In the first tvo matches in their series of three, the Americans have absorbed two drubbings at the hands of the visitors, although the United States team showed distinct Improvement in the second outing. The Russians won seven of eight matches in the opener at Norman and pretty badly outclassed the home team.

At Stillwater the score was 5-1 with two draws and in almost every case the Americans made better showing. The series winds up Tuesday night at Tulsa and the trend is likely to continue improvement on the part of the U. S. entries but' not enough to make much difference in the score. Terry McCann, the str my little 125-pound Tulsa, ace, has been the one bright light for the U.

S. team, scoring two faljs over Vladimir Arsenyan for the only American victories. Dick Delgado, 11414-pounder from OU, and Bill Kerslake, 312-pound Ohioan who just joined the troupe Saturday, gained draws in the second program. In any case, a step toward better international relations has been taken in this first sporting competition between the two nations held in America. In a nutshell, the Russians are far better wrestlers on the mat and smart enough to stay out of trouble on their feet.

They are particularly adept at using the leg scissors or body scissors to turn the Americans over for points. The Russians have scored only three falls, against the two by McCajin, indicating that the contestants are pretty' well matched in individual ability. The Americans' weakness is in their lack of knowledge of international style. Wrestlers in other countries grow up in this style, while United Stales youths stick with this country's radically different rules al. the way through college.

McGraw's feuds were legend CAN FRANCISCO, April 13 Mt--The passing of one baseball tradition begets- another Tuesday when the San Francisco Giants open their first west coast National league season in Seals stadium. The Giants, starting season No. 76, built a gaudy past with such names as John McGraw, Christy Mathewson, Rube Mar-quard, Carl 1 1, Bill Terry, Mel Ott and scores of others.

The Seals, who bowed out September 15 after 55 years in San Francisco, consistently were one of the top producers of major league talent. The DiMaggio brothers, Joe, Vince and Dominic, all got their start in Seals stadium.

The decision is given at the end of the match by three judges.

The current series, big a spectacle as it is to the wrestling world, hardly can be considered a howling success, but it has pointed up a glaring lack of preparation which must be corrected by the nation's two major sports groups, the NCAA and AAU, if the United States is to gain the stature in international wrestling it enjoys irr" other sports.

The feeling was mutual, says Mails. He recalls it was a $300 fine to speak to a Giant either on or off the playing field. Charles Ebbetts, the Dodger owner, disliked McGraw so much, says Mails, he would not go to the Polo Grounds, the Giant field, when the Dodgers played there.

When Mails pitched for tlie Dodgers, manager Wilbur Robinson had a thumbs up sign. It meant throw a bean ball. "It cost us $50 when we played the Giants and failed to obey that sign," Mails says. Though it may not be as deep or as dangerous Mails predicts the tradition of Giant-Dodger feuding will continue in California. ce 1pC ertianxlnir, dressmaking rnlsceilaneous serv.
