Babe Ruth, who hit a single and a homer on his opening day with the Braves, was performing on contrast to his spring training record, where he got but ten hits in fifty four times at bat Xcy a .185 average. ROOKIE SHOWS FORM IN MOUND VICTORY; HITTING FEATURES By Associated Press The first outstanding pitching feat of the. 1935 major league season goes to the credit of a rookie, Darrell '(Cy) Blanton, strikeout king of the International League who went to Pittsburgh lasi season just in time for one losing appearance. Making his second major league start yesterday, the 27 year old right hander from Waurika, started throwing his fast one past the world champion St. Louis Cardinals the way he used to do it for Albany when he once fanned twenty rivals in one game.

He faced only thirty one batsmen, granted only one puny hit a single by Spud Davis in the second inning let only four runners reach first and none third, struck out six batters and wound up with a 3 to 0 triumph. One burst of base hits in the third brought all the Pirate runs as Cookie Lavagetto, Tom Padden, Paul Waner, Babe Herman and Arky Vaughan all connected for singles off Bill Hallahan. Other pitchers besides Blanton also performed brilliantly yester day. Silas Johnson, who was charged with twenty two Cincinnati defeats last season, shut out the Cubs 4 to 0 for the Reds' third straight triumph.

1 RACING NOTES There were five new trainers and one new Jockey in New York state today. The Jockey Club granted trainers' licenses to Matt Colford, Raymond Coon, Fred Kraft, Willie Robinson and Joseph Kahn. The jockey who was licensed is A. Pas cuma. Jockeys Wayne Wright and Paul Keester are running a neck and neck race for the honor of America's leading rider of winning horses.

Each has ridden seventv nine victors this year. Keester pulled up even with Wright yesterday when he piloted 4 year old Ima Count to victory in the "Cow puncher" at Arlington Downs. Requirements to enter the race for the Detroit challenge cup on June 29, a $25,000 added weight for age event at a mile and three sixteenths are unusual and limit the field to a mere handful of horses. The entries are. limited to 3 year olds which have won a total of $20,000 not a single purse of that amount or 4 year olds which have earned twice that sum.

As fast as owners are shipping horses north from Havre de Grace for the opening of the Jamaica meeting tomorrow, fresh horse flesh is pouring in to the Maryland track from the West and South west, insuring against any interruption of large fields. eran Fred Marberry on the hill, limiting the Detroit Tigers to six hits to give Chicago's White Sox a 3 to 2 triumph, and Lefty Grove, the lanky "if" man of the Red Sox, chalked up a victory in his first start although he was taken out for a pinch hitter in the seventh when Boston scored six of the runs that brought a 10 to 4 triumph over Washington. Lefty Watson Clark and Johnny Babich of Brooklyn also shared in hurling honors. Each won a 4 to 2 victory over the Braves in the Patriot's Day doubleheader. Clark also drove in two runs.

Babich, who fanned Babe Ruth three times, got the benefit of Danny Taylor's first inning homer which, with the bases full, provided all the Dodgers' afternoon runs. Hit the Ball Philadelphia teams took most of the headlines for hitting. Led by Dolph Camilli, who banged out two homers for a total of four in two days and knocked in seven runs, the Phillies hammered out 23 hits and an 18 to 7 victory over the Giants. The Athletics took the home run route to a 6 to 5 victory over the Yankees that completely ruined Pat Malone's American League debut. Bob Johnson duplicated Taylor's feat of hitting a homer with three on base after Wally Moses had walloped Malone's second pitch for the full distance.

NAME HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH SATURDAY EVENING APRIL 20, 1935 gDITEDBYWEtLINGT0N6.JOWS 'TME OLD TIMER A OLYMPIC STARS SHARE jPOTUGHT Clyde Coffman Heads Field in Kansas Track Start Lawrence, April 20, (IP) Two former University of Kansas athletes and members of the United States Olympic team in 1932, shared the spotlight in the 13th annual Kansas Relays oday. Clyde Coffman, competing unattached, was leading a field of sixteen at the halfway mark in the decathlon being scored under the new Finnish standard, and Glenn Cunningham, now a graduate student at the University of Iowa, was down for a mile run.

Without winning a single one of the five events yesterday, Coffman gained the front position scoring 3723 points. Lovett Burk, University of Oklahoma, with 3584 points was second, followed by a teammate, Elmo Hewes, with 3486 points. Opposing Cunningham, king of the milers both indoors and out, were Glen Dawson, Tulsa. and Harold Manning, Wichita, and a pacing relay team of Kansas runners. Not After Record "They ought to beat me easily," remarked Cunningham, "I'm not worrying about any records in this race." Whether this statement could be interpreted to mean the "Elkhart Express" would make no serious effort to lower his own world's record of 4.06.7 had the track followers guessing, but they were hopeful the pacing team might spur Cunningham to blaze a new Kansas Relays mark.

He made the existing record of 4.12.7 in defeating Gene Venzke, University of Pennsylvania star, last year.

Dickinson College brings its great intercollegiate baseball team to town today to clash with the Swarthmore College nine in the second contest cf the year for both teams. Swarthmore opened its season more than a week ago, while the invaders knocked the lid off the campaign Wednesday by turning in a 5 to 4 victory over Bill Ullery's Susquehanna Crusaders.

(I One by one the problems which stared Manager Joe McCarthy in the face before the training season began seem to have been solved until now the YanKees' leader feels well satisfied that his baseball ma chine will go places in the current pennant race. McCarthy apparently is convinced that George Selkirk is the right man for the right field post vacated by Babe Ruth. The sopho more outfielder has the punch, speed, defensive skill and, what is most important to the Yankees' scheme of things this year en thusiasm. Selkirk should be more effective this year, for he has loosened up considerably at the plate. The muscular fielder was quite a wrestler a few years ago, and as a result his muscles were not as free and pliable as a ball player's should be for complete efficiency.

To "Doc" Painter, Yankees' trainer, must go the credit for "loosening ud" the youngster. Red Rolfe is McCarthy's 'hope for plugging the gap at third base. The hot corner has been a head ache to "Marse Joe" ever since he took up the Yankees' reins. It has never been covered to his complete satisfaction.

This announcement was made yesterday by college officials. The A's were scheduled to be the guest or the Kiwanis Club here two weeks ago, but rain canceled the game and also the luncheon.

Since the Rotary Club holds its weekly dinner on Thursday, the Carlisle Kiwanis Club asked the Rotarians to sponsor the luncheon. 3)Sport Slants BYX ALAN GOULD The Yankees' manager has experimented with Ben Chapman, Joe Sewell, Tony Lazzeri, Frank Crosettl, Jack Saltzgaver, Myril Hoag and now Rolfe. Rolfe played twenty six games at third during the 1934 championship season and was stationed there in the preliminary games in the South this spring. He has Im proved considerably anu promises to fill the position as it has not been filled since the days of Jumping Joe Dugan. Red is not the fielding wizard that Dugan was nor is he likely to develop to the point where he can be classed with Joe as a third baseman, but he is a steady fielder and a good hitter to boot.

Dixie Walker's arm seems to nave completely recovered. Walker was used in most of the spring training games only because McCarthy was anxious to see what he could do. As soon as the Yangees' boss saw that Combs was his old self, he set about testing Walker thoroughly. HiU Ready to Stick Then, too, there is Jesse Hill, the speed boy who flashed such brilliant form at bat and in' the field with Newark last season. Up for the third time, he appears to be ready for a regular outfield job.

With the veteran Combs on the job the outfield will not be down to any noticeable degree, for the Colonel has staged a remark able comeback after the serious in jury sustained in St. Louis last summer. Mccartny has nad a warm spot in his heart for Combs since their Louisville days. That the Yankees will mfes the color and drawing power of Babe Ruth no one will deny, but McCarthy has followed the only sane course in trying to build a winner of fast, ambitious youngsters. The crowds may not pour out they did in the Babe's hey day, but the Yankees will draw their share of supporters if McCarthy can pro duce a pennant winner.

After all, the mam reason Colonel Jake Ruppert hired McCarthy to manage the Yankees was to put a winner on the ball field, wasn't SENATORS OUT FORJICTORY Want to Trim York Today With Lew Krausse on the Mound Harrisburg Senators look for an active afternoon on Island field today. Art Shires will play first base and Lew Krausse will do the pitching. York team of the Keystone League will be the attraction, and the card called for playing to start at 3 o'clock. Being a game with Class league team, the admission fee went down, and there was no reason for fans not turning out. The game Sunday will be at Lancaster with Poke Whalen's Keystone League team.

Manager Art Shires is setting the pace for hard work. He promises plenty action today. Ed. Cramer, the big port sider who twirled the first exhibition game for the Senators last Saturday, will pick up where Lew Krausse leaves off this afternoon, and he is another moundsman that Boss Shires is going to keep a padlock on as he is scheduled for a regular pitching berth with the Senators. Shires has dived into his war bag and came up with the following pitchers for Sunday's tilt with Lancaster, and they read, Lefty Hefflefinger an Buddy Lake, in that order.

Art has decided on his line up for this P. M. with himself on first, Del Young. Danny McGee and Bob Estalella rounding out the infield, with Frank McDonald, Ray Flood and Petrocky in the cow pasture and Chandler behind the plate. WANT THERAINB0W FOR CAMPAIGNING AGAINST WEETAM0E New York, April 20 ().

Harold S. Vanderbilt, who skippered the yacht Rainbow in a successful defense of the America's Cup last year, is diokering to buy the yacht from its syndicate owners and campaign with it this summer against Frederick H. Prince's Weetamoe. Vanderbilt was head of the syndicate which built the yacht last year and turned back the British challenger, T. O.

M. Sopwith's Endeavour in a series of races sailed off Newport, R. I. The well known yachtsman's plans include purchase of the terprise, also owned by the some syndicate and which stood off Sir Thomas Lipton's last challenge in 1930. Vanderbilt is said to be desirous of obtaining Enterprise's gear for use on the Rainbow and then junking the old cup defender.

Vanderbilt is expected to confer with Prince next week, when the latter returns from Europe, and map out a schedule of competition between the two class craft, prob ably starting with the New York Yacht Clubs annual regatta in June. On the Sidelines By EDWARD J. NEIL The dean of major league mana gers, Connie Mack, has picked Hal Trosky, Cleveland's clouting young first baseman, as the slugger most likely to succeed Babe Ruth as the Sultan of Swat in the American League Not a bad choice at that. The Indians' youngster did an amazingly fine job of pounding the ball lost season when he hit thirty five home runs while piling up an average of 330 and drove in 142 runs. This is his first full term in the big league, The 22 year old slugger from Norway, Iowa, like Babe Ruth, be gan as a pitcher, switched to the outfield and then wound up at first base.

He packs over 200 pounds of muscle on his 6 foot 2 inch frame and puts every bit of it behind his blows. He bats left but throws right. There are plenty who will dis agree with Connies nomination, Lou Gehrig has quite a following who insist that he actually has taken the Babe's place as slugger extraordinary of the American League. What's more they will let you know that he did it last year while the Bambino was still in the league. Gehrig's Statistics It's hard to disprove their claims for.

the Yankees' Iron Man not only led in home runs with forty nine but won the batting crown with a .363 average. He also hit the high est total bases, 409. In leaving his own Jimmy Foxx out of the picture, Connie Mack must appreciate that the shift from first base to the post behind the plate isn't likely to add power, to Jimmy bat. The lanky Hank Greenberg of the Tigers will bear a bit of watching in the slugging derby. He did well enough last season when he came mighty close to the league record when he gathered sixty three dou bles and pounded out a season's average of .339 to top Jimmy Foxx.

His home run card shows twenty six circuit clouts, Bob Johnson of the Athletics fnade quite a splurge last spring and wound up the season with thirtyafour homers. While any one of the foremen tioned may turn up as the 1935 slugging king it is hardly likely that any will really step into the Babe's old shoes for the plain and simple reason that the big fellow is still very much in them himself, The fact that he hit one of his home runs and practically beat the Giants single handed on opening day made everything else pale into insignificance. That Carl Hubbell happened to be the first victim In the National League added luster. Other sluggers may come' along to set the pace but there will be only one Sultan of Swat the Babe.
