 HONOR HANK GOWDY
Titian-Topped Catching Ace to Return to Diamond Tomorrow

Boston, May 23.-At Braves field, tomorrow afternoon, the fans of Bos- ton and from all over New England for that matter will assemble to do honor to Hank Gowdy, the titan topped catcher of the Braves who has but recently returned from IS months of overseas duty. Gowdy was the first major league player to enlist the first major league player to get into the thick of the fight on the other side, and he saw a longer pe- riod of actual service at the front than any other of the many major league players who served their country. These things the fans have not forgotten and Saturday will be the first time they will have an op- portunity of doing honor to this pa triot.
 Gowdy rejoined the club only two weeks ago, almost upon the day that he returned with the Rainbow divi- sion of which he was a member, but he has been working hard ever since and believes that by Saturday after noon, when he is slated to get in there behind the bat that he will be

It is understood that he will get a four l figure Victory bond as one memento; his fellow clubmates have arranged an elaborate presentation; and sev- eral distinct delegations will make in 1 dividual donations in honor of Gowdy.

BASEBALL IN MOONLIGHT
Military Rules Govern Game Played by Marines in Guam-15 Innings Before Winner Is Decided

Washington, May 23.-Marines down in Guam have the ball game and peanut habit like all good Amer jeans back in the States. Only this time they've started something new in the national sport, according to a letter received by a member of the Navy department. In a recent game between the Agana and Sumay Ma rines, running through 1 , innings, the last four innings were played by the light of full moon, rising over the palms which border the plaza.
 In a game played by moonlight aI- most anything is likely to happen. Manion, of Sumay, started things for his team when he mailed a ball in the post office through a hole in the screen of one of the windows The Agana fielder was unable to recover it. for Section I120 of the local postal regulations forbids men in uniform entering the post office after sundown without special permission of the commanding officer. Therefore, the Sumay boys walked off with the vic tory while the Agana athletes looked helplessly on.

Tex Rickard Says Advance Sale for Big Bout to Date Totals $27O, ,OOO- Feels Jubilant.

Toledo, O., May 23.-Tex Rickard, who returned here last night, jubi- lantly announced that if the advance sale of seats continued at the present ratio for the next seven weeks the total would be considerably more than $50O,OOO.
 The promoter said the sale to date exceeds $270,000, which practically equals the entire amount received at the Jeffries-J ohnson battle at Reno.
 Officials of an autom obile company have sent a check for $17, 1000 for the purchase of seats for the company agents.
 Dempsey did his first boxing yes terday, stepping two rounds with Willie Doyle, a lightweight. The workout was in the nature of a frolic for the challenger. He also swam in the icy waters of Maumee Bay, and was the only man in camp with cour- age to brave the cold plunge. Earlier in the day he took a siX-mile hike on the roads and later played a game of handball.

YALE DECLINES RACE.
No Four Oar Training for the Contest
 With Harvard.

New Haven, May 23.-Harvard has sent to Yale a challenge for a four pared boat race on the day preceding the Thames River regatta next month. The mem bers of such a crew would be substitutes of the varsity eight. Yale will decline because the training this spring has not embraced four-oar work. Coach Mather Abbott may suggest that the race be made one of eights, to be composed of four varsity substitutes and four freshmen in each boat.
 On the harbor, Saturday, number of crews will compete in a university regatta. and the winner of the junior sophomore event will row against the Harvard champion junior crew.
 The crew management has decided to send the freshman crew instead of the second Varsity crew to the Amer ican Henley on the Schuyll<lll the 31st. The university, second university, the freshman and one substitute crew will go to Gales Ferry on June 5.

 Intercollegiate Meet.

Middletown, May 23.-WesIeyan will send Il men to compete in the New England intercollegiate track meet in Boston tomorrow, five for the races and six for the field events. These mon left here early this morn ing in charge of Coach H. A. Lum.

Cutbill will be entered in the half-mile and the quarter-m races, both of which events he won from the Brown team last week.

 Anderson will compete in the shot put and discus throw; Bain also will be entered for the latter event. John son and Wagner are entered for the broad jump. Mueller for the pole vault and Grinton for the high jump

CTCOTTE GOING WELD.

Eddie Cicotte is the second oldest pitcher in the American league as regards continuous service, but he is getting away this year better than he did in any recent campaign. A year ago Eddie and victory were strangers for a long time after the season opened, though he pitched fairly good ball. So far this spring Cicotte has won six games and lost only one and his work has been uni- formly good. He is holding oppo- nents to small scores and few hits in most of his games, and he bids fair to be as successful as in 1917. per- hapS more so. Cicotte's work last season led to the belief that he was going back but this spring he is prov ing otherwise.

TT CURED MITCHELL.

Before Clarence Mitchell, of the Robins, entered the Army, his favor, ite prank was to initiate a tire blow out by clapping his hands as an auto- mobile passed him. Nine times out of ten, so realistic was the imitation, the driver would bring his car to a halt and get out to investigate, much to the delight of Mitchell. When he got into the Army he tried the stunt, but not very often. One day he gave the imitation as an Army car passed by and it was successful. The car stopped and a major stepped out. Not finding a blowout and syping Mitchell watching him with great interest, he threatened to court-martial him if he tried the prank again. Mitchell cut if ont

CRACK CREW INVITED
New Zealand Oarsmen Who Won On Seine River in France Will in All Probability Row at Worcester.

Worcester, Mass, May 23.-Oars- men from Australasia and probably Canada, England and France, will take part in the annual regetta of the National Association of Amateur Oarsmen, on Lake Quinsigamond at Worcester, Mass. on August 1 and 2. This news came yesterday from James Pilkington, the president of the association, who added that in terest in rowing in this country, which was at a low ebb during the war, was developing by leaps and bounds.
 Mr. Pill1ington said that the New Zealand eight, which won the recent interallied race on the Seine and beat the crew of the American college stars, had asked that it be invited to compete at Worcester. He declared that the invitation had been de- spatched forthwith and that there was little doubt that the Australia Sians would row here, as they will pass through this country on their way home.
 Two of the races will be closed to soldiers and sailors of the United States and the Allies. They will be a single scull event and a four pared gig race with coXsWains. The prize for the sculling race has been donated by Major-Gen. O'Ryan, and the gig prize by Jack Mulcahy.
