No less than five of the seven games yesterday were won by a margin of a single run and most of those were decided | in the final inning or two. While the Pirates were brought down from behind by a stirring Robin rally, the Yanlees were beat- en from in front by a seven run In- |\ dian lead piled up in the first two frames. A rookie Robin pitcher was the hero of the fray in which his club fellad the league leaders. Oddly enough the score of 11 to 10 was the same by which the Rebins beat the same team the before, This | time it was a single in the eighth from the bat of the young relief pitcher, Norman FPliitt, that sc the winning run.

In spite of a second circnit wallop from the bat of Pip- 3 relief pitcher, the Yanks could 1ot quite wipe out that early Cleve- Jand lead and lost hy 8 to 7. A bit over anxious in the ninth with the game at stake, the Babe swung hard at one of Uhle's curves and missed his third strike. | The Cardinals and Phillies waged another nip and tuck battle which Wil ACF arner.

While the White Sox dropped | their second In a row to the Sena- tors by 6 to 1, the Cubs crowded the Pirates for first place with their eighth straight victory.

He was awarded first prize over the | 28 entries vying with him for hon- | ors. Alan Sweeter with a gross of $0, a handicap of 7 and a net of 73 came in second while Rev. Samuel Suteliffe withs §6-12-74 and C. W Wilson with 92-18 third. This tournament was an event of | events at the club. Usually a net of | 70 is almost a sure bet to cop the “booby” prize but Saturday was of those days when champions “dubs.” This does not mean to ta any of the credit away from the winner because he was one of the exceptions in the fact that he was shooting fine golf. The reason for the unusually high |run of scores has not yet been dis- :lcovered but the “proof of the pud- |ding” as they say in select clrcles, lies in the fact that out of the field of 2§ entrants, only six cards were turned in. Woe be to the reckless bystander | who tried to josh the returning war- riors about the tongh going because there would be many a murder case listed on the court docket if looks could kill. While all Washington and the country was joyously cele- brating the return of Lindbergh to his home shores, nothing but gloom pervaded the ranks of the golfers at ttle Meadow. The handicap committee came in for a large share of sharp critieism because of the results but the mem- bers, speaking from the platform with “truth hurts” as its slogan, came right back today by saving that handicaps cannot be revised except from turned in cards and little re vision was needed Saturday among the half dozen scorcs submitted into | their tender care, Sunday, however, was another day. There were no “golf hang- overs” from the day before and de- spite the lowering clouds, the course was mobbed in the morning. Every cloud has its silver lining and though Saturday was one day to| make any golfer quiver in his wollen socks, Sunday proved to be th brightening of an otherwise drab | world. Every player was of a seri- | ous mien as he started out but wi the sun came the lightening of spirits and resulted in low scores. The smilies of the members as they came in from the 15th green, showed that it was a perfect day of golt for almost everybody. | ghland Team Beaten Captain W. J. Sweeney led his co- horts into battle Friday afternoon against the representatives of the Highland Country club of Meriden in a six-man team battle on the local course. The Shuttle Meadow sharp- shooters finding the taste of victory the week before swect and to their liking, sailed into Meriden con- tingent and smashed -out a 14 to 8 point victory. The cours about perfect for the matches and Val Flood and his assistants who care for the greer and fairways, deserve the plaudi of the multitudes for their work in | getting the splendid cooperation of Mother Nature in th®curing of the | grass. | The Highlanders came over the hills with burnished clubs denoting that they were from the Silver City. | They “were sore and determined to show the Hardware Cityites how the me should be played but they might as well have saved the job of polishing up their drivers and irons today because they were lick- ed from beginning to end. A great many of the matches wer | decided on the 1Sth green by a putt. Ted Hart, with a three point lead or nothing staring him in the face as | he played with E. Tredennick, strong contender in the tourneys, sank an eight foot putt for the match and total of three points. Alan Sweetser faced the last hole | with the job of getting a birdie to ke two points in his match with W. P. He putted the ball to | the cup straight and true and it just | !hung on the lip, robbieg him of an ¢, but he sank it for a four while opponent took a five. .

Ono of the most important en- gagements of the early Inter-Church | baseball league season will be ed at Willow Brook park this ev ning when the Stanley Memorial and First Lutheran church teams | meet each other. The game will have a decided bearing on first place, | as the Stanmor sluggers have not yet been defoated and the Luthe ans have lost only one contest; a| win for the latter would Knock their | opponents out of the first place tic| and drop them below their own | rung into third place. The two| teams are totally different in make- | up, the Stanmors being a slashing crew with a real murderers’ row and the Swedes being largely a de- fensive outfit; their mecting should be interesting. The game will be played on the “grass diamond.” | The Swedish Bethany team, which | is also among the leaders, will meect | the First Baptists, who are begin- | ning to break their run of tough luck. The Bethany outfit is favored | to win, but the Baptists are an out- fit which has streaks of fine playing and may surprise the Swedes. This game will be on Diamond No, 1. On | Diamond No. 2 the Everyman's I ble class and Center church will face cach other. The Bible class has yet | to win a game, while the Center church captured its first victory last Friday; both are anxious to get away from the end of the standing| and will work hard tonight. The South church will play the| champion St. Matthew's German Lutherans in a game postponed from | May 23 by rain. The former team has been hitting hard but getting nowhere; it hopes to concentrate its cfforts tonight and upsept the St. Matts, who are again on top.
