WHILE OPPOSITION
New Yorkers Still Have
Plenty of Stuff That
Makes Outstanding Club
They're 2 to 1 Favorites
By ALAN GOULD
' (Associated Press Sports Editor.)
Despite the fact they lace much
stronger opposition all along the
American league line this year, es
pecially from Washington, the New
York Yankees still have large and
abundant quantities of the stuff that
makes them the outstanding club In
baseball.
Salaries of the baseball champions
underwent drastic reductions, includ
ing a slice off Babe Ruth's paychecks
big enough to pay the year's stipend
of all but a half dozen other stars,
but the New Yorkers ' are still the
most expensive cast In either major
league.
Allen Looks Bad.
Johnny Allen, their freshman pitch
ing sensation in 1932, has not round
ed Into form and seems unlikely to
duplicate his feat of winning 17
games, but the wealth of available
pitching talent Includes a big fel
low -who may do even better, Don
Brennan, up from the Newark "farm"
and reday for a regular Job.
The Babe himself no longer Is a
greyhound on the defense, and Man
ager Joe (McCarthy may not have de
cided yet who will start the, season
at shortstop, but consider the em
barrassment of the Yankees' pilot In
the circumstances. He has two of
the greatest young outfielders any
where in sight, Bam Byrd and Fred
Walker, both straining at the leash
If Ruth shows the least sign of need
ing an understudy.
Three Ace Shorstops.
He has three shortstops, any one
of whom would be welcomed on most
other big league clubs, and the task
of deciding whether Bill Werber has
come along fast enough this spring
to displace Prankle Crosettl or Lyn
Lary. 1932 alternates.
In this dreadful predicament. It la
small wonder that the Yankees are
3 to 1 favorites to win the pennant
again, even though Washington Is
conceding nothing and the other
clubs are hoping mostly for the
"breaks."
In the two vital elements of base
ball supremacy, power and pitching,
the Yankees have nothing to worry
about. Now that Connie Mack has
broken up the Simmons -Poxx com
bination on the Athletics, there Is
no two-ply powerhouse anywhere to
compare with Ruth and Gehrig.
All Carry Wallop. t
Oombs, Sewell, Lazzerl, Dickey and
Chapman all carry enough wallop to
originate or Join typical Yankee slug
fests. No matter who plays short
stop and If Red Ruffing Is pitching,
there Is no soft spot anywhere In
the batting order.
The starting pitching staff again
will be built around Ruffing, the
Nokomls (111.) righthander, and Ver
non (Lefty) Gomez, the accomplish
ed southpaw. Together they won 42
games last year and should come close
to that figure again. George Plpgraa
and Johnny Allen may have to hus
tle to keep their regular Jobs, with
Brennan, VanAtta, Deshong, big Wal
ter Brown and Danny MaoFhyden
anxious for steady employment. Herb
Pennock and Wiley Moore are past
masters at the art c mopping up.
Charley Devens, Harvard alumnus,
was originally ticketed for a season In
Newark, but he has developed so
fast that McCarthy may keep him
with the varsity.
May Farm Crosettl.
Aside from the problem of trim
ming his pitching staff, the man
ager'! cnlel worrlea concern which
two of his shortstop trio to keep.
Right now It looks as though Cros
ettl will be sent to Newark, leaving
Werber and Lary to fight it out. Mc
Carthy, because of the optional lim
its, also may be obliged to let Wal
ker go back to Newark for another
season and keep Dusty Cooke Sr
outfield reserve duty.
Otherwise, there Is no questing
about the lineup. Including B.il
Dickey behind the bat, barring acci
dent or suspension. Gehrig, Lazzerl
' and Sewell are set at their Infield
posts, as are Qpmbs and Chapman In
the outfield.
Notre Dame Pays Honor
To Departed Grid Chief
SOUTH BEND, Ind March 31.
(AP) Notre Dame today honored the
memory of Its immortal Viking of
football, Knute Rockne, and looked
back longingly on a glorious era of
athletic achievement that may never
return to the campus of the golden
dome.
It was two years ago today that the
great master of the "Fighting Irish"
was killed in an airplane crash in
Kansas and the entire university
Joined In tribute and prayer. Classes
for the day were dismissed and the
Rev. Charles L. O'Connell, C. S. C,
president of Notre Dame, planned to
sing a requiem high mass.
Notre Dame's football army, always
10 or more full teams strong, has
fought many a rousing battle under
the leadership of Coach Heartley
"Hunk" Anderson since "Rock" passed
on, but Its supremacy over the col
lege gridiron has been broken. The
fall started with Southern California's
great victory In 1931 and continued
through last season when the forces
of the South Bend raiders were leveled
twice under attacks by the same Tro
jans and the Panthers from Pitts
burg. The football record "after Rockne"
has been 13 won, four lost and one
tied, as compared to Rockne 's great
record of 105 victories, 12 defeats and
5 ties In 13 successive campaigns,
ending with 19 straight conquests-
Track Star to Of ficiate
For Klamath Field Meet
KLAMATH FAWA Ore., Mar. 31.
(Spl.) Nearly 200 athletes from the
high achoola of two states will com
pete on Modoc Held here May a at
the second annual Southern Oregon
Northern California track and field
meet. The meet, sponsored by the
20-30 cluos of district No. 8. will be
one of the outstanding events of the
lnter-scholastlc season.
The meet will be dedicated to Ralph
Hill, America's most brilliant contri
bution to track In the last decade.
Hill probably will act as honorary
referee and give a two-mile run ex
hibition, an event In which he holds
the Pacific ,coaat record.
Hill, American champion for the
8.00C meters, became the sensation
of the Olympic games at Los Angeles
last August when, apparently fouled
a few yards from the tape, he ran
second to Laurl Lehtlnen, Interna
tional star from Finland. The Amer
ican runner a product of Bill Hay
ward University of Oregon coach
was widely praised for his sports
manlike conduct in refusing to pro
test the Incident.
The schools expected to compete
here are as follows:
From Oregon: Marshfleld, Klamath
Falls. Grants Pass, Burns, Bend, Lake
view, Eugene, Ashland, Chlloquln.
Redmond, Madras, Prlnevllle. North
Bend. Coqullle, Roseburg. Malln, Fort
Klamath, Merrill, Bonanza.
From California: Dunsmulr, Yreka,
Alturas, Dorria, Weed, Susanvllle.
Major trophies will be awarded the
schoo: winning the meet, the high
point man and the school taking the
halt-mile relay. Individual awards
will be given winners of first, second
and third places.

as captain for the whole foursome
and should be responsible for his
team being in starting position at the
proper time Sunday. The players

nament manager, those -wishing to

a. m., and those wishing to play only
8 holes should tee off at 11:00 a. m.,

proximately the same time and prizes

See World Plot by Jews
The Nazis profess to .see an inter
national Jewish plot at work, such
as they have always blamed for the
ills that befell Germany as & result
of the world war.
Several hundred thousand brown
shlrted Nazis are to begin the picket
ing of Jewish establishments through
out the country and already have
been delegated to their posts. In many
towns boycotts already were active
but the Nazi troopB were ordered to
halt them and in some places they
were able to do so, though It was
necessary to close the victimized
stores.
An order was Issued by the Nazis
headquarters to refrain from inter
fering with the business of the Wool
worth chain stores. A Nazi economic
theory Is hostile to chain stores of
all kinds, holding that such large
organizations ruin small dealers.
One report laid the latest outbreak
against the Woolworth stores to an
erroneous belief that the original
Woolworth was a Jew. (American
Investors have $27,000,000 Invested In
various chain stores and Jewish-owned
department stores In Germany).
New Yorker Assaulted
Prompt action by the American
consulate has resulted In the expul
sion of one Nazi storm trooper from
the party and a sharp reprimand to
two others.
The action arose from another as
sault on Julian Fuhs of New York,
who was beaten March 12 by men In
Nazi uniform who demanded money.
A storm troop leader Interfered at
that time and gave an alarm to the
police.
Uniformed Nazis and civilians en
tered Fuhs night-club early Wednes
day morning. When Fuhs asked to
see their membership cards one of
the civilians assaulted him while one
