Show CARDINALS TO . GIVE REDBIRDS HEATED BATTLE - BY GEORGE KlRKSEY . NEW' YORK, April .5 U.ro-The U.ro-The National league is a pitcher's league and the Cincinnati Reds have the pitching. That's .the main reason why Bill McKechnie's club will win again and become the first team to' repeat in the senior circuit since the Giants copped the Xlag in 1936-37. It's going to be another red-hot race with four and perhaps five other clubs making gestures at the prize. The Reds won with 97 victories in 1939. They'll have a stronger club this ; season but they won't win as many games because the league will be better balanced. Cardinals Touted t - Cincinnati's main opposition should come from the St. .Louis Cardinals. They have the makings mak-ings of a pennant winner but they may be a year or more away.

If both flop, then McKechnie still has Berger, and won't be any worse off than he was "a year ago. Some critics have judged the Reds on their world series show.-ing show.-ing against the Yanks.

The fact that twice this winter the Notre Dame - - graduate set world 1 indoor marks for three miles and a new standard for the two mile, is a tribute to Nicholson's Nichol-son's vision " . ' WON N.

TWO-MILK ins SECOND TIME OUT An Olympic hurdler two decades ago, Nicholson' saw, in' the tiny Rice amazing stamina, but realized his short legs could never produce the speed needed for the mile.

Rice still prefers pre-fers to run the. mile but bows to the logic of his development. Rice was hardly in a Madison Square Garden shower after uncovering un-covering his awesome kick to beat Don Lash and Taiato Maki the other night in 13:52.3, when critics gathered in his dressing room to analyze his combination of stamina stam-ina and stature. v v; ; . :' - Charley Hoyt, now at Yale after his Michigan teams - cleaned up for years in the Big Ten,' agreed with Archie Hahn that much of Rice's secret lies in his size. "Because he's so small he's able to keep perfect balance. - His rhythm" Mperfect. Taller taien jtiaye a tendency. to have a lot or waste motion," Hoyt points ouu .

' "Just two year that's all ' Hell make everyone forget that distance men ever came from Finland. He's far from his peak. Tm not being over-enthusiastic over-enthusiastic when I say some day he'll run three miles in 13:42. "1 believe ' Greg Is capable of beating Maki, or any of those gents, at six or even 10 miles." Rice combines' the Finnish and American styles. The Finns prefer pre-fer - to rate themselves evenly. They figure if you have enough left for a spring at the end you haven't been running fast enough throughout, .
