KAPLAN IN TRAINING
Mcridcn Battler RccO,crs From Ill., ness and Will Meet Two OppO- nents This Month.

Dennis McMahon reports that Louis (Kid) Kaplan is working hard for his coming contest at the New Haven arena on Monday, February 13, with Bobby Mays. of New Lon don, holder of the Connecticut light weight championship. Kaplan must win over Mays to hold his standing in the lightweight division. as Mays is not known outside of the state of Connecticut.
 Kaplan is also matched at Roches- ter. New York. with Joe Trabon of Kansas City on February 27. and then later on he may show at Madi- son Square Garden in a return bout with Bruce Flowers. At present Flowers is considered as one of the leading contenders in the east for the lightweight championship, but Kaplan defeated Flowers last year, and the latter must reverse this lone decision he has lost in two years to strengthen his claim for a crack at the title.
 Kaplan is again in good physical shape and intends taking on at least two matches A month until he re- gains the position he held Tn the lightweight division. Among those whom the Meriden Buzz-Saw is anxious to meet are Billy Wallace. Jimmy McLarnin. Sid Ferris and the rest of the lightweight contenders.

CRAWFORD TELLS WHY HE
 FAILED TO JOIN GIANTS
Previous Contract to Coach At Gull. ford College Kept Him From
 Training Camp

New York. Feb. s R-Efforts of Pat Crawford, star third baseman of the Greenville, s. C.. club of the Sally league, to dodge the Giants training camp resulted from a previ- ous contract as coach at Guilford college.
 So Crawford in person has ex- plained to Charles A. Stoneham. owner of the Giants. Crawford de- nied his objection to joining the Giants was because of Sunday base ball, as many reports had it.
 The infielder proposed a weeks trial under John McGraw to decide as to his future. If McGraw con- siders him of big league calibre. he said he would quit as college coach.
 T have made a contract which I believe I should finish, even though 1t keeps me out of a career in which I can make more money" Crawford told Stoneham. That contract would not allow me to join the Giants un- til May IS. What l would like to do is to go to Augusta in March and work for q week under McGraw. If he tells me I have the promise of a big leaguer I will work out my col lege contract and then do as he wishes"
 stoneham said he would communi- cate with McGraw.

SEKYRA AND LOMSKI MAY
 BE MATCHED FOR BOUT
Winner Will Probably Be Given . Chance to Rattle Loughran
 For Championship

New York, Feb. s (UP)-Joe Sekyra of Dayton, O.. and Leo Lom- ski of Aberdeen, Wash, may be matched for light heavyweight elimination bout in Madison Square Garden on March 16 and the win ner given title bout with Tommy Loughran. the champion, Match maker Jess McMahon indicated to- day.
 Jimmy Slattcry. who was to have met Lomski on that date, has been definitely eliminated from the tournament because of his unwilling ness to fight his way into a return bout with Loughran.
 McMahon inferred from the word he received from Buffalo thu. Stat tery regards Lomsk as too to gh an opponent, and consequently for mer will be left out of consideration as a challenger for the 115- pound title.
 The original light heavyweight elimination plans called for the sur vivor to meet Loughran on March 30, but this seems improbable now as the 175-pound titleholder does not return from his South Ameri- can cruise until late this month and he is booked for week in vaude- vile after his return.

CALDWELL X STAR
Yale Gridiron Luminary May De velop Into Much Sought After College Baseball Player.

New York, Feb. 8 UP)-Bruce Caldwell. the Yale football hero, may develop into the much sought after college baseball player of the year before he hangs up his togs in June.
 The Yankees, Senators, Giants and Robins are very interested in Cald- we'll, and it is said that the Yam kees have Caldwell's word that he will let them have priority claim on his services if he elects to play professional baseball.
 Caldwell. however. has been care ful not 10 do anything to injure his amateur sta nding and cause a reoc- currence of the incident which caused him to be barred from the Princeton and Harvard football games last fall. He was barred for having played two games with the Brown freshman in 1928.

"Bib" Boucher of the New Britain Roller Hockey team is out of the game temporarily with infected toes caused by soft corns. The flashy Yorward Of the local quintet was aoout town yesterday wearing a bed room slipper on his left foot. He was unable to get his shoe on. He vas sorely missed in the game with Hartford last night.
 New Britain was beaten in the Capital City but it was only after Hartford played sensational hockey and a terrific battle by the New Britain players. Hartford appeared to have everything coming its way.
 Mertden comes here Thursday night and this should be bitter battle. Meriden fans claim that the third period of last Sundays game went nine minutes overtime in or der to allow New Britain to tie the score and then win in an extra pe- fiod. Boucher may be able to get pack In the game by that time and Meriden will get another good run for its money.
 There ts one thing we would like to see in the roller hockey league and that is an all-Connecticut team. Some city in the state is able to get together combination of Connecti- cut players that chould rate with the best teams iR the league. At the present time, 1t is hard to find many Conneeticut players on the rosters of teams in the American League.
 Lundeville of Meriden is one ex- ample of how players can be devel- oped. He is 8 Merideh boy who started in the amateurs He was placed in the Meriden lineup ald he has done very good since becom- ing a regular on the team.
 There has been plenty of talk about the player situation in the league being closed shop. If this is 80. then it is up to the managers of the various teams to take it upon themselves to develop players from among the ranks of the amateurs playing in the preliminary games.
 In the local league, there are number of boys who give promise of having plenty of hockey talent. Already a movement has been start ed to give youngsters chance. Waterbury has taken former Crosby High school athletic star as the sixth man on it's team. Bristol has secured Eddie McAloon, junior. as the extra man on tho squad.
 More of this would tend to give the game of roller hockey longer life. Predictions have been rife that the game would last only a year or two because the player situation has become such that no more can dtdates for places on the team. with the ability to play along with the veterans. can be found
 Development of youngsters is tho only salvation of the game and the appearance of more and more Con- necticut players in the games played throughout the circuit. would tend to increase the interest of the pres ont fans and make new ones as the years go by. There is food for thought in the suggestion.

DEPEND ON HAHN
 IN THE OLYMPICS
Track Stir Only Hope of This
 Country h Events

New York, Feb. [ RIThe win- ter's track activities make 1t increas- finsly clear that Lloyd Hahn is the only American capable of breaking this country's Jinx in the Olympic middle distance championships this summer.
 Unless Joie Ray stages . success ful comeback. Hahn appears likely to be the only first class miller Uncle Sam will have available for the trip to Amsterdam. Three years ago, Hahn, Ray. Connolly and others all were doing their miles at around 4:15 and occasionally in better time. Ray did 4:12. the present indoor rec ord, and Hahn 4:l2 l-6 in one race.
 But of this group only Hahn has improved. There isn't much room for improvement when . miller gets in- side of 4:13 but the rugged Boston A. A. star stepped his best mile last season in 4:12 1.6. He will make his main bid for | record this win- ter in the Knights of Columbus games here February 2s.
 Hahn has made . show of all his rivals 50 far, including Ray Conger. the national mile cham pion, and the best of the middle distance crop from the east and middle west. He has won eight straight races and should hang up his ninth victory in the Newark A. c. games tonight.
 Only at the half mile is Hahn up against much opposition. Over that route Phil Edwards. the fleet New York university negro star. is cap able of pushing Lloyd. but that is about all.
 Walter Okeson will be the eastern Judge Landis" next fall, exercising Czar-like powers in selection of grid iron officials for most of the leading colleges of this sector.
 Having experimented with the sys- tenn last year and found it satisfac- tory, the group of a dozen institu- tions have opened the doors and in- vited the rest of the college fold to sail under Okeson's banner. The others haven't much choice now that the old central board on officials has been dsbanded.
 It is one of the most important steps in eastern football organiza tion in many years and gives the district centralized authority on officials, rules and other routine comparative to that possessed by the big confer ences in other parts of the country.
