SHIPYARD AND BOTTLERS TO CLASH TONIGHT _*• ——- *---i ” i - Sports Hodge-Podge BY CARLE HODGE If the fellow sitting beside you at the Shipyard-Pepsi Cola game out at the stadium tonight wears a heavy beard and smoked glasses and sneaks a camera in, don’t get ex cited. He won’t be an Axis agent, but maybe a pro league spy. That’s just how good the local semi-pros are. No fooling. Anytime those Shipbuilders don’t put on a classy game, you can mark it up in your diary as something wrong some where. And if the PCers play like they have most of the season, it won’t be a pushover for the Shipyarders, either. Sports Carbon: “We won’t win the war,” Senator Happy Chandler of Kentucky recently told newsmen, “by scrapping our greatest game. We can lose the war by losing our morale. Baseball is a morale builder. We must have it.” Wilmington High’s last hopes for an Eastern confer ence athletic championship this school year rest with the tennis teams, Frances Roebuck’s Phantom Aces and Queens. Only Goldsboro stands between the Hanover players and the loop crown and a crack at the state title. And judg ing by their records so far this year, the locals have more than a good chance. We like this one, written by a Flatbush fan and printed by Dan Parker in the New York Mirror: Tragedy In Brooklyn Things out here in Brooklyn Have reached a pretty pass ’Cause very soon—I think by June— MacPhail w7on’t have no gas! Who’s gonna needle Walker ? Who’s gonna fight with Lip ? Who’s gonna screech and make a speech Should Medwick start to slip? Who’s gonna bait the writers Who call a spade a spade? Who’s gonna yell like Merry Hell If Babe Phelps makes the grade ? Yep, things look black in Brooklyn; Oy, oy, alack, alas! Our fav’rite game won’t look the same— MacPhail won’t have no gas! Lee Rochelle, who’s been beating the drums for another baseball league here since way back in the fall, has found success—too much of it. Early this week, Lee had four teams on the line for the new loop and everything was rosy. But at a meeting last night another club applied for admission. Since that would throw schedules into confusion, his problem now is whether to admit the team and look for another or refuse those boys who really want to play ball. * At the session members of the circuit decided on the name Seaboard league. Present teams are the Shipyard Fit ters, Su-Ann Shoemen, Sunset Park and Masonboro Clam diggers.

TIGERS BLAST BOBO AND NATS Detroit Squares Accounts With Ex-Mate To Defeat Washington, 6 To 2 DETROIT, May 13.— (JP) —The Detroit Tigers squared accounts with their former mate.

CAPE FEAR LOOP CONTESTSLATED TO BE TOSS-UP Close Game Between Pepsi Cola, Shipbuilders Plan ned For Stadium By R. J. POWELL. The Cape Fear baseball associa tion offers Wilmington its only night diamond attraction of the week tonight at Legion stadium at 8:15 when two of the loop’s most outstanding members—Pepsi Cola and Shipyard Progressive—collide in a crucial contest that will un tangle the first-place mixup in the league. Another little item that may prove to be a crowd-drawer is that fans may be watching the Cape Fear first half champions on the field tonight as each contesting club has an excellent chance to cop the cake although it is too early yet to shove the other two teams out of the picture. Tonight s fracas, rated a toss-up, has all the earmarks of being one of the best games here this season Pepsi Cola plans to place a strong combination on the field with Norwood Skipper, an excep tionally good night ball hurler, do ing the elbowing with George Nethercutt on the receiving end. With Skip on the mound the Colas can use their other two hitting hurlers, Snag Allen, and Johnnie Edens in some other spot and thereby have a more potent bat ting lineup. Game time will prob ably find Edens or Farmer at first base with W. S. MacXeithan at second and Allen or Edens holding the corner cushion with Rowan at short. The outfield patrol* will be picked from among Amos Carter, Yates Hawkins, Hunker Benson. Billy Pieper, and Richard Farrow. Dempsey will be ready for utility work. The shipyard team will likely stand pat on the same lineup that has been giving the opposing pitch ers the headache for the past four tilts. Righthanders Gaddy or Bros nam or Southpaw Holland will be on the slab, throwing to Taylor be hind the bat. Lambert will guard the initial sack with Wejarnett and Jordan making up the keystone duo and Bell attending to the third base duties. Home Run Hitter Urbon, league-leading batter Hog gy Davis, and Slugger McCord will take care of the outfield positions A public address system with loudspeaker will be used to keep the fans informed of the facts as the game progresses. _v_ VPI NINE BOWS STATE, 14 TO 10 BLACKSBURG, Va„ May 13.—jUP) —Shortstop Julius Rubin of Nor folk, was the whole show today as lie led Virginia Tech to a 14-10 triumph over N.

PHILA..PA. t Bleacher Fans Asked To Return Baseballs DALLAS, May 13.—(£>)—Hey you up there in the bleachers: If a foul ball comes your way nab it but don’t take it home as a trophy for the mantle piece. Give it hack to the home club. If you don’t the Texas league may not be able to fin ish out the season. President J. Alvin Gardner received word today that the sporting goods company from which the league purchases its baseballs will close all its stores June 1 except in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. Material not already used for baseballs will go to the govern ment. Texas league clubs each buy from 100 to 125 dozen balls during the season. They now have 20 or 25 dozen on hand and will be able to obtain a limited number from the Chi cago plant. “We believe we will have suf ficient baseballs to finish out the season, at least with co operation from the fans,” Gard ner said. In ord.er to conserve the sup ply the league is cutting pre game batting practice from 30 to 20 minutes and issuing an appeal to the fans to return all balls that go into the stands. “If a baseball strikes con crete it usually is rendered un usable,” Gardner said, “but a ball that is caught or does not strike metal Qr concrete can be used again. “I would like to urge the fans to take the balls they get in the stands to the club box offices and obtain passes to fu ture games for them instead of taking them home. If there is an opportunity to catch a ball before it strikes the stands or seats, so much the better.” Gardner said the situation in the Texas league undoubtedly would be general. ;The Baseball Standings A a m YESTERDAY’S RESULTS: National League Boston 6; Chicago 5.

SHIPYARD BEATS DOW TEN, 8 TO 6 Opticians Defeat Appren tices And Firemen Take Railroad Softballers The strong Shipbuilder softball team defeated Ethyl-Dow last night at Robert Strange diamond and knocked them into a first-place tie with City Optical for leadership in the Victory league. The Builders combed Slugger Brown for eight solid blows and eight runs to win in an exciting 8 to 6 game. Gus Brittain's single in the fifth after a walk and a single by Hodges iced the game, but singles by Keith and Huffman in the sixth scored another run for good measure. In the nightcap City Optical beat the Apprentice Maroons by an 11 to 3 score to pull up into a tie with Dtaw with three wins and one loss each. Shipp won his second game of the year as he sat the Maroons down with six hits. In the Hanover league game the Firetnen made it five in a row as ttiey won a well-played game from A.C.L.

Causey in commenting on the program said Cowboy Luttrell, one of the grapplers, told him, ‘I don’t like those wrestling royals. They are dangerous. Just give me any man on the card and I’ll take care of him in my own style, but when you get a bunch of men in there, anything can happen. And another thing, why did you bring in that Massey to referee. I don’t like him, and never will.’ But, Causey said, the wrestling royal will go on and Luttrell will be in it. with Massey as the ref eree. All of the wrestlers, he said, are tough fellers, who are able to take care of themselves, and frankly ‘I am in favor of this novel method of making matches.’ The first two pinned will wrestle in the opening match, set for two out of three falls with a sixty min ute time limit, while the victors will be matched in the main event, scheduled for the best two out of three falls with a ninety minute time limit. Principals on the card, which Causey promised will be packed with action, will be Cowboy Lut trell: Sailor Barto Hill, Ed Strang, ler White and Chief Osley Bird Suanooka. Doors at Thalian Hall will open at 7:15 o’clock with the first event scheduled to begin at 8:40 o’clock. RODS and REELS Complete Equipment for the Surf Fisherman PICKARDS 209 Market St. Dial 3224 JIMMY LYNCH IS DUE TODAY He Will Supervise Appear ance Of ‘Death Dodgers’ At Stadium Friday With Jimmie Lynch due here to day from his ranch in Texas, final arrangements are being made for the presentation of the sensational Jimmie Lynch Death Dodgers at Legion stadium Friday night, the program being slated to start at 8:30 o’clock. Manager Irish Horan announced yesterday that several new per formers would be included with the thrill show this season, due to the departure of others from the ranks to enlist with Uncle Sam’s fighting forces. Missing from the group that appeared here last season will be Jimmie Kelly, young Pennsyl vania driver, who is now serving with the army air corps in Florida; Jimmie Sakobie, another young driver, who is now stationed at Fort Bragg, and Arky McNab, of McNab, Ark., who entered army service at the close of the past season. Daredevil Lynch, who gained na tional recognition with his thrill show.s at the Cleveland air races and at the World’s fair at New York, will personally perform with the daredevil troupe here, this be ing his first public appearance in Wilmington. Manager Horan announced that several new stunts would be at tempted by the Death Dodgers Fri day night, these having been ad ded since the fall show here last October. The sensational events of last season’s show-, however, are being retained, these including the death-defying dive bomber crash, one of the most dangerous auto mobile stunts ever attempted. Daredevil Bill Horton, of El Paso, Texas, who performed in this spine-tingling event last year, will again be at the wheel for this sensational event, in which he cir cles the full track, races up an elevated rampway to a height of 12 feet, then catapults his ma chine through space for a dis tance sufficient to hurdle a large passenger bus, finally crashing in to the side of another parked auto mobile. --V Jim Tobin Paces Tribe To 6-5 Win Over Sox BOSTON.
