A couple of big league brush beat
ers happened on the scene just as
Georgetown was bludgeoning Dart
mouth into submission yesterday,
14-5, for its third straight victory,
but the ivory hunters departed
mpty-handed, although some grade
A work was committed by both
squads.
Paul Krichell Of the New York
Yankees and Jack Egan of the Bos-
ton Red Sox focused their critical
eyes on the boys for q couple Of In
nings without discovering a pros
pective Joe Di Maggie or Ted Will
liams. Krichell primarily wanted .
gander at Georgetown's catcher,
Stan Wnek.
Judge Criticizes Scouts.
The scouts may have popped up
at Maryland today as the Terps en-
gagged Pittsburgh, or over on the
Ellipse for glimpse Of George
Washington in action against Ver-
mont. These games, incidentally,
and Maryland's lacrosse match with
Loyola are the only items on the
Capitals collegiate sports calendar
for home consumption. At Blacks
burg, Va, Maryland's trackmen
matched strides with Virginia Tech
and the Washington Athletic Asso-
citation was to open its lacrosse
campaign at Swarthmore.

NEW YORK, April eff you

Jaretz of Chicago
Currently the glamour boy" of
national swimming circles and the
talk of the National A. A. U. SWIM

into their second and final day in
the New York A. c. pool today, the
18-year-old blond husky has schol-
arship offers from Is colleges, "and
there may be more since I left
home" he admitted.
Jaretz, a Lane Tech High School
student, built like football tackle,
hasn't yet hit the championship
circle in the current title compe-
tition, which saw the University Of
Michigan and Ohio State deadlock
for first place with II points each.
Looks to Win in "100."
However, he won the national 100
meter outdoor title from the great
Peter Flick last year, and with Flick
now sidelined by illness, he figures
1t should be no great trick for him
to take the indoor honors in the
sprint today.
Otto not only anchored the Chi
cago Towers Club 400-yard relay
team, which placed fourth to Michi-
gan's crack quartet last night, but
he wound up second to the veteran
Tom Haynie Of the Detroit A. G.
in the 220-yard free style.
"That 220 is only a sideline,
though" he explained later. "The
100 is my real meat"
Jaretz will be graduated from

third round. Out of competition
barring this single tourney-for 10
years, Bob isn't toughened up to
the tournament pace, and the one

legendary feats. But that misery"
in his back which has been discussed
at length, and which is held forth
as the factor keeping Bob from the

Fred Mcleod was talking about
it. The little Columbia Country
Club mentor happens to be one of
Bob's ardent friends and admirers.

said Freddie. Bob had the same
thing, to my knowledge, 10 years
ago. Why in 1880, the year Bob
won all the major tournaments, he
came here to play charity matcn
with Roland Mackenzie, MacDon-
aid Smith and myself.
Few people know about it, but
before that match Bob went to a
physician to be treated for the same
ailment that is with him now.
They called it neuritis then, and it's
the same thing today. And it isn't
any joke either. A pain right in the
shoulder blades, just as you wind
up to hit big shot, is no fun. But
Bob doesn't need any aibi. His
record is good enough.

first big year. Consistently effec-
tive this spring, he gave the Crack
ers only three hits and no runs
in seven innings. The three bases
on balls he allowed was unusual for
the Krakauskas of 1910.
Before the game, Manager Paul
Richards, who is Atlanta's first
string catcher, announced that he
did not fancy the Mats because
"they lack power" Paul may be
right. but the Griffmen sort of
rubbed 1t in yesterday. They came
up with four of their runs in the
opening inning and two were the
result Of homers.

George Case, leading off, walked.
Jim Wasdell, next up, drove over
the fence. Buddy Lewis made it two
homers in row and, after Gee
Walker had famed, doubles by
Travis and Jimmy Bloodworth
spotted Krakauskas to a 40 lead.
The Crackers got run in the
fourth when Krakky gave up a
base on balls and Rookie Connie
Ryan doubled, but the Mats got
this run back in the fifth. In the
eighth Atlanta scored again when
Les Burge homered against Car
rasquel, but in their half of the
ninth the Mats got this run back,
too, when Wasdell was safe on an
error by Burge and Buddy Lewis
doubled him across
Between them, Krakky and Car
rasquel allowed only five hits. The
Mats, in the meantime, collected
10 of Tom Drake, Mack Stewart
and Rene Cortes and, without
Travis, the total would have been
only seven. That long Georgia boy
apparently is due for a great year.

Hoppe Billiards Marvel
Through Generations
BY JOHN LARDNER,
Special Correspondent Of The Star,

NEW YORK, April 6 (N.A.N.A).-
It's pleasure to salute Willie
Hoppe, the new king OF three
cushion billiards. William has been
king of and on for more than 80
years, but every coronation brings
fresh pleasure to those who admire
this last surviving giant Of the
golden age Of sport.
Hoppe, Of course, predates the
golden age. When Bobby Jones was
cutting his first set of baby fangs,
when Jack Dempsey was padding
about in rompers (always with the
left hand out), when William Tatem
Tilden was brooding over McGuf-
fey's Reader, Bill Hoppe prowled
around billiard table, cue in hand,
setting the rest of the world at
defiance.
He doesn't look SO today. Under
his slick and sparse gray hair his
face is fresh and round. But Paris
hailed his wizardry in 1901, at which
time, according to the best informa-
ton, Dempsey's baby hands still
were too small to clutch the rods
OF his first fast freight.
