Brooklyn Picked To Win National League Pennant By JACK HAND ORANGEBURG, S. C, April 13. (P This is the Brooklyn en in the Na'ional league. Unless the confident Dodgers trip over their own press clippings, they figure to win a second straight pennant. Perhaps the aging St. Louis Cards, with their gilt-edged pitch' inii. again can make it close. May be Billy Southworth can threaten with his revamped Boston Braves. , More likely, the Brooklyn club with its speed, extra base power. run-making ability and tight de fense has too much on the ball. Ex cept for erratic pitcring, the Dodg ers are a well balanced team. They shouldn't lose unless they beat themselves with overconfidence. Phillies Worse The Phillies, a real surprise fiackage last year, probably are at east a year away from serious pennant contention. Pittsburgh should do better if second baseman Danny Murtaush bounces back. New York, minus some power but stronger in the infield, shapes up as a second division club. Despite a fine showing in the grapefruit league, it looks as though the only club Cincinnati can beat out is Chicago. The cuds' youtn movement hasn't had time to jell. Here's the way it looks' from here: . 1. Brooklyn. 2. St. Louis. 3. Boston 4. Philadelphia. 5. Pittsburgh. 6. New York. 7. Cincinnati. 8. Chicago. Brooklyn is pretty much a "stand gat" club. Rookie third baseman ob Morgan is the only important addition. He should add even more zoom to the batting attack that netted 152 homers, twice as many as anybody else, in 1949. Robinson Good Jackie Robinson, league batting champ at .342, Carl Kurillo and Gil Hodges were the big RBI men last season. Although Robinson, now 31 reported overweight, there is no reason to think he won't be just as good. Th: may be the year for right fielder Furillo, a .324 batter, to challenge for the hitting crown. Hodges, only 26, is one of the bet ter first basemen in baseball. De- , spite a .285 average he knocked in 115 runs. I Behind the big punch trio, the ! Brooks show Pee We Reese, top shortstop in the league, left fielder Gene Hermanski, center fielder Duke Snider, catcher Roy Cam panella and Morgan in the regu lar lineup. Pitching is the Dodger problem. But that can't be too serious when you have an ace like Don New combe, the jumbo-sized Negro who won 17 games last year. He should win 20 without too much trouble. Preacher Roe, very effective with enough rest, Joe Hatten and sore armed Ralph Branca are the other regular starters. You never can tell what new phenom may pop out or Branch Rickey s farm system. There always is the chance of a trade for a regular starter because the Brooks have so much available talent. NW Boxers Lose In AAU Tourney' BOSTON, April 13 (JP The hopes of northwest amateur fight fans that one or more of the na tion's AAU boxing titles would re turn with the Pacific northwest contingent were blasted last night before a welter of fists. Two of the region's scrappers made it to the final round, but both bowed in nip-and-tuck bouts. Dick Rail of Seattle lost a split decision to Sammy Rodgers of Bal timore in the title bout of the 126 pound division. Rail took a simi lar divided verdict in the semi final from Harry Smith of Ca naan, N. Y. Another Seattle puncher, Dick Graddon, outpointed George Bod nie of Dayton, O., in the 147-pound semifinals, but lost by a T.K.O. in the third round of the title bout when he suffered an eye cut. His conqueror was Gil Turner of Phil adelphia. Carl Mills, the leather-throwing middleweight from Fort Lewis, bowed in the semifinal round to John Hawthorne of Baltimore, It was a split decision. The other remaining northwest erner, Portland's Wendall Delorme, lost a semifinal split decision in the 135-pound class to George Jus tice of Philadelphia. Justice went on to win the title with a decision over San' Francisco'! Sam Johnson. Connie Mack Starts Fetes - PHILADELPHIA. AprU 13 -4.V) Connie Mack began today a week-long whirl of parties and speeches honoring his golden an niversary season but the age less baseball veteran wasn't feel ing very festive. Frankly, the 87-year-old owner manager of the Philadelphia Ath letics was downright worried. A month ago, Mack's athletics were being boomed as a first rate flag thieat in the American lea gue, and Connie joyously looked forward to "that one more pen nant" that has been eluding him for 19 years.

The usual cast of stars opened the tournament at the 6,762-yard North Fulton Park course. In ad dition to deciding who the winner will be, the stars will find out if Atlanta still is blast about pro fessional golf. Many times the touring troup has com to Atlanta but seldom has it attracted enough (nj to turn a profit for sponsors." Why? Nobody seems to know definitely. Some old time golfers and golf fans hereabouts think that native Bobby Jones ruined Atlanta as a paying proposition for golf 20 years ago. Old timers ask, "Why pay money this week to go watch Sam Snead, Jimmy Demaret, Cary Middlecoff, Johnny Palmer, and the rest? Not too many years' ago we went out and watched Bobby Jones free." Besides Bobby Jones, Atlanta has watched other citizens who count their golf titles by the bar ren Charlie Yates of the Brit ish amateur and many other crowns; Louise Suggs, the present national and western opea cham pion; Dorothy Kirby, the queen of runners up who usually loses to fellow Georgia Miss Suggs; Alexa Stirling, three times woman's na tional amateur champion and a hall of fame girl; also Perry Adair, who was better than Bobby when they were boys, and Watts Gunn who with Jones formed th only national amateur finalist slate to Hockey Results Thur., April 13, 1950 The News-IUvl.w, Roseeurg, Ore. - 7 'By Th.

OUTFIELDER OPTIONED HOLLYWOOD, April 13 - W j Outfielder Cliff Aberson today was j optioned by the Hollywood base-; ball club to Mobile, Ala., of the i Southern association. I come from the same horn club Atlanta's East Lake. Middlecoff, Mangrum, Snead and Company, are just a bunch of Johnny come latelies hard to get excited about after you've wached grand slam Bobby tiie natives say. i Picking a winner of the North Fulton open involves mostly Sam Snead and Jimmy Demaret, Demaret likely wouldn't rank that high except for what happened Sunday in Augusta, Ga. Demaret won his third Masters title with 283 strokes. That's plenty good enough to make him a co-favorite. Snead'a powerful drives should be well suited to North Fulton fairways which are longer than the usual courses where winter cit cuit tournaments are held.
