1' ‘. School's fast travelling nine accom-

Perk. Stamford in the play off of
the League leadership, yesterday.
Norwalk by merit of her victory
yesterday has all right to the chain-
pionship of the Southern part of
the state having twice defeated
Strati'ord who won tlle laurels in
the I'Iousutonic \‘alh-y League.

honored by its presence this year.

of their letters at an assembly to be
held in the High school on next
,Wednesday. '
Tho deciding struggle between the
two rivals yesterday had an unex-
pected outcome with tho Norwalk-
ere literally walking away from the
millionaires. The outcome of the can-
test was 11C\e1' in doubt from the
third inning up to which time the
Green and White annexed six runs
and it would have been easier to
stop proceedings at that time as the
Norwalkcrs got weary running the
base paths. The game was featured
by the heavy hitting of the locals
and the cracked defense of the
Greenwichers, who upon making a
stop would toss the ball in the
sound. Dowers, Greenwich short-
. stop was the main olfendcr with no
less than six misplays. all of which
was due to his eagerness to toss the
ball in said sound.
O'Brien on the
Green and White was
form setting down the
nine with the hits and
twelve opponents. The
'twirlcr was ncver in real danger
and the. ,Itcd and White did not
break into the run column until the
fifth canto uhcn they scored a brace
of runs. Thclr filial 1'1111 came in the
next canto when Richards drove the
ball to deep left for a circuit smash
and the only extra base hit of the
contest.
The locals found little or no dif-
ficulty in solving the slants of ("un-

Navy crew makes ready to leave for
Pougliket-psic no follower of rowing
who is up on the technique of the
sport has any idta other than that
the Midshipmen combination is the
one that. must be relied upon to give
the University of Washington eight 9.
' thrilling contest.
: In the past six years, since the
' scheme of sports for all was fully de-
.veloped at Annapolis. one nae come
to expect excellence among crews,
teams and individual athletes repre-
senting the Naval Academy.
Victory is ollcli. of course. bal-
anced by defeat, but the important
thing is that every team, win or lose.
is a worthy outfit from the stand-
point of technique. The Academy
authorities believe in victory and
bend every legitimate means to the
end that victory may be obtained.
here is a. very nice. point and Com-
mander McCandlcss, the athletic of-
ficer at the Naval Academy explain-
the
i
b.‘
lest: he be misunderstood.
, "We want our men to be good
lesers." he said. “but you must re-
member lhat we are developing at
this institution young men who are
- being trained to tight for their
country—and to fight to Win. There
must be no thought of losing when
you set out to face, say. a rival fleet.
It is your business to win and it is
this spirit which we seek to implant
in the Midshipmen.
"If this were confined merely to
varsity teams it might not be very
important .er even interesting. But
the fact. is that. this is cultivated to
the highest degree within the Acad-
. emy .walls. The zest. enthusiasm, and
‘ skill ,With which contests of all sorts
l“ are carried on among teams and in-
dividual performers representing the
1 various companies not only results in
I the development of athletes quali-
1' fled to command in the enlisted
farce and to lead in athletics there-
in—a very \Waluable almost an essen-
tial element in the relations of of-
floors and men those days—but leads
very often to the discovery of \ar-
slty material."
‘ Commander McCandlcss smiled
renilnlsccntiy as he recalled the first
intra~mu1ai football eleven which he
chiefly responsible in organizing
Wu he was a midshipman in 1:104.
The outfit called itself the St. Eliza—

pltel across the Severn devoted to

a dozen infra-mural football elevenI
playing under great electric lumps
throughout the football season. the
lights being necessary because play-
ers are not able to report until five
o'clock.
Just now Commander McCIndieIs
is fostering the idea of intrhmural
cutter races among the mldshipmen.
Four-thiry-one foot racing cutters
have already been secured and'eight
more are wanted from battleships
and cruisers that have been scrap-
ped. As a result of the cutter racing
which has already been inaugurated
the Navy athletic authorities have
not great fears that they will ever
lack rowing material for the regu-
lar shells.
NEW YORK, June 13.—-Andy
Kerr. who assists Glenn Wur in
football coaching at Leland Stanford
and is now in the East. says that
Ernie Nevers is likely to be rated as
the greatest back of the 1925 sea-
son. ‘
Whether this prophecy is confirm-
ed or not he is already entitled to
distinction as one of the leading two
sport men in the land. Nevers. in
other words, is e. pitcher—and a
good one.
In the annual baseball game
against California at Pale Alta. Nev.

but hit the longest home run ever
seen at Stanford.
Very frequently football players
are found playing passable baseball

stellar baseball. And still more rare-
ly do you find a. football man shin-
ing as a. pitcher.

end Christy Mathewson was better
known at Bucknell for his punting
and dropkicking than he was for his
pitching; none the less he w‘as mileI
above the average college human.
The writer seems to recall that Carl
Lundgren played football; if so. he
made no reputation that spread be-
yond the campus.
Other than those named. there
seems to be no football star who has
been proficient as a pitcher. 1
But to get back to Andy Kerr. his
presence and his line of conversa-
tion give rise to thought as to how
long it takes to convert an Eastern-
or or Middle Westerner into I. no.-
tive son. Those who have watched
the progress of Iowans resident in
and about Los Angeles. any four
years, so Andy has got some time to
go yet. However that may be. he
is talking right now like a born and
bred son of the Golden West. In-
spired by the torrid weather into
which he ran as soon as he landed
in this section. Kerr drew the dead-
ly parallel between the frying East
and the amiable climatic. conditions
of California. and then hastened to
add. that the climate It Polo AltI
was the super climate of the State.
Stanford, partisenI by the way. are
feeling pretty gloomy because the
Stanford track and field team did
not go to the intercollegiate meet at
Franklin Field. .
The Pslo Aliens defeated the Uni-
verslty of Southern California in I
dual meet and then U. S. C. came
East and won the I. C. A. A. A. A...
championship. Of course, the fact
that one college team defeats an-
other in a dual meet. furnishes no
ground for belief that it could re-
peat in a national meet. Yet. Stun-
ford enthusiasts feel that their- eth-
letes bed it in them to take thirty-

him seg- just how the left hip, when

NEW YORK. June 13—-Sid Ter-
ris. East. Side dancing master, again
demonstrated Ills superiority over
the veteran Johnny Dundee last
night at the opening of the Coney
Island Stadium. Age bowed to
youth and speed again as Terrie
plastered the Scotch Wop oil over
the ring and easily carried off the
decision in the fifteen-round main
event.
Dundee received a. wonderful re-
ception when Joe I-lumphreys intro-
duced hlin. The grand old man was
still a popular hero Terrie got his
share but the crowd to a man was
with the veteran. Dundee weighed
129. two pounds lighter than the
East Sidcr.
Dundee looked to be fit and ready
for a. hard battle. Tcrrls was c011-
ildeut and self-possessed. Sid grin-
ned while receiving instructions
from Referee l’urdy.
The boys got off to a fast pace
right oi! the reel. ’l‘crris put his
great combination left hook and Jab
into play. Dundee was not to be
outdone .11: easily and came on head
first. left hooking under a barrage
of rights and lefts. Dundee forced
the milling in the last half of the
first round earning anseven break.
'l‘crris. leaving ills footwork be-
hind him. fought toe to toe with his
elderly opponent in the second. It
was‘a treat for the eye to see Sid
pump hard lofts into Dundee's face
as fast as he could move the arm.
Two herd 1ights staggered Johnny
but the old boy kept on Coming for
more. The crowd cheered wildly
as Dundee planted a. left hook to
the body. Sid battered Johnny from
pillar to post. never giving him a
chance to get set.
Johnny Full of Fight.
Sid continued where he left of?
opening the third. handing Johnny
a neat lacing. Did Dundee back
up? No siree. lie was full of
fight. lle appeared to be 100 per
cent improved on his legs than the
night ht, was beaten by young Sid-
ney of the Madison Square Garden
ebsequles‘.
Only his fighting spirit kept Dun-
d11- cu his pins from the fierce on-
slaught in the fourth. Sid left-
jahbed him all over the place. in-
dee was missing hilt trying Wigs”
the strength at his command to turn
the, tide of battle. 'I‘erris. smiling as
he. ducked under Johnny's paltry ef-
forts. ran full tilt into a vicious left
hook to the body Sid was not hurt.
but for the remainder of the round
he made up his mind to keep the
bounding Italian in his place.
To the amazement of the specta—
tors Dundee staged a rally in the
fifth that almost swept 'l‘errls off his
