'tCef Al Clark's SPOMS SHIOJP By AL CLARK, Sports Editor AND ALL HOSS PLAYERS DIE BROKE" THE BIG FELLOW in the tan gabardine suit dabbed at the corner of his mouth with a napkin and then lighted a cigaret. He puffed several times and then said: "I think I'll have me a bet on Crimea in the fourth at Tropical." ''Crimea's scratched," one of the boys volunteered. "Well," smiled the big fellow, "that saves me two bucks." "Bet it on another horse," the hanger on suggested.

"Flying Ark is the best bet in that shindig AL CLARK at Tropical," he touted. "Fellow," said the big fellow, "didn't' you ever hear that all hcss players die broke?" "Yeah" admitted the! hanger on, "I heard that. But it's me for the merry life and the quick one." Someone mentioned that the turf clan was giving a birthday party for Man o' War down at his Fairway Farm retreat in the heart of the horse race The Passing Parade "That's the Big Fellow remarked. "I guess old Red has a 21 candle cake coming his way at that." "What do you know about Big Red?" the hanger on said. "Not much," smiled the Big Fellow.

"Not much, chum." And then the Big Fellow started to talk and smile. "Do ou know," he said, fingering the lapel of the hanger on's coat, "that Red has a get entered in the Derby this year?" "Naw," admitted the hanger on. "What's his name?" Warlaine' aMOO to 1 "Warlaine. He's owned by Mrs. W.

A. Adams and he's 'the last of the Man o' War gets. Warlaine's the last o' the line. But there are a couple of half brothers and half sisters still going to the races that trace their blood lines to Old Red." "What's the winter book price on Warlaine?" the hanger on asked. "He's 100 to 1, chum," said the Big Fellow.

"But remember what I said about all hoss players, dying broke." "I'll have me a quid or two on that animal Warlaine," the hanger on said. And so the hanger on walked away and ou' of the conversation. "You talk as if you know a lot about Man o' War," I said to the Big Fellow. A $5000 Price Tag "I know him pretty well," admitted the man. "I remember when Sam Riddle, bought him from August Belmont.

Sam paid $5000 for Man o' War as a colt back in '18." "What do you think Big Red's worth now?" I asked. "I wouldn't know," the Big Fellow said. "But I did hear Mr. Riddle say once that he wouldn't take any price offered for him," he added. And that turned your reporter's mind 4 back to the day when Pennsylvania's lawmakers were debating legalizing horse racing in Pennsylvania.

That was a year or two ago. I remember big, red faced Fred Ford, a convincing talker, telling the hearing about Man o' War. Riddle always had one regret about Man oVWar, Ford said that. day. "It was because Big Red had never had the opportunity to race in his native state." I told the Big Fellow about that statement and he said he supposed Mr.

Riddle would feel the regre. of that fact. "But," said the Big Fellow, "I guess it's better the way it is. You heard me tell that other chap that all hoss players die broke." I admitted that I had heard his sage advice. Hoss Races Hurt Town "Well, son," said the Big Fellow, "hoss players die broke and hoss racing is hard as hell on the towns that support race tracks." I asked what he meant by that.

"Hoss playing," said the Big Fellow, "is for them as has and not them as has hopes to get." "You show me a town that has a race track near it and I'll show you a town that is financially embarrassed for three to six months after a race season," he said. "Take Baltimore," he said. "Baltimore merchants and business men will tell you that business is mighty bad after a race meeting at Old Hilltop. And why is it bad? Because people who can't afford it play the horses," lose their money' and so the citizens lose their purchasing power. That's why hoss playing is bad business." Big Red All Hoss That is how the Big Fellow feels about hoss players.

But the Big Fellow has a place in his heart for Man o' War. "He. was all hoss, Big Red," sighed the Big Fellow. "Think of it," he added. "Big Red has had 277 sons and daughters go to the turf wars.

And some of 'em were tops. And remember that Big Red won 20 of his 21 rades, too." And so the Big' Fellow lumbered to his feet. "Remember what I told you," he said, "all hoss players die broke, and that goes for hoss race towns, too." AMBERS GETS FISTIC RUN AROUND New York, March 30. Lew Ambers, the world's lightweight champion, is a victim of the run around today. Ambers, logical man to defend his lightweight crown against Featherweight Champion Henry Armstrong, will not get that chance because the New York Commission plans to permit Armstrong to jump division and meet Barney Ross, welterweight champion, May 26.

Armstrong, thanks to the largess of the New York solons, is hurdling one entire boxing diviskn in this arrangement, If Ross defeats Armstrong, the com.ny'tfion fays, Ross must meet Ambers, July 26. If Armstrong beats Ross, the commission says, Armstrong will fight Ambers for the later's lightweight title, Sept. 14.

Pnfl 1 Second FROST'S HEROICS PUZZLE DETROIT IN TITLE SERIES Hurricane Harry Scores Twice, Assists Once, to Win First Engagement By AL CLARK Hershey, March 30. They call him Hurricane Harry Frost The gentleman won his spurs and his new name here last night as the Hershey Bears, Eastern Amateur League champions, scored a 3 2 victory over the Detroit Holz baugh Fords in.4he first game of the best of five series for the United States Amateur champion ship. Hershey scored three goals last night. And the fine Italian hand of Hurricane Harry Frost was seen in all three of those counters. Mrs.

Frost's little boy scored two of the three goals and aided and abetted in the manufacturing of the third. Bill Morris set up Frost's first goal in the last moments of the first period and Frost put it away with neatness and dispatch. That was the lone goal of the first two periods. Hank Lauzon set up the second Frost counter. It was at the open ing of the third period and Frost.

snaking pass from, Lauzon, counted. That made the Detroit club a bit hot under their collective collars And the Detroit boys went to work First Rudy Zunich, defense. scored on James Baudino's pass. Then Leo Lamoreaux scored on a pass from Frannie Reulle. That squared the account until Mrs.

Frost's pride and joy went berserk. Tony Graboski, grabbing a pass from the nefarious Frost, smashed at the Detroit goal, hooked the puck through Goalie Ceyrance's guard and gave Her shey the victory. The Detroit style of play varies from that used by Herb Mitchell. Detroit masses its players in the scoring sector and depends en tirely upon passing and not poke dribbling for its scores. Hershey had little trouble solving the style Nick Damore had 31 saves and Goalie Ceyrance made 22 stops.

America's Olympic track and field coach in 1936, said today the Uited States would be handicapped in the 1940 games at Tokio because of the shift in time from summer to fall. "Fifty per cent, of the Ameri can athletes in the last Olympics were college undti graduates," said Robertson, track coach at the University of Pennsylvania. "If the games will be held in late Sep tember and October instead of August, the college athletes will be unable to make the trip unless their schools grant them a leave of absence.

DICKINSON PLANS TO REHIRE FOUR SPORTS MENTORS President Corson Says Entire Athletic Staff "Safe" For Next Year Carlisle, March 30. There'll be no changes in the coaching personnel at Dickinson College for the 1938 39 term. This was disclosed today by Dr, Fred P. Corson, college president and chairman of the athletic con trol board, who announced Dick inson's four head coaches in five major sports will be retained next year.

Dr. Corsons statement spikes the rumors, which really had no foundations, that Big Art Kahler, Dickinson's football instructor for the last three seasons, would be come head basket ball coach, sua ceeding the veteran Richard Andrews, who has been connected with the institution for. twenty seven years as basket ball and baseball coach and athletic trainer. Kahler, Who resigned from the Brown University basket ball post several weeks ago after six' sue cessful years, will become an as sociate professor on the Dickinson faculty next fall and will assist in guilding Dickinson huge intra mural athletic program. MacAndrews, long called the "grand old man" of the campus, will continue to pilot the court and diamond clubs in addition to helping Kahler with the football squad.

"Mac" finishes his twenty seventh season with Dickinson in June, during which time he has turned out many splendid teams for the century and a half old school. Forrest E. (Pop) Craver, an other "old timer" on the Dickin son campus, will again be at the head of the Red Devil track and field team, while Gardner Hays will stick as coach of the tennis aggregation. Hays has been instructor of the net squad for about six years. Coaches for the swimming and soccer teams are appointed from year to year and no announcement has been made regarding the pilots for the minor sports.

Dickinson's other minor sport, tennis, will be coached by Professor Wil bur Norcross. i Is BONURA'S BATTING TO IMPROVE HOPES OF SENATOR CLUB i Cronin Says American League Race Can Be Upset by Yankee Injuries By' GAYLE TALBOT Orlando, March 30 Let Stanley (Bucky) Harris tell about this approaching American League baseball race. Stanley is the still young and handsome manager of the left hand Wash ington Senators, and he has a story to tell. "Here," said Bucky, making himself comfortable, I have a much better ball club than I had last year, when we finished sixth. That's a cinch, because we now have Zeke Bonura on first base.

He drove in 100 runs for the White Sox last year, while Joe Kuhel was knocking in 61 for us. Race Wide Open "All right. So you ask me do I think we can climb out of sixth place, being as we now have Bon ura. All I can answer is: Will you kindly look over those five teams that finished ahead of us last year and try to pick out the one we're going to displace. "This American League right now is the toughest I've seen in my experience.

The Yankees naturally are favorites. Then, there is Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland and Boston Red all of whom finished ahead of us. The least thing could make a difference of three or four places in any one of these clubs. "It's so close, in my opinion, that an injury to anyone of the Yankee regulars, like Gehrig, Dickey and Dimaggio, could throw them out of first place. And, don't forget, they've been getting by a long time without any real hard luck of that sort.

The moment they slip a little bit they'll be caught and passed. And this Detroit bunch is hot. Red Sox Worries "If 'we're going to gain a notch, supposedly we'll have to do it at the expense of the Boston Red Sox. Have you seen that club, all right, then you know it's a good one. All Joe Cronin needs is for one of his young pitchers to come through and he'll be right up there in the fight.

And he's got five who answer that description. "So where does that put us? I don't know, honestly. I wouldn't be surprised if we finished sec ond or sixth again. I've got two young southpaw pitchers, Ken Chase and Joe Krekauskas. Both have all the stuff in the world, but both are wild as hares.

If both of them settle down and hold the opposition, we'll be up in the race. Otherwise, probably not. "We've got the hitting, plenty of it. There's enough of it in fact that Cecil Travis who hit .344 last season is in sixth place in my bat ting order. Our fielding is pretty good too.

It's just a case of finding some pitchers to go with Wes Fer rell, Monte Weaver and Jim Desh ong. "The most pleasant surprise I've had is Al Simmons. You know, we asked waivers on him during the winter and nobody wanted him. I'm glad now that nobody did. It must have hurt Al's pride, because he got himself in the best shape in years and is hitting the ball almost like he did in the old days.

And don be surprised if this Cincinnati team shows them some' thing in the National League. We played them the other day, and this new first baseman of theirs, Frank McCormick, can hit a ball a country mile."

While the crowd of more than 800 waited for Brown to show his wares at the Madrid, Daviscourt, the wiley mat veteran, managed to evade any damaging holds until close to the end of the match.

Daviscourt almost tore Brown's cauliflower ear off with a scissors hold, by making effective use of a knee wrap. After protesting the use of the wrap, and Referee Willie Clark's failure to take it off, Brown pulled the offending webb support of his adversary's knee and heaved it out of the ring. In short order thereafter Brown gained a toe hold and pinned the Calif ornian. It was a rough bout all the way with Daviscourt opening up with the rough stuff. Brown retaliated, and as a result there was considerable slugging.

The best bout of the evening was the third event on the card as George Becker, of Germany, and Tony Martinelli, New York, grappled to a 30 minute draw. Both boys were extremely fast, and put on a clean match. They showed practically every hold in' the wrestling book, but neither was able to gain distinct advantage. Martinelli appeared to have1 the German pinned to the mat on one occasion, but Becker wriggled) out of the tight spot. On the other! hand Becker spun Tony around several times and tried for abody press, but Martinelli evaded him.

Sammy Cohen pinned Broncto Valdez with a body press in the semi windup finish bout in 18.3i0 minutes. This match developd considerable rough tactics. Cohn got into a scrap with a spectator, and someone heaved a pop bottle at his head, but missed.
