fense of the National Collegiate Athletic association gymnastic championship last night in Bartlett gymnasium at the niversity of Chicago before a crowd of 1,200. Giallombardo. the only individual defending champion in the meet, retained his tumbling title and a share of his all-around title, the other half of which went to his teammate, Paul Fine, as the Mini scored a total of 20 points in keeping the team trophy. It was Giallombardo's last collegiate performance. The United Slates Naval academy team, chiefly thru a sweep of all four places in the rope climbing event, was second with 17 points.

Minnesota, which had beaten the Mini by half a point in the recent Big Ten conference meet, was third with Temple took fourth with 16, and the University of Chicago fifth with 714 points. Denison university, the only other entrant, failed to score. Illinois won three individual titles, Navy two, and Temple, Minnesota, and Chicago one each.

Columbus, April 13 M.George M. Trautman, president of the Amer. lean association today predicted it will experience in 1910 its tightest pen. nant race in years. The campaign for the thirty-ninth association flag gets under way Thursday with Minneapolis at Louisville, St.

Paul at Indianapolis, Kansas City at Toledo, and Milwaukee at Columbus. Trautman declared officials of the eight clubs were unanimous in rating the teams more evenly matched than they were in 1939 when the Kansas City Blues won the pennant and Louisville grabbed the laurels in the playoff and the little world series. Teams Lose Star Fitchers. Kansas City has surrendered Pitchers Marvin Breuer, Tommy Reis, Al Plechota, and Johnny Babich of 1939 staffand that quartet won 67 games for the Blues. Minneapolis which finished in second place.

appears strong. but the loss of hurlers Herb Hash and Wilburn But land. who won 41 contests for the Millers, wia be felt. Indianapolis and Louisville, hich rounded out the first division. have strengthened considerably.

but the greatest gain in talent has been made by last year's second division squads. The Toledo Mud Hens, last placers In 1939, have received valuable assistance from the St. Louis Browns. Columbus, which finished seventh. has been promised a first division club by.

the St. Louis Cardinals. St. Pat, which slumped to fifth after winning the 1038 flag, is powerful again, while Milwaukee's added strength trouble for all opponents. A Sellout in Louisville.

"Four clubs are going to finish the second division, that's Trautman said, "but it would take the seventh son of a seventh son to forecast at this time just which four will be down there." Louisville's box and reserved seats have been sold out for weeks, while Columbus and Toledo will compete for a permanent opening day attendance cup, indicating that fans wit flock to the parks in the eastern halt of the circuit for the curtain raisers.

When the umpires called the game on account of darkness, the box score showed that it was almost a perfect tie. Each team had 40 official times at bat, 9 hits, 33 putouts, 17 assists, and 1 error. The Browns' hits, however, were all singles, while the Cardinals' included two doubles and Enos Slaughter's triple on a misjudged fly ball. Bofh teams got pitching in mid-season form. Eldon Auker and Bob Harris each worked three innings for the t1rowns, with Jack Kramer finishing the game.

For the Cardinals, Bill McGee, Clyde Shoun, and Jack Russell divided the chores. Score: Philadelphia, April 13 UP). Four youths from Philadelphia, three from Pittsburgh, and one from Seattle, won National A. A. U.

Enthusiastic over the splendid showing made in 1939 by such first year men as Ted Williams, Charles Keller, Barney McCoskey, Joe Gallagher, Lou Boudreau, Jim Tabor, Marius Russo, and At ley Donald, American league club owners and managers are making a supreme effort this year to display an unusually large number of new players in the hope of uncovering other such outstanding stars. Lists Outstanding Rookies. American league rosters include the names of 50 players who were in the minors in 1939. Many of them will be bailed as major league stars within two or three years, while some are expected to distinguish themselves in 1940. Newcomers who will, no doubt, make rapid steps toward stardom on American league clubs, in addition to Boudreau, who joined Cleveland late in the 1939 season, include Shortstop Jim Pofahl and Pitcher Sid Hudson of Washington, Outfielder Walter Judnich and Catcher Bob Swift of St.

Louis, Catcher Tom Turner, Third Baseman Bob Kennedy, and Pitcher Val lie Eaves of Chicago; Outfielder Dom Di Maggio and Pitcher Maurice Harris of Boston, Pitcher Marvin Breuer of New York and Catcher Ed Parsons, Detroit. Night Games Break for Fans. With the scheduling of seven night games in each of four American league cities, giving many fans who could not attend day games an op. portunity to witness baseball under lights, and the possibility of stardom for so many new players, I believe the American league can look forward with much optimism to another banner year. BY FORD FRICK.

Errgal dent National League. New York, April 13 M.It seems foolish to go into a long dissertation on prospects for the coming season at a moment when the minds and hearts of the people of the United States are so deeply concerned by what Is going on In Europe. The importance and the far-reaching consequences of each day's front page headlines hold public attention so absorbingly that, for the time being, guesses about a pennant race seem, far-fetched, indeed. Baseball Draws a Contrast. We are thankful the baseball season opening means our young men and boys are mobilizing with bats and gloves and baseballs Instead of guns, gas masks and tanks.

They're swinging at fast ones and curves and chasing hard-hit drives across the open field Instead of peering over the brim of a trench. The only masks they need are for the catcher and umpire. Against the sombre setting of European war, the opening of the baseball season in this spring of 1940 is a par. ticularly cheerful reminder of our national solidarity. A Close Race Again.

The National league clubs are primed and conditioned for a busy and eventful season, with every prospect of another close pennant New men of exceptional ability have been proving their worth and making places for themselves In the lineups of the contending teams. But most important of all, the pennant race in all of the leaguesmajor and minorwill be providing for the people of our nation an outlet for emotions which in less fortunate lands takes other forms.

Hartnett and Todd will take care of the catching all right. Davis Not Likely to Duplicate. We have been reading about the Cardinals, and we have been looking over the 1939 pitching records of the Cards, which show nary a 15 game winner, 'except Curt Davis, who certainly isn't a bet to duplicate his 22 victories of last season. We aren't underestimating those two bitter intraclub rivals in the slugging art, Johnny Mize and Ducky Medwick, and we wish the Cubs owned Enos Slaughter and Don Padgett. But we can't see the Cardinals' pitching and infield past first base.

We have seen the.Cubs whip the Pirates twice this year. We have read a lot about the miracles Frankte Frisch has wrought with this long. lazy outfit. Maybe it isn't fair to judge the Pirates by those two games we saw them play, or by the waistlines of those on whom Frisch is said to be counting most. We have not seen the Dodgers, but those who have followed them seem to have receded from early pennant forecasts.

Durochers pepper may be put to a strain to carry the Dodgers as well this year as it did last. Brooklyn is a great baseball town and we are pulling for it to be right up there, but were atraid we can't help it much with our wishes. Second Division for Giants.
