THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, ‘WEDNESDAY, MARCH 3 BRINGING UP FATEER S WENT ON WERE SAY JUS HAVE AN TO SO HE'D = EXCUSE HIT HIM= ELKS' PINS FALL BEFORE TELLING ORIOLE ATTACK Mesdames Petrich, Dufresne | and Bringdale Head Furious Bombardment Putting aside all restraint for the nonce, the Orioles last night at the | Elks’ alleys abandoned themselves | to vicious onslaughts on the ranks of pins, and when the haze of bat- tle had cleared away, one-third of the Amazons had at least a half thousand prone pins to their credit. | Flanked by Mrs. Art Bringdale | and Mrs. . Frank Dufresne, Mrs. | Tom Petrich emerged as the vi torious marshal of the night, claim- | ing 534 scalps as she led her Wax- wing advance guard against the| Skylarks, and carried the enemy‘s} position after being only tempor- arily repulsed in the second en-| gagement of the encounter. But the chief of staff, Mrs. Du-| fresne, gathered for herself cnly, one pin less glory as she maneuver- ed the Siskin cavalry in an adv: e | on the Towhee outposts, resulting | in a pitched battle that wos the high spot of the campaign. ; The Siskins unwittingly - cerried | the day in the opening mix which they swung by only one dead pin.i Despite the most gallant single com- bat of the night put up by Mrs. Du- fresne in the second meeting of the | battle, when she alone accounted | for the disposal of 194 of the enemy, ! the Towhees rallied to stave off their ultimate downfall, setting the | attacking Siskins well back on their | . heels, 'But Mrs, ‘Dufresne then re-! organized her forces to carry the Towhee stronghold in the final drive. But when the victims were| counted, the winners and losers had | left an equal number of slain be—; hind. On the other wing, Lieutenant Bringdale put up an inspired single | handed fight, 514 pins falling be- fore her sword, 187 of them in one| sally, but her Blue Bird forces were | overpowered and though winning ' through in one sector, were routed on both other fronts by the Mock- ing Birds ynder Mrs. Robert Kauf- | mann. | While the Exalted Rulers hold | sway at che Elks’ tonight, the alley battleground will be temporarily de- serted. The next conflict there will be waged by the Ringers on Thurs- day night.

They Like most big league ball players, Sammy Byrd, the former Cincinnati Red outfielder, doen't get a chance to play much golf except during the off season. Yet he recently won the national baseball players’ cham- pionship over the Bobby Jones course at Sarasota, Fla., with a (284—which happens to be exactly par. Byrd is the tcp golfer among bail players. Others are convinced he is too good for them. They want no part of his game. They voted to bar Byrd or any other who'has collected money as a golf profes- sional. Jones Likes His Game Sammy might have been one of the top-flight professional golfers had he not chosen a baseball car- eer. He is a natural golfer. Bobby Jones once paid him a compliment, nominating Sammy the best man off the tee he had ever seen. Jones is not given to tossing orchids un- less they are earned. One thing about Byrd—he is not temperamental. He doesn’t insist on playing with his own clubs. Sammy has picked up borrowed clubs and given a good account of " BIG LEAGUERS WORK AND PLAY ; Dizzy Dea S B1RD = RATED at Miami Beach, Fla,, are (left to right): of the St. Louis Cardinals; Lyn Larry, o Boston Red Sox.

On one suc ponement of a ball game in Phila- delphia, Byrd accepted an invita- tion to meet Denny Shute, former |British open and present P.G.A. jclub where Denny was pro. The course was far-from its best condition due to the rain, and Byrd’s borrowed outfit was not a duplicate of his own, but he did better than fair. He carded a 69 —one over Shute's course record. ‘President’ Waner Paul Waner, the Pittsburgh out- fielder who won the ’'36 National League batting crown, is not a bad | golfer except for addressing the ball from the wrong side.. Paul recent- ly won the Miami Biltmore left- handers’ golf championship for the second time running, and was elect- | ed southpaw president. The one big reason why Babe Ruth is not pining away is that he has all the ime he wants to play golf. The Bambino rates only a three handicap and, were it not for ihis erratic putter, could hold his own in any company. — e+ NOTICE For special fresh dressed chlckrnsw’ call Femmer, phone 114. adv. ———— - Baseball, which has been off the| :University of Kansas schedule five| Iyears, will be restored this spring| with a schedule of 14 games with| conference opponents. 1 to work off any fat which might Goose Goslin and Hank i oceasion, | when wet grounds caused a post-| |champion - at the Llanerch country STEELE PUTS PIRRONE 0UT, FIRST ROUND |[Champion Wins Nontitle Match in Quick Time in Philadelphia PIIILADELPHIA, Pa, March 3. —Freddie Steele, middleweight champion, scored a technical knock- out over Paul Pirrone, of Cleveland, after one minute and fifty-seven seconds fighting in the first round of a scheduled ten rounder here last night, Stecle groggy at knocked his opponent the start with vicious |vights and leits.
