LADY OF LOURDES BOWLING NOTES

Brother Joe Lombardi and his band of sensational pin .topplers gave Brother Jim Lombardi and his teammates an artistic shellacE- ing to the tune of three games to a big zero. The Princeton team has been beaten six straight games and their lead has been cut considerably. It Is just too bad that the league terminates iu three weeks because the Princeton team is hitting the skids and 1t would have made a closer race. The teams in the second division are as closely punched as those In the first and a great finish is looked forward to.
 The strong Dartmouth team took it on the chin for two games and a winning streak was snapped. Jumping Joe Sirni with out the aid of Snappy Joe Matty, who was on the injured list helped his team to victory over the Indians. President A. J. Masone was on hand and gave his usual great exhibition but received very little support from his teammates. Joe Geneva, Al Muccine and Carmen Barone were in shape for the encounter but No- Neck Zak, Ace Gaglione and Lone some Lou Piedmonte were too strong for Johnny Mango & Go.
 The celebrated Notre Dame team put on the brakes and as result slipped a little bit in the standing. Little Freddie DiFronzo who has been sold to the Dartmouth team for $12 was away off and his two low scores hurt his teammates. Little Freddie came through in the last game and won single handed for his team, thereby redeeming himself. Manager Febo Guarini held out for a larger price but Jerry Capobianco, captain of the Notre Dame team has already signed the papers whereby their star bowler becomes the property of4the Dartmouth team. The deal Is the first for the coming season and 1t looks like a summer of many sales, trades and exchange of players and the stove league gossip is that Al Mucci sensational

TO-DA Y,S SPORT PARADE

turned in by the janitor of the Medicine Hat Opera House on a Tuesday morning. It read:
 Dear Sir: Four guys in picnic pants slipped in last night when around the floor hitting at some thing that bounced. Two of the guys finally quit swinging on the bouncing thing and started swing ing at one another. One was tail was hanging out. The other was a tall drink of water with a bald spot. About II o'clock the opera house phone rang and the fellow they called Les or something like that answered it. I'll be right over, Honey he said, Just. as soon as I part Gus and Tillie.' After while they left"
 Since that night no one, so far as I can learn, has heard of the party. It was reported that Lott has been seen at Santa Anita han dicap, but this clue was abandoned when it was learned that the man thought to be Lott had been seen cashing winning ticket. This uellllllcly pTONSu u WISH | 1eOFSe.
 My own guess as to their here abouts is this: Vines, having in- vested nickel in a Philadelphia chewing gum machine thaht didn't work, early on the trip, has re- turned to get it. Stoefen, playing a doubles match, went so far out of position, that he got lost. And Lott and Tilden arc up in a clear ing in the northwoods having it out.
 If they don't return the exact standing of the battle for the pre- fessional tennis championship is going to be left in a frightful mud dule, for at the time of their dis appearance, nothing had been de- finitely proved. Tilden was lead ing Lott by only 45 matches to II which, in professional tennis, is hardly convincing. AndN Vines held the narrowest edge over Stoc- fen, having won oly 93 times to Stoefen's 50. In doubles it was anybody's title, with Lott and

 DEFEAT IMP
Gigantic Rivals in Fine Shape For Super-Dread-
 naught Battle Friday

Primo Camera today was a 3 to 1 favorite to whip Rya Impellet- tiere, his experienced opponent, in their 10-round bout tomorrof night in Madison Square garden. Hanging in the balance is a bout with the winner of the Art Lasky- James J. Braddock match March 22, as another tsep toward a crack at Max Baer and the title.
 The choice of Camera in the
 "suDer- er-dreadnaught" match is based on his record of nearly 10 fight for. every one on the "Imps' record.
 An examination by Dr William Walker, athletic commission phy- sician, revealed that both men are in perfect shape and Harry Lenny, the big Imp's manager, said there would be no alibis in case of defeat. Impellettiere will weigh in at about the same figure as Camera, 260, and will be an inch taller with corresponding reach advantage. He towers feet z 1-2 inches, and is good puncher and fast, clever boxer.
 Because of the size of the men and lack of referees capable of handling them, Jack Dempsey is expected to be named third man. He has been appointed along with others to serve on the card, but in keeping with the athletic commits sion rules, bouts will be allotted at the ringside.

 Branch Hickey coached George
 Harold Sisler at the. University of
 Michigan, Sisler. was left-handed
 pitcher.
 When Sisler reported to the St Louis Browns, managed by Hickey
 in Chicago in 1915, he was pre- sented with a half dozen first base man mitts. Say that Hal Chase was the greatest first baseman who ever played the game, and you'll. get an
 argument from a lot of fellows
 who aren't exactly graybeards, and who think that Rickey's decision to convert Sisler into q first sacker produced the games best.
 Hickey first saw Rogers Hornsby as thin kid playing shortstop for the Cardinals, which is where he put the Texan when he became manager of the St Louis club.
 Chick Hafey was recommended to Hickey by a friend in California as a pitcher. The bespectacled ath- lete was signed to a Syracuse farm contract, and given instructions to report at Bardenton. Fla, in 1923. In the usual pre-game batting practice, the pitchers take a few swings before going to the outfield to siag flies while the regulars hit. Hafey was one l!of ene recruits pitching that day.
 Hickey and Coach Joe Sugden were sitting on the bench when Hafey went to plate for his turn with the willow. Hafey came through with three Or four drives that landed in the distant palmetto trees. Hickey gave vent to his pet expression, Judas Priest!" He called Hafey to the bench, and told the tall youngster that he never wanted to see him pitch again.
 "You will go to the Cardinals as a hitter" he told Hafey. T never have seen you play the outfield, but you will learn that. From now on you take your turn in batting prac- tice with the regulars

Harry McCurdy, attenoed the University of Illinois, and was signed by the Cardinals as a first baseman. The day he reported, Rickey handed him a catcher's mitt.

All: A Tale of Easy Pickings

lAC otoiy 6OSSg
 Once upon a time in the wildss of Africa, the, monkeys developed a system of. removing coconuts from the trees. It was designed to save time. Some of the monkeys climbed the, trees every morning and picked coconuts, dropping them to other monkeys that stayed on the ground and caught the nuts.
 Each group developed, such a facility that the various coconut pickers could perform their task without looking. and the monkeys on the ground could catch the CO., counts out of the air with an aban- don and grace which was pleas ure to watch.
 This went on for years. The children of the cQconut pickers be- came coconut pickers. The off, spring of the cooconut snatchers became coconut snatchers.
 A sort of. class consciousness and pride developed. But. alas. one day one of the coconut snatchers and two of the coconut pickers of one particular family got sick after eating something or other.
 This disarranged the coconut gathering setup. and finally one of the older monkeys suggested that a coconut snatcher might be able to pick coconuts. and thus bring
