S0NNEVbERG IS
 STILL CHAMPION
King of the Mat Retains Title
 Against Marin Pletina

Boston. May e9 P,-Gus Sonnen- berg still ruled the heavyweight wrestling roost today after one of the most torrid matches of his ca reer, and Martin Plestina, giant Chi cago trust buster" who had cha!- lenged every champion for the past 10 years. was just another con- tender.
 They met in the arena here last night. Twelve thousand customers 1000 of whom stood nearly four sweltering hours on the hottest May cS, in the history of the local wealth. CT bureau. saw the former Dart mouth football player nail his man in successive falls but only after the Italian had taken all Sonnen- berg could offer, excepting only his celebrated and seemingly invincible flying tackle.
 The match required nearly an hour of terrific wrestling. Plestina, who outweighed the champion by almost 50 pounds. proved by far the
 
 ponents Sonnenberg had met since he lifted the title from Ed "strang. Ter" Lewis five months ago.
 His most effective hold was wise. like headlock. He punished Son. nenberg time and time again and during much of the time preceding the first fall the champion was nev. CT out of danger. In the final five minutes of the 45 minutes require. to reach decision, Plestina tired perceptibly.
 The second fall required only 1t minutes and four seconds but wa. featured by rush by Sonnenberf that carried the older man out Q the ring. Plestina landed on th. bottom and was badly shaken. H. had to be lifted back by his seconds and quickly succumbed to the inevi table tackle.

SPORT SEASON IS
 NEARING ITS END
Hi9h School Track and Baseball Teams Ready for Final Games

That the sport season at the New Britain High school is nearing it's end for the present year may be gleaned from the fact that the track team finishes its season Saturday in a meet against the Crosby High school squad of Waterbury and the baseball team plays Bridgeport Gen. tral High school team in the third last game of the season.
 Both of these athletic attractions will be on out-of-town fields. The only game to be played in this city for the remainder of the baseball schedule will be against Hartford High at Willow Brook park Monday afternoon. The last game of the sea- son will be against the New Haven Hillhouse High school nine in the Elm City a week from Saturday.
 Coach Cassidy will probably start the same lineup that for the greater part of the St. Thomas Seminary game played a stellar brand of base ball. ''Hermy' Schmarr has been pitching we'll all season and the team will go into the games determined to win for him.
 Coach Lionel Depot is confident after the track teams wonderful showing that it will take the Water bury team into camp. If he had one or two athletes who were ineligible last week. he said. his team would have defeated Hartford and New Haven Hillhouse in the Triangular meet last Saturday.

(NEA Service Sports Writer)
 When a player has approached his 10th season in the major leagues, if may be assumed, with all fairness intended, that he is nearing the end of his career.
 It may be noticed that there are few regular perform CTS who have been in there day in and day out for more than 10 sea- sons.
 The observation seems especially true of shortstops as a careful check reveals that only Walter Gerber of the Red Sox. Dave Bancroft of the Robins and Rabbit Maranville of the Braves are campaigners of more than a decade. And it isn't dirty crack to say that they're about through.
 It was whispered during the 1928 campaign that little Joe Sewell. who was in his ninth campaign for the Cleveland Indians, was slipping.
 It was said that those short, stocky legs which had carted Sewell around through a streak of 93S successive games were slowing up. that many base hits were being made around sewell which a few years back. he might have fielded for outs.
 There was nothing wrong with his batting. mind you. but-well. a faster man at shortstop seemed nec- |essary.
 It seemed, according to the gab, that Sewell was nearing the end but that was in 1928 and before the little Alabama whammer was shifted from shortstop to third base in the rebuilding process of the Indians under the new millionaire owners. Joe likes third base. Enough to say that he wishes he had been play ing it all his career.
 It isn't that he believes third base easier to play than shortstop for he doesn't compare the two spots ex- cept in this way:
 They're both hard" And there seems new life in him With less territory to guard at his left. he is showing fashy form in going 10 his right and is in on slow I ly hit balls. And he has been field ing in a manner that has won praise around the American league circuit and caused the prediction to be made that the Indians won't need tc worry about a third baseman for 8 few more years
 With the new life in the major! gained from the shift. there exist. a reasonable possibility that sewel will break the record of Everet Scott for play in consecutive games.
 Scott, when he was taken out o the lineup on May 5, 1925, had play ed in 1907 consecutive games.
 Sewell. when he started the 1ae season, had c3s to his credit.
 He usually averages more tha, i3o a season SO it may be assumed l; now that he is going great at thir base. that he will be in there ever day for the Indians in the next thre seasons, And the season of 1881, he is in there every da.-. should SC a new champion for successive day of play.
