\tirrin’ the DOPE - By VEDDER GARD

mF Pitcher Koob of Louisvllle can keep out of wind storms he may win several games this season for the Colonels. The veteran doesn't look as though he would have strength enough to tops the ball up to the plate, but he is of the wiry type of lasting quality. He needs an anchor in a gentle breeze to keep from blowing away, but he still is in there fooling Father Time and the opposing batters. Koob curbed the Brewers, Friday. Milwaukee got eleven hits, but not at the right time. * • • mHE annual jokes are being periH'trated at Minneapolis which are called baseball games. Ten home runs by Wilier sluggers were made in the four Columbus contests. The orgy reached its height Friday when five sailed over the short fences. A long fly is a cireuit clout in .Millertown and Manager Kelley has a team which is built around that theory. Pat Duncan luis not missed a day since the season started. A homer a day is Pat's motte • * • Robertson of St. Louis knew his former White Sox team-mates .very well, hut he was nbt ackiuainted with a young' rookie named Gulley. On Friday the Brown liurler grooved one for Mr. Gulley, who tripled in the first inning with the bases loaded. Mr. Robertson went to the bench. The White Sox won, 5 to 1. * • • Rucky Harris of Washington believes in being first in everything. He was the first manager to be ejected from a major league game. lmph*e Nallin gave Bucky the gate in the last inning of the Philadclphia/W a.slitngton fray on Friday. * * * Here are some more wise cracks by Joe Williams of NEA Service: These spring football seasons are not entirely lacking in conv pensation .... For instance nobody picks an All-America spring practice football eleven. ft doesn't, necessarily follow that all pole vaulters arc queer yet there must he something significant about the fact that Charlie Hoff used to take long walks on the ire in his bare feet. The aviators at Dayton have formed a baseball nine and it goes without saying the boys ought to get away to a flying start. 1 Mothers teach their darlings not o run around and maybe they ire right, but look at all the fame running around has brought Charlie Paddock. Mr. Tunney is known as tire “Rose of Washington Square,” and Mr. Dempsey, with his artistic connections, “The cauliflower of Hollywood.” The tigers started the season without Ty Cobb in the line-up. ... They didn’t look any stranger than one of the Smith brothers with a shave. The flowers that bloom in the spring have nothing at all on the April baseball phenoms, who are bloomers by May. ■ Bohh.v Jones finished second in a race at Bowia the other day. We don’t know who finished first, but it must have been Hagen. In insisting that Dempsey fight Harry Wills those New York gentlemen. contrary to the popular supposition, seem to prefer brunets. General Butler threatens to revise the old slogan to read, “Join the Marines and See How the World Mixes Cocktails.”

With the Majors

The weather man having relented, some excellent big league baseball was played Friday, six of the eight games in major league cities being won by the margin of a single run. Every game in the National League was decoded by one run The. St Louis Cardinals went into a tie for first place with the Phillies by again stopping the Pittsburgh Pirates, who are playing indifferent ball for world's champions. The Chicago White Sox. harking back to the days wt en Fielder Jones' team was known a 4 the "lrltless wonders." proceeded to go out and get five runs for Eddie Collins on a total of five hit*, and as a result occupy an undivided berth at the top of the American League, with three games won and none lost. They defeated the Brown* 5-to-l. Faber held St. Louis runless until the ninth. Johnson and Sothoron pltchwl good ball for the Cardinals holding the world s champions to four lilts, while Hornsby s men found their batting eyes in the last of the ninth and came from behind to win. a to a. The New York (Hants played indifferent baseball behind .lack Scott, but Brooklyn was worse, and McOraw a men won an unInterestlug game. It to 2. Burleigh Grimes went the route for the Dodgers, but was unsteady. Lucas of the Reds and Grover Cleveland Alexander of the Cults engaged In a pitching duel, which went ogatnst the veteran by a B-to-l score, although Jack Hendricks' charges gathered but four safeties. Miller Huggins finally found In Herb Perinock n pitcher who could survive the weather and the wicked hitting of the surprising Red Sox. and the Yankees won a close game. 3 to 2. The Washington Senators put another crimp In the aspirations of Connie Mack's young white elephants although the wily 'manager of Hie Athletics sent fifteen ball lalnvcrs. Including five pitchers.

ASSOCIATION RACE STARTS OUT TRUE TO PRE-SEASON DOPE

INVADERS SAIL FOR ENGLAND Miss Collett and Miss Browne Leave for Golf and Tennis Tourneys. By Henry L. Farrell United, Pros titatt CorresDondcnt NEW YORK, April 17.—Two of America’s greatest women athletes picked up the banner and sailed for England early today as the advance party of the big American force which will invade Europe this summer. Miss Glenna Collett, national golf champion and Miss Mary K. Browne, captain of the American tennis team sailed shortly after midnight\so that Miss Collett may finish training for the British woman’s golf championship, starting May 10, in Wales. Alias Browne, who is as great a golfer as she is a tennis artist, will not play in the golf championship, but will go to Wales with Miss Collett and play in one preliminary tournament. “Miss Joyce Wethered is the greatest woman golfer in the world, and if I only make a respectable showing—granting that T get far enough through the tournament to meet her—l will feel satisfied,” Miss Collett said. Miss Browne, who has played several times the past season with the young champion, said she felt sure that Miss Collett has a splendid chance to win the British title.

'R)RASSIE njIRDIES 1 T By DICK MILLER

AROUNI) LOCAL CO IKS EH WITH THE MAN WHO GOLFS FOR SPORT Trees, ravines. bridges. hills, water and level stretches of ground, make’ Coffin golf course a wonder* full playground. * Professional George Stark played the first nine jDLjie in par for you Friday and is ready to start the second nine. He / escaped one of hie 'C-5 “hoodoo" holes, -i number 9. which tie once played in jdi V 6, when a par 3 |gfp would have made jjgjgF his score 66, or 6 under par. Number 10 is another George Stark of his down fall holes. Stark plays the second nine for you: He made a straight drive over the ravine and was ready for a full b rafts ie on the second shot. Had he topped the drive it would have been in the ravine. A slice means out of bounds and a hook, into the trees. The third Is a pitch onto the open green. Par is 5, with two putts allowed. The distance 405 yards. On No. 11 the drive, if other than straight, is out of bounds, into a trap. The second shot has the same hazards. Pitch the third onto the green and take two putts for par 5. Distance, 526 yards. The same conditions exist on hole 12, which should be played with a drive, pitch onto underladen green and two putts for par 4. Distance, 360 yards. Hole 13 is regarded as the tough est on the course. It in 200 yards from the tee, and has anew green. Hooks or slices mean trees and out of bounds. If you overshoot you are in the trees again. It is a full iron shot from the tee with spoon or midiron club. Two putts for par 3. Then you gaze at the hole regarded by Chick Evans as his "AllAmerican” hole. It is a dog leg fairway, wide and bending. On the right of the fairway are cedar trees. One ravine is in front of the tee and another ravine in front of the green. Straight measurement from the green to tee is 285 yards, and around the fairway is 318 yards. * * * To be safe drive to the center of the fairway and pitch onto the green around the bend on shot No, 2. Most golfers try to drive the straight cut. Par for the hole is 4; while the short cut onto the green means a birdie. 3. Hole 15 is another difficult one, 205 yards long. Sand traps and out of bounds, take bad drives. An overshot goes in the ravine back of the green. Perfect golf is a pitch to the green and two putts for par 3. The three sportiest holes of the course are 13, 14 and 15. * * * Drive long .and straight on Hole 16. Hooks and slices mean roughs and bunkers. On the second shot the green is reached with a pitch. The green is well trapped. The distance is 380 yards. Par four. The longest hole is No. 17. From tee to green is 550 yards. Rough on the left and right take bad first drive and second brassie shots. The third is a pitch onto a well trapped green. Par is five. Beauty and sportiness surrounds the eighteenth hole, if the drive is hooked, it is in the trees. A slice is out of bounds. The second#shot is a pitch. Tlie green is open so that two putts, as George takes, gives par four. The total yardage covered on the second nine was 3,266, and par thirty-six. 'Hie total yardage of the course is 6,264 yards. Par, total, seventy-two. Anyone interested in golf can hardly fee] they have gained any benefits from the city courses if they fail to play Coffin. It is a hard course, but you may feel proud of a good score. Try it out and see if it is not more beautiful than words can describe. Plans were completed this morning at a meeting in Wallace O.

Indianapolis, Minneapolis and Louisville Appear Strongest Clubs in A. A.—Blues Not Weak. The American Association race has started out true to preseason dope with Indianapolis, Minneapolis and Louisville setting the pace. That trio of clubs appears to be the class of the loop, and each made a clean sweep of the opening series.

Minneapolis won four games fr >m Columbus, a team which ee ns doomed to finish far down, if n> at the very bottom. Tlif India ns and Colonels had a posti>oned game each and won three games from Kansas City and Milwaukee, respectively. The Tribe probably deserves more .credit than tlie other two leaders liecause the K. C. Blues appear to be a stronger outfit than the Brewers nr Senators. The KawtOwn club is likely to cause plenty of trouble before the season is over. ' The Millers are a powerful erew and will be hard to beat at home in their band box boil park. McAuley, the new shortstop from the Paxiflc coast, played errorless ball through the <i|iening series. On early form, St. Paul, Milwaukee and Columbus seem to be the weakest cltiiis. The Saints and Brewers are experimenting with new players who have not started very impressively. They may snap out of it later. Toledo has some veterans who slugged the ball against St. Paul to win two out of three. The Hens may not lie so bad as some thought. They need pitchers, however. Indians Win Indianapolis won the third game at Kansas City on Friday. 8 to 7, but the Blues gave the Tribesmen a scare in the ninth by scoring four runs. The tying run was on second when Philbin grounded to Sicking for the final out. Niles was not very effective, but got by except In the first and ninth innings, when K. C. scored all its run.s Weaver went to the rescue

BREWERS NEXT ON PROGRAM Tribe at Milwaukee for FourGame Series —Three Straight From K. C. By Eddie Ash Time* Sports Editor MILWAUKEE, W!s„ April 17. Ownie Bush's Indians, flushed by three straight victories in the opening series at Kansan Cfity. were in Milwaukee today to start a round of games with the 1926-make of Home Brews. Battles will be staged here this afternoon, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Louisville moved into Kansas City as the Ilooslers checked out.. Jack Lelivelt's Brewers got plastered three in a row by the Colonels and are figuring on getting started at the expense of Indianapolis. Owner Borchert is said to be on the verge of baseball prostration and is crying for the gore of the Bushmen. Manager Bush was undecided about his pitching selection for this afternoon, but the choice was between Ray and Burwell, with Florence on the receiving end. If Burwell felt right before the game he was to receive the assignment. The Indians were given a bad scare in Kansas City Friday in the Blues' final time at hat. The Hoosiers won the game, 8 to 7, barely escaping with the honors. Ned Niles exploded in the ninth inning and tiie Blues scored four runs. A man was on second when Weaver relieved Niles and retired the side. Two men were out when Weaver went in. Niles pitched good hall until tlie final session, hut weakened under the strain. Tt appeared as though Manager Bush left the siender pitcher in too long. Niles was tlie victim of some bad breaks in the first inning and the Blues scored three runs. Then he went jntil the ninth before cracking again. He was a surprise at bat by getting two hits and a walk in four times up. He drove in two runs. The big inning for Tndianapolis was the fourth, when five runs were scored. Messenger was knocked out of the box and Feigert relieved him. Later, the Blues removed Feigert for a pinch hitteer and Hargrove finished.
