for Sorrell. Roy Johnson, who had got two doubles in his two previous turns at bat, popped to Blue after White doubled, but Bill Rogell sent Jo-Jo home with a single to right Bill tried to stretch the hit to a double and was thrown out, ending the rally: but th. Tigers had enough runs to win. Before the ninth the pitching was something to behold. Jones held the Tigers to four hits In the first eight inning and turned them back scoreless.

They did not get a man as far as third base until th. sixth when Johnson got there after doubling, but was stranded. Sorrell pitched even better ball for the first seven innings. He held the Sox to three hits, but was touched for three more before he retired for a pinchhitter in the Tigers' half of the ninth. Tommy Bridges finished.

He got through without being scored upon after Appling had opened the Chicago ninth with a double. Bridges walked Hodapp after Berry grounded out, but Seeds and Selpti were easy victims. To Bob FotherglH went the credit for scoring the first Chicago run. MEET IN DASH Sprint May Feature Titan-YpsiMeet TPSILANTI. May 2 Although the meet as a whole will be just another track meet, the dual affair between Michigan Normal and University of Detroit on Alumni Field Saturday will see a great race between Bill O'Nell and Fred Schatte.

O'Neil, considered one of the fastest sprinters In this section of the country, will find a Job on his hands when he takes his mark against Schatte, Normal's sophomore dashman. The Titan defeated the Huron youngster by a considerable margin at the Indoor A. A. U. meet In Ann Arbor this winter.

But outdoors, Schatte Is somewhat faster. The race looms as th. highlight of the program. Yeager of the Titans will find other fast competitors In the middle distances, and these runs likewise should prove thrillers for the Huron and Titan track followers. Coach Dad Butler is bringing a squad of 20 men to Ypsilantl while Coach Olds will enter a slightly larger number In the meet.

Heading the Huron entries will be Gene Beattv. Red Simmons, Capt. Rha Arnold and Merrill Hershey all of Detroit high schools. Beatty, recent winner of the Penn Relay 400-meter hurdles In record time, is given better than an even chance of winning the low sticks from the Detroit hurdlers, Simmons, who took third at the Penn meet, undoubtedly will be in there for a close second unless some Titan of unknown ability sDrings a surprise. Capt.

The marriage not only has been a happy one but it also was lucky, says Heinle. Just one month after It took place Schuble was ordered to report to the St. Louis Cardinals. He has been moving in and out of the majors ever since and has been doing quite well financially, thank you. Schubls's marriage took place at Danville, June 5, 1927.

Heinle had just com. up to the Three Eye League that year from Houston in the Texas League. He and Miss Agnes Shaw, a sweetheart of his school days, had been correspond ing ever since Heinie had left his native Houston, and when hints were dropped that Heinie was due for a big league tryout, they de emed to get married. Heinle asserts the idea of the ball park marriage ceremony was all his own. They Wont Forget It "I wanted all the gang to be present at the ceremony," he said, "For a time I thought of being married before or after the game.

Later the Idea of being married a home plate occurred to me and adopted it. I knew all Danville would remember when Heinie Schuble got married If I were married with auch a ceremony." Schuble communicated his plan to President Buchwalter, of the Danville club. He arranged to have his brother, a judge, perform the ceremony. After it was over Mrs. Schuble took her place in i box seat and Heinie took his position at shortstop.

"I guess we all were pretty much excited that day," said Heinle. "We were playing Bloomlngton and we lost, i to in li innings, didn't get a hit," Although Detroit fans have been down on him for loose play In the field on a previous tryout with the Tigers, Heinie is one of the most popular members of the Tiger squad. Among the ball players he is regarded as a merry little fellow who may come up with a laugh at any time. Schuble was born at Houston, Nov. 1.

1907. He broke into organized baseball with Houston, Aug. 22. 1926. He played short stop for the Buffs for the re mainder of that season.

Once with Cardinals In 1927 he was sent to Danville, where he remained until July 7, when he joined the Cardinals, Schuble remained with the Cards all season, but in 1928 went back to Houston, where he played short stop during the Texas League sea son and also during the Dixie series in which Houston defeated Bir mingham for the championship. Schuble first came to the Tigers In 1929 He remained all that sea son, but In 1930 was sent to Beau mont. He played there in 1931 and was recalled by the Tigers at the end of the season. Schuble first joined the Tigers as a shortstop. At Beaumont he was converted Into a third baseman, and it was as a guardian of the hot corner that he came to the Tigers this year.

Heinie has been unable to beat Bill Rhlel or Nolen Richardson out of the regular job but has been retained as a utility man. Heini. Is exceedingly fast on the basepaths. Most of his ap pearances in the Tiger lineup this season have been as a base runner for David Dale Alexander, the celebrated pinch batter.

The wagering element which played In th. future books was hard hit with the withdrawal of this pair of turf luminaries, espe- a lv Ton Flight, wnicn ruieo iu- ture book favorite from the time the nominations wer. announced until the Ally was soundly beaten at Jamaica Saturday.

Top Flight's withdrawal was the direct result of the poor showing of the 1931 Juvenile champion in the Wood Memorial at Jamaica Saturday, vtn by Universe, a colt that was conceded an outside chance against the Ally that last vear set a record for juvenile earn Ings and a new high all-time mark for her aex. When Trainer Tom Healey an nounced that Top Flight would not start Saturday, virtually the last chance of a repetition of the 1915 Derby was erased. It was in tnai year that Regret, carrying the same Whitney silks that Top Flight has sported, got down in front, the only filly that ever won the classic of the American turf. With Top Flight and Burning Blaze definitely out of the race, the betting commissioners hav. made Tick On, the coH than ran Top Flight to a nose In th.

Belmont Futurity last year, the favorite, this despite th. fact that Tick On was beaten bv springsieei a ween ago. And Tick On probably will go to the post the favorite, but he will not be a prohibitive choice. There Is goini. to be a lot of money going ninnir ith Universe.

Wood has the Wimbledon title to defend, which he won by default from Frank Shields last year.

Shields tripped on a tennis ball, left on the court during a rally, and couldn't play the final round match. Our Davis Cup team will be better this year than at any time since Tilden and Johnston stopped teaming together, so with Wood and Mangin augmenting the forces, the United States has an odds -on chance of winning at Wimbledon, and reaping any other laurels that may be ready for harvesting. Those wags who said that all that was needed to take the lines of worry off the brows of the Win- ter Olympics officials was a little weather fit for a baseball opening in Boston wer. just about right. April playing dates in Boston still are evidence of man's naive trust In the elements.

CHCCK KLEIN Despite the fact that Chuck Klein, the Babe Ruth of Philadel phia, wasn't concerned In that three-sided blanket finish for the National League batting championship last season, he established himself as the most valuable play er in tne loop. He tied Billy Terry, of the Giants, his chief rival, In scoring runs, with 121 each. He had the biggest number of total bases, 347 to Terry's 323. He hit the most home runs, 31, and batted in the most runs, 121, leading Ott and Terry. Charles Herbert Klein, born In Indianapolis, In 1905, is one of the newcomers In the game.

His first full season in big league baseball was in 1929, when he played In 149 games for the Phillies and compiled an average of .356. The following year he soared to .386, and last year, with the less lively ball, he was fourth In the standing with .337. Klein started with Evansvill. of th. Three-Eye League, but made his first mark with Fort Wayne of the.

Central Loop, hitting .331. Philadelphia got him for a reported price of $7,500. whicn makes one wonder what Chalmers Cissell was supposed to do to justify the expenditure of $135,000 for his services. But you can't pick up another Klein for even Cissell's fantastic price. While Philadelphia's American League champion, Al Simmons, bats right-handed, Klein and Terry, the National League sluggers, stand on the south side of the plate and get their extra steps on the way to first i (Copyrlrht.
