LEAGUE OUTFITS
Cards Deserve Favorite Rat
ing But Observers See
Loss Of Grimes And
Hafey Serious Handicap.
By H.rhert W. Marker,
(Associated Press Sports Writer.)
NEW YORK, April 13 JPy-Eight
National league baseball clubs have
been winning league gamea on paper
for two months or more. Today, with
a little cooperation from the weather
man, they'll see If It's Just as easy
to win them on the ball field.
Some 120.000 parsons were expected
at the four opening games In New
York, Brooklyn, Cincinnati and St.
Loula.
The opening schedule was:
Pittsburgh Pirates at at. Louis
Cardinals.
Chicago Cuba at Cincinnati Reds.
Boston Bravea at Brooklyn Dodgers.
Phillies at New York Olants.
Hot Hare Looms.
Whatever the final result of the
pennant drive that ends September
35, the league looks forward now to
one of the most Interesting races In
Its long history. By trade and pur
chase, all eight clubs have strength
ened weak spots In defense or of
fense until It appears that not one
can be used as a convenient etepplng
stone for such outstanding pennant
contenders as the world champion
Cardinals, the Olante or Cubs.
Perhaps the Cardlnale deserve to
be rated aa heavy favorttea to win
their third straight pennant, but some
observers believe the champions will
feel the loss of Burleigh Crimes, vet
eran right-handed pitcher, and Out
fielder Ohlck Hafey, league batting
champion In 1931.
Few Changes.
Except for the pitching ataff, the
Cardinals, Olants and Cubs start the
season with only one change apiece
In their lineups. The Cardinals will
have Jimmy Collins In the outfield
In place of Hafey: the Olants will use
Len Xoenecke In left field at least
when opposed by a right-handed
pitcher: and the Cubs will place Stan
ley Hack at third base.
The Phillies' principal addition Is
Outfielder Oeorge. Davis, while the
Bravea count on Art 0hlres at first
base and Frit Knothe on third.
GREENSBORO, N. C, Aplrl 13.
AP) A near riot during which guns
were brandished by participants, but
not used, broke up an American Le
gion meeting last night when - a
friend of National Commander Henry
L. Stevens, took exception to the
Legionnaires' criticism of Stevens for
his stand against cash bonus pay
menta. The friend, whose Identity was not
learned, was rushed by the Legion
naires when he branded aeveral of
the evening's speakers "Hare."
It was wltfi difficulty that police
restored order and escorted the man
to safety. No arrests were made.
Prior to the meeting service men
staged a parade through the business
district, carrying banners demanding
cash, At the court house the assem
bly heard Harold Da Coe of Wash
ington, national commander In chief
of the Veterana of Foreign Wars, and
James E. Van Zandl of Altoona, Pa.,
Junior vice commander, urge that
pressure be brought to secure action
by congress on the ca&h payment pro
posal. A resolution to this effect was
adopted.

EAGLE POINT, Ore., April 12.
(8pl.( At a meeting of the school
baseball players. It was decided that
the team would enter the field as a
high school team and not take part In
the Junior Legion baseball competi
tion, as the age limit was raised by
the Legion. This would make com
petition uneven for the -local boys,
who are all under 16 years of Age.
The Eagle Point team will have
practically the same material aa last
year with the addition of three strong
players. Young, walton and Myers.
Bids have already been received
for games. Butte Falls, Sams Valley
and Gold Hill high schools will ap
pear on the schedule.. A game at
Same Valley April IS, wltjh a return
game here April 33, Is being planned.
Baseball practice has been under
way for threeweeks and the players
are showing up strong.
