Tom Caulfield of Plainville was only four points behind Rockwell and the same number ahead of Cliftord Bell of New Britain, Con- nors of Southington was fifth, with Chotkowski nosing out his Kensing- ton team mate, Malone, for sixth place by one point. Then ecame Morey of New Britain, with Wessels of New Britain and Nelson of Plaiuville tied for ninth position. No Bristol player figured seriously in the race. Not only were Miller's ¢4 fleld goals the most made by any league player, but he also showed the way in fouls with 27. Rockwell and Caulfield were his closest rivals in the former respect and Malone, Nichols of Southington, and Barta of New Britain tied for second place in foul-shooting. The New Britain team won the team sacoring honors, nosing out | Plainville by four points, 361 to 357.

Fort Myers, Fla, Fcb. 23 (M — The Athletics were slated for the lightest kind of limbering up work today, Manager Connie Mack hav- ing ordered his squad of 25 to go easy until next week. ‘The order was acceptable to most of the camp, yesterday's first work- out being followed today by the usual sore muscles. During a warming-up batting drill, Hume, late of S8outhern Metho- dist college, Dallas, Tex., looked un- usually good to the tall boss as an outfield possibility. The young Texan ranged far for fly balls and also looked good at the plate. Mickey Cochrane, holdout catcher, is still an absentee, and Perkins, Glowacki, Foxx and Dan O'Rourke 2| alternated behind the bat. The lat- ter is & son of Tim O'Rourke, a ma- jor league player in the days when Connie Mack was with the Pitts- burgh Pirates.

Eyes Towards 8an Francisco, Feb. 23 (A—Hav- ing eliminated another aspirant to his title, Mickcy Walker, middle- weight champion, turned his atten- tion today to the light heavyweight title. Walker gave Jack Willis, 8an An- tonio slugger, a beating in a ten- round non-title bout at the S8an Francisco baseball park yesterday in their second meeting. A year ago. on Washington’s birthday, the champion ook a hard fought deci- sion from the Texan. Yesterday he added a more dccisive touch by beating Willis in eight rounds, al- lowing his opponent one round, and holding one even. Walker was on his way to Los | Angeles today. ¥'rom there he \.ill g0 to Chicago where next month he will meet Tommy Loughran, light heavyweight, for the latter's title. Yesterday's bout drew a gate of more than $3,000.
