M'FARLAND GETS : HATTENED OUT BY BIG BURPERS
Former Champion, Now
 ] Athletic Commissioner,
 Gets Three in the Lap
By KENNTH D. FRY

&4ufItu IaEcsD Ctuh CoAhSSRO~S
 Chicago, March 2S.-(UP)- pucky Mcfarland, of the Illinois Athletic commission, had wrestling right in his lap last night and Hidn't do a thing about 1t.
 John Doe" Krone, who has for faken the Londos troupe to take Sip with Strangler Lewis and his hoys. put on a mat show at the old Coliseum, and Mcfarland attended ns official representative of the state ring body.
 I'm the old days Packy was boxer, and a good one. But ne mas 7net his speed, because three times 18st night when wrestlers came fumbling out of the ring they land ed with unerring accuracy on Mc- Earland, whose dignity was shat tsred.
 VI Closet Ups
 ssSammy Stein, a big. handsome Erappier from New YorK' grew fffed of Mike Romano's bad man. 4lfrs and forthwith tossed Romano into Packy's lap. Mcfarland seem- ed to be a little surprised and em- barrassed. Romano leaped back into the arena.
 Then Gus Sonnenberg, former Dartmouth tackle, and Karol Zbys- zko. took turns picking on Packy. First Karol went flying into Me- Earland's lap. Then Sonnenberg hutted Zbyszko through the ropes and onto Packy, who was becoming q little tired of that sort of thing. rs,McFarland gave zbyszko a vio- lent shove and Karol collapsed on the concrete floor. The referee gave the bout to Sonnenberg.
 " Poor Performance
 ssStrangler Lewis. who has trained down to 265 pounds, trified with Ieon Pinetzki, of Poland, who was billed as the Human Gorilla" They went nowhere in very dull manner for 20 minutes, while Mc- Fariand sat disappointed. Finally Strangler used an arm scissors 10 pin Pinetzki.
 Neither landed on Mcfarland.

with a little more punch at the plate. ."Grimm told me recently, ''the Cubs could have won the first two games of that world series last fall. I believe we've got punch In Babe Herman. ..
 The Cubs sent assorted ball players and a few gold standard vouchers to the Reds for Herman last year.
 Except for Herman, the Cubs will begin the season very much the same team that won the Ma tional League pennant last year by four games. But there are important differences. One is the spirit of harmony. For the first time in four years the Cubs are getting along together in training camp. Another changed outlook bears directly upon the pitching staff.
 Pitchers Battered
 The Cubs were alleged to have the best staff in the league when they teed off last spring. But there were important disappointments and surprises. They managed to win the pennant largely on the ef- forts of Lon Warneke, recruit who came through with astounding success. The other pitchers were irregular. They begged down at intervals.
 Now Burleigh Grimes is 40, Ma lone is in his 31st year. Root his 34th, Bush his 31st. These pitch CTS are beginning to feel the bangs of mortality. It is a good staff. but far from being a great one. And a whole lot depends upon young Warneke is his second year as a regular and his first of married life.
 Grimm must have one left handler. There are three in the training camp, and operatives re- port that none of these Is another Carl Hubbell. One is Carroll Yer kes, who won 10 and lost IF games for Albany-not very hot big league recommendation. Another is Beryl Richmond, who won 12 and lost IA for Baltimore. The third is Roy Henshaw, a strike- out artist fresh from the Univer- sity of Chicago campus. Henshaw is the best-looking prospect of the three, but his efficiency against major league hitters Is just a guess.
 Grimm Optimistic
 Grimm, however, believes there is much about which to be optim- istic. "Our infield will be even better than 1t was last year." he says. Billy Herman is bound to improve at second, as he hasn't reached his peak. Bill urges at short showed against the Yankees what kind of competitive spirit he had. Koenig has 8 lot of baseball left. English and Hack equip us pretty we'll at third base.'
 Herman probably will play right field, Cuyler center and Stephenson left. Alternates will be Frank Demaree and Win Bar ton.
 The. major uncertainty is tho pitching staff. Its success will depend upon the production of a left-hander.
 The team in fortunate in having a manager of Grimm's tempera- ment. There are one of two sulk- CTS on the team. but Grimm is the kind of boss who can get regular work even out of these. He is steadying influence at first base. The drama of his accession to the Cub throne left him unaffected.
 There was no change in him af- ter the pennant was clinched. Neither was thehe any after the Cubs were overwhelmed by the Yankees. Winning or losing, his fight is a great help to the team.

Especial to- The Democrat)

New Haven. March 2s-Definite- ly destined to end the season in fourth place. the New Haven Eagles make their last stand of the season tonight at the New Haven Arena where they will op- pose the top, notch Philadelphia Arrows.

EDDIE CARR BOXES
 AL BOROSS THURSDAY
(Special to The Democrat)

New Haven, March 28-Billed as the semi-final of eight rounds, but we'll worth a feature berth on any state boxing card is the Steve Carr Eddie Moore battle which will be presented at the New Ha- ven Arena on Thursday night un- der the 10 round slugfest between Tony Shucco, New England light heavyweight champ, and Ralph Fi- cucello, New York Italian leather pusher.
 Both Moore and Carr are the two leading middleweights in the Nutmeg State to-day and are like ly championship prospects. Carr whose destiny as apugilist is being guided by Dinny McMahon. vet eran handler, came into promi- hence in the local ring by virtue of his four sensational victories while Moore who halls from the Park City in his four appearances won three and lost one by a close margin.
 Moore's height and long reach have been outstanding advantages for him in his ring career thus far. He is a sound puncher and a clever boxer. On the other hand, Car ris one of the gamest battlers in the game hereabouts. It is said of him that he has not been known to take a backward step in the ring. His aggressiveness along with his strength have been the cause for the downfall of all his opponents to date. With these two striving for the asme goal there is no doubt but the fans from throughout the state will witness one of the most spectacular and sensational bouts of the season.
 Al Boross, the Park City Hun garian K. o. brilliant, will return to focal ring warfare against Ed- die Carr, the Waterbury negro flash. Herman Reigel. ex-Teuton battler and now of New York. is pitted against Jack Renault, pleasing local club fighter, while in the second four rounder Billy Lynch of Boston is slated to mix with Tony Lavioro of Bristol.

 LEAGUE NOTES
STANDING

Good evening, ladies and gentle- men! This is station V'FOE broad casting on a wave length of 370 kilocycles without authority of the federal radio commission.
 The best match of the season to date was rolled last Tuesday night when Deverso took two games from Murray. Deverso lost the first game by one pin, tied the second game, and then won the third game by three pins. Jimmy won his own game with a spare in the last box and a nine filler. Here are to to- tals on the three games: First game, Deverso 415-Murray 416; second game, Deverso 416-Murray 415; third game, Deverso 403-- Murray 400.
 With only two moro weeks of bowling and six games left to be rolled, believe 1t or not, the last place team can still finish in tie for first place if they win their six remaining games and If Stein loses his six games. One game and the fifth place team. A great
  Ond place since 1t was announced that autographed photo of Louie Miller standing at the helm of his yacht will be the prize.
 Billy Neville and his famous lire ball, that makes Lefty Groves speed ball Joke like slow motion, together with Dupre of Murray's team, turned in three nice strings last week, but in spite of their good bowling the best they could do was to win one game. It's pretty tough for a four-man team to bowl well over 400 for three games and lose two, but that's what happened last week. If the doctor had these two men at the start of the season there would be no doubt of the winner of first place.
 Graham's team took their usual two games from Stein last week. If Graham bowled Stein every week the standing would be re. vcrsed and if BOyce played Ora. ham every week the Handicapper would be leading the league. This Is just an answer to Bill Ryans boasting of how his team can kuOCk OIl 6ICAn any SAAAS sAASS ssA~s' You know. the old saying, Bill, an I for an I.
