But Ben has been a bit of a problem to a lot of people for quite a long while. For instance, when he was attending Burlingame High Scheol, even God's gift to California, that potent and bland brand of sunlight which has given the Bear State the title of "sunkist," was not enough to make a little man of him. He played tennis, but so frail he was that he thought of IV.iIs.

Dusty Cooke may have played his last ball game. The i Yankee outfielder dislocated the shoulder of his throwing arm more than a month ago when he fell at Washington coming in on Oscar Bluege's single. He was sent home to Durham, N.

to rest, and didn't return to New York until yesterday when Dr. King, Yankee club physician, took the brace off his shoulder. To his dismay Cooke discovered that he couldn't lift his arm above his head. He's going to get back into his monkey suit at the Yankee Stadium today to find out just how much he can expect of the shoulder. He's going to try and lift that arm.

If he can't well, he just isn't going to be able to catch fly balls. If the worst happens and Cooke is truly through as a ball player this will be a real tragedy. The soft-spoken, likable Southern boy was just beginning to play the ball for which he's capable when he was hurt. He's a youngster with all of his baseball life before him. Show of llu Sriison Herman Perlick, onc-hal of the Perlick fighting clan oi Kalamazoo, seems to be sliding aloirg the downgrade In fistic circles.

A year ago the Westerner gave a good account of himself In a battle wilh Jackie Berg, and many thought at the worst the verdict should have been a draw. In a later battle between the two, the Englandrr badly licked the twin. Last night at Dexter Park, before an opening crowd of 3.000, Perlick apparently was following in the steps of retrogression, for the best he could do was to garner a draw with Mel Aragon, tough Cuban. In the feature eight-round snindlg. Aragon.

cool headed and poised, was more than a match for his rival in the opening rounds, for he was the better In the Infighting, while Perllrk repeatedly missed vital blows. Perlick staged game uprising to gain a draw. In the semi-final of eight rounds Four New Captains To Lead Poly Prep Four new captains were appointed by the Poly Prep athletic committee yesterday. Fritz Warner, veteran 'first baseman on the Blue and Oray nine, was named 1932 baseball leader. Morley Welles, a star on th undefeated lacrosse twelve, assumed the head position In the Indian sport.

Two track captains were appointed, Ed Dalmasse and Boyd Squires. Dalmasse will lead the Bluei and Gray runners In the outdoor campaign, while Squires will taka chnrje of the boys during the Winter season. AT.

But after watching Ben think himself out of that pocket in a way that was so daring as to make old-timers dismiss him from the race one fancies that Ben won't allow himself to get into many more pockets. Neither does one imagine that Ben will ever again go to the front down the stretch In the 440 and Jump to the conclusion that the dash la then and there won. He's a money player, that boy.

It was worth the trip to Philadelphia just to see him go. If any man can end the English Douglas Lowe's stranglehold on the 800 meters at the Olympic Games he's IT. Of course, Lowe ought to be through by next Summer. But, Eddie Aranguren Captures Cup For Second Straight Year C7 -A 1 nnouncmas By JAMES WHEN KENNETH H.

WANDERERS FILE PROTEST The Brooklyn soccer team has protested the awarding of the American Soccer League championship to the New York Giants on the basis that the Giants were scheduled to play one more game than Brooklyn. Football at AdeJphi Not to Be Curtailed Reports that Adelphl Academy planned to drop football got only a gasp of amazement today from Lloyd W. Johnson, principal of the school. "On the contrary, we plan to go in for sports In a larger way than ever," Mr. Johnson said.

"Football has so many advantages that any curtailment of the gridiron program would be the last thing to be considered. That is one sport that we plan to keep at any cost." Mr. Johnson also said that the arrangements for transporting the athletes from the school at Lafayette Ave. to the new athletic field between Douglaston and Queens Village on Long Island by bus would be carried on on a larger scale next season. Adelphl Academy has a 30-acre plot out there on Rocky Hill Road that is only partially developed.

Reports that Adelphl was to do away with football sprang from the decision of the student board to cut the sports budget. Jean Wright, Captain.

Too strenuous. The principal of dear old Burlingame, however, as a post-graduate in the Spartan school of applied physiology. "Not a chance," he said, in words to that effect, when Ben intimated that his chilblains, adenoids and bunions demanded rest. "What you need is more athletics, not less. Here's an order for you to take up one more sport." Loyally the boy took up track.

He found it was poison 10 nis soul- But an order is an order and, no matter what the Calamity Janes may say few high school boys at heart po Bolshevik. Ben trained. Then he entered a school meet. He won. Before he left for Stanford he did Kd seconds in the 440.

Everybody pets a kick out of winning. Bens been getting a kick out of track ever since. WHERE I MADE MY LITTLE MISTAKE Ben wears big silver-rimmed Classes and a mop of taffy-colored hair. He runs as though Ted Meredith's 47.4 second world record in the 440 was just tune-up pace. In his trial heat, last Friday, Dink Templeton, his coach, had told him not to run a front race, so Ben would go out in front and then drop back to last, come Into the lead again, drop back and then come on to win.

If ever a boy looked the mre record breaker, Ben was he. Yet when it came to taking the 440 title he got out in front on the stretch and let Vic Williams of Southern California steal it from him with a wide grin on his mouth. Ben ran oh, my, yes, how he ran! But his legs didn't seem to go any faster. Must a big bust," I yenea Jesse Abramson, who had gone sort of ga-ga over the young man. Jesse spat out a few words and they didn't sound nice even to these calloused cars.

AND I STILL THOUGHT THAT I WAS RIGHT The 880 came up. They were off, and there was Ben, neatiy pockklcu back in fifth place, a look of puz-led bewilderment on his kiddish apple-cheeked face. Four men were up r.head of him and the four wre Cobb of Harvard, Fleet of Boston College, Kelly of Georgetown and Hughes of Brown, all very had boys to have in front of anybody. Ben tried to Jimmy his way through that mob and found that elbows and heels were in his way. You couldn't help feeling sorry lot the youngster.

Class stuck out all over him, but he didn't seem to bk very lively in the think department. Coming around the last turn, he had dropped back to last place. Cobb had taken Hughes, to be taken by Kelly five seconds later. And Fleet was in there, paining wiui all up and his under lip tucked under his upper teeth. In the excitement of that finish one turned from pitying poor Eastman to watch the Big Four of the East cut each other's throats.

As Graham McNamee would say, "Boy, oh. boyl What a race!" The crowd was on its feet and that was why I and several thousand others almost missed what happened. WHERE I RECEIVED THE SURPRISE OF MY LIFE If Ben had hr.d a brown or a black tha'. .1 we would have had the shock of our cs there in the press box when the winner was announced. But Ben had hair the color of Midge Gladman Van Ryn's bob.

the blondest In American tennis. And Just over screaming heads of cash customers. Just under the brick rim of Franklin Field 'down front, a patch of blond head came tearing down the stretch like the little green lights that show the blocks where the subway trains are In the Clark St. tunnel. All you could see was that small patch of sunkist mane streak by the laboring Eastern boys, on the outside.

Ben had simply dropped back to last place to get a chance to run around his field. One hurriedly revised one's estimate of his think department. One also quickly doused all thought of his being a bust. One put his fingers in his ears against the hysterical outburst that cock-a-doodle-doo-ed from Jesse Abramson. And one made a note that the Fast had best kiss the 440, as well as the 880.

goodby for 1932 and 1933. Ben Is only a sophomore. HAS LOTS OF CLASS BUT NO STYLE Ben is a kid. on the short side of 20. He's a neophyte in running.

He started late aftpr yearning to be a tennis player. He will have some habits he won't shake off. One of Templeton's worries is to keep him back where he can strike for the lead on the stretch. Ben starts off as though running a 220 and, by golly, he runs the 440 all the way at the same pare. He's built like a kangaroo, so far as his long legs are concerned.

He flails the air with his arms close against his sides. It might heln him in his next pocket to learn to spread hi: elbows a bit. They are bony and could give his tougher, sturdier Eddie Aranguren crowned himself the all-around track and field champion of Adelphl Academy for the second conseoutive year at the annual field day, held yesterday afternoon, at the institution's park in Garden City, L. I. As a result of his victory, Aranguren was awarded the Sigma Psi cup at at distribution of the yearly athletics awards today by Principal Lloyd W.

Johnson. It required an extra event before Aranguren carried off the premier honors at the field day. At the conclusion of thi regular program. Eddie was tied with Ben Fer-rell, each having compiled 18 points. To break the tie a special standing broad jump was staged and Aranguren was returned triumphant with a leap of 6 feet 7 inches, Aranguren qualified for a gold medal for finishing first the track events, while Ferrell was similarly honored for top- ping the competitors in the field features.

Bob MacCormack and Jeff Conrad received silver and bronze medals for placing second and third, respectively, in the field events, anr Conrad also won a silver prize for finishing second in the track events. Ferrell took third place and the bronze medal. Wins Many Honors Ferrell turned out to be the mast honored boy of the season when the awards were made. He was the recipient of the Alpha Phi cup as the best all-around football player, a sport in which he earned his major insignia. In addition he won varsity letters In swimming.

baseball, basketball and as the school's most versatile gymnast. The seiderman cup as the best all-around linesman on the gridiron squad went to Charley Schaffer. Besides the Sigma Psi cup, Aranguren also captured the Delta Theta cup as the outstanding member of the basketball quintet which he captained.

He's another money player, a man who runs to pull the corks and break the hearts of his opposition.

They all come through, these champions, when their time comes. Take the famous case of Joe Hickey of N. Y. U. Joe couldn't win a mile race all season except at the Intercollegiates.

a couple of years ago, when he became the apple of Emil Von Elling's coaching eye by winning the only pair of miles that counted, the indoor and outdoor championships. SOMETIMES THEY FAIL TO COME THROUGH Not all the money players wiri, however. As, for instance, Barney Berlinger of Penn. Barney's performance last week-end was a marvel. Two seconds and a fifth, for a total of nine points.

He wanted to win the shot-put but couldn't get the cannon- ball out far enough. Yet he trotted over, after a fifth-place heave, to take his last javelin throw and pitched himself from fourth place to second. Later he was almost breaking his neck, doing 13 feet 8 inches in the pole vault, after mourning to me last Winter that he never seemed to be able to get up and over 13 feet two inches. Penn, without his nine points, would have been down in sixth place, instead of leading the Eastern colleges.
