A TALL, gangling 13-year-old California school girl, who literacy grew up with a golf club as a toy, may make her debut in national competition this year. Clara Callender skyrocketed to feminine golfing fame when she defeated the cream of California's women golfers to win her first tournament—the Del Monte Women’s championship, emblematic of the California state championship. Totally lacking in that bugaboo of tournament golf nerves bobbed haired Clara waded through in steady style. She played the final round for the title with unconcern. Golf is a “religion" in the Calender family. Clara’s father, Eliot Callender, is professional at the Monterey Peninsula Country Club. Her mother also was a golfer. When Clara was eight, her parents started her golf training with the same interest that other parents teach their children piano or violin. Nationally known tournament golfers more than once have displayed keen interest in her ability to drive 200 yards with consistent accuracy. Golf experts and sports writers of California have been hailing Clara as an embryo feminine Bobby Jones ever since the Del Monte event. They confidently boast that her nerveless game will enable her to become a national sensation. BUFFALO GERMANS REAPPEAR FOR CHARITY. IT will take an old-time basketball fan to remember the Buffalo Germans, a team that swept everything tackled in the long ago. The great aggregation from New York state played in Indianapolis a couple of times and dazzled the Hoosiers with their team work and accurate barket shooting. Tile Germans won 107 straight games when in their prime and they barred no team in the country. Age finally slowed 'em up and they dropped out of competition altogether about twelve years ago. Most of the old boys still reside in Buffalo and were brought out of retirement there recently as an added attraction on a charity sports program. Former members of the world's champions who braved the hardwood again are A1 Heertit and Hank Faust, forwards; George Schell, center; Bill Rohde and Harry and Eddie Miller, guards; Freddie Schell and Louis Huetter, reserves. This group held the world's cage title for several years. tt tt tt tt a it TRAFFIC STOP SPLIT UP DEAN FAMILY. THE scribes in the southwest are having a lot of fun describing the actions and habits of Elmer <But Not Great) Dean. He is said to be the dizziest of the Dean family, surpassing the brothers, Dizzy and Paul by several country blocks. His whereabouts was unknown to his parents for four years and one story relates' how Elmer happened to become lost in the foothills of the Ozarks. According to the latest yarn cooked up by the scriveners, the Dean family, in moving from one state to another, started out in two automobiles and Elmer was at the wheel of the second car. Going through a town, one car beat the red light, but Elmer’s didn’t, and that was the last heard ol him until this spring. Elmer is trying out with the Houston club. where the Dean family resides. He is endeavoring to become a pitcher, for he convinced the management he was no outfielder, infielder, catcher or batter. When Elmer first donned a uniform he showed up at the park with shoestrings tied around his pants at the knees and sporting a fancy bow. He knew nothing about the “big league roll.” The big fellow is not talkative like brother Dizzy, but the harder he tries not to be funny the funnier he becomes. a ts tt tt tt THE Sporting News’ little “record book” for 1933 carries some ballplayer jargon amusing to fans who seldom, if ever, get. within ear shot of ball park dugouts. Here is some of it: Ash Heap—a rough infield. Banana Stalk—a bat with poor wood ii* it. Base Knock—safe hit. Bleeder—scratchy single. Boot or Kick—an error. County Fairgrandstand player. Can of Corn—high easy fly. Dump One—bunt. Fancy Dan—a player who poses. Dunkef—pop fly over infield. Gully Jumper—railroad train. Put the Pine—to hit a ball solidly. Two O'clock Hitter—one who hits line drives in batting practice and pops up in the game. Yankee Doodle Hitter—a weak batter. a tt a a a tt Frank McGowan, former American Association outfielder, is the new manager of the Baltimore Orioles of the International League. He was asked if he would venture to say where the Orioles would finish this year and replied promptly: "Sure, in Newark. ’’ tt a tt o a a CENTURY MILSTEAD. who was all-state tackle when he played foot-j ball for Wabash and who later entered Yale and was named as all-America tackle, is a professional wrestler. He says the mat sport is; tougher than football. “The canvas is a whole lot harder than the gridiron," he explained. Milstead was named Century because he was ! born on Jan. 1. 1900. tt a tt tt a tt “Not a Ghost of a Chance” headlines are becoming painful reading to followers of the Cincy Reds. Anyway, the players hope the ghost! continues to walk twice monthly. They’re willing to leave it up to Ownie Bush to guide them out of the cellar. a a a tt a a Things must be breaking tough for Joe E. (You Said a Mouthful) Brown, the movie comedian. Thursday night, in San Francisco, he appeared in a professional wrestling match, tossing Steve Strehlich. Joe has the mouth and voice to set new records in the grunt and groan league. “ a tt tt a o tt At a recent hockey game in Boston a gallery occupant threw a sawed-off. double-barreled shotgun at one of the New York Rangers. j The fan’s control was bad. otherwise there would have been a slain; Ranger. During another game a fan scattered a deck of cards on the j ice, compelling the referee to pick up the pasteboards, a difficult job on skates. A playful trick of certain hard-boiled hockey pastimers con-: sists of using scissors to snip off the neckties of their pals or the neck- j wear of anybody who happens to get in their path when they are “in the mood.”
