Diddle Steps Into SemiFinals at Golf Meet INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 25. Will Diddel stepped Into the semi-finals of the championship fight of the Indiana state golf tournament yesterday at the Country Club when he won a 36bole match from Edward Lennox by 2 up and 1 to go. H. H. Dronberger, Jr., of Terre Haute worked his way into the semiinals when he defeated Frank Kissel 1 up and met Diddel Thursday. In the lower half of the bracket, Charles Fletcher will meet Herman Striken. Fletcher won from McNaughton. 6 to 4, while Slelken walloped Frank Williams, 10 to 9. The score of this match came as quite a surprise, every one thinking that Williams would play much better golf than he did. The Highland player was off his game and Sielken had no trouble whatever winning. SPRINGFIELD MINTS PLAY. HERE SUNDAY On Sunday, July 28, the Springfield Mints will come to Richmond and play the Richmond Giants. The Springfield manager In reply to George Brehm's letter asking for the game and some dope on the team, said there was no no one man on the team who stands out above the others, but that the whole team comes up to the standard of semi- pro baseball. He said that the team had only been defeated once and that time by the North American Giants by the close score of 2-1. The team has been playing the best teams In Ohio and now has the reputation of being the Ohio state champs. The lineup of he team is as follows: Hayer, c; Hill lb, Dewitt ss, Scott y, If, Jeffries rf, Kenneday 2b, Reed 3b, Scott p. Young and Hendrix, extra. ky JACK KEENE Gene Paulette. who was a Giant recruit back in 1911, has found the road to success a hard and rocky one, yet by applying himself diligently to his work and taking set-backs which came his way without a murmer he seems to have accomplished the journey. Today he is one of the few stars of the St. Louis National league club and is rated by Jack Hendricks as one of the best all around, players he has ever seen. Paulette began his baseball career as a catcher on the University of Arkansas team in 1910 and the following spring received a trial with the Giants. At the time John Mc Graw was not in need of a catcher, as Chief Meyers was then at the top of his form, so he converted Paulette into a first baseman. The youngster was of course lacking in experience, but McGraw kept him until July of the following season, when he sent him to Mobile. There Paulette remained until the close of the 6eason of 1913. when he was sold to the Cleveland club. Once more given a chance to make good in the big 6how, Paulette again J failed to land a regu ar berth, as Doc Johnston was at the time covering me initial sack for the Indians, so the youngster was sent to the Cleveland club of the American Association. A month later he was shifted to Nashville and stayed there until near the end of the 1915 campaign, when he was purchased by the St. Louis Browns. Paulette reported to Branch Rickey, who was then managing the Browns, immediately, stuck until the close of the season and showed up with that club the following spring, but as it was necessary for him to beat out George Slsler for a Job or go back to the minors he was soon on his way to the bushes. He was sent to Memphis, recalled in the fall and sent back again in the sring of 1917, then last June Rickey, who had gone over to the Cardinals, brought Paulette back to the majors. Injuries to one player or another In the Cardinals squad this season have given Paulette a chance to play every position on the team but pitcher and catcher, and he has made good in all of them. MAY GET "SUB SWATTER" A letter was received by Secretary Ullman of the Commercial club from J. A. Bell, U. S. N., stating that he would do everything in his power to bring the "sub-swatter" to Richmond. This is a train of sailors and a band from the Great Lakes Naval Training sttlon which is to go through Indiana to show the work being done In the United States Navy. LORD HEADS LABOR 8ECT10N.

HERE l! War Causes Decrease in Alcoholism in N.Y.; Less by Two-Thirds NEW YORK, July 25. Alcoholism in New York has decreased in one year to less than onethird of the volume of last year, as a result of the practice of war time thrift, the opportunities for regular employment and the increased cost of liquor, according to Bellevue Hospital officials. The hospital records, made public today, show that within the last six months, 1,079 alcoholic cases have been treated at Bellevue, as compared with 3,757 in the same months of 1917. Although the increase in the cost of liquor may be a factor in the improved conditions, Dr. Stephen P. Jewett, of the Psychopathic Ward at Bellevue, said that the war atmosphere and the development of habits of thrift proved the great aids to sobriety. "I am of the opinion," Dr. Jewett said, "that the sale of Liberty bonds and thrift stamps, together with the duty of contributing to worthy war charities has been an important factor in lessening alcoholic excesses in New York and throughout the country."
