WALKER WINS
BOXING CROWN
FROM FLOWERS
Referees Decision Not Sec

crs. the praying deacon from the

welterweight title, but the referee
decision hast night was not seconded
bv many scribcs at the rngsldc.
Most Of the fight critics believed
that Flowers had the best OF the ~
round bloody argument in the historic
Coliseum, although Walker was GO
ing strong in the closing rounds and
had the Georgian on the mat N the
ninth.
A. any rate. the two will meet AGAIN
within 90 days, under an agreement
.rranped before the fight and for
which Jack kearns, manager OF the
new champion, posted forfeit OF seo'-

Flowers manager expressed the be-
lief that the Tiger was entitled to
The victory, but said the decision was
given in good faith.

honors. Flowers received hall IN
rate receipts. less 10 per cent I" IN
state commission. while Walker
share was 10 per cent.
The fight was remarkably fast froi
the start. In the last two round
Walker staggered the Tiger at ieas
twice. and once put him flat on ~
back This latter episode occurred
the ninth round, but Flowers made i
acrobatic recovery 10 an upright pos
ton.

Walker was at disadvantage fro'
the fourth round on. when Flower
opencd IN i cut over Mickcy's le
eve. Blood trickled from this cut du

Nevertheless Walker kept TO II

At times Mickey was oat-scor'

INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE
Baltimore Under Direction of Jack Dunn Again Favored To Win Pen nant For Seventh Year.

New York. April 14 (Pt-Hopes of several clubs in the International league this year arc strong. but they can be no more than hopes for Jack Dunn and his Baltimore Orioles have romped away with pennants for the past six years. The league season starts today.
 Toronto, where Dan Bowlev han dies an overflow from the Detroit Tigers, appears to be the best fitted to battle the 1926 team of Dunn. HoWloy has lost three players of his 1923 array but he has added pitchers of calber from Detroit and indications are that the team has hcen strengthened. Meanwhile Bal timore depends on the pennant-win- ming squad of last year.
 Jersey City, q receiving station for Brooklyn recruits. also is regarded as powerful. Last season the club went out of the running in mid-sea - son. Rochester will depend for the most part on recruits while Buffalo is uncertain. Newark is starting q club that is untested. Syracuse has obtained pitching strength from the St. Louis Cardinals while Reading, last place club in 1925 starts with q makcshift outfit.

CORBIN RED SOX
 ORGANIZE AGAIN
Bill Clancy to Direct Team Play
 From the Bench This Season
.

Tine Corhin Red Soy baseball team 0ill organi2c for the 1928 season and will schedule games for this year, &C., cording to a vote take at an organi- zation meeting in th" '. NJ. (. A. last night Practically all the mcm- b"rs Of last years nine and several new and promising candidates at tended the session and all were en- thusiastic over tho teams chances for the coming year.
 Manager John Tobin reiterated his decision to quit active work on the field at the meeting and although the players regretted that ho found 1t necessary to leave the pilots posi- ton. they welcomed his offer to take care of booking games and the finances of the team as he had in the past.
 Bill Clancy was elected 10 direct the play of the team from the bench. Bill is a veteran of the diamond, having appeared for years in semi pro ranks in this city until he de- cided to stop active work, but his knowledge of the game is profound and he will be q worthy successor to Tobn in generalship.
 The team will probably gets It's first practice at Walnut Hill park Saturday afternoon if the weather permits. Most of the players are anxious and eager to start things and as the nine will probably swing into action either the last part Of this month or the first Of next month, all are eager 10 get out to start swatting the pill and throwing the ball around. Of the new faces seen at the meeting last night, Joe Jackson is one who plans to try out for the team. Joe has been in the diamond limelight in this city for number of years and is rated as one of the best all-around players in the city
 Judging from the enthusiasm shown last night when even "Micky" Huber, victorious at the polls in his iufSL bpl h 'ollSiubl' btI LII, " uo there the Red Sox will be very much in the swim again this year. The team coppcd the championship Of the city last year and a drive to- wards that goal will be made again this year. There will he hardly any changes In the team, it is expected, though all candidates will be given an opportunity 10 show their wares before the squad is settled upon. The members present voted last night also 10 cooperate as much as will be possible with the Industrial | league which seems a certainty at the present time. For this reason, ! there will be no Saturday afternoon i games blocked. This was decided on | because most of the players on the Corbin Red SoX baseball team will be members of the Industrial league teams and with the Sox playing Sat urday baseball. they would be sorely missed in the Industrial scheduled games. The team, therefore, will confne itself to Sunday and holiday ! games. This spirit of cooperation
 will be welcomed by all who arc in 1 terested in the team.

(BY JOE WILL1AMS1

St. Augustine. Fla. April li.-- They call Helen Wills the poker face Of tennis. Well. step up and meet the poker face of golf little Virginia Van Vie Of Chicago.
 There are a number of reasons why you should meet little Nir- ginia, the foremost of which, per haps, is that she seems destined 10 be the new girl prodigy Of golf,
 Little Virginia is only 11 years old, yet she is fresh from one of the most stirring triumphs on the links, q 19-hole victory over Gcnna Col lett, national champion of the women.
 This startling performance vas 1 stitched into 'hc early season 8 records here the other day whcn the -shouldered, mannsh looking youngstcr took the national cham pion over the bunkers in the finals of the Florida east coast champion ship.
 There was nothing fukey about her triumph either. She matched the champions long snots off the tee. She matched her long irons 10 the green. She matched her short approaches. And she more than matched her putting,
 No veteran compaigncr ever went about his task with greater poise and nerve restraint than did little Virginia in winning her first i'm portant tournament.
 The fact she was opposing the best woman golfer in America meant nothing in her brief career. She was as nervclcss as Walter JohnoSn pitching to q rookie from the Three Eye league.
 This is one of her winning cards in golf-~-a card that is destined 10 capture a lot of notable tricks for her.
 They tell an amusing story about her debut in competitive gol( last summer when she qualified for play in the womcns western. She drew Mrs. Dave Gaut Of Memphis, former southern and western titliSt, and a mighty formidable player. The two battled on even terms all the way. The match was decided on the homo green. I.ittlelAirginia Shank"d her approach shot and the lost stroke cost her 'hr hole and match, Was she rcrturbed? Not in the least.
 Turning 10 her caddy she said: Give mo my magazine, Now can so over in the shade and finish that story started this morning"
 Incidentally, Gionna CoIl"tt thinks the Chicago miss, her conqucror, i, the coming golfer of tho new school
 She has a remarkably will de vcloped game from ice 10 cup" say! the champion, and 10 back it III she has an amazing fighting tom perament don't sec. .how she car possibly fail

RUTH STARTS WITH
 LOTS OF TROUBLE
Hits Heavy While Process SerV-
 CTS Wait Outside for Him

Boston. April fl LP'--Babo Ruth started tho 1926 big league season with q varied harvest
 The home run aluggcr came to Boston with the Tanks yesterday and before the sun had set, gathered in, among other things, two doubles, q single. a steal and three runs. That was at Fcnnway park where the New York team was beating tho Boston Red SoX, 12-ll.
 But elsewhere the Bambino was sought by Massachusetts income tax officials, and just when he succeeded in staving off service of warrants for tax delinquency. he emerged to find his automobile tagged.
 The tax difficulty concerned his Sudbury, Mass, farm and state off, eials explained that they had no record of payment from one George Herman Ruth for the years 1923 and 24, the Babe demurrcd and was al- lowed q week 10 flo q statement in support Of his contention that he was not q Massachusetts resident. The tax collectors office said, however, that the erstwhile home run king had not claimed legal residence in any other state.
 Ruth left collection headquarters only to find that the five minutes'' he had thought would suffice to transact his legal business had heightened into two hours. A traffic policeman had tagged his machine.
 The Babe was plainly perturbed. The traffic officer relented when Ruth made known his identity and 1 explanation but the Slugger's feel ing had been clearly rufflcd. He re- fused to be appeasod and turned down anxious reporters and photographers cold. The Babe had enough interviews for one day.
