BOB 0'FARRELL TRADED
 FROM CARDS TO GIANTS
St. Louis Fans Almost as Puzzled Over Shift as Over HOrnsby
 Deal

St. Louis, May II UP)-Follow- ing in the footsteps of his predeces- sor. Bob O'Farrell, 1927 manager of of the St. Louis Cardinals, has been traded to the New York Giants just as was Rogers Hornsby.
 O'Farrell, provided the physical abilities that kept him from re- cent games may be overcome, will go for the veteran outfelder, George Harper. The trade became known last night.
 St. Louis fans were almost as pug zled over this sudden shift of the popular OFarrell as they were two years ago when Hornsby. who led the Cardinals to their first cham pionship, was suddenly sent to New York in exchange for Frankie f'risch and Jimmy Ring. However, in the Hornsby case it was known he wanted much more money and was not in full accord with some Of the officials of the Cardinals. But there have been few, if any hints, that OFarrcll wasn't getting on.
 l The chubby O'Farrell came to the ! Cardinals several years ago in a trade that took Mike Gonzales and | Howard Frcigau to the Chicago Cubs. Bob immediately became pop ular because of his willingness and | his general all around ability. He
 was rated as one of the best catch CTS in the National league.

HARVARD CREW IS
 FAVORED IN RACE
0arSmen Proved Their Strength
 Last Saturday

Cambridge, Mass, May II (P - A strong Harvard varsity which has proved its strength against the Massachusetts Institute of Tech biology crew definitely occupied the favored place in advance dope which sought 10 settle the outcome of tomorrow's triangular regatta on the Charles in which the Crimson will strive against both Tech and Cornell.
 Harvard's defeat of the Engineers last Saturday was fairly close but not close enough to leave much doubt that unless Tech could show greater staying qualities than in that race 1t was likely to face forced abandonment of its Olympic ambi- tions.
 Cornell on the other hand, was . genuine dark horse. Tomorrow's test will be the first of the season for Jimmy Wray's men. Only a man or two in the shell will be veterans of the last eight coached by Lueder, Wray's predecessor at Cornell. An other factor whose bearing on the outcome seems difficult to predict is that Cornell is using for the first time the Pocock racing shell. So along with the greater part of its personnel, Cornelrs stroke. rigging boat and oars are all new to com- petition.
 The Ithacans arrived in town yesterday and were able to get in some practice. Reports from Cor nell were that although the crews had gone out earlier this year than in some time past. the month of April had produced little favorable weather and the squads frequently worked in rough water. But this was not considered too great a handicap since the turbulence of the Charles basin is notorious.
 Harvard's varsity is the heaviest in the history of Crimson racing. It weighs 1,504 pounds and although hefty and inclined to be slow on the getaway has demonstrated its ability to pick up speed handily especially over the full distance.
 Tech has lost to Navy and Prince ton in early season tilts but both times by surprisingly close margins and experts have been unwilling to count the Engineers out of the pic ture until the finish line has been crossed.
 Beside the varsity contests. the 15o pound and freshmen crews of all three institutions will participate in Saturdays regatta.

SCOTT TO BATTLE
 R0BERTI TONIGHT
Bout With Jack Sharkey Awaits
 Winner Of Engagement

New York, May 11.-Phil Shilling Scott, who abandoned the pursuit Of l london fires to drape the great caulifower canvas, will be examined concerning his shock qualities tonight when he meets the ungainly, 2co-pound man, Roberto Eoberti from Italy.
 A bout with Jack Sharkey. the revitalized Lithuanian, awaits the winner Of this ten-round engage ment in Madison Square Garden.
 Scott has been seeking to re- establish the prestige of English heavyweight boxing-whatever that may ho--since his unfortunate debut and his knockout at the hands Of the none too durable Dane. Knute Hansen.
 Since that lamentable beginning, the former fire ladde has not been permanently perpendicular during his fights. but he has acquired a trick of bouncing from the canvas before even a fairly agile time keeper can arrive at the count Of ten.
 Being quite a boxer Scott can out point most second raters who do not tack him to the canvas prompt ly and permanently. It is not be- leved that Roberti can do the trick
 Roherti has been coming steadily 10 the fore over the prostrate bodies oe ham and beaners. A giant of a man. standing some six feet four and weighing his 2oo on the hoof, he is possessed of tremendous right hand punch. Before he de- livcrs said punch, however. the youngster announces it's impending arrival by dustins off his heel, mak- ing it possible for reasonably agile opponent to depart to a place of safety.
 There Is this 10 be remembered in connection with Scott. He has two victories over Tom Heeney tc his credit. Yet Tex Rickard tells Us that Hceney Is the outstanding heavyweight challenger of the year a worthy opponent for Gene Tunney
 "I shall jolly well be in there fighting for the title myself some day" says Phil. who takes himself and his profession quite seriously.
 Tex Rickard has gathered quite 6 little league of nations at the Gar. den for his cash customers theo' retical entertainment this evening In addition to Scott. the English. man, and Roberti. the Italian. there will be Rudi Wagner. the German heavyweight, boxing Big Boy Peter son. the Swede, and Pierre Charles the Belgian versus Arturo De Kuh a countryman of Roberti.
 The promoter will tilt an un lighted cigar and cock a critical ey, at this polyglot gathering. hopefu of spying the man who may, nex season perhaps. lend the interna tional flavor to the battle for tn, worlds heavyweight championship in 1929

STAR VAULTERS ID
 MEET AT HARVARD
Interesting Duel Expected Be-
 tween Carr and Barnes

New York May II (P) - Three of the countrys finest pole vault CTS, all of them virtually certain of berths on the American Olympic team, will swing into action in the championships at Harvard stadium May 2526.
 Past performances indicate an interesting duel up around 14 feet between the defending champion, Sabin Carr of Yale and Lee Barnes of the University of Southern Cali fornia, the 1924 Olympic titlehold CT.

 Barnes has learned from bitter reach ones peak too soon. He won the Olympic pole vault title in 1924. when he was only IS years old. The following year he entered Southern California so that his first varsity experience in the intercol- leeiates was in 1926. He had work ed strenuously that spring-sc strenuously. in fact, that he found himself stale at Cambridge and his best leap was 12 feet, inches. Tho title went to Carr at 13 feet, two inches.
 Last year the coast star agair failed in his quest for the inter. cole giate crown for Carr. in phe nomenal form. leapcd IA feet, three inches higher than Barnes. Since h. cleared more than IA feet, Barne! has practiced sparingly.
 Asked how it felt 10 reach sucl 3 height. Barnes said:
 'It felt rather funny. principal, l because 1 had been trying so lonj ! to get over that height. You see | it's a matter of timing and pulin; and when the bar is so high. vol ! have 10 wait a long time before vol 1 begin 10 pull in earnest"
