The margin of the Mackmen is tremendous, that of Pirates satisfactory to Buccaneer bopsters. And the standing of the clubs no longer can be scoffed at as mreaningless. ¥he most hopeful expression wiich now may be made of clubs d6wn in the running is that any po- teptial contender owning a percent- age of .500 can poasibly rally sharp- ly"enough to win in the stretch, this stitement just does include the Gilants, the Yankees and the Tigers. &The Athletics seized the oppor- tumity presented in the Decoration Dify double header to increase their margin over the Yankees to seven and one-half games. Bob Grove and ol Jack Quinn performed in front Boston spectators, leading the to victory by scores of 9 to 2 amd 9 to 3 as the Senators trimmed % Yankees twice. Washington «.sed Herb Pennock from the box 10w take the opener by 8 to 5 and harled a ninth round rally at Henry Jdhnson, Wicy Moore and Tom Zach- ary to ease out ahead by 4 to 3 in the nightcap. Three runs were scored in the gala finish. Dn the western front pitchers were | being manhandled by the Browns artd Tigers, who divided their double to the profit of Connie Mack. Detroit took the morninz game by 1# to 6, but the St. Louis contend- ery came back in the afternoon to | win by 13 to 9. This division of the opeils enabled the Macks to increase their lead over both. The leaders . mdw top the Browniecs by four games and the Tigers by seven and one- half. he remaining action in the west- erp half of the Barnard circuit saw Cleveland and Chicago swap vic- toties, the Indians winning the first game by 6 to 5 and the White Sox the second by 3 to 2. Willies Hudlin | and Red Faber were the successeful pitchers. The Pirates retained the National league lead by turning back the Cubs, ¢ to 0, in the afternoon after | the Bruins had romped off with the eopener, 5 to 1. Remy Kremer was | Rote quite equal to matching arms - with the, veteran Artie Nehf in the morning, but Burleigh Grimes had a wide ‘margin over Charlie Root in the afterndon, winning his ninth successive victory. The lead of the Pirates is only in percentage points, as the Cardinals entered into a virtual tie for the top by defeating the Reds, 5 to 1 and 8§ te 2, in an afternoon bargain. Old Alex outpitched Red Lucas in (he’ first game and the second was a case | of too much Haines. Th. Nationul league champions remained to the rear of the Corsairs only because of Raving played more games and, con- sequently, of having lost more than | the Forbes fleld defenders. John J. McGraw won his first; double victory of the season when the Giants rallied to defeat the Robins by 8 to 7 in the first game and slammed the ball all over the fot to take the second, 15 to 6. The first wis a see-saw thriller won with two runs in the ninth. It met with th: vociferous approval of 55.000 fans, the largest baseball assemblage | ever accommodated at the Polo Chicago Hudlin and Myatt; Lyens and Autry. Taves Fonseca, Aver J.

The only fault that can be found with this lpur!‘ is the admittedly weak opposition againet which it was made. The Braves turned on the Phillics, 4§ te 7, in the morning clash at Baker Bowl, but the home team resumed its spell in the afternoon to win by | 11 to 5.

The visitors lost little time in get- ting a lead and by the end of the third inning were ahead 12 to 0. The runs made in the first frames resulted from many different causes. The pitching of Zembko, who in- jured his arm early in the game, did | not baffle the visitors and they found him for five hits which, coupled with some peor fielding and two bases on balls, gave the visi- tors six runs before a man had heen retired in the second inning. Then Salak was sent to the mound to do relief duty. Salak, who was in proper form due to pitching for the Stanley Works in the Industrial league ‘Tueaday night, was a =light improve- ment but the visitors kept at him until he was relieved in the sixth by Bill Chant. It was not until Chant went to the meund that the home team showed its real form. He imme- diately quieted the Silver City team's bats with his slow curves and his mates began to afford him fine sup- port. It was too late however, as| During the four innings Chant worked he was touched for but four hits all of these coming in the ninth when he began to let down and al- lowed the visitors to hit in order to get them out. It was the first game in which he had worked this season and he did not want to in- jure his arm for a lost cause. The contest was marked frem the beginning by hard hitting. The visitors supplied the long clouts during the early part of the game and the home tcam took up the task during the closing innings. The Holy Cross outfit was con- siderably handicapped by the ab- sence of several of their best play- ers who'were out of the city over the holiday. Sunday afternoon the local team will be host to the strong Suffield town team. At this time Manager John Cabay expects to have his entire team on the field. The summary: J.

In a slow and uninteresting game that was devoid of action frem be- ginning to end, the Corbin Red Sox nine scored an easy 6 to 1 victory over the Falcon team at 8t. Mary's field yegterday afternoen in the first intra-city battle of the season. The majority of the players oen both ag- gregations acted sluggish, due to the torrid sun that blazed on the field throughout the game. The Falcons, however, appeared washed out and the Corbin team had little trouble in taking the verdict. The Red Sox played great ball in the pinches. “Lefty” Buckland was on the mound for the Tobin men and was in great form. He allowed the Fal- con batters but four hits and out. side of the first and seventh in. nings was never in real danger. The Hartford twirler was opposed by the Falcon ace, Longmore. Longmore, however, appeared to be away off form and the Corbin batters found his nts often, especially with men on the hags. The Red Sox finally drove him from the box in the seventh and he was succeeded by ‘Lefty” Huber. This is the first time in two years that Longmore failed to finish a game he started for the Falcons. Despite the heat, the Corbin team played great ball in the field and accorded Buckland wonderful sup- port. The infleld work of the Red Sox left nothing to be desired, two fast double plays being executed. Bucheri, former Falcon, took care of shert for the Tobin men and put up a great game. He accepted eight out of nine chances. ‘“Buggy” Fitz- patrick and Fields also played good defensive games. “Lefty” Huber and “Chucky” Wo- jack were the best bets for the Fal- cons, playing strong games. Noonan was a tower of strength behind the bat and his constant chatter gave the Falcons whatever pep they showed. He also drove in the lone Falcon tally. Batting honors for the day went to “Billy” Yankaskas. Coming to bat twice with two men on, Yankas- kas came through with hits to drive in four rumns. Ficlds and Bergeron also hit hard. The four Falcon hits were divided between four men. Fitzpatrick opened the game by working Longmore for a pass. Preisser sacrificed him to second. Fields was an easy out but Bergeron, the new Corbin star, connected for a lusty triple. In their half of the inning. the Falcons placed twe men on the sacks but were unable to score. Two more Corbin runs crossed the plate in the third. With two out, Bergeron singled and4 Blanchard reached first on Walicki's error. Yankaskas then walloped a double into left, scoring both runners. The Falcons again placed two runners on the bases in this inning but a fast double play killed all possible scoring chances. Although the Red Sox continued to threaten to score repeatedly, they did not dent the platter again until the seventh. Preisser walked. Flelds singled. Bergeron walked. Preisser scored on Blanchard's sac- rifice fly. YaYnkaskas singled, Bergeron and Fields scoring.

A few of the most enthusiastic atayed on to play in the flag tournament held in the afternéon. The morning round ended with a double tie for first place and a triple tie for second. Vgl Hart, 8tan Hart, Jim Chamberlain an@ Al Knowles shet 79-21.58 to tie fer first prize with the foursome composed of Judge Kirkham, Frank Shield, Dana Vibberts and George Macauley who made 75-17-58. This outfit scored three birdies, two of which were s and an eagle 2 when Frank Shield holed out his approach on the 16th. Becond place ties were settled by draw and it was won with a 60 by a quartet in which Gail Porter, A. B. Porter, Bob Parsons and Noah Lucas played. “Keck" Parker, Curt Booth, Mac Hayden and Clff Park- er made up a foursome that scored 73-13-60. The other tie for second place was made by Clarence and Dave Manning. Earl Higbee and Clarence Barnes who made a low gross of 72. The day was noteworthy by the coming to the fore of one of the younger players who gives promise of rounding into form as one of the niftiest golfers in the clu¥. Last fall in the second round of the club championship, Clift Parker carried Bill 8weeney well along on the sec- ond nine before the former title holder disposed of his yoeung op- ponent. With a handicap of 14, Park. er has been playing well this spring and yesterday he blossomed into full bloom. In the morning' round he shot a 78 to bring his crowd into a tie for secend place and just to demonstrate that it was not just a lucky round he and Curt Booth blithely challeng- cd the cagey veterans, Bill Booth and Carl Baldwin to a match. Chff did not quite come up to his morn- ing round but his 80 placed him, with his handicap, in the cup of the 19th hole and won for him the flag tournament, far ahead of his ncarest competitor. Immediately the tournament com- mittee held a meeting and paid Parker the honor of lopping off three strokes from his handicap. While they were at it they did some more adjusting so that the play for the President’'s Cup will be on an equi- table basis. The qualifying round for that event can be played next Bat. urday or Sunday and the first round must be played off before next Fri- day. Muller's Mozart | The One Cigar, Still Made at Home.

Coach Depot's boys will be out to score a victery, the first on a Waterbury fleld since Coach Depot took charge. At the present time there is ne way of knowing definitely or official- iy whether or not an athlete has broken a school record. In the near future Coach Depot intends to have his managers look through the news- paper files as far back as the time when the late Attorney William F. Delaney took charge of the team. He will then set up a system which will make its possible t3 know whether or not recent accomplish. ments were better than those of oth. er days. The coach believes that credit should be given where it is due. The New Britain high school en- joyed two successful seasons under the captaincy of the twe . Delaney brothers, Frank and Eddie, and there were several good athletes on the team in those days. Previous to that the late Bill Burns and others enjoyed unusual success. W)ether the Delaneys’ marks in the 100 yprd dash are better than those of “Doc” Bray of recent years or of Sidney Lines in a question. It a question. It was said that Lines established a record mark in the broad jump but it is a question of whether he bettered the mark of Armand Landino. The 100 yard dash also has Bob Peplaw, who was a powerful runner in school. If the team wins against Crosby high school tomorrow it will be con- sidered the best squad in the last decade. STEINMAN WINS TITLE Local Boy Assured a Trip to Culver Indiana to Play in National Doys' Tennis Tourney. Fred Steinman, son of Charles Steinman of 718 Arch street, has been assured of a trip to Culver, In- diana, through his victory in the Roys' doubles tennis championship at the Hartford Golf cluh yesterday. His partner in the doubles is the only obstacle in his path towards the singles title which will be decided Sunday morning at 10:30 o’clock. The tournament held at Hartford, was for boys up 16 15 years of age from the entire state. The winners are always sent to the National Boys’ tournament held at the Culver Military Academy with entries from all over the United States. Steinman won his first match after a long struggle from H. Sloan of Hartford by scores of 11-9, 1-6 and 6-3. He then defeated W. T. Hooper. son of Rev. Mr. Hooper of West Hartford, 6-3 and 6-2. Miles had an casy time in winning his way to the finals as he and Steinman outclassed the rest of the field. In the doubles, only three teams were entered. Steinman and Miles won from P.

ATHLETES GATHER FOR ANNUAL NEET Intercollegiate Track and Field Games to Start Today Philadelphia, May 31 (P—Coll athletes representing 32 institutiol from Maine to California were here today for the atart of competition in the 53rd annual meeting of the In- tercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes of America. ‘The original entry list numbered 667 individuals, but acratches have reduced the field to about ¢00. Stan- ford University, winner for the last two years, was a heavy faverite to retain its crown. Last year at Cam- bridge Coach Templeton's Cardinals scored 43 points to eutstrip the field and experts predicted they would do even better this year. The meet, at Franklin Field, will be spread over two afternoons with the qualifying trials in eleven events starting at 1 o'clock today. Those making the grade to the semi-finals in the dashes and the hurdles an4 to the finals in the ¢40-yard and §$80- yard runs, shot put, discus throw, javelin throw and bread jump, will ccmpete in the championship events temorrow along with the one and two mile runners, high jumpers and pole vaulters, who were not required to enter the qualifying tests. Track and field experts expect at least four intercollegiate records to fall during the two-day competition. Phil Edwards, of New York univer- sity, in the 880.yara run; Eric Krenz, Stanferd, and John Anderson, Cornell, in the discus throw; Harlow Rothert, Stanferd, in the shet put, and any of the several stars in the javelin throw—Jess Mortensen, Southern California; Emory Curtice and Ken Churchill, University of California ,and Dave Myers, New York university—were accorded ex- cellent chances to shatter the pres- ent marks. Keen contests were looked for amoeng Pennsylvania, Yale, last year's runner-up; New York univer- sity, Southern California, Dart- mouth, Harvard and Cornell, in the battle for second place. Harvard athletes brought net only ulting poles -collegial track and field championships todsy and tomerrow, but Greek, Latin, and other classroom books also were in- cluded in their equipment. Final examinations are bellg held at Harvard and it was necessary for the track squad te receive special diepensation frem university officials to compete in the intercollegiates. The condition imposed on mem- bers of the team was that they take their final examinatiens in Philadel- phia Friday and Saturdsy mornings. They are quartered at a hotel, where a large suite has been equipped with special class room facilities, includ- ing indivdual desks for éach man. R. W.
