Speaking of Sports XKid Reney of this city, ene of the members of the Cresoent A. C., won Rig fourth fight last night ‘when he defeated Vincent Dever of Bridge- Jort in a tournament. I the pre- liminaries- he defeated Joe Nagy of Fairfield,, John Viols of Worceater, and Joe Marasach of Bridgeport. — All of the Jocal baseball teams are swinging into action tomorrow. The Faleons meet the Highwood Cubs of New Haven. The Holy Crom team meets the Polish Americans of Suf- fleld. The Corbin Red Box go to Willimantic to play the All Stars there. Kensington entertains West- ville. The Burritts go to Thompson- will The Bacred Heart crew plays the Athletica of East Hartford. The Cardinals and the Holy Cross teams meet this afternoon in a practice game. The Shuttie Meadow course is re- perted to be in perfect condition for low scoring. Manning's 69 and Parker's 78 were added to yester- day by Howard Humphrey, who played a round in 39-3§-77. s Mr. Humphrey was out tuning up for the President's Cup qualifying round, which will be played off this afternoen and Sunday. Last season, Humphrey, as president of the club, denated the cup. He drew Harold Judd en the first round and Judd wen out in the finals. ‘Word has been received here that ‘Warren Slater, former physical di- rector at the local Y. M. C. A. and now acting in that capacity in Glen- dale, Calif.,, while preparing for a gym exhibition, fell and sustained serious injury to one of his arms. It is said that the bones in his arm were fractured in 15 places. Ten years ago, Slater was one of the ranking basketball players in this eity. He will be well remembered hy those who, as kids, used to live in Landers playground on Winter street. Slater was the director there| and was considered one of the best ever to have carge of a playground. TIntense interest is being shown by the boxing fraternity in the coming atate featherweight title bout be- tweéen Eddie Lord of Waterbury and Bat Battalino of Hartford. The boxer against a ball of fire would be an apt way to express the attitude of the two principals. Lord, it is expected, will give Battaline the best bout he has ever had and there are plenty whe figure that Eddie will win. Battalino will win if he gets his sock in. Lord has never been knocked off his feet in a bout and' Battalino will have a hard time trying to break this precedent. There are plenty of fans who figure that the Waterbury Frenchman can lick the former national amateur featherweight champien.

Stanford emerged at the top of the qualifying heap yesterday by placing 14 men in eight events anl removed all doubt of the remarkable scoring power of the sjuad from Palo Alto, coached by Robert L. (Dink) Templeton. The Cardinals in spite of an unexpected threat frem Penn, and a show of strength by Southern California, Yale and New Yook university among others, hal every reason to figure on taking th2 I C. A. A. A. championship tropny back west for the third year in a row, The champion Cardinals exhibited quality as well as quaatity. Harlow Rothert broke the only meet record of the opening day when he heaved the 16 pound shot fifty feet § inchos bettering the former mark of his teammate, Eric Krenz, by two inches. Leo Kirby, Stanford, topped ths field in the javelin with a toss of 204 feet, seven inches. Dyer, rangy sophomore sprinter who qualified for both dashes, shared with Karl Wildermuth, of Georgetown, the best time for the furlong, 21 8-10 seconds; while Johnny Morrison. Cardinal quarter-miler, reeled off his heat handily in 49 seconds. Although it was known his con- dition was doubtful the elimination of Charley Borah, of Southern Cali- fornia in the 220 yard dash, was a shock. This was Borah's last chance to gain I. C. A. A. A. A. honors but an injury jinx has pursued him since his sophomore year, when he won both sprints and set the present meet record of 20 9-10 seconds for the furlong. Last year injuries kept Borah qut of the I. C. A. A. A. A. competition entirely, although he 1a- ter made the Olympic team. Th. spring he was going great guns in the west, three times equalling the world's record of 9 3-5 for the 100" until he again broke down. With Borah out of the lists. the spring faverites were Jimmy Datey of Holy Cross and “Pete” Bowen, Pittsburgh flash, in the “100.” with Wildermuth, Dyer and Charley Engle of Yale, as principals in the *'200.” Ealey, who hopes to follow the footsteps of his teammate, Jim- my Quinn, 1928 winner. turned in the fastest trial time, 9 8-10 sec. onds, while Bowen was clocked in 9 9-10. < Bowen, owe of the chief eastern hopes for track honors, also starrod in the quarter-mile, reeling off the fastest qualifying time, 48 4-10 =3 he showed the way to Yale's fav- orite, Engle. The Pittsburgh filer is coached by a former quarter-mile champion, Frank Shea, and was the marked man in today's 440 final. Spectacular east-west duels were expected in the hurdles, with Ross Nichols of Stanford, the defending 120-yard champion. Facing his most serious threat in John Collier, of Brown, Collier ripped off the best trial time, 14 8-10, over the high CITY LEAGUE MANAGERS | ADOPT YEAR'S SCHEDULE . < | Rules are Drafted at Meeting in Herald Office—Final Session to Be Held Next Week—Names of Eligible | Players Must Be Handed In Then—Play Will Start on Saturday, June 5—Six Teams-are Entered and Ready to Go—All Games Must Go at Least Seven | Innings.

CHANGE IN MANAGEMENT Emil Fuchs is Reported to Have Of- Cardinals, al ( cuip sHors ) BY JIGGER The movement on foot in other realms of life for bigger and better things has invaded the world of golf. A larger ball is in the offing. Dur- ing the season of 1931 it will make its appearance as the official ball sanctioned by the United States Goli association. It is to be of larger size and light- ler in weight. The weight of the |ball will cut the average length of | drives, which is a prospect bemoan- ed by the ordinary player who now rates a two hundred tee shot as un achievement with the present lively ball. But it is predicted that this handicap will be offset by better lics through the fairway, obtained by the use of the new ball. Veteran players recall the radical | change in golf, brought about twene | ty-five years ago, when the forerun- | [ner of the modern ball was intro- | duced to take the place of the old | | gutta-purcha golf ball. The fixt |one we saw was the “Haskell” | | played with by a Mr. Heath, New York publisher, when we were cad- dying for him over the old Wash- | | ington, Conn., links. | { In those days nine hole courses | predominated. the yardage as much | | shorter than at present and only na- | tural hazards penalized shots off the line. Colonecl Bogy ruled the courses | instead of present Old Man Par and | he was exacting in his demands upon the players’ skill. Flocks ef | sheep were pastured on the links to | and supplement the | | | 1t took hrawn to spank out a 225 | | yard drive with the gutta in use but |less skill to_handle it on short ap- | proaches and putts. Some good rec- | | ords were made with it and the.dub | | scored about the same as he does [today with a faster ball. It would | | be interesting to see Jones or Ha- |gen play over a championship | course with one of the old balls. Vat ¥lood made his mark in the golfing world playing with the guttx ball. He was one of America’s longest drivers with it. Fven today {there lingers in his swing a relic |of the form employed by the ol [time powerful hitters—a certain dip of the shoulders which was the trick |of sending the ball shooting far |down the fairway. He is not enthusiastic ahout the | forthcoming change in halls. “Who.” | he asked, “is driving too long a| ball?" We could not name a sing'e | golfer of our acquaintance who was {thus afflicted. “The average golf=r gets ninety per cent of his kick out of the few good drives he makes on | each round. Take away from him | the chance of now and then getting championship. Francis Stevens, Jr., of Lo geles, entered the tournament un- sung and unheralded, but remained to brush aside favored opponents in three of his four matches. Four weeks ago he broached the subject of marriage to his father, and was informed that consent dependcd on the result of an 18-hole match. He not only defeated the senior member of the Stevens family, but did such a thorough job of it that a seat on the exchange was added to the matri- menial detail of the agreement. Jack Neville, four times winner of the state crown. was the other final.

OLE OA E COPYRIGHT 1029 BY MEA SERVICE WG By Verne Wickham There's the fussy fellow who is olways cleaning the ball. He care ries his own patcnted ball-washer layout’ and no matter where it is he cleans the mud off when he pleases. The rule states plainly “cleaning the ball when in play entails a pen- alty of disqualification in stroke competition and loss of the hole in match play, except under speciul rules by local committces in charge.' This covers play on the green. It you're playing the game according to the book, you can't clean the mud from a ball even on the greei. \Meost tournament committees an- neunce that the ball may be cleaned when reaching the green but, if the special ruling is not announced, the ball can be cleaned only on each tee. In other words, you can remove nothing from the ball from the time you hit your tee shet until the vall drope into the bottom of the cup. If agball split, or in any ether manner becemes unfit for play be- tween tee and green. it may be re- placed with your opponent or part- ner's permission. Mud adhering te a ball shall not be considered cause for making it unfit in play. Another practice frowned upon by most good gelferssds the habit of using one ball off the tee und through the fairway and another on the green. You've scen them conie up to the green. whip out a new ball from their pocket, pick up the o1 one and drop the new ball onto 'he green—and usually nearer the hele. Just remember that it is against all rules of golf te ever teuch the ball with anything but the club frem the time yon tee it up until yeu take it out of the cup. Play ac- cording to the rules! s LOOKING FOR GAMES The Washington Blues baseball team is looking for games with any team in the city under 16 years of age.
