14 MONDAY EVENING HARRISBURG TELEGRXPH APRIL" 14, 1941 i 7 Tom Shrivei says JOE BUTLER paid a visit to the sports sanctorium to get a first hand report on the doings of the bowlers at St. Paul, and to paint a glowing picture of the re markable score of 716 turned in by Johnny Kitch. The conversation turned to impressions of the current A. B. C.

tournament at St. Paul, and before long the pencils were out and box car figures were appearing on the scrap paper. "How much money do you figure the bowlers brought into St. Paul?" asked Butler as we talked of strikes and spares. "Well, let's see how the figures mount up on this item," we answered, getting a pencil and going to work.

Both be handled in the Hershey Sports Arena, or possibly in our own Farm Show Building. Benefit to City Think of the benefit that such an event could do for the city of Harrisburg. And if the tournament went to Philadelphia the total money spent by the bowlers would bt in excess of $1,000,000, since most of them would bring their wives on a trip to a city of such historical importance.

In the matter of cash alone the A. B. C. is well worth the effort on the part of a city to obtain. Peoria, in Illinois, has often staged the classic, and Peoria is not any better than Harrisburg.

Next year the bowlers will be fiance of a hit until the last of at Columbus. In 1943 they will; the tenth, when Homan messed be in Buffalo. Then thj event goes West in 1944. But there is a good chance of getting it East in 1945, or 1946 and if it comes East the best spot that I can think of to hold the classic would be Harrisburg. In fact, Mr.

Sollenberger, at Hershey, is willing to listen to a plan to put the tournament in the Sports Arena. All he is worried about is a possible conflict with the hockey playoffs, an 1 that could be fixed in some way After all they are going to hold the A. B. C. in Buffalo in 1943 and they play hockey in that city.

So let's get busy. Bring the A. B. C. to either this city or Philadelphia, and everyone will benefit.

The first move is to pave the way for Sunday bowling, but this will no doubt ba done tonight when the Legislature takes up the present bowling bill. After the bill passes, it is up to the local Chamber of Commerce to get busy and bring the bowlers here. BLACK JACKETS WIN The Harrisburg Black Jackets pounded out an 18 to 10 victory over the Sbcko A. C. in a softball game played yesterday afternoon.

Start Final Week at Training Camp Camden, S. April 14. The Harrisburg Senators start their final week at this society mecca today, well satisfied with the results of the exhibition games played to date, and in fairly good condition for the forthcoming Inter state League campaign.

The Senators have been rolling i along in fine style against the best Yankee Blank teams in the Eastern League, andDod tQ ven erjes on Friday romped to their seventh 0 straight victory, a slaughter of the te the victims being the ine prosperity couia not iasi forever. Still laughing over the antics of the collegians, the boys went into battle on Saturday against sterner opposition and bowed to the Greensboro club of the Piedmont League, in ten hard a fered in the south, and halted the winning streak in effective fash ion. The bright spot in the defeat was found in the fact that the scored their first run in the third on an error Dy woman and a single by Topkins after the run ner had advanced on an infield out. So that run could hardly be charged to Brandt. the marker that put Harrisburg ahead 2 to 1.

Then Brandt got into a little difficulty in the fourth by walrting Walsh. The next batter sacrificed, scored on a long resounding triple by Pfeil, who planted the horse hide in the far reaches of right field. This blow scored both runners and when Gracey picked this particular time to be charged with a passed ball, Pfeil romped home with the third run of the inning, and Greensboro was in front 4 to 2. Schneider went to the hill for the Senators in the seventh, and right after he took the hill Bell's boys tied the score. The needed markers came over when Homan reached first on an error, and Parks walked.

The pair tallied after Billy Cox lined out a long single to left center. Schneider did not permit a sein up an easy roller from Dixon's bat for his second error. The miscuei seemed to ruffle Schneider for aj minute, and he worried so much about the runner that he put one, right down the alley for A minute later Decker was safe at third on a long triple, and Dixon was over the plate. Just to make sure of victory Decker came home following a long fly to center and the Greensboro boys had the ball game, 6 to 4. Now the Senators meet Charlotte in a home and home series, and later in the week repay the visit of the Greensboro nine.

A veteran Dickinson College baseball club returns from its annual Easter va cation today to prepare for its game with Delaware University, scheduled for Wednesday afternoon on Biddle Field. Richard MacAndrews, now in his thirty first year as head coach of the Red and White nine, will nominate his ace twirler, Bernie Keating, towering right hander, to face the Blue Hens, who annually boast of one of the outstanding small college teams in the East. Dickinson, eager to break into the victory column after dropping a 6 5 decision to Elizabethtown College in the opener when Mac Andrews Was laid up in the Car lisle Hospital with a stomach ail ment, will make one change in its starting line up. Wayne Sheppard, promising sophomore catcher from Salem, N. will replace Henry (Hank) Stojowski, a junior from New York City, behind the plate.

Sheppard was exceptionally impressive in the relief role in the season's curtain lifter. 200,000 May Turn Out As Trout Season Opens The State Fish Commission announced that everything is "in top shape" for the opening of trout season tomorrow with Pennsylvania's streams freshly stocked with more than a million trout. "Stocking has been virtually completed in most parts of the State," a commission spokes man said, "particularly in the central region. In the west, northwest and southwest, good progress has also been made. "The northeastern section has not been stocked too heavily, espe dally in Potter and Tioga coun ties, where deep snow kept the fish trucks from reaching the streams." The season officially opens at 12.01 a.

m. and the commission estimated 200,000 persons would whip lines into brimming streams on the first day. A year ago 250,000 took advantage of the opening day but fewer were expected this year "because many young men are in the Army." General rains over most of the State on Friday sent streams high up on their banks, the commission said, but they were now as "near normal" as usual at this time of year. For first day hopefuls, the commission recommended using for bait "garden hackle plain worms which make excellent trout bait Walters Hurls Well as Reds Blast Tigers Champs Collect 20 Hits Off Trout and Rowe in Slugfest Cincinnati, April 14, (JP) Boom ing out 20 hits, the Cincinnati Reds yesterday evened at two all their exhibition series with the Detroit Tigers by a 16 4 victory. Six Cincinnati hits were dou bles allowed on a ground rule for swats into folding chairs placed for Tuesday's opener.

Bucky Walters, working his first game after two full weeks of nurs ing a leg injury, gave nine hits in seven innings and looked good. Johnny Vander Meer finished. The Reds slugged Schoolboy Rowe from the mound in the fifth when Lonnie Frey opened with a single, Walters doubled and Eddie Joost swatted his second two bagger. Dizzy Trout fared little better in the last four frames. The game was tied at 2 2 until the last half of the fourth, when the Reds batted around, scored five runs on four hits and two walks and turned the game into a rout.

Boston Bruins Crush Detroit Take Stanley Cup in 4 Straight Games For New Hockev Record Detroit, April 14. The Boston Bruins were leaving here today, happy possessors of the Stanley Cup, emblematic of the hockey championship, and proud of their feat of taking four straight games! from the hapless Detroit Red Wings. The fourth and final victory was achieved on Saturday night by the score of 3 to 1 as 8125 fans watched with dismay in Olympia Stadium.

It was the first time in the history of hockey that a team has won the championship in four straight games, but there was no stopping the powerful Boston club once they reached the finals. Detroit fans had a few minutes of hope in the final game when the Red Wings scored first in the opening period and held their advantage going into the second period. But the Boston attack got under way seven minutes after the second period opened, and before the period was over the game was clinched by the New Englanders. Manager Jack Adams, of the Wings who, with his other troubles was running a fever, decided that lineup alterations were his only "last ditch hope of stopping the speeding Bostonians. He recalled Harold Jackson, benched in the last game, to the defense and restored Alex Mot ter to his center position on the line with Carl Liscombe and Bill Jennings.

Eddie Wares, right winger, who has been hampered with an injured right shoulder, was sent in to replace Eddie Bruneteau. The Wings' lineup juggling of the last ten days has been caused by injuries to Eddie Goodfellow, Joe Fisher and Wares. Goodfel low, playing coach, has a knee injury and Fisher is on crutches with a fractured ankle. Both were unavailable for the cup fin als. Even Goalie Johnny Mowers was bothered with a pulled leg muscle.

As for the confident Bruins, they rested their case with the duo of stars who led them to the ifirs't three victories Center Milt Schmidt and Goalie Frankie (Brimsek. Schmidt tops the play scorers with nine points, including five goals and four as sists, in ten games. ros. Boston Detroit G. D.

The American Automobile Association has announced that its contest board has refused to sanction the automobile race at Reading, on April 20, and that drivers who competed in it would forfeit their right to participate in A. A. A. races. Ted Allen, secretary of the contest board, said that Ralph Hank inson, promoter 01 tne neaamg Race, refused "flatly" to comply with a board decision which fined him for an infraction of the board's rules.

"This means that a number of star racing drivers, many of whom have proved their mettle in the Indianapolis 500 Mile A. A. A. sanctioned annual classic, will not be eligible for entry in the Reading Race," Allen said.

Allen said the Reading Race was "traditionally the curtain raiser of the spring racing season." It has been run under A. A. A. sanction for the last ten years. Juniata Perry Loop Set For Opening Mifflintown, April 14.

at Mil leratown H. S. first ball after Vice President Wallace and members of the two teams have participated in a flag raising ceremony in center field at Griffith Stadium. While today's game marks the beginning of the 1941 major league pennant scramble, other teams in the American and National Leagues will not play their first games until tomorrow. The 1941 Yankee team has been heralded as the equal of the New York Powerhouses which dominated the league for years.

Phil Rizzuto and Jerry Priddy, the sensational shortstop second base combination up from Kansas City, form the question mark that can make or break the Yanks' pennant chances. Rizzuto will start major league play this afternoon, but Priddy, who twisted an ankle two days ago, may not see action in the inaugural. Manager Joe McCarthy may be forced to shiit Joe Gordon back to his old post at second and entrust first base to rookie Johnny Sturm if Priddy is out of the opener. Gordon is expected to be the Yanks' regular first baseman. McCarthy indicated he would send southpaw Mario against the Senators.

Manager Bucky Harris of Washington planned to start Dutch Leonard, the knuckle ball artist who has given the Yanks trouble in the past. Optimistic over his 1941 squad, which includes several new faces, Harris said he would not be surprised if the Senators finished in the first division. Most Washington backers will be happy, however, if the team winds up a notch higher than the seventh place position of 1940. Three newcomers will be in the Senators' starting lineup Ben Chapman and Roger Cramer, veteran American League outfielders, and George Archie, rookie first baseman from the Pacific Coast League. Today will mark the ninth time that Mr.

Roosevelt has participated in the opening day ceremonies. The President missed his ball tossing chore a few years ago, but in 1917 when he was assistant secretary of the Navy, he raised the flag for a Washington opener. Good baseball weather was pre dicted.

(IP). The Chicago White Sox hopped on Dizzy Dean, Larry French and Bill Lee for ten hits and a 3 to 2 victory over the Cubs yesterday in the final dress rehearsal for both teams before the season openers Tuesday. The Cubs got both their runs off the veteran Ted Lyons, who pitched five innings. Jack Hallett then held the National Leaguers hitless in the last four frames. The Cubs won the spring series with.

their cross town rivals anyway, taking eight of 14 games. Dean, starting the game, yielded four hits and one run. Dominic Dallessandro hit a home run for the Cubs. Chicago (A) 001 101 0003 10 1 Chicago (N) 000 200 0002 7 4 Lvons. Hallot (6) and Tresh; Dean, French (4), W.
