PERRY NEAR K. 0.
 THEN SCORES ONE
Especial to The Democratl


 New Haven, May 13 - Surviving hectic second round in which he was punched all over the ring and barely escaped being flattened, Ken Perry, 164-pounder from Waterbury, rallied in the next two rounds to turn defeat into victory in his bout with Art Lloyd, 161, of Bangor, Maine, in the opening bout on the Arena card last night.
 Perry fiattened the North Pride with stiff left to the face after two minutes and five seconds of the fourth and final round had elapsed. Lloyd might have been able to con- tinue had he not tired from receiv- ing stiff lefts from Perry in the third frame and in the first two minutes of the fatal round.
 Joe Triano of Naugatuck, 148, was given four round decision over Johnny Dowguillo, 149, of Worcester, in the second bout on the program, but few of the fans were of the same opinion as Referee Billy Tay- Tor of Hartford whose verdict was greeted with a series of Bronx cheers.
 Easy For Mack
 New Haven, Conn.,, May 13.- (UP) - Johnny Mack, rugged New Britain lightweight, punched out a decisive eight-round victory over Felix Garcia, Puerto Rico, at the Arena last night. Mack weighed 137, Garcia 142.
 The New Britain fighter knocked Garcia down twice before the bout

make 1t. Due to a mixup in dates and schedules we were unable to make the game. We assure you 1t won't happen again.
 Running is to occupy large part Of the practices from now on. If the way the boys ran down the first base line in the last game is any sample they certainly could stand some. Co-advisors please take mo- tice
 John Brennan has all the catch CTS on the T. s. c. Jrs. worried John, you see, is a hoko ball artist. The cnly worry is when John lets them go whoa is the catcher.
 Snapshots taken at practice and developed for your reading pleasure.
 Mike Ritucci making ane handed stabs of seemingly impossible catches Bill OConnell trying hard to break into the starting lineup. Bill is an up and coming catcher.
 John Brennan and Red Byrne looking like an unbeatable double play combination. Yours truly hearing wealth of facts about baseball from the co-advisors.
 Co-Advisor Byrne devoting much time to teaching the fellows how to bunt correctly.
 Here is this weeks personality. Edward Errichetti. Ed stands about 5 feet 5. His position on the T. s. c. Jrs. is that of catcher. Ed is very fast, and is a menace to op- posing pitchers on the bases. Ed is q clever backstOp and knows how to work pitchers. At first meeting Ed was elected president, which gives you an idea of how high he Is held by the boys. Ed has a pow erful throwing arm, and in a recent game threw out six men trying to steal second. Ed is a rabid baseball fan. Also goes in for softball. Eds fayorite figure in the sporting world is Lou Gehrig. Ed is a very candid acera fan, and is quite bowler. Is rated tops as sport by Il who know him.
 Next week another personality.
 Mild suggestion: There could be and should be more chatter at prac- tice and at the games. What do you say fellows? Let's back up the pitched and give him all the en- collragement he should receive from his teammates. Keep that in mind fellows.
 Until next week the T. g. 0. Jrs. and myself say so long, and pleas ant reading.

Barnes Certain
 Dizzy Is Done

Wichita, Kan, May 13-(UP) Virgil Barnes, who pitched for the New York Giants from 1919 to 1928, predicted today that Dizzy Deans S185, 900 pitching arm never would re- cover completely from it's pres ent ailment.
 T suffered the same injury to delt0id and bursa tenders that afflicts Dizzy and I had to retire." Barnes said. "I never heard of a pitcher able to throw his best after suffering bursitis. Dizzy is now in the first stages of the ailment. Possibly he will return after a rest and begin throwing more balls under handed and some curves.
 But his Fast one is gone, and much as I like the big fellow, he'll robably have to quit the game-~as I did. He may be inning pitcher for a year but then he'll have to bow out of big time baseball"

Sp0rt0Sc0OpS
 of the T.S.C Juniors
By Chick Kramer

The members of the T. s. c. Jrs. are assured of a treat in the near future when Charlie Gerace is scheduled to speak I have spoken to Charlie and if what he told me is any indication on what he plans to tell the fellows all I can say is. well.
 With the help of co-adyisors, Byrne and Dillahe, herewith set forth group of questions about various members of the T. E. C.. Jrs. The answers will be given next week.
 What player on the T. s. c. Jrs. is giving Sammy Lombardo quite battle for second base?
 What player on the T. s. c. Jrs in the opinion of the co-advisors is most improved?
 Is Mike Ritucci slated to be a starter this season?
 What well known T. s. c. player is secretly trying to make pitcher of himself?
 Come on all you fellows on the T. s. c. Jrs., try and answer all the questions.
 The T. s. c. Jrs. opened their season with thrilling victory over the Diamond A. c. John Brennan and Lefty Daley pitched superb ball, and Ed. Errichetti played swell game behind the plate. The hitting feature Of the game was a tre- mendous home run smash by Bob Grandell.
 Co-AdyiSor Byrne tells me that the spirit and hustle shown by the boys at practice is heartcning to him. He hopes the boys keep it. up.
 Batting is still the main problem of the T. s. c. Jrs.
 The bulletin board revealed few surprises, and many of the boys are wondering.

 New York, May 13-War Admiral and Seabiscuit ought to be even money when they go to the post in their Decoration day match race, ac- cording to Jack Doyle, the book- maker. Actually, he says, War Ad. miral will be the favorite because the public, and not the gbookie, makes the odds, and the butcher. the baker and the bartender win get bit down on the Admiral. .. If the race were held in California, Doyle says, it would be Seabiscuit the favorite at 7-5. They know the Biscuit out there ...
 Incidentally don't pay any atten- tion to that little horse" stuff about the Admiral by the way of comparing him with Seabiscuit. ... War Admiral weighs only 40 pounds less than Seabiscuit: they're both small. Incidentally. that race is going to be one of the tightest sell- outs in years. tickets are scarce now.

 Today, new equipment is being used on this railroad which runs to Bunker Hill, in the Kougarok mining district, enabling miners and prospectors to get in and out of that district in short space of time. The right of way was talk an over by the Territory of Alas ka several years ago and is now used as a public highway, being kept in condition by road funds under the jurisdiction of the AL aska Road Commission. Records prove that this sort of tramroad is less expensiva in maintenance cost than any other type of road in this section of Alaska. And is a further argument that the tram road should be continued furthe. into the actual mining sections of the Kougarok.

Gov.

This contention ap- pears to be confirmed from anoth CT quarter, since former Cover nor Clifford Pinchot said to be in- clined toward the CIO, lost the republican nomination for Gov ernor by a vote that was large enough to be definitely indica- tive of what the electorate thot about the CIO matter.

President Roosevelt has put his John Hancock on the Navy Bill and thus it becomes law. By its terms, slightly more than a bill- ion dollars are available for the purpose of increasing naval stren gth one-fifth. That branch of the nations defense will attain an effectiveness hitherto unknown and the ships constructed will be the most powerful that ever slip ped from the ways into the water. It is stated by some that the Un- ited States has started a naval building race which will lead to havoc thruout the world, mad by others that the appropriation sim ply means that European nations who have a Napoleonic idea of conquering the world had better take notice that the world" does not include the U.SA. Of hand, it may be maintained that a nav al building contest finds its basis in the adage that one fool makes many, but with Duces and Fueh- rers running wild in Europe it will do not harn to furbish up the guns and things over here, for the purposes of righteous and just defense. Relying upon mem ory, it seems as though Solomon said something about answering fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

Having cracked joke at the expense of Congress, always a target for jokes, it must be ad- mitted that the Legislators are on the job and industrious, notwith- standing the fact that some of their doings do not furnish mater ial for spicy or always interest ing reading. A bill to give the State of California title to all submerbed oil lands off the coast of that commonwealth may indi- cate wise and far-seeing attempt to penetrate the future.
