K New York. May 11 lUEvery
thing looked fine for baseball
when the government gave a
"green light" lor 1B45, but no one
reckoned with the weatherman,
who has been flashing "stop Sig
nals" ever since.
Mnnaeers made no secret ol
their concern today over the post
ponements. Last year at this
Ume only 32 games had been
rained out, 16 In each league. To
date in 1345, there have been 48
postponements, 24 in each league.
The American has played only
64 game9 to date and the Nation
al 63 lor a little more than one
- tenth ol the 616 that must be
tilaved in each league on the
basis of a 154-game schedule for
. each team. Yet the season is
about one-seventh completed
which means that about one game
in three has been postponed,
few Games Postponed
During all of 1934 there were
only 35 games postponed in the
American ana m in me iauoimi
because of the weather.
Each game called off now
means more work later on for
short pitching staffs, tiring vet
erans and rookies who may pale
of the big league pace and under
wartime schedules whereby eacn
team makes only three trips a
season to an opponents park, there
will be frequently as many as
three or four double headers in
a row with overnight travel trips
in between.
Most postponed games will be
made up on the' second trips to
prevent heavy accumulation of
fxtra games late In the season
when the weather again becomes
rainy. That means tne Dig strain
will bo during hot days in late
June, July, and August when
players are at low ebb physically.
White Sox Lead
The Chicago White Sox have
had the most postponements In
the American, 10, and the Boston
Braves in the Nationel, nine.
Other American league post
ponements are Cleveland eight,
Lit. Louis and Detroit seven, and
Boston, Washington, Philadelphia,
and New York, four each. Phil
adelphia and Cincinnati have seven
each in the National, New York
und Brooklyn six, Chicago and
Pittsburgh five, and St. Louis
three.
Another bad factor now is that
the "Florida-like" northern spring
training weather put the players
in excellent condition, but the
siege of rain since then has caused
many . to camplain about losing
their fine edge.
Weather Is Bad
There was more ot the same
Hind of weather yesterday, caus
ing seven postponements in the
two leagues.)
In the only game played, a
night contest at St. Louis, the
Browns made It two straight over
Washington, winning, lu to 2,
on Jack Kramer's five-hit pitch
ing. The American league chain-
out ui enssi aui pou-una suoid
first inning, scoring three runs
on a single by George McQuInn
nnd an error by Gil Tories. The
Browns made 15 hits off Marino
I'lerottl and Armando Roche, in
cluding a homer by Vern Steph
ens, his fourth.

Helser Hogties
Padres, 8 to 0
(Br United Pr)
Screwy southpaws have been
the butt of many a baseball joke
but the San Diego Padres found
nothing to laugh about last night
when they met Mr. Roy Helser
of the Portland BeaVers.
Corky after two straight wins
over the Pacific coast league lead
ers, the Padres could touch I-iel-ser's
lefthanded slants for only
four hits as he pitched Portland
to an 80 triumph. He racked
up eight strikeouts and had strong
batting support from his team
mates, including a homer by
Frank Shone. The victory en
abled the Beavers to stretch their
first-place margin to four games.
The Seattle Hainlers slipped in
to second nlaco ahead ol San
Diego by downing the Sacramento I burned out by a winter of corn-
Senators for the third time, 61. peuuon.

New York, May 11 (Hi When
the horses start hoofing it this
weekend, after the winter war
time ban, they'll probably pound
out one of the most exciting sea
sons in turf history.
Throe factors will conjribute
toward this result:
(1) the 1945 turf is blessed with
one of the finest crops of three-year-olds
In "the sport's annals,
and three-year-olds are the main
cog of racing; (2) upsets will
feature slake events because those
events will be jammed together in
such fashion by the abbreviated
season that name horses will be
able to point for only one or
two; (3) at the season's opening
practically every mount will be
going to the post fresh not
Veteran Carl Fisher .limited the
Sacs to ' five scattered blows.
George McDonald, Rainier first
saeker, clouted a four-begger In
side the park. Catcher Hal Sueme
collected a double and two singles
off two Solon moundsmen.
Oaklund Loses Game
The Oakland Acorns dropped
to fourth place, five games off
the place, by losing to Los An
geles, 5-1. It also marked the
first loss for len Gilmorc, ace
Acorn pitcher, after three straight
wins. Jodie Phipps was on the
hill for the Angels and scattered
five hits. Lou Novlkoff started
the Los Angeles victory ride by
crashing out a triple in the second
llmilng.
fcan Francisco 'made It throe
straight over Hollywood with a
JU-d decision at Seals stadium.
Del Young paced the offensive

Although the 1044 season was"
the most prosperous In racing
hlslorv. enioviiiB a Mtitucl handle
of more than $1,209,000,000 this1
prosperity was achieved despite
a mediocre lot of three-year-olds,
remnants of a crop of 1943 two-year-ohls
who were beset by ill
ness and lnjdry.
Despite the unusual ability of
last year's two-year-olds, there's
little chance of any of them win
ning the "triple crown" for three-year-olds
in '45. That means
winning the three classics Ken
tucky derby, the Preakness and
the Belmont stakes. " Only six
thoroughbreds of the past have
done It Sir Barton, Gallant Fox,
Omaha, War Admiral, Whirlaway
and Count Fleet. It Is a difficult
feat in normal times; but this
year it Is doubly difficult because
the three stakes will be jammed
in between June 2 and June 23.
On the basis of their perform- cappers.
anees as two-year-olds, William
Jeffords' Pavot and John Marsch's
Free For All would seem to have
the best chances for the three
way crown. . But Pavot, winner
of eight straight starts, has-been
declared definitely out of the der
by because of a hoof Injury that
slowed up winter training. He
will be pointed for the Preakness,
a week later.
Meanwhile, Free For All Un
beaten in five straight starts
appears a certain derby starter;
But he will be threatened by such
probable stnrters as Esteem, Jeep,
War Jeep, Pot O' Luck, Fighting
Don, Alexis, Pholos, Floodtown,
Guam, Pericles and Sea Swallow.
Also by the filly Busher. Wq
imagine that all these mounts,
who were going as two-year-olds,
will be found among the derby
nominees when they are announc
ed, along with plenty of others.
Jockey George Woolf believes
that Esteem, owned by William
Ziegter, Jr., has an excellent
chance for the derby at least
Woolf has made inquiries about
riding him in the Kentucky clas
sic. Esteem finished first in only
one of 12 starts as a two-year-old;
but ho almost nipped Pavot In
the hopeful stakes at Belmont
last year, coming from far off
the pace. He shows a liking for
distance, which is quite import,
ant in the derby. Moreover, Es
teem has been working well all
spring at Belmont and is in good
condition.
Esteem is expected to give a
sample of his speed. In the ex
perimental are War Jeep, Alexis,
Dockstader, Floodtown and Guam,
In this six-furlong event, the
horses are rated and weighted by
John B. Campbell, racing secret

Nation's Tracks
Ready for Races
New York, May 11 (iPi Racing

of the two great three-year-old
classics, the Kentucky derby and

' Turfmen moved at "almost
thoroughbred speed themselves in
getting schedules arranged after
the announcement by war moblll
zer Fred M. Vinson in Washing-'
ton yesterday that the govern
ment ban against operation of the
tracks had been lifted. They were
jubilant even though the ban on
special trains and cars 'to 'the
tracks remained. . '
Derby Plans ITIttdo
Plans were almost completed
for the running of the 71st Ken
tucky derby on June 2 and the
Preakness at Balvimore was set

stakes in New York, will be held
either on June 23 or June 30,
metropolitan racing officials in
dicated. Ashely T. Colo, chairman of the
state racing commission in New
York, said removal of the ban
"will prove profitable and enjoy
able to the public, the horsemen,
the racing associations and the
state." . .
Cole revealed that the five rac
ing associations In the metropoli
tan area had filed applications
with the commission for dates
and that an announcement of the
complete schedule would be made
late today.
Previously, H had been an
nounced that Jamaica, the track
which usually opens the New
York season, would begin Its
spring meeting on May 21.

return game with the Camp Ab
bot sailors here next Tuesday
night, defeated Pope McCarthy's
Telegraphers 3 to 2 in a tight
game last night on the Harmon

with Leo Patz on the mound, were
trailing until the final inning, but
in that frame managed to push
over the winning run.
The game was a twilight affair,
and , was the closest contest
played on the local diamond this
season. '
