since the season opened three weeks
ago. Even the sterling efforts of
their ace moundsmen. Jackson, were
of no avail. Jackson famed 10
batters in the game thct went into
eight innings and his big bat ac-
counted for two hits in three times
at the plate.
Charles Coffman, Cramer'S bak-
cry hurler, did almost as well as
Jackson as he whitfield nine batters
and collected a double and a single
in four times at bat.
1t was an even game throughout
with no more than two runs being
scored by either team in any inning
and although Cramer'S out-errored
the City team, 5 to 3, they were able
to bunch their hits well and score
when it counted most.
Score was tied at 6-6 in the sev-
enth inning when Roy LawleSs, City
short fielder, tried to make it home
with the winning run. He was peg
ged out at the plate, however, and
the side retired. Lawless had in
jured a leg earlier in the evening
and his running was hampered.
REYNOLDS, Cramer's short fielder,
collected a triple and two singles
in four times up.

NEW YORK, June II (UP)
That silly season known as vacation
time is now at hand, so permit me
to offer a suggestion. If there isn't
gas enough in the locomobile to
reach Hayfever Heights, if the tires
won't stand a trip to Sunburn-by-
the-Sea and if Mosquito Manor is
too expensive, why not come along
to Jacobs Beach-quietest spot in
the world.
Jacobs Beach is the strip of AS
phalt turf" bounded on the west
by Madison Square Garden, on the
east by a string of saloons, on the
north by Uncle Mike himself and
on the south by Man O'War out of
EspoSa, she by ESpino. It's called
Jacobs Beach because until three
weeks ago it was the mecca of the
fight mob. Now, however, it is as
idle as the italian Navy.
AS a vacation resort, the beach
offers obvious advantages 1t is only
45 seconds from Broadway, yet so
quiet you can hear a stitch drop.
Boxers have been chilling each
other there for SO many years that
you sleep under two blankets.
Guests are furnished hot and cold
running horse tips and local pawn
brokers provide room service on a
24-hour basis.
l inspected the resort today and
can guarantee that if you want to
be alone you can find no likelier
spot, excepting the offices of Eu-
ropean travel agencies. The neigh
borhood is so barren that pawn
brokers are doing business with
each other and Uncle Mike is con-
sidering firing even his yes men. I
was the first visitor since the gas
man read the meter.
Conditions aren't merely serious,
they are critical. There hasn't been
boxing show in the Garden in al
most a month and there is none

Big 10 ATHLETES
UPSET FAVORED
PACIFIC TEAM

EVANSTON, Ill, June II. CUP)-
An underrated band of athletes
representing the Big Ten enjoyed
some long-sought revenge today as
a result of their unexpected victory
over an all-Star track squad from
the Pacific Coast conference.
Before a crowd of 10000 fans last
night at Northwestern university's
Dyche stadium, the underdog Big
Ten team rolled up SO 2/3 points
to 81 1/3 points for the Pacific
Coast squad to win the sixth an.
nual dual meet between picked teams
from two of the nations strongest
collegiate conferences.
The big ten team won nine first
places to six for the invaders.
Three meet records we're shat
tered in the bitterly fought engage
ment. "Hurrying Hal Davis, the
stramlined California sprinter, set
two of the new marks and Bob
Wright of Ohio State accounted for
the other.
Hal Davis was timed in 9.5 seconds
for the 100-yard dash to better the
meet mark or 81 set by Arnold Nut
ting of California in 1888 He re-
turned to sprint the 220 in 20.4 sec
onds and break the old mark of 81
seconds flat established by Lee Orr
Of ,,N 1oI> y,,,, I,t
of Ohio State, for the past two
years the greatest of collegiate
hurdlers, set his record in the 100
yard high hurdles when he stepped
over the timbers in Ia seconds to
break mark Of 14.3 set by James
Humphrey of Southern California
in 1898. Wright'S time was only
one-tenth of a second off the Amer
ican record of Rice'S Freddie VOL

is reported he will speak even to
James j. Johnston, ST., Greenfield
Jimmy Smith and the various sport
writers who occasionally refer to
his store teeth.
The war, of course, did the most
to kill business. Dozens of boxers
now are fighting for Uncle Sam
instead of Uncle Mike. But there
are other reasons why activity has
come to a standstill. In order of
importance, they are: illness, in
iuries, feuds and just plain laziness.
Almost every available man has
been incapacitated for one of these
reasons.
Ray Robinson, the so-called un-
crowned welterweight champion,
has his hand in a cast. Allie Stolz,
leading lightweight contender, has
an infected ear. Tami Mauriello,
who recently drew with Bob Pastor,
has a cash over his eye. Lee Savold
is taking a vacation, Lou Nova
has a number OF face cuts and
Melio Bettina is completely persona
non grata.
None of these boys will be avail
able before Aug. l. As for Pastor,
he has offers for four bouts-Harry
Bobo in Pittsburgh, Pat Valentino
in San Francisco, Jimmy Bivins in
Cleveland and Turkey Thompson
in Los Angeles. But ne isn't signing

Use of the group interview as a

To Stay Open Sundays

has more than 10000 besides more
than 10000 photographs and ap-
proximately 100000 microscopic
slides.
Originally intended as museum
for the study of war wounds, the
scope of the museum has been en-
larged to include the whole medical
field.
