The SPORTLIGHT Joe's Bad Knee Makes Yankees Big Gamble By GRANTLAND RICE. Special Correspondent of The Star. As the budding month of May breaks into the greenery of the seéenery, it is becoming evident that the Yankees of 1940 are not going t do as much league wrecking this season as they did the last four years. Y In the first place, if Joe Di Maggio has ligament trouble around the knee, he may be & doubtful quan- tity for some time to come. The knee happens to be the main leg hinge where ligaments absorb a large part of the'shock. And Joe Di Maggio means more to the Yankees than one might imagine. When you remove a .385 hitter, one of the leading home-run punchers and one of the best of all defensive outfielders, you are losing something no team can afford to lose—not even the Yankees. The odds are that Di Maggio will be working in a short while, but he sfill will be a gamble. A wounded knee always is a gamble. Ask any good trainer. Yankees' Rivals Tired Of Repeated Beatings Here is another angle one of the rival managers gave out recently. “For the last four yeass,” he said, “most of us have taken it for grant- ed that the Yankees couldn't be stopped. They were just too good. Partly for this reason too many of our teams were beaten before a Yankee game started. But you get tired of taking too many beatings. They begin to leave a deeper sting. This season you'll find most of the teams out to beat the Yankees, hustling harder than they ever have before. “This can make a lot of difference. Especially as the Yankees, after four | big years, won't have the same Keenness. They can't have. It isn't Human nature. +“I remember hearing Ty Cobb g4y once that three or four years of sgccess was about all any ball club c#n carry. This doesn't mean the kees can't win again. But it dees mean we should have a real réice this season, and just a little more bad luck might easily bring eyen the Yankees right back to the k.” ms’ Spirit Believed Help to Dodgers This matter of team spirit brings uf alongside the Dodgers. I asked Larry MacPhail how he accounted for that wild and woolly getaway the Dodgers put on this season. ~*Hustling and spirit,” Larry said. Y. honestly think we have 25 per mt more spirit than any team in seball. f“We haven't a great team as far as-playing personnel goes. hive a hustling manager and a hygstling bunch of fellows who keep on their toes from start to finish, “Yes, I've been around quite a le,” Larry continued. “But I iven't seen any better spirit in efther baseball or football than Brooklyn has this year. We have a gitat city back of us, one of the greatest baseball cities in the history of the game. When you can draw more than a million people with a team trying to finish third, and just making it, you can understand the type of fan we have on our side. Don't forget that means a lot.” Brooklyn, Detroit Rated Best Baseball Cities The two best baseball cities in the country are Brooklyn and Detroit. They win—going away.

Vikings Keep Slate Clean, Perch Atop School Series Roosevelt Is Impressive, Western Is Defeated In ‘Outside’ Games A fifth major league team today was stalking the trail of Central High's Shortstop Benny Steiner and Pitcher Bill Fisher, instrumen- tal factors in the Vikings’ perch atop the interhigh baseball series heap. Zinn Beck, Detroit Tigers’ scout, sat in on the 13-3 walloping Cen- tral dealt Eastern yesterday at Eastern Stadium and saw Steiner collect three hits, steal two bases and score two runs and Fisher allow only five hits while fanning 15. A composite’ view of what those youngsters have accomplished in Central's five games reveals Steiner batting an astonishing .609 and Fisher fanning 43 in 23 innings, vielding only eight hits and allow- ing only four walks and three runs. It hasn't harmed them in the eyes of the Red Sox, Yankees, Pirates, Tigers or Nats, all interested in them. Takes Big Early Lead. Central's undefeated outfit, which now has rolled over Briarley Mili- tary Academy, Woodrow Wilson, Georgetown Frosh and George Washington High in addition to Eastern, wasted little time spurting into a lead over the Lincoln Park- ers, scoring five runs in the first two innings. Warren Erhardt, who recently hurled a creditable game against Tech, was pounded hard by the Vik- ings and left the scene after the sec- ond inning. Kenny Deavers and Lefty Curles succeeded him on the mound. Zello Lagos, Central left fielder. also smashed three hits, while Gabby Hayes and Ira Hoffman each got two for Eastern.* Anacostia, which dropped a close game to Tech recently, will meet Eastern tomorrow in a series game postponed from April 19. The game will be played at Anacostia Stadium and will start at 3:30 o'clock. | Central AB. Eastern.

For the first time it sports a bang- up club embracing pitchers through- out the Metropolitan Area and an or- ganization cohesive enough to super- vise the sport. In a meeting in The Star sports department, the National Capitol Horseshoe Club was formed with Harold 8. Ronning as president; Ed Baronoski, vice president and Walter N. Haley, secretary and treasurer. Harry Woodfield Honored. Harry Woodfield, promotional director of the now defunct Wash- ington-Suburban Horseshoe Pitchers | Association, at its best a loosely knit affair, was named honorary presi- dent of the new club and will carry on as promotional director. President Ronning named the fol- lowing committee to form rules and by-laws: Sanford Stoddard, chair- man; Harry Woodfield, Ed Bar- anoski, Tom Collins and Charles Howery. Prime mover in the or- ganization of the club was Stoddard. The initiation fee was set at $1 and the dues 25 cents a month for the duration of the season, includ- ing May, June, July and August. High light of the season will be the annual Evening Star champion- ships, in which the club will have an important hand. Officers All Livewires. Virtually every horseshoe pitching leader in the Metropolitan area at- tended the meeting, by far the most enthusiastic yet held by the ringer flippers. Every officer named is a livewire with pronounced executive | ability. They will swing into action not waiting until the next meeting, May 16 at The Star sports department, to draw up plans for the season's competition. This | promises to be exceptionally inter- | esting, what with an influx of new |talent. ~ Several stars from other | cities, it is reported, have moved to Washington since last season. Encouraging to the flippers was the announcement at the organiza- | tion meeting by Galt Davis, Rosslyn !bowling promoter, that he plans the | installation of a set of lighted courts |along with a cross-bow range at Colonial Village. iRudy> Dusek Grapples Terror as Mat Clan Invades Riverside Wrestling and the Rudy Dusek troupe invade Riverside Stadium | tonight with the Golden Terror (nee Roy Weatherly) engaging Rudy | himself in the main bout.

Another Scout Sees Steiner, Fisher Shine for Central in Beating Eastern Griffs Justify Ballyhoo as Base Thieves Swipe Seven in Four Games Against Star Catchers; Garner Keen Fan three rups, drove four across, stole third base and handled two drives in the outfield—he walked into the dressing room and smack into the hands of a process serv- er. He was served a summons involving & man of whom he never heard, Gerry says. He sus- pects a prank by his teammates. The reason that Catcher Jake Early didn’'t catch yesterday— and face the rignt-handed slants of Tommy Bridges—is that Bucky Harris made him come out in the morning and practice throwing to bases. Jake has the arm, all right, but he’s slow in getting his heaves away. He may be back in there today because Harris, while not excited over his catch- ing, likes to see the guy at the plate. Jakey can hit in his book. Clark Griffith says that Barney McCosky, Tiger center fielder, is the first left-handed hitter who has come up in the last five years who can hit southpaws as well as right-handers. George Case was booed when, in the third inning, he raced up on McCosky's terrific liner and it shot over his head for a home run inside the park. It was George's first mistake of the year. Previously, he had made a couple of putouts that no other center fielder—because they lack Case’s sheer speed—could have made. The guy deserves a break. F. E. 8. 6. W.
