Speaking of Sports Rain haited the Falcon-New Lon« don Sub-Base game yesterday Wfter- noon in the feurth inning. TMs vis- itors were Joading 3 to 0 at the time, Both runs were acored in the third inning. With two men on base, “Starhesd” Budnick developed a bad streak at second and successive errers. Beth misplays let in a run. “Lefty’" Haber was on the mound for the lecals and pitched good bail altheugh he was inclined to be wild. He allowed three hits in feur innings while the oppesing twirler, Wil- loughby, gave the Falcons two. Although trailing up until the storm breke, the Falcons appeared hetter than their oppenents. They were hitting the ball hard and were Jjust beginning te solve the curves of Willoughby when the battle end- «d. “Mickey” Noonan displayed his old time atuff. He battered.out a clean hit, blocked off a run at home plate in big league style and nipped a run- ner attempting te 1 third. Every once in & while, some can- didate for the “meanest man in the world” appears.

BY VERNE WICCKHAM Don’'t form the aggravating habit of complaining and telling the locker reom abeut the putts which should have drepped but didn’t. Many golfers complain about bad luck on the greens. Stop and figure & minute when you complete the round and you'll prcbably remember us many putts which hopped in at the last second. Day in and day out, the putts will average them- sefves. You'll ind as many of them breaking to the right or left just at the right minute or running up to the edge to hover & minute before drepping as you will that stay out. Take them as they come. Mest of all, keep it to yourself when they den't drop. No one is interested in the putts that don’t drop—it's the ones that drop that count. Don’t be crabbing always about putts which rim the cup.

Routis in Madison Squara Garden last September last year, in a bout with Canzoneri galloped off with the decision and incidentally with the featherweight crown. Their return match, set for Chi- cago's new stadium this Friday night is at catchweights, so Routis will hold on to his title even should he drop the decision or be knocked out. Some of the experts—in fact a mejority of them—think Canzonerl, at 130 pounds, will be too strong for the Frenchman whose only ring ap- pearance since he won the title was a losing one against Heneyboy Fin- negan in a non-titular match. Can- ‘| zonerl has done his recent fighting exclusively as a junior lightweight and there is some doubt whether he plans to shave down to 126 pounds any more. The stadium card has two other attractive bouts. Finnegan meets Armando Santiago of Cuba in one of them and Otto Von Peorat will try his right hand smashes on Jack De Mave's jaw in the other. Billy Wallace, Clevdland slugger meets Louis (Kid) Kaplan, former featherweight champion, in the fea- ture ten rounder of Madison Square Garden’s lightweight card on ¥riday Jack Berg, of England, is paired against Bruce Flowers, New Ro- chelle, N.
