Hugh Crit*. He’s the big question mark in the New York Giants’ National League pennant hopes. Hughie’s arm went bad last season and he missed most of the campaign, but the litle second sacker underwent a delicate operation during the winter. Now the doctors says he is as good as ever, but Critz has failed to cut loose. Doctors say he is afraid the injured arm will slip again. If he overcomes the mental hazard and regains his old form at the keystone bag. the Giants may be perched on top in September. TEN RUNS DIDN’T COUNT Rain Nullifies Brownie’s Big Inning against Nashville, By United Press NASHVILLE, Tenn..

The score at the end of the fifth inning was 6 to 3 with the Browns leading.

which will probably cause him to remember that time, four years ago. when he landed here for the first time. He was just another palooka then, with scarcely more than enough of what it takes to provide lodging for the night. For seven months he tried to get a match without success. The only thing that saved him from oblivion was the fadt he looked like Dempsey. He finally got a match with Joe Monte, and was so nervous over the thought of fighting in the Garden he was sick for two days before the bout. But he managed to knock Monte kicking. Then he took on Corri, Sekyra, Risko (the bout that made him) and Paulino, licking them all and earning a shot with Sharkey for the heavyweight title. You know the rest.

Leslie Barnhart Young Leslie Barnhart is making a determined effort to pitch himself into a regular berth with Emmet McCann’s Indians. Les has the “stuff,’’ but lack of control has handicapped him. McCann sent him out to face the Cincinnati Reds Thursday, and the lanky right-hander produced. He issued six passes, which resulted in both of the Reds’ runs, but he fooled the Cincy sluggers and kept them from bunching their hits. Seven blows were the best Babe Herman and company could do with Leslie's offerings.

MAXIE said he’d make a million this year when he was here in January. But at that time he p’ "led on meeting Walker in Miami in February, Sharkey in June and Dempsey in September. If all three had worked out, the million would, have -been his. But the Walker business went haywire when a Garden scout came back from ivr ami with the discouraging report that he lived there two weeks on $5, because none of the citizens could change the bill. Later developments proved that Dempsey couldn’t go ten rounds unless equipped with a sixty-horse power outboard motor. And that sort of thing is barred by most boxing commissions. Os course, there is the chance that the New York commission—the same commission that ruled Billy Petrolle didn’t win a technical knockout, but a decision when Battalino was forced to quit midways in the twelfth round—will okay such things as outboard motors. n n m COINCIDENT with Maxie’s arrival, his manager, Joe Jacobes, announced he had selected Green-Kill Lodge, about two miles out of Kingston, N. Y., as the camp for,training preparatory to meeting Jack Sahrkey in June.' Schmeling will depart Sunday night fo r Toronto for an exhibition bout on Monday. After resting at Virginia Beach. Va., he will continue his exhibition tour at Norfolk, Va., April 13, winding it up at Evansville, Ind., April 29. The complete tour schedule was announced three or foul weeks ago. After the tour, the champion will rest with his friend, Tom Taggart, in French Lick Springs, Ind., before starting training at Green-Kill Lodge about May 10. Schmeling now weighs about 200 pounds, Sharkey about 210. The champion expects to -enter the ring at 195 and Sharkey, 200.
