MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY,. MARCH 30, 1934.
NATIONAL LEAGUE
WELL BOLSTERED
FOR NEW SEASON
Outlook for Sensational
Championship Race in
Senior Circuit Giants
Remain Important Factor
NEW YORK, March 30. (AP) The
National league la flying lta own
blue eagle this aprlng, testifying to
a recovery program already well un
der way.
Since Vie Giants regained world
championship prestige for the old
guard last fall, new owners have
taken hold of the tatl-end Cincinnati
Reds, three pennant challengers have
forfeited their lineups at consider
able expense and four new managers
have taken charge of splrng drills.
Sensational Race Looms
The combined outlook Is for a
sensational championship race, with
the Giants picked as the club to beat
and the Pittsburg Pirates looking
most Impressively among four real
rivals of Bill Terry's aggressive out
fit. Baseball men do not figure It Is
In the book for the Giants' pitching
staff to repeat Its marvelous 1033
performances, especially as the aid
of the heady Gus Mancuso behind
the bat will be missed for at least
another month. However, t,hose who
think the New Yorkers were In over
their heads, getting all the breaks
last season, may get the surprise of
thetr lives. The club will not give
up without the hardest kind of a
fight and Terry's Intention to make
every spot count Is demonstrated by
his abrupt trade of George Davis,
oenterflelder, to the Cardinals for
the hard-hitting George Watklns,
Pirates Real Class
The Pirates, despite erratic pitch
ing, finished second last year. Out
side of the box the Bucs have more
all-around class than any other club
In tbe league and the addition of
Red Lucas figures to give the hurling
department Just the workhorse It
needs. - The Waners, Lindstrom,
. Vaughan, Traynor and Suhr contrib
uted to the league's highest-powered
batting order, not excepting even the
Chicago Cubs.
, Chuck Klein's addition to t'ie Chi
cago outfield, at a cost of 138,000,
figures to pay substantial dividends.
Much also Is expected from a rookie
pitcher, Dick Ward, and George Stain
back,' an expensive , outfield recruit,
Jf the Cubs' pitching veterans, such
. as Bush, Malone and Root, can com
bine a return to form, pennant cal
culations probAbly will have to be
revised.
The St. Louis Cardinals and Boston
Braves both figure to be In the pen
nant scramble, making It a five-cornered
affair for the second straight
MODEST MAX SORRY FOR
GERMANY'S CINEMA FANS
GLOB IN '0, LAKE TAHOJ5, Calif.,
March 30. (JP) Max Baer, heavy
weight boxing championship conten
der and self-styled "great lover" of
the screen is sorry for the women and
children of Germany, he said today,
because his moving picture, "The
Prize Tighter and the Lady" has been
banned from German theaters.
"They didn't ban the picture be
cause I had Jewish blood," the form
er Llvermore, Cal,, butcher said. "They
banned It because Z knocked out Mx
Schmellng.
"It doesn't make much difference
to me, but I'm sure sorry for the wo
men and children of Germany. Too
bad they won't get a chance to tee
the world's greatest lover and world's
greatest fighter in action."
Baer, who la encamped at this lake
side resort training for his heavy
weight title bout with Prlmo Cac
nera next June, was up at the crack1
of dawn today and hiked five miles
over mountain trails as a part of his
conditioning grind. I
year, chiefly because each has un
usually strong pitching prospects,
The Cardinals also have enough speed
and power to lift the club to the top,
providing the Dean boys, Tex Carle-
ton, Bill Hallahan and Jesse James
all come through In the box. Virgil
Davis, the slugging backstop, Is the
principal addition.
Ilraves Miss "Rabbit"
T,he Braves will sorely miss their
veteran pepper-box, Rabbit Maran-
vllle, the victim of a broken leg In
an exhibition game two days ago,
but Manager Bill McKechnle has
come up with another pitching
"find," clarence Pickerel, to aid an
already well-balanced staff.
New pilots have taker the helm
of the other three National league
clubs but all any of them can hope
for Is that he will keep his outfit
from last place. Of the trio, Bob
O'Farrell's Cincinnati Reds, occu
pants of the cellar in 1633, have
shown the most Improvement, espe
cially In hitting, but It Is a question
how consistently the pitching staff
will help, .headed by Paul Derringer,
Si Johnson, Dazzy Vance, Larry Ben
ton and Sylvester Johnson.
Casey Stengel, new boss of the
Brooklyn Dodgers, also has limited
pitching prospects, with a staff built
around Van Mungo, and lacks real
batting drive. The Phillies, handi
capped now by the absence of Dick
Bartell with a spike wound, pin
their .hopes on Jimmy Wilson's abil
ity to get results from a flock of
erratic pitching arms. The club also
Is gambling on the ability of two
new Infleldera to come through. It
will miss the sluggingof Davis and
Klein.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (AP) The
slmon-pures have lost another top
notch golfer from their ranks In the
decision of Lester Bolstad to become
a professional.
It was only two years ago that
the blond Bolstad Insisted he would
never turn pro,
"I'd give up golf before I would
turn pro," he said. "When you are
a pro It takes the fun out of the
game. ' It then has become a business."
But that was two years ago. Now,
ns winner of state and national titles
he has plunged Into the money side
by taking over the post as pro at
the westwood Hills course hero.
His decision, he says, was prompt
ed by difficulties In obtaining a sat-
I factory job or establishing himself
In business.
Bolstad first appeared on the golf
.horizon when, as a youngster, he
won the national public links title
at BuffAlo, N. Y. Since then he has
copped both the Minnesota amateur
and open crowns. As a student at
the University of Minnesota he bag
ged the western conference cham

The feeling of the multitude seems
to be that Max Baer, the dance and
dynamite man from California, will
end the foreign hold on he heavy
weight championship, a situation that
years ago would have troubled men's
sleep but today causes little or no
excitement.
But the cozy men about the prize
ring aren't so certain that Baer, the
bomber, ts going to march in on
Prlmo Camera and heave right .hands
into him as he did Max Scbmellng
last summer and with the same dev
astating effect. They know that
Baer, since his leap In the limelight,
,has done everything possible to dull
the edge of his fighting blade. .
Curly-headed Max hasn't been In
a gymnasium In eight months. He
hasn't done a lick of training. He
has been shadow boxing around

but came right back to square the
count and left the ring after an
hour's see-saw grappling still on even
terms with the Seattle slugger.
Hansen used 40 minutes In time
and all he knows of the mat game
to subdue Wolfe for the first fall.
The tumble came as a result of a
quick backward body-slam after
the wiry Texan had been softened
with a series of elbow smashes.
Wolfe came back strong for the
second, fall and forced Hansen to re
sort to his fists and knees to keep
his shoulders off the mat. Referee
Prlsbte offered Wolfe the match be
cause of Hansen's slugging, but the
Texas boy refused. With the crowd
yelling for Hansen's scalp, Wolfe got
an opening for his rolling scissors,
and rubbed Charlie's shoulders on
the mat, squaring the match. The i
fall came In 12 minutes. Hansen
was slow In leaving the ring and re
quested five minutes' additional rest

' Papa Levy Issues Warning
Old Papa Levy, who aged 20 years
In the 24 months or so that he hand
died Battling Slkl, the slnguar Sene
galese, is one of these.
Now, Levy has no reason to be fond
of Camera. For the past ten years
whenever and wherever Tommy
Lough ran fought, there was Papa
bevy, in his corner, seconding him,
minding him, fighting with him and
for him.
Levy was seconding Tommy when
the former light heavyweight cham
pion lost to Camera In Florida. He
thinks Tommy might have fought
a little differently and won. But be
takes no credit from Camera.
Prlmo An Amu zing Boxer
"The big fellow Is an amazing
boxer," he aaya. "Tommy hit him
with right hand punches on the chin
because he feinted htm out of posi
tion, got his hands down, and then
let him have It. .Loughran could do
that because .he's a master boxer. It
took a great boxer to do It. Now
how good a boxer Is Baer?"
The answer there Is that two years
ago Loughran took Baer and tied him
into knots, had him so dumbfound
ed and flabbergasted that Max, near
tthe end of the match, dropped his
hands, stood In mid-ring and grinned
ruefully to the spectators 'as though
Inviting a suggestion from them as
to what might be done with the
pesky fellow in front of him.
"Don't forget, it takes a boxing
genius to reach a chin as high up
and as far away as Camera's. Don't
go off the deep end on Baer. He
can't box. Camera won't be a mark
for him. We'll still be looking for
a fellow to whip the Italian giant
after Baer has had his chance."
Wolfe granted the extra time and
Hansen returned to the ring In good
shape. Both wrestlers tried hard for
the deciding fall, but the gong ended
the match with honors divided,
The bout was one of the best ever
seen In a local ring. There was more
wrestling and not quite so much of
the usual "color," although Hansen
showed enough meanness to keep the
partisan fans tattling to Referee Ray
Frlsble.
Husky Swede Anderson, a product
of southern Oregon gridiron wars,
cracked one of Tommy Thompson's
ribs, and won his match with the St.
Louis heavyweight In the lower
bracket of the double main event.
Thompson won the first fall In 12
minutes with a series of elbow wal
lops and a body press. Anderson
returned to the ring for the second
Joust and swarmed all over his more
experienced opponent. Thompson held
his own for a few minutes, but the
Swede finally caught him with a
series of savage Sonnenbergs and
evened the bout.
Thompson limped to the dressing
room and did not return for the third
fall, forfeiting the match to Anderaon.
It was announced from the ring that
one of the St. Louis man's ribs had
been broken by one of Anderson's
lunges.
Pat Shaw, 147, was not strong
enough for Henry Gunter, 172, drop-
ing a fall In the first round of their
three-round curtain raiser. The boys
are novices from Grants Pass.

should use
S-W ARSENATE of LEAD
THE perennial question as to the best
methods to most economically control
Codling Moth damage is again before apple
and pear growers. As usual many claims, most
of which are unsupported by unbiased experi
mental research are being submitted to grow
ers which suggests that the interests of the
community at large in the coming crop,
should cautiously and carefully assemble the
facts based upon individual experience as to
the products which will not only safely pro
duce control but which will do it at the
lowest possible cost.
Again we state "Why You should use S-W
Arsenate of Lead" "to produce a crop of
apples and pears with the minimum amount
of worm damage and with the maximum
packout in extra fancies all accomplished
with the minimum of expense, including the
problems of washing."
Maximum Toxicity
Sherwin-Williams Dry Powdered Arsenate
of Lead has the reputation of being the most
successful product for the control of Codiing
Moth as is evidenced by the tremendous
number of users who realize that something
more than a chemical combination is neces
sary to secure this control. They realize that
because of the higher than average toxicity,
results are secured almost instantaneously and
which is obtained only because of the very
superior physical properties of Sherwin
Williams Arsenate of Lead.
Through an extensively equipped labora
tory located in Yakima, Sherwin-Williams
Arsenate of Lead has been developed to meet
Pacific Northwest conditions, has constantly
been improved and today it represent the
last word in efficient killing strength, at the
same time its durable adhesion of a maximum
arsenic deposit thoroughly protects the fruit,
yet washing easily under the standard meth
ods of cleaning. i
Compatible in All Sprays
Sherwin-Williams Dry Arsenate of Lead
has the especial advantage of being com
patible in combination with various standard
auxiliary spray treatments which is of par
ticular importance to the grower since he
wishes not only to preserve the killing prop
erties of Arsenate of Lead but wishes also to
know that no injurious or unsatisfactory
re-action may be caused through the combi
nation which may be used. Sherwin-Williams .
Arsenate of Lead has been tested by growers
who demand the most for their money and by
selecting this product as your standard for
Arsenate of Lead during the ensuing Codling
Moth campaign you secure results with the
least expenditure of money as to expense as
well as the maximum recovery in sales because
of the unusually high ratio of extra fancies
packed out.
No Need to Experiment
Every grower owes it to himself to depend
only on those products which experience
recommends as desirable and to be careful
not to be confused by statements which do not
have the backing of definite field results over
a period of years, for the results of last
summer s confused experience is still painful
to the memory of many as well as is the loss
which was incurred from heavy worm damage
especially when considering the improved
prices which were obtained.
Don't gamble with your crop! Buy Arsenate
of Lead of standard recognized efficiency be
cause of its higher toxicity. Ask your dealer
for Sherwin-Williams Dry Arsenate of Lead.
