CYO boxing in--1 structer nays they were rematched to satisfy a popular demand. (1, res, a splendid boxer, was leading by several points at the end of the first two rounds by virtue of his superior height and reach, but Conrad, staging a terrific rally in the third frame, nearly pulled a decision from the fire when he sent Keres to the caUvas with a flailing attack near the clos -of the final canto.

COACHES FIGHT AGE LIMITS FOR PREP ATHLETES I Austin. Tex. (U.R) Reduction in ■ the age limit for Texas high school athletes has moved coaches in the state to as a referendum of school principals and superintendents before the 18-year-old maximum becomes* effective in September, 1936. Texas Interscholastic League officials are considering the proposal. Reduction of the present 20year old maximum was ordered last spring when evidence was presented that tne rule encouraged athletes to remain in school long er than other pupils. The average graduation age in Texas is 17. Several members of the Texas >igh school couches’ association bitterly opposed the limitation. TheyTelieved it would destroy the quality of high school athletics, long a source of pride to South western schools. An exhibition grid game between senior stars of 1934 recently show ed more than half would not have been affected by the new regulation. Twenty-four of 43 participants were eligible under the new rule. — o REDS' MANAGER PREDICTS MORE NIGHT BASEBALL — Cincinnati. O.

CHICAGO CUBS WIN NATIONAL LEAGUE TITLE Trounce Dizzy Dean Eo ('inch Flag; Cop 21st In A Row St. Louis, Sept. 28-XUR)—Still going at a clip startling to the most reasoned baseball fans, the ( Chicago Cubs sewed up th.' National League pennant flag Friday afternoon by trouncing the great Dizzy Dean and the St I Louis Cardinals. 6 to 2. for their I 20th consecutive victory. As an anti-climax, the Cubs I rallied to mark up a 5-3 triumph |in the second game to make it 21 in a row. The triumph which drove the final nail to clinch the flag no one hardly dreamed they would win last July 6, when they started their spectacular comeback from , fourth place—loVi games behind i the then pace setting New York | Giants—was all the new champions needed to end their glorious march, putting them five games np and only three games to go I over the fallen world’s champions. But the decisive way they did it. with a comeback, hits to throw away and almost uncanny fielding drew the admiration of the half frozen 9.000 fans that shivered throughout the game, the first of a useless double-header. Face to face with the one and only Dizzy Dean, a 28-game winI ner with a smirk of invincibility on hi« lips, the Cubs spotted the great right-hander a two-run lead ; in the first inning with two singles, a walk ajid two errors. They let Dizzy roll along with what I every one thought might be an un- ; surmountable lead until the third I inning. Then they tied the score, moved lup their heavy artillery and i smashed the great one’s offerings Ito bits. Big Bill Lee shackled I the Cards the rest of the journey with four hits for his twentieth i triumph of the campaign. In the i.eeond game, the Card- . | inaJa bopped on the veteran Char-
