PARKER HALL TO
 GET CARR AWARD

Dayton, O., July 29 = Parker Hall voted the most valuable player in the National Football League last year by the Professional Football Writ CTS Association, will be presented the Joe F. Carr Memorial Award between halves of the seventh an- nual All-Star game in Chicago Thursday night, August 29, Carl L. Storck, president of the league, an- nounced today.
 The Spectacular Cleveland rookie qualified for the award, which com- meniorates the memory of the late president and founder of the league, by polling 113 points in the writers poll. Hall, former University of of Mississippi All-American, is the second player to receive the trophy. Captain Mel Hein of the New York Giants, won the first award. Storck will make the presentation.
 Standout
 Hall, a triple threat back, was the symbol of football fury last sea- son. Statistically, there was no doubt of Halls value to his team. He did the Rams bunting, kicking 58 times for an average of Al yards per attempt. He was the author of the two longest punts of the season, kicking 80 of 78 yards from the line of crimmage. He scored two touch- downs and was directly involved in the production of IA others.
 Hall threw POS passes, completing 106 to break Sammy Baugh's former record of 81, established in 1887, by 25 passes. His passes gained 1,227 yards and nine went for touch- downs. Halls all-around ability is further attested by his 458 yards gained running, which placed him fifth in the league. His average gain per attempt was 3.8 yards. In addi- tion, he was an inspiring leader and was labeled "the perfect backfield type" by his coach, Earl (Dutch) Clark, himself one of the greatest backs of all time.

DEMOCRAT TYPOS
 MEET BARRIERS

The Democrat Typos and Master Barbers softball teams are all set for their game this evening at Washington Park at 7:30 or directly following the finish of the City-wide League game.
 Mike Rossi, manager of the Bar berS, promised Assistant Manager Joe Evans of the Typos that the Barbers will clip his players of one by one without any effort. Further more he says that his Tonsorial Artists will not only father the life out of the typos, but they also will remove their tonsils without the least iota of pain. And he continued this will keep their mouths shut for long while. (Mike said that tonsils comes from the Latin root of ton sorial by dropping the ora.)
 On the other hand Manager Coates will show the Barbers what free press is, and his players say they will f1atten the soap lath- erers f1atter than a pancake and smear them all over as black as any printers ink. The results of the game and lineup will be in tomor- row evenings Democrat.

Publinks Champion
 After U. 5. Amateur

Detroit, July 29-(UP)-If he can steal enough time away from his various enterprises, Robert c. Clark of St. Paul, Minn., hopes to become the first player ever to win the Na- tional Public Links championship and the U. S. amateur in the same years.
 The first is in the bag. Clark saw to that Saturday, when he defeated Mike Dietz, unemployed Detroit au- to-worker, 8 and in a rainswept match at 36 holes.
 The amateur is something else again. He'll have to take time of first for the qualifying trials. then for the tournament proper if he gets by the sectional qualifying rounds.
 "I'd like to make the trip" Clark said. Nationally, I've always want ed to play in the National Amateur. but my business may not stand more than this weeks vacation I've just finished"
 It's a wonder Clark's business" is going after a weeks absence. First he's hardware salesman. Then he sells medical supplies, operates day nursery and a service bureau for dentists and physicians. All that leaves only Saturday and Sunday for golf, but the 3l year old match play star has found it enough to win the St. Paul City champion ship the last two years and now the National Public links.

Chase arkWOmen'S S Tennis Meet Starts

With rather small field of six teen, the Chase Park Women's Tourney began today. Many of the entries are unfamiliar to the fol- lowers of the city tournaments but we hope that they will become well known in the course of short time, even before this tournament closes. The field includes such favorites as Helen Shukis and Doris Nelson as well as Mrs. Burns and Rosamond Carserino, but it also embraces an- other member of two of the better known tennis-playing families, that is, Eleanor Del Conte and Ruth Stollar.
 A few of the matches will be run of Monday night when we shall see on Court at 6, Helen Shukis and Kay Sheehy meet. In the afternoon at 4 o'clock on Court 3, we have a match between Wanda Lugosius and Barbara Delicks. Following the ukis-Sheehy match on Court 3, Anna Grant will meet Constance KaZlauSkas.
 The raminder of the first round matches will be held later in the week.

North Enders "Sew Up' City League CroOn
ROBINSON GETS
 SECOND ''CRACK' |AT IRISH DOLAN
Star WeIterweights Clash Thursday in Ten-ROund
 Battle

When Ernie Cat" Robinson of New York was outpointed by Irish Eddie Dolan in this city four or five weeks ago, he said that he had not trained properly for the fight and was not used to boxing top-line southpaws, such as Dolan is known to be. In another battle, Robinson said he could take Dolan without too much trouble. That, of course, is a loose statement to make and sounds like ''bragging." of the first order, for there are very few boxers of Robinson's ability able to defeat the crafty, master-boxer that Do- Ian has shown himself to be, and earned him ranking within the ten best welterweights in the country. Yet, could Robinson be right? Since his defeat by Dolan, the negro slugger handed the able Dick Tur- cotte, his worst beating and went on to beat Carl Dell at Hartford, in bout that "stoel the show" and provided one of the finest fights Hartford fans have been in years, according to Bill Lee, Hartford "Courant" sports editor Robinson wo mover Dell by a whisker, but im- pressed the Insurance City fans as a ringman of the "club fighter" type that they would go many mile to see.
 Wanted Another "Sh0T Robinson asked for return bout with Dolan. The bout looked r.g. at the time, but Robinson handled Turcotte, southpaw, Sa easily that Waterbury A. c. officials decided to put him in again with Dolan who is harder to beat than your income tax. Thursday night, the pair will have it out for the second time in the Randolph Cloves Stadium over the ten-round route. As they stand now, Irish Eddie will have to have one of his best nights, if he is go- ing to repeat his win over the much improved Cat" Should he beat Dolan, every promoter in the state will be bidding for his services. Both boys are working out at New York gyms, realizing the importance Of their. bout.
 l PrelimS
 Tommy Ciarlo gets another bout. this time six round prelim against Abe Cohen, stablemate of Robin son while Dula Kovach of Nauga- tuck and Benny Jacobs of New York are paired in another sixer. Jimmy Bell of New Haven, who made a hit last week, and Maxie Katz the Jew ish middleweight are also to be seen on this weeks card, tickets for which can be ordere dat Mulligan's 3-9450 or by calling at the Phoenix Avenue Bar.

FITCH FAVORED |0VER NATE MANN l
New England Heavy Title Bout Tonight-Mann
 l87, Fitch l85

West Haven, July 29.-Nathan Mann, New England heavyweight champion faces the crossroads of his colorful and hectic ring career tonight at Donovan field, Savin Rock, when he faces George Fitch New Haven Negro, in 12-round championship fight on Promoter Charley Browns postponed fight card. Action will start at 8:30.
 Fitch and Mann were slated to meet Friday night, but thunder showers three hours before fight time washed out the show, and the entire card was carried over in- tact. Mann scaled 187 pounds tc 1855 for Fitch, and when the boys weigh in again this afternoon the margin will be about the same. Both went through light workouts Sat- urday.
 Fitch Favored
 When the slim difference in weights became known, the smart money" swung to Fitch. Interest in the match is hot. This was proven when the box office was swamped with telephone calls for reservations early in the afternoon, and then again at night when the weather became threatening.
 Angelo Rodano, Norwalk light weight, faces Frankie Foley, New Haven Irishman, in the top of three sixes. This is a "grudge" fight Rodano having won a disputed de- cision three months ago after Foley had him on the floor for two counts of nine.

One big inning which produced four runs, won the all-important baseball game for the North End Thomas club over the Brooklyn A. C.; sent them well on the way to another championship with a two- game lead and four to go; and left little to worry about except ways and means of getting to the na- tional amateur tournament this year at Birmingham, Alabama.
 Yesterday at Municipal Stadium, 800 paying customers contributed more than $100 to see a triple header in which the Tommies de- feated the Brooklyns 6 to 3; the Sacred Hearts gained second place by an 8-3 win over the Washington Hills; and the Tribunes assured themselves fourth spot in the standing with g to 3 edge over the Overlooks. By its loss the B. A. c. dropped to third. Roy John son, number one Brooklyn pitcher, developed arm trouble in the fourth and was batted out in the seventh when four runs scored by the Tom mics proved enough to cinch the game, neither team scoring for the remainder of the game.
 Early Score.
 Brooklyn got of to a good start, grabbing two runs of Strokalaitls one of which the Thomas Club got back in its half of the first inning, tied it up in the fourth but went one run down in the fifth and then iced the game in the Lucky" sev- enth, when Strokalaitis walked, Mullen, DiVito and Yoska singled, McGrath dropped a ball in the out field, two runs scored, Dooley re- placed Johnson, walked in another of Moore's bat.
