P adaaa o s SR XTI RN TS Speaking of Sports The New Britain National Guards will play All-Middletown in Middle- town Wednesday evening instead of Thursday as was at first scheduled. The Middletown manager notified Manager Clarence Lanpher of this city to that effect Saturday after- noon. lfld‘dletowu will play a return game In this city Saturday night and the Atlas A. C. of New Haven will follow on the next Saturday. The New Britain team was sched- uled to meet the Atlas in New Haven a week from this coming Friday but because of the lack of customers in the Elm City, the Atlas manager called the game off for that night, but he will bring his team to this clty a week from Saturday as scheduled. The Guards will play the Wash- ington Palace five of Baltimore on March 17 at the state armory. The Baltimore team is one of the leading outfits in the American basketball league, a strictly amateur rule com- bination. Judging from the manner in which the Guards disposed of the fast Brownsville Favorites at the state armory Saturday night, we are becoming convinced that basketball under amateur rules as it is played in ATHLETIGS T0 SEEK RECORDS TONIGHT Sabin Care, Pole Vaulter, fo Try to Scale 14 Fest in Mest | New York, Feb. 28 CP—America's | foremost indoor athletes will race Garden tonight in quest of twelve individual track and fleld champion- |letic union. Eleven of th. titlehold- ers crowned at the annual games last year have entered to face thelr challengers in a program that also |includes the appearance of Edvin Nurmi, a handicap 1500 meter event. Major interest in the meet centers in the attempt of Sabin Carr, pre- | mier American vauiter, to scale 14 {feet In the pole vault for the first |time in history. The Yale junior, who shattered the indoor mark by clearing 13 feet 9 1-4 inches at the New York A. C., games recently, will { be pushed in his efforts by Paul Har- rington, of the Boston A.

SCIENTIFIC STUDY OF HMMP!NE} |Anton Burg Says One Must Have, Knowledge of Mathematics | | Chicago, Feb. 28 (M—One must | meditate over mathematics and be cognizant of calculus if he hopes to high jump to a new record.

Burg explained that mass and | momentum must be considered and | computed. Then there is the dis-| tance to be travelied, the angle of | approach, the change of angle as| the bar is raised and the computa- | tion of the center of gravity and | the manner of paintaining it while | hurtling through the air. Burg, who fs captain of the Chica- go track team, said that his right| arm welghs approximately 123 | pounds and 4% pounds from elbow | to wrist, when held at a certain angle from his body. With a differ- ent angle for the crook of his elbow, his center of gravity would be main- | ¢ | could knock him cold, but any of tained at such an such a place. Burg sald he figured that by using the sam. the proper an legs and his head, he could ctly the right center of gravity which would permit him to add the few inches necded to high jump to | new records. But mathematics is not everything | in Burg's rules on how to become a | high jumper. At the mathematics building at the University of Chica- | go thers are 13 s leading from | the first floor to the sccond.

Mike McTigue, accord- Ing to his manager, Jimmy Johnston will take the match. While the debut of Paulino was of joy to the Spanish colony in New York, it did not have much effect upon elimination calcula- ti S, critics generally dectded that Paulino will not do and that the eclimination could proceed very well without him, The only attributes of a fighter he pos: s are ruggedness and will- ingness. His victory over Knute Hansen served only to prove the contention that Hansen has every- ng but a heart. oaulino fs too easy to hit and he is too slow to succeed against & ng big man with speed. It that Maloney or harkey, Jack Dempsey or Tunney them might cut him to pleces, blind him and stop him.
