Vikings bye The Callies and Vikings recorded victories Sunday in the spring soccer league to remain tied for first place in the standings The Callies trailing 1 to 2 at the end of the flgst half put

spirited conflict Hollandia Proteats The game was played under protest the latter club maintaining that Mason outside right on the Viking eleven was signed earlier in the season to play for the Callies The protest will be submitted to league officials at the next regular meeting The games Sunday were slowed up considerably by a brisk wind which whipped across the field making side shots extremely difficult Added to this difficulty was treacherous footing recent snowt having made the field soggy particularly near the goal posts Hollandia opened its game against the Vikings in auspicious fashion Trauffer counting a goal midway in the first half Alf Engen tied up the count a short time later with a long shot from the center and as soon as the full team took the field the issue was never In doubt Rulon Arveseth tallied the winning goal In the second half Brant Hollandia goalie played a brilliant game making a number of fine stops when it appeared certain that the winners were on their- way to additional scores Teutonia Starts Well Teutonia swept into action with an attack which appeared strong enough to overcome the touted Cal-li- e defense but the attack

Athletics They were merely taking a breathing spell when Washington stole a pair of ribbons in 1924 and 1925 The Cards on the other hand have operated year after year against three powerful clubs They’ve never been able to rest pn their oars Weaker financially than the Giants and Cubs they must cudgel their wits unsparingly to stay alive The St Louis National league franchise is one which pays dividends only for pennants Rickey Ingenious The story of how the Cardinals survived and how they continue to survive is pretty familiar by now It is mostly the story of Branch Rickey whose fascist labor program though It may have injured the game as a whole certainly saved St Louis from extinction as a major baseball unit That I repeat is an old story The question before the meeting now is how the Cards will fare In 1936 By JACK CUDDY NEW YORK April 5 (UP) — Jack Doyle veteran Broadway betting commissioner rates the Detroit Tigers and' Chicago Cubs favorites to repeat for the major league pennants in his preseason baseball prices announced tonight Doyle who has been handling wagering on the main stem for more than 40 years quotes the shortest odds of 8 to 5 against the world champion Tigers winning their third straight American league flag And he offers the same 8 to 5 against the youthful Cubs making it two straight in Ford Frick’s division “It’s aura to be rough going along the pennant trails in both leagues this season” said Doyle as he somewhat timorously gave off his prices “I figure on a hot four-clu- b fight in the American league and a three cornered fracas in the National “But after watching most of the teams in action at their training camps and after juggling a lot of facts and figures I’ve just got to rate the Tigers and Cubs favorites — even if this rating causes me to take it on the chin later" Tigers a Force Pick Doyle said he knew It was like tempting fate to name the Tigers for their third straight flag because the percentage was all against three timing in either league But he could see no “out” because of the Tigers’ apparent strength— particularly after the acquisition of Big A1 Simmons from the White Sox “In the National league I’ve got to make Charlie Grimm and his Cubs the shortest priced club for the pennant" Doyle said "They’ve got a young fast stepping team that Bhould be a lot better this season of because confidence gained through winning the pennant last year Cards Second Choice “I make the Cubs first choice with 5 against them and figure the St Louis Cardinals second choice at 1 because of the uncertainty of Dizzy Dean Anything can happen to that guy you know Moreoyer Frankie Frisch no longer is a spring chicken and the loss of Bill De Lancey behind the plate may hurt St Louis Still lYigure the Cards stronger than the New York Giants who are third choice at 1 a considerably shorter price than the fourth choice 1 I’ve pTaced on Pittsburgh’s Pirates” Here are Doyle's prices for the baseball season The odds quoted are the prices Doyle lays against the chances of each club finishing first second or third in the pennant races: 8-- 2-- They are bracketed with the Cubs in the favorite's position with a large number of sportsmen backing them to win Oh the basle of The they should win reason for their steady success in the past has been Rickey's policy of wholesale reinforcement— almost every season has seen a couple of old stars fade and a couple of new ones emerge from the farm chain to replace them But last year the policy failed At least It stalled temporarily No new stars emerged while four of the old ones— Frisch Rothrock Haines and DeLancey —languished through age or illNo brilliant ness freshman pitcher appeared to prolong the sequence of Hallahan Carleton The closest Dean and Dean thing to a new star was Terry Moore an outfielder who hit only 287 in 119 games This was most unsatisfactory Forced to Purchase And the famine continues This spring instead of building with new stones Manager Frankie Frisch has been forced to purchase and patch and juggle He is sending Pepper Martin to repair his outfield and relying on hosCharlie Gelbert a part-tim- e pital case to fill the shoes of Martin at third base He had to go to the open market for a pitcher to support the Deans and in acquiring Ray Parmelee he had to give away his own chief replacement Burgess Whitehead The Cardinals are still a strong team but because of the two-yefailure of the chain system they are unbalanced and weak in reserves They may blaze along like a burning haystack most of the season but one or more injuries can wreck them I think a good many observant St Louis fans must be shuddering at the prospect In spite of all this the Cards are a spirited confident mob They always are If Mr Frisch is sleeping poorly these nigjits he conceals it But I think their pennant-winnin- g percentage is endangered by Inadequate replacement strength For the time being at least the chain-stor- e incubator has stopped babies producing million-dollar sr 3-- AMERICAN LEAGUE local courses Every one of the f covered with snow Sunday morning but by noon Nibley park and Forest Dale had shed their white mantles

Friday the 13th” ruefully remarked Robert T Jones Jr e president of the club and world champion whose third annual "comeback’’ on the course he helped design has fallen far short of exone-tim- pectations With a total of 156 Jones shots behind the pace setter “Try as hard as I can I simply can’t concentrate any more on my golf when the pressure is on” said Jones today “When the old urge was with me I could shut out everything else but my golf Now I find myself repeatedly being disconcerted by some stray conversation the click of a camera or some movement in the gallery’’ Does lack of concentration however account for the sharp contrast between practice scores where he was 16 under par for his last four rounds at Augusta only to go 12 over par for two tournament rounds? "Not entirely” replied Jones "as I’ve said all along too much emphasis is put on those practice scores There’s ho pressure in a friendly round nothing to get tense about and no gallery to cause distraction It’s an entirely different matter when you suddenly' realize every shot counts" Would his chances here be better if he engaged in two or three preliminary tournaments each winter in Florida or at Pinehurst to tune his game? “Most likely but I'm not going to try that” said the Georgian “I haven't the time or the inclination to reenter competition on a serious basis Naturally I would like to do better here than I’ve done Tm going to keep on playing in this but not in any others” r le Was 17 tliur-name- nt 8 Savings Co 203 Walker Bank Building Was 2315 Leads S L Shoot of the team league The invitational affairs will not be limited AUGUSTA rential rain which waterlogged the postcourse necessitated a ponement today In the final 36 holes of the $5000 Augusta national golf tournament The downpour which started early in the morning continued through the day with little sign of a let-u- p In calling off the day's play the tournament committee said the final 36 holes would be played tomorrow “rain or shine” Dogged from the start by blus’-ter- y weather the tournament scheduled to start last Thursday was a day late getting under way' But the frigid blasts had little effect on the game of Harry Cooper Chicago professional who scored a 70 on the initial 18 and added a subpar 69 yesterday for a halfway total of 139 five strokes ' aheacVof the Reid Today’s washout was a big blow to the Sunday visitors as well as the -- tournament committee now facing a heavy financial loss on of golf this year’s affair fans arrived from various points in Georgia and South Carolina only to find the postponement sign up Meanwhile a half dozen or more The Hone Investment Frank Kautzman Snow Fails to Halt Shotmakers at Nibley Park Forest Dale Candidates for Club Teams Lined Up were Qlen Goal HE Batteries — Bartonf Melton and Knott and Hemsley Batteries Links Champ Passes Away and R 101 210 01 — 6 15 210 002 01— 6 7 Spencer Beckman 1904 Ogro-dows- ki Jacksonville Fla — Baltimore St Louis (A) March 21 Former Hallahan and Sherer Roas and Cvengroa OtherScores ’At Viking rallies 7 'Teutonia 2 Vtkiuga2 Hollandia Bremer For 10 Days LEAGUE Callies Germania Holland!
