Seven varsity teams, seven freshmen, and one junior varsity have won a total of 20 contests while losing 39. That gives Cornell a winning percentage of .339 in Its spring sports season. Only teams above the.500 mark are baseball with nine wins and six defeats, tennis with six wins and four defeats, and the jayvee crew with two straight victories and no defeats.

The 150-pound crew and the freshman lacrosse and tennis teams sport records of one win and one loss.

Pennsylvania. Penn to Meet Cornell Nine On Wednesday Cornell baseball club Is back at Hoy Field after a visit to three rival camps of the Eastern Intercollegiate circuit and on Wednesday at 4:15 p. m. will meet Pennsylvania, one of the teams it has lost to this year. In the opening game of the season Penn beat the Big Red, 1940 champions, by 5-4 at Philadelphia.

On the recent Eastern swing the Big Red lost a second league game to Princeton, In a game cut to five innings because of rain. While touring the last two weekends the Redmen took a close 3-2 win over Yale and won their second game from Columbia, 7-2. Yale will pay a visit to Hoy Field Saturday to help Cornellians celebrate Spring Day. Coach Mose Quinn expects to start Walter Sickles against Pennsylvania, or else to insert him at the finish of the ball game. He wants to have him ready for the Yale game Saturday.

Ray Jenkins will work part of that Penn game. Belnstein May Pitch Penn Is liable to use Arnold Belnstein, the lad who got the decision over Cornell in the opener. Dr. Walter Cariss, Penn coach, will also have Tony Caputo and Leo Kahn. Al Kelley or Lee Turner will start in left field Wednesday and Mike Ruddy will patrol center and Walt Matuszczak, right.

Matuszczak has been hitting pretty well of late. He has boosted his average from .143 to .240. The team's leading hitter is Bud Finneran with .292. In league batting circles Ronnie Stillman is high for Cornell with .355. He has hit for .274 in all his games, however.

Yale's Howie Kaye is the top league hitter with .563. Penn Player Second 'Bernie Kuczynski of Penn is second high with .526. He has had 10 hits in 19 chances. Only Stillman has had more hits. Ronnie has smashed 11 but has had 31 at bat.

John Orr, Dartmouth captain, set a new league record last week when he stole five bases against Colum- bia. He lead3 the league with nine thefts while Frank Reagan of Penn has stolen five. Reagan will catch for the Quakers at Hoy Field Wednesday. The hefty Penn batter, Kuczynski, played left field. If he doesn't pitch, Beinstein, who is hitting .360, will play right field.

Other league games Wednesday will find Dartmouth at Harvard and Princeton at Columbia. Standings mm Two varsity boat changes in th Cornell navy were made Mondav by Coach Harrison San ford. Before practice began, DuBois' Jen kins, who rowed No. 6 in the junior varsity boat at Syracuse Saturday was moved up to the firsts in a dt' rect swap for Sophomore Bill DlclJ hart. While on the water Mario Cunl-berti, 180-pound lad Call-fornia, was switched from the second boat to the first in exchange for Nick Kruse, at stroke.

Whether the changes will be of material aid to the varsity or whether they will just weaken the jayvee boat cannot be told at this time. Coach Sanford said he antlci. pated no further changes, at least until after a time trial which he has set for Wednesday. Cuniberti has had little rowing experience. He competed as a fresh-man two years ago but didn't row last year.

Sanford remarked that "he stroked a good race at Syracuse." In that the jayvee shell ran to its second straight triumph. The varsity and freshmen have both lost their first two races. Today Sanford will give his oarsmen a fairly good conditioning row with sprints to play a large part They went nine miles on the lake Monday and had several long sprints. As a result of the changes the first two boats are now: Varsity: Cuniberti, stroke; John Aldworth, Jenkins, Franklin Eggert, John Perry, Stan Al. len, Joe Lanman, Dick Davis, bow; and Charles Boak, coxswain! Junior varsity: Nick Kruse, stroke; Ormond Hessler, Dick-hart, Bob Gundlach, Bob Har-ley, Furman South, Commodore Jack Kruse, Francis Reed, bow; and Arthur Jones, coxswain.

Syracuse Ohtains Home Run Star Syracuse UP) Bill Nagel, International Baseball League home run champion last year, reports to Syracuse today in the first of a two-game series at Rochester. The Chiefs acquired Nagel outright from the Philadelphia Phillies Monday, but President Clarence Schindler declined to disclose the purchase price. Diamond Stars By The Associated Press Jimmie Foxx, Red Sox Hit three-run homer to pace victory over Yankees. Dutch Leonard, Senators Held Athletics to six scattered hits. Lon Warneke, Cardinals Kept seven hits spaced to beat Pirates.

Bill Lee, Cubs Stopped Reds with six-hit pitching. A group of quail Is known as a bevy. 30-35 miles per gal. 2,000 miles between oil changes Lowest upkeep cost Payments as little as $485 a week IA PAIINA-IA PAUNA LA PALINA IAPAMM4 to Get Back to By The Associated Press The heaviest pressure In the major leagues today is not on the first-place clubs. It is on the World Champion Cincinnati Reds and the once invincible New York Yankees, both of whom are in fourth place in their respective leagues and virtually at the crossroads of the pennant trail.

Their predicaments are strangely similar. Each has lost five of its past seven games. Each has had trouble rounding out its pitching staff. Each has been in a batting slump. Each will be at home today and Wednesday for a two-game series with the league leadersthe Brooklyn Dodgers at Cincinnati and the Cleveland Indians at New York.

Cubs Humiliate Reds The Reds were humiliated 12-1 Monday by the Chicago Cubs and left staggering on the fringe of the second division in a fourth-place tie with the Boston Braves. In 11 games in the past two weeks the Reds never have made more than seven hits and have averaged five. They were held to six Monday by Big Bill Lee. No ball club, no matter how perfect its pitching or how flawless its fielding, can get anywhere with that kind of motive power. The Reds, however, haven't even been getting consistent hurling from anyone except Bucky Walters, and their famous defense has shown signs of collapse.

They made four errors Monday and three the day before. Pearson Lasts One Inning Monte Pearson, former American League ace who has been nursing his pitching arm all spring, was unveiled In Monday's tussle and lasted only 1 innings as the Cubs scored two in the first and five in the second. The Dodgers, on the other hand, have won five in a row and 20 of their past 23 since getting off on the wrong foot against the New York Giants. The St. Louis Cardinals also have righted themselves after losing three straight in the East and as the result the Reds not only are 8 games out of first place, but are seven full games away from second The Cardinals conquered Pittsburgh again Monday, 6-2, with a 13-hit attack and the smooth, seven-hit pitching of Lon Warneke.

It was the fourth victory without defeat for the veteran righthander. Red Sox Whip Yanks The Yankees were whipped, 8-4, by the Boston Red Sox with old Lefty Grove spacing 10 hits for the 295th triumph of his career and his second of the season. The Sox made only eight blows, but bunched five with a half-dozen walks by Lefty Gomez for all of their runs in the first three innings. Jimmie Foxx hit a homer with two on in the first inning. The only Yankee victories in their past seven contests were two surprise conquests last week at Cleveland when the Indians still had their heads in the clouds from an 11-game winning streak.

Bob Feller was to try to avenge one of those defeats today. The Washington Senators sub dued the Philadelphia Athletics, 5-1, in Monday's only other major league encounter. Dutch Leonard pitched six-hit ball for his third straight success. Washington's eight timely hits included a homer by Jim Vernon.

rbi sb sh i54 i 1 410 8 5 111 SNOS 0 PAR-agraphs By ART KRENZ llf X.l.fl A FlRtA sde: CLfifToH Clayton Heafner missed holing a LNo. 4 iron tee shot by six inches for his biggest thrill in golf. Heafner was playing with Samuel Jackson Snead, who was two strokes ahead of him as they came to the 17th hole of the final round of the North and South Open of this year at Pinehurst. On this hole, a par three, Snead's tee shot landed 12 feet from the pin. The wind was blowing from right to left and a little behind, so Heafner chose a No.

4 iron. So nearly perfect "was his shot that the Linville, N. professional believed the ball went into the can. Had it dropped for an ace, the former candymaker would have been even with Snead going to the final hole. Playing a No.

4 iron, Heafner recommends a firm left side. He advises pupils to keep the hands ahead of the clubhead. The clubface must hit Ihe ball so a divot is taken. This means the club must hit the balloon on the downward stroke. Most important of all is to hit with a firm left hand and not to allow the wrists to break at impact.

There -is little wrist action and less pivot, so the backswing Is naturally shorter than normal about three-quarters. NEXT: Jim Ferrler. Leaders By The Associated Press National League Batting New York, Slaughter, St. Louis. .389.

Four teams will play In the City-YMCA Softball League's first division this season and six teams will play In the second. The teams deposited their entry fees with the league treasurer, Paul Adams, at a meeting Monday evening at the YMCA and also submitted their player rosters. In the first division are the Gun Company, 1940 winners; Allen-Wales, Morse, and Normandie Owls.

Leathers, Allen-Wales, GLF, Biggs Memorial, Rothschilds, and the Cod-dington A.C. will be represented in the second group. The league held an election and chose Otis Trainor as secretary to succeed Frank Albanese, a resreve officer, who has been ordered to report to Madison Barracks by June 1. Ball Adopted The league discussed the ball adoption and made a selection and asked dealers for bids which they will submit at the next meeting, Monday, May 19, at 7:30 p.m. A plan was also proposed to the Ithaca Umpires Association and the IUA is expected to answer at the meeting.

The committee of O. Trainor, Otis Root, Albanese, and Adams introduced the rewritten constitution which was approved. President Sam Woodside appointed a committee to plan for opening night, which will be Friday, May 23. The league will officially begin play the following week on May 26. A parade, flag-raising, and an opening pitch will mark the ceremony.

Committees Named In charge of the parade are Ed Horn, general chairman; and O. Trainor, Stanley stone, O. Root and Leo Donahue. Carl Willsey has been named committee of one to select an Ithacan to make the Initial pitch. Joseph W.

Conley was named to arrange for flag-raising ceremonies. Paul Adams will make arrangements for the exhibition game opponent on May 23. William J. Vasteno will have the task of getting the field and bleachers in shape. A meeting of the slowball twilight league was set for tonight at 8 p.m.

at the YMCA. Some teams which will be represented are the Sons of Union Veterans, Montgomery Ward, Exchange Club, Post Office, AAA, and the YMCA. Any group of fellows (over 25) may enter a team. The only requisite Is that they deposit $5, a guarantee that they will place a full team on the field for every scheduled game. PaulRunyan To Give Exhibition Paul Runyan, the mighty mite of golf, is scheduled for an 18-hole exhibition match at 4 p.

m. Thursday on Cornell University's recently opened course east of Kline road. Winner of the 1938 Professional Golfers Association championship, Runyan will be paired with Miss Doris Van Natta, Cornell women's golf instructor, against a Cornell pair unnamed as yet. He won the Harry Radix Cup for the lowest average score in the 1935 tournament season when he averaged 72.9 strokes for 52 rounds. His partner, Miss Van Natta, is champion of the Country Club of Ithaca, a title she has won several times, and champion of the Women's Finger Lakes Golf Association.

Runyan's appearance was arranged by Robert Trent Jones, the golf architect who designed the new university course and the Country Club of Ithaca's three new holes, also east of Kline road. IHS Changes Track Slate Ithaca High track team. Instead of competing with Elmira in a dual meet here this Saturday, will participate in the Southern Tier Conference meet at Parker Field, Elmira. The dual meet was cancelled when the Conference meet, an innovation to the district track program this year, was set ahead one week to allow Triple Cities school teams to compete in a meet at Utica, May 24. Besides Ithaca and Elmira the principal schools in the meet Saturday will be Johnson City, Union-Endicott, and Binghamton Central.

Coach Joe Tatascore will stage trails in practice this week at Percy Field to select the team that will make the trip. There will be two contestants for each event, and there will be the usual 12 events, including relay. In its opening contests last Saturday morning IHS lost to Binghamton Central by 57-47. Ithaca will have one more dual meet, with Geneva, here May 24. And the state sectionals will end the season on June 7.

Those games will be at Schoellkopf Field. Archibald Claims Chance at Title Washington UP) Joey Archibald, a little fighting man from Providence, R. laid claim to recognition today as the leading contender for the National Boxing Association's featherweight title held by Pete Scalzo in 40-odd states. Archibald gained a split decision over Harry Jeffra, of Baltimore, Monday night in a bout that served merely to further complicate the featherweight championship AMZE DROVE 137 ffUNS JN I940J SO you CAN FIGURE NOW A1ANV RUAIS RED BIRDS IMiLL SCOff COUNTRY SLAU6HTER lVES UP To III' AAllf- City Baseball Loop Cards Final Meeting Final organization meeting of the City Baseball League will be at 8 p.m. Thursday, at the Board of Education Building, 117 E.

Buffalo St. At that time the team managers will submit their player lists of 20 names, and will pay their entry fee of $10. They will also adopt a schedule and arrange for the playoffs. At an earlier meeting managers chose to play a round-robin schedule and to play on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays eaci week, starting Tuesday, June 3. Inasmuch as the Ithaca College team closes its schedule May 24 there is a possibility that the City League may be able to use the field a week earlier than at first expected.

Last year, when the league operated with nine teams, the Shaugh-nessy playoff system was used. This year there are but six teams in the circuit. The managers will decide the method of deciding the cham pionship, however. Managers of each of the six teams are asked to be present Thursday. The teams are Petril- lose's Red Wings, 1940 champions; Groton Coronas, Ithaca Red Sox, Brooktondale, Freeville Dryden, and Moose.

The commissioners, Clayton Cook, Joseph Tatascore, and Earl Alexander, are also asked to be present. Paul LaFrance has resigned from the commission. Edgar Bredbenner will preside. 4 Annual Schoolboy Track Meet Looms Annual fthaca Public Schools boys track meet will be held at 4 m. Thursday, May 22,.

at Percy Field. Fifth and sixth grade boys will participate. The meet will be run in four divisions, according to weights. Junior boys will be under 70 pounds, intermediates between 70 and 85 pounds, seniors between 85 and 105 pounds, and unllmiteds over 105 pounds. No competitor may enter more than two events in his weight class.

But there are only three events in each class. Thlre will be a dash and a 200-yard relay event in each division. In the junior and intermediate groups there will be standing broad jump contests while seniors and unlimited participants may compete in hop, step, and jump races. Both parents and teachers must supply written approval before a boy may enter. Composite Writine a first column each sea son Is no Joke.

It's like teeing off for the Initial drive. You roll in a blank sheet of paper, finger the typewriter keys and become mentally stiff just as one grows physically tense when addressing the first tee shot What happens? Well, tro ahead and read It. Unlike many golf columns this one does not presume to give instructions In playing technique. It has little to say about the country's front rank performers for the simple reason your correspondent seldom witnesses them In action. Par and Beyond is essentially home town stuff, being dedicated to the doings on our own fairways and the people you know.

For news of the golfing world at large, we commend any number of columns and magazines devoted exclusively to the sport. Knowing the purpose of The Journal's column, you golfers can appreciate the information you alcne can provide. This we solicit. Wo want to know about you and your game, the vicious practices of your opponents, how trees leaned out to snare that perfect drive, who birdied the 5th and whose talk caused you to miss that one-foot putt. About the most amazing thing of this young season is why more golfers haven't taken advantage of th-3 ideal playing conditions.

We as a veteran who should know. "I'm not surprised," he said. "You krow lots of men and women play by the calendar. They start Day and quit Labor Day." Per-hrps he's right. There must be some explanation.

Down at Newman, gross income Sunday was $1,209, some less than a year ago when the only Indication that spring had arrived was by the calendar. The play at the Country Club hasn't been heavy yet and the Cornell course is not overcrowded. Fear that the university's new course would seriously affect Income at the other places has about abated. The Country Club has lost a share of its customary student memberships but these are largely offset by the acquisition of 28 new family memberships. At Newman, the season ticket sale was 164 Sunday, only 15 behind that of 1940.

So it looks like a big year all around despite the war and fear of Involvement. Taking charge of these three courses are the professionals J. H. Chander, dean of the trio and master of ceremonies on Triphammer Rqad; George Hall at Corriell and Lewis Adesso, overseer of the lakeside. Pat Bucci, a contest winner during the winter, continues to aid "Chan" while George is being assisted by Freddie Reo and Miss Doris Van Natta.

Doris joined the coaching staff at the university but remains an amateur. Under the rules, she retains her simon pure rating providing her instructions are limited to classes. She can't give individual lessons. Cornell is to be congratulated on obtaining her services; the rule book commended for not taking her away from the Country Club and the defense of her women's championship. The PGA's Heddon award contest winners include Patsy.

He wrote the best answer to question number six for which he received a cash award. It was chosen from 1,013 entries on the subject; "State five qualities you look for when engaging an assistant professional." Patsy is too modest to talk about his success but if he included loyalty to the club and Chan, courtesy, thoughtfulness and diligence he mentioned but a few of his own many fine qualities. Introduction of the three new holes at the country club boosted the par up one to 72. The yardage shrunk, however, from 6,160 to 6,070. Don't worry though, that par too frequently because the new holes offer some natural hazards that sent scores soaring.

It's a neat layout across Kline road and the new holes are generally regarded as better tests of golf than the longer numbers 7, 8 and 9 which reverted to Cornell under terms of the lease. Ralph Head, recently nicknamed "The Yogi" because of an oriental squat he assumes while waiting to tee off, played midseason golf over the weekend He hit a 74 Martin Speno was two strokes off the pace At Newman, it's Dick Morrison, tournament chairman, who is showing the way to others Dick is playing in the middle 70s Harry Whitehead of Cortland is living at the Country Club these fine afternoons He's a first fiighter as the betting boys have already discovered. Wilfred Groves, Bob Price and Matt Herson are active on the hill too while City Judge Harold Simpson drifts over from his home across the street to take the measure of Charley Barker as often as duty permits. The Albert Mac-Wethy's have joined up there and the entire list of additions will be published when available The club will formally Introduce Its new members at a buffet supper May 25, after they've been initiated in a mixed doubles contest. Tournament committees at both Newman and the club are now arranging schedules for publication.

It's understood George Hall has asked for a dozen Country Club women to play the Co-eds and If George sends the same invitation over to the boys, they'll accept. They are all curious about the Cornell course which Is just across the road and presents no obstacle to travel.
