DONOVAN ASKS
REFEREE CALL !

The job Of calling the winner
of the Reds" Barry Billy
Schwartz bout at Fort Washing
ton Monday night may fall to the
lot of Referee Charley Short, if
plans of Patsy Donovan and
frankie Mann, managers and
handlers of Barry and Schwartz,
respectively, are carried through.
Donovan suggested yesterday to
Mann that Referee Short, without
the aid of two judges, call the
winner if a decision is necessary.
Mann, although willing enough,
decided that the matter should be
brought up before the athletic
board in control of boxing at the
Fort.
The matter will be taken up
with Captain Pearson, chair
man of the athletic committee,
today by both Donovan and
Mann.
Regardless of whether Don
ovans plan goes through, fans
need have little fear of a raw"
decision even if Fort officials in
sist on two judges in addition to
the referee.
Jim Mcnamara, athletic direc-
tor and boxing coach at the
Jewish Community Center. one
of the best versed men in the
District on ring affairs, and
Patrick F.. O'Connor, prominent
local sportsman, have been Sc
lected as judges.

Kaye Don. British racer, in Miss
England II, was officially de.
clared today to be 177.494 kilo-
meters per hour, or 110.99625
miles per hour.

The racer broke his own record,
which he established earlier in
the year on the Parana River in
Argentina, of 103.49 miles per
hour.
Don came to Garda, the most
beautiful of Italian lakes, to
take part in the regatta spon.
sOred in May by Gabriel
D'AnnunziO, famous poet and
aviator, who lives in seclusiOn
in a villa on the shores Of the
lake. Miss England, however,
developed motor trouble, and
he was unable to participate.
After installing a new engine
last week, Don drove on Saturday
over the first half of the course
at an average speed of 109.43
miles per hour, but motor trouble

Spotted in the Trees

Finally the hour for Sum-
day dinner arrived and Mrs.
Herzog beseeched her husband
to bring in the house guests
from the yard, where they had
been pleasantly passing the
Sabbath.
Thorpe and Maranville were
nowhere to be found. Finally
Buck, hearing a disturbance
among the branches Of a big
maple oak, spotted his two
house guests frolicking from
limb to limb, like a couple OF
chimpanzees.
He implored/ them to come
down and take some solid
nourishment, but they were so
full of liquid refreshments they
didn't wish to be disturbed
from their play. =
Ultimately Buck, who could
think about as fast as any ball
player of his time, and faster
than some Of those Of the pres
ent time, decided he would lure
the two TarZanS to earth by
setting a jug of applejack at
the foot of the tree.

RACE TONIGHT OF CHAMPIONS

KANSAS CITY, March IA.
The Wichita Henrys, defending
champions in the National A. A.
U. basketball tournament, and
the Kansas City Athletic Club
Blue Diamonds will battle it out
here tonight in Convention Hall
for the 1881 title.
Victory by the Henrys over
Los Angeles A. c., and by X. C.
A. C. over Y. M. l., of San
Francisco, in the Semifinals last
night, assures the Middle West
of the crown again this year.
Although the Henrys defeat Of
L. A. A. C. was decisive it was a
surprise considering that the Cali
fornians had defeated the same
Henrys team twice previously this
season, the second as recent as
10 days ago. The final score
was 80 to 20.

Legalized Sunday Ball

For the next hour, the pair
sat in the highest tenable
crotch and drank to the health
of their host, the while Mrs.
Herzoz worried and fretted over
a delightful meal that was fast
becoming cold.
In desperation Buck Scurrled
around, gathered up some rocks,
and tried his level best to stone
his weekend guests out Of the
tree, but they were so high in
the branches all of Herzog'S
darts caromed off limbs before
reaching the targets.
Finally, Buck disappeared
into the house and returned
with a shotgun.
"This1l get 'em down." de-
clared HerzOg, and it did.
He let fly a couple of barrels
of bird shot through the leafy
part of the tree that so startled
the revelers they thought they'd
better come down to earth and
put that drunken Herzog in
the bath tub long enough for
him to sober up sufficiently to
know better than to shoot up
the neighborhood on an other
wise placid Sunday afternoon.
Shortly after that the State
Of New York made Sunday
baseball legal. probably deciding
such a step would keep frivolous
ball players out of mischief and
trees.
The Washington times., 1931-03-14

To we moderns, as it were,
the incident establishes to a
very definite degree the differ
ence in the conduct of baEeball
players of Jim Thorpe's era as
distinguished from the decorum
which abides in the current day
and time.
1t was while Thorpe was with
the Boston Braves along with
that other playboy, Rabbit
Maranville, that Charley Her
zog, one of the best story tellers
of the older school Of ball
players, invited the Indian and
Rabbit to spend the weekend
with him, Sunday baseball be-
ing then unknown in New York
and it being the custom Of ball
players to weekend around at
each others homes, the better
to bend the merry elbow and
otherwise pass the time.

dition can make men run fast, the
curtain will fall on New York's in
door track season tonight amid all
the fanfare and trumpeting that
attends a soul-stirring and cham
pionship performance in the one
mile run.
Four fleet sons of America, al
ready mentioned as this nations
hopes in the distance runs at the
1882 Olympics, will endeavor to
maintain the glory that was
Lloyd Hahn and the grandeur that
was Joie Ray.
The occasion will be the Co
Iumbian mile at the annual
knights of Columbus games,
the final and perhaps climax.
ing event of a brilliant season.
In the order Of their ability
they are Ray Conger, Of the Illi'
nois A. c.; Leo Lermond, of the
Boston A. A.; George Bullwinkle,
of the City College Of New York
and Gene Venzke, Of the Swedish
American A. C. All of them have
done, or can do, so their coaches
say, AIS or better.
It was in the Columbian mile
in past years that Ray turned in
his 4:12 to tie the worlds indoor
record of Paavo Nur1ni, and that
Lloyd Hahn stepped a nifty 4:12.2
the third fastest indoor mile on
record. Never has the Columbian
mile seen time slower than Ais.
