RUBRIDGE LEADS FIELD Denver Man Scores 72 in TransMississippi Golf Tourney. Bn Uititrd Press COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., June 21.—Record* of the first qualifying round of the twenty-seventh annual trans-Mississippi golf tournament here made it doubtful today that anything above an 82 would get into the championship flight. Thirty-one players had broken 82 or better at the close of Monday's play, and 16 were able to break 80. William Rubridge, Denver, led the field with a brilliant 72. Par is 70. James Manion and Eddie Held, both of St. Louis, came next with 73 each.

M’DERMOTT, GRAY VICTORS IN FT. WAYNE TOURNEY Local Golfers Capture Honors in Pro-Amateur Event —Other Gossip Culled From Links.

By DICK MULLER Keeping Freddie McDermott out. of the money in these pro-amateur events apparently can not be done. Freddy was nosed out of victory by a scant stroke at Highland last week when Neal Mclntyre, Highland pro, shot a brilliant game of “shinny.” Freddy came rignt back Monday at Ft Wayne and finished on top with a neat best ball score of 67. Freddy and Paul Gray, a mighty good amateur partner for any pro, were feeling blue today. Nou because they won. but of the fact they failed to get the 64 they were shooting at. Freddy had a 32 going out and Paul intermingled a few birdies and things were looking rosy for a proamateur record. But they faltered in home stretch, same in with par scores with a 67. They were just right for Dr. H. F. Newcomer, Elwood amateur, and H. Walters came i:i soon after with a 68 for second money. By the time the .score's were tabulated darkness had settled over the course rendering a play-off impossible for the three pairs tied for third money. They all had 70. They were Dick Nelson, Indianapolis, ana Guy Means, Ft, Wayne; Johnny Watson and R. T. Calendar. Marion, and Neal Mclntyre and Reub Morris. Indianapolis. After the event was over Chester Nelson entertained the whole gang with a fish dinner. Then the motor caravan moved southward carrying most- of the northern Indiana money along. Robertson on Hand Roy Robertson. South Bend, who qualified in the National Open, was on hand. He was not alone and the start of the tourney was delayed quite a while, while the boys gave “Robbie” and our old friend, George Stark, a great reception. Stark, at Coffin last year, is at Covington, Ky.. this year. George not only qualified-in the National Open, but played a v couple of fine rounds of golf at Oakmont. Hoosier A. C.

popularity that only better taste can explain

IN the whole tobacco world there’s no taste that can compare with the delicate richness of fine cigarette tobaccos. And for the full development of this taste, there is no cigarette like Chesterfield.

Sturtridge Considered Good Bet for Olympic Team Hu St A Ser’ ice REENCASTLE, Ind., June 2'. De Pauw University's greatest athlete can bring athletic honor to his alma mater in only one way hereafter—as a member of the 1928 Olympic team. De Pauw's greatest athlete is Richard Sturtridge of Gary, Ind. who received his diploma recently after an athletic career rivaled by few athletes in America. Sturtridge received national honors in track for three seasons and also acquitted himself honorably as a football and basketball player at De Pauw. He was also the best bowler, best tennis player and best hand ball player in school. Sturtridge plans one more athletic effort for De Pauw, Indirectly though it will be. He plans to return to school for three months next fall to train for the Olympic trials. Holder of several Indiana records and having placed well in the ten event decathlon in the I. C. 4-A meet for three years, Sturtridge is considered a good bet to be one of America's representatives m the Olympics next year.

iWNShDE uPmUT BY BILLY EVANS 1. With two out. baserunner is hit by batted ball that retires* the side, does batsman receive credit for a hit? 2. What is construed as a wild pitch? 3. Piecher strikes out batter who reaches first base because of failure of catcher to hold third strike, is pitcher credited with a strikeout? 4. Fielder throws ball a trifle wide to first baseman but it arrives in plenty of time to retire batsman but first baseman fails to touch first base. How is it scored? 5. Runner deliberately knocks bait out of hands of fielder about to touch him, what is the proper decision? THIS TELLS IT 1. Batsman always receives credit for a base hit on such a play, regardless of the status of the game at the time. 2. It is a legally delivered ball, so high, low or wide of the plate, that the catcher is unable to stop it, and thereby permits a batsman to reach first or a runner to advance. 3. Pitcher is credited with strikeout, regardless of whether the batsman Is retired. 4. Under such condition, charging the first baseman with an error would be the usual way of scoring the play. 5. Umpire should immediately call such baserunner out.
