Billy Hulen says:
Oakland Youth
Serious Rival
of . Don Budge
Being a serving of sports hash on
another one of those spring -feverish
tough-to-conoentrate days: -
Don Budge, providing be doesn't
suddenly get fed
up with the so-
called amateur
ranks and turn
pro, has a serious
rival for world
tennis supremacy
In Frank Kovacs,
18-year-old Oak
land. Cal., boy
wonder who no
body had heard
of until he In
vaded Florida the
paat winter.
There, the kid
Wily Rulea
cleaned B 1 ts y
Grant. Gene Mako and some other
big names In American tennis, and
now he is one of the select.
Strangely. Kovacs and Budge are
practically neighbors, they both llv
rng In Oakland. They work out to
gether often, .and wise exponents of
the racquet business claim Kovacs
makes red-headed Don battle for evsry
point. The youngster la tall and
rangy, six feet Tour Inches worth,
and weighs 175 pounds. Mark him
down as the coming American cham
plon.
Chalk up another point for those
who shout the American league Is
tops and the National is Just anothet
minor loop. Tony Lazzerl, 35-year-old
Italian veteran, was purchased
by the Chicago Cubs from the New
York Yankees and to date has prac
tically set the Natlorfal league on
fire. Filling In at .shortstop while
the Injured Jurgea recuperated. Tony
has fielded brilliantly and batted like
a crazy man. cracking out four hom
ers before the season was two weeks
old. And. he was considered all wash
ed up In the American.
While on the baseball subject, .t
appears that a fellow named Knicker
bocker has Just about shoved Joe
Flash" Gordon. ex-Unlverslty of Ore
gon star, out of that Yankee second
base slot. Also, that Bob Feller nas
really arrived and Is no longer Just
a aide ah ow attraction. He beat Lefty
Gomez and the Yanks yesterday. 3 to
3, which is considered something of
tries.
A swell story of the national pas-
tmle is "Baseball Wife" in the latest
Issue of Mr. Hearst's Cosmopolitan
mag. Written by Bob Consldlne, New
York baseball writer who knows his
stuff, the yarn deals with an old
timer who sees his third-base post
tlon threatened by the inevitable
youngster. We'll bet dollars to
donuts the author lifted his plot
from the major league career of Willie
Kamm. Road It and see.
Golf Is quite an Industry In
these United States. There are
an estimated 3.000,000 hookers
and at leers In the country who
spend an average of 54 for golf
balls each year. They spend 75
cents a round for caddy fees a
total of S 12.000.000 yearly for
raddles alone. They piny on
1,050 18-hole layouts and thou
sand of nine-hole course. Con
sidering what they spend for
rluh, bap, other equipment and
an occasional new bonnet for
friend wife to keep her consoled, '
yon renlly have something.
Another large snorts week-end Is
on the calendar, beginning tomorrow
At 9:45 p. m, at the high school sta
dium, athletes from 31 high schools
go to the post In the annual south
ern Oregon district track and field
meet. At the conclusion. 38 prep-
pers will have qualified for the Ore
gon state championships In Corvallls
next week, all winners and runners
up earning that honor. Medford.
winner of the Bill Hayward relays. Is
the favorite.
Then, Sunday afternoon the South
ern Oregon league baseball ses&on
opens In Medford, with the Craters
clashing with the Grants Pass Mer
chants, and at Emigrant dam near
Ashland, the second annual national
catfish derby takes place. The ball
game Is expected to be one of the
best of the year, and the derby fig
ures to surpass last year's event.
Derby starts at a p. m.; ball game
