'SPORTSPARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN TODAY'S NEWS
By HENRY McLEMORE

Oihttu EICSS otdll SOtiCspOhuChs
NEW YORK, April 27-True to
its high resolve to always go 10
rounds for the down trodden and
oppressed, this bureau today an
nounces the formation of a new
society-the society for the pre-
vention of cruelty to steam shoyels.
Six times during the past two
weeks we have seen sober, quiet
and law abiding steam shovels
subjected to treatment that made
our blood boil with indignation
The whole matter came to a head,
and the society to life yesterday
when Madison Square Garden be-
gan its ballyhoo for the Sharkey-
Schmeling rumpuS in June.
Quite a crowd of us-Jimmy
Johnston, Sharkey, Johnny Buck
ley, 10 or II reporters and heaven
only knows how many photograph
ers-repaired to the site of the
new Garden bowl to talk things
over and take few pictures. Af-
ter the cameraman had made such
masterful shots as "Sharkey shovel
ing dirt" "Sharkey conversing with
construction foreman" "Sharkey
patting child on head" "Sharkey
on spot where ring will be-" and
"Sharkey with dukes up" Mister
Johnston told the sailor to step
into a steam shovel.
Just get in there, Jack" john
ston said, land pull a few levers.
It'll make a swell picture"
Sharkey bounded in the cabin
and yanked terrifically at the
nearest thing at hand. The poor
shovel, still upset from Mayor
Walkers and Borough President
Harvey's treatment at the ground
breaking last week, gave an agon-
izing cry, threw its snout high in
the air, and screamed for mercy.
Cameramen Grind Away
Pull her again, jack" cried the
merciless Johnston, pull hel
again." So while Sharkey contin-
ued to torment the poor creature
the cameramen ground away.
The society was born the second
that snout went up in the air
The S. F. T. P. o. G. T. S. S., as
the organization will be known
may not do away with the practice
of picking on helpless machines
altogether, but certainly it viii
make it safe for an honest steam
shovel to go about its days work
without having a bunch of un-
skilled celebrities pestering it tc
death.
The fact that Mister Johnston
could think of no more origina
pose from Sharkey may offer
sound tipoff on the success, OF
lack of success, on the coming
fight. Mister Johnston says il
will be 100000 or better. If il
does, it'll have to have some swell
ballyhoo, some magnificent build
ups. Nothing short of a Tex Ric'
kard touch will enable the sailol
and the Dutchman to go abov'
100000, much less 100000.

ALLISON TAKES
SHIELDS PLACE
ON TENNIS TEAM
BY JACK CUDDY

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, April 27.-Members
of the Davis cup tennis selecting
committee feel there was nothing
surprising in the last-minute sub
stitution of Wilmer Allison for
Francis x. Shields to represent the
United States in the singles against
Canada, it was learned authorita-
lively today.
Shields, second ranking player in
the country, will not appear in the
cup competition starting Thursday
at the Chevy Chase club, Wash
ington, D. c.
In yesterdays draw, Allison of
Texas, No. 9 in ranking, was
matched against Marcel Rainville
of Canada in the opening singles.
He also will play in the doubles,
paired with John VanRyn of
Philadelphia.
Shields had been slated for the
No. 2 singles berth on the team
when its four members were an
naunced three weeks ago. But
he failed to round into form in
time to make the position, in the
opinion of the selection committee.
Meanwhile, Allison developed into
the 1882 court sensation.

PITCHERS KEEP
Up GOOD WORK
IN BIG LEAGUES

NEW YORK, April 81. U.P)-
Pitching performances, which fig
ured so prominently in the first
two weeks of the major league sea-

Charlie Ruffing came forward
for the New York Yankees yester-
day to save the game to S, after
Walter Johnson's Senators had
blasted dependable Herb Pennock
from the mound in the eighth inn
ing. Johnson used four pitchers
Crowder, Ragland, Burke and Mar
berry.
Washington's two run rally in
the eighth tied the score at 5 all,
as the Yankees came to bat.
Then Marberry walked Larry.
Babe Ruths line single to right
sent Larry around to third, and
Larry scored the winning run on
Gehrig's single. Ruffing held
Washington scoreless in the ninth.
The victory advanced the Yanks
to second place in the league
standings, and dropped Washing
ton to third.
In the only other game played
in the majors yesterday, Lefty
Grove was driven from the mound
as the Boston Red Sox smothered
the AS 10 to 2. The defeat drop
ped Philadelphia to sixth place.
For the first five innings, the
Red Sox couldn't get hit of
Grove. But he weakened in the
sixth, and they punched five ot
their 10 hits for six runs. They
made another run in the eighth
off Rommel and three in the
ninth when Earl Webb helped
with a homer with one man or
base. Eddie Durham held the AS
to five hits 1t was Philadelphia
sixth defeat in seven games.

PERCY GRANGER
SOLO|ST WITH
SYMPHONY
By RONALD THORNE

Conductor Hans Kinder yester-
day afternoon provided for a sort
Of impromptu referendum a. to
the popularity of modernist
music. 1t was managed through a
= program arrangement whereby
Mossolov's Iron Foundry" was
placed at the end of the after
moons bill, following a pause dur
ing which those of the audience
who didn't care for it might
leave.
1t was interesting to note the
results. Certainly not more than
10 per cent of the audience left,
and Iron Foundry" somewhat
familiar kert now by reason Of
its presentations by the Philadel-
phia and National Symphony Or
cheStraS, received the customary
ovation.
Yesterdays concert of the Ma
tional Symphony was perhaps the
most interesting yet If the Sun
day series. It openee. with a bal
let suite by Mottl. arranged from
Gluck's operas. which f. all prac-
ClcaI purposes do not survive
otherwise today. Then came the
most important number of the
afternoon, the Grieg Concerto in
A minor, with Percy Granger as
soloiSt.
This concerto has not been
heard in Washington for a num-
Der of years, and it was particu-
larly welcome yesterday not only
because of Grainger's fin" inter
probation but because of its in
trinsic content.
The Andante cantabile from
TschaikowSky's Fifth Syn ohony,
so much played on the radio, and
Liadow'S little muSic-box piece
followed. Then two more numbers
by Grainger-his "Blithe Bells"
and "GumsuckerS' March"-and
last, the Iron Foundry"

The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-07-29

A band of over sixty Catholic laymen of this city departed. this afternoon for Charles Island, near Milford, to attend a spiritual re- treat under the direction of priests of the Dominican order. They will spend this evening, Saturday and Sunday, on the island and will re- turn to Waterbury early Monday morning. The band was organised through the efforts of John F. White, local school inspector, one of the first promoters.
 The main part of the local con- tingent assembled at the Knights of Columbus club rooms on Grand street and started for Milford in q specially chartered bus. Many of the party left by private cars, which they will leave parked at the Milford Yacht club during their weekend stay on the island. Others will report late this after noon at the retreat house.
 The local band received its fn- spirationt to organize when several Waterburians visited Charles Island last year and returned impressed with the services and the beautiful location of the Dominican home. Several promoters immediately set about to increase the number of pilgrims for this year. A quota of 50 was first attempted. That number was recruited and passed.
