Fred Stoite scored an •'ace." or hole In one. while the other three. Major R. Harrlscn Jr.. Elmer Arnold and Kurt Ehlert all had deuces, 2's. We were discussing the feat at Avalon when Roy Smith, club pro. recalled a similar occurrence at Coffin several years ago on the short sixth hole, but there was some professional talent involved. u u u SMITH, who was involved in the Coffin feature, was playing with George Stark, then pro at Coffin, Frank Kissell and Tad Brown. Smith, Brown and Kissell all placed mashie shots so close to the pin that it appeared from the tee that they all would be certain of 2's. Stark stepped up and hit one that rolled into the cup for a hole in cne. Thereupon the others holed out their putts for deuces. u u u The achievement of Stoite, Harrison. Arnold and Ehlert. all amateurs. Is one that we think unequaled and our mail so far carries no challenges to that statement. V ' 0 0 0 We received the first copy of the new Pleasant Run Club paper. It is edited by Itgy von Kpreekclsen and is called “Hooks and Slices.” The east siders have a brand new men's locker room and golf shop and an active committee is busy rounding up new members to fill it. 0 0 0 A. W. Siler, secretary of the Riverside Golf Club, submits ihe completed schedule for the season. The first two items read: Riverside Club at Grandview Saturday, May 24. and Riverside at Coffin Sunday, Mav 25. Both will be lnter-club team matches. 000 ON June 8 Riverside will go to Terre Haute for a team match with Rea park, and on June 22 to Pleasant Run. On June 29 Anderson will come to Riverside. Thus all the month of June will be given to team matches, except June 15, which has a two-ball foursome with full handicap tournament scheduled. 000 A flag tournament is scheduled for July : 6 and a Riverside special tournament on July 13, but on July 20 the team matches again will take the head line, the team playing at South Grove and on July 27 Coffin team plays at Riverside. 000 Members may qualify for the club championship Aug. 3 or 4. Then on Aug. 10 Pleasant Run team will play a return engagement at Riverside.

Bakemeier when he scored his ace on the 128-yard eleventh hole. Ransdell a few days ago scored his ace on hole No. 7. Seven and eleven sounds like an African domino game. 0 0 0 The Coffin-South Grove team members really had a good time on Sunday, the mud and water bringing out some remarks that kept the bunch smiling throughout. Harry Schopp said that Charlie Reeves of the Coffin team is persistent. Charlie stood on the eighth tee, which requires the drive to go over the lake to the green. After plunking six balls into the water, Charlie finally got the lucky seventh across and was in the cup in 18. 000 Ted Kuhns of Coffin said the worm turned after the shower. Ted was going nice and had it all figured out as he stood on the sixteenth tee. that bv snagging a 4 on each of the last tl ree holes he would hav- a swell 76 for his aav's work, hut Ted counted up an 84 where a 76 should have been. 000 Ralph Stonehouse. pro at Coff n. had been boasting that Coffin boys are the ones who put the “go" in golf. Jack Snow. ecretarv of the Coffin club wiped the rain from his fare and inquired. ‘•Wonder who put the *l* In It?” 0 0 0 Mis* Aonnie Miller entertained a group of friends from Greenwood for a ntuiu ovrr South Grove.

FORTUNE AT LAST SMILES ON CARDS AND YANKS

Tribesmen Move Into * Triple Tie for Third Place in Flag Race Sicking Drives Warstler Home With Winning Run in Ninth Tuesday; Cvengros Outpitches Wysong of Senators; Sprinz Delivers in Pinch.

BY EDDJE ASH Johnny Corriden’s Indians were one up on Nemo Leibold’s Senators as a result of taking the series opener Tuesday in a tight fit, 4 to 3, during an afternoon of thrills for the customers, and the Tribesmen were

in a three-way tie for third place today with Columbus and Toledo. Likely pitchers in f ne second tilt this afternoon were Ambrose for the home nine and Wykoff for the visitors. Joe Sprinz went up to hit for Crouse in the seventh Tuesday and produced a double, the drive nearly going for a horn.'- The wallop scored Connolly and after Cvengrc was retired, Paul Wolfe singled Sprinz home wit.i the tying run, bringing the count to three and three. In the eighth Sprinz was up again with Sicking on the scoring bag and two out. but the Senators wisely walked him and got Wolfe or a bounder after Wysong had brushed Cvengros with a pitched ball. As the Tribesmen took their turn in the ninth the score still was even and Rabbit Warstler smote the sphere to the left field corner for a double and Dutch Kemner relieved lefty Wysong. With Hoffman batting, Warstler and ew a throw from catcher Devine and stole third. Thereupon the Senators passed both Hoffman and Barnhart and Eddie Sicking won the game with a line drive to left center, scoring Warstler. It went as a single only, but was good for a triple if it had been needed. It was Sicking’s third safety of the day. Mike Cvengros went the full route for the Corridenites and kept the Buckeyes baffled after the sixth.

HI I Ik Hf ■ :: f -i '7.

Joe Sprinz

Miraculous Tip Top Weekly fielding saved the Senators from being outdistanced in the seventh after the Tribe tied the fracas. With the bases loaded and Barnhart at bat, he smacked the ball a hard rap down near second and Shortstop Kingdon made a diving, one-handed stop, tossed to Morehart, while prone, retiring Hoffman and Morehart relayed to McCann ahead of Barnhart for a double play, retiring the side. And in the fourth Clarence Hoffman made a diving shoe top catch of Crabtree’s line drive to center. . Good base running got the Indians a run in the fourth when Hoffman hit safely to right and kept running to reach second with a slide for a double. The visitors didn’t think he would do it. After one out Sicking sent a fly to Neis, Hoffman bluffed a dash for third and Neis cut loose with a throw across the diamond that evaded everybody and bounced into the grandstand, Hoffman scoring. Bernie Neis. the turn hitter, batting right-handed against Cvengros’ southpaw delivery, lined the ball high up into the field seats for a homer in the sixth. It was a terrific smack and bounced over the high fence into the commons. About ICO Muncie friends of catcher Buck Crou >e were present to pay their respects to th; veteran, who resides in Muncie and learned his early baseball there. Mayor George Dale essayed to toss the first bail and it was wide of the plate. No teli’ng how far the Indians would climb if Manager Corriden possessed a punch in right field. He is forced to use inflelaer Wolfe out there against southpaw pitching and when facing right-handers. Koenecke is used, and Len’s batting average. has flopped. And with many doubleheaders piled up the team is going to be up against a problem in the way of pitching. Another “starting” hurler is needed at once. It is believed a deal is in Ihe making at Washington park. At any rate Jack Zeller, chief of the Detroit scouts, was in the grandstand Tuesday and the hunch is that Bueky Harris, Tiger manager, sent him here to size up Rabbit Warstler. The tad is batting over .300, handling his position in style—and the Tigers could use a shortstop. Harris has tried Rogell. Akers and Westllng and reports say none of the three has delivered. Air-minded members of the Senator team figured to surprise relatives and friends in Columbus bv dropping in there Thursday evening for dinner following the series finale with the Indians Thursday afternoon. After gaining the consent of all mates to an air hop bv T. A. T. planes, the club secretary, C. H. Thomas, wns propositioned. And Thomas vetoed it. “Too many eggs in one basket,” he explained.

Brown, Lynji and Erne Win Feature Scraps at Armory Local Lightweight Outpunches Howard Jones in Top Bout of Triple Windup.

Willard Brown, promising young Indianapolis lightweight, added another triumph to his record at the Armory Tuesday night, taking every round of his bout with Howard Jones, Louisville, in the feature eight-rounder of a triple windup bill. Jones’ timing was poor and when he did connect he lacked power. Willard used his left effectively and gave the large crowd another pleasing boxing demonstration. Joe Lynn’s aggressiveness gained him a verdict over Royal Cox in an all-local talent eight-rounder. Both battlers tried hard. Otto Anderson started fast in his bout with Willie Erne, and had the Kansas City man far behind. But Erne came back strong to take the closing rounds and the decision.
