The fact that Scott's pitching arm has been bad all spring has caus- ed the Reds to question whether the the Braves management knew his condition when the trade was made. Manager Mitchell of the Boston team sald there was no reason to doubt 8cott's condition at the time. Cinein- nati regretted the deal an hour after it was made, he said. The Red management is reported to be gathering facts for submission to Commisioner Landis. Scott has been questioned. He is reported to have said that his arm troubled him slightly in one game toward the close of last season, and that he had to abandon a barnstorming trip hecause of it. He has no reason to believe that the Boston management knew of it, however, he is said to have told the Cincinnati officials.

Tomor- 22, IN STATE DUCKPIN MATCH TONIGHT — MAJOR LEAGUES READY FOR OPENING GAMES OF SEASON TOMORROW — JACK DEMPSEY SAILS TODAY FOR EUROPEAN TRIP — LOCAL BOWLERS MAY FORM SEMI-PROFESSIONAL NINE Sports at Rutgers New Brunswick, N. J., April 11, All atiletie activities, even including the dally practices, have been sus pended Indefinitely at Rutgers college on account of scarlet fever which has developed at Winants Hall, one of the dormitories, Collgge authorities are taking all precautions against an cpi- demic, and have announced that col lege would be closed. The laster vi- catlons was scheduled to begin Wed- nesday afternoon, Cornell's lacrosse team, which was listed to meet the Itutgers twelve here this afternoon, was notified that the game must be cancelled, No other contests are scheduled, either at home or away, until April 22, but none of the couch- €8 expects to resume practicing until next week at least, T0 DEFEND TITLE Benny Leonard Agrees to Fight Kither n ee, White or Kansas, at row the majors will take to their home diamonds for the opening clash of the big time circuits, It seems only a few weeks ago that Johnny Raw- lings, misfit baseball star, compieted the famous double play which beat back the New York Yankegs and guve the Giants another world's champion- ship, yvet the mad whirl of the flug riaces is once more on us. The baseball suffering south has been the victim of its annual milk- ing by the various big league out- fits which are once again on familiar soil and ready for another hectic battle right down to the October stretch. While another year has rolled by, it's still the old cry: “Beat New York,” in both leagues. The New. son are picked to repeat and it seems son, are picked to repeat it seems us a sthough nothing but a flock of mira- cles will prevent these teams from “cashing in." Interest till Keen Interest in the coming races seems to *+be as Kkeen as ever. Training camp attendances were not up to those of fgrmer yeurs, the one ex- ception being the Ruppert and Huston “Babe Ruth” Circus. The Babe still can pack 'em in no matter where he goes. However, training trip attendances were affected by a cold spring in the South, and because most of the South and Bouthwest, particularly Texas, has been milked dry for exhibition pur- poses, The lawyer and his office boy, the garage owner and his mechanic, the stock broker and his clerk are as iMterested in what will take place at the Polo Grounds tomorrow as they were just a week ago, and 2 year be- fore that. And they'll all be there, with their sister and brothers. You can't keep a good sport down. Whole Nation Interested All over this vast country Thursday morning millions of eyee will be wandering down the little column of figures to see what Horns- by, Bancroft, Baker and Heilman hit the day before. Another cycle of the schedule wheel brings the first National L.eague openings in New York Phila- delphia, Cincinnati and 8t. Louis. while jin the American league Wash- ington, Boston, Chicago and Cleveland drew the opening plums. Tht echedule makers came to a happy choice when they selected the first opponent for the world's champ- fon Giants. The Brooklyn club which has been a most perniclous foe of the Harlem men for two years, wili help the champs of the universe tc make the fur fly on the Polo Grounds. The Glant-Brooklyn rivalry now it as intense as that which existed be. tween the Giants and the Cubs fo many years. And in the last twr years Brooklyn fans have had much opportunity to exult, and they ar boys who know how to do it. Ir 1920, Brooklyn defeated the second place Giants of that year, fifteen games to seven, and in 1921, Mc- Graw's first world's championshij vear in sixteen, he lost the Brooklyn series, twelve game to ten. Yanks in Washington he Yanks will open the seasor down in Washington, with the presi- dent, members of the cabinet and a lot of il congressmen . and lame ducks looking on. They probably will be severely tested in their first series with Washington. The Senators, from all account, are one of the most im- proved teams in baseball this year, and a lot of folks predict they wil prove the dark horse in the Ameri- can league marathon. Hugging him- self says he has as much respect for Washington as for any tear in the league, and says they probably will play great ball for the first two | months. After that he thinks the Senators will begin to drop to their proper level.

MAY ORGANIZE TEAM Billy Clancy Arranging for the For- mation of a Bascball Team to Rep- resent Rogers' Recreation Alleys, Steps are being taken by several lo- ‘al men to organize a semi-profes- sional baseball team, consisting of men who have been prominent in the bowling circles around Rogers' Rec- ‘ecation alleys this weason. RBill ‘lancy, former atar third baseman of the Poli and other teams in the state, is taking an actlve interest in the for- nation of the team.
