Lynch To Ride AgaWam Park
 For BruSie At

Springfield, Mass, May 25.-Jim- my Lynch of Albany, N. Y., one of the outstanding jockeys in the land, today signed a contract to ride for Lyman Brusie of Hartford, crack trainer, at the AgaWam park meet ing which is to start next Saturday.
 Lynch will have the leg up on Guy Hawkes. in the Agawam handi- cap, five and one-half furlongs fea- ture of opening day. The fashy thoroughbred, which is owned by A. c. Norris of Ballston Spa, N. Y., can run on any kind of a track, as he proved at Narragansett last year when he won by six lengths in the mud, and came back to win by eight lengths on a fast track.
 It was the capable Lynch who booted him to four important vic- tories last year, and brought him home third in the Stuyvesant ham, dicap in New York, less than a length back of Chicolorado and VamooSe, but lengths ahead of such capable sprinters as Jewell Dorsett and Rudie, and the evidence is at hand that the Brusie-trainer sprin- ter is at the top of his form.
 Not Bad
 The other morning, he stream lined through a half-mile workout in 492, and this morning he dipped of five furlongs in 1912. Brusie announced after the work out that the four-year-old son of Happy Time-Rocket Glare is ready for the wars. and that he is certain starter in both the Agawam handi- cap and in the Memorial day fea- ture.
 Lynch is one of many famous riders who will thrill the crowds at the coming meeting The thor oughbreds here are better than ever before, and the jockeys, too, will be the finest in the east. In addition to Lynch, who will arrive Friday night, others already here or on their way are Georgie Rose, lead- ing jockey of last year; Mike Co., roma, BrooWemeade contract rider; Johnny Barba, who will arrive with the Wm. II. Gallagher string; BoE Wholey, under contract to the Sol Rutchick stable; Jerry Paradise, con- tract rider for the big Gaines es- tablishment: Willie Nertney, Melvin Knight, and three sensational ap- prentice jockeys-J. Howell, leading rider at Charlestown; V. Villabola Cuban star; and E. White, grea prospect who arrived from Aurora today with Dan Hardy.
 From competitive angle, thu coming meeting will undoubtedly b, the greatest in the history of tn, track.

DEMAND FOR A SHOWDOWN GETS CANCELLATION
Waterbury Man Prevents One=Sided Race and
 Saves Millions Bet
BY JOHN A. CLUNEY

Yesterdays demand by Dan Parker for a showdown" on the ac- tual condition of Seabiscuit, sched- uled to race for $1O0,O0O against War Admiral next Monday brought about cancellation of the match race, and subsequent saving of millions of dollars to the portion of the public that bets on the horses.
 Parker, Waterbury born sports editor of the New York Mirror, and as fearless man as ever wrote for a newspaper anywhere, "let the cat out of the bag" in his column of yesterday, regular feature of the Waterbury Democrat, entitled Her bert B. Swope, Let's Have the Dope" Swope, chairman of the New York racing commission was asked openly by Parker to determine the actual condition of the c. s. Howard racing star, and if he were found to be unfit, the race should be cancelled IMMEDIATELY, not at the last minute next Monday when 50,000 people arrived at the Belmont track.
 Racing Rule
 Under the rules of racing, once a horse LEAVES THE PADDOCK he BECOMES A STARTER. That means, Seabiscuit could leave for the post, and THEN BE TAKEN BACK WITHOUT RUNNING, if the judges decided he was unfit, or for any other reason. In the meantime, MILLIONS OF DOLLARS would have been bet at the track and with books" all over the country as Sea- biscuit has been touted as the fig ure horse" for this race, meaning that his recent efforts and training made him look good enough to beat War Admiral. The St. Louis, New York and Chicago books alone, aside from New York would handle mil- lion dollars on Seabiscuit, which would be burned up" if the horse had been allowed to run or even leave the paddock for tiie post. That's where Parker comes in. All honor to him!

.SEABISCUIT MAY
 NEVER MEET UP WITH ADMIRAL
Bad Legs Causes Cancel lation-May Be Retired
 to Stud
By HENRY SUPER

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, May 25.-(UP)-There may never be an answer to the question: Which is the better horse -Seabiscuit or War Admiral?
 For the anticipated dream race" which was to have provided that an- swer, was just memory today. The Biscuit and the Admiral prepared to go their separate ways, perhaps never again to come. as close to a meeting on the track as they were less than 24 hours ago.
 The $100,000, mile and a quarter race between them, scheduled for Monday at Belmont Park, was can- celled yesterday afternoon because Seabiscuit's owner, Charles s. Howard, reported that his hve-year- old horse was suffering from bad knees which were puffy and sore. He said the Biscuit might risk per- manent injury if he attempted to start on Monday.
 Lose Money
 Despite an advance invetment of more than $25, 900 in this first im- portant match race since Zev beat Papyrus in 1923, the Westchester Racing association readily granted a cancellation, rather than risk in- jury to Seabiscuit and to racing in general. Such might have been the case had the Biscuit run and shown himself in bad shape.
 ro oit,rr yr1ay, foIf thot Coo biscuits 5000 mile trip from Cali fornia did his notoriously bad legs no good. But the Biscuit is usually a good shipper and he slept most of the way across. Others felt that he was brutally raced as a two-year- old before Howard bought him-he started 35 times and won only five and that misuse finally had caught up with him.
 War Admiral, tiny son of Man O. War, winner of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes last year as three-year-o will stay at Belmont Fdrx and run Saturday in the Sand Suburban Handicap, a $2O,- 900 added mile and quarter race for three-year- -6lds and upward. His chief opposition will be Pompoon, second-best three-year-old of 1897.
 Seabiscuit's plans are indefinite He probably will be kept at Belmont with the idea of rounding him into shape for later stage events. If he doesn't respond to treatment 1t is possible that he might be retired to stud.

title, was surprisingly defeated today in a second-round match of the British amateur golf champion ship. He lost % Jocelyn Walker, 2 up.
 Second Shock
 Hardly had Smith and Walker holed out on the home green when the crowd was given another sur prise. On the 14th green w. M Robb, an unknown, had defeated the defending champion, Robert Sweeney, former New Yorker and now of London, 5 and 4.
 Charley Yates of Atlanta reached the third round by beating J. J Frank Pennink, English native champion, 3 and 2.
 Defeated by Duffer
 Smiths elimination was, however the more astounding. Jocelyr Walk CT is an ordinary "club golfer" with no national record. But he was in top form this week and clearly de- feated the American. Walker is the son of Sir Alexander Walker, head of the Johnnie Walker whiskey dis tillery. He owns a dry cleaning business in London.
 Walker on Tuesday gave hint that he might be no set-up for Smith when he scored 31, five strokes under par, for the outward nine of his firSt-round match.
 Today Walker had an outward par 36 against Smiths 37 and was one up on the turn. Walker had an inward 36 for a round of 72 one over par, while Smith had a "A

Here's How to Hook and Slice, But Don't Forget Cures

from the line of flight, Virgil Kuntz addresses the ball of the right heel in showing pupil how to play an intentional slice.
 "The swing is more upright" points out the professional of Akron's Silver Lake Country Club. You swing from the outside, draw ing the face of the club across the ball, pulling the club handle to- ward the left trousers pocket. In taking 8 more upright swing, it is easier to hit across the ball. Also, in addressing the ball, the club face is slightly open.
 "To hook Intentionally, use a closed stance, with the left foot across the line of flight. The ball is played more of the left foot with the address the same as for any other shot, the club face squarely behind the ball. The downswing is free from the inside out, somewhat f1atter than the ordinary swing, making it easier to hit from the in side. Rolling the wrists at impact is essential"
 Having acquired the knowledge of getting a hook or slice, don't forget how to sure them. NEXT, Correct position at the finish of the swing with wooden club.

 o. How many home runs and how many base hits did Babe Ruth make during his entire major league career, including world series game?
 A. He hit TIA home runs in league games and Is in world series games-a total of 729, and made 2,873 base hits in league games and 42 base hits in world series games a total of 2,915.
 e. How does the crawl stroke in- novation, developed by swimming coach Steve Forsyth, differ from the ordinary American crawl?
 A. The basic difference is said to be two-kick glide between pull and recovery, compared with three kicks for recovery and three for pull as in the orthodox crawl. The glide Is said to give more supple recov- cry, reducing arm movements con- siderably, and affordins more per- feet balance and providing relaxa- tion enabling the swimmer to ne- gotiate distances with great deal less effort.
 @. When did the New York Yan- kees open the 1897 season and when did Joe DiMaggio play his first game that season?
 A. The Yankees opened against Washington on April 20 at New York, and DiMaggio made his first appearance of the season on May at New York.

New York, May 25-(UP)-The fight between Barney Ross-Henry Armstrong in Madison Square Gar den Bowl tomorrow night would be the richest welterweight champion ship match in history if gate receipts are near the ,$25O,o00 mark predict ed by Promoter Mike Jacobs.

 Ross, the 28-year-old defending champion from Chicago, was an 8-5 favorite to make his third suc- cessful title defense against Arm- strong. Since winning the titlS back from McLarnin in May 1885, le has put his crown on the line but twice, vanquishing Izzy Janazzo in 1886 and Garcia in 1887.
