 Potential Winner
ey The Associated Press.

By Ths Aesocisted fress
 Cambridge. Mass. April 17.--For the first time in several years Hsr- yards prospects for q winning var sity crew appear promising this spying. Away to c good start. with mild weather which has permitted rowing a month earlier than usual. the crew has attained advanced con. dition and form. There Is as much power in the first varsity boat as last year at the same time. the stroke IS longer. the rowing smoother. and the men work better together. Coaches praise the mental attitude of the crews.
 So far. only . slow stroke has been used. nayer surpassing at 10 the minute, and remaining for the most part at 20.
 The order in practice has been: Stroke. Robert winthrop: [, Kent Leavitt; 6, John Hubbard; 5. George Johnson; (. Charles Darlington; 8. Godfrey Plat; 3. Robert Ladd: bow, Captain Sylvester Kelley: COZ. ste- phen Heard.
 Winthrop, Johnson and Kelley rowed in last years varsity. Darling ton. Hubbard and Heard were with the 1ss4 second crew, the first of these two. with Leavitt. rowing with the champion class crew before they were promoted. Ladd, ineligible for the 1928 freshman crew. was rec ognized as a strong oarsman. Platt explained last years freshman she'll,

 members of various Crimson crews last year. A third varsity also Isl lon the water with experienced oars
 men.
 Johnson at No. 5 Is rated by many
 observers as the best oarsman in the varsity shell. Captain Kelley is the
 only member of the crew who has
 been a regular for three years and is
 smooth skilled, and strong enough ] to stand the four mile grind against : Yale. He also has proved a good leader.
 Platt is finding no trouble in hold ling his own with the regulars. Cox
 swain Heard has shown himself ca pablo: he Is keen at discovering
 rowing flaws and able to obtain a maximum of work from his charges winthrop, a<member a of the junior class. stroked the eight against Cor nell and Yale last season and un- less 1t develops that he cannot drive , the crew at high stroke, he seems reasonably sure of holding his seat.

WATERBURY HAVING
 MATCHES TONIGHT
George Mulligan Gets Together Good Card For Boxing
 Fans

Waterbury, April 17,-Much inter- est is being displayed, not only in Waterbury but throughout the state In the popular priced boxing show which Promoter George Mulligan has arranged for tonight in the state armory on Field street. Five bouts, calling for 33 rounds of box ing have been arranged and every one of the bouts promised to bring fourth plenty of action.
 The main bout of 10 rounds brings together Sheik Leonard of Walling- ford and Harlem Jimmy Kelly of New York at 150 pounds. Leonard is we'll known throughout the state where he has done most of his fight ing. Kelly is also noted for being hard hitter and a dog-like battler who never gives up. This should be a slashing go.
 The semi-f1nal of six rounds be- tween Jack Parker of Waterbury and Chuck Burns of San Antonio, Texas. Parker is former champion of the 18th Division and has done but little professional fighting since returning from the service.
 A inter-sectional battle between two Waterbury boys takes place when Red Garren of the East End tackles Eddie Lord Of the South End. Both boys are coming along fast and neither can afford a set- back at this time. An inter-city tus- sel of interest is that between Young Farrar of Naugatuck and Young Sunderland of Bristol. Both boys have their home towns solidly be" hind them and are confident that they will win. The opening bout of four rounds brings together Young Altiere of Waterbury and Irish Johnny Hayes of Waterbury. This will be the first time either of these two lads have stepped out of the amateur ranks but they both have shown much promise in their previ' ous bouts.

(BY JOE WILLIAMS)

New YorK, Aprll l1.-Mr. James slattery of Butfalos historic First Ward, seems destined to be the next middleweight champion of the world,
 Mi. James Slattery Is fine up- standing Irishman. 20 years of age. who has taken to the vulgar busi- ness of fist singing quite as natural ly as the slatterys of any community are popularly supposed to.
 A week or so ago, MT. James Stat tery stifed a yawn and bounced Augie Rather for morbid inquest in less than two rounds, com pleting the unpleasant task with the grace of a Corbett and the finality of Dempsey.
 Not many of the younger set in Knuckledom are manhandling Mrs. Ratner's bald headed boy that way these days.
 Withstood Paul's Punches
 We remember seeing Paul Berlen- bach, the distinguished paralyzer, spray Rather from head to foot with various kinds of dynamite last fall without once causing the fearless husky to leave his feet.
 It is also written in the musty records that Rather once stopped Jack Delaney in his French-Cana- dian tracks with left hook to the t,n vt tc hA Nal " who has been figuring prominently In the prints as a result of his ener- getic escapades with one Tiger Flowers.
 The present middleweight cham pion, if you haven't forgotten, is Harry Greb. The champion shaded Slattery in a sIx-round bout some months back This should not have surprised anyone. Greb is still in vincible over the sprint distance.
 How the champion would fare against Slattery in a longer fight of l2 or 15 rounds is something else.
 Great as Is our admiration for Greb as an all-roupd workman in the ring, we think we'd string along with the Buffalo youngster. Can Hit Harder
 Slattery hits just as fast as Greb with either hand and harder. Greb seldom hurts you. Slattery always hurts you. Grebs speed kept him out of danger in the six round tussle. It might not hold out for him in a longer fight. Slattery will probably be thrown against Greb late in August in 6 championship fight outdoors.
 By August, Sattery will have reached his majority and will bt eligible to participate in the longer fights. A commission rule has re. stricted his local appearance here tofore to six rounds.
 AS a young phenom Of the ring Slattery seems to have completel, crowned Willie stribling of Georgil out Of the pictures.
 The answer is, Slattery Is a punch CT, Stribling isn't.
 Your prize fight follower does no change as the years roll on. Tn same old primordial thirst for bIoo, that existed in Mir Gus II. Hatchet the we'll known caveman of th stone age period, is still there.
 Punch Shows Way
 The fancy steppers and clever tar pers may have their exclusive re stricted followings, but the boys wh swing from the hip and leave i their wake limp forms of indiscrat challengers, will alwoys commsn the enthusiasm Of the mob. So, If Mir. James Slatterv f Buffalo continues his winning wa, and presently ascends to the fiji
 his popularity will be no less wid, spread and sincere than that CT
 loyed by Messrs. Dempsey sr Walker, two other Irishmen, who A, not afraid to put all they have h, , hind their punches.

New Haven. Conn. April IT. --I Yale and Harvard rowing officials yesterday arranged to round out SO years of rowing with their annual meeting on the Thames at New Lon don on June ls. In general the pro- gram duplicated every one scheduled for New London since tho world war, except that the graduates of both universities have decided to omit the holding of an alumni race as one of the two preliminary events of the day before the varurry classic, following immediately upon the commencement exercises of the two universities.
 If 1t Is necessary to postpone any or all of the races until the next day, the time and the course to be rowed will be decided by the referee, W. A. Meikelham, the varsity crew cap tains and F. Valentine Chappell Of New London, chairman of the re- gatta committee. The tentative plans as announced last night will be submitted soon to MT. Meikleham. who is at present out of the coun- try.
 It was decided to row the Yale Harvard varsity race up stream. For two years the race has been rowed down stream. The change was made at a conference among the college and railroad representatives. Those present were Manager Charles H. Walker of the Yale crew; W. s. Blanchard, manager of the Harvard crew; H. F. Woodcock. general man" ager of the Yale Athletic association; Mir. Chappeli, Walter P. Read. gen. eral passenger agent of the New Haven road. and Messrs, Healey of the Central Vermont and Smith of the New London division of the New Haven.
 It was decided to have an observa. ton train of s2 cars on the New Haven roadside of the Thames for the varsity race and one of 1e cars for the freshman and junior varsity races. The Central Vermont rail- road also will have observation trains.
 Manager Walker of the Yale crew announced the following tentative schedule of races agreed upon at the conference:
 Thursday, June IS, p. m. (east- ern standard time) -- Combination crews, Yale and Harvard, upstream middle two miles.
 Friday, June 1s. s:45 a. m. = Freshman crews, Yale and Harvard downstream, upper two miles. fin ishing at navy yard.
 Second varsity crews, Yale and Harvard: same course. 5 p. m.-Varsity crews, Yale and Harvard, upstream, starting at rail road bridge.
 The condition Is made, In tht agreement reached. that If the water Is smooth at the time of the fresh man and junior varsity races, these races will be rowed down stream over the middle two miles of the regular four-mile course.
 With the tide conditions as they will be on June 1s, however, 1t i' expected by the officials that th' water will be rough and that tht crews will row over the upper twt miles, downstream, as given in thu schedule. If a postponement of th' ! freshman and junior varsity races fl necessary, they will be rowed up . stream over the middle two miles ' the freshman race starting at 2iao

Giants Defeat Braves Athletics Win Third Hartnett Gets Two Homers and go Does GosIin - Scott Pitches Great Ball.

New York, April tH-TNo teams progressed to their third successive victories in the National and Amer lean leagues yesterday by opposite routes,
 Pitching Of an unusually high caliber for the caP-- season carried the Cincinnati Reds 10 undisputed possession Of first place Ill the senior loop. After two previous dis plays of defensive strength posted by Donohue and LuQue, the former league champions were pitched 10 a third victory over the Cardinals by Eppa Kixey, to 3. All three moundmen limited the St. Louis team to six hits.
 Athletics Also Win
 h marked contrast 10 Cincin- natls method of triumph, Connie Mack's Athletics again rescued weak hurling by sheer hitting strength in bling up their third win over the Red Sox, to 3. Eddie Rommel got away to a bad start in the first, when Boston scored all their three runs, but after that ses- sion he kept the home club away from the plate. The Philadelphia club showered the park with hits as they had done in the first two games. duplicating their opening total of 2 NafntlaH.
 Brooklyn Slips Back
 Brooklyn slipped back to a tic with Chicago for second place in the National when four of their pitchers failed to check Philadel- phia hitting that was spread over the entire lineup. every member of Fletcher's cohorts getting at least one bingle. Clarence Mitchell gave the Robins only six ssfeties, and the Ouakers breezed In by 8 to l.
 Giants Tie Series
 The Giants evened their series with the Braves, prohting by the superb pitching of the rejuvenated Jack Scott. Jack, who has had checkered career during which his arm was twice consigned to the baseball scrapheap. allowed the Bancroft entry only four hits and single run.
 Two home runs by Clarence Hart nett figured conspicuously in boost ing the cubs into a tie with Brook lyn for second place through an S-3 victory over Pittsburgh.
 Pitchers Duel
 Cleveland and St. Louis reacted from their weird slugfest of opening day and put on the first real pitch CTS duel of the season. Chle and Van Glider between them allowed only nine hits, and the former won only because Wyatt was twice suc- cessful in circling the bases, his home run in the ninth winning the game, 2 to l.
