Tech High Hopeful of Fair Baseball Season, Despite Greenness of Squad The Sportlight Long Layoff Takes Toll Of Golfer, Jones Finds By GRAXTLAXD RICE. Special Correspondent of The Star. AUGUSTA, Ga„ April 5 (N.A.N. A.).—Earlier this season Bobby Jones had planned a determined golf comeback. He turned in a 63 over his home course at Eastlake, tying his former record. He still holds the unofficial course record at Au- gusta—64. Then an attack of bur- sitis set in under his right shoul- der blade, forcing him out of action for over six weeks. Offering no ali- bis, this was a heavy setback. But he will be out there swinging, hop- ing to beat his top mark of 294, made in 1934. Few know the terrific internal beating he has taken in these last six years. I can only tell you it has been plenty. But no one can expect him—10 years after his best days—to match the par-blistering pace of this mod- ern field. "The main trouble you have, after a long layoff.” Bobby says, "is con- centrating through 18 holes. Your mind begins to wander—little things upset you—you are more easily dis- tracted. It takes only two or three bad shots, at the wrong spot, to wreck a score.” Gene Sarazen backs up this angle. "After you've been around 20 years,” he says, "the old concentra- tor ain't what it used to be. Not for any 72 holes.” Baseball Is Main Topic In Golf Locker Rooms Sitting around in the locker room in the mornings—waiting the call to the tee—the golfers talk of other things sometimes. Baseball, for in- stance. Most golfers know most of the ball players—and vice versa. Since most of the ball players like to play golf or watch the leading profes- sionals and amateurs play it. they get out to the courses as often as possible and in that way meet the golfers. This, naturalij. has spurred the interest of the golfers—already strong to begin with in many cases— in baseball. Right now. with the big league clubs in the South, the golfers are talking baseball more than usual, for many of them, just up from Florida, are fresh from spare time spent watching the ball players in action. They were talking, this morning about the pennant races that loom just ahead. They were unanimous in picking the Yankees to win the pennant and divided in their view's of the National League tussle, being mainly split between the Reds and the Cardinals, with here and there a vote for Brooklyn. In other words, they probably offered a good cross-section of what fans all over the country are think- ing. Maranville Among Greats Of Diamond Sport Almost completely buried in the baseball news a few days back was what amounts to notice of the pass- ing from the scene of organized baseball of one of the greatest play- ers the game ever has known—Rab- bit Maranville. It was a long lane the Rabbit traveled, taking in some 27 years as player and manager. Like Mc- Graw, Cobb. Ruth, Johnson, Dean and a few others. Maranville had a firm grip on the affections of the fans, not only in the city where he happened to be playing, but all over the country. There have been few who excelled him at shortstop or second base, even fewer who stood out so vividly against the background of the big parade. Settling down to business now. he can look back on an amazing career that included, among other feats, that of playing in two World Series 14 years apart—with the Boston Braves in 1914 and the St. Louis Cardinals in 1928. He was a great little player. He remains a great : little character. Bimelech's Hold Strong On Turf Enthusiasts The odds on Bimelech shorten in the Kentucky Derby winter book as doubt increases as to whether he Will start at Churchill Downs. This unusual twist emphasizes the hold that the Bradley colt has on the imagination of the horse play- ers They still string with the son of Black Toney, risking their money not only' on his chance to win the race but on his chance of getting to the post after a backward spring in Kentucky, where the conditions have been anything but favorable for the training of thoroughbreds. They are calling again on Brad- ley luck and hoping that the sun will shine on Bimelech. American U.

Terp Stickmen After Third Triumph in Week Tomorrow Loyola Ten to Invade; Team Not Impressive In Routing Harvard Maryland's lacrosse team will strive to make it three straight wins in one week when they meet Loyola of Baltimore at College Park to- morrow at 2:30. The baseball team will make it a simultaneous twin bill, meeting Pittsburgh at the same time. The Terp stickmen. who downed Dartmouth. 12 to 4. Monday, played listlessly in the first half yesterday in trimming Harvard. 10 to 1, but showed more skill and aggressiveness in the last part of the tilt. However, it still is plain that the Terps have not hit their usual stride. They show many rough spots that usually are not prevalent even at this stage of the season. Although Pete Zouck of Harvard got the first goal. Harvard was im- potent on attack. He got the only two other real shots the Crimson had as Jack Grier, who shared the goal duties with Mark Kelly, got the only two saves Maryland made. Jack Mueller, with four goals r.nd Jordan Sexton, with three, led the Maryland attack that functioned well at times in the second half after having difficulty in gaining a 3-1 edge in the first two quarters.

T General Enthusiasm Displayed by Boys Pleases Kessler Coach Has Big Outfield Problem, but Sees Good In Other Material Although he lost seven lettermen from last year’s rather unsuccessful baseball team. Coach Bruce Kessler of Tech High School sees a fairly bright future for the players who will make up this season s outfit. When first call for practice this week brought out more than 100 boys, although few had enjoyed pre- vious high school experience. Kessler was pleased with the general en- thusiasm revealed. Only two of the boys. Buddy Webb, leading pitcher, and Chester Ciomei, second base- man, had earned letters. Otherwise the boys were greener than a St. Patrick's Day emblem. Kessler is starting his third year as diamond mentor. Not since 1933 has Tech been able to .win the schoolboy title and the best that Kessler can hope for this season is a slight improvement over last year. Webb Hated Best rucner. On papier, last year's team looked good, but things Just didn’t turn out as expected. There were a number of good players around, but somehow they failed to click. Two catchers. Warren Fields and Don Tregnowan, were present, as were Charley Kendall, first baseman; Baba Wiles, shortstop, and Leroy Curtis, third sacker. Kendall was I the answer to any coach's prayer, and, according; to Kessler, he made out one error in two seasons. In the outfield, Lew Moston, cap- tain: Al Jones, Ralph Hoagland and Eli Blank showed ability, but helped little insofar as winning games was concerned. All are gone. The task of finding replacements will not be .easy, but Kessler already has a fair line on who they'll be. Probably the best Ditcher on the squad is Webb, who was too heavy I to do his best work last year. Since j a strenuous basket ball season,! Buddy has dropped 30 pwunds and ! now weighs a nifty 225. Charley Green, who has done little pitching, j is expected to move over from re- serve shortstop of last year to help Webb. Green has an improved fast ball. Full Catching Squad. Buddy Sanders is being groomed to help out until Carl Loeffler. a nice prospect, becomes eligible sometime during midseason. Four husky youths promise to fill in the vacant catching jobs and all show promise. Heading the group is Charley Wilson and Melvin San- j ford. Peter Paul, whc is the team's Handy Andy, will help the catchers when not playing infield or outfield. Vincent Geronimo. a first-year lad. is coming along creditably. Outside of pitching, the strongest department on the team is the in- field, especially in the middle. At first is Kent Jones and Otis New- some. The latter may help out at third. That position likely will be held down by Warren "Shrimp" Brewer, though, who saw consider- able service last year. Brewer is' long on speed, too. Martin "Reds" Green and Ciomei will handle the shortstop and second base jobs and both click like clock- 1 work. Each has shown himself cap- able of fielding and hitting with the best around and figures to be among the leaders in series play. Joe Ga- leano will be in reserve at second. Outfield Uncertain. Question marks on the team so far; are the outfielders. They all look to' be ball players, but Kessler is not yet predicting anything great for them. Pour are trying out, Kelly Lewis. Vic McCampbell. Joe Bryan and Vernon Holledge. Lewis and Holledge have given hitting promise while McCampbell's speed makes him valuable. Bryan is slow, but may make up for that with a good wing.

Grapplers Start AMES, Iowa, April 5 OP).—Nearly 100 amateur wrestlers, including some of the Nation’s outstanding mat performers, were on hand today for the opening of the national A. A. U. meet this afternoon. Tiger Stick Team One to Beat For Intercollegiate Title “Princeton is the team to beat for the national college lacrosse cham- pionship this year.” That was the opinion chorused by Dinty Moore, head coach of Navy, and Jack Faber, mentor at Mary- land, as they sat together in the Baltimore Stadium Wednesday night and watched the Tigers' smooth and aggresive combination give Balti- more A. C. a neat 6-to-3 lacing. A1 Heagy, defense coach at Mary- land, and Angie Lamond, Moore’s aide at Annapolis, also had the same thoughts. Even Coach Bill Logan, the for- mer Hopkins star, who has placed Princeton firmly on the lacrosse map, feels about the same way about it. Neither can Navy be underrated despite some pessimistic reports from Annapolis. The Middies, minus three of their midfield stars, who were ill, showed a rangy, speedy out- fit in handling Dartmouth about as they pleased Wednesday afternoon, 13 to 3. This was a better showing than the title-holding Maryland ten made against Dartmouth the previous Monday when the Terps were hard- pressed at times, though winning, 12 to 4. Navy has two great close defense men in Ed Gillette and the 216- pound A1 Bergner and displayed an array of promising talent on attack. In fact, the Midshipmen Wednes- day appeared potentially as strong as they were last Spring when they gave up the national title only through a 5-to-3 defeat by Mary- land. Princeton, though, is the team that has impressed most. And, as Faber said, “They certainly will de- serve the title if they win it. They haven’t dodged any of the leaders, having beaten B. A. C„ they still have Mount Washington, Rutgers, Army, Navy, Hopkins and Maryland Included on their list.’’ yM Exclusive r* at Eisemen’s A££4M04t MEN'S FINE SHOES With the new hand- •tained Allah.

STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF NEW JERSEY when not pitching, Dieckelman has been a full-blown bust at the plate thus far, poling only one hit in eight tries. Against Penn he rapped out a bingle and yesterday two Harvard chukkers shut him out as George- town splurged for five runs in the fifth to eke out a 6-4 decision. Sir Richard was handcuffed. Coach Judge Optimistic. But Judge isn’t at all worried about 'the lad’s inability to get going. “Two games isn’t enough to meas- ure any hitter,” he said. "Some of your greatest major leaguers got off to slow starts and went hitlffss for days, not two or three games, but days And they were looking at pitching every day. not twice a week like college boys. When Dieckelman does start banging the ball they’ll have to get an injunction to stop him. He has the eye and co-ordina- tion to be a good hitter and I know he’ll come through. "Anyway, you’ll see a pretty good left-hander when he pitches this afternoon. Maybe working in right field has slowed up his Ditching, but I don’t think so. If he's right you’ll see a No. 1 thrower and if he comes through on the hill he won't have to hit. He’s a pitcher pri- marily and you know what terrible batters they are.” Swarthy Lou Ghecas, George- town's third sacker, paced the hit- ting yesterday with three for four, including a double. He scored cne run and drove in another and han- dled three chance in the field with- out a bobble for a well-nigh perfect day. Errant Roller Start* Rally. The big fifth started with a break when Schmitt's easy roller to third took a bad hop and went for a* hit and the rally was helped along by Torby McDonald's error on Russ Miller's liner and a wild pitch by Burgess Ayers, who came in to re- lieve Charley Brackett. Ghecas’ j double, singles by Mylnarski and Koshlap and a pass to Castiglia fig- ured in the lively proceedings. Harvard got its first two runs in the first half of the same frame on singles by Tully and Pulton—with Pitcher Johnny Smith hitting Ed Buckley with a stray curve in be- tween and McDonald's whistling double to right center. Buckley's triple and singles by Charley Spryer and Bob Pulton, with Ayers’ infield out sandwiched in. accounted for the Crimson's final tallies. Harvard AB H. O A. G'town AB.H. O A.

Colonials' Poor Play Bears Out Mentor As Pessimist Battery Weakness Shows Up as Buff and Blue Bows to Dartmouth Ed Morris wasn't making sound tests when he predicted few vic- tories for his sophomoric George Washington nine if yesterday’s 8-2 loss to Dartmouth was a criterion. Off the form displayed the Colonials can improve with a bit of tighten- ing here and there and develop into a fairly good nine with 8 or 10 games under their belts. Morris intended to shuffle the line-up for tomorrow’s test with Vermont and hoped for better re- sults both in the field and at bat. Six hits were all the Colonials culled from the combined offerings of Bob McNeary and Wonson, two rattling off Roy McNeil’s war club. They used two to advantage in the second to score a run and added another marker in the eighth and final in- ning. A walk to Broberg. who went to third with the aid of a passed ball and a wild pitch which hit Orr, who went to second without interference, arranged the trappings for Dart- mouth’s initial score. Reeves’ single brought them home and he came in on Zimmer's double. Thereafter G. W. was never in the ball game. The Colonial pitchers are 'wav behind schedule and the catching is woefully weak.

Sportlight Long Layoff Takes Toll Of Golfer, Jones Finds

By GRAXTLAXD RICE. Special Correspondent of The Star.

AUGUSTA, Ga„ April 5 (N.A.N. A.).—Earlier this season Bobby Jones had planned a determined golf comeback. He turned in a 63 over

his home course at Eastlake, tying his former record. He still holds the unofficial course record at Au- gusta—64. Then an attack of bur- sitis set in under his right shoul- der blade, forcing him out of action for over six weeks. Offering no ali- bis, this was a heavy setback. But he will be out there swinging, hop- ing to beat his top mark of 294, made in 1934.

Few know the terrific internal beating he has taken in these last six years. I can only tell you it has been plenty.

But no one can expect him—10 years after his best days—to match the par-blistering pace of this mod- ern field.

"The main trouble you have, after a long layoff.” Bobby says, "is con-

centrating through 18 holes. Your mind begins to wander—little things upset you—you are more easily dis- tracted. It takes only two or three bad shots, at the wrong spot, to wreck a score.”

Gene Sarazen backs up this angle. "After you've been around 20

years,” he says, "the old concentra- tor ain't what it used to be. Not for any 72 holes.”

Baseball Is Main Topic In Golf Locker Rooms

Sitting around in the locker room

in the mornings—waiting the call to the tee—the golfers talk of other things sometimes. Baseball, for in- stance.

Most golfers know most of the ball players—and vice versa. Since most of the ball players like to play golf or watch the leading profes- sionals and amateurs play it. they get out to the courses as often as

possible and in that way meet the golfers. This, naturalij. has spurred the interest of the golfers—already strong to begin with in many cases— in baseball.

Right now. with the big league clubs in the South, the golfers are

talking baseball more than usual, for many of them, just up from Florida, are fresh from spare time spent watching the ball players in action.

They were talking, this morning about the pennant races that loom just ahead. They were unanimous in picking the Yankees to win the pennant and divided in their view's of the National League tussle, being mainly split between the Reds and the Cardinals, with here and there a vote for Brooklyn.

In other words, they probably offered a good cross-section of what fans all over the country are think- ing.

Maranville Among Greats Of Diamond Sport

Almost completely buried in the baseball news a few days back was what amounts to notice of the pass- ing from the scene of organized baseball of one of the greatest play- ers the game ever has known—Rab- bit Maranville.

It was a long lane the Rabbit traveled, taking in some 27 years as player and manager. Like Mc- Graw, Cobb. Ruth, Johnson, Dean and a few others. Maranville had a firm grip on the affections of the fans, not only in the city where he happened to be playing, but all over the country.

There have been few who excelled him at shortstop or second base, even fewer who stood out so vividly against the background of the big parade.

Settling down to business now. he can look back on an amazing career that included, among other feats, that of playing in two World Series 14 years apart—with the Boston Braves in 1914 and the St. Louis Cardinals in 1928. He was a great little player. He remains a great :

little character.

Bimelech's Hold Strong On Turf Enthusiasts

The odds on Bimelech shorten in the Kentucky Derby winter book as doubt increases as to whether he Will start at Churchill Downs.

This unusual twist emphasizes the hold that the Bradley colt has on the imagination of the horse play- ers They still string with the son of Black Toney, risking their money not only' on his chance to win the race but on his chance of getting to the post after a backward spring in Kentucky, where the conditions have been anything but favorable for the training of thoroughbreds.

They are calling again on Brad- ley luck and hoping that the sun will shine on Bimelech.

Terp Stickmen After Third Triumph in Week Tomorrow

Loyola Ten to Invade; Team Not Impressive In Routing Harvard

Maryland's lacrosse team will strive to make it three straight wins in one week when they meet Loyola of Baltimore at College Park to- morrow at 2:30.

The baseball team will make it a simultaneous twin bill, meeting Pittsburgh at the same time.

The Terp stickmen. who downed Dartmouth. 12 to 4. Monday, played listlessly in the first half yesterday in trimming Harvard. 10 to 1, but showed more skill and aggressiveness in the last part of the tilt. However, it still is plain that the Terps have not hit their usual stride. They show many rough spots that usually are not prevalent even at this stage of the season.

Although Pete Zouck of Harvard got the first goal. Harvard was im- potent on attack. He got the only two other real shots the Crimson had as Jack Grier, who shared the goal duties with Mark Kelly, got the only two saves Maryland made.

Jack Mueller, with four goals r.nd Jordan Sexton, with three, led the Maryland attack that functioned well at times in the second half after having difficulty in gaining a 3-1 edge in the first two quarters.

General Enthusiasm Displayed by Boys Pleases Kessler

Coach Has Big Outfield Problem, but Sees Good In Other Material

Although he lost seven lettermen from last year’s rather unsuccessful baseball team. Coach Bruce Kessler of Tech High School sees a fairly bright future for the players who will make up this season s outfit.

When first call for practice this week brought out more than 100 boys, although few had enjoyed pre- vious high school experience. Kessler was pleased with the general en-

thusiasm revealed. Only two of the boys. Buddy Webb, leading pitcher, and Chester Ciomei, second base- man, had earned letters. Otherwise the boys were greener than a St. Patrick's Day emblem.

Kessler is starting his third year as diamond mentor. Not since 1933 has Tech been able to .win the schoolboy title and the best that Kessler can hope for this season is a slight improvement over last year.

Webb Hated Best rucner.

On papier, last year's team looked good, but things Just didn’t turn out as expected. There were a

number of good players around, but somehow they failed to click. Two catchers. Warren Fields and Don Tregnowan, were present, as were

Charley Kendall, first baseman; Baba Wiles, shortstop, and Leroy Curtis, third sacker. Kendall was

I the answer to any coach's prayer, and, according; to Kessler, he made out one error in two seasons.

In the outfield, Lew Moston, cap- tain: Al Jones, Ralph Hoagland and Eli Blank showed ability, but helped little insofar as winning games was

concerned. All are gone. The task of finding replacements will not be

.easy, but Kessler already has a fair line on who they'll be.

Probably the best Ditcher on the squad is Webb, who was too heavy I to do his best work last year. Since j a strenuous basket ball season,! Buddy has dropped 30 pwunds and !

now weighs a nifty 225. Charley Green, who has done little pitching, j is expected to move over from re-

serve shortstop of last year to help Webb. Green has an improved fast ball.

Full Catching Squad. Buddy Sanders is being groomed

to help out until Carl Loeffler. a nice prospect, becomes eligible sometime during midseason.

Four husky youths promise to fill in the vacant catching jobs and all show promise. Heading the group is Charley Wilson and Melvin San- j ford. Peter Paul, whc is the team's Handy Andy, will help the catchers when not playing infield or outfield. Vincent Geronimo. a first-year lad. is coming along creditably.

Outside of pitching, the strongest department on the team is the in- field, especially in the middle. At first is Kent Jones and Otis New- some. The latter may help out at third. That position likely will be held down by Warren "Shrimp" Brewer, though, who saw consider- able service last year. Brewer is' long on speed, too.

Martin "Reds" Green and Ciomei will handle the shortstop and second base jobs and both click like clock-

1

work. Each has shown himself cap- able of fielding and hitting with the best around and figures to be among the leaders in series play. Joe Ga- leano will be in reserve at second.

Outfield Uncertain. Question marks on the team so far;

are the outfielders. They all look to' be ball players, but Kessler is not yet predicting anything great for them. Pour are trying out, Kelly Lewis. Vic McCampbell. Joe Bryan and Vernon Holledge. Lewis and Holledge have given hitting promise while McCampbell's speed makes him valuable. Bryan is slow, but may make up for that with a good wing.

Tiger Stick Team One to Beat For Intercollegiate Title

“Princeton is the team to beat for the national college lacrosse cham- pionship this year.”

That was the opinion chorused by Dinty Moore, head coach of Navy, and Jack Faber, mentor at Mary- land, as they sat together in the Baltimore Stadium Wednesday night and watched the Tigers' smooth and aggresive combination give Balti- more A. C. a neat 6-to-3 lacing.

A1 Heagy, defense coach at Mary- land, and Angie Lamond, Moore’s aide at Annapolis, also had the same thoughts.

Even Coach Bill Logan, the for- mer Hopkins star, who has placed Princeton firmly on the lacrosse map, feels about the same way about it.

Neither can Navy be underrated despite some pessimistic reports from Annapolis. The Middies, minus three of their midfield stars, who were ill, showed a rangy, speedy out- fit in handling Dartmouth about as

they pleased Wednesday afternoon, 13 to 3.

This was a better showing than the title-holding Maryland ten made against Dartmouth the previous Monday when the Terps were hard- pressed at times, though winning, 12 to 4.

Navy has two great close defense men in Ed Gillette and the 216- pound A1 Bergner and displayed an

array of promising talent on attack. In fact, the Midshipmen Wednes-

day appeared potentially as strong as they were last Spring when they gave up the national title only through a 5-to-3 defeat by Mary- land.

Princeton, though, is the team that has impressed most. And, as Faber said, “They certainly will de- serve the title if they win it. They haven’t dodged any of the leaders, having beaten B. A. C„ they still have Mount Washington, Rutgers, Army, Navy, Hopkins and Maryland Included on their list.’’

STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF NEW JERSEY

when not pitching, Dieckelman has been a full-blown bust at the plate thus far, poling only one hit in eight tries. Against Penn he rapped out a bingle and yesterday two Harvard chukkers shut him out as George- town splurged for five runs in the fifth to eke out a 6-4 decision. Sir Richard was handcuffed.

Coach Judge Optimistic. But Judge isn’t at all worried

about 'the lad’s inability to get going. “Two games isn’t enough to meas-

ure any hitter,” he said. "Some of your greatest major leaguers got off to slow starts and went hitlffss for days, not two or three games, but days And they were looking at pitching every day. not twice a week like college boys. When Dieckelman does start banging the ball they’ll have to get an injunction to stop him. He has the eye and co-ordina- tion to be a good hitter and I know he’ll come through.

"Anyway, you’ll see a pretty good left-hander when he pitches this afternoon. Maybe working in right field has slowed up his Ditching, but I don’t think so. If he's right you’ll see a No. 1 thrower and if he comes through on the hill he won't have to hit. He’s a pitcher pri- marily and you know what terrible batters they are.”

Swarthy Lou Ghecas, George- town's third sacker, paced the hit- ting yesterday with three for four, including a double. He scored cne run and drove in another and han- dled three chance in the field with- out a bobble for a well-nigh perfect day.

Errant Roller Start* Rally. The big fifth started with a break

when Schmitt's easy roller to third took a bad hop and went for a* hit and the rally was helped along by Torby McDonald's error on Russ Miller's liner and a wild pitch by Burgess Ayers, who came in to re- lieve Charley Brackett. Ghecas’ j double, singles by Mylnarski and Koshlap and a pass to Castiglia fig- ured in the lively proceedings.

Harvard got its first two runs in the first half of the same frame on singles by Tully and Pulton—with Pitcher Johnny Smith hitting Ed Buckley with a stray curve in be- tween and McDonald's whistling double to right center.

Buckley's triple and singles by Charley Spryer and Bob Pulton, with Ayers’ infield out sandwiched in. accounted for the Crimson's final tallies. Harvard AB H. O A. G'town AB.H. O A.

Colonials' Poor Play Bears Out Mentor As Pessimist

Battery Weakness Shows Up as Buff and Blue Bows to Dartmouth

Ed Morris wasn't making sound tests when he predicted few vic- tories for his sophomoric George Washington nine if yesterday’s 8-2 loss to Dartmouth was a criterion. Off the form displayed the Colonials can improve with a bit of tighten- ing here and there and develop into a fairly good nine with 8 or 10 games under their belts.

Morris intended to shuffle the line-up for tomorrow’s test with Vermont and hoped for better re- sults both in the field and at bat. Six hits were all the Colonials culled from the combined offerings of Bob McNeary and Wonson, two rattling off Roy McNeil’s war club. They used two to advantage in the second to score a run and added another marker in the eighth and final in- ning.

A walk to Broberg. who went to third with the aid of a passed ball and a wild pitch which hit Orr, who went to second without interference, arranged the trappings for Dart- mouth’s initial score. Reeves’ single brought them home and he came in on Zimmer's double. Thereafter G. W. was never in the ball game.

The Colonial pitchers are 'wav behind schedule and the catching is woefully weak. G Wf.sh AB. H O.A D tm th. AB H O A. Oertel.cf 4 1 it n Burns If S 3 2 O G rber.'lb. 4 <1 ] 2 Brob a cf. 3 1 3 0 Gilh m ss. 4 1 3 5 Orr.2b 3 1 3 »
