Yet now there are definite signs that
kickback has set in Some of the
most severe critics are found explaining
the ground for their criticism in de-
fensive tones. Others are tempering
their attacks as a reaction to the scope
of the fiare-up of resentment at their
previous attitude.
One malicious attack has concerned
the Presidents health and mental con-
dition. Whispering campaigns, now
brought into the open, really were of
wider extent than most people realized.
Their sponsors If expecting effective re-
suits, timed their whisperings badly.
Mr.. Roosevelt's appearances before
scores of gatherings during the weeks
ahead will effectively scotch the back
yard gossips. Actually, as all can testify
who have seen him recently, the Presi-
dent never has been in finer fettle, men,
tally and physically.
But his attackers have other things
to think about, too. One is that by their
attacks they have helped to make the
President more aggressive He feels it
necessary to go out year ahead of time
to let the people look him over and to
give them some of his ideas. The pros
pect is that he will want to reveal that
he has lost none of the stamina that
proved too much for those who had to
follow him in the campaign of 1892.
Besides, the attacks on the President
and his plans not only have stirred Mr..
Roosevelt but they have stirred those
who have benefited from the New Deal
programs.
The result is that farmers are getting
together to battle for the A. A. A. And

New York, April 13-UP)-- There has been entirely too much of the old rigamarole written about the present heavyweight boxing situation. only partly cleared up by the Gardens selection of James J Braddock.
 For the past month the boys who cover cauliflower alley and it's side streets. have told of angels, tri- angles, intrigue, plots. sub-plots, pacts, crosses and double-cr
 It's not that involved at all. Tn fact it's all very simple. Let's take the thing apart. and examine it piece by piece. First there's Max Baer's talwk of fighting Schmeling in Europe, with Walter Rothen- burg of Hamburg, promoting. You may throw that out. Baer has no earthly idea of fighting anywhere but in this country. Let me tell you why: 6.t fs
 In the first place, Promoter Rothenburg is about as stable as a free balloon., In the past two weeks he has suggested a Baer-Schme]- ing fight for CD Berlin. .(2) Lon. don, (3) Rome. and (4) Vienna. When he suggested Berlin he said Hitler would be the man behind 1t. Something happened to Hitler 50 Rothenburg moved 1t to Lon don as a part of King Georges silver jubilee. .a
 King George must have demand ed too many Annie Oakleys, for the next cable brought an an- nouncement that Premier Benlto Mussolini craved the fight, and that it would go to the Coliseum in Rome. With Il Duce in the box office, Ruthenburg announced. the fight couldn't miss making a mil lion. The hell it couldn't. A couple of years ago Mussolini had the fas. cist troops out giving castor oil tc everybody who wouldn't buy tickets to see Camera defend his cham. pionship against Pauline. and stil the fight did only $71.000. What it more, the biggest fight gate Italy oi any other European nation ever saw was the $140.000 Schmelin and Neusel drew in Hamburg.

Tree Helped Wood Out Of Tight Spot
 On Second Hole In Augusta Tourney

One of the finest shots ever made under the strain of com petition was executed by Craig Wood on the second hole of the ! final round of the first annual Masters Tournament at the Agus. ta National Golf Club last year. After a bad tee shot that found the woods to the right of the fair way, Wood tried to play fade shot to the green. The ball was played well, and looked as if it | might reach its objective; 1t hit q tree, however, and bounded back further into the trees, coming to rest squarely in the middle of a spread-out newspaper.
 To approach the green from this position, Craig would have to play a No. 3 iron back toward the tee, or else shoot for an opening in the trees 75 yards away. This opening was 30 yards wide, and 100 yards 1 to the right of the green.
 Choosing the latter approach Wood selected tree in the open ing as a target, figuring to hit the bank to the right of the green. If this was successful, the ball prob ably would careen off and roll to- ward the green. where he would be in position to get possible five | or sure six.
 Taking No. 4 iron, Wood whaled away. True to his aim, the ball hit a branch of the tree. bounded on to the green, and rol- led within half an inch of the cup He holed out for par four.

STORYTELLING FORCES GARDEN TO GIVE BRADD0CK CHANCE

New York, April 13s-(UP)--
 Dockwalloping James J. Braddock of New Jersey found himself at the payoff end of the comeback
 trail today as he and Fidgety Joe
 Gould, his manager, prepared to
 sign as Max Baer's challenger for
 the world heavyweight champion ship on June 6.
 The match was closed for him by the one man who might have proved an obstacle--Max Schmel- ing. who told Promoter James J. Johnston of the Garden by trans
 Atlantic telephone from Germany last night that he would not meet Braddock in an elimination.
 Johnston will ask the commits sion for the June 6 date--a switch from June IS. He ordered the Gar den's Long Island City bowl made ready for the champions first de- fense since he smashed Carnera into a helpless hulk in Il rounds. Johnston laughed off the likeli-
 hood of Braddock and Gould balk- ing, although they said they would hold out for IT 1-2 per cent.

BY FRANK MURPHY

 Boston (UP) The name of Eddie Shore is bound to pop up when they're considering "Thc Greatest Sports Comebacks of 1885,"
 Goat" of the National Hockey League a year ago when he was banished for 16 games after his near-fatal collision with Ace Bailey, Shore came back to play the finest hockey of his career during the past season.
 Led Defcnscnen
 The Boston Bruin powerhouse contributed seven goals and 26 assists for 33 total points. to lead all the leagues defensemen by a wide margin.
 Only in 1932-33, when he had 35 points, did Shore make better offensive showing, and then his effectiveness was offset consider ably by the 102 minutes he spent nthe penalty box. With wisdom born of experience Eddie stuck to his knitting this year, spending the amazingly small number of 32 minutes in the coop. Even last year, when he was out total cf IS games, he spent 57 minutes in confinement.
 Scoring Record For a defenseman Shore has a remarkable all-time scoring record. In his nine seasons with the Bruins he has 88 goals and 130 assists for a total of 21S point, an average of 24 per season. In total points, King Clancy of Toronto is about Is points lower for nine seasons, and no other defenseman even is close.
 Owner Charles Francis Adams Of the Bruins, recognizing Eddie's great work, has awarded him the "President's Cup" a new trophy 10 be given annually to any Boston player who does outstanding duty during a season.

 TOSEE SPECTACLE
Roy Lager, Eighteenth ViC-
 tim of Detroit NegrO's Fists
By GEORGE KIRKsEY

United Press Stan Correspondent)
 Chicago, April 13- (UP)-The echo of Joe Louis lethal punches today drummed warningly against Max Baer's ears. The heavyweight champion last night sat in a ring side seat and watched the stone- faced Detroit negro slash down Roy Lager, scoring his eighteenth straight ring triumph and moving nearer title bout with Baer.
 Louis knocked out Lazer after 2 minutes, 28 second of the third round before 19,641 persons who paid $44,641 to see the bout. It was the years biggest indoor place in the world.
 Louis weighed 1s6 1-2, Lager 192.
 Until last night Baer took Louis casually. Once he walked out on him during fight. But he didn't walk out last night. He sat and watched solemnly every move of the poker-faced Louis.
 He got in the ring and shook hands with him, wished him luck and then started clowning. As he left the ring, he turned his back on the negro, sidestepped, and broke into a half run. The crowd laughted.
 It may be the last laugh Baer will get at Louis expense. When Baer left the ring he stop- : M kidding and for the first time since he became champion paid serious attention to another fighter.
 He watched Louis intently and ap parently made mental notes. Baer the boxing game that he will have to defend his title against the De- troit negro sooner or later. The first punch landed sent La- ger on the road to his first defeat in 36 bouts. The scowling, heavy bearded Patterson, N. J., boy was frightened when he came out at stalked him, and laid stiff right punch on his jaw. From then on
 Lager was fighting Q game but
 losing battle. Before the first round was over Louis had opened a streaming gash over his left eye. Louis fought cautiously in the
 second round, scoring effectively as he caught up with Lager in re-
 treat. The third round produced
 the thrills. A short left hook flush
 on Lazer's chin dropped him for a nine count. When he came up
 Louis rushed him, ripped both l fists to the head several times and
 Lager went down for another nine count. Heswas barely able to rise. Lazer staggered against the ropes and Louis caught him there. A one-two punch knocked the Jer- sey Hebrew unconscious.

NAUCATUCK NET TEAM IN FINALS
 FORSTATE TITLE
Three Teams in Competi= ton on Borough Court
 To-day

Haugatuck, April 13-The Naug- atisck "" volley ball team is fa- yored to win the state volley ball title this afternoon when the 1i- rlalg will be played at the local Y. M. c. A.. Only three teams will, compete, Manager Edgar Wy att announced today, these being Bridgeport, South Manchester and Naugatuck. Westport with Bridge port was scheduled to represent but MT. Wyatt received a letter from this town stating the com hine had been weakened recently , by loss of two of their best men ! and would be unable to compete today.
 Naugatuck and South Manches- ter won their way into the finals last Saturday in a tourney at Bristol. The tourney will start at 3o'clock 3 and will be a round rob- in. that is, each team will play the other two teams three sgames each. The winner of the most games will be the winner of the tourney. If tie in the num- Der of games won results, the two teams tied will probably play a match to decide the issue.
 Bill Reid of Torrington, who officiated at Bristol last Saturday, will do the refereeing, it is ex- pected. Naugatuck has beaten South Manchester all this season but this team is expected to give the locals their hardest battle. Bridgeport is a team which may surprise but ordinarily should be beaten by the locals. Over-confi- dence is one thing which the To- cal team will have to avoid.
 Naugatuck, April 13--One game has been added to the Naugatuclt high school baseball schedule, Principal Charles r. Slade an nounced today. This is one with Watertown high scheduled for May IA in Naugatuck. Up to now the first game on the local sched- ule Is one with Torrington here on April 27.

COLLEGE STARS
 IN FAR W EST
 FOR TRACK MEET
By JAMES .O'BRIEN

United Press Stan Correspondent
 Berkeley, Calif (UP)-For the second successive year the out standing track stars of the nation will converge on the Pacific Coast for the crescendo of the track and field season--the National Collegi- ate Athletic Association meet.
 The meet, held in the Los An. geles Coliseum last year, is sched- . uled for June 21 and 22 al Ed wards Field, on the University of California campus. Previously, the meet never had been held outside of the middle west.
 N.C.A.A. acceptance of Coast settings on two successive years heightens the already towering prominence of the Far West in track and field competition.
 This latest recognition comes after decades when coast stars were forced to reverse the words of Horace Greedy and go east fl they were to attain national recog- milton in big events.
 ', The Olympic Games of 1892 was responsible for bringing the first nationally prominent meet to the Pacific Coast. In that year the University of California enter tained the I.C.A.A.A.A. contendcrs
 Most of the I.C! A-A partici- pants journey to Stanford Univer- sity--a few piles away--for. the Olympic Games trials. Thus it was there, that the world cham pionship track team was shaped and moulded.
 The holding of the NC. 4-A meet at the University of Califor- mia makes this school the only ir- stitution in the nation to play host to both of the great rival asso- citations of track history.
 z" Major John l.. Griffith, N.C.A.A commissioner, at last years meet ing, expressed the desire to hold the meet on the coast annually. Il Is his plan to alternate the nation. al meeting between the San Frans cisco and Los Angeles areas.
 If the meet at Berkeley proves l success, speaking from a financia' standpoint, this plan may be car ried out.
 Already the N.C.A.A. has takef strides that give 1t. an edge over the older I.C. IA. One Of the factors in this rapid growth is tha, the N,C.A.A. does not restrict it: competitions to organization mem bers and their guests. It is open I: all college. athletes in the natio1 who are in good academic stand
