Three years ago Manager Miller Huggins of the Yankees decided that Mays was about through as a| pitcher. He starred in the 1921 world serles with the Giants, then appeared to pasas out of the picture, For two seasons he did little more than warm the Yankee bench He seldom started a game and when he did the breaks invariably went| against him. Speed Seemed Gone Mays, who for years had been a | pitching sensation in the American Jeague as well as a stormy petrel in that organization, seemed 1o have lost his fast ball.

Planning to sail for home early in May without competing on eastern outdoor tracks, the famous Finn signed entry blanks for 11 meets in this country and Canada and tentatively agreed to compete in three more. The schedule, which is regarded as final in view of the National Ama- teur Athletic Union's decision that |Nurmi should sign for all meets in which he expects to run, is as fol- lows: March Artillery New York city; 26—106th tillery games, Bufl 107th Field Artillery game., ield Ar- and 28— gumes, Pitts- 31—Elks' games, Boston; Ottawa; 4—>Montreal; 6 and 19— Loyola College games, Chicago; 20—S8t.

Both men lexceeded the featherweight class |limif. Chapman weighed 127 pounds and Dundee 131. Clever boxing by Chapman, com- |bined with aggressive tactics, gave Inim an advantage over Dundee in eight of the 10 rounds, according to | ringside observers, Chapman beat |Dundee to the punch consistently, | seoring with a left jab to the face with a frequent right cross to the w. Dundee led in points in the first round but in later rounds was unable {to get set in the fast pace forced by |Chapman.

W.-Rule Shep s, Landers Are Big Attrgcuons The battle for first honors in the Dusty League will be on again to- night, Landers team who are still very much in the running, will run up against the Stanley Rulers. Li week saw the Rule Shop team stage a come-back stunt and set Russell & Erwin on even terms with them for the cellar position. The play of the Rulera was very much im- proved and with Les Woodford and his hirelings dropping them in from all angles any team to face them will have to shop their best game. On the other hand the Landers team which were downed by the fast traveling Stanley Works team in thelr last match will be out to get back into the win column, The green-clad youngsters have not been at their best during the past two games, but Gook's quintet are capable of putting up as good a game as any of the leaders and they will die fighting hard. The second game of the evening will see P. & F. Corbin, present leaders with Corbin Cabinet Lock, line up against Jack Pelletier ang his Stanley Workers. The Stanley W, Zehrer to team with the speedy Paul LaHar, have one of the clas- siest outfits sporting the colors of the Dusty League this year.

Iddie Truhan, runner- up, made 61 points, but in doing sv shot 27 fleld goals and led the leaguc in that respect. Mike Grip followed with 66 and then G. Baylock and Kramer with 61 apiece, Kramer shot the most foul goals, getting of the single-counting variety, A rq markable record was made by I'loy- &owski, who got into the league with the Pelicans in the last six games and amassed 49 points; had he play- ed all year there is little doubt but what he would have led, Leco Mich- alowski, with 36 points in ecight games, also deserves much credit. On the other hand, Cianci, Normant and J. Was played 10 games apiece without scoring. The Pelicans, winners of first place and the American Legion cup, socred the most points, 182, and the most field goals, 80, while the tafl- end Harmonies led in foul shooting with 41, The Pelicans, starting late, soon got near the top of the league, then passed the Panthers and won with- jout any trouble, the addition of Florkowski proving the deciding ractor in their final rush, The Paw- (nees hung around the 500 mark all ason, being led in scoring by an and G.
