(AP) The answer to the New York Qlant pennant chances li a succession of "Us." If Bill Terry can play first base regularly; If Bam Leslie can replace him effectively should a bad knee keep Terry on the sidelines; If Bur gess Whitehead can go at full steam at second; If Fred Fltzslmmons' arm la right again, and If Hank Lieber doesn't remain a holdout then you can bet your rent money that the Giant will be In the 1938 National league pennant race. They still can be hot contenders even If one or two of their problem bill players Just have a fair soason. Terry's Job resembles that of the vacationer who patches up the old family bus with a couple of new parts for a trans-continental trip. Pitching Big Problem Pitching, an almost inexhaustible product three years ago when Terry took up the steering gear and drove the Olanta to a world championship. la the biggest problem. Carl Hubbell, Hal Schumacher and Clydell Gastle xnan, who between them captured 07 of the PI games won last season, are certain qusntl tales for 1030. The other seven, among them Fl te st mmon a whose arm was operated on for a chipped bone last year, are big question marks. Teiry la optimistic over Harry Gum bert, Who won 30 and lost 10 last season for Baltimore, and Is counting on him to round out the "big tour." If Fltaslmmons comes through, to gether with Al Smith, winner of 10 and loser of eight In 1030, Terry will have one of the finest mound staffs In the game. Fred Marberry, erst while umpire. Is strictly a gamble, but If he can aave pitchers ilka Hub bell from relief duty, he'll be worth his weight In gold. Infield Cared For With Whitehead at second, Terry believes ha has solved his lnfelld problem, one of the reasons he assigns for two successive fold -u pa. Af course, Travis Jackson and his wobbly knee Is another question mark at third, but the ever reliable Mark Xoenlg can give him the rest-he needs. Dick Bartell at shortstop, Terry or Leslie at first complete the Inner defense. Probabilities are that Terry and Jack son will hold down their posts with Leslie and Koenlg serving utility roles.

If Lieber remains a holdout, the Giants would lose considerable punch. Lieber hit .331 and was one of the most Improved players In baseball last year. Taking It for granted that he will sign, Terry's outfield worries are over with Mel Ott In right, Joe Moore In left, Lieber In center and George Davis and Jim Ripple bring ing up the reserve.

TO IFOR w PORTLAND, Ore., March 10 (AP) A flip of the baskotball Instead of a coin, will decide the Portland prep league basketball champion ship.

SUPREME ICE CREAM IPS HOLLIS OUT AFTER L To the lilting strains of "The Last Roundup," Ken Hollls, the Ozark oaf, simulated' the month of March last night; going out like a lamb after raging In like a Hon, In his main event wrestling match against Dude Chick at the Armory. Hollls started the match with his usual whirlwind attack of slugging, eye gouging and hair pulling, and took the first fall when he slugged Chick away from the ropes while Hollls was attempting to haul him over the top hemp by the ears. Hollls was standing outside the ropes on the apron of the ring. A terrific blow to the head sent Chick to the vanvas, and Hollls did a high dive over the top strand to land on the cow puncher's prostrate form for the fall. Angered at repeated pul lings of his nose. Chick finally turned aggressive hlmsA'f, whsnged the Arkansas tough guy with his elbow, and then tossed him skyward four times with his now famous shoulder butt, and on the fourth such trip through the ozone, picked Hollls up and spun him Into unconsciousness with his lariat spin. The spin was followed by a rafter Jolting body slam, with Chick then tamping the half-dead Hollls Into the mat with his own shoulders, as the public address system struck up Billy Hill's well-kndwn cowboy classic, A small rip In the ring canvas, torn there by Chick's flying feet last week as he spun Mike Caddock, was ripped wide open In this bout as the two men battled about the ring. The crowd went almost Into hysterics when Chick secured his final hold. Hollls recovered from a violent stom ach Illness In the dressing room a half hour later. The middle event between "Wild cat" Wilson and Al Karaslck, sched euld for six 10-mlnute rounds, went for seven such scuffles, and still no one could get. a fall. Wilson hit Ka raslck several times with his flying tackle, but the wily Russian always rolled away from the thrusts, saving his own constitution and making Wilson extremely leary of launching too powerful an attack for fear he himself would be catapulted from the ring. A new hold was Introduced In this battle. Karaslck was standing with his back to the ropes, his arms over the top Strang and clutching the sec ond rope. Unable to pull him away, Wilson attempted to throw him over the result that the two top stranda looped over Karaslck 's arms. Referee Friable, In attempting to extricate the unhappy Cossack, again turned him over, but turned him the wrong way, winding his arms In the ropes even more hopelessly. With his arms look ing like crullers; the Russian Lion bellowed for aid, but It waa several minutes before he was disentangled by pitying fans, while Wilson rained blows Into his undefended face and body. Another new wrinkle In wrestling waa unveiled In the opener between Caddock and Stanley Rogers, when Caddock refused to break a hold that Referee Frlsbte had ruled unconstitu tional. In the fracas that followed Frlsble's efforts to pull the Honolulu gob loose, Caddock swung on one of the seconds, who dropped the towel he was holding. Friable promptly selnod this, improvising a noose with which to choke Caddock Into sub mission. Belting his opportunity, Rog ers Inserted his own foot between the neck of Caddock and Frlsble's hands, and almost choked Caddock to death. The match went to Rogers on a foul, The first round was no fall, the second going to. Caddock on a hammertock. The second fall went to Rogers on a Boston crab. In the last round, Rogers heaved Caddock out of the ring, and Cad dock heaved the timekeepers' chair back Into the arena. This action aroused the beast In Rogers, who seised the pillow from the chair and pum mel ed Caddock fiercely about the nscgln. but with little effect. The bout was climaxed when one of the spectators throw Caddock's drewlng gown under the ring, and he Bricki with Shamrock Cen ters and other colorful Ice Cream in novelty molds for your Irith parties ...
