Flynn Faces Toughest
lesion Slab Sunday
Battling Brewers
HurIer of No-Hit Fame
Out to Lift SmuIIs to
City Loop Second Spot

Johnny Flynn. ponderous port
slider who heaved no-hit, no-rm
game against Prince Georges Police
three weeks ago, will undergo his
stiffest test of the campaign Sun
day when he tries to pitch Frank
Small Motors into second place in
Section A, National City League.
Johnny is up against a high hur-
die in the Heurich Brewers, whose
collection of rare, old antiques is
one of the city's most potent sand
lot aggregations. Miller Furniture,
current league leader, is the only
team to whip the Brewers thus far,
although Ralph Bennie's men may
have wobbled precariously on the
brink of defeat in all other games.
They can be beaten by the proper
mixture of luck and good baseball,
and Flynn hopes to supply at least
part of the latter Sunday.
Nance n. & N. Y. A. Hurler.
Some heavy eaters will fight 1t
out for the league lead in Section
B, and they hope to bring out some
heavy hitting. It's Ninth and New
York Avenue, giving it the full ham
die, VS.. Perry's Restaurant, and 1t
should be corking good game, al
though Perry's will be the under
dog.
In one respect this closely reSem-
bles a revival of the old Shamrock
Knickerbocker series. Perry's COM
plement of men halls from South
east Washington, where Wee Will
lie Glascoe welded together his
great Shamrock mines, and the N.
& N. Y. A. crowd comes from the
other side of town, where the Knicks
were spawned. Ninth and New York
Avenue appears to have too much
experience for its rival, but OF
course that alone doesn't decide ball
games.
Carmel Nance, former Western
High twirler, will serve 'em up for
Ninth and New York and there is a
chance Frank Cady will be home
from Charlotte Hall Military Acade-
my in time to do the catching. Ray
Wrenn, Hal Mitchell, both former
Western stars, and Pete Chaconas,
drafted from Pepco, will be in the
infield. Bobby Leach, Westerns
hard-hitting first sacker, also is
slated to join the club at the close
of the school series.

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, May 28.-A persistent
rival and the law of averages finally
caught up with J. Donald Bulge.
The California redhead has been
breezing through all comers, anna
teur and pro, for a long time. His
victims frequently included 26-year-
old John Faunce, Hollywood pro-
fessional.
Title Now Wide Open.
Faunce, who never gained much
distinction as an amateur and
turned pro only four years ago, al
ways lost his Bulge matches until
yesterday. Bulge caught his rival
in red-hot streak and was knocked
out of the national professional
championship tourney in straight
sets, 6-4, 6-1, 6-3.
Even the defending champions S
famous backhand could not stem the
tide of Faunce's brilliant form. The
match was Budge's tourney debut,
coming the day after his marriage
to a Stanford University coed.
His defeat left the title battle
wide open. Big Bill Tilden swung
back into action today against
Keith Gledhill of Los Angeles in
quest of a semifinal berth, and Fred
