There was loose Jim bed, lantern- jawed Alex Smith, acclaimed by a raving crowd of 16,000 as he led the Boston Bruins to a 3-2 vic tory over New York's Rangers, as well as to the American division championship of the National League.
 For some reason that the psy- chologists doubtless can explain, one immediately recalled the day five or six short weeks ago when the same Smith,. having lost his fan appeal or somethings was unemployed by none other than the Ottawa Senators, sole claim ants to cellar position in the five club international division.
 He Clicked
 Castoff from a club that has won only Il of it's AS games, Smith was signed by the Bruins as sort of gamble, long shot that fount the target from the start and hit the bulPs-eye resound- ing whack last night when Alex scored two of his teams goals and starred in a defense that bottled up New York's famed cook-Bou- cher-Cock line nrare fashion.
 Smith opened the Bruins SCOT ing in the first period when he converted a double pass from Shore and Ripley. His hard, low shot from behind a screen of players in the second session gave the home club it's third and win ming tally. Heximer having scored the second.
 Furious Finish
 Trailing, 2-3, late in the third period, the Rangers put five for wards on the ice and staged a series of sensational assaults on the Boston net, but Goalie Tiny Thompson and his teammates were equal to the challenge and the Bruins won without the necessity of going into overtime.
 The Bruins meet Toronto, inter- national division champion, start ing this weekend in some of the preliminary Stanley cup playoff series.

Getzewich Allows BrOwn= ing to Recover and Win With "TurnOver Scissors"


 New Haven. Conn, March 22-- (UP)-An upset almost occurred in wrestling circles here last night when Al Getzewich, a comparative unknown from Manchester, Conn had an opportunity to pin Jim Browning, Missouri.
 Took It Easy
 Getzewich tossed Browning over his head in one of those scram bles that seem to please the addicts, but when Browning landed it was his head that hit first, and he was dazed. He lay helpless on his back. It was a tough spot for Getzewich, what with Browning being some kind of a champion, but he solved it by standing idly until Browning began to show /some signs of life. Then he made a flying tackle. missed and sailed mot the press row. When he climbed back Browning's head had cleared and he clamped on a turnover scissors" to win the match.
 In other matches George Zary- noff won from Jack, Washburn, Boston, on foul; Sam Cordovano, Washington, threw Steve Znoski, New Britain; Jack Riley, Evans ton, defeated Herbie Freeman, New York, and Tiny Roebuck, Ok lahoma, lost to Roland Kirsch- never, New York.

CALENDAR FOOLED WISE CUY' ON
 DATE FOR FIGHT
Johnston Outsnlarts Him. self As Dempsey Pre- pares For June Show
BY JACK CUDDY

tDn1le0 Press starr COfFeSDOn0cnt)
 New York, March 22 = (UP)-- When Jack Dempsey opened his new offices on Broadway today, he was preparing to have the words, My Pal,' stenciled over his calendar, because the calendar helped him win the first round in his promoting battle with Madison Square Garden.
 It was the calendar, according 10 authoritative sources, that en- abIed Dempsey and his associate. Tim Mara, to corner the strategic bout between Max Schmeling and Maxie Baer at Yankee Stadium.
 1t happened like this: Jimmy "Wise Guy" Johnston of the Gar den figured he would beat Demp- sey to the punch. so he applied to the New York Boxing Association for the right to stage "a bout" in the first week" or the Hast week" of June.
 Boomerang
 The astute Johnston made this request before Dempsey's outfit asked for date, but unfortu- pately Jimmy forgot to look at the calendar and he omitted telling the commission what bout he in tended to stage. At that time the commission was drowning darkly upon rumors of Jack Sharkey- Primo Camera title bout.
 Naturally when the commission awarded Dempsey the June 1 date, sJohnston and Madison Square Gar den were incredulous. Jimmy want ed to know 'how come?" So the commissioners took little Jimmy to . nice big calendar and ex- pfained that the first week" of June begins on Sunday. June 4. Dempsey had been given June 1. in the last week of May.
 Moreover. the commissioners had no idea Jimmy wanted to stage a big title fight, or they cer- tainly wouldn't have given Demp- sey and Mara the June 1 data, which might have conflicted with it.
 Of course, a lot of fellows Tn Cauliflower Alley believe the com- mission was merely giving little Jimmy Johnston the "run-around" because of Mara's powerful polit- ical connections, but Dempsey de- nies this and refers to the calen- dar as My Pal"

BEAUTIFYING ROADS

Gutson Borglum, famous sculptor. has be-
come chairman of the Texas highway park
board and is to have charge of a vast program
OF beautifying the states highways in prepara-
ton for the Texas centennial in 1886.
This program calls, among other things, for
the planting of oleander trees along both sides
OF 5000 miles of state roads, the planting of
palm and date trees along 1900 other miles
OF roads and the planting of still other semi
tropical trees along still other highways.
Texas is buying wide borders of land by
It's highways to develop parkways, which will
be planted with evergreens. And bilIboards
are to be demolished.
Here is scheme which hardly can be
praised too highly. People who motor through
Texas in years to come will have much reason
to thank the state officials who thought of
this program.
