(RP) The "wild horn of the Ob ages" lant going to run wild on the base paths this sea' son. While Manager Gabby Street has lot of respect for Pepper Martin's speed, which virtually stole a world title for the St. Louis Cardinals last fall, he has let It bs known this apeed will be controlled and directed. "Martin la s good base runner,1 the Gld sergeant aald as he directed the champions workout here, "but he'll steal only on signals. "I want to help him all I can and 111 glva him every opportunity to teal a base, but the fundamental ob ject of this ball club la to win games, and stcien bases won't butter any parsnips for u unless we are win- nlng." Contending It would be "folly" to take the blanket off" Pepper and let him run his head oft, Oabby pointed out that then are other fast and mora experienced baa runners an the Cardinal olub. "Martina still a young ball player," Is the way the sergeant put It, "with out the Judgment of Frlach or some of the older players. And even the older ones steal on signal." Oabby's style of campaigning for the National league pennant will be virtually the same as last year, he hinted, stressing smart base running as an essential. "X like the sacrifice and the squeese play and the hit-and-run," he ex plained, "and these worked fin for us last season." ' Street baa hopes that Josl Hunt, outfield recruit, will turn out to be another fly chaser who will make a reputation for himself by speed on the bases. E Sunday's heavy down power washed out the double-header baseball game scheduled at the fairgrounds between Orants Paw and Medford and Jack sonville and Talent but valley league officials declared today that tickets sold for the games will bs honored next Sunday when the same twin-bill baa been scheduled. The double-barreled affair has a used considerable enthuelssm among the fans as It will glrs an opportunity to see all the teams cf tlx lesgue In action on the same card.

If all, or nearly all, of them stand fast, Governor Roosevelt certainly will be defeated. If a considerable bloc of them stampede to him, he surely will be nominated. The power of this group hat been Increased Immeasurably by the Roosevelt defeats In Massachusetts and California. Roosevelt no longer can expect to win without a struggle in the conven tion itself. He no longer can expect a sufficient number of recruits from the ranks of bis major opponents; the battle has grown too bitter for that: The winning votes must come, If they come at all, from the favorite son states. This meant that from now until the roll calls are in progress at Chi cago, the delegations from Illinois, Ohio, Missouri, Maryland, Oklahoma and Virginia will come under Increas ing pressure. They will be told on the one hand that If they hold out their particu lar candidate may emerge the win ner after the deadlock. They will be told on the other hand that unless they go to Roosevelt quickly, they may miss the bandwagon. They are between the millstones. How It Stands Stated mathematically, the situa tion figures out like this: Alfred E. Smith generally Is con ceded somewhere between 100 and 300 delegates. These delegates are almost solidly anti-Roosevelt, first and probably last. The 44 won by John N. Garner in California were elected after a re sentment breeding campaign. The possibility that Garner's own state of Texas will twitch It 46 to Roosevelt appears much more remote now that California hat Joined the Garner movemnt. Taking the Smith and Garner vote combined, here are, say, 376 on whom Roosevelt could not safely count at any time. It takes 110 more than this, or 389, to block a nomination. Can Roosevelt prevent 110 or roughly half of the 208 favorite ton votes from going Into solid combi nation with the Smith and Garner forces against him? That is trhe whole question. Roosevelt's Claim The Roosevelt claim of victory on an early ballot rest today on a sup position that considerably more than half of the 308 favorite son votes will switch without much delay to the Roosevelt column. These suppositions which have had no confirmation except from Roose velt sources are that Missouri will soon quit James A. Reed and give her entire 30 to Roosevelt; t,nat the Illinois delegation will split away from J a m e t Hamilton Lewis, ahd Roosevelt will get at least 30 of the 08; that after about four ballots, 30 or more of the Ohio delegation of 62 will leave George White for Roosevelt; that William H. Murray cannot control his Oklahoma delega tion, but will lose most of the 32 to Roosevelt; and that neither Governor Ritchie of Maryland nor former Gov ernor Byrd of Virginia will be dis posed to hold out their respective delegations to the point of precipi tating a party-rocking deadlock. Harmony a Factor However great his handicaps, it must be remembered that several im portant factors are fighting on the side of Governor Roosevelt. He has no nationally strong can didate against htm. The party as a whole Is anxious for harmony this years and dreads a deadlock. And the anti-Roosevelt forces are made up of such diverse elements that a harmonlloua unity of command on the convention floor will be extreme ly difficult to achieve.
