shooting star list consists of several . marks above 630. Myers competed in the Branch 35 League at the Fox-Hunt drives. C. Wray, who finished second, was consistent in his series with 220, 223 and 22] for a 664. Wray rolled in the Indianapolis Church League. Another member of the same league, F. Krause, followed closely with 662. He had two games better than any " single game rolled by Wray but was unable to show steadiness. His games were 224, 212 and 226.

The Budge-Ellsworth Vines tour reaches the halfway point at Richmond, Va. tonight and in their 15 matches to date attendance and gate receipts have topped any previous pro swings. Although Don has won 10 matches to five for Vines, capacity audiences have turned out in many cities, including this one where Vines broke | Budge’'s six-match winning streak

The more I think of the possibilities of owning your own course, the more I believe I'll write to Santa right now and ask him for a golf course of my very own next year.

Background of Pain

But to get back to Dick Metz, the Hero before Mr. Lasker and I took

the play away from him. His two victories since the first of the‘year, and his second place in the National Open last year, have a background of pain and gameness. Two years ago next month doctors were debating whether to amputate his left leg to save his life. Badly injured in an automobile accident, his golf career seemed at an end. Dick’s leg was a long time healing, but even when it caused him excruciating pain he would hobble out to the practice tee and hit shots as long as he could bear it. Even as late as the National Open in Denver last fall Metz had trouble play-

It brought the customer total to 90,275, an average of 6014. This compares with the $6693 average set by Vines and Fred Perry in 1937. Vines-Perry played 62 matches and drew $415,000. Vines-Budge hardly can hope to approach the latter figure because they are meeting only 32 times. But their average gate probably will be higher.

Since, then he has been steadily improving as a golfer, and the time may not be far away when Mr. Lasker, all by himself, will have to celebrate Dick’s winning of a national title.

They slap one another on the back and, in general, are extremely hilarious. : If Metz wins a national title it is

Adds Psychology To Pirate Course

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 24 w, P)— When the Pittsburgh Pirate baseball club trains at San Bernardino, Cal, this spring, their players will study psychology with their baseball. Pie Traynor, manager of the Buccos, feels one of his biggest jobs is to inflate the confidence of the players so they will forget

those three games in Chicago last September that cost the Pirates the National League pennant. “What the Pirates will need is a good course in psychology,” said Traynor. “I'l have to keep drumming into them that we must look ahead, forget the past and start in fresh. For all but five days, the

| Pirates were the best in the league.

“What's gone is gone. We can’t look over our shoulders and think what might have been. During a regular season, we try to leave every game in ‘the club house; win or lose, ‘especially when we lose. We'll begin that way this spring and hope for the best.”

Making It Tough On Millrose Head

NEW YORK, Jan. 24 (NEA)— Fred Schmertz, director of the Mill-

Flaherty called Schmertz and’ used a marked accent while talking. “M’sieu Schmertz,” said Flaherty, “ziz is Josef Mostert. I regret zat 1 cannot run in ze Millrose Games Feb. 4. My cousin get married in St. Louis zat day and I go there.” Schmertz, who plans on making the Belgian middle distance star one of the chief attractions, was frantic.

Aldridge Will Ask Trester to Testify About ‘$100,000 Fund.’

diana High School Athletic Associa-

i |tion and its handling of basketball

receipts, is to be launched within a few days by the Senate Education, Committee. Senator Victor E. Aldridge (D.

| Terre Haute), committe member, to-|

day was to notify Arthur L. Trester,

I. H. 8. A. A. Commissioner, of the Committee's action and ask Mr. Trester to testify concerning an alleged “$100,000 reserve fund.” The Committee approved these steps during a discussion yesterday of a bill, introduced by Senator Sohn Bright Webb (D. Indiana create a state board of ath trol. Another bill, which would return the 16-team state basketball tournament and provide athletic scholarships for outstanding players, is pending in the House. It was introduced yesterday by Rep. Arnold C. Nahand (D. Indianapolis). Senator Webb stated that he “had

etic con-

a reserve fund of $100,000.” “I don’t believe,” he said, “that the people of Indiana would approve of this. This private corporation is using the enrolled pupils of Indiana as revenue producing units.” : ‘The Committee also is to call members of the State Accounts Board to testify after Senator Webb said “no audit of the I. H. S. A. A. books has ever been made. for the public’s information.” The Committee voted to summon Mr. Trester after Senator Walter S. Chambers (D. New Castle) asked: “Do you mean to tell me that receipts from, high school games go to a private corporation?”

‘It’s Like a Doctor , , . Senator Howard V. Johnson (R. Mooresville) said it was his “understanding that the I. H. S. A. A. gets money only from the state tournaments.”

Senator Webb also charged that gymnasiums were built throughout Indiana and the cost put on the townships, causing them to be in debt while their rightful money went to a private firm. He said that the present system of control gives only the athletes the benefits to the detriment of the other pupils. “It is like a doctor in a town the size of Anderson giving 10 babies the’ best treatment available and then neglecting the other children,” he stated. “Let’s give every student the benefits—not just the team.” Senator Marker Sunderland (D. Yorktown) also urged the investigation and asked, “if the athletic situation is being well-handled by the L H. 8. A. A, why would they object to an: accounting? Let's ‘have. Mr. Trester. appear Senator ebis bill provides for a five-man State board of athletic control. Members of the board already on the public payroll and who would receive no salaries, would include the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, a eounty superintendent, a town school principal, a city superintendent and a college athletie director. All would be appointed by the State Board of Education. Expenses of operation would come|s from the receipts of high school athletic contests after which the remainder would be turned over to school . trustees to retire bonds for operating expenses.

HOSPITAL UNIT ASKS FOR NEW TAX TRIAL

Judge Spencer Gets Motion By Asbury Foundation.

Judge Herbert M. Spencer of Superior Court 2 had under advise-

trial in the tax exemption case of State taxing officials.

Methodist Hospital, brought the suit aghinst taxing officials more than a year ago, seeking to have its farm in Wayne Township taken off the County tax duplicates on the ground that proceeds of the land go to hospital charities. Joseph Williams, former judge of Superior Court 2, ruled recently that $3384 taxes levied against the foundation be set aside and that the property be listed as tax exempt. Attorneys representing the State in arguing for a new trial yesterday, declared that the farm land could not be exempt from taxation because no part of a charitable institution oceupied the land.

A.M. A, PUSHES FIGHT AGAINST FIREWORKS

Indiana’s Record Last Year Is Termed ‘Shameful.’

By Scienee Service ; CHICAGO, Jan. 24.—Incensed at the alarming increase in Fourth of July injuries last year, the American Medical Association has resumed its crusade against this menace to life and health. Legislators have been urged to consider antireworks legislation this session. Pennsylvania, Indiana and Missouri had shameful records of injuries last Independence Day, the American Medical Association’s figures, released in this week’s Journal, show One-third of the deaths’ from fireworks occurred in Pennsylvania. St. Louis for the second year led, all cities in the ratio of injuries to population, with Philadelphia, Los Angeles, New York and Cleveland showing large increases over the previous year in the total number of

injuries per 100,000 population. The total number of Fourth of].

July injuries reported to the A. M. A, in 1938 was 7933 as compared with 7205 in the preceding year. Nearly three times as many persons lost the sight of one or both eyes in 1938 accidents as in 1637. There were more than twice as many amputation. required. |These figures do not take into consideration injuries treated in hospitals that failed to report to the . M. A. or injuries treated by phyians in their office. | “In general only those states which have enacted and enforced statewide laws have shown any evidence of satisfactory control,” the medical journal states.
