Legion Gives 12 Seats to Starring Indians. IN addition to having a “boxing float" in the opening day baseball parade today, the American Legion fistic directors have donated twelve ringside seats, in pairs, for their April 19 show, to be awarded the six Indians outstanding in the grand inaugural with the Minneapolis Millers at Perry stadium today. It’s a. win or lose offering to the Tribe owing to the fact the Millers won't be here on April 19 and there will be no glove show at the Armory this week. Gerald Ely, Legion matchmaker, and Earl McKee, publicity director, are Tribe boosters and hope the players enjoy the “sock" party at the Armory next Tuesday.

TODAY we are to treat with the itinerate golf pres. Something will be said about the changes in residence made by some of our wellknown professionals at nearby towns. As far as we know, the Indianapolis situation is unchanged, with Neal Mclntyre at Highland, Dick Nelson at Meridian Hills, George Soutar at Broadmoor, Fred Schopp at Woodstock, Chuck Garringer at Speedway, Jimmy Lawson at Indianapolis Country club. Clayton Schultz at Sarah Shank, Ralph Stonchouse at Pleasant Run. Harry Schopp at South Grove and Russell Stonehouse at Riverside. They talk about the Smith brothers being attached to the cough drop industry. That's just two of
them. Right here at home we have a Smith brother combination that outscores the cough drop men. Out at Avalon Country club, Roy Smith will take charge of the pro duties, adding another year to a long string of seasons he has served in a like capacity at that course. Roy took charge at Avalon when the pro shop was located in a

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” which appeared in Monday’s Times: The Most Shining Mark of Heroism—Gaius Mucius. the shinng mark of Roman fortitude, was captured by King Porsenna of Clusium, and confessed that it had been his intention to assassinate the king to raise the royal blockade of Rome. He thereupon was sentenced to be burned alive,
the same old genial pro, day in and day out. tt tt tt l\larioq Smith, brother to Roy, will move from Peru, where he has been pro the past three years, to
Crawfords vi 11 e Country club. While at Peru, Marion worked hard with the amateur players, developing some good links pastimers, among them R. L. Redmond, who cut some figure in pro-amateur tournaments while teaming with Marion and also contributed some good golf to the state amateur
Marion Smith
tournaments. Marion did much to develop Miss Geraldine (Jerry) King, the young feminine star from Wabash, to the point where she was a threat in the state women’s tournament last year. a a a That makes a pair of Smith brothers, but we still have a third to offer. When golf gets underway
at Elwood this spring, Lester Smith will be on the job as pro. Lester moves over to the Mills City from Shelbyville, where he was pro at Blue River Country Club last year. Before that he was at Wabash. During the past winter he has been giving instruction at the Smith - Nelson school in the Board of Trade
building. While mentioning nearby ports, it might be well to mention that Pete Hendrie again will be at the Ulen club In Lebanon. That is the course where few boast of under-par rounds. tt tt M Freddy McDermott goes back to Blue River this year. He was at Crawfordsville a few years ago. He
was ill and had tough luck, then he went to Riverside. then to Shelbyville with a determination to keep his health and give ’em golf in true McDermott style. The members down there like Freddy. He does some pretty smart golf playing at times. For several seasons. while Freddy was having hard luck with
McDermott
his health, he also was having hard luck with his golf and earned the title of champion second placer, being runner-up in. the state open two or three times, always falling short a stroke or two of winning the big purse. WINTERS’ ARM O K. Larry Winters. St. Paul pitcher, was troubled with a sore wing last season, but let the arm out last week and experienced no pain. Lan* believes he is set for a big season.

but before the sentence could be executed Mucius thrust his right arm into the blazing fire and held it there, without flinching, until the arm had burned off completely. The king, impressed by the proud Roman's indifference to pain, ordered Mucius liberated. Henceforth, the latter became
Garden Builds $500,000 Arena for Heavy Title Tilt
BY HENRY McLemore United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 12.—“ Weary unto death," to quote James Joy Johnston, “of paying SIOO,OOO or more rent to the ball parks each year," the Madison Square Garden Corporation broke ground Monday for the erection of its own outdoor boxing arena at Queens, Long island. It was a ground-breaking worthy of the half-million dollar bowl which the garden says will be built. Mayor James J. Walker turned the first spadeful of dirt, and he was given commendable support by Borough President George Harvey

of Queens, 300 cameramen, 100 newspaper men and 5,000 lookerson. The Garden stadium is the direct outgrowth of one thing—the tremendous amount of rent demanded by the owners of the local National and American League baseball parks. The Garden has paid 10 per cent of the gross gate receipts, averaging from $50,000 to $70,000 for each of the big fights. Since the Garden stages three or four outdoor programs each summer, the rent of the baseball parks ran into a sizable fortune. In addition to major ring cards, the stadium also will be used for football, track events, bicycle racing and other sports.
