In the interest of bigger and bet ter quoit leagues, here's hoping the Hamilton and Fulton Park leagues can get together this or next month to decide the city championship and then pick an ''sll star" team for state competition, if that is possible. Both circuits wind up sensational competition within a week or two. with some individual performances that ought to be thrown open to the public. The players started it as a neighborhood pastime. but it has become we'll orgonized and worthy of public notice and inc terest. for the sport is confined to a small number is plenty "hot" when competitors are we'll matched.

There is no set rule as to just how far feet should be kept apart in driving, but IA to 15 inches is about the average distance. For iron play the feet might be bit closer.
 The best way to find the width best suited to the individual is to see that at the top of the swing there is a nice sense of balance, and that the feet do not inter- fsre with the pivot of the body at the hiIe.
 Start with the feet close to- gether and gradually widening the stance, experimenting until the proper distance Is acquired.

In two weeks, Phil Weintraub has shown himself as the Jewish ball player the Giants have been hunting for so many years, and he will be on parade every minute, you can be assured, for even when he's off the field, those green shirts and pink scarfs will identify him to idol worshipers. As far as Bill Terry is concerned, he's just what the Giants want now. 400 hitter to help them sew up the pen nant and go on to defend their world championship against De- troit or their hometown neigh bors, the Tanks. Could the late John McGraw see Weintraub hit that apple these days, he would know his quest for such a player was not in vain as New York's Jewish population will prove at the turnstiles.

Delaware, sluggcr, in a non. title bout that was genuine, however, as far as the result was concerned. Remember Rios? He's the boy who boxed Al Rossi in New Haven last winter when they were trying to "build up" Rossi, who happens to be Dundcc's brother-in-law, and Rios made him look good that night by pulling punches, pushing instead of punching, etc. But now you know what he can do when he's trying.

8, JOHN A. CLUNEY

Max Baer may be the most "col- orful' of modern fighters, if clowning constitutes color, but he's a complete flop as referee of wrestling bouts, after taking a leaflet from the Dempsey diary. He has even gotten to the point where he's taking swings at the wrestlers, but he just can't draw 'em through the turnstiles, in the fashion of the old Mannassa Maul- CT, not by several miles. On top of that his vaudeville appearance at Chicago theoter was a flop, though he accepted a $5,000 com promise instead of s7,500 for a weeks appearance without work ing an hour. Which is not so bad, excepting for the reputation of the worlds heavyweight champion.

My Public Parks Pinkerton man tells me the league shows two colored players each week that have been playing the nations pas- time for u combined total of 37 years. Which Is in itself. a bit of an oddity in q junior league, but true, nevertheless. Second baseman Alex Graves and Catcher Tommy Taylor, both of the A. 5. c. colorcd combine have seen 66 years go by, Graves being 30 and Taylor SC years of age, and they are still able to hop around like the youngsters they play with and against. That benefit game last night was a financial flop, just $6.06 being received, with $4.35 worth of expenses to deduct, mak- ing net profit for the league of $1.71 which will not buy two base balls for next Sundays games.

Boxing is not exactly totter- ing in Connecticut, particularly In the amateur business. Last night, just 2,8S4 customers were on hand to sec the youngsters sling leather at Thoinpsonvillc which is not so bad for a burg of that size, while S,OOO were reported among those present at the Hartford amateur show and the New Haven crowds have been approaching old time proportions for the past few shows.

From his score of 70 yesterday afternoon, which copped medalist honors at the New Haven Country club invitation golf tournament, Bobby Grant of Wethersfield seems to have regained the form that left him during the New Eng land golf championship play in Waterbury ten days ago. If he keeps up the good work, he should be in nice shape for the U. S. Am. ateur play at Brookline, Septem- Der 10, at which time he will rep resent the Waterbury Country club, where he has been voted ir as a nonresident member.

EVERGLADES PARK
MEASURE PASSED
Stormy House Session Pre-.
cedes Vote on Bill Scored
by G. 0. P.
BY the Associated Press.

6y tHc AoSUCldtcu EIeSc.
Creation of a national park in the
Florida Everglades was approved yes
terday by the House. The Senate
already has voted to establish the
park.
Representative Wilcox, Democrat, of
Florida, author of the House bill,
said his measure would be substituted
on the Senate side, and he predicted
final approval at this session.
Wilcox's measure was approved, 223
to l46, over determined opposition
from the Republican side, where
speakers labeled it "the alligator and
snake swamp BILL" and threatened a
fllibuster.
The Republicans objected first to
showing aside important financial leg
islation to take up the park bill. De-
feated in their efforts to keep the
measure from the floor. they con-
tended creation of the park would be
a forerunner to new Federal expendi-
lures in the area.
Expenditures Limited.
As passed, the bill stipulates that
the Government will spend no money
within five years for improving and
maintaining the park.
Representative McFadden, Repub-
lican, of Pennsylvania, during de-
bate, attacked Henry L. Doherty. a
sponsor of the park. whose Florida
land and hotel holdings, he said,
would be greatly enhanced.
The bill was described by Repre-
sentative Lehlbach, Republican. of
New Jersey as a most perfect illus
tration of super craftsmanship" for
Florida real estate.
Floridas political situation was in
jected into debate by Representative
Treadway, Republican, of Massachu-
sets, who asserted "it was said" Ruth
Bryan Owen, former Florida Repre-
sentative. failed of reelection because
the park bill fell short of passage
during her term.
Wilcox, who was campaigning for
denomination in his home district
and flew here to be present during
consideration of the bill, declared the
bill had no bearing on his political
fortunes in the Florida June 5 pri-
mary.
Owens Message Read.
Treadway countered by reading a
telegram he said he received from Mrs
Owen during her last campaign, ex-
pressing concern lest failure of the
