When baseball challenge goes from here from

that it take place Washington Park other place
but never Brooklyn. think this part of the city has
trbuted literally local athletics and this account it seems
strange and people interested in sport why such
large district should suitable athletic field where
people could indulge in legitimate sports the year round
We do srudse neighbors the benefit Of athletic
fields their midst but do claim that equally entitled
like consideration.
may be told that others have the of the Rye
Lots in South Brooklyn. This is true but there is not the
supervision athletic field owned by the city, so that
do the facts when that Brooklyn has no
grounds where clubs for sports with the same sa
enjoyed other districts of the city, You are familiar
with the situation and can bear testimony to the truth OF ~
am writing.
Will YOU please bring this the attention of the
public through column and obse large number OF eaoes
of the Waterbury Democrat We have thought of approaching
Mayor Hayes requesting him mediator for US in this
case but realized that he has good things hand
demanding his attention and decided to reach him and otnefS

golf, AL Houghton met yesterday

attempt to interest the local golf gov
erning body in scheme for the teach

Houghton first preached the idea last
Spring, but met with little response in
his plans.
IF golf becomes part of the athletic
curriculum in the public schools"
Houghton said, "it will not only be a
pleasant and healthful aVocation for
the pupils, but will give many of the
local pros chance to teach them. I
estimate the cost of complete set Of
golf lessons to public school pupils
for the season would be between So
and $5''
Houghton says the national P G. A.
is back of such a move and is planning
to spread the doctrine of golf teaching
in the public schools throughout the

over If he whips Ruggirello, frankie
Mann may import one or two heavies,
hoping to bring both Barry and Marty
Gallagher through a simultaneous builds
up campaign and match the District

Ruggirello, a towering 6-foot 4-inch
giant, who weighs 225 pounds, possesses
a wallop rated by many boxing experts
as the best in the game His other
assets are paled by comparison. He is
not a first-claSS boxer and tends to
slowness.
On the other hand, Barry is exactly
the opposite. Red is as speedy as a
lightweight and can box, though he
still can't punch his way through an
old-fashioned glass-beaded portiere. If
he can keep his chin out of the way,
he may outlook and outspeed Ruggirello.

BY BILL KING,

DOSTON, December led
K die Collins, his face BEAM
- ing with the happiest ex-
preston it has worn since
he and Tom Yawkey purchased
the Boston Red Sox almost a year
ago, returned to Fenway Park to-
day from his highly successful
shopping at the major league
meetings in Chicago.
Eddie was describing his ideals to his
admiring office staff when one Of them
sought verifcation Of reports that Dale
Alexander. 1882 American League bat
ting champion. was slated to go to
Kansas City along with several other
cast-offs.
Alexander going to Kansas City?
Nothing to it." Collins replied. II don't
know where that report originated, the
one regarding the players we are going
to send to Kansas City, for we haven't
definitely decided who is going to the
Blues. One thing I do know Is that
Alexander was not discussed as one OF
those likely to go.
CT HEARD only today that we already
have agreed to send Alexander,
Stumpf, Almada and Fullerton to
Kansas City as our part OF the working
agreement with that American ASsocia-
ton club. The truth is we have signed
no contracts as to who will go, but Alex
will not be one of them"
Although Collins and Yawkey have
set new base ball trading records dur
ing the past year, the climax coming
with the purchase Of Bob UeftO
Grove. George Walberg and Max Bishop
from the Athletics and Outfielder Carl
Reynolds from the Browns, Eddie in
dicated that his millionaire associate
was still keeping his pocketbook within
easy reach.
IT FEEL that the deals We effected in
Chicago will give us much better
club than we had last season.
Now about Reynolds. Before We got
him from the Browns we tried to get
a right-handed outfielder from the
Yankees. But am satisfied that Carl
will help us much more than our Or
iginal choice. We were on the point
of doing something with Washington
a few days ago. but the Nationals
wanted some of our pitching strength
and had nothing to offer that we
wanted"

discussed any deal between his club
and the Red Sox while in Chicago last
week, nor, so far as he knew, had
