four personals. Erickson then came into his own and kept New Britain out in front by his ability to slip down the floor unnoticed and score easy baskets. Swanson was strong on both the defensive and offensive while ''Huggy" Carlson displayed his usual brilliant game in the back court. Larson, who replaced Nybors. also gave a good exhibition.
 Clifford Branscombe and Allen played brilliantly for the losers and kept their team in the running by their baskets. Allen, who is the coach of the Bulkeley high school athletic teams, was a flash on his feet despite his bulk and age and was the star of his team.
 The game was rough at times especially under the baskets and the players came in for much bodily punishment. New Britain's good work in taking the ball off the back board was the essential reason for itSvictory. The game in New Britain should prove to be furious battle and with the small Y. M. C. A. court the final score will be much in doubt. ,a The S,lnnarV. s'

 In theory, the early part of the baseball season is when the batters have the edge over the pitchers, but the first few days of the 1880 major league campaign have provided an outstanding exception to this rule.
 Few of the scattered games which have escaped the rain and cold so far have brought any heavy hitting while five games, one third of the total number played. have been dis tinot triumphs for the hurlers. Four moundsmen have allowed their op- ponents only three hits and one two hit game turned up yesterday.
 On the opening day, Lloyd Brown of Washington limited the Boston Red Sox to three blows and Lester Sweetland of the Philadelphia Ma tionals repeated the feat against Brooklyn.
 Larry French, Pittsburgh left handler, outdid them all yesterday in holding the Cincinnati Reds to one single and a home run while the Pi- rates drove ancient Eppa Rixey from the mound and gained a to 1 tri- umph. Ethan Allen, Cincinnati out fielder, got the homer in the ninth inning and provided the only occa- sion on which a Red Leg reached second base. French himself took part of the edge off his feat by giv ing five bases on balls.
 Earl Whitehill of Detroit and Pat Malone Of the Chicago Cubs were yesterdays three hit pitchers with the St. Louis representatives the Browns and the Cardinals, as their victims In abbreviated contests.
 At Detroit, the Tigers were stop ped by rain after 1-2 innings but beat the Browns. 6 to 1, on White hills hurlng and homers by Marty McManus and Dale Alexander
 Chicago's Cubs, lacking Rogers Hornsby and Charley Grimm, who were kept out to give slight injuries a rest, scored three times in six in nings while Malone held the St. Louis Cardinals helpless with his speed ball for a shutout victory. Rain stopped the game after the Cubs had scored again in the seventh but the run did not count. Riggs Stephenson was the outstanding Chi cago player, getting home run and two doubles in three trips to the plate.
 The fourth game of the wet day. which saw all eastern games post poned, finally allowed the Chicago White Sox to open their season with a ten inning victory over the Cleve- land Indians, to '. As 25.O00 fans looked on, the Sox staged their one big inning in the sixth to get a half dozen runs off Hudlin and Harder. Cleveland tied it up in the ninth, but in the extra inning Jablonowski walked Cissell and hit Reynolds with a pitched ball and Metzler doubled to bring in the winning run.

 New York, April 1 s CP-In three widely scattered sectors, where each has plenty of room to dash around at top speed. three of the country's foremost college sprinters have be- gun 10 burn up the cinder paths.
 This trio-t'ranll Wykoff of South ern California, Cy Leland of Texas Christian and George Simpson of Ohio State-tigure to furnish most of the years excitement among the undergraduate speed merchants.
 The California Comet, the Texas Tornado and the Buckeye Bullet if they must have these labels-all have the speed and experience to run worlds records ragged along with most of their opposition.
 There arc quite q few others to be taken into consideration in any summary of the sprinting situation such as Eddie Tolan of Michigan, Claude Bracey of Rice, Karl Wilder muth of Georgetown, Jimmy Daley of Holy Cross and the rangy Hec Dyer of Stanford.
 By and large, however, Wykoff Simpson and Leland have turned in the best performances of the carly spring to take the spotlight for the time being in spite of d setback here and there.
 Wykoff, in the opinion of nearly all coast critics, is set for d whirl- wind comeback and his best year since he came east as schoolhoy sensation in 1928 to remain un- beaten through the final Olympic 100 meter trials.
 Illness broke up Wykoff's career for the better part of two seasons. He seems to be fully recovered and fit to carry on the Southern Cali fornia sprint traditions built up over a period of years by Howard Drew, Charley Paddock and Charley Borah.
 Leland, for the first time, has caught up with and passed Bracey as an all-around sprint performer this spring so far as the carly duels between these famous Texas rivals are concerned. One of the foremost halfbacks on the grdiron last fall. Leland is a real contender for na- tional honors.
 Simpson has been somewhat brittle athlete, but when in form the Buckeye Bullet is just about the toughest sprinter in the country to catch.
 His big rival in the middle west is the stocky Michigan negro, Eddie Tolan, who holds the national A. A.. l.. championships. Tolan holds the official American 100 yard record of o.5 seconds, without blocks Smp- son is registered for the fastest time with starting blocks, 9.4 seconds.

Utica Ghost Predicts That He
 Will Put Champ Away.

Hartford, April 1S--Bushy Gra- ham, the Utica Ghost, who battles Bat Battalino, worlds featherweight champion in a ten rounder at the big state armory in Hartford Friday night, may or may not have the champion on the floor, but he pre- diets that he will and points in sup pert of this prediction to having done just that several times wit:l fighters fully as eminent as the Hartford champion.
 Only last summer Bushy floore l no less a worthy than Kid Choco- late, not once but twice, only to lose or a foul in the seventh round and he had Bud Taylor, the Terre Haute Terror who recently outpointed Bat out at Detroit, on the floor four times when they met in 1925, when Taylor was at the peak of his career.
 Another more or less distinguish cd member of the boxing family who was crashed to the floor when he collided with Graham was Abe Attel Goldstein, former worlds ban t2mweight champion.
 Graham has never been generally rated a killing puncher, but his record shows twenty-six knockouts iD 103 fights. He is sharp hitter and tie past year, one of the be st in his long career, has found hirl scoring repeated knockouts.
