TODANS PORTAPARADE. :. hAa&HaDe
BY HENRY slcLEMoRE

lUnitcU Press StaM COrreSpOnOcnt)
 Daytona Beach, Fla, Feb 28.- (UP)-I have just received word from New York, via Boston, that George Herman Ruth, Babe Bam, Bambino, Swat, King of, Big Man, Big Fellow, Great Man, the Babe, has been engaged by the Boston Braves.
 Naturally, I must write some thing on it. It is, as my colleagues already have pointed out, the largest individual transaction base ball has ever known. The Babe, after almost a quarter of q cen- tury in the flannels of the junior circuit, has transferred to the flan- nels of the senior circuit.
 It is more than a change of flannels. It Is epic. It is sweep ing. It is colossal, terrific, tremen- dous. It is Metro Goldwyn- Mayer ish. It almost out Cecil De Miles at his Cecil de Millish.
 You can't miss the drama of 1t. Let us outline 1t in scenario form:
 Birth. Yowls. Frequent changes. Orphan. All alone. Institution. Drabness.
 Adolescence. Learns he can catch ball thrown by pitcher by using big mitt. Gets mad and throws ball back hard. Becomes pitcher. People hit ball hard. He chases. Tires of this, becomes outfielder. Wearies of pursuing, hits ball back hard. Becomes famed batsman. Hot dogs. Lemonades. Spiked lemonadcs. Stomach aches, more stomach aches. Letter heard round world. Fined. Suspended. Forgiven. Received by president. Sued. Loved. Becomes foster father. $S0,000. Testimonials. Bad legs. Fat tunmy. Tired busi- ness man. Too much Gehrig! Vice president.
 |! Is this the end? Is he shelved 1? Big man, what now? Is he waiting on McKechnie to die? Frankly, l don't know, and that's why writ ing about Ruth, from way down here in Florida, where the beach is bad and Campbell's disposition worse, is a bit troublesome.
 Just what Is Georges job. The whole thing is bit involved. As I understand it, the Braves origin ally wanted greyhounds, and if not greyhounds, at least whippets. They couldn't get 'em. So they wind up with Ruth.
 Furthermore, to make this more involved to all of Us, they have made him a vice president. As the same time they have made him an outfielder, the cleanup man, 'prob- able successor" and Savior of Bos- ton baseball. It seems to me, that the important item about Ruth right now, is, can he cafry the load?
 He goes to Boston past his prime. Behind him, forever, arc the days when he was tops.
 It looks like gamble to me: the gamble of q man who didn't know when to quit. Or, better still, the gamble of man who didn't want to quit.

ROCKVILLE TEAMS ] HERE THIS EVENING

The Rockville Polish American basketball teams - boys and girls = of the State Polish League, will come to Waterbury tonight to face the local Polish teams, A girls preliminary will be staged at 7;45 D. rn., the boys game will begin promptly at 8:45 p. rn., and imme- diately after this game the specta- tors willpbe offered dancing, which will continue until midnight.
 The Rockville girls team is one that has created 6 favorable im- preslson whenever 1t has appeared. The team has only been defeated three times in the. past two sea- sons and has won more than its share of games throughout the state. At the present time the Rockville lassies occupy the top rung in the league with fourteen wins and one loss. i.
 The Waterbury girls expect to offer serious opposition to the in- vaders and plan to play 6 forcing game. Due to the cramped quart CTS of their gym they will be able to play at top speed all during the contest. The team has been ham dicapped all season by smoll sized squad, both in numbers and height. However, the coaches have been bringing the squad along slowly, looking forward to next season and have been using the green members of the team con- siderably during the past three weeks. This has not resulted In victories but the experience gained by the new girls has been bene- ficiaI. However. tonight all the veteran members wil ltake the floor with the idea of offering the Rockville girls as much opposition as possibble. M
 The Rockville boys. although. not as successful as the girls. have. nevertheless caused considerable trouble to the league leaders this season. They are at present in fourth place and hope to advance a peg at the expense of the Brass City Polish youths. .E.
 The local boys, have not had successful season. Victories have been few and far between. Without gymnasium quarters at the begin ming of the season they were off to a slow start and lost seven straight games before registering a win. Their playing has improved con siderably during the last month, and recently defeated Terryvisle 25-23 and held the Mer1den St Stans to an eight point victory. Although they hold the cellar DO. sltion in the league. Athey have not given up hope of pulling out Ofl that spot. There are still f0ur] ganleg on the schedule including

BENNY LEONARD AND CHICK BROWN
 NEXHIBITION
Four Round Bout Planned :; Cocoa Kid and Renanlt
 on Card

New Haven, February go -- Patrons of the punching art, old and new, will flock to the Arena here tonight when Benny Leonard, retired undefeated lightweight champion of the world. squares off against Chic Brown, New Haven southpaw, in a four-round exhibi- ton star bout that will mark the 18th anniversary of their first ring jouse. On that memorable eve ming in the old arena ring. Leon- ard stopped Brown for the first time in the fifth round after Chic made insulting remarks.
 Aside from whatever 1t may pro- vide in the way of action, the Leonard-Brown battle is interesting from a sentimental point of view and 1t occurred to Matchmaker Al Caroly to rematch them when Brown and Leonard were speak
 Scrappers
 For his undercard Caroly has two good eights and nice pair or five spots. In the eight-rounders' Ray Napolitano, of New York, faces Louis Kid Cocoa, of New Haven, and Tiger Jack Renault of Fair Haven, meets Bull Davis, or New London, in a re-match. In the lives Phil Baker, of Norwalk, faces Irish Chuck Connors, of Erie, Pa. and Al Brouillard, of Daniel. son, meets Jerry Maloney, of Mass. The first bout goes on at S:30 o'clock.

GOOD GOLF
 By Bill Klish
LOOKING VERSUS THINKING

Most golfers think about, instead of really look at the ball. When addressing the ball one looks at the top of it; looks at it's back; often you look at your club instead of at your ball. Instead of LOOKING at the ball, you are THINKING, which is fatal. When one thinks instead of looks at the ball, the eyes lose their focus and look out into space; with the result that the thing looked at is seen in- distinctly. I am convinced that this happens to most golfers. They think they are looking at the ball, Ca very different affair than looking), or about how they are going to hit it, or any one of a hum dred other things, when they must will themselves to look. That is before they take the driver in hand they must im- press upon themselves, that at every stroke they must look really an dattentively at the ball. As a matter of fact golf is a stern tester of will power and it is this that makes it so interesting.

GRAND RECREATION BOWLING NOTES

II The leading Pirates kept up their
 lead on the Yankees by winning
 pair of games from the Cubs. Jud Daily had high single with 13l and O'Reilly had high three with S45.
 This latter score enabled Ed to
 climb into the leading five in c
 class. Alexander took the Cubs
 honors, getting 137 single and
 357 total. Art Wooster turned Tn
 nice 133.
 The second place Yankees made
 secure their hold on second place
 by taking their nearest rivals, the Tigers, over for a couple of games.
 J. Mango starred for the Tanks with his 133 and 353 total. Lou
 Martin enjoyed a bad evening,
 knocking off an 84 single and
 totaling only 293. That hurts Lou.
 McHugh enjoyed a big evening,
 taking Joe, Palmer over for couple of game. J. Brick hit them
 for the Tigers, getting IA single
 and 363 total. George Byrnes had
 night off and blamed himself for their two game loss.
 The Giants with five men on. the field took over the Red Sox for two. Mike Carlos 137 single and 346 total led the attack. Pater- noster had an of night, totaling only 319. Rudy HamePs 120 and 349 total lead the Sox. Harry
 Ackerman, after being absent one
 week, came down with bowling
 shoes and knocked off a 2S9 total.
 The shoes do not prevent Harry from going over the foul line. The shoes are for sale. Our guess Is that the holiday was too much for Jack Keating as he failed to show up.
 The surprise of the week was the "A's" victory over the Braves.
 Lou Piedmonte with 129 and 325 total did not look big but Lou got them when he needed them. winning two games in the last two boxes. Al Roden lead the Braves with 134 and 35G. Swede Larson only turned in q SIS total. As the Chase Companies finished their league schedule we suppose there Is no hope Of bowling their IS or 20-man teams as We have challenged. We have yet to hear from the Beverage or Elks' club leagues. = l On our honor roll this week in-. clude: J. Brick. 363; Alexander. 357; Roden, 356; Mango. 353; R. Hamel, 349; Carlo, BAG; o'Reilly. 345. #a

week. He won the first game sin 'gle-handed.
 That famous Princeton team keeps up it's winning ways but not because they are hitting big scores. Jim Lombardi, Tony Lupope, Jim Novelli, Charles Cecilio and Father Nadile are all set fos the grand prize, but will have to fight every inch of the way. Remember last year!
 Jumping Joe J. Piazza and Johnny Perrella want.a new anchor man and for once they are deserv- ing of one after the exhibition Johnny gave last week.
 D. Guerrera and his famous hook ball are well known all over tlc league dhd no doubt he will want more money for his services next year.
 Almost forgot to mention tue fact that Chirpin Chick Toletti rolls with the Princeton team and will share in the grand prize.
 Secretary Joe Genova will he glad when it Is all over.
 Wonder what happened to the popular Febo Guarini last week. Maybe the high price tag that he put on little Freddie DiFronzo kept him busy trying to figure out what he would do when and if he collected the money.
 Race Track Louie Styles Pied monte, the dashing dermitician from way out East is leading the league and the boys are wondering if this will bring any marriage pro- posals for the gallant Lou.
 Patrick J. Zackary Zack, the boy with the big vocabulary and the very little neck will give an ex- hibtion of horse back riding next Sunday morning in his own back yard. No admission will be charged but ali arc requested to bring an armfuI of hay so that Pat will land Carmjne Cnpobianco and Frankie Manfredi are known as the Gold Dust Twins and are always in great form when they roll the lead ing Princeton team. Eleven victor les out of twelve games rolled is a great record against any first place team anywhere, anytime and any place.
 Can anybody tell us where Lonesesome Louie Mucciaro's bsg scores have gone to since Dancing Dan Perugini came into the league?
 Thumbnails descriptions of some of the bowlers:
 Jim Gaglione--The lights turned off.
 J. Matty-A Praying Colonel.
 !. Sirni--A record breaker.
 M. DIFronzo---A born leader.
 J. Spadaro--What a noisy stork brought in.
 J. Metz-A fast express
