MANDELL NEXT
FOR Al SINGER

NEW YORK, May 24-The
house Of Singer stood avenged to-
day-avenged because of a cruel,
darting left, and zooming right
that came from nowhere to land
squarely and cleanly on a bat
tered Filipino profile.
The left and right belonged to
AL Singer, prince of the house of
Singer. The profile belonged to
Ignacio Fernandez. The result
a blood-Spattered, mis-shapen
face, and a complete erasure Of
the memory of that night year
ago when Fernandez unlooSed a
wild right that gave Singer the
only knockout blot of his record.
Singer and his encourage were
not the only happy ones who left
Madison Square Garden last
night. Among the more joyous
ones list one Tom McArdle,
matchmaker for the Eighth
Avenue institution.

ROMPS
To TRACK TITLE.

Taking up where they left off
last year, only doing better and
more decisive job of it, Eastern's
track team romped home with its
second successive track champion
ship without even being pressed.
The final score found Eastern
with 66 1-3 points, while Central,
which pulled mild surprise in
noSing out Tech, finished second
with % 1-3. Tech got 25 points,
while Western scored / l-3.
The individual laurels for the
day were captured by Bobby Slye,
Eastern's half-pint hurdler. who
captured three first places, in
one of which he established a new
record. This was in the 120-yard
high hurdles, which he negotiated
in 16 is seconds, bettering the
old mark by three-fifths Of a
second. Bobby also led the way
home in the 220-yard low hurdles,
and then topped off his days
work by capturing the broad
| Jump with a leap of 20 feet Az
inches.
The other new record was
made by Conrad Allison, East
ern'S javelin expert, who
tossed the spear 162 feet 2
inches. Russell LampSOn, of
Central, and Long, of East
ern, who finished second and
third, also surpassed the old
mark.
Eddie Quinn, Techs bespec-
tacled sprlnter, tied the 100-yard
dash record in winning his heat
in 10 flat. He later won the
event in 1925. Jimmy Reilly,
of Central. was second in both
the 100 and 220-yard dashes,
finishing just behind Quinn in
the century, while Hinkel, team
mate, led him to the tape in the
furlong.
One of the prettiest races Of
the day developed in the half-mile
when Frank Miles and Al Reich
man staged a pretty duel down
the stretch to the wire, with
Reichman'S kick predominating
The latter also ran nice leg in
the mile relay when he held an
advantage over Chester Miles to
the end. Previously Miles had
won the mile race.
/ George Brandt, of Central, won
his fourth monogram for the
year by taking a second place in
the discus, having already won
his letters in football, basketball
and baseball.

been criticised for not training
more strenuously, Max Schmeling
planned only few rounds Of
boxing today, following a two
day rest. He will box only few
rounds today and tomorrow.
Lack of excess weight was given
as the reason for the Germans

Associated Press Sports Writer.

w YITH the flagpole parades and
M other opening-day cere-
v monies out of the way for
another year, major league
base ball players now are ready to
settle down to the serious business of
trying to keep runners parading across
the plate during the next 1873 games
of the season. Only one opening is
left for today. The Chicago White
SoX and Cleveland Indians were STOP
ped by rain at Chicago yesterday.
Cold and rainy weather held down
the size of some of the opening day
crowds, but the 100000 fans who wit
messed yesterdays games found no rea-
son for disappointment. There was a
little bit of everything, including the
unexpected, taking place.
The two champions of 1929, the Phila-
delphia Athletics and Chicago Cubs, re-
Sumed their places at the top of the
standings with victories over the New
York Yankees and st. Louis Cardinals,
respectively.
The Athletics, behind the brilliant
pitching of Lefty Grove, gained 6-to-2
victory over the Yankees with COM
parative ease. Grove yielded only six
mons and Max Bishop collected the
runs Simmons, holdout until noon
yesterday, hit home run his first time
at bat. Bishop crossed the plate three
times. Babe Ruth missed getting his
first homer of the year when the ball
struck a radio amplifler on top of the
outfield wall and dropped back for
double.
The Cubs engaged in a clouting duel

Also a ball thrown overland gains
an extra impetus when it hits and does
not die as side arm balls often do.
Always throw on a line and bounce
the ball to the catcher or inf1elder to
whom you are throwing, unless the
throw is a very short one.
A rainbow" throw that reaches the
catcher on the "fiy" never catches a
base runner.
Do not make a useless throw to the
plate when your team is several runs
ahead. Let the run score and throw to
second base and keep the batter on first
where he cannot score on a single.
