While the Jersey City police
studied the Army's new edict on the
New Jersey coastline dimout and
couldn't be reached for comment,
the management Of the Little Giants
went ahead with plans for tonight's
double bill with Buffalo.
Earlier in the season the club was
given permission to play its night
games because Roosevelt Stadium
was shielded from the sea by q
range of hills.
Recently, however, Army and Navy
officials few near Roosevelt Stadium
while an International League night
contest was under way and reported
that the reflected glow was the
brightest spot along the coast.
1t was planned to make another
test last night, but the scheduled
contest with Buffalo was postponed
because Of the weather. Instead, a
twin bill will be played tonight, with

the Yankees and Mats will collabo-
rate in promoting Yankee Stadium
double header for the benefit of
Army and Navy relief funds on
August %.
In an attempt to recoup prestige
that diminished horribly after the
100000 production at Brooklyn, with
four American League games net
ting less than $45 1000, Griffith and
President Ed Barrow of the Yankees
have decided to become the first
clubs to turn over two games and a
Sunday date to the relief program.
The Mats and Yankees originally
were scheduled to play single
game on Saturday, August %, for
the funds. Both Griffith and Bar
row expressed belief the twin bill
will be sellout and perhaps be
oversubscribed.

Crack Nefmen Line Up

Leovens Among Lotest
To File for Meet Thot
Will Stort Sunday
By LEWIS F. ATCHISON.

Lists for The Stars City Of Wash
ington tennis tournament, scheduled
to open Sunday at the Edgsnoor
Club, were filling up rapidly today
with host of new names promising
to add new vigor and color TO the
annual skirmishing.
All seemed to have one hand
cupped to ear for word of Barney
Welsh's intentions while putting
their John Hancocks on the line,
but the prevailing feeling was one
of curiosity and hope, rather than
anxiety and dread. Most Of the
boys want the Bill Tilden Of Rock
vile to be on the firing line when
action commences and they want to
have the privilege OF giving the
bounding barrister the old heave no
from the ranks.
LeavenS in Line.
Don Leavens, an old favorite. Is
one tournament dependable expected
to be in line Sunday. Leavens, like
most of the others, is trying to ar
range his schedule to insure ample
time for the tournament and Is
confident he'll be In there. A most
welcome addition will be Jerry Court
ney, champion of the West Side
Tennis Club of Forest Hills. N. Y
and a player expected to go a long
way, If not to the top.
Ensign Don Marvin and Holmes
Perkins, couple OF Harvard
alumni; Samuel D. Hayes. the gent
who almost upset Alfonso Smith a
couple of years ago in a hot match;
Dave Bauer and r. E. Ellis were
among other entries received. Ellis
tends to offset the Harvard entry
to some extent, being q Yale man
and a former resident OF this city
who reached the quarter-finals In
the District tournament several
years ago.
Some requests have been made to
delay the tournament a bit longer
to give the players more time to
work out Office schedules compatible
with tennis dates, but this Is I'M
possible for at least two good rea-
sons. First. a later date probably
would conflict with other tourna-
ment dates, and, secondly, limited
supply of balls set aside for the
tournament could not be held In
definitely and more might not be
available at later date.
Top-rankers Not Barred.
From another source came the
suggestion that the top-ranking 10
or players should be barred from
competition to insure a new cham
pion and give some Of the lesser
lights a chance to bask in the spot
light, but this was rejected pronto.
Entries will continue to be re-
ceived at Edgemoor and The Star
sports department. Entries for the
women's tournament, re-scheduled
for June Is, also are being received.
Players are requested to call The
Star before noon with entries.

Inter|oop Shift

Ex-Bosox Ruted Over
HemsIey, Walker Of
Reds, Dodgers Rowe
BY JUDSON BAILEY.
Associated Press Sports Writer


Another American Lacquer has
found that the path of glory leads
but to the National League.
Since the Boston Braves provided
temporary haven for Babe Ruth
in 1895, many waning stars in the
junior circuit have found refuge in
the National League-among them
AL Simmons, Schoolboy Rowe,
Johnny Allen, Fred Dixie Walker,
Gerald Walker, Rollie Hemsley, Bill
Werber. zeke Bonura, Debs Garms.
Bump Hadley, Monte Pearson and
Ellsworth (Babe) Dahlgren.
Now Jimmy Foxx, one of the great
est right-handed sluggers in major
league history, has been sold to the
Chicago Cubs by the Boston Red
Sox only couple of weeks after the
Cubs had given up Dahlgren be-
cause their first base job was being
adequately handled by Glen Russell
and Phil Cavaretta.
Others Little Help.
FoXx is the fourth prominent
American Lacquer to be taken by q
National League club this season
and the other three have not as yet
done anything to distinguish them
selves in their new surroundings.
The Cincinnati Reds, who had
great success with Werber after
buying him from the Philadelphia
Athletics, acquired Catcher Rollie
Hemsley and Outfielder Gerald
Walker during the winter with the
expectation that this pair would re-
store the Reds to pennant con-
tenders.
However, neither has been able tc
hold a regular job. At the end OF
last week Walker, who batted over
300 for several seasons in the Amer
lean League, had a 100 average and
Hemsley one of .l29.
The Brooklyn Dodgers, for whom
Dixie Walker became bright star
obtained Rowe from Detroit last
month and have used him both a:
a relief pitcher and as pinch hitter
with Indifferent results.
Foxx Feels He Is OK.
Double X may turn the trend
again in favor Of the transplanteo
Junior leaguers. He told this writer
a few days ago, Il feel I still coulo
go out there and do a good job II
I could play every day. But I can't
get going when I'm in the line-ur
for two or three days and on the
bench a couple.
People have been saying I was
through for seven years (since the
Athletics traded him to the Red
SoD and one of the biggest kicks ]
have had in baseball was batting
.349 at Boston in 1888"
The Foxx deal filled in a lull In
the major leagues while clubs were
travelling for another round OF in
tersectional play starting today with
the American Leagues Western
clubs invading the East and the
Eastern Clubs of the National
League moving West.
