WATTS GUNN DOES NOT REMEMBER WHEN HE STARTED PLAYING GOLF Students Frolic As 50-Year-Old Colby Gym Burns Waterville, Me, May 4— (AP)—Colby college’s 50 year old gymnasium was swept by fire early today while the sti dents, many of whom apparent- ly were not reluctant to view the replacement of the old building by a new structure, Rood naturedly jeered the fire- men and at one point attempted to turn off a hydrant but were’ repelled by a drenching from a hose line. Firemen regarded the origin of the blaze as suspicious and started an inquiry. Considerable equipment was saved by students who, how- ever, declined to aid the fire- men in dragging lines or other- wise facilitating the work of extinguishing the blaze. A new gymnasium has been Projected and $50,000 of a -$125,000 building fund has been subscribed. ——_—___.__.__...._.

Getting the jump on the rest of the field in the first invasion of the west, the Boston Braves scuttled the Pittsburgh Pirates in the Cor- sairs’ own waters yesterday, 5 to 4, in 11 innings. Had Ed Brandt, rookie left hand- er from Seattle, been given the sup- port his pitching deserved, the Braves would not have had to go extra innings to win. Errors by Doc Farrell in the second and seventh innings gev: the Pirates two unearned runs and a chance to carry the contest past the ninth inning. A single by Brown, sacrifice by Bell and a ‘one-base blow by Farrell gave the Braves the winning run in the eleventh. The Corsairs got two men on base with one out in their half of the same stanza but Lloyd Waner grounded into a double play. Ray Kremer gave up 10 hits against a dozen his teammates garnered off Brandt but the Braves put their quota together at oppor- tune moments. Cards Beat Reds Good pitching by Flint Rhem en- abled the Cardinals to end their four-game losing streak at the ex- pense of the Cincinnati Reds, 7 to 5, at St. Louis. Khem kept the Reds’ nine hits—one a homer by Walker—scattered encugh to pre- vent Cincinnati from overcoming a five-run lead the Cards piled up off Eppa Rixey in the first two innings. Pete Donohue, reformed holdout, succeeded Rixey in the third and held the Cards to five hits and one run in five innings. Edwards fin- ished for the Reds and the last St. Louis run was scored off him. Douthit and Blades handled 13 put- outs in the St. Louis outfield. All other National League clubs had an open date as did six of their SAINTS TAG BLUES BY HALF GAME AS | INDIANS FALL, 3.9|*— Kansas City Clings to Half- Game Lead; Millers win Fourth Straight (By The Associated Press) Buoyed by six consecutive vic- tori the last four of which were over Indianapolis, Nick Allen’s St. Paul club was pounding on the gates of first place stronghold of the American association today. Kansas City was in first place but only by a half-game margin. The Saints took their sixth straight victory by making a clean sweep of the Indianapolis series. Yesterday, Joe Giard held the In- dians to seven scattered hits and blanked them, 3 to 0. It was the fourth shutout game of the season j for St, Paul.

HELEN WILLS RECOVERS Paris, May 4.—()=-Helen Wills today had shaken off a cold and a light attack of bronchitis. She said this morning that she would go to American League brethern. Orwoll Lores Game The one American League contest saw the Philadelphia Athletics’ seven-game winning streak halted by Ed Morris, recruit right hander, and the Boston Ked Sox, 3 to 1. Morris allowed only four hits and the Athletics failed to hit safely un- til the seventh when Cobb doubled and eventually scored his team’s only run. Ira Flagstead was Boston’s defensive and offensive star. He captured six flies in the outfield, got two hits, walked once and scored two runs. Ossie Orwoll picked a bad day to pitch a six-hit perform- ance for the clan of McGillicuddy. The world’s champion New York Yankees went to West Point and beat the army, 20 to 9. Babe Ruth played first base for the Yanks. No homers rolled off his bat but some of the very best grade pop flies did. McGraw Offered 5-Year Contract At Cincinnati arnouncement was made that John McGraw had agreed to manage the club for two more years and longer if he so desires. Charles A. Stoneham, president of the Club, said he had offered the “Little Napoleon” a five-year con- tract but McGraw rejected it. Now 55 years old, McGraw said he want- ed to leave himself free to retire after the seasons of 1929 and 1930, should he so desire. “I may want to quit or New York may be tired of McGraw after 28 years,” he explained. Andy Cohen, sensational second baseman, joined the Giants’ long hospital list. He is suffering from influenza. Andy Reese will fe sent to second base until Cohen recovers. Making Good as Hurler Malcolm Moss, just a youngster off the Vanderbilt campus, is re- garded ak one of the best pitchers with Louisville this year. He re- cently blanked Kansas City, allowing only five hits. _—— Good Sweet Clover Seed 6c Ib. Linota and Buda “119” Seed lax, State Certified Grimm Alf: (Resulting field can be regi tered.)
