BAOM Injuries Jinx Major League Teams' Plans THE If Sounds familiar OAJLY JfEWS By JACK HAND Press Sports Writer Baseball's iodine list assumed serious proportions today with such key men as Joe Cronin of the Red Sox, Joe Medwick of Iho Giants I Jimmy Foxx of the Phillies. Eddie! Miller of the Reds and Hershel' Martin and Mike Gnrbark of the i Yankees on the sidelines. Loss of Cronin. perhaps for the season, upset Boston's infield plans. When the skipper broke his leg Thursday he was playing third base and Acting Manager Del Baker used Rookies Nick Polly and Jack Tobin at the position in recent losing games.

Medwick was unable to open the season in left field for the New Nationals, yielding to Freshman Steve Filipowicz because of a back injury. Foxx, counted in Freddy Fitzsimmons' plans as his regular first sack- or. was able to play in few of the exhibition games because of sore feet and appeared only as a pinch hitler during the first week of the season. Martin collided with Centerfield- or Johnny Lindell chasing a long fly during the same game in which Cronin was hurt. Lindell's spikes clipped Martin a nasty cut across the nose and he wns out of the weekend series in Washington.

Catcher Garback of the Yanks had to take a rest because of an ear infection. A fall on the ice back in February broke Miller's left kneecap, giving Freshman Kermit Wahl a chance to play shortstop for Cincinnati. Vern Stephens of the Browns was benched by a jammed thumb for three days and a wrenched shoulder muscle kept Pete Gray, the one- armed rookie, out of the box scores for a few games. Monday was an open date in both leagues. A.

A. Play Halved By Weather By the Associated Press American Association baseball teams, plagued by cold or rainy weather since the season opened last Wednesday, took a day off as they moved to their third series in a week. Thus far, inclement weather has halted exactly half the schedule nd the current leaders, the champion Milwaukee Brewers and St. Paul, have played but one game each. Rain, cold weather and wet grounds combined yesterday to force postponement of four of five scheduled games.

In the other Kansas City beat Minneapolis, 5 to 1. The new series opens 'tomorrow, with Columbus at Indianapolis, Toledo at Louisville, Minneapolis at Milwaukee and St. Paul at Kansas City. From that schedule, of three games each, managers hoped there would come some semblance of a pattern of player strength on each team that could be followed the rest of the season. Manager Nick Cullop has nominated Owen Scheetz, veteran curve ball pitcher, to hurl the inaugural at Borchert Field.

Mike Kash will open for the visitors. With the teams moving further south, and with better weather forecast for the second half of the week, was hoped the current leaders would get the test the rest of ihe loop has been waiting for. In yesterday's only game, Gale PrmgJe and John Mahnen combined to hold Minneapolis to three scattered hits, and would have had a shutout had it not been for a balk by Mahnen in the fourth with a man on third.

'Jug' Girard Inducted into Army MILWAUKEE, April 24 Earl F. (Jug) Girard, 18, of Marinette, Freshman football star at the University of Wisconsin last fall, was inducted into the Army yesterday. Girard denied a report that he had signed a contract with a professional grid team and said: "I'm sticking with Harry Stuhldreher and Wisconsin until I graduate." Committee to Pick Commissioner Meets By HAROLD HARRISON CLEVELAND, April 24 Owners of the major league's 16 baseball teams were to lock themselves in a Hotel Cleveland room and. if some of them have their way. they'll stay there until they select a successor to the late Kenesaw Mountain Landis as high commissioner of the-sport.

If they succeed in agreeing on someone to handle the $50,000 a year job. they' Will have taken just one day less than five months to make the choice. As the time for the meeting approached there were almost as many persons mentioned in lobby gossip as there were magnates at the conference. Procedure for the day's sessions was ihis: A four-man committee Don Barnes of the St. Louis Browns Alva Bradley of the Cleveland Indians Phil Wrigley of the Chicago Cubs and Sam Breadon of the Louis has been considering a long list of possible choices to meet first.

They have been attempting to agree on a recommen- dation to the membership and that's what they hoped to do in this session. Two hours later the committee was to join the full group from the American and National LeagueS'and if 12 votes from a possible 16 can be mustered for one man, the commissioner will be chosen. Although one group of owners expressed belief they should stay in session this time until they can reach agreement, some of tHe sitters" considered it significant that most of the owners already have their train reservations to leave Cleveland tonight. Ford Frick, president of the National League; Lesslie O'Connor secretary to Landis, and Will Har' ndge. president of the American League, have been serving as a "three-man commissioner" andMt was believed that setup would be continued if v.

agreement failed "to materialize today. iD i a Manpower Commissioner Paul V. McNutt of Indiana had some lobby votes for the job.
