And he did it with 124 pounds up, top weight, in a manner that sustained all the good things said about him in The Eagle. James Butler's four-year-old bay colt by Sting Miss Puzzle won the Fair Play Handicap by four lengths. In doing this he not only stepped a fast seven furlongs but he was allowed to work out a full mile, which he covered in 1:37 3-5.

Walrnnan ami Wrslra-trn lo Fight for Private Schools' Tennis Title Oran Waterman and Giles Ver-straten, favorites to reach the finals in the singles competition, turned in impressive performances as the 16th annual private schools tennis tournament got under way yesterday at the West Side Tennis Courts in Forest Hills. Waterman, slim Poly Prep cup-tain, had an easy time disposing of Allen Harrison of Burnatd in straight sets, 61. 63.

The Blue and Gray ace held the situation well in hand throughout the entire match. He took the first set without any trouble and then eased up in the second until the score stood 3 to 2 in Huiiison's favor. At this point Waterman proved his superiority by taking the next four games to win the set and match. Verstiaten of McBiuney hud still an easier time winning his opening match. The Manhattan boy defeated Alfred Tolson of Colleginte School, 61, 60.

Contrary to Waterman's mode of attack, Verstraten took things easy in the opening and still won by a 6 1 score. In the second set the McBurney lad put mote power behind his service and placed his shots to blank his opponent, 60. The McBurney doubles team of Frledgln and Hulme, favorites to win the title, had little trouble disposing of Fisher and Richards of Collegiate School in straight sets, 60, 61. Williams and Danneman of Flatbush School were the only players forced to three sets to win. The Flatbush boys defeated Midlin and Shields of Berkley Irving, 63, 36, 63.

Cobb's victim was Al Walker, dusky Harlem heavy who tipped the beam 28 pounds under the Baltl-inoiean's 195. As soon as the fighters entered the ring the fans saw visions of a quick knockout and it came as soon as they expected it. Del Gals Impressive Pete Del Ciais, clever Inwood lightweight, scored an impressive decision over Fred Smith of Flushing, who substituted for Ralph Es-posito in the six-round semi-final.

It was a good scrap all the way. Del Gals' aggressiveness and his strong fighting in the last three rounds, in which he battered the Flushing boy hard with rights and lefts, gave him the decision. Bert Paxton, colored Detroit light-heavyweight, gained a Judges' verdict over Joe Hanlon of Long Island in another six-round engagement. Paxton, who substituted for Al White, forced the fight in every round and was repeatingly trying to tear through Hanlon's defense. The Long Islander's weight advantage, his longer reach and height were too much of a handicap for the De troit fighter and the latter was unable to do much damage to him.

In another six-round skirmish Joe Constantine of Valley Stream was awarded a decision over Pete Magallenes, Philippine featherweight. Magallenes was bleeding from the mouth before the first round was over as a. result of one of Constantinc's right hooks, but continued to mix gamely with the Long Islander in every round afterward although he received some hard punishment. In the four-rounders that opened the show Nick Pastore of Williamsburg outpointed Pete Klamm, Cleveland welterweight, and Jimmy Lorenzo of the Bronx fought a draw with Tommy Ababo, Jamaica bantamweight.

Umpire Moras. It would be a big help to the poor perspiring newspaper reporter if the National Billiard Association of America and the National Association of Amateur Billiard Players would kiss and make up. At one moment the press is informed that Edward Lee of the New York Athletic Club has captured the national amateur three-cushion championship. At another time it learns that Louis M. Volger of Indianapolis defeated the national amateur three-cushion champion, Frank I.

Fleming of Champaign, 111., in an exhibition game a few days in Indianapolis by 50 to 4ti in 7U innings. The funny part of it is thut both statements are correct. Lee is just as much a champion as Fleming, and vice versa. But both names should be qualified as national champion of the N. A.

A. B. P. and national champion of the N. B.

A. of A. Nobody in these United States has any right to say who is a national amateur billiard champion. The man with the best publicity agent seems to come out on top in a national way, though, and that just about gives the palm to Mr. Fleming.

He is baoked by an organization with plenty of income tax to devote to promotion. THOSE POOR ELKS All this comes about because the N. B. A. sends out a notice in which Lee is mentioned as winning an "all star Eastern tournament." For the benefit of the poor public, that tourney happened to be the N.

A. A. B. national championship, and it took place at the Elks Lodge, 1, in Manhattan. Also, the notice claims Lee will take part in the 1932 national tournament, no doubt meaning the N.

B. A. affair. This would rate Lee a disqualification from the N. A.

A. B. P. just as it did Edgar T. Appleby.

RUDOLPH SQUARES MATCH Erwin Rudolph, the world's professional pocket billiard champion, stands all even on blocks with Ono-frio Lauri at the Strand Academy. Laurl took the first, 125 to 66, in 10 innings, but Rudolph returned to win, 125 to 54, in 8 innings. Rudolph leads on points, 191 to 179. Lauri had runs of 35 and 25, while Rudolph ran 28, and 100 unfinished. MATSY'S HIGH AVERAGE Kinrey Matsuyama played excep tionally good 18.2 balkline in the first block of his handicap match with Harry Stern at the Bushwick room of the Lawler Brothers' Academy last night.

Matsy won, 200 to 2, In 2 innings. This gave him an average of 100. His high run was 172 unfinished, unusual for such a short game. DePlERRO SCORES TWICE Ralph DePierro, Brooklyn's professional pocket champion, won two exhibition games at Lawler's in Rjjshwick. He defeated William Gilmore, 75 to 10, in 6 innings, and Rudy Putke, 75 to 23, in 11 innings.

DePierro ran 21, 40 unfinished, and 23. Gilmore ran 5, and Putke 10. At the same room Steve Huggard beat Dr. Everett Moore, 157, 1511 at three-cushions. St.

Ezra's watermen automatically go to the head of the class, overwhelming favorites. And Harvard men are laying their ears back, waiting tor what they view as the Inevitable when the command is yiven lo row there at the watery feet of the bluffs on which stands so proudly the university that grabbed oil Jim Wray when Harvard decided lo start tinkering with Us navy. WKAY ANI KliKKE 1'1'KE OPTIMISTS In fact, it is an old and ironic fact that Whiteside will be sending his Crimson crew against Syracuse and Cornell and M. I. T.

with two ex-Harvard coaches laying their plans to leave him In their wakes. Haines at M. I. T. will have the harder job to do that.

Wray will have the easier. When a crew can leave the stiikeboat rowing, not, sprinting, and hold such a crew as Yale within hail, It serves notice that It will take a lot of beating. But when it gets down to hear Wray and Jimmy Burke, the coxswain, tell it to 28, a full count of 5 lower than Yale, and romes up. doing it then It might well be classed as a favorite for all Its races. It might even establish a reputation for Invincibility.

ITIIACANS STRUCK AT RIGHT MOMKNT The fact Is, however, that Wray seems to have builded for rough-keepsle. Old watermen have argued until blue In the face over whether a great sprint crew could or ought to be a great four-mile crew. Those who could see any difference must have got a terrible Jolt up there between the Corot-tinted hills ol Derby-Shelton. As enthusiasm simmers down and Cornell's performance recedes into crew history, one begins to doubt whether the Red and White would have handed Yale so much of a greater spanking If It had wanted to extend itself. One saw a superbly trained eight from Ithaca, lean for all Its bigness, row a 36 towards the finish that made the shell leap away from Yale, which, Jumping suddenly from 3(1 up to 38, had started to close In the open water gap.

It was pretty. It was even awesome. But If Cornell had walloped the stream In the traditional high beat of its two rivals, how much would the Red and White have pulled away to? Smartly the Ithaca ns rowed and struck at the right moment, but they saved their extra drive to race with. COLUMBIA, TOO, CAME FROM BEHIND Columbia legged It down the Harlem about the same distance ahead of Yale. They will tell you that the Lion had to work like a Fred Berger in Summa Trade It Is believed on the Coast that Tom Turner of Portland put over one of the shrewdest deals of his career when he traded Homer Summa to the Missions for Fred Berger, young brother of Wally.

One must not forget that it was his first outing under colors this year, and that he was conceding not only actual weight to each of his opponents but many pounds by the scale. If he continues in the same manner and he is a colt which improves under racing, if not raced too much it's quite likely that the Ace of East View Farm, in the Westchester Hills, will not only be a thorn in the side of Sun Beau, but is apt to stick a stiletto, figuratively speaking, into the reputation of the champion old horse of the turf. They will meet in several of the important handicaps which are down for decision at Belmont Park and Saratoga.

The trials of Questionnaire have been so impressive this Spring that despite the fact that he was meeting horses like Black Majesty, Milkman, Finite, Black Mammy and Peto, the layers of the odds could see no horse likely to beat him. Accordingly, thev offered only 3 to 5 acainst his chance. At times this price went to 13 to 20 and at other periods of the speculation it dropped a 11 tn on Tii it the averse was 3 to 5 against his chance. Big odds were offered against the others. It was no great contest although Questionnaire had to step fast to win.

If he had not possessed a great deal of quality, and if he had been "short" of physical condition, not on razor edge. Black Majesty would have trimmed him. B. Coe's brown colt, 4, by Black Toney Herodias. showed sparkling speed the first this season and cut out a merry clip.

He opened a gap of three lengths. But Workman, who rode Questionnaire, would not permit him, the leader, to get too far in front. The result was a two- rinrsn race. Questionnaire, under a pull, raced hehind Black Majesty until the Turn for home where he moved up made a bold challenge when straightened out in the stretch and drew away to an easy victory. Milkman was third a head in front -mart Mammv.

Finite ran a nnnr race an has not, seemingly recovered from the shaking up he received when he was cut about the head in an automooue accident while being transferred from Erdenheim Farm, near Philadelphia, to Belmont Park. The fractional time shows how fast the first stages of the race were sprint- ed: 23, 46, 1:10 3-5, 1:23 2-5. A "DOUBLE" FOR W. ZIEGLER JR. William Ziegler Jr.

and his trainer, Clyde Phillips, put over a "double" during the afternoon. He did it with his Juveniles, The Crane and Peacock Alley, which won the first and fifth races, respectively. The former was as high as 15 to 1 at one time in the odds; the latter receded from 2 to 1 to 13 to 5. Each won by open daylight. Each stood a drive and forced the pace and then when the others stopped they continued on their fast clip and won.

The Crane beat a bunch of maidens and stepped the four and a half furlong course in 52 3-5 seconds This was the fastest time of the meeting over the course by anv juvenile. But it must be said that the Widener course in previous days was not as fast as it was vesterday. In addition a light breeze biew down the stretch at the backs of the youngsters all the way. The Crane is a brown colt, 2, by Ballot Mammy. There are not many young sons and daughters of this once notable race horse In the game.

The Crane Is a sturdy looking two-year-old. peacock Alley stepped even faster down the four and a half furlong course than his stablemate. His time was 52 seconds flat. This fel- low is a chestnut colt, 2, by Epinard Gossip Avenue. He literally ran his opponents legweary and then drew away to win as he pleased.

His performance smacked of merit for he easilv beat Scion, the favorite, a winner at the Jamaica track, and Air Pilot, a winner in Maryland. After the race Peacock Alley walked to the scales as though he was not the life of the party but what he had lust accomplished was merely a matter of routine an every day job. Nothing seemed to bother him or worry him. Boojum again disappointed. The fastest Juvenile of the early Spring of 1929 was entered for the second race, a dash of one mile.

But again he was withdrawn. This left Hot Toddy. 2 to 5 favorite over Wedunlt, Hishiand Belle and Sir Johren. E. Watters.

But Cornell has pushed Glendon's fine Morningsids Heights crew out of the spotlight. Unless hald-hended Pete McManus gets a cramp or Bob Wilson at stroke gets a brainstorm, we are going to see a return to the old Courtney days when Poughkcepsie used to be the field against Cornell. That Jim Wray has something like this in mind may be gathered from the way his crew started its race last Saturday.

Beyond Cayuga lies the Hudson. The Red and White hns high hopes of making it two straight. YAI.K HAS NOT LOST FAITH IN I KADKK Sardonically, the two Yale crew to lose last Saturday were thor coached by Ed Leader. Speaking to. a Yale man as we stumbled over the Derby tracks and ducked amowr motorcars whose brakes screamed that we might remain alive, I happened to remark that It was a tough sidelight of a beautiful afternoon.

"Oh. we cant win all the time," he said. "We've had it coming to us after the past few years." Not a murmur of complaint. Yale Vina ftiilH in utttnr niiH Inntrc tn Its record. If things are reversed this year, will be able to swallow his disappointment in silence.

Leader gave him plenty to crow about, and 1932 is another year. But at least In one other boat-house already there is to be heard the mutter of discontent. It Is being taken lor granted that next year will find one fine old weather-beaten face missing from the coaching launches. The colleges don't Insist that they win. Just, so long as, for instance, the crew doesn't lose.
