PLAY MADISON ON SUNDAY Off to a fine start in the Wisconsin State Softball league race, the Green Bay Badgers are warming up for their first engagement with the Pond All Stars of Apple-ton, another league team, which will invade Joannes park Friday night. Manager Verne Lewellen expects that the Badger-Pond rivalry, which has yet to begin, will develop into one of the best soft-ball series in the state. The contest will mark the beginning of a busy week-end for the Badgers, as they play Madison Bowman Dairy team here Sunday night. Chances Are Good Green Bay's chances of upsetting both teams are fairly bright. Pond lost its opener Sunday night to Shorcwood, 4 to 1, with Smith and Fauk on the mound for the losers, while Madison has lost the services of its ace, Emmet Mortell, who may not hurl softball this season because of a Big Ten ruling.

The Bowman team, however, has another ace in Clarence (Swish) Baranek, who cut down Beloit Freeman, another State league unit, with two scattered hits Sunday night as Madison won, 4 to 1. The Big Ten ruling was a severe blow to Madison. Tn addition to losing Mortell the Bowman squad lost. Bill Coyne, Manny Frye. De Mark, John Potrakis and Stan Haukedahl, al! veterans, but the team which played Beloit Sunday appeared to have all the power of the old squad.

Shortnce of Hits Except for a shortage of hits, there appeared little reason to believe that the Green Bay entry which beat Racine Sunday night will not he a contender for the league title. Elmer Lautcnschlag-er was snaring everything that came his way in left field. Johnny Grabenau pitched 4-hit ball, and BADGERS DRILL FDR APPLETON Oneida, Shorewood Men Are Preparing 'Stag' Contests South American Heavyweight Will Meet New York Negro Tomorrow. BOTH WORKING OUT HERE Kubiak Meets Sylvester; Van, Borchert, Gerarden Also On Pro Card. Vincent Perrilli, South America, and Johnny Nelson, New York, two heavyweights with ideas of going places in the professional ring, worked out at the Y.

M. C. A. yesterday in preparation for their 10-round engagement at the Columbus Community club tomorrow night, Perrilli turned out to be a 200-pounder with a world of power, while Nelson is lighter and apparently very fast, leading Promoter Harold Young to repeat his prediction that the scrap will be "the best heavyweight fight ever held in Green Bay." Wins 14 Fights Perrilli has a better record than most of the outside heavies who have appeared here. He has fought 16 fights since coming to America, has won 14 of them and never has been flattened.

He defeated Tommy Loughran and lost a close decision to Champ Jimmy Braddock. More recently rerrilli served as sparring partner to Joe Louis, and only once was knocked from his feet by the redoubtable Bomber. Louis regarded him as the best partner he ever worked against. Nelson has been a resident of Green Bay for several weeks. He came west on the trail of a fight with Ad Wiater, didn't get it, and since then has been matched with a couple of boys in scraps which didn't materialize.

Now he has a tough opponent on his hands, and despite the fact that both fighters are clever, the windup may stop short of the scheduled 10 rounds. Kubiak Fights Again Al Kubiak, Pulaski heavyweight who has been fighting for geveral years, will make his first Green Bay appearance in some time by meeting Jack Sylvester, Milwaukee, in the eight-round semi-windup. Sylvester has fought here before, and the men are rated of about equal ability, assuring an even fight. Wilmer Van, Green Bay feath- erweight and former Golden Glov es champion, has been matched with Tony Muscarello of Chicago over the si round route. Muscarello has never fought here but is said to have power in both hands.

Billy Ross, the Chicago Negro who got a technical kayo over Art Brewel on the last pro card here, when Brewel's left eye was slashed, will fight Tommy Cross, hard-hitting New York Nejfro, in a feature engagement which is likely to develop into one of the best scraps of the evening. The opener will bring together Billv Borchert, Appleton, former Golden Gloves title holder, and Norb Gerarden, Green Bay, another fighter with tournament experience. SARAZEN TIED FOR LEAD IN MASSACHUSETTS GOLF FITCHBURG, Mass. Gene Sarazen, who had to out-score Guy Paulsen of Longmeadow, to gain the 1935 Massachusetts open golf championship here at Oak Hill, appeared to have the same assignment today as he approached the half way mark of his 72 holes title defense. The famous F.ast Brookfield, farmer-golfer, despite three penalty shots, the price he paid for taking two rash chances, finished in a first place tie with Paulr-en when he registered a par 71 for his first tour of th long and windswept course.

A stroke behind them came Harold (Jug) McSpaden of Winchester, a former mid-western professional star, who flubbed five easy putts for birdies as he put together an opening round of 72, one over. Vs.

MADISON, Wis. U.R University of Wisconsin sport followers will have their first opportunity May 30 to watch the Badger foot ball squart in action under the Notre Dame style of play as taught by Harry A. St uh ldr eh er, head coach and athletic director. The squad has been divided into the traditional "Army -Navy" lineups for a game to be plaved exactly Jankowski like an inter- collegiate contest, replete with cheers, jeers and band music. The annual game has more than usual significance this spring because none of the new coaching staff ever has seen the Wisconsin squad in competitive play.

The men will be trying out a new style of play emphasizing speed and deception in contrast to the "power football" to which they were accustomed. Each player will be trying to show at his best to win an invitation to return when the varsity squad Resumes drilling on Sept. "10. position on the 1936 team will be wide open when we start Sept, 10," Stuhldreher said. He appointed Fred Twomey coach of the Army group and Frank Jordan mentor lor the Navy.

tional Champs. BY SCOTTY RESTON (Associated Presa Sport Writer) NEW YORK Pi One foot on the bench and the other in the minors, the old men will come back on sunny days. Consider a lev; of them: Charlie Grimm of the Cubs, aged 3fi; Ki-ki Cuyler, Reds, 36; Ethan Allen, Cubs, 32; Red Lucas, Pirates, 32; Heinie Manush, Red Sox, 34; Bob Grove, Rod Sox, 36; Rill Terry, Giants, 37, and a few more, like Sam Leslie, Giants, or Fred Ostermueller, Red Sox, who are getting near the age when baseball players are considered old men. Had Reunion Yesterday Yesterday in the majors, the old boys had a reunion. Lucas, once the pride of Redland Field, went back there with the Pirates and pitched a four-hit.

ball game against the Reds to win 9 to 2. Ostermueller, the much-discussed questionmark of the Red Sox pitching staff, did the same against the Senators and Boston won, 6 to 0, to cut the Yankees margin to one and one-half games. Leslie, who made five hits in five times at hat against, the Phillies Sunday, gave the Giants a 1 to 0 victory over the same club by banging out a home run, and Ripper Collins, condemned to the bench by the excellent play of young Johnny Mize, won a ball game for the Cards when he came up out of the dugout in the ninth and hit a pinch single to give the Gardes a 2 to 1 win over the Cubs. Even Grimm, who counted himself out of the game last year, was bark in there yesterday and got a double and a single in three times up, while Allen, who was bartered away at the waiver price several years ago because he had a wear a black support, pounded out three of the ten hits made'off Paul Younger Pitchers Star Youngsters hold forth in the other two gnmesriiowvcr. Lee Ross, 19-year old rookie from the North Carolina textile league, pitched the Athletics to a 10 to 7 victory over the Yankees after the A's had taken three straight trouncing and Johnny Lanning, rookie Boston Bros' hurler, blanked the Dodgers 8 to 0.

So far this season, the old men have held the spotlight. Grove's pitching performance has been the highlight of the season, while the great, batting feat of Tony Lazzeri Saturday and Sunday against the Athletics is likely to keep the youngsters swinging for years. Yesterday, however. Laz-zeri was limited to one hit after hitting six home runs and driving in 16 runs in two days. One of the most surprising moves of the season was the acquisition of Johnny Vergez.

veteran third baseman, by the Cards from the Phillies. Leaders for years in movement toward young players, the St. Louis team' finds itself in the position of having to drop one of its youngsters in order to make room for a veteran turned away by the Giants and then the Phils.

Well over 100 business executives and transportation officials will participate in the Green Bay Traffic club's fourth annual outing and "blind bogey" golf tournament Wednesday at the Oneida Golf and Riding club organization leaders predicted today. Afternoon golf will follow a noon luncheon at the clubhouse. Numerous awards to the tourney winners given by local merchants, will be presented. Supper will be served at 6:30 and evening will be given over to cards and other games.

Beer and refreshments will be served during the evening. Club officers announced it is not necessary for members to obligate themselves for all the events planned and they are urged to come for any of the meals or the golf in the afternoon. Many of the crowd will be transportation representatives invited from outside cities. Green Bay Team Is Facing Busy Period of Exhibition and League Games; Two Rivers Here Saturday. The Detroit Giants, ranked as one of the best colored teams on the road, will cross bats with the Green Sox Wednesday at Joannes, park.

The Motor City nine is the first on the list of heavy schedule of exhibition games booked by the Bay management under the lights at the league grounds. According to Jerry Goodman, head of the Giants, his club has been on the diamond since 1923 and in those 13 years has made a dozen trips across the country and into western Canada. This spring the Giants spent six w-eeks in Mexico and then returned to Detroit late in April. En route the Detroiters performed in New Orleans, Memphis, Paducah, Portsmouth, Columbus, Dayton and Erie. Three Good Pitchers In Ernest (Red) Knuckles, Lofty Washington and Cannnn Ball Baker, the Detroiters claim three of the best colored pitchers in the country.

Knuckles, who is slated to hurl against the Bays, is a curve ball artist and is said to have a deceptive change of pace. When Washington, the portsider, is doing a turn on the mound, Knuckles often cavorts in the outfield. Al Morehead, one of the leading funmakers on the squad, does the catching and his tricks of the trade keep the fans laughing. Art Smith guards the initial hassock while Andy Childs, a pint-sized infielder, plays a lot of ball around the middle sack. Pete Moore is the shortstop and Art Judge does a slick job of third basing.

Judge is the "Metcalf" of the Giants and stolen bases are his specialty. Smith Cleanup Hitter Big Bill Smith, a veteran of the National Colored league, plays center field and hits in the "cleanup position. He is the "Babe Ruth" of the club. Last year he made 37 home runs. Al Parks and Bill Avery are the other first string outfielders.

Wednesday night's game starts the heaviest six-day schedule attempted by a Green Bay nine since the days of the old league, when Bobby Lynch and his Flies were playing every day ball. After settling the diamond feud with the Detroiters, Captain Mc-Clain and his players will be idle until Saturday night, when Two CONTINUED ON PAOK 15, COLUMN 3 I Canadeo May Meet Kenjalo On Amateur Program. A fast appearing amateur fight card for Wednesday, June 3, was announced today by Promoter Mike Muloney. The program will feature a double windup, with Omar Crocker, Iron Mountain, meeting Verne Patterson, Chicago Golden Gloves champ at 135 pounds, and Johnny Brunette, Green Bay, fighting Dave Luckett. another Chicago title holder, at 105 pounds.

The Chicago boys on the program are members of Jabber Young's team and are known as fine scrappers. Maloney is attempting to line up a semi-windup battle between Savior Canadeo, St. Norbert college, and Mike Kenialo, Iron Mountain, at 143 pounds. Other pairings will be as follows: Karl Noel, Marinette, vs. Jpsse Robinson, Chicago; 115 pounds; George Steffen, Lena, vs.

Frank Dtikct, Marinette, 160; Eddie Bo-dart, Green Bay, vs. Manie Boyd, Neopit, 175; Leo Hershman, Green Bay, vs. Matty Plovoitch, Chicago, 138; Marvin Christer.sen, Green Bay, vs. Lsuron Chesley, Lena, 122. ROBERT BASSETT TAKES CITY SQUASH TOURNEY Robert C.

Bassett is city squash champion, following conclusion of the tournament at the Y. M. C. A. Bassett finished his schedule without, losing a match, and Har-land Harris was the only opponent to score more than one game on the champion.

D. V. Pinkerton won second place with eight victories and one defeat, while Harris was third with four wins and one loss. John Rosse won two and lost four, Roger Minahan won one and lost two, John Burnham won one and lost three, John Torinus won one and lost four, and Charles Cady and Lee Cranston each took one and dropped five.

Moore, Phllliea NEW YORK UR Ha vim? pent so many days of my life bouncing about on the horns of a fractious dilemma, it was pleasant yes, pleasant yesterday to see liomcnne else in the same uncomfortable predicament. The sufferer was Mrs.

Helen Wills Moody, usually the most Imperturbable of women. I encountered her in the marble hall pf the Grand Central galleries, where she has an exhibition of 21 paintings, and she was more upset than she ever was on the court, even when her opponent stood at match point. I talked with her as she stood under one of her oils pink elephant ears with purple violets, I believe it was titled and she was in a dither. Not because of the painting, understand; pink elephant ears with purple violets is very well donp, and shows a very (sure forehand and backhand with the paint brush. She was in a rlithfr because she didn't know whether she should catch a boat for England to help the United States in the Wightmnn cup matches and to defend her Wimbledon championship, or return to San Francisco and Husband Fred Moody.

Want New Record want tn go so much," she said, "because I'm only human and would like to establish a new record for Wimbledon championships. You see, if I should be lucky enough to win it this ear I would beat Mrs. Lambc.rt Chambers' record of seven Wimhledon titles. I won my seventh, and tied Mrs Chambers' mark, last year. Of course, I might not win, hut I rlnn't like to think about, that." I asked her why she didn't get on a boat and go, if she cared so much? After all, I pointed out, nine of her paintings had been sold, at better than $400 per painting, and a celebratinn probably was in order.

"Yes," sh answered, "nine have been sold, and I feel so inspired, but the tennis schedule this year is so ronfusing. If I went to England for the Wightman cup and Wimhlcdorrj I wouldn't he back in this country until late in July. That would be all right, except that our championships start at Forest Hills early in September, and I want to play In (hem. That would mean a wait of better than a month in New York. I just couldn't go home and then return for Forest Hills.

Two such long train trips would kill me." Brine in C'uslnmers It will delight the Forest Mill tennis fathers to learn that Mrs. Mondv is determined to play In the American chamnionship this year. They were bitterly disap pointed when she failed to show tip last year, for the name Moody draws thousands in the gates, and tn get in the gates the have tn buy tickets. And if there' anything a lawn tennis father admires more than a beautiful forehand drive to the coiner, it's the Fight of a box-office boy yanking in the dough with a sure, swift backhand. This commentator on the sporting scene, whose observations are nlvvays models of saneners and fairness, thinks that Mrs.

Mondv should play in both the Wimbledon and American championships, train ride or no train ride. She owes that, much to the public.

By JOHN WALTER (Press-Gazette Sports Editor) A LTHOUGH SEVERAL of the Fox River Valley confer- ence high school track and field teams are strong as collective units, there is not much chance that any general revision of the individual records will take place when the athletes gather at Whiting field, Appleton, for the conference meet June 6.

The champion will be hard to name this season, as previous meets have indicated that almost anything can happen. The scramble between Green Bay East ancf Appleton for the valley relays crown may have caused some fans to disregard Green Bay West, which was a very few points behind, but the Wildcats need only a little better point distribution to slide home in the big meet. It is high time that the 100-yard dash record of :10.2, held by Howard Johnson of West and Russell Novak of Manitowoc, is broken, and there will be runners at Appleton June 6 who can do it Kurt Oelschlager of Oshkosh, Novak, and Reed Derouin of West. It is unlikely that there will be any further track records broken up to the mile, but in that event Ely Francis of Manitowoc or Joe Weber of East possibly may nose under the 4:39.3 mark set by Merrill Boehm of East last year. No one will touch the hurdles record this vear.

although Cash Van Alstyne of Appleton and one of the Beilke brothers of East may give it a scare. The shot record of 48 feet 5 inches, held by Bob Schroeder of Oshkosh. and the discus mark of 129 feet inch, owned by Champ Seibold, Oshkosh, are as good as gold. Don't look for new records in the other field events, either. Don Johnston of Appleton holds the pole vault mark of 1 1 feet, 54 inches; Orlebeke of Sheboygan, high jumped 5 feet 10'2 inches in 1926 and the record still stands, and Swede Johnston of Appleton set a 22 feet 1 inch mark in the broad jump in 1928 which never has been bettered.

These marks are safe for at least another year. and MODELS THAT LOOK LIKE NEW Each One With A MONEY BACK GUARANTEE At Our Main Show Room We're telling you that the sky-scraping pole vault pair of Southern California, Earle Meadows and William hope to break a deadlock at the national A.

July 3-4 competing in the N. C. A. A. games last year, they tied for first and shared the new record of 14 feet 1 inches then they tied for second with Emile Dubiel of Harvard in the Motor Co.
