 The sudden rejurenation of the Jersey City Blackcats has frightened up the International League race all along the line. Only four game: now divide the league leading Buf- falo Bisons and Jersey City and Montreal which are tied for last place.
 Behind the sensational pitching of Maurice Braam, the Blackcats de fcated Rochester yesterday, l 10 q in II innings and stretched their winning streak to three straight In their last three games, Jersey Clty's pitchers have allowed only six runs and @ hits.
 Bream and John Berly staged a great pitchers battle for eight in nings but Beryl suffered a spl:t finger in catching a ball thrown b} his catcher in the ninth and had to retire. He gave up only siy hits h the S1-3 innings he pitched. Pan! Derringer took over the IitChinp burden and was nicked for ure win ming run in the 11th when Bobby Veach's double was followed by q single by Julian Vera. Ironical,y enough, they were the only two his Derringer allowed.
 Buffalo frightened it's hold on the league lead by pounding five Real ing tHirlers for 22 hits and a r. to victory Rochester piled up q 4 to 2 in the first four innings and then Coasted all the rest of the way. Leon Mangum went the route for Buffalo although he was touched for Is hits including pair Of home runs. a double and single by George QuelliCh. Tucker, Sax and Hawks hit homers for the Bsons. Sax tr safely in each of the first four in nings, getting two triples, a homo run and q single.
 Behind fine pitching by Marty Griffin, the Montreal Royals easily battered out 9-1 triumph over Newark. Griffin allowed only six hits. one being Harry Layne's fourth homer Of the year in the first in ming. The Royals found Fischer an Printchard for ten safeties includ- ing homers by Gautreau and Head
 Baltimore and Toronto had an off day, but the Orioles took advantage of their holiday to whip the New York Yankees, 87, in an exhibition game.

|G0LF TEAM LOOKS ID TITLE TOURNEY
Glenna COllett and Mates Pre-
 pairing for British Championship

Sunningdale, England, May tP- Beaten in their first competition abroad. Glenna Collett and her American women golfing comrades now have their eyes fixed on the British women's championship, which will be played at Formby the week of May 12.
 Miss Collett's team yesterday bowed to a picked English squa d headed by Molly Gourlay, eight matches to six with one halves, but the Americans made a surprisingly good showing in view of the fact that they had arrived in England only two days previously. If anything were needed 10 prove that the invaders had needed more time 10 get rid Of their sea legs. the brilliant showing of Maureen Or cut, Englewood, N. J., star provided it. Miss Orcutt, who preceded the rest of the team by q week, not only defeated her singles opponent, Mrs. U. B. Watson, 4 and 3, but paired with Mrs. H. A. Martell Of Hartford, Conn, to win in foursomes from Dorothy Pearson and Phyllis Lobett, = and 6.
 Miss Collett herself was beaten in both singles and foursomes. She lost to Miss Gourlay, 1 up. in a tight match in singles and with Marian Bennett Of New Britain. Conn. bow ed to Miss Gourlay and Enid Wilson in the foursomes, 4 and 3.
 All r members Of Miss Collects team will play in the British cham pionship as will five other Ameri- cans, the most noted of whom is Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd of Philadelphia.

1 can gam without losing his balance. His get set motion is q snap mo- ton acquired through many hours ot practice and one that gets him of his marks without the loss Of an in stant.
 At the sound of the gun, Simp- sons long legs drive him forward at almost a 45 degree angle while his right arm drives up level with his chin and his left comes back strong ly. Every athlete soon learns that strong leg stride must be matched by an equally vigorous arm action. The shoulder development in Simp- son is TO mean factor in his start and powerful running.
 Body Leans Forward
 Simpsons full stride Is almost yi- clous. a pounding, springy expres- sion Of speed that is joy 10 the fol- lowers of the sport. At top speed, his stride measures approximately nine feet and his body leans for ward at an agle of about 50 degrees.
 simpson never spares himself in a race, never "coasts" in d final and probably would not know how to take 1t easy if he were told to do do so. It is the ferceness of his drive that probably has caused the pulled tendons Of the Olympic trials and the National Collegiate cham plOnships.

Tomorrow will mark the opening Of the New Britain high school base ball season and the first opponent of the year will be New Britain's most bitter athletic rival, Hartford high. The contest will be staged in this city, probably at Willow Brook park.
 The edge is taken off the contest because of the fact that Hartford high has not been shaping up as strong this season as it had in past years. On the other hand. however. New Britain will be getting it's first test under real fire and there 1' plenty of speculation about the real strength Of the team.
 New Britain has q group of base ball talented candidates out for the team and although Coach George NJ Cassidy hasn't finally decided on his starting lineup he has plenty of material from which to pick.
 Owing to the fact that Herny Schmarr is suffering from q sore arm. the starting pitcher is doubt full but this loss has been somewhat offset by the fact that Partyka has returned 10 the fold after a year away from school and he will prob ably see plenty Of mound duty this year.
 Hartford has made very poor shoWings in it's first few games this year but Coach John Newell declares that the team has talent strength that hasn't yet fully developed. He is counting on his charges to come through tomorrow and win its first victory with New Britain as its vic tim. The game promises to develop into a battle before 1t is finished.
 The contest will start at 2;3o n 'clocL,
