HOP BROOKS RALLY
 TO BEAT GENERALS

Naugatuck, May 10-The Hon Brook baseball team staged a last inning rally to score three runs and trim the Central avenue nine in an exciting game played at the old Firemen's field yesterday after- noon, the score being 5-4. The Central avenue team seemed all set going into the first of the sev- enth inning, which was the last. leading, Az. However, Hop Brook got to Farrar's offerings for time- ly hits and tied the score and a single by Garlinski with two men on base scored Allen with the winning run. There were two out at the time
 Central avenue could do nothing in their half of the seventh inning. Stanley Laguna pitched for Hop Brook and D. Finaterri caught; John Farrar pitched for the losers with Jere Sirica behind the plate.
 This puts Hop Brook in a tie for the league lead with Salem sthreet, the former having won two and lost none, and Salem has won one and lost none. In the other game St Hedwig's easily trounced Prospect, 9-1, in a contest played at Recreation field.

HARNESS HORSE 0 W NER COMPETE MALE AND FEMALE
Lady and Gentleman Drive CTS Becoming More
 Numerous

New York, May 10. -(Special) -Discarding the theory that rac- ing horses is only for professional jockeys enjoyment, as far as ac- tive participation is concerned, the gentleman driver, and now his lady, have forged to thief ront so rapidly as keen rivals for honors on the American harness turg that more horses are in urgent demand to keep this amateurish, but clev- CT, class of sportsdom not in the saddle, but the sulky.
 Following the dictates of other sports, in that the way to enjoy them is to participate in them, owners of trotting horse stables are letting the running horse own- CT remain satisfied, if he will, with the services of a professional jock, while he goes out and races his own stable of sizzling trotters and pacers in person. Once be- lieved to be too strenuous for Milady, women have prved that palming stopwatch, whip and reins, while holding spirited colt to his gait, is as much their forte as IL IS lle mere maleS.
 With amateur and matinee driv- ing clubs springing up throughout the country this spring, E. F. Hartman of New York, ardent gentleman pilot wh0 has turned his historic track ct Goshen, N. r., over to the newly formed Ham, bletonian Sulky and Saddle club for training and racing delcared to-day that:
 Amateur reinsmen and their feminine counterparts, after all, are one of the greatest backbones of the sport. Other equine &C., tivities, by their very nature, re- strict the personal enjoyment of them by their sponsors, but in the trotting horse game we've got something in which the owner can get as much fun out of racing as the professional"

(By the Observer)

Enthusiasm is on the increase these days among the Squires as they are now less than one week away from their first annual Min strel and Dance. Each member is doing his best in aiding MT Wal lace, chief counselor, to make the show great success. The setting for the show is the Waterbury Women's club, Thursday evening, May 16. The curtain will rise on what is expected to be one of the best shows of the season.
 On Wednesday evening at the club rooms the Squires held their regular monthly meeting at which John Lynch, in the absence of Chief Squire James Phelan, Jr, presided. At the meeting all plans were completed for the minstrel show. It was decided that at the next meeting the charter class, having completed the nine-months of service required, would receive their prizes.
 Chief Counselor Wallace told all the boys to be present at the club rooms Sunday afternoon at 2 2 o'clock for the first dress re- hearsal.
 Sport Chatter
 Although the minstrel show is occupying a great deal of the boys time they still find time for their favorite sports, which include baseball, golf, horseback riding, track and tennis.
 Doc" Corey, the boy behind the bat, is still having quite a battle with Ed Fitzgerald for catching honors.
 Johnny Lynch Is still holding his own at first base, although Greg Gilmartin is turning out to be real slugger.
 Second base is the most contest ed position on the team with all the following boys striving to make 1t: Ray Cronan, Fran Lane, Joey Stevens and Pese Luddy. May the best man win!
 John Slavin seems to be all alone at shortstop and plenty capable of 1t, too, although rumors are float ing around that little Ben Daly may try his skill at that position.
 Charlie Conneil and owen Kyle are neck and neck on third base, both boys having plenty of talent.
 George Corcoran, Jimmie Phe- Ian, Fred Harmon and Doc Calvin still go in string for horseback riding.
 Jim Luddy and Rob Carr are very deeply interested in golf and would like to start q team real soon.
 Bin Savage looks like a real boa

he. got to whip me with? All right, a pretty good right hand, but that's all. His legs are gone. and so IS his wind. His only chance is to knock me out real early. and that ain't a chance because I'll be mov- ing so fast and sticking so much fist ip his face, he'll never get set for a punch. Hell, I'm as good as lightweight champion right now"
 It's a shame neither of the par ticipants would come out fiatly and claim victory, but then modesty is so rare in professional athletes. particularly prizefighters. that I don't suppose we should condemn them. It does make the selection of a winner a bit difficult, though, for you can't, in making Q choice. just ignore Canzoneri's respect for An- bers, and Ambers' admiration for Tony.
 But luckily I made my choice q few days ago, and will stick to 1t. It looks like Ambers to me, with Tony's only hope knockout in the first four or five rounds. If 1t goes past that, and I think it wills Tony's going to get awfully. awfuls ly tired. And this Ambers Is q powerful unhealthy gent to have out there in front of you when ycu get those weary, weary, go-away- misery blues.

GOOD GOLF
 By BILL KLISH

If a golfer is a continuous sIicer and wishes ready re- lief, the best cure is to play the ball of the advanced left foot and MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW THROUGH. By this I mean that the left foot is very far advanced; about a foot ahead of the right, in other words this is . very exaggerated closed stance. With this stance, if a ball Is hit with any force, the club will naturally come to the ball from the inside and will finish on the outside of the line of flight. If the impact of the club head against the ball was weak, the ball would just merely be pushed to the right, but would not be a slice. One must always make sure to follow through and the result of the shot will be a hook nine times out or ten; and the result of the hit with force will be a straight ball. This is an ideal tip for the habitual slicer; he should practice this in his games
 and after a while gradually advance the right foot until it is even with the left. If the slice comes back. put the right foot back again.

CHILE AGAIN TO

 US. HORSE SHOW
Military Jumpers to COm-
 pete in New York in November
Special To The Democratl

NOP~SASAA 4V 4UC OClAhOCEdkV
 New York, May 10-The Chil- can Army jumping team, which performed so creditably at Mad ison Square Garden last fall, will again compete in the National Horse Show this November, acc 'cording to announcement made here last night by J. Spencer Weed, president of the National Horse Show Association. MT Weed has just received word from Manuel Trucco, Chilean Ambassador at Washington, reporting the accep- tance by the Chilean government of the invitation which was ex- tended through the United States Department of State.
 The first military jumping team ever to represent country south of the Equator, the Chileans, led by Captain Eduardo Yanez, took home with them many prizes won at the Garden and at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto immediate ly after the National. The Chileans finished second in the high-score military jumping which carried over the first three days of the National, being defeated only by hte United States Army team. In the International Military team contest they finished fourth be- hind France, the United States and Canada. In the open classes, competing against the foremost civilian entries as well as the mill itary, the team accounted for a number of hard-won prizes.
 Attractions!
 One of the features of this years show will be the military high score competition in which the major award again will be the Challenge Trophy presented by His Excellency Arturo Alessandri, President of Chile. It will be the major endeavor of this years Chil- can team, the personnel of which has not yet been indicated, to cap- ture leg on the prize which must be won three times by the same country before becoming per- manent possession of any entrant.
 Commenting on the acceptance by the Chilean Government of the National Horse Show Association's invitation, MT Weed said:
 We are certainly happy that relations with South America, be- gun in the fifty-first year of the Nationals existence, are continu- ing and feel complimented that the Chileans have again decided that Jumping in our military con- tests IS worth another round trip of 5,335 miles each way. The off, ficers from Chile have shown horsemanship of the highest and their smiling sportsmanship has made everyone like them"

Use Of Aluminium Alloy In New Reels
 Makes Accurate Casting Easier
BY JIMMY DONAHUE NEA Service Sports Writer

The greatest development in bait casting reels since the level wind and anti-backlash devices were installed, is introduced to fishermen in two new reels mak- ing their appearance this season. This is the use of aluminium alloy in construction.
 Inspection of these two reels is sure to be a revelation to the uninitiated this year. To anyone accustomed to manipulating the old style steel reels, which quick ly tire the wrist made soft during a winter of inactivity, the lack Of weight in these two reels is sur- prising.
 One is constructed entirely of aluminium alloy, while the other has only the spool made of this material.
 The big advantage of this type of construction is the ten dency to eliminate backlashes. Tn the old style reel, with the steel or bronze spool, momentum after a cast was so great that the line, if the spool was not thumbed properly, over-ran itself due to the speed of the spindle once it was started in motion. With the alu- minum spool, however, the ten dency to over-run the line is elimi- mated because of the lightness of this part of the reel.
 Another advantage of this light type of reel is that it lends itself to better balance when used with

Giants Going Great at Present-WaIters Beat
 Cards With 4 Hits

(Umited Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, May 10-(UP)-Dar- rell Elijah Blanton, the Pirate rookie with the ''blooper' ball, was charged with his first defeat today. and Johnny Whitehead of the White Sox carried on alone for the first year men.
 Until Blanton's 3 to o defeat yes terday by the Giants, the two youngsters had travelled neck-and- neck as the first unbeaten four- game winners of the season. Carl Hubbell. the Giants screwballer. snapped Blanton's string.
 The Pirate ace, with a screwbalI of his own that hutters in like a butterfly, mixed with the new "blooper," rising fast ball that explodes into drop almost at right angles, had compiled the outstand- ing record of the season until the Giants won their 18th in l5 starts to set him back.
 He whipped the Cardinals and gave them only one hit in his de- but. then trimmed them . second time; he held the Reds to six hits. confounded the Dodgers into three-hit licking, and won two of those four by shutouts.
 Hubbel Was King
 He managed to strike out six Giants yesterday to bring his rec ord in five games and one inning of relief to 36, and he halted the Giants home run attack that has blasted other hurlers, but HubbelI came the nearest to doing the shut out pitching.
 Each allowed eight hits. The Giants managed to group theirs for runs, while the Pirates made their only score on Vaughan's sixth hom- CT in the eighth.
 Brooklyn made only five hits, but beat Cincinnati, with six, s to 1.
 Tex Carlton held the Braves to five hits and the Cubs remained in third place with a 5 to l victory. Berger's homer in the ninth gave the Braves their only run.

 Hard to Hit Harder
 Mel Harder gave the Yankees three hits. his mates made seven off Red Rufing and Malone and took advantage of two errors for an easy victory in battle that was called after the fifth on account of rain.
 The White Sox lost for the first time at home in Il starts, but averted a shutout by scoring run in the ninth. Wes Terrell allowed only eight hits, while Les Tietje and Vernon Washington were pounded for IS.
 In the only other American League game, the Browns broke a 10-game losing streak with a to 2 victory over the Athletics, who were held to six hits by Dick Coff- man.

NSAAAeS0 A ANoo AoeAhA SOhEGBLpOuuCAhLE
 New York, May 1O-(UP)-With almost painful reticence, tn e Messrs Tony Canzoneri of Brook lyn and Lou Ambers of Herkimer, N. Y., today told me how they felt about their fight for the light weight championship of the world in Madison Square Garden tonight.
 Canzoneri, cornered in a room of his Marlboro farm training camp. and smelling a bit horse- linimentish, alternately blushed and stammered when the question was put him. He looked and acted after the manher of little Milton giving off the Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" number in honor of the superintendent visit. Finally, I managed to get him to hint at what he thought was in store for Ambers.
 -Four rounds for the chump, four rounds" Tony shyly said. "One good right on the potato and they'll drag him out of there. l ain't after the money this time-I got plenty of that. All I want to do is to show you writing guys, who are picking Ambrosia or whatever his name is, that Tony still packs what it takes. And if he comes run- ming out there waving his arms at me like I've seen him do against other guys, I'll knock his head off in one heat. Anything else you wanta know?"
 Confident
 That's not very definite state- ment, of course, but it's the best I could worm out of him. And if you'll read between the lines you'll catch the suggestion that Tony feels he has at least an even chance.
 Ambers was even more evasive. Honestly, he was shy as fan dancer, close-lipped as racetrack tout, and indefinite as the Fourth of July.
 "What'll I do to that old gent, Canzoneri?" he asked in a voice quiet with the quietness of truck backfire, well, I'll tell you what I'll do to him. I'll cut him to rib- bons. I'll slash him full of slits. Ill-"
 Quit beating around the bush. MT Ambers," I said. Come to the point"
 How can I lose to him, I ask you?" continued Ambers. What's
