OVER SEMINARIANS!
Local Boys Play Prominent
Part in Win Teams to
Meet Memorial Day

The La Salette College nine
chaiked up lts NTH victory OF the
season against their ancient rivals,
st. Thomas. at the s'Sem'sp field
in Bloomfield. "Red" Mannering,
veteran La SaIette hurler, and
strikeout king OF greater Hartford,
changed his tactics and instead Of
tanning the opposing batters, he
forced them to hit to his team
mates who played errorless ball.
In this manner he was only
touched for four safe blows. Speer,
the losing pitcher, deserved bet
ter fate, AZ he disposed Of fifteen
batters by way Of the strikeout -out
route, and allowed seven hits. st.
Thomas made two bids for scoring,
but Red" Mannering frightened
down and thereby kept the run
column blank. It was tight base
ball, as it always is between these
rivals, and La ,Salette, despite their
comfortable lead were not sure Of
the ball game until the very last
out.
These two teams will engage
again Memorial Day afternoon at
La Salette.s diamond wherein the
Seminarions will be out for re-
venge; q great game is expected
as well as large crowd.

CROSBY NINE in
DOUBLE HEADER
AT NAUCY FIELD

Naugatuck, May 22.-The Nau-
gatuck high school baseball team
despite the fact 1t has had a most
discouraging season thus far. was
ready with plenty Of confidence for
the Crosby high school team which
will playa double-header this aft
ernoon at the Recreation field. The
first game was to start at 2:45, and
each game will go seven innings,
unless q tie results at the end of
the seventh.
On o comparative scores bases,
Crosby should be the favorite. It
has beaten Wildly which trounced
the Garnet and Gray in Water
bury several weeks. ago. Manga
tuck has only won one game.
It is expected Coach Peter J.
Foley will use .Creddo and Haig in
the box. The former had an OF
day against Torrington last Satur-
day but expects to be In good form
today. Haig did fairly well in nm
ishing the New City game. The To-
cal coach is handicapped by lack
Of good material this year.

Pitchers Do Well Enough.

THE pitchers have been doing what
they could and most have done
well, considering the scant sup
port accorded them af1eld and at bat.
A good ball club, however, needs more
than pitching. There must be intelli-
gent defense, an earnest effort at at
tack and, above all, the will to win.
The Nationals have a lot to pick
up before they enter the pennant
pursuit.
Playing in q lackadaisical manner
at Birmingham yesterday they bowed
to the Barons in a 6-to-4 game. The
Nationals got away well, scoring three
runs off Carlos Moore, right-hander,
who once wore the Washington uniform,
then after the minor leaguers had
punished Monte Weaver plenty in the
first two rounds to go ahead, never ap-
peared to care what happened.
Weaver was all right after he set
tied. but it took him two innings to
do so. He pitched five, allowed four
hits, three passes and five runs in the
first two rounds, then let only one of
the Barons get on in the next three.
Horn, Birmingham lead-of man, who
had singled to start the game. and
tripled in the second inning. got
Texas Lacquer in the fourth.
The only bright spot of Washing
tons part of the program was the
pitching done by young Henry Cop
pola. He had everything in his three
innings he worked Eleven batters
faced him and one got a hit. 1t was
this blow, a double, coming back of
a hit batter that accounted for the
eighth score of the purchase
from Albany.

X Schmeling emerged from his
l. self-imposed "exile" from Ber-
Inns sporting circles today to
announce fatty he would not fight
James ]. Braddock, designated No. l
heavyweight contender by the New
York State Athletic Commission.
Looking fit after a secret trip
through Southern Germany, the for
mer worlds champion declared he saw
no reason why he should be called
upon to face Braddock and pointed
out he already was matched for title
fight with Max Baer.
"Braddock's victory over Art Lasky
was his first important success"
Schmeling said. He didn't show
anything before. Why should I meet
him first when I'm already under con-
tract to fight Baer?"

LOUIS CONVINCING
IN WIN OVER MATTE
Ring Stock Rises and Wave
of Speculation Follows
Decisive Victory.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
~ ETROTT, March 30.-The sag
ging stocks in the prize fight
J market bounded upward on q
wave of speculation today
over the new two-f1sted menace in the
heavyweight ranks-Brown Bomber
Joe Louis-who turned in his seven
teenth straight ring victory last night
by dealing out terrific beating to
Matte Brown of Washington.
The 20-year old Negro battler from
Detroit's Mulberry street. who turned
in his first paid performance in the
glove game last July, did not succeed
in adding Brown to his list of l3
knockout victims, but he won every
one of the 10 rounds, and convinced a
lot of fight experts at the ringside
that he was one of the biggest threats
among the heavyweight title con-
tenders.
Louis is booked for a bout with
Primo Carnera in New York in June,
but his managers expect to let him
put few more fights under his belt
this Spring before he makes his New
York debut against the former title
holder.
