COLLEGE TEANS " FACE BIG GAMES Ranks of Leaders in Baseball Have Boen Lelt Yery Thin New York, May 6 M—The season for the traditionally important wames of the eastern college base- ball season is getting under way, and many of the teams have little more «thaw victory over their rivals of tra- dition to look forward to. The mor- tality among the big colieges this “‘spring has been surprisingly large, leaving the ranks of the leaders very thin. Only Lafayette, among the col- leges which figure both ameng the eastern leaders and in the games of hoary tradition, is underfeated. The members of the old “Rig Three" have several blots apiece on their escutcheons while even the unat- tached leaders have faced defeat. Princeton has slumped far down on the list long before the series with Yale is due to start, losing two more games to comparatively unim- portant opponents last week. Yale also has gone down several times while Harvard has a pair of defeats on its record. Dartmouth and Cor- nell both have taken it on the chin more than once, although the Green remains among the. leaders, duc principally to Hollstrom's pitching. Pennsylvania was in a fair way to uphold the honor of the older col- leges until Saturday when Yale end- ed its winning streak at 11 games with a 4 to 1 victory. The Elis had been finally counted out when they were shut out by New York univer- sity and Holy Cross on successive days last week. Penn State and S8yracuse have staged their annual pair of battles already without much honor to either. Forgetting several previous defeats they battled to one victory cach Friday and Saturday, State tak- ing the first game, 7 to 3, and Syra- cuse the second, 3 to 0. Lafayette also got into the crucial series stage Saturday by taking a close duel from its oldest rival, Le- high, by a 2 to 0 count.

Another meeting between members of the quadrangle cup, league, which' has heen absorbed by the. still informal intercollegiate Jleague, the Penn-Columia game, was yashed out ‘Wednesday. The other . rivalries of tradition have not yet started the 1929 sea- son unless the annual meetings of Holy Cross with various leading col- leges can be included in this list. The Crusaders took a -surprising defeat from Princeton some time ago in the first of these but came back last week with what was perhaps the best game of the season, a 1 to 0 triumph over Yale in which Frank Nekola gave but one hit. League teams will play four games this week, two of which will involve the quadrangle cup. Climacteric contests, however, still are some weeks away on most schedules. Princeton will invade Baker Field on Wednesday to meet Columbia, and will return to the Jungle to entertain Cornell on Saturday in the second game of that series. Pennsylvania and Columbia will visit Hanover on Friday and Saturday, capping Dart- mouth's spring week athletic pro- gram. - The informal standing of the league teams is: w. .4 Pet. .880 667 500 333 000 000 Dartmouth Pennsylvania Princeton Yale ... Columbia Cornell Priest Dies After Achieving Life Desire Rome, May 6 (UP)—Only a few hours after he had fulfilled his life's ambition of officiating at a mass in St. Peter's athedral, the Rev. Dan- iel J. Hefferlan, of Billerica, Mass., collapsed and died here yesterday. Father Hefferlan died, apparently, from heart disease, while being taken to a hospittal.* The Massachusetts priest was a member of Cardinal O'Connell's pil- grimage to Rome and had officiated at mass in St. Peter's yesterday morning. He had returned for the evening vespers several hours later when he was stricken suddenly. Funeral arrangements have not been announced. Thousands Die in Persian Earthquakes Teheran, Persia, May 6 (®—Two thousand dead were reported today in unofticial telegraph advices of three days .continuing earthquakes from the Khorasan district of Northeast Persia. The telegrams said several villages were literally destroyed and that 700 buildings were demolished in the cities of Shirwan and Bujnurd, near the Turkestan border. The tremors were said to have caused “three days of terror.” Four violent earthquakes were reported from Askhabad, Russian Turkestan, last Friday, with heavy deathw toll reported in Persian vil- lages along the international line. Eleven were Killed and 40 injured in the Turkestan cities. The Turkestan government rushed medical aid to the Persian victims. .

NEW BRITATN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, MAY 6, THREE REGATTAS NOW ON PROGRAN Saturday to See Three Important Rowing Events Run 0ff New York, May ¢ M—Two trian- gular regattas will grow this week- end where one was all that had been expected by intercollegiate rowing fans. The Childs cup regatta on Lake Carnegie with Columbia, Princeton and Pennsylvania as contestants, is to ' receive unexpected opposition from Harvard, Cornell and Massa- chusetts Institute.of Technology who will battle it out on the Charles river. A dual meeting between Syra- cuse and Navy completes the pro- gram for Saturday. Columbia’s Lions undoubtedly will reign overwhelming favorites to cap- ture the varsity and perhaps all other races on the Childs cup pro- gram at Princeton. In makwg a clean sweep in the Blackwell cup races at eDerby last Saturday, the Lions took the measure not only of Penn in four races but of Yale as well, Unless Rusty Callow can make some needed adjustments, Penn seems slated to trail both Columbia and Princeton on Lake Carnegie, | especially in the varsity. The Penn first-string eight was some five | lengths back of Columbia when the Lions set a new course record to heat | Yale on the Housatonic. Princeton, in its only start of the season, con- jquered a good Massachusetts Tech [varsity by a length and seems to have enough power to give Colum- |bia a fight of it. | A high wind can be held rospon- sible for making the Harvard-Cor- nell-M. I. T. regatta possible. Harv. |ard was to meet M. I. T. last Satur- | day but the wind forced a postpone- | ment until this Raturday when Harv- |ard already was booked to meet | Cornell. Arrangements then were |made to make the Cornell- races three-cornered affairs with M. L. T. an added starter. The Harvard- M. L T. freshman and 150-pound races will be rowed earlier in the week.

BUSY WEEK AHEAD FOR CONGRESSMEN House Tarill Revision Washington, May 6.—P—Con- gress ‘today entered onc of the busiest periods of the special scs- sion, The senate approached a vote on the debenture section of the farm relief bill, and later prqpably on the bill itself, while the house was ready to receive tomorrow the tariff revi- sion measure for which it has been waiting, thus bringing the two major gram before congress at the same time. : The devision in the senate over the debenture proposal, which Presi- dent Hoover opposes, is 8o close that from one group not balanced by simi- lar absences from the other, may decide the issue, or put it up to Vice President Curtis to break a tie. The vote, expected Wednesday, is looked forward to by some observers as a test of administration strength in the senate, Introduction of the tariff bill to- morrow will place before the house membership and the public for the first time the specific proposals for changes in the scven-year-old Ford- ner-McCumber act as worked and study by the republican mva- jority of the ways and means com- mittee.
