"% THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY. JUNE 10, 1927. Boston Nationals Finding Tough Opposition in Current Swing Through West BANCROFT’S CLUB SUFFERS FOR ITS FLARE-UP IN 1926 Havoc Wrought by Braves With the Cards, Reds, Pi- rates and Cubs on Final Visit to Hub Last Sep- tember Now Is Being Repaid. BY JOHN B. FOSTER. W YORK, June 10.—The Bos- on Braves, whose stubborn fight in the closing days of the 1926 pennant race blasted a lot of championship hopes, are finding the West hostile territory in their present invasion of the lakes and river territory. The Chicago, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh playi have been admon Braves no quarter this season for fear the pesky Bosten team again will upset the apple cart. The Braves play the Cardinals in “St. Louis again today, after dropping a game Thursday afternoon that atoned for the Cards’ defeat on the previous day. The Cardinals, however, were defeated twice by the Braves when the Western teams made their first call at Boston. St. Louis was the only team to lose on the Boston ground, the Western series standing seven to two against the Braves on their own ground. Split Even With Cubs. Thus far in the West the Braves are not making the Western teams eat beans from their hands, but they are playing some of their old tricks again. They have broken even with the Chi- cago Cubs, which made the Cubs so mad that they are taking it out on the hides of the hapless Brooklyn team. The Boston team in 1926 won 41 games from the Western teams and lost 46 to them, and in the month of September every Western club devel- opend nervous prostration before it got out of Boston. The Cincinnati Reds felt last year that they owed the Braves an awful grudge because Boston helped to knock them out of the pennant. Tech- nically, the Reds ailege that the Giants' beat them out of the cham- pionship, but sentimentally the Cin- cinnati fans never will forget the fly hits that Roush dropped in Boston. Had he held those fly balls the Cin- cinnati management might not have been led into so many trades this year. Donie Bush, the new manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, also was_im- pressed with the feeling that the Bos- ton team had helped materially to jolt the Pirates out of the championship last season. His advice to the Pirates was to give the Braves an extra jolt in_return this_season. During the Florida training season Manager Bob O'Farrell of the Cardi- nals had some things to say to his men about their treatment of the Braves. . “If there’s one thing that we don’t forget,” he said, it is that Boston mighty near put us on our back at the wvery end of last season. The rallying word this year ‘Down with the Mas- St. Louis and all, sachusetts palefaces braves.” McCarthy Respects Braves. Joe McCarthy, manager of the Cubs, made a little speech like this at the beginning of the season: “Remember the Braves, just as you remember the Maine. We rode into Boston last year as conquerors and were throttled. They climbed our necks and choked us when we had vis- ions of a pennant. Put every man to his guns when we play Boston.” It is true that the Braves did not play well enough in 1926 to win the pennant, but teams often play well enough at the last moment to beat other clubs out of pennants. The Braves' haven't really taken to the warpath yvet, but the Western teams will be worried about them until the last ball is pitched in the 1927 season. “HEAVY” SITUATION HAS FANS GUESSING By the Associated Press, The present watchful waiting policy in caulifiower circles appears, at least, to be giving ringside observers an op- who pose as as to how Tex Rickard will solve his heavyweight puzzle. It is possible just now, for instance, to take your pick from these widely varying predictions: 1. Jack Dempsey is merely stalling to help the ballyhoo and won't fight again at all, thereby assuring a match between Gene Tunney and Jack Sharkey for the title. 2. Dempsey will postpone his come- back and meet the winner of a Sharkey-Tunney bout, either this Fall or mext year. 3. Dempsey will announce his come- back shortly and sign to meet Sharkey in August, the winner to meet Tunney in September. 4. Tex Rickard is about convinced that this is an off year for big box office attractions, especially if Demp- sey doesn’t return to the ring, and will put off the next heavyweight championship fray until 1928. f a big championship fight is held, Chicago’s big arena, Soldiers’ Field, will provide the scenery, in plr]e!(erence to New York or Philadel- phia. Considering the width of range, it sems likely that at least one or two of these predictions will hit the mark. ks S King George doesn’t care much for racing or hunting, and golf has never appealed to him. Yachting is his fa- vorite outdoor recreation and his fa- vorite indoor game is billiards.

LONDON, June 10.—Eve’s head- way in the arena of sports has kicked up a row which has been smoldering for months. The fact that men do not like to beat women at games nor on the other hand be beaten by them has brought the co- sport-question to a head. Alarm and indignation has been expressed by men at the increas- ing invasion by women of realms of the “social sport” which, until a few years ago, were regarded as the exclusive preserve of their hus- bands and brothers. Some of the golf clubs have al- ready considered protests that there were too many woman mem- bers, while the increasing partic pation of horsewomen in steeple- chasing and point-to-point races is reported by objectors to be incom- patible with the keen competitive spirit which enters into these con- tests. The latest outery is against wom- an bowlers. It is contended by one authority that women should not intermingle with men on the bowl- ings greens, but should form their own clubs. In this connection it is pointed out that the Wells (Somerset) Bowl- ing Club has banned women from the greens on the ground that they have proved “an absolute nui- sance.” E. E. Moore, former president of the English Bowling Association, and a former English champion, says: fen do not. like to play with members of the oppostie sex, chief- Iy because we do not like to beat or to lose to a woman. This ap- plies particularly to competitions. Women should form their own clubs.” A Sussex women’s bowling club applied recently for affiliation to the Sussex County Bowling Asso- ciation, but the men turned them down. George Hills, secretary of the Bnglish Bowling Association, says there is no reason why women should not play bowls so long as they don’t encroach on men’s pre- serves. The one branch of sport in which women are not unwelcome appears to be tennis. “The more the mer- rier” is the slogan of the players on both sides. Reggie McNamara is credited with having won 12 six-day bicycle race events. SPORT s’ ) 300 TO TAKE PART IN NATIONAL MEET By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, June 10.—The race for the individual American track titles of 1927 begins today at Soldier Field with more than 300 regional winners gathered to match strength and speed. Months of training and competi- tion have prepared these sectional champions for the final test of the track season today and tomorrow in their attack upon the records of five years set in the National Collegiate A. A. games. Eight conferences are represented in the list of event winners here for the national finals. Preliminaries to reduce the field were set for 2 p.m. today, with the finals at the same time tomorrow. Six of the marks in the 15 con- tests on the program were estab- lished at new figures only last year and the directors of the meet expect at least as many new records to be set this year if the Midsummer weather continues favorable. Stars from every school in the big ten, most of the universities in the Missouri Valley Conference, strong teams from the Southern, Southwestern and Pacific Coast Con- ferences, and five event winners in the Eastern L. C. Four-A are out- standing among the contestants. There will be no team trophy this year, but the coaches will meet to- night to vote upon returning to the team system used in the first two years of the meét. Former Senator Charles Rawson of Towa will referee the games. —_— BIG SPORTS ARENA FOR PHILADELPHIA By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, June 10.—Plans for the erection of an indoor sports arena capable of seating 25,000 per- sons and costing $3,000,000 have been announced by Edwin L. Rotschild, an architect, representing an unnamed syndicate of Philadelphians. ‘The structure will be known as the Garden and will duplicate the features of Madison Square Garden, but will be larger. Accommodations will be provided for all indoor sports. It was indicated that Tex Rickard, By the Associated Press. SAN ANGELO, Tex., June 10.—Me-| nard County ranchmen feel no envy for the sportsmen who shoot the live, heavy-winged pigeons at Monte Carlo. They get their sport by shooting buz- zards. A germ-carrying "ird, the buzzard is the particular enemy of stockmen. Hence traps are bullt to catch them. Two thousand were caught in one trap during two years. After a number have been collected they are released before a squad of shotguns in the hands of the ranch- men. Regular meets are held. Olympic Bike Track Done. AMSTERDAM, June 10 (#).—The cycling track is the first part of the Olympic Stadium to be completed for next year's Olympic meet. Construction on the stadiur: is pro- ceeding even ahead of expectations and the foot ball field has been laid out and covered with sod while the tunnels beneath the spectators' seats and leading from the cloak rooms to the fleld also have been completed. The grandstand is more than half way firished. All preliminary work on the grounds and buildings probably will he completed early in 1928. Woman Golfers Better. PARIS, June 10 (#).—As a class, the women of France do better a than the menfolk, in the belief Percy Boomer, who, as professional of the St. Cloud Country Club, has been laoking them over for several yedrs. “The French women will work hard to improve their golf,” Boomer said. “And they are great fighters.
