Brassie IRDIES

[■;_,( HE first nine holes at Me- | ridian Hills golf course were I* * outlined in Brassie Birdies some time ago. Today the last nine will be taken up with description of holes and shots, supplied by Wallie Sparks, club professional, who played the course recently for that purpose, along with Ben Stevenson and Bill Rockwood. Meridian Hills is comparatively new, being only two years old, but in spite of that fact, the fairways and greens are in excellent shape. The course appears to have aan excellent future. Starting on hole No. 10, after a long drive, Sparks advised the* use of a mashie Iron for a placed shot along the i slope to the green. On the left are trees and rough with bunkers on the left. It takes a, well played shot to get to the green in two. You are now facing another “of those greens that requires play of high order to get down in two. They are rolling and smooth, but hard to “dope.” Hole ?> T °- 11 Hole No. 11 is reached after you play the ball over the knolls and around a dog leg to the well trapped green. This is one' of Meridian Hill’s fine golf holes. ‘ No. 12 is easier, and your tee shot is from a hill overlooking a creek to a green that is difficult to reach, because a rolling ball might stop anywhere. A true mashie shot between the trees, is the best bet and if you play the rolling green right you are down in two; maybe, one. It takes golf study to play No. 13. If the drive is long and you are good with a mashie the hole may be played comparatively easy, but if the drive is short, care must be taken to keep the second shot short or you will be in the lake, a beautiful artificial lake that keeps the greens supplied with water. After the second shot you have trees to contend with on both sides of the fairway. The pitch shot to the green must be right or you are in trouble. At Caddy House You are again near the, caddy house. After a short walk across the road you are at tee No. 14. It is another dog leg fairway, with a bunker to catch a drive too hard and to the right. The green is hard to reach; just natural hazards, and hard to judge when once there. The green is rolling. No. 15 is a long par five hole. It is another dog leg, parallel to No. 14. No difficulty is encountered jvhen the average golfer gets the ball where he wants it. However, there are a few traps and bunkers to catch the wild shots. This green is one of the finest on the second nine, and it is a pleasure to study a shot on that surface. No. 16 is a short mashie shot back over a ravine, that probably some day will be made into a real golf hole with the lake lengthened to allow the water to form additional hazard. It is a beauty pitch shot and Bill Rockwood sank a putt that made the others sit up and take notice. The tee shot is between the trees to a nice green that has slopes to make a putt interesting. Trapped Green A natural trapped green torms the chief difficulty on hole No. 17, and after you reach the green you will remark about the fine fairway and condition of the green. Bill socked one on this green that ran around the hill onto the green and dropped, just to prove his shot on No. 16 was no fake. The last fairway is directed back at the caddy house door and the dog leg fairway is dotted with chocolate drop mounds and traps. The green lies between-the trees and is on a slope, making is possible for anyone’s score card to be ruined. Meridian Hills is laid out with three sets of tees, making the course three different yardageHengths. It is built in natural golf country and has natural habards galore. It is just another beautiful course added to the list of Indianapolis golf playgrounds and the membership growth vindicates the statement that Meridian Hills Las a golf future. Elmer Smith/of Portland is the leading Coast League home run hitter. Statz leads in triples.

AROUND THE A. A. ■ By Eddie Ash

The Indians got six doubles in the first fracas at St. Paul s Thursday, Munson poling two. Temporary bleachers erected for the YankeeSaint game Wednesday were left standing in left field and the Tribesmen aimed their drives that way. ■Rain prevented the Wednesday exhibition, but the field seats were not taken down. And the Saints got outsmarted. Bill Burwell kept the ball away from St. Paul batters and thfey were unable to profit ,by the short left field. Hoffman, Saint catcher, got a home run in the eighth inning of the first struggle. Wyatt clouted a circuit drive for the Indians in the second conflict and Roettger hit one for the home team. Walter Holke got two safeties in three efforts in the opening battle and “three out of three” in the wind-up. Acting Manager Sicking played brilliant ball in the field. He handled eleven chances behind Burwell and twelve behind Hill. He accepted twenty-three chances without hobbling. Munson played left field for the Tribe in the first tilt and Rehg was out there in the second, because St. Paul started Schupp, a southpaw hurler. Munson bats left-handed. Dawson and Cullop pitched effectively f||>r Louisville in the twin bill at Minneapolis on Thursday. Cullop allowed the Millers only three hits.' Catcher Hank Gowdy, who was “fired” out of the Columbus managerial berth recently, has been awarded to Minneapolis. When Columbus asked waivers on Hank, Minneapolis and Toledo claimed him, and Toledo claimed him, and the Millers won on the draw, according to President Hickey of the A. A. Columbus is grabbing up semipros and collegians to use as reserve players in order to cut down the club pay roll. Coggin, anew twlrler, was used as relief for Orwoll Thursday and pitched great ball for the Brewers. Shulte is a daily slugger for the league-leading Brewers and he looks like a sure sale to the majors later. He got a single, double and triple against Toledo, Thursday. He is a “turn” hitter and good both ways. Rosie Ryan, recently of the majors, was knocked off the “Hen mound by the Brewers, Thursday. Orwoll also took the count before

the Toledo attack. Veach poled two homers. Milwaukee won by staging a five-run rally in the seventh. Holke of the Indians was struck by his own foul ball Thursday and hurt painfully, but remained In action. The team Is going along handicapped by the lack of an extra inflelder. Jack Ryder, Cincinnati Enquirer sports writer, used an article In his paper this morning saying the Cincy Reds had offered SIO,OOO and Snortstop Emmer for Maurice Shannon, who was obtained by the Indians from the Cubs, but who refused to report. William Clauer, home secretary of the Tribe, stated this morning he was unaware of the offer. Owner Smith is in New York and Clauer hoped to get In touch with him today in order to learn if he has been approached by the Reds. Clauer said it was strange he had not been notified of the deal, “if any.” CARP BEATEN Tommy Longhran Wins Decision Over Georges.
