CRESCENTS VICTORS
 OVER 5. $ U. OUTFIT
Defeat Lumber Yard Boys by
 Score of 49 to S5

Keeping up their winning stride the Crescents of the Boys club once more took. the fast Swift & Upson team into camp, 49-55. The game was as fast as any and the excitement was immense. Two of the s. & L. quin- let have played with the All-New Britains and the rest of the team were also of repute.
 Babcock started the ball rolling at the beginning of the battle with a neat little field goal. He soon was followed up with another by Meicz- kowski Of the Cresoents. The Cres- cents scored again when stohl drop. ped the ball through the net for a double pointer. At this point the Crescents scored freely while their op- ponents were held without Il point. After little more shooting by both teams the end of the first half found the Crescents leading by a neat little score of 24 to 9.
 Captain Huck started for the Cres- cents in the second half when he sunk & long shot. He repeated his act and in few minutes he and his team mates played the ball beautifully. Stohl made two baskets in row and Meiczkowski then pulled off a neat stunt when ke dribblcd through the defense of the s. & |. quintet and made pippin push-up shot. Here Captain Huck scored again. The next play found Babcock with the ball, un- able to find an opening to pass the ball. Huck closed in on him and in a few seconds had the ball from Bab- cock and dribbled down the floor for another double counter. Captain Huck sank two more shots after this and after a little more playing the whistle blew and tho score board read Crescents aa, Swift & Upson ss.
 Going to Waterbury.
 Crescents will journey over to Waterbury tomorrow evening to com bat with the fast Hopeville team of that city. Last year tho latter de- feated the Crescents twice. This year the Crescents snapped back and trim med them last week in the first at- tempt and they decided 10 repeat that act again this Thursday.
 Babcock. Maher and Carrosza starred for the Swift & Upson quin- let in last nights game and for the Crcscents Captain Hnek together with Meiczkowski and Stohl led their team to victory. The work of Nyborg and Levin for the winners excelled very much.

IBERLENBACH VICTIM
 OF RUSHING EVIL
Many Athletes Ruined by Going
 Out Of Glass Too Soon
(By Billy Eyans)

The career of many a star athlete has often been checked, sometimes ruined, by being rushed, This is par ticularly true of the fight game.
 The pugilistic sensation ofthe win ter was Paul Berlenbach. He added much color to the fight game by sen- sational string of knockouts. .
 The very moment any fighter runs up bunch of consecutive wins over the knockout route the sport fans set up the howl that his opponents are being picked.
 The case of Paul BerienDach was no exception. Instead of becoming popu- lar because of his kayo ability, the fans packed the house when he fought, hoping he would be knocked out.
 This feeling was created by the be- lief that Berlenbach wasn't taking q chance with rival worth while.
 Berlenbachs manager, Dan Hickey, insisted that while his fighter packed dynamite in either hand, he was a mere novice at the fight game and had to be handled carefully.
 Neither the fans nor the press was satisfied with Hickey's explanation From all quarters he was urged 10 send BerleDbach against a weli-known middleweight.
 Hickey, against his own good judg- ment, fell for the bunk and sent Ser lenbaeh against Jack Delaney just about ono year too soon.
 As a result Of the meeting, Berlen- bach was abruptly stopped in his climb to pubilistic fame by being knocked out,
 It will be recalled that ITirpo wanted the Dempsey fight postponed one year. He didn't think he was ready.
 Popular demand and the lure of money, however, caused Firpo to take chance. He was knocked out after having lost the big chance to win the heavyweight title because of inexperi- ence.
 About eight years back Jimmy Dunn, then manager of Johnny kil- bano, featherwcight champion, was the most banned manager in captivity because he refused to match kilbnne with Knockout George Chsney.
 Chaney at that time was an even greater ring sensation than Berlen- bach as knockout kind. He loomcd ID as the fighter certain to dethrone lSilbane.
 At that time Silbane was fighting his best. I was rather surprised at the attitude of Dunn, even though l realized Chaney a most dangerous op- ponent. When I asked Dunn for an explanation he remarked:
 "chsney is tough boy He might beat kilbsne if 1 matched him now, but in a year he will be soft picking.
 'Thaney swaps punches. In every bout he takes good whipping before he gets his man. Those beatinss will soon tell on a fellow who fights as often as Chaney does.
 ''i.et them rave. kilbane isn't going to fight Clancy until l am ready 10 make the match. Then kilbanc will knock Clancy out without any great trouble"
 Dunn stuck 10 his guns. Finally made the match. Clancy was big favorite. kilbane stopped him in three rounds. Rushing fighter, even champion, is usually a grieyous mis- take.
 Christmas and New Year are ob- served the world over.

New York, Dec, II. - William Randolph Hearst, has publicly raj, lied to the support of Mayor Hylar in Hylan's stand against the transit investigation ordered by Governor Smith.
 In a telegram t,om California to the New York World, Mir.

! Autographed Balls From.
Times Sports Department.

How would you like to have q
baseball autographed BY Babe
Ruth?
Now there's something to put
away with the honorable dis
charge, the family heirlooms and
the accident policy, to be handed
down to Little Willie and his
heirs and assigns forever.
Babe Ruth, infant terrible of
the New York Yankee baseball
team, is going to give away at
least two dozen baseballs, auto
graphed in the presence Of his
admiring friends, tomorrow at the
office Of The Washington Times.
Yankees Play Tomorrow.
The Yankees open their first
series with the Griffmen at Ameri-
can League Park tomorrow, but
the first public appearance Of the
Ahkoond of Swat is expected to be
from a window in the Sports De-
partment Of The Times.

this morning that he wants to
celebrate the opening in Washing
ton with some tokens of his af-
lection for the fans here.
I've always had a soft spot
in my heart for Washington" he
wires," because when l was being
severely razzed for things beyond
my control, the gang in Washing.
ton didn't condemn me without a
and justified their confidence, and
now / want to show them that /
appreciate it."
The Babe selected the sports Of
flee of The Washington Times as
the place to pull his stunt, because
he is a member of the sports staff,
and writes pieces for the paper,
much to the pride of Louis A.
Dougher, The Times sports editor
and baseball writer.
The Babe will sit on the window
sill Of the Sports Department, which
is on the second floor of the Hearst
Building, and pen his name on tho
baseballs he uses in regular games
and in batting practice. These
will then be tossed to his friends
in the crowd below the window on
H street and on New York avenue.
This will be the Swat Kings first
appearance In Washington this
season and will give his many ad.
mirers an opportunity to stage q
real reception for him. Everybody
is invited to attend the reception.
see the King of the Home Runs in
his store clothes, and share in the
opportunity to receive one of his
autographed baseballs.
