BRAVES ARE LOOMING AS
 BETTER CLUB
Young Blood Infused Into Squad Making Improve
 ments of Boston Team
By THOMAS L. HICKEY

ST PETERSBURG, Fla, March 30.-"I don't know about those Braves. they are apt to do lot, ' is, in short, what number of base ball men are saying about the Bos ton Nationals. "Wouldn't be sur prised very much the talk goes on, If they beat out the Brooklyns and Phillies anyway"
 So say We, after watching them in training in this lovely city on Tampa Bay. They are hopping to il every minute, snap, dash and go, up md down the line. Unmistakable cheer and ambition exists and, also, l audable spirit of the happy family kind of no little worth 10 any club.
 If the Braves get off the best foot forward, the momentum plus this flashing, driving way of theirs, may see them making lot of trouble III around tho circuit. It certainly loes seem they'll get out of the cellar where they finished last season after much hard luck in injuries and fail ure to ever really got started.
 The new syndicate owning the Braves, of which Christy Mathewson is president. and ex-Judge Emil Fuchs of New York, vice president, has come into a club in which youngsters

TENNIS OFFICIALS ADD TITLES. TO PROGRAM FOR COMING YEAR

NEW YORK, March 3O.-Three
 national :enn:s championship events,
 involving six titles in singles and 1 doubles, have bean added to the 1923 court program of the United States
 Lawn Tennis Association. The addition of these events-the
 national interscholastic, municipal
 and girls hard court championships increases to 36 the total number of
 titles at stake this year, a figure which represents the greatest array of national championships in the his-
 tory of the net game and gives fur ther proof of the rapid development of the sport
 Tho national interscholastics are
 being revived by the U. s. L. T. A
 this year after a lapse since 1911 The other two tournaments, however. arc innovations and promise to widen appreciably the scope of the court game
 Particular interest is attached to the municipal tournament. Encour agement of public court playing is one of the features of this years program under the administration of Dwight F. Davis, donor of the in ternational team trophy and presi- dent of the U. s. l.. T. A. Mr. Davis was a pioneer in the development of the municipal game in St. Louis
 Local and regional tournaments are planned as prcliminaries to the na- tional municipal championships with the idea that leading players in all sections of the country may thus be selected to compete for the national titles.
 The interscholastics, which prob ably will be held in connection with the intercollegiate championships were first started in 1891. The list of victors until the tournament was dropped in 1915 reveals some of the most prominent names in American tennis history, a fact which has in fluenced officials in restoring the tournament as one means of develop ing new talent.
 k. D. Wrenn, national singles championship in 1896 and 1897 and former president of the U. s. l.. T. A, won the first interscholastic title in 1891. Other prominent players who captured the championship on thcir way to greater fame included Beals C. Wright, national champion in 190a; Maurice E Mclaughlin, na- tional champion in 1912 and 1913; 1 Irving c. Wright. Nathaniel w. Niles, 1 Wallace Johnson, George M. Church i and Karl Behr. The last tournament, in 1915, was won by Harold Throek- morton.
 The list of other championship events on this years record calendar | includes: Mems and women's singles | and doubles on indoor, clay and turf l courts; veterans singles and doubles on turf; intercollegiate singles and | doubles; juniors and boys singles and doubles on turf and indoor courts; girls singles and doubles on | turf; mixed doubles on indoor, clay | and turf courts; and fathers and sons doubles.

CADILLACS TAKE TWO
 GAMES OUT OF THREE
 IN MATCH YESTERDAY

Equipped with the most modern ac- cessories and a shot of ether in it's gas tank, the Cadillac crew, under lthe leadership of Mrs. Faulkner, last night won two out of three games from tho .Oldsmobilcs, Mrs Tender i son, pilot, and piled up a total of 2173 pins in the mixed tournament being staged on the Elks' alleys. The losers made good scores, good enough to win almost any ordinary match, and scored tc.al of 2,11l pins.
 Barragar furnished the extra kick in the Cadillac's fuel, smashing 255 pins in the final game and getting high average with 206. Ficken was second high, bowling 215 in the open ling game and making an average for the game of 179
 The women bowlers were closely punched, none of them making less than 300 score. Mrs. Borland was high with 3S3 tcItal and high game of 147. Mrs Kirk was second high with 375. Mrs. Shattuck was second high for single game with 142 pins.
 The Oldsmobile crew got away to a flying start on the inside of the track and smashed 773 pins in the first game, while the Cadillac craft, having trouble with it's non-skids, trailed in the dust with 664. Some thing went haywirc on the Oldsmobile ship in the second game and the Cad illacs cut down the lead, winning the second 70S to 692 In the final game the pride of Detroit justified the praises of it's publicity depart ment by going over the line for sol, while the skidding Oldsmobiies dropped further back, scoring GAG.

ARGENTINE MAY BE
 IN 1924 OLYMPIAD;
 SEVERAL CONTENDERS

BUENOS AIRES, March 30.-There is a strong probability that Argen tina will be represented at the in ternational Olympic games next yea in Paris. President Olvear in re cent interview declared himself to be much in favor of the idea and has promised his support
 The triumph attained by the Ar genuine athletes at the South Ameri can Olympic games held in Rio de Janeiro last year has given an added stimulus to the hopes of those who think that the Argentines may make good showing at the Paris meeting At the Rio games the Argentine rep resentatives scored 94 points, being Brazilians with 56 and the Uruguay ans with AS. The best individual showing of the Argentines on that occasion was put up by Enrique Thompson, who covered the 400 met CTS hurdles event in 56 2-5 seconds. The time put up by Thomuson is the best ever made by a citizen of a Latin-American country. The 110 meters hurdles was covered by New bery. Argentine. in Is seconds, while another, vallania, only 16 years old, recorded 1.S1 meters in the high jump. The Argentine athletes won tho South American championship in tennis, fencing and horsemanship.
 The attendance of the Argentines at Paris would be controlled by the Argentine Sporting Federation, which is creating a special committee on Olympic games. Argentina probably would be represented in football athletics, tennis, fencing, shooting and possibly rowing, swimming and boxing.
 Argentina has only recently at tained some prominence in world sport. In addition to the good show ing made by her polo players in Great Britain and the United States, it may be recalled that only last year an Argentine swimmer. Romeo Maciel established world record for distance swimming and endurance when he swan over the River Plate on March 12, covering 54 khometers 300 meters, staying on that occasion 24 hours, B minutes, 40 seconds in the water Lillian Harrison, 19. year-old Argentine girl, on February 3, this year. established the feminine world record for endurance by swim ming down the River Parana to Buenos Aires from Zarate in 21 hours 20 minutes.

 This is particularly true of the fielders. For short four youngsters are putting up grand battle. They are Robert Smith from New Orleans; J0cko Conlon, the Harvard star; Err nest Osgood. obtained from Memphis, and Carl Schmehl, from Waterbury, Conn. A new man will be at short this year.

Airplanes Proposed
For Hunting Of
Wild Game

BERLIN, Nov. Wild ducks
and wild geese will have hard
time when airplane manufac-
turers get their latest ideas in
hunting machines worked out.
Wild animals in any country
without adequate shelter will
have no chance ct al.
"Noiseless" machines, able to
turn twenty different ways,
were the marvels Of the Gothen-
burg aircraft exhibition, accord
ing to the German engineers
just returned from Sweden.
Won Loessl, the German engi-
neer whose new principles Of
construction attracted much at
tention at the Gothenburg ex-
position, is of the opinion that
the most important development
in air traffic will come about
through the construction of a
very small plane of about
twenty horsepower, capable Of
carrying two persons--in other
words, an air taxi which the
business man can hire whenever
he wants to make a hurried
trip.
