Anderson Hurdler, Too A track meet between University of Soutnern California ana the University of California at Berkeley went just about as expected with El Trojan winning win-ning handily. But one surprise was the performance in low hurdles turned in by Gecrge Anderson of California. Anderson, Bear captain and onetime one-time sprint champion, proved he was a great hurdler by defeating Earl Vickery, U. S. C, national collegiate champion. He's shown clearing the last barrier with Vickery directly behind him. one of Jimmy Wilson's pitching! aces with cash. We find the Cardinals loaded with question marks but we aLso find that for every problem facing fac-ing Manager Frankie Frisch he has two or three solutions. Big riddles seem to be: 1. Dizzv Than. 2.

He looked great in spring training until he contracted a cold. If Dizzy's lost some of hip blinding speed, as some say he has. that means that he'll have to use more ptching finesse and less strong aim stuff. He can do that. Last year he won 13 gamer anil -vas out more than two months. The Cards will start with Don C.utteridne. a third baseman, at shortstop. If he fails Jimmy Brown is round for insurance Mickev Owen, last year's big flop behind the bat. has come a long way and may be able to carry the brunt of the Cards' catching with the veteran Ryba and the I youngster Bremer to assist him. j Two of the finest young pitch-' pitch-' in;r prospects seen In the south j were Max Lanier and Max Macon.

Coach Floyd Millet, Mil-let, head of the B. Y. U. track team, has lined up his varsity against the freshmen. The meet will be held next Saturday afternoon after-noon at 1:30. The next three weeks are busy ones for the Cougar tracksters so the short pantied boys must round into shape quickly now. Travel to Logan 4 On April 23 the varsity travels to Logan for a dual meet with the Aggies. The following weekend week-end finds the big B. Y. U. invitational invita-tional here, with the Frosh getting get-ting their major competition then. A week later the Utah varsity comes to the "Y" stadium for a dual meet with the Cougars. Although the Frosh are confident confi-dent of winning the meet this week, from the looks of several of the veterans, the upperclass-men upperclass-men will walk off with it. So far this year the Greenlings have been kicking up the dust for the varsity to eat, but it is due to change. Several old timers who have been placing behind the Frosh in the interclass meets have come along fast the past few days and look ready to take the upstarts. up-starts. Captain Paul McBeth, who has yet to wivi his first high hurdle race this spring, is . about due -to get over a flight without tripping. Then he should gallop to a rather easy victory in the lows to cut out some more Frosh points. Jumper Improving Gordon Christensen. high juniper, junip-er, has been improving rapidly thi.s week and looks ready for a six foot jump at least. Chris has been bothered somewhat this spring with his ankle, but it is getting stronger every day. Ankle injuries have also kept Carl Clark, sophomore pole vault-er vault-er from reaching his top form thus far. Clark, although he is able to take anyone in school, even with a weak leg, has not yet reached the heights that he is capable of. Millet is anxious that he develop slowly this spring for the former North Summit state champ is a great prospect.

Carey's hitting of .450 helped Hollywood get to the top of the leagrue in the first 10 games with a percentage of .700. Los Angeles, An-geles, Seattle and Portland were in the .600 bracket, Sacramento and San Diego were in the middle with .500 each, while San Fran cisco, at .300 and Oakland, with .200 tagged behind. Lenny Babrielson, Seattle first baseman, took second place in the batting averages compiled by William Wil-liam McGee, San Francisco statistician, statis-tician, at .394. Other leaders were Rosenberg, Portland, .390; Joe Coscarart, Hollywood. ,371; and Johnny Frederick, Portland, .361. Carey was sent to Hollywood this year by the St. Louis Browns on option: Jim Chaplin of San Diego, had a perfect pitching record with two wins in two starts, in which he did not allow an earned run. Pippen of Sacramento, Ballou of San Francisco, Turpin of Seattle, and Babich of Hollywood, also had two-game perfect records but had not pitched as tight baseball as Chaplin, who was also the leading pitcher early in the season last year. Tuesday's games matched Sah Francisco at San Diego and Seattle at Los Angeles in the afternoon, while Hollywood at Sacramento and Portland at Oakland Oak-land were scheduled for night games.

Provo Softball Teams To Begin League Play May 16; Schedules Made Local Leagues May Be Limited to Six Teams This Year; Old Contenders To Be Back Three city softball leagues open their 1938 campaigns on May 16. This date was set last night at a meeting of representatives from the Commercial and Recreational divisions. Members of the Elders league did not attend the meeting which was in charge of Reed "Lob" Collins, Col-lins, city recreational director. Reports from managers of these teams indicate that they Will stick to the same rules as set up by the I other leagues. Five Teams Report Five teams were lined up for play in each league at last night's meet. Scheduling of games will not be made until additional teams have made applications for joining join-ing in city play, Collins said. It is probable that both the Recreational and Commercial leagues will be made up of only six teams this year. Tnis would shorten playing nights if it is decided to play on the city's lighted softball field. Teams already in are: Commercial Com-mercial league Bureau of Reclamation, Recla-mation, Provo CCC, Piggly Wiggly, State' Hospital and Oscar Os-car Carlsons. Recreation league General Shop, Leven's, Sunshine Cafe, Bennett's and Pacific Super Heaters. New Outfit Strong The Bureau of Reclamation is a new outfit tout is given a good chance of finishing up near the top of Commercial play. Provo CCC and State Hospital are the two strongest teams in this division. di-vision. In the fast Recreation league it looks like another merry battle. bat-tle. These boys go out for "blood" and of the city leagues this is the fastest. General Shop, last year's Commercial Com-mercial champs, have revamped their winning outfit and are out for the higher title. Manager George BilLs is feeling optimistic about his team's chances of going go-ing up in the faster league. Pacific Super Heaters, Sunshine and Leven's always put fast teams into the competition.

May Ine Lights Possibility of using the lights at North park was considered last night. A committee composed com-posed of Claude Larson, Verl Van Wagenen, Delbert Tregeagle, George Bills, Heber Dow and Viv Billings was appointed to contact con-tact the city commission in an effort to have the city go the expense ex-pense of the lighting. It was held that a good percentage percent-age of the people of Provo take part in the softball games, either as contestants or as spectators. All league games will tie played under the national softball rules, it was decided. Contests will start at 6:20 in the evening, with the forfeit time set at 6:30. Recreation games are scheduled for each Tuesday and Friday, and Commercial contests will be played play-ed on Mondays and Thursdays. Postponed games of the first half must be played by June 25; for the second half - by August 5. Regular league play will end early in August so that there will be plenty of time to play off the city championship before the county coun-ty and state meets. Willard Thinks Ross, Ambers Can Defeat Armstrong SALT LAKE CITY. April 11 a .!! Jess Willard, the man mountain moun-tain who once ruled the heavyweight heavy-weight division, believes Barney Ross and Lou Ambers will have little trouble in defeating Henry Armstrong, the belting Negro from Los Angeles. "Armstrong is too easy to hit and I think he is fighting along on a colossal tuild-up at the present pres-ent time," Willard said. "Barney Ross, a really great scrapper, and Lightweight Champion Lou Ambers Am-bers will not have much trouble to wallop the daylights out of him." Leadership , - . .... .. . . . .. .... .. |
