A battling band of Bi-Y Grads Saturday night forced the City bas- ketball championship series for the Kelly and McInnis, Trophy into a third and deciding game when they defeated the Navy squad 86-29 in the second encounter of what has tumeci out to be the most spectac ular and thrilling hoop series ever contested on a local court. '1‘:ailing their opponents 5-0 in the early stages of the game Grads turned on the heat for 12 minutes or the initial session Saturday evening to build up a lead that proved too much for their oppon- ents to overcome. The defending champions accounted for twenty- four of their points in the above mentioned time to take is 24-8 lead and from then on they were never very seriously threatened. Navy tcied desperately to draw up on even terms in the closing minutes of the first half and all through the windup period but the indom- itable spirit of the winners was not to be conquered. once in the second half, when Morris was ban- ished for four fouls the winners ap- peared to wilt before the pressure of their opponents as the Navy drew up to within five points of them but, although literally out on their feet they summoned sufficient strength to repulse the savage st- tscks of the challengers. It was a, battle between two game, smart teams. Grads were the bet- ter Saturday night and as such de- served their victory. But in winning if Grads had not matched the best fighting qualities that the Navy spirit stands for the lustre of their victory would not have been so bi.-ight—would have lost much of its significance. But that undying quality that is looked fort in cham- pions was not lacking. They em- erged from a last minute crisis with their colors flying high as the over- flow crowd stood spellbound with cheers and inarticulate cries muffled in their throats. Endeavoring to take the series in two straight Navy started away with a bang and before the four minute mark of the first half had been reached had built up a 5-0 lead. Grads were not penetrating the defence up to this point and Navy supporters were in high glee. Their glee however was short lived. Shortly after the five minute mark G:-ads scored their first point on a foul shot and it proved to be the spark that was needed to set them in rip tearing motion. For the next twelve minutes the winners had the packed house cheering wildly as they displayed sparkling, bril- liant combination that threatened to wash the Navy ashore. Navy called time out twice in an ‘effort to stem the tide but there was no stopping it before the winners had piled up a 24-8 lead. Navy took a grip on themselves for the balance of the period to run the count to 24-13 at the rest hell but the damage had been done. The “ta.rs" forced continually throughout an exciting second half after Grads had Mcounted for the first field goal of the period but their efforts, while courageous proved in vain. Grads hung on lfrlmiy. The lead was unchanged when Morris was banished for four personals midway through the ses- _s_ion, For about six minutes then

2l5 Entered In Boston Ma rathon

(By Bill King Associated Press Sports Writer) -

BOS1ON, April 19—1='lfteen super-distance runners will race for a trophy, a laurel wreath and Olyrnplc consideration while 200 _others strive to force pounding hearts to drive them over the long route tomorrow in the 40th re- newal of the famous Boston A. A marathon.

Provided there are no with- drawals, George V. Brown, Olym- pic marathon committeeman, will start a field of 215, including five former winners, off at noon (1 p. m. A.S.T.). The distance is 26 miles. 385 yards.

only 15 of tllese athletes, many of them veterans of this cruel struggle over the hilly course, ap- pear to have a winning chance. Only two of the five former win- ners rank in the select group-— Johnny Kelley, the Arlington flor- ist who won last year, and .Les Pawson of Pawtucket, R. I., who set the courses 2.30201 3-5 record in 1933. Clarence Demar, the seven-times winner, Jimmy Hen- igan, who led the plodding pack in 1931. and the 1917 winner, Bill Kennedy, East Portchester, Conn., bricklayer, have passed their peaks.

’."ic Saint John Y. M. C. A. has three entries. They are John Paul, swarthy Indian from Springhill.‘ N. 8.. Charley McCormick and W. Alliston.

Pat Dengis, the A. A. U. champ- ion from Baltimore, is rated al- most even with Kelley, chiefly be- cause he was second by about two minutes last season. In the last tww races, the previous runners lipi raced to victory in their next starts, Kelley a year ago and Dave

Komonen. the Sudbury, Ont], Finn. in 1934. Rated up close to Kelley and

Dengis are Pawson. Ellizon “Tar- zan" Brown, the Narragansett In- dian from Providence, Billy Mc- Mahon, the Worcester veteran, Mel Porter. Max Steiner and Fred Ward of New York. Gordon Nor- man, Andrew Brunelle and Cecil Hill of Beverly, Joe Louffc of Pswtu:ket, R.

A two-bngger by Mule Haas in the seventh inning was the first ertra-base hit off Rowe this sea- son.

With Bill Dickey leading the at- tack with a homer, a double and two walks, the Yanks ended their first home stand with a 9-1 vic- tory over Washington Senators.

A crowd of 26,485 saw Monte Pearson. former Cleveland pitcher, coast to an easy victory. The Yankees piled up four runs in the first two innings off Whilehlll and in the fifth they collected th e lnore when Dickey hit his he or with Gehrig and Lnzzerl on base.

Binns is working out daily and appears faster and better than ever. In addition to sharpening up exercises with the big bag and punching bag he is working out with big, heavy sparring mates and is proving plenty obnoxious to the big boys.

Leslie is also hard at work and is rapidly nearing the peak of con- dition. Reports from his home state that the rugged Souris battler is displaying worlds of punching power and his backers are freely predicting a knockout victory for their favorite.
