Smarting under the humiliation of year's mcnopoly by a brace of Washington teams in the con- test for the team title, Baltimore has gathered together a group of its finest golfers unde: the banner of the Baltimore Country Club, and has fought its way to the final round in the team championships, where they will mcet the smooth- working Indian Spring combina- tion, present champions and vic- tors by large margins in most of their preliminary matches in the chase for the team title. The match will ke played over the neutral course of the Rolling Road Golf Club at Catonsville, Md., one which is as familiar t> the Indian Spring team as it is to the Baltimore Country Club ag- gregation. Indian Spring and Rolling Road always have been very friendly and frequent friendly team matches have been played between the two clubs over the Rolling Road course.

ONGE CUB CLUB OWNER, DEAD Storm Center of Base Ball 20 Years Ago Had Great Aggregation. By the Associated Press. HICAGO, October 17.—Charles ‘Webb Murphy, former owner of the Chicago Cubs, who boasted he had “run a shoe- string into a million,” is dead. | Murphy died at his home here late | yesterday, the victim of a stioke of apoplexy suffered last June. He was 63 years old. | He owned the Cubs during the famous | “Tinker to Evers to Chance” days, and | during his eight-year reign, the club won two world championships, in 1907 end 1908, four National League tities, | finished second twice and third another | two seascns. He was one of the raost picturesque characters of the spor$, and often engaged in bitter quarrels with the powers of organized base ball. Starting his career as a sports writer | in Cincinnati, Murphy resigned in 1904 | to become publicity director for the New | York Giants. While afliliated with the Giants, he dearned the Cubs could be purchased, and induced the late| Charles P. Taft, former Cincinnati pub- | lisher, to advance him $105,000 to buy | the club. | In 1913 Murphy sold his interests after a storm of protest, which followed his dismissal of Frank L. Chance, the | “peerless leader,” as manager, and later the firing of Johnny Evers, who had succeeded Chance. He engaged Hank O'Day, veteran umpire, to replace | Evers. Murphy was reported to have sold | | out for the sum of $750,000. | | Among his other holdings was the base ball park in Philadelphia, in which | the National League club plays. He was born in Wilmington, Ohio, and is survived by his widow, Mrs. Louise Murphy, and his father, John | Murphy, of Wilmington.

EW YORK, October 17.—One of the clubs for which Bur- lzigh Grimes has been sug- gested as manager in 1932 is Brooklyn. i During the world series ob- servant base ball men found three | things to admire in Grimes. One | was his skill as a pitcher. Almost | the oldest spit-ball huzler left in the game toaay, he made the Ath- | letics try for more bad good balls than any other pitcher of the St. |Louis team when the Athletics ’and Cardinals were battling for |the 1931 world base ball cham- pionship. A bad good ball is one that passes over a corner of the plat: at some point between the knee and shoulder of the batsman, p:esumably his weak spot. yet is so good that the umpire will be It is so bad the player cannot bat it successfully. In the first game that he pitched in Philadelphia Grimes held the Athletics to two hits. If he became manager of the Brooklyn team he probably would withdraw ‘from pitching, yet if he thought he could win a game by pitch= |ing, he would be like Manager Al Ma- maux in Newark last season. Mamaux | thought his pitchers needed a rest. So he pitched and won a double-header near the end of the ssason. A Game Player. A second point advanced in favor of Grimes is his courage. There is not & gamer player in the National Leagus He wanted to pitch two games in tI | world series in 1931 and had the chan to do so. It gratified him. “I can beat ‘em.” he said repeatedly to his friends. ‘I should have won from them in 1930 &nd they got the breaks. It is my turn this year.” In neither of the games that he won could the Athletics szore upon him until the ninth inning. In each game they made two tuns in the ninth. That is r | one of the oddities of the series thag has been overlooked. A base on balls Doe | o Cochrane and a home run to right | field made the runs in on the seventh and last game two men Were out with a player on Brst. Dykes got a base on balls. Tl | Grimes was touched up for singles by Williams and_Cramer, the = latter a | pinch hitter. With two runs in and two men on, Grimes was takcn out and | Hallahan finished with the last batter, Bishep. z | The important comment that Grimes made was that he never intended to let D n balls ving the ball game. In Knows His Base Ball. ‘The third que in Grimes is one of iaspiration. He is a fiuent talker and converses entertaininzly about base ball. He is en observant player and he would like to try managing a ball team bpecause he has confidence that he would succeed. | I have been traded often enough and I have had many managers,” he said. | "I have t-ied to get something from everv menager uncer whom I have | worked. I think I know a little about base ball outside of pitching. I have my ideas 2s to what players should do and how they should take care of themselves during ths serson. I also have ideas of my cv absut playing a ball_game correctly.

Devotees of the sport will recall the famous battle of Judge Daniel Thew Wright and T. Morris Wampler, both | duck-hunting attorneys, over duck blind privileges, and there has bzen many |another court wrangle for a coveted | position from which to shoot ducks. ‘While the provision is almost as old as any attempt to regulate duck hunting in Maryland, State Game Warden E. Lee LeCompte has asked this column to repeat, in the interest of sports- manship, that it is unlawful to hunt wildfowl between one-half hour after sunset and one-half hour before sun- rise the following morning, and that it is unlawful to utilize any light in hunt- ing wildfowl. 1t also is provided that any one own- ling a blind must so dismantle it that s d winning by B-—B8 and With Dog and Gun BY ARMISTEAD D.
