after. this By NORMAN E. BROWW. Connie Mack's Athletics, picked once more by many critics to win the American League pennant, have started out the season with a mad rush to the sub-cellar. But the calmest person In baseball today, perhaps, Is Connie Mack.

A frown may cross his brow at times in an unguarded moment. But that Is the only outward indication of He doesn't believe In becoming excited. He's baseball's Pollyanna. And I believe a fatalist In a way. He labors in the sublime faith that it is written in the stars that the pennant shall come to Philadelphia, And that diligent effort and a cool head will bring it.

This despite the fact that It has been thirteen years in the coming and isn't here yet; This is Connie Mack's forty-third season in baseball. These two score and three years have failed to sour him on the game or life in general. MCLAUGHLIN BOWLERS LEAD AT SOUTH BEND STATE MEET Veas rte tus seed GQASP OaIw' TO it slip at te closeof rue seASo4j a championship ball club and start the weary task of rebuilding it. WAS FIFTY-TWO THEN Connie started this rebuilding at the age 4f 82, when most business men have hopes of retiring. At 65 he is still at it.

For seven years his makeshift clubs wallowed at the bottom 'of the American League cellar without a word of complaint for Connie. 'For three years now he seen the pennant within his grasp only to have his' team "blow" and lose. Its grip." His team finished seventh in .1.922, sixth in the next year, fifth In 1924, second in 1925 and third last season. Those records would Indicate that he has been building, despite reverses. Some say that Connie will retire, at the end of the year, regardless of the outcome of the race.

They said that four years ago. Some day they'll have the right dope. When they do, baseball will lose a great man. LEON DURAY ENTERS 500 MILE AUTO RACE INDIANAPOLIS, April SS.

iW HIS" SEASOaJ OF BASE 5 ALL I i SCORED SIX TIMES He has won six pennants and three world's champions. Because of his mildness, his reticent way, he has failed to. draw the laudatory tributes of "Little "Peerless Leader," "Old Fox? and suoh titles as have" been accorded John Mc-Graw, Frank Chance, Clark-Griffith, and other outstanding figures of the baseball world. This despite the fact of his record achievements. This despite the fact that with his old fWhite Elephants" he gave the American League Its greatest team -and one of the' outstanding aggregations in the game's history.

This despite the fact that he presented the baseball world with many of Its greatest stars Eddie Plank, Chief Bender, Eddie Collins, of the newer generation for Instance. This. dispiU the fact that no hint of scandal has ever 'touched his ball club. This despite the fact that he had the courage to break up over night and seven-eighths medley relay. White, of Thornton, won the half-mile run, and Green wald, of Proviso, captured the running broad Jump.

Morton, of Cicero, showed strong in the relays, copping first in the second 'mile seven-eighths medley and the second half-mile relay.

One world's record was tied, four marks for the event shattered and one established in the fifth annual relay games of the University of Kansas held this afternoon In Memorial stadium in the presence of 7,500 fol lowers of intercollegiate athletics.

And just after the games opened, Jose Torres, 24 year old Tarahumara Indian, trotted into the stadium to finish his 61 mile run from Kansas City with a world's record perform ance to his credit of 6 hours, 45 min utes and 41 seconds." The old record for the 81 miles was held by J. C. Davles of New Tork, who -covered the distance in hours. 49 minutes and 39 seconds. In addition to these starling per- performances the world's half mile relay record was shattered by but Referee Harry Gill of Illinois refused to allow the mark because the first runner, started without his baton and Grafy, the anchor man on the Jayhawker quartet ran out of his lane.

The Kansas Quartet stepped the distance in 1:25 6-19. one tenth of a second faster than the world's re cord established by the University of Nabraska team last year. Nerre Dame Ties World Mark After Kansas had been ruled out of the race and first place given to Iowa, the lion's share of the record breaking performances went to Notre Dame's quarter mile team, which tied the world's record of :41 6-10. This mark was established by the Newark A. C.

team, composed of Harwood, Cummlngs, Clark, and Bowman last year. The new mark shattered the relay record of Kansas at which is also the intercol legiate record. SMILES NOW Emll Fuchs, president and owner of the Boston' Braves, smiles these days as he watches his team in-ac tion. Most critics picked the Bos ton Nationals to wind up near the bottom this year. They may, but right now they are producing some of the best ball in the circuit Wherefore the Judge smiles.

HE'S PUZZLED Tom Shibe, president of the Phil adelphia Athletics, was feeMng pretty keen back in early April when most of the boys were picking his team to romp under the wire this season. But up to now the team has been going in the wrong direction to -overtake any flags. He hasn't lost faith in his crew, how ever. Neither has Connie Mack. COME ON.

REDSt Garry Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati Reds, has had visions of his team copping the pennant every spring since the big year in 1919, when they really copped. But each year the team has fallen shy. Last year it was by a couple of games only. And to date the team- hasn't got going, due to Crits's late arrival and uncertain pitching. HAW, HAW, KAWt Col.

Jacob Ruppert offers anyone else the opportunity to have the best laugh by laughing last. He is taking his guffaws now as the Tankees, picked to land any place but first this season, proceed to hang up a commanding lead. That's the way they worked it last year. Took a lead and held It. Whether they can repeat is another matter.

The metropolitan racing season of 1927 opened at the Jamaica race track today with Indications that this will be one of the best years for racing the New York public has seen In many years.

The big racing establishments of II. P. Whitney. Mrs. H.

P. Whitney. Rancocas stable, William Zlegler, J. S. Cosden, J.

Livingston, G. M. Odom, W. J. Salmon, the large entourage of millionaires' horses being trained under the direction of Max Hirsch and nearly every other race horse owner of note have reserved stable room.

The Paumonok handfeap, feature of the opening day, attracted a large and evenly matched field. Silver known as "The Gray Ghost," that splendid giant owned by the Rancocas stable and the winner of the Paumonok last year, has been picked by many expert horsemen to repeat and may be the favorite. H. P. Whitney's Croyden probably will have as great a following as Silver Fox, however.

Sarmatlcus, Coplapo, the South American champion; Navigator, and Vesparlan will have many Meet Some Moguls WEAVER GOES OVER Stands at Turner Field are Packed Despite Wintry Breezes Close to 2.000 fans, the biggest crowd that ever witnessed an opening day game in Hammond, packed the stands, at Turner Field to capacity, yesterday afternoon, to see "Buck" Weaver make his debut in a local uniform. Despite the chilly breexes very-thing went off aa scheduled. Mayor TInkham pitching the first ball with Murray Turner acting aa umpire, while James Malo and Ed Langohr, members of the park board, took the rolea of catcher and batter, respectively. And to make the scene complete. Mayor Jaranowskl of Calumet City, filled in very capably at first base.

Lest we forget to mention, Just before the mayor and his able assist ants did their stufT, Boscoe Hem stock, popular local real estate man, representing the fans of Hammond, presented Buck Weaver with a beautiful large basket of flowers, a gift from several of Weaver's local admirers. This floral offering was made possible through the efforts of George Noonan, dyed-in-the-wool fan. who conducts a cigar store in the First Trust and Savings Bank building. One day last week Noouan and Hemstock got their heads together and conceived the idea that it would be a nice tribute to Weaver to have few of the local fans make up a little purse to present Buck with a nice bouquet, of flowers. Just to let him know how sincerely welcome, he is in our midst.

Thanks to Hemstock. Noon an, also the fans who contributed their bit and the Douglas Floral shop, the stunt went. over big and Buck Weaver has requested the press to express his deep appreciation of the gift, for which he is sincerely grateful. And. such' a "wonderful day that Weaver had.

All that the former famous White Sox star third baseman did in his initial appearance with Nlesen's Hammond club was to bust out three hits, including a double, out of his first three times at bat, to say nothing of the sensational game that he put up in the field, handling five chances without the slightest semblance of an error. In fact everything happened in Ruck's favor to such an extent that It appeared-as if it were all prearranged like a story or a drama on the state. Take the start of the game, for Instance. Up comes Mickey. Nolan, the first man at bat for the Belle Plalnes.

Nolan hits a wicked grounder down third base way and Buck, after coming tip clean with the ball throws bis man out with a perfect peg to first, thereby making not only the first assist, but also the first play of the game. Just a moment or two later, with a man on first as a result of a base hit after two out. Buck fields another nasty roller off the next batter, then wheels around and makes a swell throw, to second for' what should have been a forceout, retiring the side, but unfortunately the second baseman dropped the ball, But Hammond got by In this round without being scored on, despite this error, and then the locals can: in for their 2rt tins at bat. George Potts, first up, walked, and after McGulre struck, out. Weaver pranced up to the plate for his first time at bat.

After receiving a wonderful ovation from the fans. Buck responded nobly by crashing the first pitched ball for a hard line drive to deep left center, the blow being good for two bases, sending Foots to third, from where he scored wnen Purcell beat out an infield hit to tie first baseman. Hammond scored as air. in tie sec nd a tie left fielder's two-base rauS of Curion's fly, followed by an infield out and a long sacrifice fly off tie Lat of Stewart, the new young pitching phenom. Just recently uncovered by Nlesen.

In the third Inning, Hammond chalked up another marker, thanks to the rally started by Weaver, who Insisted on keeping himself in the limelight. There was one out when Buck singled cleanly over second base. With Weaver on first and demons at bat. Buck immediately flashed the hit and ran sign to the former St. Louis Cardinal catcher, and much to the delight of the fans, the play went through beautifully.

This will give the local pair a nice slice of the prize money. the boys started out the same dlzsy pace in their singles. Jack Whelan ground out 633 pins, and evidently took the lead in the all events with his total of 1854. for the nine games.

Harris followed closely with, a pretty total, of 619. As the dope now stands the Mc Laughlin bowlers stand to take down about $325 of the prize money at South Bend, and coupled with the fact that the Lletzan Five also of Hammond, is leading the five event, Hammond just about has a corner on every thing at the State tournament, which is about the best' showing that a representative sport aggregation has done to boost the name of Hammond since the fays when Jimmy Clabby was in his prime. GOPHERS AND WABASH PLAY 2-2 TIE IN OPENER CRAWFORDSVILLE, April 25. Wabash and the University of Minnesota battled to a 2 to 2 tie in the opening game 'of the season for the Scarlet here Saturday afternoon, the game being called at tie end of tie eighth inning on account-J cold. THE SATRAP IS OUT BALTIMORE, April 25 After a consultation with W.

Du-Pont, owner of the $100,000 three-year-old, The Satrap, Max Hirsi announced that the son of Tie Tetraci had. bees thrown out of training. This means that the cole probably will be sent to the DuPont farm in Delaware nd next fall shipped to Kentucky to go into the stud. The colt had been troubled with a bad ankle and has been pulling up a bit sore In his (trials. For Youth demons' came' through with a single past third bace.

Buck rounded second and kept on going, beating the left fielder's throw to the far corner by some fast footwork. Purcell followed demons with, a long sacrifice fly to deep center field. letting Buck romp In from third with what later proved to be the winning- run. In the fourth stansa. Buck did his stuff again, this time starting it off with a line single to'left field after one out.

demons and Weaver tried. to put on the hit and run again but Olson, the visiting catcher outguessed them, calling for a pltchout as Weaver started to second. But demons, going through with his part of the play, reached out and pumped a roller to the short stop, while Buck advanced to the middle bag. Buck did not have to loiter long at second base, however, as Purcell, who looks every inch a good ball player, as well as a sweet hitter, came through with a hard line single to right field, letting Buck score standing up on the hit. Buck called it a day after this, letting Harry Curson and George Potts, both local boys, share some of the honors with a couple of healthy home run wallops, both of which-happened In the sixth inning.

Curson, first up, picked one out to. his liking and pasted the ball right smack on the nose far ever- the left fielder's head. The ball' rolled down the river bank in deep left and Curson completed the circuit with There were two out when' Potts got his four base wallop and while he did not lean on the agate quite; so hard as Curson. his speed enabled him to circle the bases before the left fielder could relay tie ball to tia plate. Larry Doolis, another local lad, who finished, the game in right field, scored Hammond's seventh run in the seventh inning.

Larry walked, with one out, was advanced to sec ond when Purcell was punctured with a wild pitch, and scored all the way from second when the shortstop made a wild throw trying to complete a double play on Rye's roller-to the second baseman. Sudy Nlesen tallied Hammond's last rua a a. sing'. over third base followed by a scratch hit by Potts, a base on balls to McGulre and a forceout at second base. The Belle Plalnes scored their first run in the third inning as a result of a base on balls, followed by a hit batsman and a clean single to left field.

In the eighth, the visitors scored their second run on another base on balls, followed by a wild pitch and an error by the shortstop. Aside from Buck Weaver, who was easily the outstanding star of the game, a good share of the opening day honors go to Frank Stewart, the kid pitcher, who last year gained quite a reputation with a fast semi-pro club at Stillwater, Minn. BUI" Nlesen, after seeing this lad work out last Sunday, lost no time signing him to a Hammond contract, and according to "Tubby" demons, old St. Louis Cardinal catcher, Nlesen is certainly to be congratulated for having landed a real diamond in the rough. demons goes further to state that unless he misses his guess this lad, "Removal of appendix of Brooklyn Dodger pitcher the other day puts that operationjn Petty vsxv xx "-xxx: ct The McLaughlin Mill Supplies bowlers of Hammond' fared well at the Indiana State tournament at South Bend ever Saturday and Sunday.

As a result they now lead In the doubles and all events with the scores of 1254 in the doubles' and 1854 in the all events. After showing rather, poorly in the five men event on Saturday evening, due to a terribly mixed up schedule and poorly managed gang of pin boys, the boys left the bowling alleys at 2:00 o'clock Sunday morning for the hotel determined to come back the next morning, and let the world know that they were from They received a better break the next morning as the management had ironed out the schedule difficulty and things were running smoothly. Frank Novak and Jack Whelan Started out at a dlzxy pace and soon had the large crowd all packed around their alleys. These two local bowlers cracked out strike after' strike until they had landed far out in front of their closest opponents. Their scores were as follows: F.

The veteran pin star shot very good pins but the combination of H. Moll wound up with a good money count when they totaled 1169. This put by taking proper care of himself, promises to develop into one of the real stars of the game.

The Belle Plalnes have a good looking ball club, rated as a bunch of wicked douters and holding tils gang to three measly blows, to say nothing of striking out seven men in six innings, is Quite some task that would be considered a rood day's work by any pitcher in the semi-pro ranks today.
