FOSTER. 4 EW YORK, October 22.—As base ball fans continue to N argue over the world series’ pitching, especially the “comparative effectiveness of Lefty ~@rove and George Earnshaw of the Athletics, it is of interest to s'note that unofficial figures give * the most strike-outs of the 1930 season to Grove. His total is ..above 190, and there is reason Zt0 believe that the Philadelphia southpaw will be in the lead when the official averages are made - public. Earnshaw is stcond in the ~ American League, with more than 185. Both Grove and Earnshaw are speed pitchers. Both of them have a curve ball, that of Grove being more of & nder than Earnshaw’s.

For the past five months the senior golfers of the club have been competing in a selected score event, in which the seniors played either nine or 18 holes and if they were fortunate enough to better their best score on any hole, they placed the score on the big ringer score board. For the same length of time the woman golfers of the club have been playing in a similar event.

EW YORK, October 22.—An in- quiring reporter no doubt could journey from the Battery to the Bronx, if his dogs held out, without finding any one who gives Abie Bain a chance to take the light-heavy- weight title from Maxie Rosenbloom when they meet in Madison Square Garden tonight. Yet there have been such upsets. Ring history, even the chronicle of champlonship contests, 1s studded with startling form reversals. Going back to the beginning of the glove era, it was4 considered a sign of softening of the brain if any one suggested that Corbett, the California dude, had a chance with Sullivan, roaring Boston strong boy. Johnny Buff wasn't given & look-in with Pete Herman, but he won. Recent- ly the New York Boxing Commission barred a Pields-Thompson bout with the J statement that it was too lopsided. mach went to Detroit and Thom) took the title from Fields. Billy McCarney, old song and dance man of the sock market, recalls that the sharps gave Ad Wolgast no chance to win from Battling Nelson when they clashed at Port Richmond, Calif, on Washington’s birthday in 1910. Wol- gast won on a technical knockout in the fortieth frame of what was to have been a 45-round battle. McCarney was promoting in San Francisco and had Nelson's promise to fight for the title. When Wol came along and won from Lou Powell, a fair lightweight, in 20 rounds, McCarney offered him the match, which Ad ac- cepted for a $2,500 guaranty.

SPORTS. Brilliant Field Is Promised For Bill Wood Bowling ’Stakes BY FRANCIS E. STAN. OW is the time, girls, to sign up for the Bill Wood Sweep- stakes. Just about a month remains to sharpen up for the big event which will open Saturday, November 22, at the King Pin No. 2 alleys. Lorraine Gulll, assistant secretary of the National Duckpin Bowling Con- gress, won't defend her two-time title, but the classiest field ever assembled is assured for the third annual 'stakes. and that Tumiber s expected o be oet numl e to be ex- e - ucille le, one of the city’s best feminine pin spillers and runner-up last vear to Lorraine Gulli, will toe the line, as will Catherine Quigley and Lucy Owen, the other prize winners of the 29 event. Lucille ran second to Miss Gulll last year, but was 81 pins behind as Lorraine smashed through with a brilliant 1,029 set for the nine- game pinfall. This sweepstakes a chance, and with national all- events women’s champion out of the fleld, it'd be about as hard to pick the favorites as it would finding & needle in the proverbial haystack. Lucy Owen figures to put up a real battle and means to finish higher than fourth. On her performances thus far it looks as though the girls will have to watch her closely.

Yep, that's what the redoutable leader of the King Pins did last night when his team was tossed for a two- game loss by the Rinaldi Tallors in the National Capital League. Up until last night, the Tailors had won only one game. Campbell in rolling his set, which would net him about tenth place in a ladies’ sweepstakes, bowled games of 95, 89 and 103, which should brighten the hopes of many a duffer. 4 Incidentally, Howard is away off to a slow start this season.
