Speaklhg of Sports Although the Stanley Rule & Level team hasi't won a game in the In. dustrial league yet, the team is re. garded as one of the prettiest flald. ing outfits in the entire league. Last week during one of the games the crew played, one of the nicest and best plays seen this year was exe- cuted. There were runners on first and third with one out. Darsy Corrasso ‘was catching, Billy Darrow was play- ing shortstop and Zapatka was on second. On the first pitch, the man on first started to second. Zapatka co «red the bag, Darrow came in foi short throw and Jacobson covered the third sack. The throw was per- fect. The runner on third didn't dare move for fear Darrow would inter- cept the throw and toss him out at home, The result was that the throw went to second, catching the runner there and making the second | - out of the game. Darby Corrasso is becoming a ter- ror to runners on the base paths. He is throwing like a bullet and only once in & great while do his throws g0 off at all. He picks unwary run- ners off the bags and this has caused them all to play it sate when Darby s behind the bat. Jimmy Clinton is coaching the Stanley Rule team and as he watch- ed his crew go down to defeat at the hands of the American Paper Géods team Thursday night, he re- marked that his crew had everything but it couldn’t seem to win. With Landers leading the league following the team’s sensational vic- tory over P. & F. Corbin, the battle will go merrily on to the end. Two games will be played next Tuesday night and one will be played on Thursday. ‘The feature me next Tuesday night will bring together Stanley Works and P. & F. Corbin. Both teams are in second place and both will be battling to retain the posi- tion solely and alone. Fatnirs and Landers will clash next Thursday night and the Uni- versals will have to keep at the top of thelr form in order to stay at the top of the heap in the standing. Plenty of fight is expected this afternocon at Walnut Hill park when the Burritts clash with the Holy Cross agglegation. One of the largest créwds of the season will be out to witness the battle and there will be plenty of fight among the backers of the teams, if all the stories arising from the two camps are true. Babe Ruth needs = couple of weeks Off every so often, it scems, because his work of yesterday in the second game appeared to make him like a revivified person. Two home runs added to his list of 10 and starts him off after the leaders again. Large numbers of local f: are going down to see the teams battle today and tomorrow. Many others were disappointed in their attempts to get tickéts. The following clipping has been sent to us about Mickey Erno, for- mer Jocal boy, who now sports the title of fleaweight champion of the world: “The liveliest fight on the card was the eight round tiff in which Mickey Erno, Pacific coast ‘“flea- welght,” battered his way to a six round margin over Wildcat Lacey of Dallas, Texas. The latter had taken the place of Phil Roberts, of Detroit, who was kept from the ring by & severe mouth cut. “These little chaps fought it out every inch of the way until the sixth, when Lacey began to tire under ter- rific body pynches from Erno, who threw gloves more like the middle- weight than a 112 pounder. Until then, Lacey had fought well, often landing joiting lefts and rights to the head. He withered under the body punches of Hrno, however, and back-pedalled and counter-punched te the finish. Erne, like Bernard, made such a big hit with fans that he would be welcome again. FIGHTS LAST NIGHT By _the Asssciated Prese.

THRILLING COMPETITION Semi-Finals of the Intercollegiate Polo Championships to See Some SUft Playing. Philadelphia, June 22 (M—8emi- finals of the intercollegiate polo championships of the United States at the Philadelphia Country clnd today promised thrilling competi- tion. Harvard and Princeton, the op- ponents, were well-mounted and ap- peared evenly matched. Members of both teams are daring riders and splendid mallet wielders. The winner ‘will meet Yale in the final round next Sataurday. In the opening contests. Last week Yale defeated Pennsylvania Military sradame whila Prinsoton eliminat- o s RS ~litary academy ( New York, June 22 UB—Joe Turn- esa, a tall young Italian-Americau professional, graduated from the caddy ranks of Westchester county, New York, will be a threat in the open golf championship compstitnon i his irons answer his bidding. As & ber of the Ryder cup team on its recent invasion of Eur- ope, Turnesa crossed the experts and surprised some of his more highly favored team mates by stepping out to win all his matches in the thou- sand guineas tournament of the Yorkshire Evening News at Leeds. Turnesa's victory in the final over the steady Herbert Jolly, British pro, was one of the most sensation- al incidents of the year in British golf. With his opponent dormie two, Joe kept fighting and squared the match at the 36th hole. He woi the 37th and the tournament with & sensational birdie three by holing his chip zhot from off the green. Jolly summed up his reaction when he congratulated his success- ful rival from overse by saying, “It's no disgrace to lose at an extra hole when your opponent holes his tee shot.” Joe had one great chance to win the open championship of the Unit. ed States. He was runner up to Bobby Jones at Scioto in 1926, his score of 294 being jist one stroke more than the winner needed for the 72 holes, ‘After great rounds of 71- TWO CREWS ARE FAVORED T0 WIN Columbia and California Appear 88 Outstanding in Regatia Pdughkeepsie, N. Y., June 22 (#— Columbia and California are the favorites in a record entry list of nine crews to win the varsity race in the intercollegiate regatta on the Hudson Monday evening. The situation this year is like that of last year with California and Co- lumbia favored over the fleld. Last year, the Golden Bears from the Pacific coast swept down the course stroked by the mighty Pete Donlon, to nose out Columbia and set a rec- ord of 18:35 4-5 for four miles, low- ering the mark of 18:53 1-5 set by u mighty Cornell crew in 1901. 8o furious was the pace of the Golden Bears that it carried both Colum- bia and Washington to the finish line under the former record. Columblia, stroked by Eric Lambart, trailed the Californians by only three seconds. California went on from that triumph to greater ones at the Olympic games in Holland where it won world rowing honors for the United States. The Golden Bears return to the Hudson river this year with practi- cally the same crew as last summer. Columbia, also with the same nu- cleus, is declared to be a better crew than last year or in 1927 when it captured varsity honors. A third name enters the reckoning this year, a name famous on this course—Cornell, regarded as the “dark horse” of the varsity race. Cornell has not put out a winning varsity crew from that shabby boat- house down near the finish of the course since June 28, 1915. Prior to that year, Cornell had registered 12 victories in 20 regattas of the assoctation. One man made most of that suc- cess, the great Charles (Pop) Court- ney, Cornell's famous rowing coach. After his death in 1920, the Itha- cans’ fortuncs faded, but this year finds Cornell’ men full of hope. Coach Jim Wray has produced a crew whose early season record was excelled only by these of Columbia and Yale in the east. But with ninc crews on the Hud- son almost anything can happen once the race is on and virtually cvery one of them is potentially dangerous. = There {8 Washington's giants; Navy, which is believed to have caught finally some of the magic touch of Navy crews of old; Wisconsin and its new coach, Mike Murphy of Yale fame; M. 1. T, a newecemer ot the local course; a physically strong Syracuse crew; and Fennsylvania with its late season show of strength, In the race for freshman honors, to be rowed over a two mile course at 5:15 o'clock, eastern daylight time, California, Correll and Byra- cuse are favored over Columbia, Navy, M. I. T, and Pennsylvania. In the three mile junior varsity event at 6:15 o'clock, Columbia and ‘Washington are favored o Byra- cuse, Cornell, Pennsylvania and the Navy. The varsity race will start at 7:15. crew of THIRTY-SIX GRADUATE Thirty-six athletes who won let. | ters in one or more varsity spor's were among those graduated hy Northwestern university this year. SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1929, UOE TURNESA 74-72, the White Plains pro took 77 on his last round and saw the cham- pionship slip away from him when Jones covered the final 18 holes in 18, making two great shots at the last hole. In the 1928 open, Joe was tied for sixth with a score of 299. He play- ¢d three rounds in 74 strokes each.

JWNY FOKK IS ST LEADING Athletics' First Baseman Tops American League Batters Chicago, June 22 (P — Jimmy Foxx, the Athletics’ first baseman, slipped out of the .400 batting aver- age class during the ninth week of the American league campaign. but remained at the top of regular workmen with a mark of .396, un- offcial averages revealed today. Foxx was topped by big Robert Fothergill of Detroit, who became the league's only .400 batsmen, hy increasing his average 22 points to 408 during the week. Fothergill. however, had been to bat less than half as many times as the Phila- delphia jack of all trades.

Ten entries were listed, but eight or possibly nine horses were ex- pected at the barrier at post time. One of the favorites was African, R. T. Wilson's Olambala colt, which ran second to Blue Larkspur in the Belmont. African finished third to Windy City and Naishapur in the American Derby, easily defeating Clyde Van Dusen, winner of | Kentucky Derby. Other thoroughbreds to face the issue today were Plumbago, the Choctaw, Lord Braedelbane, Buddy | Basil, Ben Machree, Boris, FEssare |and Paraphrase or Amsterdam. The ast two are the H. P. Headley en- try, Paraphrase to run in case of rain, and Amsterdam if the track remains fast. Essare was considered a doubtful starter, On the basis of eight starters the |race will have a value of about $30. /860 and in the event Clyde Van Du- [svn is returned the winner, the La- (tonia jock club will increase the added money from $25,000 to $39.- 000. The additional $5,000 is a-spe- cial purse given if the victor also has won the Kentucky Derby. Van Dusen is carrying top weight of 126 pounds.
