 WILSON'S MASTER
Defeats the Former Champion
 for Third Time

Boston, April 1S.-Harry Grcb of Pittsburgh, middleweight boxing champion, scored his third victory over Johnny Wilson of New York, former titleholdcr, when he won by wide margin from Wilson in a ten round bout here last night. They boxed at catch weights, Greb weighing 16S1& and Wilson 1G412.
 Grcb scored in every round with q right uppercut which he used to good advantage at close quarters and did the bulk of the forcing. Wilson found Grcb elusive and was able to land effectively only infre- qucntly. Wilson rallied occasionally but never was able to reduce consis- .tcntly the advantage in points which gave Greb the decision.
 Ali Skinner of Scotland won from Tom McKirnan of New York in the fourth round Of scheduled eight round preliminary when the referee stopped the bout. Tommy Freeman of Hot Springs, Ark, won a decision over Bennie Ross of Buffalo in the eight round semi-fnal.

 on the 2Sth

Cambridge, Mass, April IS. '- A shell containing four of the varsity crew of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology that defeated Cor nell last year has been slipping over the surface of the Charles river this spring five miles day, six days a week. Hard driven because of the early date of the race against Navy at Annapolis-April 25-both tho senior and junior eights have gained much of last seasons form but stil according to observers, are far from the smooth working machines de- sired by Coach Bill Halnes.
 i've are not overburdened with big men," Coach Haincs admitted, but we are making the most of the material at hand"
 The M. l. T, stroke is patterned after the University of Washington stroke but is slightly abbreviated in order to attain a higher beat for the short distances at which the crews will race. Early season form has been criticized as unsteady and short-the shells rolling too much and the blades not being held in the water long enough. But Haines said, i've hope to get things slip ping along smoothly by the time we are called upon to race"
 Four veterans of last years victory over Cornell in this years crew arc Hamblet at boy; Horle, five; Captain Latham, six, and NalentineF stroke The seating of the senior varsity eight, which probably will not bt changed before the opening race, is Stroke, Valentine; !, Peterson; 6 Captain Latham: 5, Hore; 1, Col lins; 3, Loricr; ?, Underwood; bow Hamblet; coxswain, Houghton.

 Browns - Pirates Drop : to Cubs.

New York. April IS. Western teams held undisputed possession of first place in the two major league races today, with the champion Giants and Senators Of the east, gaining ground after their slow Etarts.
 The Cincinnati Reds, who galloped oft 10 an unexpected three-game winning streak with the opening gun, slid back into a tie for the lead with the Chicago Cubs yester- day. Their string was broken in an eleven inning game with the Cardi- nals, but the box score does not give lhe real explanation of the reversal.
 After three sterling mound exhi- bltions by Donohue, Rixey and Lu- que the Reds were unable to call upon ono of the stars of their twirl- ing staff whose record gave indica- lion that he would have improved their chances of maintaining the streak in his 1924 form. Carl Mays 'ho submarine hurler who won 20 :.amcs for Cincinnati last year, is stn unavailable because of a sore srm, and the three moundmen who endeavored 10 fill the vacancy yes- torday were hit at crucial period for eleven timely safeties.
 The Cubs outbattcd the Pirates to win at to 6, Hartnett and Miller icading in the attack. The former posted his fourth home run of the campaign, while Miller led the play CTS of both leagues for the day with jour bingles in as many turns in the batters box.

 While Cleveland was putting over its third straight, the Athletics were scowling skyward at the threatening clouds which finally emptied rain- drops 10 insure their first defeat of the season. With Boston leading at 4 to 3 in the fifth, the game was called,
 The defeat dropped Mach's con- tingent into tie for second place with the Senators, who again pushed back the Yankees to i, with a home run in the fourth by Jot Judge which cleared the sacks. The knot will be cut today when Wash ington opens series in Philadelphia with the Mackmen.

 Captain Mickey Luke of New Britain and Dunn of the Water bury Boys club are easily the best centcrs, and Luke bested his much larger opponent in hard battle when the two teams cIashed here. Madden of the Manchester Cres. cents also proved most dangerous as a pivot man, but not as much so as these two.
 For the guard positions there is no choice but the two New Britain men, Frank Arburr and Elmer "Nibby" Nyborg, for this duo, far apart in personality and method, were practically irvincible in q tight game and worked together perfectly, Arburr's tenacity and Nibby's speed making them great combination. Nagle of the Water bury Boys club and Fray of Hope vile were the most worthy defensive men whom the locals faced during the season.

 The choice here is much easier as there are only three teams instead of about 15 from which to pick. The New Britain club won the league by the margin of a single game over Mcridcn, while FBristol, failed to count single win during the entire season. This was due mainly to their lack of really good forwards. so that the choice narrows down 10 the New Britain and Meriden offen- sive men. Andy Yakubowicz and Charley Bigge, the local entries. led the league in scoring and were a great combination when working to- gether. their coordination giving them the advantage over Kocin and | Thicson of Meriden, who gave them q great run but are less experienced.
 Mellino, the Bristol center, stands head and shoulders above the other contenders for the berth; he has height, speed, accuracy, and plenty of dash. Zapatka of New Britain draws the second assignment; Pete is fast and aggressive player, but he is handicapped by lack of height.
 Rao of Bristol, a late conner into the league, showed the best form o the defensive men, being mos tenacious guard and also injecting 9 kick into the weak Bristol offense :; he came near to putting Bristol into the win column several times, bu'

We present above our selection for all-star basketball teams picked from the quintets which appeared at the Boys club this season, and, though fault may be found with this choice, no ore can deny that these are four pretty teams. The first and second ''all-star" teams, and-pickcd from the great first five ot the local club and it's op- ponents, would have our backing against practically any amateur out fit in the state, while the "Triangu- lar league" teams, although com posed of lighter fellows, would have no difficulty in disposing of anything else their size.
 The New Britain Boys club team was so far superior to any of its ' opponents that it could be set down practically intact and called 'all- starr on its marvellous teamwork, i but it played against some fast men who, on individual ability must be ! given a hearing. First and foremost , of these must be placed Darlington, . the star of the Hopeville Speed Boys of Waterbury; Darlington wac

 locals early in the season and proved hard to stop later in the year when ! the New Britain boys avenged 1 themselves. Fast, usually aggres- | sive, and a sure shot, he is sure Of berth at forward. For the other frontal berth we select Haggerty Of
 the Willimantic All-Stars, who fea- ! tured the final game of the season and, practically all by himself, gave 1 New Britain its toughest battle | during it's run of IS straight wins But 1t is said. however, that Ray 1 Anderson of the locals deserves g l place here but, since he also coach

RUTH EATING SELF
 OUT OF BIG SHOW
His Appetite Is Proving Bam.
 bino's UndOins
(BY BILLY EVANs)

New York, April 1S.-When Babe Ruth starts to slip physically he will pass out of the picture quickly.
 Overeating has ruined more ball players than any other form of dis sipation.
 Babe Ruth is not only the worlds greatest slugger but champion eater as well. His dining room average is far better than hls dia- mond efforts.
 About five years ago in a series at Detroit, Ruth crashed out three home runs. His super-batting feats crowded out of the headlines some of the remarkable play of the great Ty Cobb.
 That evening I bumped into Cobb in the lobby of the hotel where l reside in that city. I joshed him about Ruth logging the spotlight.
 '"rhe Babe has 1t coming to him; he's a wonder" said Cobb. But when he breaks it's going to come quickly. I was In the majors about ten years before Ruth made his debut and I am inclined to think I'll still be there after he is through
 Ruth has a great physique and he is punishing it. His worst fault is the way he cats. He can eat as much as three ordinary men. He's bound to pay the penalty.
 T watch my diet, particularly during the playing season, more closely than any other feature of my work.
 "A good batting eye depends en- tirely on the condition of the stomach. The slugger must time his swing more perfectly than any other type of batter. When there comes break between the eye and the muscles, the slugger is generally handicapped. There must be the proper coordination.
 Some day Ruth is going 10 pay the penalty and it is going to be costly. When his nervous system breaks down, he's done"
 As I read of the two nervous breakdowns suffered by Ruth, first in the south and later in New York, l recall vividly Cobb's conversation. If reports as to Ruth's condition are correct the prophecy of Cobb seems almost uncanny.
 Ruth ridicules the diet theory. He believes in eating and does it.
 Before a ball game several hot dog sandwiches, as many bottles of pop all washed down with a quart of ice cream, is a light lunch fo1 Babe.
 About the second inning Babe usually starts taking large doses of aromatic spirits of ammonia or bi. carbonate of sodl in water 10 relieve the gases on his stomach due tc the wild combination of food he has disposed of.
 It is the same thing every da, With him. It looks as if nature k DesIniIhg to relnonstrate in a most forcble manner.
 Ruth is prone to be fat, takes or weight easily. Instead or na,.in, attention 10 his diet he has re- duced each year by hard work an, many vapor baths. That svstcr also is beginning to exact its tou When l saw Ruth in the south h, , Was about 20 pounds ovcrwniebt :, mat Is not unusual for him in tb, = spring He complained at inc finn, y %Dou. ,is, ms legs saying they worrie, s l'T, more than the extra weight. = I'u,h has slender legs, not in lEpe 10 carry 23O pounds.
