Speaking of Sports == ——— There is nothing that'gives such & feeling of satisfaction as good sportsmanship in these days of questionable contests in all lines of sport. That is why, in the present series between the Sokols and the P. & F. Corbin tegm for the league championship of the city, that the negotiations over a pitcher for the Sokols, are so pleasing. First and foremost among good sports must be counted Manager Joe Jackson of the Corbin team. Second to him must come Brooks, pitcher for the Pirates during the league season. When Manager Jackson was ap- praised of the fact that Partyka was done in with a sore arm and therefore the Sokols were without a good pitcher, he told the Sokols to get any pitcher they could among | *City League | those counted in the ranks. ‘When Brooks was informed of the situation the Sokols were thrown into and was asked if he would pitch, his answer was that he would be very glad to help the team out. Brooks raised no question of what he was going to get out of the series. He had no thought for him- self but unselfishly he offered his services and stated that he would do his best. It is occurrences of this sort that raise the standard of sport im this and every other city. After all, it 1s Mr. John Fan who appreciates the games and as he pays the bills, he would rather see a good game of baseball than listen to a lot of squabbling about this or the other thing. Tomorrow there will be another good game between the Sokols and Corbins and an even larger crowd should he on hand to watch the play. The fans came through ad- mirably in Tuesday night's game and showed clearly that they enjoy the sport. The collector was agree- ably surprised when the receipts were counted. Only one other game in past seasons exceeded this in re- turns. G The Triangle A. C. football team 1s looking for a coach. The man- agement would like to hear from Vic Larson. Anyone wanting take a football eleven under his wing for the coming season should get in touch with Manager Rico D’'Amato at 42 Oak street or tele- phone 1661. South street field.

The first day’s schedule of 31 first round matches will cut the fleld of 95 by about one-third. The luck of the draw against Borotra, favored with Big Bill Tilden to reach the final roun.

If the Athletics | win half their games, Washington would have to win 18 out of its r maining 21 to beat out Philadelphia. | In the National league the Cubs, | with a 4 1-2 game lead over the New | York Giants and St. Louis Cardinals, have 21 games left to play. If the Cubs win 11 and lose 10, the Giants or Cardinals would have to capture 17 out of their remaining 23 games to finish in front of the Cubs. Although mathematically still in the race, the Brooklyn Robins have definitely given up their pennant hopes and are struggling to hold a first division berth. The Robins are 6 games behind the Cubs, and have | only 21 games left to play. It the Cubs won only 10 out of | their 21 games, the Robins would have to win 17 out of their 21 games to finish ahead, provided the Giants and Cardinals dropped out of the running.

CARNERA APPEARS INBOUTS TONIGHT Giant Italian Heavyweight to Megt Three Opponents Hartford, Sept. 5—Primo Carnera who boxes Jack DeMave, Jack Mc- Auliffe, 2nd., and Fred Caldora at the Hurley Stadium tonight, is now heavyweight of the present crop of title contenders. Carnera’s quick kayo of Bertaz- zola at Atlantic City last Saturday night is the prime reason for the | “'about face"” which boxing V\rl!crs\ have been doing this week. Not that his win over Bertazolla but be- great improvement Carnera showed over his. last time out. Ed Sullivan, New York sports writer and the original Carnera man, having boosted Primo as the coming champion the day the big boy set his ample feet on American soil, has this to say of him in the Graphic: “Carnera is the best of the lot. He moves his 266 pounds faster than Sharkey can move and he is a bet- ter boxer. Carnera would chase Sharkey, over the top rope in five rounds.” | Carnera will arrive in Hartford this afternoon. The hour of his ar- al has not been announced as he wants to avoid a crowd. Primo is not enamored of the limelight and the loud cheer. Promoter Ed Hurley has arrang- ed to have Carnera go two rounds against each of the three opponents | —DeMave, McAuliffe and Caldoru, but the Carnera handlers expest | each bout to end before the two rounds have been fought. An undercard, promising a lot af rugged action, has been securcd to support the Carnera event. Al Carter and Al Walker, negro eavyweights, tipping the scales the 200's, meet in the eight round Then there is a special eight which Tony Leto meets Quinn of New York. This is the balance of the card. Roy Powers, Holyoke, vs. Sanborn, Hartford, four round Smith, New York, vs. Red Kinsella, New York, four rounds; Mike Tor- onto, Bridgeport, vs. Joe Howard, Hartford, four rounds; Young Car- nera, Bridgeport, vs. Johnny Di Stephano, East Hampton, four rounds. in Timmy FOR BEST RESULTS USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS | ——eee FRATERNITY BOWLING ALLEYS 144 ARCH ST.

He was informed that Partyka, So- kol hurler, would be unable to twirl Because of a sore arm and immedi- ately he agreed ‘to hurl for the So- kols. The use of Brooks or any other pitcher in the City league is being allowed by Manager Joe Jack- son of the Corbin team. Fans tomorrow will see a strange sight as far as baseball goes in this city when Brooks takes the mound. He will be working for the team which he twice set down during the City league season./ The Sokols lost two games during the year and both were defeats by Brooks. Another great battle is in store for the fans of this city tomorrow teams take the field. The Corbin team walked off with a victory in the first encounter last Tuesday night but, with Brooks in the box tomor- row, the Sokols will have added con- | fidence that they can take the mea ure of the Industrial pennant win- ners.

Cleveland, O., Sept. 5 (P—Young Jack Thompson, world's welter- weight champion, risks his title to- I night for the first time since he won it from Jackie Fields four months ago. He will meet Tommy Free- man, Cleveland challenger, in a 15 round contest to a referee’s decision in the Cleveland American league baseball park. The match will be fought at the limit of 147 pounds. The champion figures to scale around 144 pounds, and Freeman at 146 pounds. Freeman defeated Thompson last January, before Thompson won the title, but in that engagement the Cleveland welterweight had a weight advantage of six pounds. He scal- ed 152 pounds, which enabled him to fetain his full fighting strength Whether paring his frame down to the welterweight limit would impair his fighting ability tonight was a question that caused his handlers to worry. Freeman, however, is con- | fident of victo Thompson remained a 2 to 1 fav- orite to retain his title.
