there he won 21 games, lost 7, gained enough weight to tip the scales at over 200 pounds, and yester- that he was puh-lenty fast. Nobody Loved the Fat Man. RIFF got other players the same way. When Bill Terry told Buddy Lewis that he wouldn't do, the 'kid was picked up by a Washington “farm” and now Griff’s price for him is $150,~ 000—which means that he isn't for sale. Johnny Mihalic blossomed un- appreciated under the very noses of the Indians and now he promises to be a very useful utility man for the Griffmen. ‘Two of the three catchers also were lifted off the scrap heap. Nobody loved fat man Hogan last August when he weighed something like 280 pounds. The Giants got rid of him and so did the Braves. All clubs waived on Shanty, who finally got a job with the lowly Albany club. Necessity drove ‘Washington to get Shanty. He is here now, weighing 235 pounds and a very valuable chattel. It was just a year ago that Wash- ington, desperate for an understudy for Clif Bolton, bought Walter Millies from Brooklyn for $5,000. All the National League clubs waived on Walter and Bucky Harris accepted him with fingers crossed. But Millies, it develops, has won the respect of his teammates and bosses. He batted .315 last year, caught ac- ceptable ball and appears to be im- proving daily. He is not for sale at thrice $5,000.
