Husky Young Backstop Smites Pill for Two Homers 'Robby' Shines in Field. dw.h nion mi lionu Reveries of a Bowler BY JAMES M. GOULD. PHARR, March 17. After Jess Hainea had held the Athletics helpless for six innings of the first game of the long series between the Cardinals and Athletics at Mercedes yesterday.

Manager Rickey decided to send in young Walter Schulz. When Haines left the battle, the count was 6-1 in favor of St. Louis. Before Schulz was pulled, he had put the enemy in a position to tie the score, because of a flock of free passes. Sherdel was finally sent in to relieve him, but the tieing run came over In the first half of the ninth.

However, the Cardinals were not to be gainsaid and tallied the winning run with no one out in their half of the final session, making the score of a very interesting battle 7-6 and giving first blood to St. Louis in the inter-league class. Janvrin's hitting was responsible for a flock of runs for the Cards and the whole team showed beautifully in the first important scrap. About 800 saw the game. The afternoon was extremely hot.

Leifield would have the major leagues change the present playing rules so that pitchers would not be compelled to take a turn at bat.

Hi idea is to have each major league club carry one or two old-time star along solely for the purpose of in place of the boxnien. This wotrld enable the fans to again pay homage to their former idols and the rising generations who read of the d. lints of these celebrities would at least have the pleasure of seeing them. The plan suggested by Leifield is a feasible one nnd it warrants due consideration from the magnates.

By a Staff Correspondent. BROWNSVILLE. March IT. When Manager Rickey took his Cardinals south, he announced his intention of playing Cliff Heatheote on first base in the exhibition games that had been planned.

As there will be two or three squads operating on the trip back toward St. Louis, no change was made in this plan, even after the purchase of Jack Fournier had become an accomplished fact. And yet, in the first regular game of the exhibition series that in Dallas on March 6 Cliff did not play at the bag at all, but went to right field, while Jack Smith took over the infield job. Cliff Enrna l'lnee. The sudden move could mean but one thing that Rickey had made up his mind that the one sure member of his 192o outfield was to be this brilliant kid from Y'ork, Pa.

Therefore, his mind made up, there was no use, the Card chief figured, in using Cliff anywhere but where he would play during the championship season. Heatheote was one of the first of the players to get into condition and. from the very first day, has surprised even those who knew of his ability by the wonderful qualities of his play. In practice games and lie works just as hard in these tilts as in regular games he has far outshone any of the other gardeners. To be fair, neither McHenry nor Shotton has had an even break so far as general health goes, nnd their sivkness has kept them back, of course.

QMJiS. Herman Heitzenroeder. swinging like an old rusty gate, won from Paul Murdock of Kansas City on a technical knockout in the third round of the main event at the South liroadway Athletic Club last night. Referee Walter Heisner stopped the milling after the bell had saved Murdock from a clean knockout at the end of the third, when It was apparent that Murdock was in no condition to come up' for the fourth. Heitzenroeder floored the Kaw City boxer three times during the third round.

Pete Macklin outpointed Charlie Silvers In the eight-round semi-wlndup and Young Dundee won a point rcruict over Gene Riley in the opening bout. A crowd estimated at close to saw le show. It was apparent from the start of the second round that Heitzenroeder planned to make short work of Murdock. The South St. Louis favorite did not do much In the first ranto.

devoting rao of his time to feeling out his opponent. Murdock won the round easily, using a snappy left jab and an right cross. When the gong sounded for the second. Iicitzenrot-der rushed from his corner like a maddened bull. He swung both hands and caught Murdock several stinging blows on the jaw.

The Kansas City scrapper was bewildered and began covering. He tried to evade "Heilz." but the local heavy followed him about the ring, swinging rights and lefts galore at Murdock's covered bead. He managed to get in a few solid blows that bun. Murdock attempted to right back unJ dropped his guaro. Hough Weather for "Heilz" saw the opening and planted a pile-driving right cross on the visitor's chin.

Murdock staggered about the ring covering up. Heitzenroeder in the meantime was swinging his arms as fast as be could, landing heavy blows on Murdtx-k's body and head. The Kansas City boy managed to weather the storm and staggered back to his Corner. At the start of the third. Heitzenroeder again rushed.

Murdock ducked at left lead to the face, but in doing so ran into a swinging right upper-cut and dropped to the floor for a count. He managed to get to his feet at "nine." "Heitz" boibaided Murdock's head merrily when the latter to his feet. About six seconds before the round ended, the local mauler dropped his opponent again with a powerful right to the stomach. Referee Heisner started to toll off the seconds and reached the count of eight, when "Chick" Johnson. Murdock's manager, tossed in the sponge.

The bell sounded at the same time, ending the round. Murdock was prostrate on the canvas and was carried back to his corner by his seconds, who worked over hitn desperr.tely trying to revive him. Jt was evident that he could not continue and Heisner stopped the boot. Marklln Urata Sll-er. Pete Macklin, exhibiting his usual willingness to fight, kept the fans wild throughout the eight-round smi-windup with vnarlie Silvers.

Silvers, a clever boxer, gave Macklin a good run. During the first four rounds. Silvers had a slight shad. in three nnd one was even. He outboxed Mm-klin cleanly.

Starting the fouith. Macklin began one of his hurricane rushes and crowded Silvers about the ring, getting in somf mifhty stiff blows on Silvers' head and body. It was Macklin's round by a shade. The sixth, seventh nnd eighth also went to Macklin, who used the same tactics in these rounds that he ptsrsticd In the fifth. Silvers held on in the eighth and Macklin won this round by a big margin.

Spoiling Promising Hoy. Young Dundee beat G. ne Riley. As was expected, some wise handler has not hold of Riley and is teaching him In box. Riley was funny latit night.

He kept his punch locked up und as prettily as some of thej old women boxers we have around St. Louis. Good night. Mr. Riley! You're a goner! The professors or the manly art of self-dt fense have got a-hold of yon.

The Athletics were powerless against Haines in their third, fourth, fifth and sixth. Rickey allowed Joss to call it a day when the sixth was over and called on Schulz to perform.

If Strong were a meadow man he would be a very welcome adjunct to Burke's club, but he has played first basa since his sand-lot days and he does not want to try for any other position.

Gene Robertson also made some of Burke's regulars fit up and tak notice of his work.

The dashing young shortstop helped materially in the Yannigans" success by poling two ingles out of four times up, but it was his sensational fielding rather than his stlckwork that attracted attention.

Monnig H. Schlenk or You know what Palladium masquerades are. 'Ntiff said. However, no matter what the rea-" sons have been, Heatheote lias been the brilliant performer and has so impressed observers who have watched him down here, nnd this includes Manager Rickey, that nothng but the most rosy predictions are made for him during the coming campaign. And there is no one on the club whose success would be more welcome, for Cliff is a general favorite with every member of the squad.

Oetting Down to Kirst. Heatheote is one of the speediest men in the game, and particularly does his fletness show. up in his break for first after hitting the ball or laying one down. Jack: Smith probably is a better all-around base runner right now and probably could beat Cliff in a straightaway race, but iri getting to first Heatheote is without a peer on the club. He can hit a ball straight at an nnd If that gentleman is only obliging enough to fumble for the fractional part of a second, he might just as well not make the throw at all.

Thus doe this "break" turn many an ap-partfrtly certain "out" into a potential run. And it must be remembered, too, that this player is a mere kid. He is 22 now, and. living the clean life he does, should be an asset of the Cardinals for many years, with the chnnce that he will show improvement every season.

There has been some talk of the Cardittals getting another outfielder a veteran of the game with a sweet batting record. There have been some attempts made in that direction, the matter still stands where It was before he Rickeymen came south. But and this is certain no matter how great a star is obtained by trade, purchase or otherwise, St. Louis fn.ns can assure themselves that when the umpire yells "Play ball!" at Cardinal Field on April 14, one Clifton Heatheote will be out In the outfield waiting to pull them down. 391 370 344 1105 Tigers In St.
