W“‘“& Speaking § of Sports ; Al The National Guards swept the out-of-town jinx away yesterday aft- ernoon in Waterbury when they beat the St. Joseph’'s T. A. B. team of Waterbury in the Brass City. The game was played in the Phoe- nix avenue armory, the home of the Waterbury polo team. Waterbury people don't take their | basketball like we do here in New | Britain. There was only a small| crowd numbering about 300 and al-| most half of them were from New | Britain, This in itselt didn’t signi-| fy much, but the lack of enthusiasm | is very evident, | Yesterday, as good a game as| anyone would want to see was play-| d on the Waterbury floor. There| were exciting moments when the| tcams would be running neck and neck in scoring points. Waterbury | would get a basket at a crucial mo- | ment and a few handclaps would result. New Britaln would get a basket| and the New Britain contingent, | grouped all around the polo cage, would roar and whoop. The Guards had everything they lacked Saturday night. In the game ainst Middletown, the team, in- cluding almost every member, was “off.” In Waterbury yesterday, the players got back ‘“on” again with a vengeance. With the floor covered with pum- ice stone, the footing was precari- ous and for sefcral minutes in the first half, the locals were slipping about. After a thme, however, the New Britain team got its bearings and when the second half got under way, the Guards were playing the whirlwind game that characterizes their home games. Whoever it was at the state arm-| ory that wanted to malke a bet that| New Britain would wAn its next out-| of-town game because of a dream| tle night before, had the right| “hunch.” A New Britain fan, not/ knowing when or where the local were playing the next road game offered to make a bet that the team would win. He had had a dream the night before in which the| Guards were depicted as emerging victorious. Acting on the hunch, the bet was offered. We do not know | if the money was covered. The Guards are due to take | other Waterbury team into camp| next Saturday night at the The Brooklyn | will play here.| Brass City team came to New vas defeated by the| Guards. The Guards went to Wa- terbury and lost there by the big-| st score this scason, 42 to 24. { time for which it had secured the | Cleveland started the second half with their old red jerseys. They had lost so many games in these that the crowd told them they were jinxed when they changed, and so it proved, for the Blue Army ran up 28 points to the church’s 2. The South church-Wapping Com- munity club game in the County “Y" league was not played Saturday. It was scheduled for 6 o'clock and at 6:30 a telephone call to Wap- ping elicited the information that the team had left that place. But at 8 o'clock they had not arrived here and the local quintet, with the gym already long past, gave up waiting and went home. The wait of the Wapping pilgrimage is still to be learne SPEAKER MAY JOIN NEW YORK YANKEES Has Conlerence With Connie Mack and With Miller Huggins New York, Jan. 31 (UP)—Tris Speaker, deposed manager of the Indfans, according to gossip and bets being offered here today, will become a member of the| New York Yankees. After a conference in Philadel- phia with Connie Mack, manager of the Athletics, eaker came here and had a long talk with Ed Bar- row, business manager of the Yankees, and Miller Huggins, fleld manager. It terms were not reached during the conference it probably was be- cause of the promise glven by Speaker to Clarke Griffith, owner of the Washington Senators, that he would not close with any other club until he had heard Washington's proposition. It Speaker is looking for money and is considering his future, the Yankees no doubt, with the largest treasury in the league, could offer him a better proposition than the Athletics or the Senators. Connie Mack has spent about as much money as he can afford in building up the team since the 1926 eason closed and Washington hasn’t any too much wealth, 1t was taken for granted that Speaker could command a big bonus for signing a contract as well as getting a good salary. Zack Wheat, when he was relased by the Brook- yn Robins, got a bonus of at least $5,000 for signing a contract with the Athletics. New York fans are wondering, however, what the Yankees figure on doing with Speaker. He is too valluable a player to sit on the bench and if they used him in the outfield they would have to displace Earl Comb: Combs is a great star but he's| a good ball player.

The Pirates, in little more than two weeks of play, have spurted from the tail end of the American division to third place in the standing. | {for places [the Dixie mainstay with the Mobile club, the BOSTON HOPES FOR ANOTHER PENNANT Return of Bill Carrigan to Red Sox Regarded as Good Omen Boston, Jan. 31 (A—Champion- ship visions loom again before Bos- ton baseball fans with the return of Bill Carrigan as manager of the Red Sox. It was he who piloted the Red Sox to world’s championships in 1915-16 and then retired on his laurels, leaving material that brought Boston another world's title in 1918. Returning to the game after an absence of a decade, he now faces the task of making a winner out of a club that in recent years has been a tail-ender in the American League race. The Red Sox's most vulnerable spot last season was its battery weakness. A catcher himself, Car- rigan will concentrate on strengthen. ing the pitching and catching de- partments. New Orleans March 1. Freddy Hofmann is slated to be first-string backstop for the Red Sox during the coming season. He comes from the St. Paul club of the Amer- ican Association, where he was rated as one of the best For Hofmann's understudy, Carri- gan has Grover Cleveland Hartley, a veteran obtained from the India- napolis club. Three other recruits will be taken south as candidates for a catcher's job. They are Clif- 31.—Bobby | ford Knox, formerly with Hartford gol [ in the Eastern League, William Moore, from Portland, Maine, and Chester Horan, from Frederick, M A promising group of youngsters will contend with the veterans Chas. | |Ruffing, Jack Russell, Fred Wing field, Bryan Harris, Delmar Lund gren, Tony Welzer and Harold Wiltzs on the pitching staff.

In the deal that brought Catcher Hofmann to Boston, the Red Sox also acquired Paul Wanninger from St. Paul. Wanninger was consider- ed the outstanding shortstop in the American assoclation. To fill another gap in the infield, the Sox are count- ing on Russell Rollins, a youngster discovered by Scout Hug Duffey from ue where he was a Sox have recalled Jack Rothrock from Rochester and Bill Rogell from Jersey City as other inficld prospects.

Miss Bauer had been in the hos- pital 92 days critically ill, but news | {of her death came as a shock, as| recent reports had noted an im- provement in her condition. At her bedslde were her par- | ents, Mr. and Mrs, Carl Bauer, her | two brothers, Valentine and George | Bauer, her sister, Dorothy, and Ed- ward Sullivan, New York news- | | paperman, to whom she was to |have been married in June. Miss Bauer held 23 world's backstroke records in all distances from the 100 meter to the quarter | {mile event. Her victorics included | |the 1924 Olympic games back- | stroke championship. | Despite her comparative, youth, Miss Bauer had been engaged in |aquatic competition for neariy :eight years, She first took to the | water when she was 15 years old, a student in high school. Her career ran concurrent with that of {another great Chicago water star, {Johnny Weissmuller. | Both won many tank victories under the colors of the Illinois Athletic club. Leaving high school Miss Bauer |continued perfecting her backstroke at Northwestern university, |where she won her letter. She missed her degree of bachelor of arts at Northwestern by one term, | having been unable because of her {fliness to complete her final vear. Miss Bauer's last competition |was at St Augustine, Fla., last | February. | | She won the 100 vard backstroke there in one minute and 15 sec- | londs, which was four-fifths of |second slower than her wor {record made in 1923 at Loyola ur | versity, Chicago. Two years before the St. Aungus-| [tine competition Miss Bauer, swim- | !ming at Miami, established a| ‘world's mark in the 200 meter { backstroke, her time being three | minutes, three and four-fifths sec- | {onds. At Bermuda in 1922, the | swimmer, who was then still in' hil 24 4-5 seconds, been |ters in six minutes, |a record that has never |equalled by a woman. | Friends said that the illness that [cost her life dated from the St. | Augustine competition. | At Northwestern uni A rsity Miss | McGrath, | mer throwers; |sorority sisters of Northwestern had been visiting her in the hos- | pital assisting in the gathering for [her hope chest.

The words which sent a thrill through police channels of Illinoig | and Michigan, were uttered yester- day by Martin Dale, who with a com« | panion, Ray O'Neill was mortally wounded in a pistol battle with po- lice in an attempted holdup here. One officer was killed and another seriously wounded. Dale, taken to a hospital, whispered to an officer. | “Tommy O'Connor had the low~ | down on this (the drugstore hold. up) and told us we couldn’t miss.” | Dale asked that his mother in | Wilmington, Calif.,, be notified and died before police could question him | further, | Authorities immediately got in | touch with Chicago police in the | belie? that Dale's companion might | have been O'Connor. The Chicago authorities, howev {dentified the body as that of O'Neill, who they | aid was known in Chicago and | Milwaukee, | Through relatives of Dale in Chi- ‘ cago, the police learned that the twa { holdup men had visited a friend in | the Michigan state prison at Jackson whom they believed to have been | O’Connor and officers were immedi- ately dispatched to the institution, They expected to arrive at the prison today when an inspection of the in« | mates and prison records will ba made. Prison authorities said they, had no record of either Dale or | O'Neill ever having visited the prison and scouted the possibility of O'Con< | nor's imprisonment there. | Meantime Detroit police following a tip that O'Connor had been direct« ing operations of a band of criminaly | here scoured the city's underworld | for trace of the gunman. | A negro caught holding up a stors | by one of the squads on the hunt for | O'Connor, was shot to death when he | resisted arrest. | Since “Terrible Tommy's" escape he has been reported variously as in Mexico, Central and South America and Canada. | BIG BOOZE SEIZTRE New Haven, Jan. 31 (P—Wines {and whiskey valued at more than | $4,000 were seized in a house at 229 | Portsea street last night and the ad- without making him bleed because Bauer was president of the Wom- {ha purchase of an available site for | Mitted owner, Mrs. Mary Sorcenellf T knew the police would jump in|an's Athletic association and was a | pionfe grounds, | was arrested on Uquor charges.
