By VERNE WICKHAM Jf you took a shovel or a hoe down into a trap and used it to smooth the sand »o0 you could have A.. square shot at the ball, you couldn’t hurt a real goifer's sensi- bilities any more than grounding your. club in the trap and smooth- ing out the sand back of the ball. You'll see lota of golfers smooth- ing the sand with their ciubs while addressing the ball. They will drop the club just back of the ball and scrape a nice trough up to the ball and then “smack” out she comes onte the green followed by the golf- er with a big grin on his face as it Using a wooden tee in the trap couldn’t be much worse. The rule is very plain on this breach and the penalty is lgss of the hole in match $lay. Here's the rule: “When & ball lies in or touches a hazard, nothing shall be done which can in any way improve its lic; the club shall not touch the ground. nor shall anything be touched or moved hefo the player strikes at the ball. The golfer who improves his lie in the trap usually alibis himself by insisting that he should not be penal ized because some dub left a heel print in the trap. Remember one should’'nt be in the traps. They are put there to penalize bad shots. Don’t beat the game by improving your lie in the hazards. When you leave the trap, smooth your own Feels marks out evenly.

The first. game will be called at o'clock daylight saving time. Happenings of the week-end make a shift necéssary, but right now Heinie Groh plans to use Pitchers Brown and Manfredi against the in- vaders from Pennsylvania. Brownie has been going at a good clip and Manfredi, -who was pur- chased last week from Jersey Clity, made a fine impression W he workd three innings against Provi- dence at Hartford of Wednesday. Manfredi is the former N. V. 1. star. He pitched against Hartford for the Yankees in the exhibition game here last summer, sporting the assumed name of Manners. The col- lege authorities got wind of it and Johnny was barred from baseball at N. Y. U. He is a southpaw with a good fast ball and a fine assortment | of curves. Manager Groh, operafed upon last week for an infection of the arm, has returned to the lineup his presence is refl dash of the Sen center giving Bill Hohman. Hartford fielder, whose hitting was Manager Groh some worry in the pre-season training, is the batting scnsation of the Hartford club. Wed- nesday he drove in six runs to give Hartford a 6-3 victory, and:Thurs- day his homer, with a man on, gave Hartford its 2-1 win over the league leading Providence club. President Farrell has sent a wire to Shortstop “Hap” Briscoe, who has failed to report. or to send any word of his plans, telling the hard- hitting infielder, for whom Hartford paid $3.000, to either report at once or declare that he does not intend to report. Briscoe is the athletic di- rector in an Illinois high sehool and evidently is trying to round.out the school year before reporting. Harry Albers, the infielder recom- mended by Bill Kopf. New Britain boy and former Braves and Cincin- nati star. has been released. He is a second bageman and there was not a apot for him in the Hartford infield under the existing situation. Twilight ball has caught on well and it is expected that:when warmer weather comes big crowds will see the 6 o’clock games. The plan of ad- mitting women and children free has proved a popular move.

Boston, May 17 (UP)—Pupil tri- umphed over teacher here last night {whan “Dynamite” Gus Sonnenberg successfully defended his world's heav Wt wrestling title against Joe De Vito of Providence, R. I. at the Boston Arena. De Vito, who taught the former | youthful Dartmouth football star much of what he knows of the mat game, proved a fairly stubborn foe, but he was unable to prevent the champion from winning in his cus- tomary straight falls. | Fifteen minutes after the bout got junder way. De Vito applied a double toe hold which caused Sonnenberg considerable trouble. The champion squirmed loose, however. and, using his famous flying tackle, downed the challenger for the first fall in 45 minutes, 19 seconds. A series of beal holds had. made Sonnenberg grogsy, and he resorted 1o the inspiration of smelling salts before resuming the hattle. The second fall came in uets, also the resuit of a tackle. 15 min- fying | | | |BOMB DAMAGES FOURTH FLOOR ROOM IN HOTEL Appavently Thrown Through Win- | | | dow, Esplosive Goes Off in Room of Pullman Porter, ay 17 (#—A bomb ex- y today on the raur%’ floor of the Trefier hotel, home an gathering place of negro politicians.
