Led by Sonny Bragg, the Jackets will boast a diver who won the GIAA championship in Atlanta last month. Showing the form which has marked his diving success in Southern diving circles for the past three years, the husky ten foot artist hopes to run away with the diving honors in this last meet. Supporting the popular diver will be Hartnoil, a veteran, whose consistency in the point col umn is an added help to the club. John McKenna, breast stroke star, who placed with Bragg in the GIAA meet, will handle the reins for the breast stroke events. In tip top shape, the dour star is hoping for a record smashing attempt to wind up his scholastic work in Savanna. Also to swim in McKenna's events will be I little Douglas Richards, who can be ' counted on to break into the point ! winning tabulations. Elmo Weeks, whose inexperience has cost him a number of races this past season will be in the pool trying to get going in the back stroke event. Hoping to overcome the jinx which has so consistently dogged his trail the elongated swimmer has been training steadily for the past two weeks. Starting at 3:30 the meet promises to be concluded at 5:30 with the diving events being the last on the program. “OLD BIFFER” DEAD . LAREDO.

Workman used to be known as one of the greatest riders of two-year-olds on the turf. Lately he has had to battle increasing weight which kept him out of the saddle in many impor tant races. Seven years ago Workman won one of the richest races ever run In the world, the Belmont Futurity. He brought in Whichone for a purse of $105,730. Only the Santa Anita handicap has exceeded that amount In first prize money. Not many jockeys have won the Futurity twice, but two years after winning with Whichone, Workman came first unde! the ire with Top Flight. The ride that Workman gave the Whitney colt in that race is re garded as one of the jockey master pieces of modern times.

CENTRAL PRESS ASSOCIATION— BEHOLD THE BUSKERS! By WALTER JOHNS (Central Press.) EARL CALDWELL- ST. LOUIS BROWNS A PITCHER WITH plenty of con- j trol, effectiveness and boasting of a good minor league record—that's Earl W. Caldwell, right-handed rokoie sligner with the St. Louis Browns. Manager Rogers Hornsby has been badly in need of pitchers. That’s why Earl is being given his third chanc: in the majors—he was up before with the Brownies and once with the Phillies. To date, Earl has pitched in several games but hasn’t shown to i advantage. However, Hornsby thinks he will improve to become one of the Browns’ better pitchers. Not a Chicken Earl is a Texan, and not a young- j ster. He was bom in Sparks, Tex., in 1905. A big fellow, over six feet, he first began to fool batters when he hurled for Holland High school in the Lone Star state. Next he appeared at ' Thorp Spring college, getting his first professional contract in 1926 witr Waco. From Waco he went on to Albany, Ga.. and then to the Phillies in 1928. I Back to Waco and in the Brownie I camp in 1930. No go there, so he again went to Waco. The next stop was milwaukee. and then San Antonio of the Texas league. Pitching for Santone in 1934 and '35. he was pick ed up by the Browns at the fag end of last summer. With the Browns at the end of 1935 Earl pitched three wins and two losses, one of his wins being a three hit game against the champion CRUSADERS REIGN MEET FAVORITES 17 TEAMS ARE ENTERED IN TRACK EVENTS PROVI DENCE TODAY PROVIDENCE, R. 1., May 22 (TP)—A hammer and tongs battle is expected today when 17 teams take the field in the annual New England intercollegiate track and field meet at Brown University. The most hopeful rivals for the track meet honors are Rhode Island State and Holy Cross. The Purple Crusaders are given the best of it in predictions regarding the springs and dashes. The Rhode Islanders hope to take top honors with field events. Brown is regarded as a dark horse that may upset the dope by cleaning up on her home ground.
