Bore cornea the biz guess: AMERICAN NATIONAL : New York St. Louis Washington Chicago Boston New York Detroit Pittsburgh Bt. Louis Boston Cleveland Cincinnati Chlladelphla Brooklyn Chicago Philadelphia V Races In both leagues that promise to be the elosest in years seem to be on the pro gram as the baseball season begin. Shitting of players lias made the task ot selection . the hardest experienced in many years. In the American league, as this observer sees it, the Yan-' , kees seen to have everything needed to win a pennant. Last - year, due to -illness and Injury, the pitching bogged down bad ly. Now, with Rutting in splendid -shape, the team ap pears to .be a winner. I am expecting great season for Lefty Gurnet. Washington won a pennant last year largely through the superhuman pitching of Gen eral Alvon Crowder. Another season for the General, who is getting along in years, hardly can be expected. The tact that Clark Griffith has been shopping tor a pitcher speaks volumes on the weak ness of the Washington club. In the National league, the Cardinals begin the race with strength in every department. Last year, even though the ."' team led the league in run making, there was discord under the management of ' Gabby Street. With Frisch in the saddle, and with the best reserve a club could ask for, the Cards should win 100 games, ' The Bt. Louis entry wlU nave a aisunci eage on ine Giants in punch. Pitching car ried the New Yorkers to a pennant last year. With the lively ball that the league ba adopted tor 184, I do not ' regard pitching with the same respect that had to be accord, ed last season. The real threat to the Cards' supremacy will be the Cubs. Strengthened material ly in the bludgeoning depart ment with the addition of Chuck Klein In the outfield Chicago will have as hard a ' hitting crew as there is in the National league. If Guy Bush, Lon Warpeke and the rest of the pitching staff can master the lively ball, the Cnbs will have what they need to best the ; Cards. .... e ' ' The dark horses In both leagues will be the teams I have picked for fourth place Detroit In the American league, and Pittsburgh in the National. Cochrane' Tigers loom np on paper as the best young team in the younger circuit. The Mick is counting heavily on Schoolbtfy Rowe's arm to does, the pitching will ' 'be amply taken care of. Goose - Goslln has one more good year In his system, and he'll Just about make that Tiger out field of Pete Fox, Goslln and Gerald Walker one ot the best wreaking crews in the majors. The Pirates, who bogged down last year frightfully for want of a first class hurler, seem to have strengthened the pitching staff materially in the addition of Red Lucas, whom they obtained from the Cin cinnati Reds. Lucas, with the possibility that rookie Ralph Blrkofer will come through, should give the Pirates plenty ot pitching. The Waners, Ltndstrom and Arky Vaughn, the shortstop who has been pounding the lively ball for homers all through the spring training circuit, should supply plenty of heavy shelling. Ewauna Players Building Field Work on the new Ewauna base ball field, now under construction at East Main and South Sixth streets, Is rapidly nearlng completion.- The field was leased by the team from the company. Employes hare divided them selves Into four teams, and tb first ot the departmental league games will be played on Monday - afternoon. The regular Ewauna team meets Cblloquln there on Sunday. A benefit dance to raise funds for constructing a grandstand will be held at the Moose hall to night. There are practically no llllter etes In Germany and Switzerland.

The Missions rose to second place Thursday by taking their third straight game from the Han Francisco tteaia. 1 to 1.

Er- vin Brame was relieved on the Mission mound by Wayne Os borne In the fifth Inning when the Baals earned their lone tally on three singles. Los Angeles protected Its posi tion at the too ot the standings by downing Hollywood . tor the third straight time in anotntr I to 1 contest that was a pitching duel between Fay Thomas ot the Angels and Tom Sheehan of the Stars. Thomas allowed six hits, Sheehan seven. Outfielder Smead Jolley hit a home run tor Holly wood lone score, and First tiats- man. Jim Oglesby accounted for one of the Angels' runs by an other homer.

HUNTING CARiNERA-BAER GUT DISPUTED Champion's Manager Squabble With Gar den Officials, in NEW YORK. April IS. (CP) Madison Square Garden's battle of the 10 per cent neared a show down today. It's really a simple battle al though It sounds complicated and Is ao Important that it might rob the Garden of Its halt million dollar Prlmo Carnera-Mnx llaor heavyweight championship fight. Item Is Overlooked. The master minds handling ar rangements tor the fight over looked the Item when the con tract was signed and sealed, and for nearly a week now the Gar den bosses have been treated to a fancy htadach. The fracas started when the Garden and Louis Soresl, head man of Camera's board of man agement, tound they disagreed as to the payotr. camera, accord ing to a contract signed - before the present challenger was deter mined, Is entitled to 87 H per cent ot the net receipts of any heavyweight title fight In which he takes part. Before the Carnera-Buer fight finally was arranged, the Garden drew In the milk fund, pledged 10 per cent ot the net. The net is the gross intake, less federal and state tax on tickets. Soresl Has Edge. The Garden wants to pay ear ners 37 H per cent of the amount left after the milk fundurs have been given their cut. This Is be cause the agreement with th fund calls for such a division ot the spoils.. On th other hsnd, ear ners wants the 37 14 per cent to be taken before the milk fund cut is subtracted. Soresl has nothing to lose snd everything to gain by holding out for his full cut. If the contract with the Garden was tossed over board Soresl could deal with the milk fund directly, or, tor exam ple, with Jack Dempsey or Tim Mara, or all three, and hold the fight In the Yankee stadium. The Garden folks, while they would have to give up the dllferonce (It imminli In nnarlv 119.0001 probably; would prefer to lose thkt slice than to surrender tne pres tige, ot staging the best heavy weight show since Dempsey-iun- ner Nos. 1 and 2. The arithmetic is fairly simple. If the net should run as high as 1500,000 (and such a total Is easily nossibte) Camera's 31 H per cent, according to the 8oresl contract, would amount to $187,- 000. The Garden position is tnat Camera should take 37 per cent of the $450,000 which would be left. after the milk fund got Its 10 per cent. Such a cut would be $168,750. rne amorence is $18,750. The difference Is more than Camera rot as his purse for defending bis title against Tom my Loughren. Neither Baer nor Ancll Hoft man, his manager, has been heard from, but it Prlmo got his 37 the way he wants It, it's likely that the opposition would ask for their 12 per cent on the same basis. .
