and the stars who hold

BASEBALL and the stars who hold AS the spotlight in the sport, enjoyed a bis day Sunday. From Dixie to the west coast and from Denver over to Yankeeland about Boston there was something doing and plenty of 1t in most spots. In the Southern league the Barons split double bill with Nun amakers Chattanooga boys. the Mobile Bears won a One-run victory over the Pelicans at New Orleans, putting the series on an even basis. the Chicks nosed out the Little Rock Pebbles in the tenth inning and the Vols lost to the Crackers in Nashville.
 
 Perhaps the big feature was the
 home runs made by Babe Ruth and
 Cy Williams, the former of the
 Yankees and the latter of the Phil
 lies. These sterling swatsmen tied
 for premier honors last year. each
 making Al circuit wallGps. Neither
 had got started before Sunday. Ruth cleared the Senators fence
 with his circuit blow, made off
 Walter Johnson, and Williams
 home run was gathered off an. other Walter. Ruether, of the
 Brooklyn Robins.
 Heinie Groh of the Giants connected with a homer and it was his second like blow of the season. George Gran than of the Cubs was another star to make his second homer. J. Bates of the Lookouts also hit home run Sun day, as did Zoellers of the Crackers. So far this year, 10 home runs have been made in the American league, IS in the National and II in the South ern. Sheely hit one for the White Sox.
 The players who have hit two
 homers so far are MeNIanus of the

 though Babe Ruth got his first
 long distance slam of the year 1t
 proved of little value as Walters
 Johnson easily defeated the Yan-
 kees, the latter losing their fourth
 straight game. two to Washington
 and two to the Boston Red Sox.
 The Chicago White Sox are perhaps playing the best ball to date, judging from the results on paper. Johnny Evers handled the team Sunday. as he has been doing since Frank Chance took ill on opening day. The White Sox used two pitchers to beat Cleve- land Sunday and won out on great rally in the eighth inning. It was the fourth straight victory for the Chicago club, one from the Indians and three from the Browns.
 The latter club has been playing
 in hard luck and losing despite
 George Sisler's brilliant playing.
 The Browns were beaten easily by
 the Tigers. St. Louis fifth straight
 defeat. and the Tigers second vic-
 tory of tho series. The Athletics ! and Red S0x were not scheduled
 Sunday.
 In the National league the New York Giants continued their fast pace and took the Boston Nationals into camp by the score of 2 to 1. It is evident from the score that Grohs homer counted. The Phillies won their first game of the year on Cy Williams homer and good hitting on the part of Butch Henline, Quaker catcher Johnny Morrison, former Baron, lost his second game of the year when he was beaten by the Cardinals, who pre- viously had lost four in a TOW. Gin cinnati got an even break on the series with the Cubs. Luque started and Jakie May finished for Hendricks.

ENGLISH CRACKS GOING AFTER BIG
 HONORS IN MEET
Penn Relays, Set For Last Of Week, To See
 Fast Time

sociated Press)-The 1924 relay carnival of the University of Pennsylvania, to be run April % and 26, at Franklin Field. will attract international interest for the fifth time in the 30 years that this meet has held a premier place in track and field limelight.
 Cambridge university of England. with a crack squad of runners, will sup ply the chief international flavor this year, although unusual interest also will attach to the presence of Eric Lid dell, star Edinburg sprinter, and the entry of several Canadian teams In re- lay features.
 Cambridge will make it's chief bid for honors in the two-mile relay champion ship which, since 1t was first made a part of the program in 1897, has created more track history than any other fix ture in college competitive history. It has witnessed the shattering of the worlds record on four occasions, first bridge in 1920, Pennsylvania in 1922 and again last year by Penn States crack quartet which hung up the present mark of minutes, AS 4-5 seconds.
 Cambridge probably will meet it's stiffest challenge from Penn State, which has it's two outstanding stars, Alan Helffrich and Schuyler Enck, hero or last years -raoe, 10 count upon Tn defending the championship.
 The international character of the re- lays, which have grown from a modest beginning in 1895 to a mammoth ath- letie spectacle which this year his drawn record entry of 500 schools and col leges, first was accomplished in 1914. That year Oxford sent over a four-mile team which conquered Pennsylvania in one of the most sensational races of it's kind ever run.
 The combined oxford and Cambridge team shattered the worlds two-mile mark in 1920, while France sent a one mile quartet which could do no better than fifth in 1921. Last year, Oxford won the sprint medley relay. making the third triumph for England.

 Pennsylvania has captured a majority of the relay laurels it has offered for competition, a recapitulation showing

REAL FIGHT SEEN IN RING TRYOUTS
Bouts Monday Night At B. A. c. Promise Keen.
 Competition

With a splendid, entry list and real competition promised, the Birmingham Athletic club is ready to stage tonight the southeastern olympic boxing try outs.
 With an ever increasing entry list and an ever-training squad of box ing amateurs already doing their regu- lar rounds. the Birmingham Athletic club is pushing plans for the South eastern Olympic tryouts to be held Mon- day night in the. club gymnasium. With the intermittent dropping in of more competitors in the various classes those who are already registered are speed- ing up an their conditioning work, sensing more acute competition.
 The heavyweight class is one note- worthy instance. Biz Boy Proctor thought for awhile that he was going to have to sail through the tourney without competition. Now, however, an opponent looms up on the horizon and the Big Boy will be called upon to 19o-pound specimen, and it is figured that the going is bound to be stiff when the twain meet.
 sse elEeavIes Kit Hard .-~ E
 Nothing Is more exciting in the way of fistic differences than those which originate and terminate as well in the heavyweight class. Here the blows are heavy and the fall equally so. With two energetic young gentlemen who pull the balance bar up with the weight slide far down the scale doing their best in such an encounter 1t is worth while for fans to look for something to break loose. Proctor is a battler who is out for battle andd it Is likely that he will find one Monday.
 In the lightweight class Arthur Crow der will be one of the fAvorites to come through successfully. This ringman Is in school at Alabama and will be in good condition due to his fistic activi- ties there. He made quite a reputation for himself in collegiate fistic circles up east and will enter the ring with quite a bit of experience behind him. Howard Cuthrells Joe Resha, Young Adolphus and Bennie Cloud are among those on the list who will get into the scramble for one of the three medals to be given away for the lightweight places. Daily Training
 Many boxers are working out every day at the club getting in their finish ing touches for the bouts and indica- tions point to some first-class boxing. Amateur competition always brings the real unadulaterated boxing game at It's best and the bill Monday night prom ises to be up to par. The boys are scheduled to start at 8 o'clock, and the bouts will be three rounds each. This will provide plenty of varied ac- tion for the fans.
