INDIVIDUAL SCORING Goals Amd peats in Mtoavo secies SrAMO Babe Ruth, holder of records galore In baseball, goes the honor of having performed the greatest offensive and de fensive feats ever staged in a single world series game. When you take Into consideration all the famous athletes who have participated in the diamond classic, it is easy to realize what a remarkable young man Mr. Babe Ruth really Is, provided you don't know It. Ruth's defensive performance happened in the second game of the 1916 world series between Brooklyn and Action Is Lacking Official' Viewpoint-Want to See Star.

The popularity of any sport event expends upon action, i Recently I witnessed the first game cf the world series of professional basketball between Cleveland and Lrooklyn. instead of plenty of action, the jama early developed into a foul- uirowing contest. The progress of the game was halted 4 times, because me or Uie other team violated some ule. Only seven goals from field were made by the members of the two ams, composed of the outstanding players in the country. Three of the o.ven fle.d goals resulted from long rather than team play.

The game was close but devoid of spirited action. It early resolved itself into a foul-throwing contest in which the Celtics, of Brooklyn, excelled. Professional basketball must speed up the notion if it Is to retain the great popularity that swms Just ahead, should this flaw In the play be remedied. I had a very interesting chat with Joe Carr, president of the professional basketball kague, prior to the opening game of the basketball world series. He admitted the foul bugaboo was causing his league no end of worry.

In the course of our conversation, Carr expressed the bclierthat a rule similar to the one in vogue in hockey, penalizing the player who- offends by a one or two-minute removal from the frame, might make for less fouling and more action. That suggestion struck me as a mighty good one. With a star sitting out two minute on the bench because of rough play, it is easy to imagine the frantic effort the opposition would make to take advantage of having five men on the floor to four of their rivals. President Carr said he Intended to urge the adoption of such a rule at the meeting scheduled to be held a few hours after I talked with him. Since the league took no action on the hockey suggestion of penalizing the player by their removal from the game, apparently the magnates didn't think it would work out In basketball.

Basketball rules jail for the removal of a player from the game for four personal fouls. Promoters of pro basketball insist such a rule is not feasible, good business for their game. The sell you the fans want to see the stars in action and therefore ruling them out of the game because of excessive fouling, would kill off interest. In addition they tell you that such a rule would make It necessary for each team to carry at least 12 men to be prepared for the emergencies that of necessity would present themselves. The expense would soon sink the league.

However, the reaction of the fans to the first game of the basketball series was such that the managers and magnates voted to restore the personal foul rule to the professional game. Increasing II from four to five fouls for removal from the game. Better basketball Is sure to result with the restoration of the personal fool rule. However, the officials must mix In a little common sense and not be toa technical. In order to ret the best results from the new legislation.

FALCONS ON DIAMOND The Polish Falcons will hold a base-fcall meeting In the Falcon club f-ooma tonight, at 7.30 o'clock. The Falcons' prospects for this season are bright. Any local Polish young man, who is not as yet a member of tho Falcons, but would like to have a try-out, should be present at this meeting. SETTLEMENT QIINTETS TO BATTLE FOR TITLE Jimmy Mullen's Pioneer team will lumls hthe opposition for "Pickles" Patterson's Mohawk quintet tonight the People's Settlement. The Pioneers and Mohawks will battle for the championship of the Settlement.

The game will start at 8 o'clock.

RA YROMNEY OUWUNCIIES JA CKSONINPARK RING INFIRSTTILT National League Favorites Beat Pete Donohue, Reds' Ace, in Opener YANKS AND GIANTS MAUL PILL HARD By ItENKY L. FARRELL, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 13. An axiom of baseball says: Openers mean nothing.

It the standing on July 4th that counts." That doesn't mean that early games don't count In the final computation but by mid-season the staying power of the pennant contenders can be more accurately computed. The opening games to give some material for the use of the dope pencil, however. The Pittsburgh Pirates, rated by many critics as the favorite for the National League championship won the starter against tho Cincinnati Reds, another contender. The Pirates also handed the first defeat of the season to Pete Donohue, ace of the pitching staff upon which the Reds have to depend. Washington, depending almost entirely on Coveleskie until Walter Johnson's broken ankle mends enough to permit him to take a regular turn did not look so good when Coveleskie had to relieve In the fifth inning while the team was still ahead.

CovelPKkie -is said to have a lame back hanging over since he pitched In his last -word's series with, tape bound around from his Shoulders to hips. If he is not able to pitch a full game with a commanding lead the chances of the Washington club have to be reduced plenty. The hitting power of the New York Giants was shown In their opener. Of course, they were playing against the Phillies but It should not be overlooked that they started against Carlson, one of the best pitchers In tho league. The lusty stick work of the Yankees, which has been figured to overcome the weakness of a pitching staff was shown in the attack on Lefty Groves.

admitted to be about the greatest left-hander In the game. The failure of Alexander to go the limit for the Cards was also of more than ordinary signlfance as Alex Is one of the-main hopes of the St. Louis champions.

Louis at Chicago. Special to The Evening Journal. NEWARK, April 13. Announcement was made today by Dr. Walter Hulllhen, president of the University of Delaware, on behalf of the Athletic Governing Board of the institution, of the appointment of Joseph J.

Rothrock, as director of athletics and head coach at the Uni versity to succeed Frank M. Forst- burg, resigned. Rothrock, who Is a graduate of Delaware, Class of 1922, was one of the best athletes ever turned out by the Blue and Gold, winning his letter In three sports, football, baseball and basketball. He Is now physical director at the PeekskiU Military Academy, N. where he has remarkable success.

With the appointment of Rothrock the Athletic Governing Board also decided on a new policy as to sports at the University and especially as to football, that of naming more assist ant part time coaches than has been done in the past. Dr. Hulllhen in discussing this new policy stated that starting with the football season, "it is proposed to name a line coach, such for Instance as Gus Zlegler, who aided the team so materially several years ago, an end coach, such as Major Underwood now connected with the military department of the university and who played end at West Point some years ago and a back-field coach, for at least part of the season to assist Rothrock." Dr. Hullihen explained that he did not mean that either Zlegler or Major Underwood would be named in this capacity, but only used their names to illustrate what the board has in mind. These three assistants with Head Coach Rothrock would form a board of strategy to work the plays In advance and to agree on methods of training.

This new system, it Is believed by the board and by the president and alumni members of the Athletic Council, will get much better results from the teams than have ever been secured In the past. Doc" Doherty, also a graduate of Delaware, is to remain as assistant physical director in charge of all the finances of the athletic department. The decision on the election of Rothrock to succeed Forstburg was unanimous. The Athletic Governing Board consists of Dean George E. Dutton, chairman; Dean O.

Jackson, generally held as the better boxer, did not appear so last night. Either Romney taught him respect with some heavy punishment right In the very first round or he lost the range entirely and his sharpshootlng tactics were of no avail.

In fact, Jackson seemed timid or cautious or both last night. Romney is of the fighting type and Jackson of the boxing type with an acknowledged hard right. It seemed strange that Jackson was unwilling to take the lead and it appeared that he did not want to take the chance on the damage he might inflict if he tried to open up. As it was Romney got home any number of telling blows and made Jackson miss on an average of greater frequency than did his opponent. Jackson also landed some hard punches but they were few and far between.

He never had Romney in the least bit shaky and took all that the Jerseyman had to offer and Jackson has won his last few bouts by the knockout route. Romney might have been said to have won the bout in the very first round for Jackson never had any speed after the drubbing he took in the initial frame. A wicked left hook raised a lump under Jackson's right eye and a sever pounding in the midriff seemed to slow him up considerably. It took much of the fight out of the Penns' Grove battler and Romney went along to win as he pleased, with Jackson doing most of the backing away. Romney was unmarked at the end of the engagement.

The bill of six bouts was one of the best ever presented at the "Pot" and the attendance, counting everybody, was about the largest ever to attend the weekly entertainments. The' windup proved a fitting final to an Boston. Babe was then the sflar southpaw of the latter team. This affair went 14 innings and was finally won by Boston 2-1. Sherry Smith, now with Cleveland, opposed Ruth.

With two down In the first inning, "Hi" Myers hit a home run. That was Brooklyn's lone tally. He held the Dodgers scoreless in the ensuing 13 frames, allowing only five hits. His offensive record was the making of three home runs In one game in the 1926 clash between New York and St. Louis, the most marvelous bit of super-slugging the game will probably ever see.

1 Quite some attraction, this fellow Babe Ruth. one round did either have a real de elded advantage and that was when Arizona made Golden cover up on the ropes under a flurry of fists In the third. Watson Finch got what he begged for. A return bout with Young Ketchell, of Chester, and another knockout at the hands of the ever- pleasing, clever and hard-hittingt young welterweight. Ever since their previous meeting when Finch lasted two rounls and a portion of the third, he has insisted that Ketchell's win was a fluke.

He didn't go one full round last night, and was counted out on the ropes by Referee Denny after he had been spilled to the canvas a few seconds previous. Hanging on the ropes to do his quitting stunt Finch knew then and now that he is absolutely no match for the rapid rising Ketchell. The Chester lad pounded Finch all over the ring before he decided to drape himself over the ropes. Battling Needham, another South Jerseyman, returned to the ring after a long lay-off to show that Jack Blades, Pennsy fireman, is no match for him. Needham feinted Blades into openings as he pleased and rang the b'll by hitting the button on the fireman's chin several times.

Blades was on the floor three times in the first round and Referee Denny halted the bout after his final flop. Frankie Nelson, Wilmington lightweight, socked his way to a win over Mickey Brown, a tough Trenton scrapper, ftankle hit the invader with everything he had. but Brown was on his feet all the way and when the gong sounded. Nelson connected hard and often, but Brown proved himself rather rugged by absorbing all of the punishment and coming back for more. He landed but few blows himself.

In the opener, Lew Williams, of Penn's Grove, brother of Lew Jackson, won over Harry Nolan, of Wilmington, by slight margin. Wil- dreamland in the first round, in which Nolan waded in and hammered him all about the ring. The second round was a complete reversal of the first with Williams taking the honors and from then on he had the edge by a shade. Nolan deserves plenty of credit for his gameness and the manner in which he kept boring in to the finish. He was hit oftener, but hurt less than Williams.
