His moundwork enabled the Tigers to whitewash the Sox. 11 to 0. He might have scored a no-hit game were it not for Hal Rhyne’s two scratch singles in the ■ third and sixth. F'our Boston hurlent opposed him. Lefty Grove held the Chicago White Sox to six hits, while the Philadelphia Athletics pounded out a 9-to-O victory. Jimmy Dykes drove in four Philadelphia runs with a double and a homer. Jimmy Foxx connected for a pair of sing- 1 tes. In the National league Ray Benge limited Cincinnati to five hits while the Phillies blanked the Reds. 4 to 0. This victory advanced Philadelphia to third place, dropping Cincinnati to fourth. Lonnie Warneke, on the Chicago Cubs’ mound, yielded only five hits. to the New York Giants, who were beaten. 9 to 2. The Cubs scored two runs in the second and drove* Gibson from the mound in. the WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE—WITHOUT CALOMEL And You'll Jump Out of Bed in the Morning Rarin’ to Go It yoa feel »our and sunk and the world looks punk, don't swallow a lot of salt A, mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine.

IwHE ranks of the “comebackers” continues to swell. - Like the overflow of the great Kensico Dam they continue to come, these seekers of past glories and there isn’t a sport in the, book that isn’t represented. Even in the field of horse-racing we find a “comebacker.” Equipoise. brilliant C. V. Whitney four-year-old, is back in action after a year in retirement. And in his first appearance at Havre De Grace, he proved to twentythousand racing enthusiasts that he had lost none of his speed and endurance. The great thoroughbred captured the SIO,OOO Harford Handicap in easy fashion. It was a great comeback after a retirement forced by illness on the eve of the Kentucky Derby of last year. Percy Williams, of Canada, Olympic sprint champion, is in training for the coming Olympics at Ix>s Angeles. Williams, double winner at Amsterdam in 1928, has done little competitive racing since
W AB C I Spades and Spading" Fork Technique
Some veteran gardner- will not , consider tlie garden as properly dug unless it is dug with a spade. Otheis I will never think of using any tool 1 but a spading fork. The siade is the , lietter tool for clean digging where i the gardener wishes to follow , straight lines. It also will turn the soil more completely and thoroughly and if the trench and fill method is used the spade is indispensable because the soil will remain in the spade to he tossed into the waiting trench. IA. p rtion of it is bound to fall through the tines of the so k Heavy soil is more easily turn-] ed with a spade so there is an argument on the better tool right there. A spade in the long run will be found the m:re efficient tool for digging heavy soil. The tines of ithef ork due to the prying to lift ' heavy soil, are verv likely to be bent out of alignment in working heavy and clayey soils. For lighter soil, the spading fork is much the easier tool to nse and it is also a faster method .ind less laborious. A gardener needs both a spade and a spading fork. When large holes are to be dug to set out bu-hes or.trees, a spade must be used t-s do a good quick job of it. ■ Keep the spade sharp and clean. I Soil caked and rusted on the blide of the spade makes digging doubly i ha d. A shovel, either long or short ■ handled, will prove useful to throw i the soil out of trenches after they ' have been dug with a spade or fork

Canadian colors to victory. 1 In golf we have the veteran Jerry Travers, American Open :! Champion of seventeen years ago, I embarking on the comeback trail. ' The great amateur of two decades 1 back has announced his intention I: of entering the field as a business-1 man golfer. Well in the middle | , years of life Travers finds himself . at the stage where it is necessary | I ' to augment his earnings at the ■ | game he loves. He plans to tackle II the exhibition phase of the game ; i and hopes to link up with a popu- ■ lar professional of the present i day. And his friends, who are : legion, hope that Jerry makes a go of it. , , The years have not dulled 1 Travers’ amazing skill at putting 5 1 and anproach.

There is no garden so good that it does.-n’t need and won’t greatly : benefit by spading. From a quarter ! Ito a half of a garden should be I j spaded over each year thoroughly. ' In spading a ga den, blade of the | I - pade should be driven into the , i soil as nearly vertical as possible. I The closer to vertical the blade gees into the soil, the deeper it can . penetrate and better the job of ■ digging. It is customary to send the or fork into the ground I at a slant. The result is that while . r | it may ipok like a good job of digg- ' ing when it is done, the soil has not , t ! been turned tor more than six or
fifty or sixty yards off the green , as often as Travers His skill in layifig them dead and holing long, tricky putts, was . and still is uncanny.
