Each side mauled f' dom of the field. Yankees Outpunch W York Giants. By the Associated Prcss. Current suspicion has it that Connie Mack is beginning another | forced-march along the paths of | baseball glory, but even as the Phila- | delphia patriarch girds gaunt loins| for the long drive toward October gold, the portly form of Daniel P.| Howley riges to bar the way. Stand- ing sentinel over Sportsman’s park. with Crowder and Ogden and Gray 'pouring brimstone over the parapet, General Howley, for the moment least, threatens Athletics and Yan- kees alike. The Champion Yankees had their troubles yesterday again but out- punched Washington while the Red Sox hurled back the Mackmen. The A’s remain favorites if the Yanks do fail, but the gait of the Browns can- | not be overiooked. Two weeks do not make a baseball season, but the Browns already have flashed enough to justify any fears which Messrs Huggins and Mack may entertain. The Howley tribe closed out in Detroit yesterday with a 6 to 5 vic- tory, which made three out of four In the series and ten out of fourteen for the season. The triumph also gave the Browns more breathing space over the second-place Athlet- ica, who have disputed the lead with week. “ Ogden had to have the aid of the yeteran Rip Collins to turn back the Tigers yesterday, and Rip got credit | for the victory.

The least said about the events at #he Yankee Stadium, the kinder it will be for all concerned. The cham- _ plons pulled out a 10 to 9 decision over the Senators in the tenth on Fred Heimach's double. The Hug- " men had stood idly by while the _ Senators were scoring five runs to three pitchers, Tom Zachary being perhaps the heaviest sufferer. ‘The White S8ox won another from the skidding Indians, this time by 3 to 4. The National League spotlight centered upon Arthur Vance, who Jet the Giants down with three small _‘singles at Ebbets Field, and won by 3 to 0 even with the mad Robins at "~ his back. Bill Walker gave Brook- lyn just four hits, but three of these were concentrated into the fifth round when Gilbert doubled with the bases filled. Vance fanned seven.

The far west's best, few in num- ber, have been considered lightly in the past by the turfmen of the east but this year it is a different story. Naishapur, Ervast and Voltear, a the derby from the west, are com- manding the attention of leading s: [horsemen. w| Naishapur, a son of Omar Khay- U |yam, the only imported colt ever to win the American turf classic, com- mands attention because of his me- teoric racing at Tijuana, where he won the Tijuana derby and was beaten by only a head for the Coff- roth $100,000 handicap, the richest stake event in America. The chest- nut son of Omar Khayyam is owned by Earl Chaffee of California and is being trained by John McKee, a Kentucky turfman Ervast, California’s equine ex- press. which has come out of a maze of mystery as a derby contender, has caused no little comment the last few days following the report of his sensational workout at Tijuana Sun- day. Here is what Ervast did in making one of his final gestures be- fore leaving for Churchill Downs: In a 1 1-4 mile workout he made the mile in 1:36 3-5. the mile and eighth in 1:49 4-5, and galloped out the final quarter in 2:05 2-5 “leccceemceceoeT 5. The work- out was one-fifth of a second f: than the running time of the ana derby where Naishapur and V tear staged their battle, heads apart, and in which Ervast finished way back. The time for the mile was one second faster than the Tijuana track record. Baron lLong. owner and breeder of Ervast, will ship his colt east this week. Voltear may not exactly be class- ed as a western horse, since he now is running under the colors of the Dixiana Farm of Kentucky, owned by R. T. Fisher of Detroit. But Vol- tear, a great horse as a two-year- old and a greater horse this year if his workouts are any criterion, is a western bred colt. He was sold to Fisher by the Nevada Stock Farm. The Dixiana derby candidate jumped into the spot light last Sat- urday, when he won the Chesapeake stakes at Havre de Grace in im- pressive fashion. Out at Tijuana tenth position to defeat the Voltear the last time in the Tijuana derby, in which he was in receipt of four pounds. Naishapur came up from tenth pogition to defeat the Voltar gelding at a mile and a furlong. Tn the Coffroth handicap Voltear finish- ed unplaced but if his race at Havre is any indication the Dixiana colt is a much improved horse. mwlosccmcccocczom n. Laverne Fator., contract rider for the Kancocas stable of Harry Sin- clair, is well on his way for leading hider honors on the New York tracks. In the seven days of racing at Jamaica, Yator has had 24 mounts. Nine times he has ridden the winner and three times the place horse. Yesterday he booted two winners home, one of them Shan Tung, which paired with Per- icles to duplicate the stunt of other juveniles of the Rancocas stables. finishing one-two.

EDDIE REED WL BATILE PIC&RD Hartford Boy Has Won His Last Twelve Bouts Conscutively Hartford, May 1—Eddie Reed, who meets Jimmy Picardi of New York in the eight-round semi-final to the Pancho Villa-Eddie Lord bout at Foot Guard hall Thursday night, has won his last 12 bouts and sees this skirmish as win No. 13, Eddie not being at all superstitious about the “13" hoodoo. Eddie has developed at a great rate the past year and has claimed many well known boys as his vic- tims, among them ‘*‘Buster” Nadeau and “Kewpie” Ledoux, a pair of battlers for whom Eddie would have s JIMMY PICARDI been fairly easy not so long ago. He meets a good boy in Picardi, but he is expected to win. Eddie Lord is hard at work for his bout with Villa. Eddie's ambi- tion, since his defeat of Tony Leto, has been a bout with Bat Battalino and he has been promised that bout if he can beat the clever New Bed- ford boy at Foot Guard hall Thurs- day night. Lord has had more experience than Villa, who is very young, but the New Bedford fast, smart and a good puncher; it shapes as a great battle. “Zeke Mazier, who recently scored a technical kayo over Gerald Emard in a bout here, clashes with Mickey Baline of Indian Orchard. There are several other bouts on the card.

A squad of more than 50 candi- dates answered the call of the coach for practice sessions recently and from the material thaf presented it- self, it is hoped to have a better than average team. A number of the veterans from last year's club have turned out again this year and they form a strong nucleus for a dangerous and highly-powered combination. Among these are 8. Prszbrys, E. Kozlowski, G. Gelorimino, 8. Retano, A. McKen. drick, T. Cillizza and W. Rojenski. Among the new candidates there ap- pears to be some very promising material. Just prior to the game this after. noon, election for a captain for the coming year will be held. The schedule of the team for the scason is as follows: 3 May 1, Lewis High at Southington. May 8, Farmington High at New Britain. May 10, Lewis High at New Brit- ain. May 15, Farmington. May 17, Simsbury High at Sims. bury. May 22, Collinsville High at New Britain.
