Eddie Lovesky, former Waterbur- ian, will be seen in the lineup of Our Lady of Wilma quintet of Wor- cester, tomorrow evening at St. Joe seph's hall, when his quintet stacks up against the strong St. Joseph's Big Five in @ return contest. The Waterbury five scored a one-point 24.23 victory over the Bay Staters in the first of the series of games at Worcester several weeks ago. Lo- vesky has been the sparkplug in the success of the Worcester Lithuanian team since he joined them three months ago, the team dropping but @ few games and are in second place standing in the Worcester GAL.

Wally Pranskaitis and Frankie Saldukas, former Crosby and Wilby high stars will be seen in action with St. Jo- seph's, along with Captain Willie Baron, Eddie Ragis, Joe and Frank Griska, Harry Huey, Joe Swasey, zachs and Clem Balanda.

Joseph Fife and Drum corps team, and immediately after, the St. Jo- seph Alumnae clash with another strong girl outfit. Due tothe mission being held the main attraction will not get started until 9:30, with John A. Cluney officiating.

And what's the use of running the risk of getting yourself hurt when you got enough money to get along on?"
 It wasn't easy to get the Babe to talk baseball, for as fast as the talk was brought around to the game he'd switch 1t to golf. Asked what clubs he liked this year, he answered:
 "Well, my drivers been doing all right by me but think my niblick is my favorite. It's plenty hot"
 "No, not golf clubs, baseball clubs we prompted.
 "Oh, those kind of clubs. Okay, it'll be strictly between the Tigers and the Indians in the American, with the Red Sox pulling in third. The Yankees'll get fourth-if they're lucky.

 Briefly, the four most attractivgs bouts of 10 to be presented tonight at Buckingham hall, in the opinion of the writer, are listed above, with any one of them more than prob- ably presenteing the fans with q sense of satisfaction that their time and money has been we'll spent, regardless of the outcome of the other bouts. And, on 10-bout program there are sure to be one or two others that may provide more excitement than is possible to figure in advance, notably the Spir0 Morris and Mickey Impronto bout from Bridgeport and Meriden.
 Promising
 Tn signing Spec Wiley of Union City to battle Gormley, Matchmaker Jack Cleary has rounded out &, nice-looking list of bouts. In book ing Buff and Alberts there is every reason to anticipate rousing slugs. fest with Q knockdown or two not improbable though the ability of both boys to "take 1t" will probably call for three rounds of action to decision.
 Classy
 Charley Leonard the Willimanti6 welterweight is one of the best boys in Connecticut at his weight, and should Jimmy De Costa be "off his game" he will be in for 8 thorough going over. Paul Warren of Meridei1 and Joe Cooper of New Haven, Paul Gagnon, Emil Etters, Tony Slovak, Sam Maltempo and other boys will be in action throughout the evening while George Hovey of Wilimantic and Nat Kolin of New York should also provide bout that will be well worth looking at from strat to finish.
 AS an incentive the men folks to bring their wives and girl friends, 8 half-price admission will be charged for women with the first bout lists ed for action at 8:30 o'clock. ss4

New England
 Sports SlantS Of Keen Interest
BY FRANK MURPHY


 United Press Stan COrrespOndent)
 Boston, March 13.--(UP).-Along New England sport trails:
 A return match between Jack Sharkey and Tony Shucco may be the next feature bout at Boston Garden now that the Lou Brouil- lard-Johnny Rossi affair has been cancelled. Although Manager Johnny Buckley minimizes Brouil- lard's arm injury, it's known that Lou has visited half dozen doctors. .Coincident with the disability comes Brouillard's six-month sus- pension by the French foxing fed- eration for protesting too forcibly when he lost on foul to Marcel Thil. The suspension wrecks the Brouillard-Thil outdoor bout which was in prospect for next summer. .
 On His Game
 Rabbit Maranville's limp seems to have disappeared according to dis- patches from St. Petersburg, where the veteran is vacationing. |. Maranville says he intends to play regularly with his Elimra club. :. One St. Petersburg paper is pub- fishing professional hockey results for the especial benefit of northern writers covering the baseball teams. The case of Eddie Moriarty of the Bees is unusual in big league baseball. The Former Holy Cross captain is strong at bat and weak afield. Al Blanche of Somers- vile, rookie pitcher with the Bees, was christened Prosper Albert Bilangio.
 Springfleld's feat in whining the right to represent New England in the Olympic basketball trials seems fitting. Since the hoop game was introduced at Springfield College by pr. James E. Naismith in 1892. |. Dick Hebard, who tailed a third of t.. points in Springheld's 33-24 victory over Providence College last night, has already been elected cap- tain for next season.
 Young Blood
 Harold McSpaden of Kansas City, new golf professional at Winchester Country club, is only 27 years old but has been 8 professional since he was IS. .McSpaden, 8 six-footer. is ranked among the l6 top shot- makers in the country. With Me- Spaden at Winchester and Denny Shute at. Brae Burn, open and pro- fessional tournaments in this sec- ton should benefit. On the the- ory that couple of aces always attract Q couple more.
 Pat Dengis of Baltimore, second to Arlington's Johnny Kelley in the B. A. A. marathon last year, has entered the North Medford clubs 20-mile run March 2l as a con- ditioner for the B. A. A. classic, an Olympic tryout. ., Other plodders entered in the North Medford grind are the Veteran Jimmy Hcnigan, Johnny Semple of Lynn, Tarzan Brown of Westerly, R. l., Bill Malloy of Somerville, Earl Collins of Med- ford and Joe Plouffe of Worcester.
 Win Dougherty and Len Kuziora bcckheld stars at Holy Cross, were on the honor list 10 rthe last rank ing period Tony Siano of Walt ham, former Fordham and New York Giants center, is wrestling in the New York area and working in a tire shop at Broadway and 18th street. Referee Dave Goggin must have established some sort of record for total counts" in the weekly boxing show at Holyoke. One fighter went down nine times for a total of 54 counts, another five times for 40 and a third once for 6. A total of 100 counts for the night.

than pitching. That Simmons ought to help Mickey"
 Ruth can't share the general en- enthusiasm over the Red Sox. He thinks their pitching will be weaker than last year, and he doesn't think much of their punch, even with Foxx on first base.
 The big man likes the Cards in the National. That is, he likes 'em after the Fourth of July.
 "The Giants will win the Fourth of July pennant, and then get run over by the Cards in the stretch" he said.
 Mention of the stretch reminded us to ask Babe how he had fared at the race tracks this winter.
 All Through
 You don't see me in there any more," he answeerd. T was cured, you know, by that winter in Havana. I lost all I had down there that time, and most folks don't know I went there with better than three hundred grand to blow. I've been once in Miami, and lost two or three dollars I can't remember which"
 Ruth, who has seen but one in- ming of baseball since he got down here, will accompany the amateur ball team when 1t journeys to Berlin for the Olympic demonstration. La- ter he will act as chairman of the national baseball congress which will consider the advisability of dading the game to the 1940 Olympics.
 Delegates of IA countries will sit in on the congress, and Chairman Ruth's replies when the foreign dele- gates grown obstinate. should be worth listening to. Also his beard- yanking.

The Hopeville Community Club Speedboys basketball team play host to the St. Joseph's Big Five tonight in the second game of their city series. The Brooklynites won the first game on their court last Sat- urday night by 8 small margin, Q margin that failed the comparison of strength between both clubs.
 St. Joseph's got of to fast start and managed to have comfortable lead at half time, lead which at one time in the early stages of the game totaled seventeen points. The Speedboys came back in the second half to cut down tn margin but fail. ed to catch up with their rivals. To. night should be 8 different story, Friday the 18th and all. The "Vill- CTS" will be to advtntage on their own court and should have little trouble taking this engagement and evening the series. The St. Joe's team will feature the stellar Joe Boley, the Griska brothers, Barron, Joe Swasey, Harry Huey, Wally Prankitas and Hats" Saldukas in their lineup which hopes to make clean sweep of the series. The semi-final game brings together the Hopevilie Juniors and the St. Joseph Jrs., in a game which should prove pleasing to the early custom- CTS. In the early game starting at 7:30 o'clock the Hopeville Grammar school team will attempt to take the second game of their series with the Fife and Drum Corps representing the St. Joseph school.
