Playingthe Field

an interesting chat withlil ! Cruickshank in New

* York recently. Bobby, youknow, was the big noise of wintergolf. Winning four of the majorchampionship and finishing in themoney in several others, he was con-stantly in the spotlight.

When I offeredcongratulations ont h e remarkablegolf he playedover the coast andsouthern courses,Cruickshank withbecoming modestyreplied:

“I was on mygame all winter.Practically every-thing I triedseemed to workout. When youare going that

Evans

way you get a positive confidencein that is hard to beat.

“Sure I got plenty of breaks butit seems the breaks always fa'orthe golfer who is playing a winning

game.”

Cruickshank hopes he will con-tinue to play his unbeatable golfof the winter through the nationalopen. Several years ago he fin-ished in a tie with Bobby Jonesat Inwood for that honor but lostthe playoff.

NOT BAD FOR BASEBALL

Br— —JOBBY CRUICKSHANK is a

great baseball fan. like mostof the professional golfers.

His idea of ultimate relaxation istaking in a ball game and watching

Babe Ruth bust ’em.Cruickshank scouts the idea that

the golf swing is bad for the ballplayer. Asa matter of fact, be be-lieves a round or two of golf is idealas part of spring training.

“The only ill effects that can comefrom golf to a big league ball playeris through fatigue,” says Cruick-shank. “I wouldn’t recommend play-

ing eighteen or thirty-six holes in

the morning prior to an importantgame in tl)c afternoon.

“Golf takes something out of ev-erybody, especially if one plays thir-ty-six/ holes. There is a physical,not/to Mention a certain mental

that exacts its toll.”

I According to Bnbhy's theories, aRound of golf after a game or onfan off day is perfectly all right,

but nothing doing prior to a ballgame.

k big leaglers strong forI GOLF

ROFESSIONAL ball players

P as a whole are strong forI * -) golf. Most of them get a big

kick out of a long ball from the tee.I know lyim very conservative

■when I say 50 per cent of the big

league ball players indulge in golfany time the opportunity presentsitself. v

There are a great many of theathletes who play a mighty stiffgame. Arnold Statz of Brooklyn,

Sam Rice of Washington, "Stuffy"Mclnnis of Philadelphia and quite a

few others often play in the 70s.I know of several big league stars

who have the “bug” to turn golfpros as soon as their baseball days

are over. It’s the legs that go badfirst iti baseball, and they play buta minor part in golf.

Big league players are amateursIn golfing circles. That makes therecent decision which hars MaryK. Browrte from amateur golf arather unusual one.

ruling is inconsistentARY K. BROWNE, for fifteenyears a prominent figure in

tennis and golf, turned tennispro last winter when she accepted

pay for touring the country as Mile.Lenglen's partner.

The decision of the United StatesGolf Association is that Mary K.Browne is ineligible to compete inany tournament under its jurisdic-tion because in playing tennis forpay she acted in a manner detri-mental to the best interests of golf.

Dope that one out if you can.The decision is laughable because

of iti! inconsistency when one recallsthe ruling relative to professionalball players.

Regardless of the decisions ofthe powers that ho In golf, ManyK. Browne has the sympathy ofthe sport-loving public, who be-lieve In fair play.

INDIANS TRIM BREWERS AND GO NORTH FOR MILLER OPENERSTRIBLINGTACKLESTOMMYGeorgian, Philadelphian to

Tangle Early Next Weekat Ebbets’ Field.

By Frank GettyUnited Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, April 27.—Withwhat promises to be quite a rough

and tumble affair between TommyLiouglvran of Philadelphia, andYoung Strlbling of Atlanta, the out-door boxing season receives its bap-tism of blood and resin at Ebbet’sField next week.

It is possible Tom and Billy donot feel as much animosity towardseach other as they would have us be-lieve, but they are prattling a lotabout their intention-.■ As quite a lot is at stake, theymay be expected to turn in some realflirting. The winner will be in linefor a fight for the 175-pound title,which is worth a little hand-soilingnow and then.

Any bout in which Stribling is en-gaged, of course, is certain to be arough one. For the Georgianwrestles more than he boxes. It isnot an edifying sight. His op-ponents get the worst of it, as dothe fans and officials.

But as long as Billy keeps verticaland Wins decisions, he must becounted upon as a factor in thelight heavyweight division. Whathe needs js a Siam on the law, some-thing which hisfound difficult tfr administer, be-cause Stribling, when in trouble,crawls in and seizes them aroundthe waist.

Tommy Loughran, long kept Inthe background, promises to deliverthe well-deserved poke on the occas-ion of the battle next week.

Other results: Major Howard, In-dianapolis, won a technical knock-out over Herb Purdy, New Jerseylight heavy. The bout was stoppedin the fourth.

WYATT CRASHES HOMER

Locals on Road for Visits inFive Cities.By Eddie Ash

The Brewers were looking for asponge to soak up their tears whenthe series tfith the Indians closedTuesday. The Tribe made it threevictories in a row by taking thewind-up, 8 to 3, and the Milwaukeegang left town with only one vic-tory in four battles at WashingtonPark.

The Brewers expected to fatten onthe Tribe when they invaded Indian-apolis. Now they have changed their

estimate of Man-ager Bruno’s pas-timers.

Joe Wyatt wasin the limelightagain Tue sday

with three hits,one a homer withtwo mates onahead. The Hoo-sier Sycamore hasamassed a healthybatting average re-cently and is lead-ing the Tribe reg-ulars with the ash.

Bill Bu r w ellblanked the Cream City outfit inseven of nine stanzas Tuesday andbroke into the hit column himselfwith a double. He held the enemyto seven safeties and fanned five.

The Indians crashed the horse-hide for thirteen blows. ElmerY'oter proved a busy lead-off manby getting two singles, a double anda walk.

The return of good weather at-tracted a happy throng to the

IR9llpiVoter

struggle and thefans had a greattime kidding theBrewers, whonever were in thelead.

The Tuesdayfray ended the In-dians’ first homestay and today

at 2:30 the Tribesqu ad departedfor Minneapolis,where on Thurs-day the Bcizeliteshelp the Millersopen the season

in the Flour City. Louisville willbe at St. Paul. Toledo at Milwaukeeand Columbus at Kansas City. Allclubs were idle today while travel-ing to the western cities.

The Indians just got into theirstride when they ran out of homegames. In four series the locals hadgood weather only three days.

How beautiful the sun is shining,and how warm the atmosphere, now !that the club is away.

Bunny Brief seldom gets the air |in a ball game, but he yelped so jmuch when struck out Tuesday he jwas banished by Umpire Derr. |

Orwoll, a pitcher-outfielder, took jBunny's place and crashed a triple.

Dinty Gearin was supported poor-ly by his Brewer mates.

Joe Wyatt drove in four of the 'Tribe eight runs.

After Gearin doubled off Burwellin the eighth. Bill came up In thehome half and doubled off Gearin,

McCleaster. local umpire, againhandled the field decisions o. k.

The Brewers were held runlessfrom the third inning Sunday untilthe seventh round Tuesday—twenty-one innings without scoring.

After Wyatt connected for hishomer in the eighth Tuesday, BobSnyder stepped to the plate andnearly duplicated the feat. Bob'slong fly was snared by Orwoll as theBrewer left fielder leaned againstthe low fence.

Shortstop Kopf is delivering Insplendid style in the field, but hishitting is weak. The road tripmay bring him out of the batslump. Everybody Is pulling forLarry to make the grade.

Minneapolis and St. Paul are tiedfor the lead as the scene of A. A.action shifts west.

other averages are recorded in theK. I. O. the same as in organizedbaseball circuits, and many hotgames occur during a season.

K. I. O. League games will beplayed here when the Indians areon the road. Pennsy Park has beenimproved, there are plenty of seats,grand stand and bleacher. ThePennsylvania Athletic Associationspent considerable money dollingup the grounds this spring.

Manager Gaalema has recruitedwhat he figures a strong team torepresent Indianapolis. There hasbeen lively bidding for berths on thepart of young players. In fact, Gaal-ema seems to supplied a longfelt want locally by obtaining aK. I. O. League franchise.

Many youngsters, employed, hesi-tate about giving up jobs to try outin the lower minor leagues, but hereis a circuit in which they can testtheir baseball prowess and continueto work and live at home.

Appeal lo BoostersTherefore, diamond fans of Indian-

apolis are urged to get behind theMerits and boost their chances. Al-ready the south side has become in-terested. and if the booster spiritspreads, there's going to be somereal enthusiasm at Pennsy Parknext Sunday when the K. I. f).League lid is lifted. The game willstart at 2:30.

ture. Warstler Is fast, owns a finethrowing arm and he ts a pepperbox. He lacks league experience,however, and the Tribe bosses be-lieve daily action with Quincy willmean more to the lad than sitting onthe Tribe bench.

Warstler has been farmed out forthe season and if he makes good inthe Three-I he will rejoin the In-dians after Sept. 11. which is theclosing date of the Class B loop. TheA. A. schedule ends Sept. 25.

Warstler has not been in enoughgames this spring for his battingpower to be determined and his swataverage with Quincy will be watchedclosely by the Indians. CharlieSchmidt, former big league catcher,is Quincy-manager.

The Indian-Quincy agreement callsfor Warstler to be used at short-stop only.
