Wiesner is a defending Drake champion, one of three in the field. The others are BUI Ban gert, the opera-singing Missouri athlete who can toss the shot better than 52 feet, and Harold Fisher, the Miami (OJ university high hurdler. RalniersBuy Outfielder .

Due to the fact that the boys seldom make a second appearance after a lesson with the sleeper hold, it seems unlikely that the hooded hoodlum can survive where others have taken the count. Mat addicts have been hopefully praying and waiting to see someone guzzle Mr. Stoneface. He has barely escaped assassination here several times, but always seems to at least break even by hook or crook. This may be it tonight, but ' even if the "Mask" does skid by once more, there will be plenty of torrid action for the crowd with Tony Morelli slated to battle it out with Tony Ross in tho cmi-winrfiin and "Blood and Guts" David- son booked to clash with Gloomy Gust Johnson in the opener. Wally Moss will referee the clambake and the first tusle is scheduled to get underway at 8:30 p. m. Ted Williams Greatest Hitter - According to the ball players who played with him and against him, Ted "the Kid" Williams was the boy to have on your side when the chips were down. : Williams had everything when he was at the plate, but patrol ing the outfield was a different matter. Fielding, to Ted, was just something to do between times at bat and because of that atti tude on his part, Joltin" Joe DiMaggio was far and away the bet ter ball player. TiiMsioBin was a team man. Williams wasn't. But when it came to the old clutch one run behind, one man aboard, and two out in the last of the ninth Williams was the boy. Rival players and teammates say to a man that he was the greatest free hitter- in the business when he changed his Boston uniform for one of a flying lieutenant in the marine corps. His penchant at the plate was to explode tne oia appie into the far away bleacher seats and more than once he called his shot on a circuit clout. Whether he was as great a hitter as tne immortal JBaDe rtutn is a question that will probably never be satisfactorily answered. R raiis nf his temoerament. Williams made many enemies with teammates and spectators alike. He once said he would rather be a fireman than a ball player when irked by the jibes of fons. be a fireman than a ball player when irked ny tne jmes oi ians. with a bat since Babe Ruth and Murderer's Row! Georgia Peach '. To Don Baseball -Uniform Again CHICAGO. April 27 UP) Ty Cobb, one of baseball's greats who retired in 1928, is, going to don a uniform this season but not to play.

Tied for second place with the Yankees, because of a seven-run rally in the fourth Inning against New York yesterday, Mr. Mack had reason to think "this might be the year."
