April 16 (A. The Cincinnati Reds today filed a protest against the Chicago Cubs' 8 to 2 victory yesterday. Cincinnati had two men on bases In the fifth inning when Douthlt hit a fly which Stephenson apparently caught Then fell over. Ogden, who was on first raced to second, thinking the ball was not caught and was nipped on a doutile play. Umpire Donnelly first signaled Douthit out.

After the Reds protested, he appealed to Qulgley and finally Douthit was ruled safe at first and Og-gen out bowlIrsled by greenhill Rolls Only 600 Score in City Tourney Tom Greenhill, was the first to beat 600 In the singles of the City Bowling Tournament at Chene-Trombly. He did It Saturday afternoon, bowling 607 with counts of 201, 176 and 230. Saturday's singles and doubles squads, the first of the tournament in these events, were made up for the most part of lesrer lights in Detroit's bowling circles. Green-hill was the only one to reach the 600-class in the singles, while a 1,118 by H. Kleber and H.

Auger was top In the doubles. Greenhill, who did only 490 while rolling with his father in the doubles, could have gone even higher in the singles had he been just a little more successful in shooting at spares. In his middle game of 178 he had three open frames, two due to misses and the other to a split He had a second split in thU game but cut it down. His good finishing game of 230 came despite another miss. H.

Kleber was the closest to Greenhill, bowling 593. A drop to 157 in the second game hurt. It was sandwiched between scores of 221 and 215. Kleber and Auger In leading the bowling for the first day In the doubles beat out H. Joneg and O.

Goeschel by two pins. The latter pair totaled 402 in the final game when Goeschel rolled 230.

BOROTRA VISIONS TENNIS VICTORY Basque Claims France Will Keep Cup PARIS. April Jean Borotra has a change of heart and today he predicted France will retain the Davis Cup for another year.

During his recent visit to the United States, the Basque tennis siar forecast that America would recover the cup this year. After viewing some of the hAal A a I a has to offer, how- ever, he predicts that France will win again by three matches to two. Borotra Ueves the French team should be drawn from Henri Rene La Coste, Jacques Brug-non. Marcel Bernard. Christian BOROTRA Boussus and "Coco" Gentien.

"If La Coste cannot play," he said, "the task of defending the cup will be a little more difficult. "Nevertheless, I am certain that with Cochet playing two singles and also teaming in the doubles with Brugnon, our team would be assured of three points." Borotra still is trying to persuade La Coste, who formerly was the world's greatest star, to return to active tennis. If La Coste remains firm, Borotra would like to see one of the younger French players as signed the singles burden along with Cochet. "The Bounding Basque from persists in his determination not to play for France this year. He refuses to admit that he's too old and bases his refusal upon busi ness pressure.

Borotra is an engineer. He designs and produces automotive gasoline pumps and is his own best salesman. Even while devoting much of his time to tennis he has managed to earn $50,000 to 100,000 a year.

Stanford won its ninth successive annual track victory over California today, the final score being far over- ll a rl A -S A Kli m.rj brilliant sprint performances by jj Bob Kiesel and feat by lanky Ben Eastman. The score was 79 to 51 5-8 and the losing i Bears upset the dope to score more points than at any time since 1923, the last year of a California victory.

The 100-yard and 220 -yard KIESEL victories of Kiesel, sophomore, gave followers of California thrills aplenty. Eastman's ability to win the quarter mile and half mile runs and clinch a Stanford victory In the mile relay climaxed a perfect day for those who root for the Cardinal and White. Kiesel, who a week ago flashed meteor-like over the cinders to equal the accepted world's fastest time of 9.5 seconds in the hundred, proved-that such time was not extraordinary for him by winning this event today in 9.6. He won going away with three yards to spare. In the 220, he duplicated his efforts of the shorter dash bv head- Infr a nAlrl hv ia 1 a jailil, in tho time of 21.1.

MICHIGAN HORSES IN CHICAGO SHOW Green, Moss, Palmer Enter Hacks CHICAGO, April 16 The championship record of Michigan In winning blue ribbons at the premier horse shows of the United Staffs has an excellent chance of being defended successfully again at the midwestern spring classic, the Twenty-third Annual Horse Show on the ground of the South Shore Country Club here, June 7-11. C.

Ellis, chairman of the show committee, announced the opening of entries from 16 leading horse-breeding states of the Union and two provinces of Canada. Advices from the principal Michigan exhibitors at previous shows, and some new farms and stables that have not previously sent entries, indicate new records for class and number of horses will be made this June at the South Shore Show, and the competition for "blues" will be the keenest in the history of the show," Ellis said. "Michigan has an excellent chance for first honors, with practically all her re-rent prize winners as contenders, tiiRothor with some new horses that have been prepared for national competition this year. "Chicago and New York are going to get a 'lesson from horse lovers in how to deal with the so-railed "depression" If the list of prospective entries at the South fihoie Show Is any criterion. Horse lovers have re-eBtablished the blooded horse so securely In public affection that they are "carrying on" more successfully than almost any ether class of sportsmen at the present time.

Women owners are increasing In numbers, and some leading competitors among the horses entered will be sponsored by women." Nationally-known horsemen are anion; the Judges for the show, ln-rludlng Henry Caywood, Paris, Kufus C. Finch, Rumson, N. Louis Halght, Daricn, Samuel L. Havnes, Columbus, Holland B. Judklns and Ned King, of New York City; John W.

X.ROBIN WITH GIANTS V-'Wr John McGraw of the Tork Giant long has had a ation for always preferring to thi, fxGants as his aides, but Ivin he has first base coach, rW, who Rttained fame as Brooklyn Dodger, If K. Jimmy Brltt was coming along. I knew Britt but never boxed him.

Someone else knocked the Idea of becoming a fighter out of my head before I could meet Jimmy. "I turned amateur after that. Joined the Olympic Club, of San Francisco, as a swimmer and was a member of the team for two years. Then I became a masseur at a Frisco bathhouse. From there I jumped to the San Francisco ball club as trainer.

After pounding, pullini: and twisting muscles on the coast for 23 years, I came to Detroit." Acting as trainer for a big league ball club is not the sinecure many parsons suspect it to be. This is especially so when the trainer takes his job as seriously as does Carroll. Denny "works hours" as he says. He reports at 10:30 o'clock in the morning with the first squad of players and keeps working quite steadily until 6 In the evening. Should any of his charges become afflicted with a sore arm or leg that fails to yield to treatment.

Carroll worries about It more than the victim. "It is my job to keep these fellows playing ball." he says simply. Carroll is not a doctor and doesn't profess to be one.s But he haa been treating sore muscles for 23 years, usually under the direction of high class physicians, and has learned much about the things that cause a ball player's arm to go bad. He is ever on the alert for danger signals. In treating sore arms Carroll applies heat and twists the arm in ways that cause the patient to yell "Ow!" as only a ball player can yell.

Denny always listens for the "Ow!" He lectures the players continually about the danger of catching cold from wet undershirts after a vigorous workout, rubs them down when necessary, and looks after them generally. On the day on which he was quizzed by Whitehlll he began by giving Earl, scheduled to start against the Indians In the afternoon, a brisk rubdown. Then Roy Johnson came In and reported he was bothered by a sore left arm. He Injured the arm two years ago while sliding, and recently it had bothered him when he raised bis arms above his head. Never Sees a Ball Game Denny felt around and discovered the sore spot.

He twisted the arm until it cracked audibly. Then he massaged it and discharged the patient. Chief Elon Hogsett was next He received a badly bruised leg when struck by a batted ball and came In to have it rubbed. Whitlow Wyatt was next on the rubbing table. He had been the starting pitcher the day before and had been ordered to take a brisk workout with the recruits in the morning and then come in to have his muscles loosened by a massage.

By the time Wyatt had departed It was noon. Carroll and his remaining patients departed to a nearby restaurant for lunch. At 1 o'clock the regulars appeared for pre-game practice. Those who did not play reported at various times before and during the game. After the game the others came In.

Not all of them needed attention, but enough reported to keep Carroll busy until 6 o'clock. As dusk fell Denny headed homeward. "What do you think of the Tigers?" he was asked as be left the park. "Who? Me? Huh! I never saw the Tigers plav. I never saw the Seals play In 23 years.

I'm always busy when the club is on the field." ran find out the starting pitchers. That gives them an edge. "It was to stop that very thing that Commissioner Landis first ordered all managers to keep their starting lineups secret until they actually handed them to the umpires. "Now as for talking to opposing players, I'm against that We had too much handshaking, too much of players from opposing teams standing around a batting cage before a game with arms around each other's necks. It doesn't look good from the stands.

"The kids can get their score cards siirned. but now they must wait until the game la over, that's SANDLOTBODY MAYUSEDRAFT Managers to Discuss Plan Tuesday Consideration of the draft plan for Triple A clubs and further discussion of the next petition to the Common Council on the question of seat sales for Sunday games are expected to enliven the Detroit Baseball Federation's meeting Tuesday night. The baseball men are to meet at the Department of Recreation offices, 504 Elmwood Ave. The proposal that Triple A clubs be allowed to draft men from the lower divisions was made at last week's meeting by John Malulio, manager of the Regal Finance Club. Not much support is expected for the motion.

Virtually all managers of lower division clubs feel such a plan would wreck teams gathered after a winter campaign. Players also have some objection Inasmuch as many of them wish to remain in the lower division to retain their amateur standings. They feel that what little financial benefit might be derived from Triple A competition would not repay them for the chance at a trip to the Federation elimination tournament. League officials are not believed to be planning any Invasions of the Council chambers this week. All differences between the Recreation Department and the Federation, each of which has a different plan for collection and retention of Sunday game money, must be ironed out first.

4 Further entries may be received Tuesday night, although Triple A Clubs have until April 2d to file papers. There are five clubs ready to compete in this class while three more are possibilities. Several managers have announced the signing of new players. Pete Headlee, who played the outfield for Bill Duncan in the past three years, will go into the Firemen's line-up. Elwood Lee and Myles Grayblll are two others who have signed with the "Smoke Eaters." Duncan, now managing a new club, the Victors, recently signed Wes Scarlet, Clarence Kinney, Jim Callahan, Del Loefller and Tony Dugray, while Chuck Johnson and Clement, who played with West Point Park last season, are coming down Into Class A to play with Electrochefs, a new entry.
