The Stanley Works is making a great bid for another Industrial baseball league pennant. After tast- ng the fruits of its hard work last season, the team has made an early start towards molding together an- other strong combination. “Chucky” Wojack has gone to work at the plant and, as the Industrial league has a clause in its by-laws that re- quires a man to have been an em- ploye of a concern for at least 30 days prior to the opening of the teason, “Chucky” will be eligible ror the 8tanley Works team. The final plans for the Inter- Church baseball league were laid last night at a meeting of the managers interested. All that remains before the season will get under way is for the committee appointed to draw up & schedule of games for the season. ' The Corbin Red Sox candidates will turn out for another workout at Walnut Hill park next Thursday night at € o'clock. Many more can- didates than were out last Saturday, are expected to turn out for the workout to make tries for places on the team. Manager John Tobin ix already at work forming a busy schedule for his club. The Falcons, elated over the vic- tory scored in their first game, plar 1o stage another spirited workout at 8t. Mary's fieid next Saturday after- noon. Made up, as the team is, of almost all local men, the squad should be able to have a workout at least once a week all through the &eason, Bill Clancy has again been me- lected to act as coach of the All- Kensington baseball nine. He turned out a strong and fighting combina- tio® last season and he expects to have an even better team this com- ing year.

Did you ever look up from a short putt and notice the expression of your partner in a best ball match? Try it some time and you can get a line on the kind of a man you have picked for a playmate. This weak-minded bozo is worriel to death—and he shows it. He knows it's one of those two-foot putts for the match, caddy fees and | the refreshments. He is scared to death that you'll miss it—but glad | you've got to putt it. Two-man matches provide some of the best golf competition imag- inable. They do more to promote better fellowship than apy kind of competition. This style of competi- | tion puts the proper pressure on your game. Be sure you are giving your part- ner the right kind of support; oth- erwise these two-man matches can be as disagreeable as they are popu- lar if one member of the team gets to throwing clubs. There is nothing quite as dis- agreeable as playing with a poor loser. The kind of a fellow who minses a shot and then starts throw- ing clubs, or the man who, when you miss a short putt or two. gets careless and takes the attitude of “Well, if T've got to do it all alone, what's the une?" Develop into a popular, reliable partner who doesn't expect his part- ner to “carry him” and is willing to take the hreaks as they come. i SIGNS FOR BOUT New York.

Until a few Yankee pitchers start to show Hoytian tendencies, how- ever, Hugginy may find a greas many high hurdles blocking the road to his fourth straight American League pennant. The American League season of 1929 is two weeks old today and the champion Yankees, with a record of five victories and four defeats, are lodged in third place instead of be- ing out in front, as so many expect- ed. To make matters worse, Yankers are having more than their share of srouble with the Philadel- phia Athletics—the one team Babe Ruth, and Co. was “sure” of winning from.
