CHARLIE H Of
BOOSTS CARR

NEW YORK. Feb. 13.-Charley
Hoff the long, lean and lanky pole
vaulter from Norway, is one who
does not share the general opinion
that he Is so much better than any
other vaulter In the world that
there is no comparison.
AS a matter of fact. he feels
that we have right here In the
East, In Sabin Carr, of Yale, q
very dangerous opponent, and one
who has 1t in him to better the
worlds indoor record, which Hoff
established at Boston last Saturday
night. Moreover. in Hoff's opinion.
had Carr not been 50 nervous in
the Boston meet he would nave
cleared Is feet six inches.
The fact that the Norwegian star
decided to ,curtail his schedule prior
to Che Wilco A. A. games tonight
after learning that the Yale vaulter
would be one OF his opponents there
indicates the respect he has for
Carr's ability.
On Monday and again yesterday
Hoff went down to Princeton Uni
versity to train. This work, he
feels, will put him In fine eondi-
ton for another attack on the
worlds record tonight. Yale is
sending smother vaulter along with
Carr. Whether 1t will be Sturdy,
who competed against Hoff at the
Garden or Durffee, will not be de.
cided before this afternoon.

try next May with intention Of com
peting for national outdoor titles.
Hubert Houben, German sprint star,
has sailed for home. expressing con.
fidence that he would outrun
Americas fleetest dash men on the
cinder track.
Although disappointed over his
inability to win any Of mis- three
starts, HOuben, the first prominent
German athlete to appear in this
country since the war, said he had
been royalty received by Ameri-
cans" and was pleased that war
time feeling had been submerged in
ii generous welcome to him at each
of his appearances on the track.
II am coming back to prove to
America that am a better man
than appeared this winter. !"
Houben declared II am conf
dent I can beat Murchison and Hus-
sey in outdoor races. =
Houben explained that he was
unaceustomed to the short indoor
spirits on the boards. He likes
100 yards as his best distance. he
says, and will direct his efforts
toward annexing the national
crown at that distance upon mis- re.
turn here.
Sporting writer's of Berlin accept
Hubert Houben's failure to win a
single sprint event during his
American invasion with the com.
forting assurance that defeats are
always instructive, ridiculing GER
tain German-American insinuations
that the German runners invasion
to compete in the United States was
q trap to make him Loren Murch-
ison's victim.
They assert, however, that Hou-
ben was seriously Handicapped by
American indoor sprinting on
wooden tracks. They also declared
that In an outdoor race on an open
track it is inevitable that the con-
queror OF Murchison and Charles
Paddock. in Germany last summer
win defeat the former again, as well
as Miller and Hussey.

PENNOCK READY
FOR Bis YEAR

NEW YORK, Feb. Herbert
Pennock. Yankee southpaw, will not
retire at least for another year.
Last season Herbie made the
declaration that 1925 would be his
final year in baseball. One of the
principal reasons for Pennock MAX
ing this assertion was his business.
He is in partnership with DIR. Free
man Mcdonald In two thriving fox
ranches, one In Canada and the
other in Pennsylvania.
1t was DIR. McDonald's wish that
Herb give up the national game.
The doctor thought that Pennock
could be Of more use to their fox
farming industry by staying on one
OF the ranches than by hurting his
effective downward breaking hook.
Last spring Pennock signed con.
tract for two years with the
Yankees. The contract has one
more year to go and then 1t is
Pennock's intention to retire.
While a delicate appearing fellow
and always under weight, Pennock
has taken on several pounds work
ing around his Pennsylvania farm
this winter and he looks forward
to having one of the best years In
his career.
Herbie reports that with his in
crease in weight he will be able to
work oftener. Pennock would per-
haps be one of the greatest pitchers
in the game could he Withstand the
strain of working hard. He did not
take his turn on the mound with
the regulars until last season, when
he was overworked. owing to the de-
moralized condition of the Yankee
staff.
Last season Is point OF effective
ness, Pennock ranked second among
American League moundsmen.

The WiIls-Lenglen match Is today
strongly reminiscent of the prelim-
inaries OF the Dempsey Gibbons al
fair at Shelby, Mont. There Ii
considerable pickering over money
matters and plenty OF rumors that
the match is certain to be played.
The motion picture rights have
brought about this state OF affairs.
The promoters OF the tournament
have decided to cancel the deal
for the granting Of exclusive rights
for the pictures of the match, but
they have given the Representatives

full day to think the matter over
and to make bids for the right to
jointly film the match.

United States Lawn Tennis As
sOciatiOn, Is ignoring all Of this
pulling and hauling and Is Just
playing tennis and devOting her
spare time to sketching. She is
letting the money pots boil, with.
out causing her any worry.
Mile. Lenglen earlier in the week
was quoted as saying, II never
worry about the MOVIES but it
begins to appear as though she
had once more exercised her wom-
anly rights and changed her mind.
The story goes now that Suzanne
is more or less perturbed about this
business of the moving picture
rights and has even threatened to
leave the Carlton tournament flat
If the matter isn't quickly adjust
eed. This is just rumor, however.
The, impression prevails that the
whisper of Suzanne's displeasure In
merely a maneuver to whet the
appetite of the representatives of
the news reels here.
Unless the movie men change
their attitude there may be no
movies OF the match. This GER
tainly would not hurt the prestige
of Suzanne, particularly if she
wins. as she is expected to. 1t
would, nevertheless, be a blow to
the pocketbook Of the Burke fam.
