AKOUNI) LOCAL COURSES WITH THE MAN WHO GOLFS FOR SPORT

The other day we told you that the members of the Pleasant Run Golf Club are pleased with the links this season. Some hard work on the part of Wally Nelson, club professional, and cooperation by the park department made it possible. New greens, on holes 2,4, 5, 11 and 18, in addition to the rearrangement of hole 4 making the fairway across the creek twice instead of once, are accomplishments. Fairway No. 2 has been lengthened forty yards. Wally played the course for us today and we are ready to tell you it takes some real playing to do it in par. It is the type of course that beginners adapt themselves to, and one that old heads at the game get a world of sport out of playing.

Tou find the starting tee irt front of the clubhouse. Wally said the first shot is a drive that requires some skill. If you hook to the left trees will make the green blind to you. Don’t slioot too far to the right or your ball will be in the rocks and ditch. Use the mashie and make a stiff shot onto the green. Two putts for par 4. The second tee is on the upper bank of the creek, toward the clubhouse. Hook to the right and you are in the trees. A slice to the right and you are in the same kind of trouble. Straight down the fairway, and you can make the second shot a mashie, not as full as on the first hole, or you can use an iron and run the ball onto the green. Too strong and you will overshoot and be in the ditch. Two putts for par 4. Fairway and green No. 3 are one of the prettiest bits of golf scenery in the city. Play a drive that will carry 250 yards down the course. A full spoon or brassies second shot will carry onto the green with chances for a birdie. If the second shot is short pitch to the peg on the third. Trouble is in store if you overshoot jthe green into the ditch. Par is 5. The fourth tee Is built up about fifteen feet higher than the fairway. Your drive must carry 165 yards to clear both creeks. Just before the creek reaches the fourth fairway it parts and forms a fork. Women play from the tee to the space between the two forks, safe. The second shot is up through the valley onto the green. Two putts make par 4. You now get a bit of relaxation after encountering some nerveracking conditions on the first four holes. No. 5 requires a pitch shot from the tee located on tne bluff onto the g-reen. Two putts for par 3. This is anew hole. No. 6 takes a hard drive. The distance made on the drive regulates the selection of the club for the second shot. It may be an iron or a mashie. If you slice to the right on the second shot, you are out of bounds. Tho third shot is a pitch onto the green that is built up and well trapped all around. Par is 6. Get your thinking cap on for No. V. Golfers are fooled by the knoll in front of the green and shoot short. The shot is a pitch or a run shot from the tee. Two putts makes par 3. Don’t slice to the left on hole 8, or you will be out of bounds. A straight drive, with a semi-full mashie shot onto tho green and two putts for par 4. t On the ninth hole, you shoot toward the clubhouse. If your drive is to the left or right, trees will hide the green on the second shot. From the middle of the fairway the second is a mashie to the green on the knoll. Two putts for par four. This makes 36 for the first nine. You will decide you are playing a great game of golf. We will have Wally play the second nine for you tomorrow.

OPENING DAY NOTES Elmer Yoter. Tribe third sacker, did everythinff according to Hoyle of baseball. He got three hits in five efforts, stole a base and was amazing in the held. The little iellow produced heavily on opening day. Eddie Sicking performed in superb manner. Kiggs Stephenson made a great catch out near the scoreboard after a long run. Walter Holke spread his legß in various directions around first base and snared everything thrown his way. Manager Bush galloped here and galloped there, and never sat down one moment during the battle. For the Blues, llranom was an out standing figure and also Moore, who made a sensational running catch on Florence's drive in the ninth. The fans kept up u continuous roar, anil the shouting that occurred In the sixth inning was deafening. It was a tremendous opening even if the home club did lose. Not a spectator left until the finish. Spencer Abbott, new K. C. manager, charged frantically at Umpires McGrew and Powell on close decisions, but he was tame enough to escape banishment. He evidently ordered Ins pitchers to "dust off" the Indian batters because three Hoosicr pastimers were struck by pitched balls. Schaaok. who relieved Zinn on the mound for the Blues in the fourth, got by without much damage, but tho Indians pressed him hard. He had Old Lady Luck with him. Tile Schreiher case w as peculiar, because it produced a run. Klugman was permitted to run for Schreiber and scored. He was granted the privilege of returning to the game later by agreement. Schreiber was made dizzy lor the remainder of the afternoon, but there was not a thing wrong with him Tuesday night. The blow was glancing and physicians said it was merely a minor shock. No danger.

About forty fans came down from Indianapolis to view the opener, and they spent a large day. The Indianapolis Elks, li-udcd by Tliomis Hiielits. exalted ruler, were very prominent. Anil so were Mayor John Duvall and Police I'lilcf Johnson. timing oilier howling Iloosiers were Kill Barrett. Charles Grossart and Dayle Stout. Mayor Beach of K. pitched the first hall to Major Duvall of Indianapolis, and threw a good strike, hut Duvall muffed it. It was a grand day. anyway, for Indianapolis. Weather was splendid for the season’s opener. Indianapolis rooters were treated royally. Hill Barrett of the Indianmolis Street Railway used his influence and obtained K C. street railway bus service free for Indian rooters. Owner Smith of tho Indians was happy over tho .loss victory. Manager Bush smiled and overlooked the few mistakes by his players. "I am satisfied perfectly." said Bush. to win the opener, and 1 believe f have a better ball club than Kansas City. , "All the Indians were keyed to a high pitch, despite lack of practice. They wanted to win for tlie fans hack home and the loyal rooters who canto all the way to K. C. I am proud of my team. Bill Burwell allowed onlv seven hits and stayed the nine innings. His strategy in the ninth was big league stuff.” Tho schedule settled down to tho old routine today, but nevertheless the Kansas City boys wire wild to <ycn up for Tueeilay's defeat. Carmen Hill was slated to pitch for tli© Indians today. Another wire was received from Hot Springs Tuesday night concerning the condition of Pitcher Fred Sehemanske. He was reported improved. The Tndisnapo’is Elks presented Manager Bush with a basket of roses previous to tiie game. Tuesday and Harry Pahud of the Pahud Floral Company. Indianapolis, decorated each Hoosier booster with a carnation. Former Hoosier* who have been away from Indiana ninnj years mixed around the Coates House.

The hand at the gam- played "tin (he Banks of the Wabash.” and the Indianapolis boosters, before starting home Tuesday night, gathered and did their best to sing the old Hoosier song. And it was a fairly good effort, John George, member of the board of safety of Indianapolis, proved a yio-mean leader. The Indians won. It was a grand party. It was a great day and a boost for Indianapolis in thiß section of Uncle Sam's domain. SUBSTITUTE FOR STONE? Bv T'nited firm NEW YORK, April 14.—Jack Sharkey or Tommy I.oughran probably will be substituted for Ad Stone in a bout against Jack Delaney, scheduled for May 26 in the Brooklyn baseball park. Stone was knocked out Monday night in Philadelphia by Tony Marullo, New Orleans.

Average price of twenty rail stocks for Wednesday was 105.88. up .77. Bv United Press NEW YORK, April 14.—Tuesday s sharp recovery induced further short covering in early dealings and the market as a whole displayed a fairly strong tone. However, gains in pivotal issues were mostly of fractional variety. National Biscuit experienced a bad break, dropping four points to 81 on disappointment over dividend action at meetings after Tuesday’s close. Many traders had expected substantial stock distribution and the directors simply established a regular $4 annual cash basis. Further recessions in the late morning failed to bring out important liquidation in the main body of stocks and trading turned extremely dull around noon. However, several special issues continued under pressure and were forced down substantially from the previous close. National Dairy Products broke 4% to 53 Vg. Cuba Cane preferred was also weak, selling oft a point to 40 \ r 2.

GRAIN VALUES ARE IRREGULAR May Wheat Up—Other Deliveries Are Down. Bu I'nlted Press CHICAGO, April 14. —Grain prices opened irregular on tho Board of Trade today. Wheat opened higher in both May deliveries, hut slightly lower in the other two futures. The irregular opening in this grain was for the most part unexpected. Inasmuch as Liverpool was higher today and the tone of the local market unusually strong yesterday, traders here had looked for a higher opening all along the line. However, the general attitude among operators is more cheerful, and the belief is prevalent that the grain is out of the rut. Corn opened fractionally higher in the July and September deliveries, but unchanged in the May. A statement issued today by Sears-Roebuck Company that one-fourth of the corn crop is unfit for seeding is looked upon as a boost for higher prices. Oats showed that it has strength of its own by opening fractionally higher all along the line. Provisions opened lower.

The indictment on which he was arrested grew out of an alleged deal with M. E. Eastman, farmer, of near North Vernon. Saylor also is charged with violating the securities act, because he is not a registered dealer.

In the Sugar Market By Thomson St McKinnon NEW YORK, April la.—The appeal of the Cuban president for economic relief "by lightening the tariff on sugar." received a rebuff in the United States Senate Tuesday. The Administration wants to help Cuba out of her difficulties, but is said to favor banking aid rather than a lo ter tariff. The Cuban cabinet meets today. Perhaps it will adopt some measure of relief. I believe relief in some form ■will oome eventually, anil that prices will

SUN’S RELATION TO WEATHER IS BEING SOLVED Astronomers Find Chief Fluctuation Lies in Violet Rays. By David Dietz, \E.t Service Writer JIT, WILSON, Cal., April 14. A discovery just made at the Mt. Wilson observatory here may prove to be one of the most important facts so far brought to light in helping scientists solve the puzzle of tho connection between the sun and the weather. It had been previously pointed out through tho work of Dr. C. G. Abbot that the amount of energy sent out by the sun varied from day to day. And it has been assumed that the ultimate cause of fluctuations in the weather must lie in these fluctuations. Tho problem, however, is to dis cover just what the connection is and how it works. Now, Dr. Edison Pettit of the Mt Wilson observatory here has made an important advance in the attack on this problem by showing that the chief fluctuation in the energy radiated by tho sun lies in the invisible but highly active ultra-violet rays. Two observing stations, one In California and one in Chile, operated by the Smithsonian Institution under the general direction of Dr. Abbot, measure tho total amount of energy radiated by tho sun, heat or infra-red rays, light rays and ultra-violet rays. Dr. Abbot is now in Asia to find a site for a third station to do similar work. Dr. Pettit arranged his apparatus, however, so that it would measure only certain definite parts of the sun’s energy. He covered a telescope lens with a thin gold film. Asa result only the green light of the sun came through it. Then he focused this light on a thermocouple, a device for measuring energy, and connected that to a recording instrument. Next he arranged a quartz lens covered with a thin silver film. This has the property of allowing only the ultra-violet light to get thi-ough. This was measured and recorded in the same way.

“The records show that the green light from the sun is practically constant from day to day," Dr. Pettit told me. “On tho other hand, they show violent fluctuations in the ultra-violet light- " From June, 1924, to November, 1925, the amount of ultra-violet light given off by the sun increased 83 per cent- Then from November to December, it fell off 20 per cent. It has remained in tho neighborhood of the December figure since. But there are constant daily fluctuations in the amount of ultra violet light. "Now Dr. Abbot has found that the total amount of energy given off by the sun varies from day to day. It must be therefore, that this variation is due to the fluctuations in the ultra-violet light.” Tliis discovery of Dr. Pettit’s is an important clew for meteorologists who hope to learn the connection between the sun and the weather. It means, of course, that it is highly important that work be done to find out just what effect the ultra-violet radiation of the sun has on the earth and its atmosphere. Dr. Pettit’s work is part of a general program for studying the sun at Mt. Wilson. This program is the most extensive in the world. The Mt. Wilson astronomers feel that before the connection between the sun and the weather can be worMed out, we must know about the sun Itself. Consequently, they are centering their attention on the sun. Dr. George E. Hale, honorary <ll* rector of the observatory: Dr. Charles E. St. John, president of the solar section of the International Astrononomical Union, and other members of the staff, are devoting their chief energies to this task. There are many problems, to be solved yet. For example, tho corona, or silvery halo about the sun which becomes visible at the timo of a total eclipse, is still a mystery to astronomers. Connections between the shape of the corona and the number of spots on the sun have been noted, but the exact cause and nature of the corona is still unknown.
