CONCANNON IS LAST IN CUE TOURNAMENT By the Associated Press CHICAGO, March 7.—The 10 con- testants in the national pocket billiard championship tourney were divided into two classes today, half having clear slates and the others having one or more defeats at the end of the first round of games. The three who have worn the title, Frank Taberski of Schenectady, N. Y., incumbent, and Ralph Greenleaf of Philadelphia and Erwin Rudolph of Chicago, came through the first series in easy fashion. Pasquale Natalie of Baitimore and Peter Durocher of Chi- cago also won their first matches, Joseph Concannon of Washington was in last place, with two defeats; Harry Wood of Duluth broke even in two games and Andrew Ponzi of Phila- delphia, Onofrio Lauri of New York and Harry Oswald of Pittsburgh had one defeat each. Greenleaf turned in the quickest vic- tory of the tourney in defeating Con- cannon last night, 125 to 50, in eight innings. Wood beat Laurl, 125 to 43, In the other evening game. Today's pairings: Durocher vs. Laurl. Greenleaf vs. Ponzi. Natalie vs. Wood. Taberski vs. Concannon. Glenna Collett Shoots a 74 To Lead Women’s Tournament By the Assoclated Press. T. AUGUSTINE, Fla, March 7.— With Glenna Collett in the van by virtue of a scintillant and rec- ord-breaking card of 74 turned in to lead the qualifiers, a clever fleld of America’s woman golfers today entered the first round of the Florida East Coast championship. ‘The star from Providence, R. I, in outstripping the qualifying fleld yester- day, went out in 36 and came home in 38 Her outward journey recorded the only 6 her card revealed. Available records showed no score which could compete with Miss Collett's 74 in the history of woman's competitive golf in America. Virginia Van Wie of Chicago, who like Miss Collett has been decidedly on her game this Winter, came next in the medal round with 82. Maureen Orcutt of Englewood, N. J, another luminary, was one stroke farther back. Florence Burrowes of New York, who carded a 92 yesterday, drew the assign- ment of attempting to stop Miss Collett today. NEW YORK, March 7 (#).—Glenna Collett's sparkling 36—38—74 in the qualifying rownd of the Florida East Coast golf tournament at St. Augustine is an indication that this remarkable young woman of the golfing world is in the form that may bring to her once more the triumphs she gained in the national tournaments in 1922 and 1925 Her score surpassed by 3 strokes the women's record for the St. Augustine course, but beyond that it revealed that she is adding to her superb tee shots some outstanding ability with the irons and a bit of astounding form on the greens. It is true she had one bad tee shot. one topped second and one three putt green, but against these she had five par holes and a birdie on the first six. Miss Collett’s best medal qualifying round in the National was made at St. Louis in 1925, when she hung up a 78, being surpassed only by Alexa Stirling Fraser's 77. Form held true that year, and when these two met in the final, Miss Collett carried off the honors. In 1922, when Miss Collett first won the title at White Sulphur Springs, she was medalist, with an 81. She was the first to break 80 in the woman's Nationel tournament—a 79 at the Rhode Island Country Club. None of America's present-day woman golfers have equaled Miss Collett's great work with the wood, and if she carries on through the season with the stride she displayed yesterday at St. Augustine her triumphs may be the greatest of her career.

EW YORK, March T7.—Gene | Tunney may have his social obligations to fulfill while | spending most of the Win in Florida, but he is not allow- ing them to interfere with prepara- tions for his fistic engagements in the Summer. The picture of Gentleman Gene, as brought back from Miami Beach b the big gymnasium and muscle man, Artle McGovern, 1s not of an athlet repose on the sands, but of an energetic young business man concentrating upon | the plans for one or two deals this year, in left hooks preferred. “Tunney is close to fighting shape right now, training regularly and thor- oughly,” sald McGovern. “Like Babe Ruth, he knows the value of all-year- around condition. Gene is within three pounds of his best fighting weight now. He doesn’t vary that much the year around, he told me. For those who may be skentical of | the way s lis a s McGovern: ! Up and dressed by 8:30 or 8 7 ularly, after going through a series of setting-up exercises. Ring workout, rope skipping, shadow boxing and sparring with one or more of his camp mates.

Afternoon diversion, usually golf, the champion’s only sports hobby outside the ring.
