Roosevelt, three for Smith and
one for Ritchie.
When Ohio was reached w. w.
Durbin Of that delegation "chal-
lenged the accuracy" Of the vote
and asked that it be polled.
Durbin is one of the Roosevelt
leaders in the State and recently
made an unsuccessful effort to
have Gov. George White with
draw as Ohio'S favorite son in
favor of Governor Roosevelt.
Durbin did not make his move
until after Ohio had again cast
her ballot "52 for Governor
White"
The second ballot did not vary
greatly from the original ballot
except that Roosevelt picked up
a few additional votes in Indiana
and Missouri.
On the second ballot, Missouri
was evenly divided, 18 and 18. as
between Reed and Roosevelt.
Roosevelt leaders sitting on the
stage with their pencils and paper
declared in answer to questions
that they were "going straight to
nomination if it took all day."
While the Ohio delegation was
being polled, John w. Davis, who
emerged from the hectic Madison
Square Garden convention as tire
nominee, and to whom this scene

standing up to watch the New
York row.
There was a huge crowd con-
gregated about the New York
delegation and the congestion be-
came so terrific that McAdoo,
sitting in the California delegation
behind New York demanded that
the center aisle be cleared. A
squad of police and ushers man
aged to clear the aisle and re-
mained stationed there.
Curry's request to poll the New
York delegation was said to have
been due to the fact that a num-
Der of the Roosevelt delegates were
not present.
Six Chicago policemen final
" we're stationed in the cen
ter aisle by the delegation
while the poll of the delega-
ton proceeded.
James A. Farley, RooSe-
velt's field marshal, did not
sit with the New York delega-
ton. He sat in a chair on the
platform along with the other
Roosevelt managers, pencil in
hand, keeping a close check.
There was almost a constant
wrangle between the Tam
many leaders and the chair
man of the convention over
the rights of certain alter.
mates to vote in the absence
of delegates. In several in-
stances, Walsh merely ordered
that the names be passed.
Round Up Absentees
1t was evident that a num-
Der of the Tammanv delegates,
and the Roosevelt dele gates as
well. in the delegation had pre-
ferred to spend a comfortable
night, in their hotel rather
than in the heavy atmosphere
of the stadium with it's cas-
cading torrents of oratory.
Messengers were sent out to
get the abSentees on the tele-
phone and have them return
to the stadium.
The spectacle of q New York
delegation being polled in a ma
tional convention was so unusual
that the other delegates and the
more tardy spectators who had
sat up in the galleries all night
could hardly believe their eyes.
Mayor Walker showed up at
$50 a. m. and cast his vote for
Al Smith.
The Washington times., 1932-07-01

J. Hooey, of New York, demanded
that the results be announced.
Chairman Walsh gravely ex-
planned that due to changes in
the votes 1t had delayed the
tabulation.
After announcing the official
totals, Walsh said:
mo candidate having received
the necessary twO-thirds the
clerk will call the roll again."
Connecticut moved for an ad-
jaurnment until 9 O'Clock tonight
just as the second roll call
started.
Walsh said it was out of order
as the ballot1ng had been started
The taking of the first ballot
presented a spectacle unprece-
dented probably in any Demo
cratic national convention except
the historic Madison Square Gar
dent show, not only from the
standpoint of time, but in turbu.
lence and confusion as well.

Walsh Disguised as Pennsylvania
Joins in Demand For Delegation Poll

The tedious Ohio poll didn't re.
veal much after all except thst
one member of the delegation was
absent and that Durbin, who had
demanded the poll, wanted to cast
his one-half vote for Roosevelt.
Fifty and one-half of the Buck.
eye votes went to Governor White
instead of So.
There was more delay during
the second ballot when Pennsyl-
vania was reached.
Walsh Disguised
A demand was made for poll
of that delegation. too, and
Chairman Walsh asked:
who demands it?"
"The chairman of the Penn.
SyIvania delegation" he was
told.
poll the delegation" said
Walsh, diSguStedly.
AS in the case of Ohio and New
York, the poll revealed abSentees,
and there was pickering over
which alternates would be al
lowed to vote for which absent
delegates. Walsh ruled that only
the delegates regularly accredited
alternate could vote for him.
During the second ballot, Al
Smith strolled into the Uttered
battle-ground. He looked fresh
and fit, in contrast to the heavy.
eyed and rumpled delegates who
were struggling to keep awake
and had been in their seats since
9 o'clock last night.
The squabble over the legal
technicalities in the Pennsylvania
situation involving who could
vote for who proceeded endlessly

resS, the Roosevelt high command
including James A. Farley, Arthur
Mullen, of Nebraska. the floor

Senator A. w. Barkley of Kentucky
and others, had a huddle on the
platform, apparently discussing
how soon they would consent to

wyoming did likewise and so
did the Territories and depend
encies, except the Canal Zone
which yielded to Iowa in order
to allow Ed McManus to make a
seconding speech for Governor
Ritchie.
Groans and cries of throw
him out" greeted another speaker
McManus made his speech,
nevertheless, while the delegates
dozed.
Just when it appeared a vote
was impending, George P. Mar
shall, of the District of Columbia,
was recognized. He seconded the
nomination of Ritchie.
The Virgin Islands passed ano
that ended the roll call.
Tho first ballot was a tedious
affair.
When the New York vote was
called for. a voice asked for 9
poll of the delegation. Senator
Walsh demanded:
"WhO asks it?"
John F. Curry" came the
astonishing reply.
The poll started.
Curry himself was called first
and voted for Smith, as did John
w. Davis.
Al Smith Absent
AL Smith and Jimmy Walker
were absent.
The delegations from Iowa and
from Minnesota also had to be
polled. Protests were made in
each instance against the unit
rule, but in each case Chairman
Walsh overruled the protests end
ordered the entire State votes
cast for Roosevelt.
To poll the New York delega
ton was a long winded matter
for there were "a in the delega
tion, although there we're many
absentees. There were mix-ups
over whether certain alternates
could vote for absentees.
Joseph S. Shannon, of the
Missouri delegation, protested
that the Missouri delegates
couldn't see what was going or
because one section of the Massa
chusettS delegation insisted or

for an hour,

proposed an adjournment until
4 p. m.
They had opposed adjournment
after the first ballot when the
anti-Roosevelt allies had de-
manded one. as they were con-
fident that with 666 votes on the
first they could push the New
York governor over the line on
the second.
When they failed to do so, Ar
thur Mullen, the Roosevelt floor
manager. proposed the rest.
Then it was the anti-RooSevelt
forces turn to object and they
did so emphatically.
Congreswoman Mary Norton, OF
the New Jersey delegation, and
Dudley Field Malone, in the New
York delegation objected.
The chairman, Senator Thomas
J. Walsh, put the question and
there appeared an almost equal
division of the ayes and noes.
Demands Roll Call
Malone then demanded q
roll call. 1t was ordered, but
just as it was about to be
started Mullen hastily with
drew his motion and the third
ballot on the presidency was
ordered.
The ant i-Roosevelt allies
claimed to have assurances that
the Roosevelt strength would be-
gin to crumble after the third
ballot and they wanted to stay
at It.
1t was a strange and weird
spectacle that the stadium pre-
sented as the sunlight came up
over Lake Michigan and streamed
through the windows of the
stadium where the Democrats
had been in continuous session
since 9 p. m last night.
It shone on faces lined with
weariness and eyes thick lidded
from lack of sleep. Many of the
delegates were asleep in their
seats; others just walked out and
went downtown for food, rest,
drink and fresh clothing.
The floor of the stadium was
Uttered with the debris that
great crowds leave.

by the American team which
returned to the United States recently
after a tour of almost $4,000 miles
The American team, although the
smallest delegation at the games,
romped of with major honors in the
track and field meet.
The United States contingent won
the. team trophy with 178 points,
Palestine placing second with Sc, and
England, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Po-

DY far the finest performance of the

Harry Schneider, former New York

At the conclusion of the Garden ex-
hibit, there were more knots on the
ends OF the IL participants and the
attending coppers than there were
phrenologists in New York to read the
bumps, figuring, of course, that the
head-bump scanners would want to get
close enough to q lacrosse player to
get to work.
There was only one complaint
from the audience, according to my
palpitating intruder, and that was
concerning the sticks used. Most of
the New Workers in attendance
could not understand why the sawed
OF butterfly nets were 50 long, when,
figuring brevity in most things these
days, a chunk of sewer pipe, gas pipe
or a mere blackjack would have suf-
feed. 1t looked to be extravaganza to
be paying S12 for a collegiate shil-
lelah in these depressing times when
. hunk Of pipe would do as much
damage.
Rules in the game, as I understand
it. are few and not taken seriously.
For the client who thinks boxing lacks
enough knockouts, wrestling is too tame
and ice hockey too slow, box lacrosse
seems just the thing. As it Is planned
to be played next Spring in New York,
and win be played at Baltimore this
year, particular difficulty will be in
getting sufficient hard-headed young
ex-collegiates to play.

Fighting Shamed

NEW YORK, May 12.-They
~ brought box lacrosse to pam

Madison Square Garden Tuesday
night and the result was a revela-
ton. The few prize fighters who
stumbled in by mistake blushed to
the roots of their hair at the pun
ishment those Canadians took with
out whimpering. and the spectators
sat UP In the tiers, Tipping thumbs
up and thumbs down, like Roman
Emperors of old giving the lions
their whims.
You came away from that exhi-
bition with confused ideas. The game
is slower in some respects than col
lege outdoor lacrosse, because the
professionals 60 at it like pro foot
ballers. No wasted movements and
no wild running around when the
time isn't ripe. But like the pro
gridmen, they give and take terrific
punishment in swift, sharp melees.
Most Of them played without

the onlookers gasped at the free

BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer

TINE New York Yankees no
longer are getting the fam
i boyant batting that had
opposing clubs hanging on
the ropes the first fortnight of
the campaign, but their pitching
suddenly has become a thing of
beauty.
In scoring four consecutive vic
tories over Detroit and st. Louis
and setting sail after the flying
Washington Griffmen, Joe Nc
Carthy'S curvers have more than
atoned for a marked falling of
In the clubs attack.
In four games the quartet Of George
Plpgras, Charley Rufing, Vernon Co
mez ana young Johnny Allen has al
lowed only four runs, two of which
would have been averted by snappier
support: Fipgras and Allen have regis
tered shutouts.
a LIEN, the rookie from Toronto, who
"A barely was hanging on until he
oobbed up with great Job Of re-
lief tw1rltng last week, won himself a
starting berth yesterday when he set
the Browns down, 8 to o, on five seat
tered hits.
The victory enabled the Yanks 10
narrow the gap between them and the
leading Griffs to two games. All the
other American League teams were
weatherbound at Washington, PhiIadel-
phia and Boston.
The Brooklyn Dodgers travelled II In
nlngS 10 beat out st. Louis, 6 to 3. and
break four-game losing streak. Their
three runs in the twelfth we're strictly
gift, the compliments of wild BilI'
Hallahan. In that frame the Cardinal
southpaw uncorked three wild pitches
tying the major league record for that
specially; passed one man and allowed
three hits.
JIMMY COLLINS enabled the Cards
j to carry the fight into extra innings
when he smacked his eighth home
run In the fourth with Watkins on base.
Cincinnati fans enjoyed a large after
noon as their Reds made 1t two out of
three over the Phillies, 4 to 1. Not or,ly
did Red" Lucas hold the Phils to i've
hits and his battery mate, Ernie Lom-
bardi, lead an assault on two visiting
moundsmen, but there were fisticuffs Ia
the bargain.
Leo Durocher, displeased when he was
tagged out stealing second, planted a
right on the jaw of Dick Barten, Phils'
shortstop. Barten went down and Du-
rocher went out.
