Major League Season Inaugural Promised Fair Skies, Big Crowds
ARE SLATED FOR
PITCHING DUEL
Champion Tigers and Yanks
Both Open Schedule Away
From Home Grounds
Many Clubs Have Rooks
Baseball Band Wagon Starts
(By the Awoclated Presa.)
Tha all-Important cooperation of
the weatherman was virtually assured
on all fronU today for the opening of
the major league baseball season.
Except at St. Louis, where the Na
tlonal league champion Chicago Cubs
were schedulpd to open up aftalnst
the rouffh -riding Cardinals, the dawn
of baseball's annual Inaugural day
brought clear aklea and moderate
temperatures.
In St. Louis, regarded as one of the
highly-Important focal points be
cause It will produce a pitching duel
between Lonle warn eke and the cele
brated Dizzy Dean, the sky was over
cast with possible showers predicted.
It was partly cloudy In Cincinnati
where the Pittsburgh Pirates were
matched against the Cincinnati Reds.
Warm In New York.
Cloud -necked skies and a warm
sun augjired for a capacity attend
ance of 56.000 In New York at the
Polo grounds where Bill Terry's
Giants will tako off against Casey
Stengel's bizarre Brooklyn Dodgers.
With olont-Dodger Inter-borough
game setting the pace, the eight open
ing games promised to attract aggre
gate attendance of between 100,000
and 300,000. This would not ap
proach record figures but would be
distinctly encouraging In view of the
fact that the demands of the schedule
made It necessary for both the world
champion Detroit Tigers and the New
York Yankees to open away from
their own spacious bailiwicks.
The Tigers, led by dynamic trflekey
Cochrane, wore making their 1030
debut at Cleveland with Stove O'NelU'fl
Indians, regarded aa hot pennant con
tenders this year, furnishing the op
position. Here another spectacular
mound duel was In prospect between
Lynwood (Schoolboy) Rowe and Mel
Harder.
F. R. to Tom First One.
President Roosevelt was to toss out
the first ball In the national capital's
opener between the New York Yan
kees and Washington Senators.
Many of the clubs will sport rook
ies In their lineups, but the most
highly publicized of the freshmen,
Joe Dl Magglo of the Yankees, will
view the Inauguration from the side
lines. Dl Magglo still Is suffering
from a burned foot.

DROP KICK FAILS
In the main event wrestling match
at the Armory last night Prince
Sillkl Ibn All Hassan Mlhalakls.
Arabian nobleman, matched guile for
guile and speed for speed with Pete
Belcastro. pacific coast Junior heavy
weight champion, and emerged With
the first win orer the flashy Italian
turned in here In many months.
Mlhalakls took the first fall after
Belcastro had started a series of son
nenbergs. After absorbing three he
Jumped over Belcastro's flying body,
picked the champion up out of the
corner, end entangled him hopelessly
In hts dragon scissors.
Pete came back fast In the next
frame and In less than a minute had
shoulder butted the Prince groggy,
finishing with three rope swings and
a back body drop which not only
knocked the wind from the clever
Arabian, but almost crushed bis
chest.
Anxious to end the match while
he had an advantage, the Italian
roared out of his corner at the bell
and launched a man-killing drop
kick which the apparently groggy
Prince paried by going backwards
with It. Under the Impression that
Mlhaiakts was about finished Bel
castro leaped to his feet and started
another vicious drop kick only to
have the Mohammedan drop under
it with the speed of a cobra. The
champion flew clear over Mlhalakls'
head, and dropped with a sickening
thud on his back. It was only rou
tine when the Prince took the fall
with hts camel lock.
The match waa one of the classics
In local ring history, with the men
equally matched. At times their cat
like efforts to apply a telling hold
had the big crowd howling wildly,
and the applause at the end was
thunderous. Mlhalakls . leaves tomor
row for San Francisco, and has stated
that he will not wrestle Belcastro
again unless the championship belt
Is at stake.
The middle main event saw Prankle
Peck of flan Francisco and Medford
outweatherlng the storm of George
Wilson's flying tackles, Peck taking
the nod at the end of the third
round when Wilson was unable to
return because or a dislocated verte
bra In his neck. Wilson took the
fall when he knocked the husky ex
sal lor groggy, but In doing so he
also eliminated himself. A doctor was
summoned from the audience, and
managed to get the ml asp laced bone
in place in a short time. There will
be no permanent after-effect from
the Injury, the doctor said.
In the curtain raiser Danny Savlch,
another All -American football star,
repeated his last week's performsnce
in downing big Frank Taylor of Ohio
State by the son nen berg route. In
the first round Savlch missed one
wild flying tackle and catapulted
from the ring, but the experience
failed to dampen his enthusiasm for
the football attack.
In the second round he again
launched his tackling, driving Tsylor
completely through the ropes four
times and onto the floor outside the
ring twice. Taylor gamely crawled
back In both times, the last time
falling to get Inside before the end
of the 20 count. At the bell for the
third round he attempted to get to
the center of the ring and fell flat
on his face, out cold from the ter
rific battering. Frisble awarded the
match to Savlch.
The bouts were tht best seen here
this year. All were fast, and all were
clean, with not a single dirty hold
being used by any of the six men.
FACE YOUNGSTERS
Next Sunday afternoon a decrepit
and ancient group of has-been base
ball players will again don their
cleats and do battle with a vlglroiu
senior high sehool nine at the high
school field. The battle la heralded aa

antlca aa the old timers will 1
deavor to drag their ancient bones
about the diamond In an exhibition
of how they cavorted In the dim past.
The game will be a preliminary to
a baseball school for boys, being
sponsored by a group of Medford
business men. All boys between the
ages of H and 21 will be eligible to
enter the. school, and John Mlljus,
gr-ai pitcner who wonted the majors
lor au yeara. will be at the helm.
The organization will be a non.
profit enterprise, with the sole pur
pose of developing baseball players
from the younger talent In this clm-
munlty. One of the announced ob'
Jectlvea of the group is to get at
least two good nines, with the aim of
developing a possible city team to
compete against similar squads In
o.ner cities. .
The lineup for the ancient In
Sunday's battle has not been com
pleted, but It la probable that Mil
Jus himself will twirl for them. Verne

No Ladies will be
Arrested
for buying Chintz!
HERE'S a funny little item about sales-tax troubles 160
years ago in London.
To protect the English weavers of linen and wool,
cotton chintz was stiffly taxed, and the Lord Mayor
was "shocked and grieved" to see three gentlewomen
walking in St. James Park on Sunday dressed in chintz
gowns. On Monday morning, the three ladies were
haled into court but all promptly paid their fines . . .
because chintz was so pretty and so cool !
It still is. Crisp little dot and flower chintz for warm
weather frocks. Red-rambler-rose chintz for summer
bedrooms. Chintz slip-covers for dining-room chairs.
Chintz blinds when you take the winter draperies down.
Right now is the time to do your chintz-choosing. Or
gay cretonnes and bold blocked linens . . . clothes at
special after-Easter savings . . . porch and lawn furni
ture . . . garden tools . . . ALL the things you'll need and
enjoy this summer.
Study the advertisements to see who's selling them
and what the price tags are. Pre-shopping in the pages
of this paper will save you hours of aimless wandering
and indecision will make every dollar do extra duty.
In April, and all year round, read the advertisements
FIRST.
