REDS GIANTS.
MAY TRADE

NEW YORK, May 21.-Dan
Howley. energetic manager of
the Cincinnati Reds, said today
that he hopes to swing deal
with the New York Giants to-
day before the Cincinnati club
concludes its Eastern trip and
starts westward.
With six of their best men
on the shelf due to injuries, the
Reds are badly crippled and How
ley is making desperate efforts
to patch up his lineup. He con-
ferred with John McGraw for an
hour last evening and will talk
trade with the boss of the Giants
again this afternoon.
The injured Redlegs are Harry
Heilmann and Nick Cullop, out
fielders; Mickey Heath, first base
man from the Pacific Coast;
Joe Strip and Leo Durocher,
regular infielders, and Benny
Frey, right-hand pitcher. Most
Of them have been sent home
until they round into shape.
Heath will be out for five weeks
yet with a broken arm and the
date of Heilmann's return is in
definite.

DIZZY PACE

The Philadelphia Athletics to-
day went further about their
business of slackening the in
terest in the American League
race by recording their twelfth
straight victory. Connie Mack's
sensational 1881 drive is based
mostly on good pitchers. He is
Smacking back the ears Of his
rivals one by one by simply al
ternating four good hurlerS.
Lefty Groves turn came yes
terday and he was as invincible
as George Earnshaw the day pre-
viouS, the AS Withering Detroit,
3 to 0. Grove allowed only three
hits and passed four. Foxx and
Miller homered and Simmons hit
safely again, pushing his batting
average up to .438, which is con-
siderably more than any hitter
in either league may offer.
Buzz Arlett, the great Califor-
nian, who made the Phillies a
first division club, set the eagle
Shrieking with two circuit blasts
as the good brothers came from
behind to toss the Pirates, II to Z.
Arlett is now leading both leagues
in homers with nine, ranks sec
ond in National League hitting
with .355 average. and to date
has batted in 20 runs.
Another rookie, John BerIy,
up from Rochester, blanked
the Reds, 4 to 0, for the New
York Giants. Bill Terry'S
homer with two on in the
seventh was important.
Babe Herman singled in the
ninth to score Thompson and
Brooklyn won from the Card
inals, S to 4. Manager Street,
Coach Ware and Burleigh
Grimes were banished for umpire
saSsing and Grimes may not be
available today on the st. Louis
mound.
Gabby Hartnett poled a homer,
a double and two singles to lead
the hitting in the Chicago's to S
win over Boston.
Stewart was better than
bevy of Boston hurlers, St. Louis
annexing it. 8 to 4, from Boston.
Most Of the Browns Is hits were
punched in the first two innings,
netting seven tallies. Pickering

CONNEAUT LAKE PARK, Pa,
May 20.-Max Schmeling, Teuton
holder of the heavyweight cham
pionship who meets Young Strib-
ling at Cleveland next month,
planned a day of light exercise
today as a preparation for the
strenuous training grind to come.
Public training exhibitions in the
outdoor and indoor arenas will
not be held until the latter part
of next week.
Max and his manager, Joe
Jacobs; his German trainer, Max
Machon, and Promoter Billy Nc.
Carney and the entire training
camp retinue were enthusiastically
received at a banquet here last
night. t
With Fred VOSen, Hotel Chen

charge, q true German dinner
was served several hundred
admirers Of the brOnzed cham

German airs and a male quar-
tet harmOniZed.
Mccartney displayed consider.

roars of applause with a humor.

Schmeling party were introduced
to the local residents. Schmeling
was welcomed to Crawford

citation art the cream Of the base
ball category.
The famous old ball vender,
Walter johnson, has two of his
sons entered in the Times League.
Walter, jr., is a member of the
Wonder Bread Boys team. H.,
too, is a pitcher like his dad. But
from the reports of the younger
set he is a curve ball artist and
not speed ball tosser, as was
his dad.
Then there is the younger
member of the johnson family.
Namely, Eddie, who is probably
the most formidable contender for
second base on his team. He is
the only member of the family
that does not have some pitching
ability.
Griffith JrS. in Times Loops
The Clark Griffith Peewecs. a
club sponsored by the owner of
the washington American League
team, are also members Of the
Times loops. Three of the Wash
ington managers adopted sons
are on this club. They are Billy,
aged 10, as is Jimmy, too. Then
there is an older Griffith, who is
IL. He is Sherrid. Freddy Mundy
is the manager of the Junior
Griffmen.
While there are many other
teams of equal Importance in this
league there is probably no team
quite as cogent as the Wonder
Bread Boys. They are the leaders
OF their league. There are nu.
merous other teams that lead the
respective divisions. They also
have many stellar athletes on
their teams.

SCHOOL
TRACK MEET
TOMORROW
By GINO SIM


Washington high school stu
dents will focus their attention on
Central Stadium tomorrow, where
the interhigh track championship
will be disputed. The meet is ex-
pected to be one of the keenest
contested in the history of schol-
astic sports.
Eastern, who has the three
major scholastic track titles al
ready disputed safely tucked away
in it, bag is facing real task IN
preventing Central from Switching
the last remaining laurel.
Central Team Young
Fully aware Of the job ahead of
his charges, Mike Kelly has been
pushing them during the last few
days tc get them in top shape.
Bill Foley, Central mentor, is
inclined to rate his squad as
much too young and inexperi-
enced to be forced.
But close figuring brings out
the fact that Foley's youngsters
need not be forced too much to
lead the pack in the dashes and
the weights events. Bob st. John
is certain to add counters In the
middle distances.
Hap Hardell doesn't see a
chance for Tech, and so is concen-
trating on bringing in $50 yards
and the relay.
Beers Stad-Out
Dan Ahern's WeSternerS have
done nothing conspicuous in their
three previous appearances, but
In this meet the few points they
score will have telling effect on
the final results. Willard Beers is
Westerns Stand-out performer.
Business has no track team.
The IOng-deferred interhigh
school baseball game between .
Western and Eastern will be
played at $3.50 today at the
Eastern Stadium. 1t will be the
last game of the series.
Until Western Succumbed to
Tech by a 12-1 score Tuesday, it
was conceded a good chance Of
toppling the Lincoln Parkers and
forcing them into tie with Cen
tral. But since the Tech game,
in which Westerns fielding
proved to be as ragged as ever,
Eastern is regarded as an odds
on favorite to win.
Dewitt and Tech are to cross
racquets today at the Congress
sional Country Club courts. De-
witt is opposin st. Johns on the
courts tomorrow in a interpret
school match. Dewitt is now lead
ing the interpret league.

NET TOURNEY.
HALTED BY
SHOWERS

Continued rain today reduced
the Rock Creek courts to
gooey sea of clay and forced a
suspension of play in the City
of washington net tournament.
It is feared that the courts will
not be in playing condition for
several days.
However, Jupe Pluvius inter
fereAce is welcome. It Is some
thing of a boon, for it will give
the players and fans (the whole
II of 'em) chance to take
stock of the proceedings.
Today was to be a breathing
spell" devoted mostly to ravelling
up a few loose doubles trays.
If the weather should clear up,
and the committee in charge is
hoping with might and main
that it will, the semi-finals will
be played Saturday, leaving the
finals for Sunday afternoon, an
IDEAL date.
Yesterday was marked by
several upSetS, though none
could be referred to as un.
expected.
Frank Shores elimination of
Bud Markey came after nip
and tuck battle. Shores final
desperate rally which swept him
to victory, found the former
Notre Dame ace off his guard.
Bob Elliott added Maurice
O'Neill to his little red book of
veterans, while Hugh Trigg and
Gene Herman swept Bill Buc-
hanan and Dooly Mitchell out the
way and established themselves
as strong contenders for the
doubleG titles.
The Bud Markey-Tom Mangan
team scored over a toE$A COM
bination when they disposed of
Shoemaker and Haney in straight
sets, and strengthened their posi-
ton as the favoriteS to cop the
doubles title.
Several mildly exciting
matches developed in the mixed
doubles. NewbOId and NOEL
forced the Tabler-Decker COM
binatiOn to the utmost.
Margaret Graham and Joe Rut-
ley made the going difficult for
Frances Walker and Muscoe
Garnett.
Clara and Amy TabIer launched
their campaign for the women's
doubles title auspiciously, easily
Subduing Miller and Vest in
straight sets.
Mrs. George Stone and Miss
Newbold encountered keen opposi-
ton from Dorothy King and
Peggy Keyser, but triumphed in
straight sets.
Beating this King-Keyser ma
chine was no mean feat, and the
Stone -Newbold duo must be
reckoned in. the championship
arguments.

WELL SAID

Nicholas Murray Butler, president
of the great Columbia University in
New York, declares that the disarm-
ament conference to be held next
February must not fail and that pub
lie opinion is so far ahead of govern
ments that the conference will not
be permitted to fail. In his inter-
view with the New York Times Mr..
Butler said:
THE world needs no conference of
military and naval experts, bent on
balancing one equipment and one re-
source against another, but rather a
conference of far-sighted and con-
structive statesmen and men of af-
fairs, who firmly intenh to see that
this broken world is rebuilt, and that
quickly, before it is overcome by a
new and perhaps fatal disaster"
In the above Mr.. Butler expresses
an opinion held by many of the best
minds in America and the world, and
also gives expression to the hopes and
aspirations of millions of the mar
ticulate masses, mothers and fathers
of the youths of America.
