Speakingi of Sports LSRR RN LR AR R a a n s B Atlorney Harry Ginsberg is derlv. Ing no little satisfaction’ from noting the defeat of Holy Cross yesterday at the hands of Villa Nova. Harry intends to witness the Holy Cross-Fordham game and after yes- (erday's activity at Villanova thinks ho will enjoy it much better, Joking aside, however, both Ford- ham and Holy Cross have remark- ably fine teams this season and should make the rest of the inter- colleglate baseball world sit up and take notice, Holy Cross’ great battery and in- field is hard to surpass, while Ford- ham doubtless has the makings of one of her greatest all round teams, A number from this city plan to wit- ness the game when these two out- fits meet in Worcester, « CGeoige Kelly, 1744-4, Is manager of the Dublins who want baseball games. The team averages 14-18 years. Ken Saunders, manager of the Pirates, 1s busy trylng to book games and announces that Kania, last year with the Falcons, had definitely decided to cast his lot with the Pirate crew. In 1900 “Doc” Amole, pitching for [Buffalo, got away to an auspicious opening day start by shutting out | Detroit without the semblance of a hit. The score was 8 to 0. Amole, obviously, was in great | shape that afternoon, holding the heavy-hitting, Tigers in check all the way., And they never seriously | throatened the offerings of the Bison | fhurler efther. It was one of the greatest ganmes | Amole ever hurled and was even | nore noteworthy in that it was dished up on the opening day of the son. Tennis seems to be exceptionally ow in getting under way here. f\Worl on the courts at Walnut Hill park has just been started, although | n other citles play has been going on for almost a month. The late start here is handicapping the high | «hool tennis team, which is due to ypen the season a week from tomor- ow but which has no place to prac- i Not only that, but the mem- | of the team have been unable | 0 huy tennis balls in the local sport- | ng goods stores. The silver cup awarded to the Jiovs' club Reserves at the victory | wnquet Wednesday evening was | nade by a member of the Merlden ‘lub, which ran second to the locals | n the triangular league. This boy | s a student at the Meriden 'rrnde“ chool and produced it there as a | sart of his school work. It is a| Joautiful piece of workmanship and | Lompares favorably with any made | y the established firms in this line. Witli Babe Ruth under the knife | Gday for abscesses which have de- oloped since his removal to the hos- tal a week ago, Manager Huggins | jrepared 10 arrange his Yankee | ifeup in anticipation of month's play king. He announced that Ben Pas- | hal would take Babe's place only | hgainst left-hand pitching, while | Vhitey Witt wili perform when the | ight handers are on the firing line. Some of the recognized hitting | tars of both major leagues are mak- ng slow starts this spring. Harr feilmann, Eddie Collins, Max Carey, j:adie Roush and Béb Meusel are a ow of the veteran .300 clouters who failed to Connect safely yestcrday. New York teams produced the cading base-hit hunters in the third bames of Dboth leagues. Frank Valker of the Giants and Joe Dugan | f the Yankees both garnered four Irives out of five times at bat, Gos- | in of the Senators and Hartnett of he Cubs jumped into the thick of he home run contest with a brace bt circuit clouts each, ntries in open events in the an- nkers' indoor track meet at hicago tonight include Willie Ri- ola, running-mate of Paavo Nurmi, | Jole Ray, Tllinois Athletic club star, | Haln, Harold Osborn, Justin | tussell, Helen Filkey and Katherine Ritola will run a 3,000-meter ace. The defeat of Holy Cross at the | hands of Villanova yesterday by 9 to broke a winning streak of 23 traight victories for Eng- and coliege. Pitcher Harry Grif- | ith was the hurdle over which Holy “ross tripped. He allowed the vis- | tors only three hits up to the ninth.
