Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, March 31.—The r ilitant female, one notes by the : ports pages, is becoming increasmilitant. A news dispatch

from Madison, Wis., where the State University rears its academic spires, states that one Dorothy Page, who shakes a mean mashie niblick, demands a place on the all-masculinc college golf team. It may not be easy to keep the young lady off. It so happens that she is one of the best golf

players in the country. Two years reo at what is technically known as the tender age of sixteen she won the Western championship. Last year she became the State titiist. Shot for shot Miss Page is said to l<e as good as any mere male in the university, and better than most of them. On form, and I mean golf form, she belongs. Only precedent is against her. It has never been done before. tt # a The university officials are in what is known as a quandary, j They don't know whether to accept the veung lady's application cr reject it. Possibly they fear that to encourage mixed competition may lead to embarrassing situations in the future. a ts a 7HAT if some Amazonian sophVV omore with a flair for open field running, or more likely, skirting the ends, should step out next fall and display unquestioned varsity qualifications? What would have to be done about her? It wouid be interesting to see how the old grads would react to such dramatic phrases as “Giddy Gladys, the Galloping Ghost," “Five yards Hannah” and "Bullet Bessie.” In don’t suppose, however, that any of the boys would hesitate unduly to respect the ancient ritual of carrying Gladys, Hannah or Bessie oft' the field on their shoulders after a particularly spectacular exploit. ,A passionate love for the old Alma Mater, or Alma Tomato, as Mr. Tim Mara calls it, would probably cause them to submerge any feelings of discrimination and do their full duty by the heroine. n tt a More disturbing news of the militancy of the female athlete is at hand from Griswold, lowa, Listed in the box scores of the high schoo lteam of that bustling metropolis is the name of ’’Buckman, R. F..’\ The full name is Alice Buckman, a 15-year-old bob haired young lady who has fielded and batted her way into a regular position. tt t? tt THE coach of that team is unhampered by precedtn. Evidently his main interest is in ability. \nd when Alice showed she could r;o and get that ball and slug that onion he put her in the lineup. One of these days, if you can believe what you read, Alice plans to play professionally. I fail to see why she shouldn’t. The baseball men say there aren’t enough players to go around now. There has been a sharp let down in the interest of the youth in the game. A number of the colleges have eliminated baseball from their athletic schedule. Maybe the gals will yet have to save Father Chadwick’s little plaything. There was a time when the sororities of swat contributed liberally i,o the uplift of baseball in America. This was when little groups of serious thinkers banded together as ‘Bloomer Girl” teams and toured vhe Yokel belt. n You don’t hear much of the “Bloomer Girl” teams anymore. As an institution, they began to fade some years ago when touched by the blighting talons of scandal. One of the most gorgeous of the Bloomers turned out to a vulgar male. More than that he turned out to be a swell ball player. a a TRIS SPEAKER said that in 1912 this reformed imposter was the greatest pitcher he ever saw. That was the year he pitched the Red Sox into a championship winning thirty-four games. Later he became a hard hitting outfielder. Now he is a Yale coach. You may remember him. His name is Joe Wood. When the heinous deception of Mr. Wood was disclosed in all its sordid ugliness it dawned on the rural public that a bloomer girl could be a bloomer girl and still be something else. It is curious but true that nothing can dampen the ardor of the male customer, seeking athletic novelties, so much as to discover along about the forth inning that the trim looking blonde covering third base carlies plug cut tobacco and needs a shave.

Rookie Southpaw Earns Praise NEW YORK, March 31. One of the best left handed pitchers to stray across the paths of John McGraw in recent years is Billy Walker, the $25,000 beauty from Denver. Walker may make the grade as a regular hurler for the Giants this season, but it he doesn’t he will in a year or two. Travis Jackson, Giants’ captain and shortstop, is one of Walker’s most enthusiastic boosters. “That kid will make a great pitcher one of these days,” he says. ‘‘He has a real fast ball, a good curve, and is working on a slow ball now. He’ll win plenty games before he gets through as a pitcher or I’m all wet.”

Indians Open Home Exhibition Schedule Here Next Wednesday

Hoosiers Are En Route to Indianapolis: Arrive at 11:50 A. M. Sunday. TRIBE BEATS READING Setzelit.es Connect for 17 Bingles in Tilt. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor EN ROUTE TO INDIANAPOLIS, March 30.—When the Indians left Plant City late Friday night for Indianapolis, they departed with at feeling of elation that comes after a deed has been well done. The Betzel pastimers bowed over the Reading Internationals, Friday, 11 to 5, and thereby completed their Florida exhibition schedule in a blaze of glory for it was the fifth straight

victory for the Hoosiers. In eleven exhibition tilts in the South, the Tribe won six, lost four, and tied one, and three of the wins were scored against major league opposition. The Indians cut loose with the bat Friday and pounded two Reading pitchers ter seventeen

The work of this lad has been so encouraging that Owner Jim Perry plans to carry him with the Indians until the player-limit rule goes into effect June 1. After that the husky youth will be fanned out to Quincy in the Three-I League. Ferd Schupp, veteran southpaw, hurled six innings Friday and he had a bad fourth round when the Keystones rapped him for four i runs. His control started to go bad j on him in the third and when he let down to regain it; the Reading athletes staged a rally in the following inning. He came back in the fifth and was very effective in that j session and in the sixth. Pug Cavet pitched the last three j innings and failed to show much to j rave about. He was wild and walked | two men and hit two. The veteran managed to get out of holes, how- j ever, and escaped with only one run against him. Riddle, Connolly and Anderson were the leading stickers, each with three hits. Reb Russell continued on his swatting spree and poled a j triple and single before giving way to Jacobson. Walter Holke pleased everybody by getting two hits in four efforts I and fielding faultlessly around the' initial sack. Friday’s action wound up the fifth week of spring training for some of the Indians and the fourth week for others. The squad will arrive in Indianapolis at 11:50 Sunday morning and the next practice for the pastimers will be at Washington Park late Monday morning, starting at 11 o’clock. tt tt XX Warstlcr again played a dandy game at short Friday and got one hit, a double. He sacrificed twice, one being the squeeze play. a a a Anderson made a brilliant catch in the first inning and saved Schupp. Two Reading runners were on base after two out when Anderson ran far back in right field and speared Scott’s long drive with a leaping one-handed catch. a a The only error in the fracas was against Connolly in the fourth inning on a wild throw.

It doesn’t bother Bryan Harriss, Red Sox hurler, the least when the fans josh him a bit about his height. You see, Harriss is the tallest pitcher in the major leagues and has been up with the Athletics and the Red Sox long enough not to worry about what the fans say. The 6 foot 6-inch Sox hurler is one of the reasons why Manager Bill Carrigan expects his club to be a bit better this year. Gun Accident Fatal Bn Times f-'per ini WAVELAND, Ind., March 31.

Lomski Wins Easily From Joe Sekyra ‘Aberdeen Assassin’ Pounds Way to Decision Over Dayton Pug. BY FRANK GETTY, United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK. March 31.—The championship aspirations of Joe Sekyra of Dayton, whether in the heavyweight or 175-pound division, have bee ndisposed of for the time being by his decisive defeat at the hands of Leo Lomski of Aberdeen. Wash. Sekyra was an easy prey for Lomski's right hand body blows, which won Friday night's fight in Madison Square Garden. Leo now will be matched with Mickey Walker, middleweight champion, for an open air bout in Newark, N. J. The so-called Aberdeen assassin won as he pleased Friday night, because the Ohio boxer left his body wide open for right hand punches at close quarters md left Ihe ring with his body an angry red from the effect of Lomski’s short, but vicious wallops. The fight which had promised so much by way of being a “natural” left much to be desired, since Sekyra. contrary to his custom, was on the defensive throughout most of the ten rounds and Lomski contented himseil with a strenuous and punishing body, attack. Tommy Loughran, who was introduced from the ring, lias little to fear from the winner. Lomski fought a blundering stubborn, onehanded fight against an opponent who turned out to be made to order for him. Whoever taught Sekyra to box had forgotten t oteach him to protect his left side, and it was upon this unprotected sector that Lornski beat a devastating drum-fire of victory. At times Sekyra showed flashes ol the two-handed offensive which had won him the admiration of Eastern fight fans, but these were only flashes in the pan. and always Lomski slowed the Ohio boy up with a severe attack on the body.
