PRESENT GOLF BALL
 SURE TO PASS OUT
 AFTER 1881 SEASON

New York, June 23.-(UP)-Op- position to the new balloon" ball, which the United States Golf asso- citation forced upon American golf CTS, has reached a stage of open re- volt and further change in the ball before the opening of the 1882 sea- son virtually is assured
 Although no official announcement is forthcoming from U. s. G. A. headquarters-othe than the state ment that a survey is being made. As to the effects of the new ball and that results of the survey will be made public when completed-it is rumored that the association already has decided upon an entirely new ball.
 On the Way.
 The official announcement proD- ably will be made shortly after the 1881 national amateur tourney and is expected to sound the death kneii for the generally despised balloon ball. The new ball, it is said, will be as large as the present unpop- ular spheroid, but as heavy as the discarded ball of 1881. and will com bine the best features of each.
 Balls of various sizes, makes and weights are being tested by the C' s. G. A. and Bobby Jones has been engaged to try out new balls Tor a. nationally known sporting goods firm. These activities indicate that the association realizes that it over reached itself in setting up the bal loon ball as the standard for 193i' and now plans to make amends.

PERLICK YET TO FEEL KNOCKOUT
 IN RING CAREER

New Haven, June 23.-Herman Perlick. the Kalamazoo twin who moved into New Haven yesterday to finish up his training for Tony Cam zoneri, three time champion of the world has never lost by a knockout. It has never been his lot to take It on the chin, flop to the deck, and listen to the birdies instead of to the referee. They meet at the White City Stadium, Savin Rock, Thursday night.
 And right. now a lot of the ring worms are asking themselves and other less important people the question of whether or not Perlick has steered himself into a spot to experience the sensation of a knock out. It is recognized by most of the fans that Herman Perlick is quite a scrapper and his tangles with big shots in the ring world gave plenty of evidence of his prowess. ,-
 In His Prime.
 On the other hand this Canzoneri boy has been stepping high. wide and handsome of late and it may be in his fists to clip Herman and keep him clipped. It is to be re- membered that he breezed into the lightweight championship by knock ing out Al Singer in single round that he followed the title winning feat by dropping Joey Kaufman for keeps in the opening canto. and that Jack Kid Berg was out of the hght after four roundns. That Berg bout gave Canzoneri his third title-he held both the lightweight and junior welterweight crowns now-and a couple of years back he was tn" king of the feathers in a short time.
 In the semi-final Henry Perllck meets Jerry Emar dof Holyoke, Mass, for eight rounds.

HORSE ACTION KEEN AT CARMEL RACE
 TRACK EVERY WEEK

Carmel, N. Y., June 23.-Four heats were necessary to decide the Class A Trot and Pace in which the fastest trotters and pacers in train- ing participated at the driving park here on Saturday last. The Dean and Waymart both trotters and the Precept, a pacer, each won heat successively. In the final heat the Dean won the race. the Precept coming in 8 close second. Waymart broke badly in the heat to the great disappointment of the race fans who again attended in large numbers. In horses went the half in the fast time of 1904, but apparently through lack of work at this early stage of the racing season tired badly and finished the mile in 2:12%. Al Maxey, another fast pacer whose 1930 performance promised new rec ords for this season was drawn from this race but paced an exhibi- tion heat. In the third race which also was a mixed trot and pace, Sir Zandt, the 19 year old "Wonder Horse" took three straight heats, the fast est by 2:15, but in each heat the horse was under wraps at the fin- ish.
 AS the season advances all the horses in training continue to inn prove as is evidenced by the time shown in Saturdays races. The slowest time of the day was 2:24%. The summary of Saturdays races follows:
