QUARTERS. April 16.--Cold
weather, accident and illness are
interfering with the major league
baseball season.
Already low temperatures have
brought postponement of six
games.
At Philadelphia yesterday Harry
Riconda, Braves third baseman,
suffered a fractured right leg in
a slide into the plate. He is like
ly to be out Of the game for some
time.
At st. Louis the veteran
umpire, Hank" O'Day, was strick.
en- with appendicitis just before
the start of the game and was sent
to a hospital. With the Brook
lyn-New York, Chicago Cincin-
natl, Yankees-Red Sox and Cleve-
iand-Detroit games postponed on
account of cold, the Philadelphia
elE0s claimed attention. The Ath-
ietics turned on the American
league champion Senators after
two defeats and slugged out a 8
to 3 victory, while the Phillies
continued in their winning frame
of mind and downed the Braves
B to a.
II was day of experiment for
the managers eager for vindication
of winter trades. The Braves
started George Mogridge, former
ly of the Senator's, and he went to
the showers before the first in
ming had been completed. Wash
ington tried Joe Bush, but he also
failed, so did Zachary, wheny ne
attempted to lofficiate for he
Browns.
Joe PATE, a 32-year-old rookie
from the Texas league, allowed
only 2 hits in O 2-3 innings af-
ter relieving Baumgartner against
Washington. The champions
made five errors in their first de.
feat Of the season..
The White Sox displaying I'M
expected hitting power, trimmed
the Sisters IL to 4. Bats Of the
Collins' squad together with their
efrofless performance gave Ted
Blankenship an easy time.
Cy Williams was the hero Of
the Phillies third straight con-
quest. Rushed into the contest
In the ninth inning with three on
the bases he belted homer. IT
was his second of the season. His
was the second time in the young
season that a pinch hitter had de-
liyered home run, Jimmy john
ston Of the Braves having shot out
a long blow that was all in vain
on opening day.
Vie Keen, formerly Of the Cubs,
went to the mound for the Card
inals and returned with Hornsby's|
second victory Of the year over
the champions, to 0. Hornsby
regained the batting eye that he
had lost on Wednesday and ham,
mered out a double and two
singles.

EXPERT AND DUFFER
Breaking 100 Is The Ambition Of
 Both The star And The Common
 Dub And Just As Hard For Each.

Chicago. Jan. o9 tPl -- Breaking 100 is as much the goal of the great est golf experts as it is for the yer jest duffer at the game, and the star finds his objective just as difficult to attain. The difference lies in the fact that the champion wants to cover 27 holes In 100 while the gar den variety of linksman desires only to score that number of strokes for I1S holes.
 How much more difficult for ex- pert's goal is Of attainment, Is shown by the fact that only in few Instances and under favorable cir lcumstances has a star performer to- tailed 1nN for c7 holes. Bobby Jones turned the trick at Youngstown in Ithe final day Of the western open to finish runner-up to Macdonald Smith. and there have been a few other instances. Almost invariably. these scores have been recorded on links that were pronounced compor- atively easy.
 There is no disgrace in the ability of the stars to reach this goal, for lit means that they must average three strokes or four to the hole on
 each nine. To do this they must
 acquire a dozen hirdies and probab- ly a couple of eagles for their cards

HELEN STARTS TO
 SMASH BALL HARD
Demonstrates a Variety Of
 Strokes to Large Gallery

Cannes, Jan. 2s Pl--Helen Wills apparently has adopted the sugges- ton of Big Bill" Tiden to Knock the cover off the ball." The girl from California yesterday in one of her matches at the Gallia tourna- mcnt showed Miss Cadle. her oppon- ent, a brand of speed, and with it accuracy of placement, that even tho strong arm of Mrs. MolIa Mallory probably was unable 10 work up in her championship days.
 Tilden expressed the belief that only by shooting the ball with sizz- ling speed could Helen possibly overcome the crafty Suzanne Leng- len, Keen observers of the game here have expressed the same opin- ion. And yesterday after. having won from Mile Rosine Vlasto so, 6-2, in a placid, unconcerned man lner, Helen unlcashed a burst of speed and strength and variety of strokes that overwhelmed the Eng fish girl and left her swinging at the wind with her racquet.
 ' The American champion won the match 60, 6-2. In the morning against Nile Vlasto she wore pale green sweater, which matched the characted Of her game. Tn the after noon the University of California girl had on for the first time q car dinal red sweater the color of her rival seat Of learning, Leland Stan ford.
 In this sweater Miss Wills un- corkcd the best tennis she ever has shown in Europe. She literally tore in against the English girl anc smacked every ball as though sht desired to burst it, accompanying
 every stroke with the college vel

 fore had she ever taken such chanc
 es at outs nets. Observers though
 that no woman player would hav'
 been able to return some of he
 placements. The only weakness sh'
 showed was in her overhead game
 Owing to the splendid showing il speed and strength made by Mis

FIGHT OVER RESIN
 LOOMS IN LEAGUE
Heydler in Favor Of Allowing Pitchers to Use the Substance

New York, Jan. go R-Resin, q necessary to violinists, pugilists and trapeze performers, threatens 10 raise a whirling cloud Of dust in the realm of baseball,
 Tho matter of re-introducing the sticky substance to the national game will come before the annual session of the baseball rules officials here today, President Heydlcr of the National league, seeking to curb the steadily mounting destruction of baseballs in major league play, has recommended that the foreign sub stance 'be made available to pitch CTS that they may better control the ball.
 Heydler would have bag of resin placed within reach Of the boxmen during the game, 10 be dealt out at the discretion Of the umpires. Cn- ! der present conditions when a pitch CT throws two or three wild ones in a row a new ball is called for and the old one, to all intents and purposes, goes out of major leagues.
 The proposal came forth during the meetings of the leagues here in December and there was an effort Ito gain the American leagues In Iterest. One manager, former major league performer, declared that the
 Use Of resin would bring back all the tricks of pitching that had made the
 game dangerous before foreign sub

When a tccm is Of such caliher that 1t can take the Atlas Of New Haven and heat them on the New Haven floor, ,hrn surely 1t is some team.

Last n.sht's game played at the Y. W. C. A., could not be duplicated for long time to come. The Hart ford team had as good an aggrega- ton of basketball players as could be gotten together on any floor and when the Legion quintet beat them. they did more than they did against the Dixies last week.

There Is certainly some reason tor lack of support accorded this outfit. Whether 1t Is the Y. W. C. A.. the location of the hall, the day of the week. dislike of the Legion or the players or something else, Is question that will have to be de- cided if the Legion team Is 10 con- tinue. It certainly cannot be the brand of basketball the Legion five is giving the public nor can it be tho quality of mvsic furnished for dancing. Whatever 1t Is, 1t is killing n team that promses, if it stays to- gether, 10 become the leading team in this ely in a few more years.

Nevertheless, one thing is sure. A team that drops the money that the Legion team has dropped in its games this season, cannot go OH for long and If the committee in charge decides 10 quit, 1t will be doing the right thing. No action has been talk cn by the Legion post about the matter and 1t may be that the team will try to stick out the season. If it does, the public should support it In the interests of good sport If for no other reason.
