OLF OA COPYRIGNT 1929 BV MEA SERVICE WG Mr. Bangs' caddy has taken mat- ters in his own hapnds in an effort 10 put a stop to the scolding he has been getting all day from the grouchy old geezer. No matter where he stood. what he did, which club he handed Bangs or what he said, it was all wrong and he finally decided 1o do a little “dynamiting" of his own. There is an ever-growing fecling among golfers in general that it is all wrong to awear and curse at the lads who are carrying the sticks. Many irritable golfers take their grouches out on the caddies. Thte youth packing your bag of clubs 18 forming his ide for life. You'll ind him copying every good golfer in the club. He patterns his iron shots from the professional; he uses the wonds like the club cham- pion; he tries to putt like the best putter in the club. It is only natural lo suppese he is patterning his green and tee behavior after the golfers he packs for. Caddies in practically every club are well trained, but if you do run across one who doesn’t seem to do anything right—send him in; don't treat him as if he was a donkey. Better still, tell him the right way 1o act in a proper manner; then, if he continues to do wrong, send him in to the y master. Don't swear, tell oft-color jokes, drink liquor or talk over your bets in front of the caddies. You wouldn't do it in front of your own sons. The lad packing your sticks will be & man tomorrow — treat him human!

RAY KEEGH WL RECEIVE AWARDS Drivers in Auto Speed Classic to Be Banqueted Tonight Indianapelis, Ind., May 31 (P— Approximately $40,000 in cash and several trophies will be given Ray Keech, Philadelphia, at a banquet here tonight for having won the seventeenth annual 500 mile aute- mobile race yesterday at the speed- way. Each of the 33 pilots who started in the race wiil receive some por- tion of the $101,500 purse regardless of his position at the end. The racers were shocked at the accident which resulted in the death of Bill Spence of Los Angeles who died from a fractured skull a short time after his car had turned over early in the contest. It was the first fatality on the local track in ten years. Louis Meyer, High Gate, Cal. the 1928 American driving cham- pion, who finished second yesterday, will receive about $19.000 and Jim- my Gleason of Philadelphia, third, abeut $7,000 in cash. Others who will get large shares of the money are Carl Marchese, Kansas City, who was fourth; Speed Gardner, Philadelphia, fifth; Fred Winnal, Philadelphia, sixth; Louis Chiron, Paris, France, seventh; Billy Arnold, Chicago, eighth: Cliff Ber- gere, Los Angeles, ninth, and Fred Frame who was tenth. Deacon Litz, Dubois. Pa.. who was in the lead for 122 miles but whos» car was wrecked when it hed off the track, won $4,900 in lap prize and Lou Moore, whose car broke down five miles from the finish when he wai two laps ahead of all others for second place, won §2,300 in lap money. In addition to winning a fortuue by his clever driving, Keech gather- ed 1,000 points toward the 1929 driving championship. Yesterday's race was one of more than the usual thrills. It kept the record crowd of 160,000 on its feet much of the time. Broken wheels and steering assemblies, crashes into the walls and overturping cars threatened the lives of a half dozen drivers but all excepting Spence va- caped with bruises. The average apeed of the winning 5§85 miles per hour—was a nt to many who pre- dicted the 91 1-2 cubic inches piston displacement motors in their final whirl around the speedway would shatter Peter De Paolo's record of 101.13 miles per hour, made in 1935, There were only twelve of the 33 starters running at the finish. The poor showing of the faverite drivers and the failure of the twelve front drive type of racers to do anything created surprise. The best a front drive could do was to finish ninth, Heavy feoted Leon Duray, Clift Woodbury, Peter De Paolo, Peter Krels, Bob McDonough and Ralph Hepburn—all famed for past per- formances failed te finish, With the completion of the race, the single seater car with its miniu- ture power plant passed, at least temporarily. Mechanics will ride with the drivers mext year and the motors will be four times as large as the present type. Superchargers and additional! carbu rs will not be permitted on the 1930 cars. HENSINGTON WINS BY A BIG SCORE Swamps Hartfod Rod Sox in Memorial Day Baseball Game The Kensington baseball team had no trouble in defeating the Hartford Red Box, 22-3 on Memorial Day at the Percival avenue grounds. The Red Box used three pitehers to try and stop the hitting of the locals but they were not successful. Huggy Carlson making his second start for the locals pitched a nice game, keep- ing the visitors eleven hits pretty well scattered. not a run was scored off him until the seventh inning when he let up on his pitching due to the heat. “Chief” Barry, the Babe Ruth of the locals hit another homer, which cleared the brook by twenty feet, DeVito's work at short was excep- tionally good, as was the work of Miken at second. Mikan set a mark for local semi-pro players to shoot at when he crossed the plate six times in yesterday's game. Cramer and McCormick led the local hitters with three apiece. For the Red Sox the playing of Bouvier, 8tanley and B. Bockus fea- tured, with Bouvier playing a nice game at second. On Bunday on the Percival avenue grounds the locals will take on the Westville A. C. This is the team that conquered the Falcons last 8un- day at St. Mary's field. They are compored of some of the best play- ers in New Haven and will use Bucholts on the mound with Lawson doing the catching. The rest of the lineup will be the same as that which played against the Falcons. On Sunday June 9th the locals will have one of the best attractions of the season when the atrong Mystic club will appear at the local field. This ia the club that turned back Johnny Tobin's boys a few weeks 8§0. The summary:: HARTFORD JhED sox R.

Corbin 1 Fatpir ........ 1 Stanley Works. 1 Paper Goods... 1 N. B. Machine. Stanley Rule.. L] LJ New Britain Machine proved u worthy foe for the P. & F. Cerbin beseball team in an Industrial league game played at Walnut Hill park Wednesday night but the heavy hit- ting sally of the Lockmakers in the eighth and ninth innings, proved the breaking point in one of the tight- est games seen in the circuit in some years. Up to the eighth fram=, Corbins had led by a 1 to 0 ceuut, having scored in the frst inning. The Newmatics had threatened in the seventh but were shut out with. out @ run. Corbins won the game by a 5 to 1 score, It was a pitcher's battle between Gray for P. & F. and Erny Ander- son, mainstay of the Newmatics with Gray having a decided edge. Gray, using a nice hook and a low fast ball, sent the Newmatics back in order in the first four innings. He got wonderful support from hus mates. In the fifth, “Happy” Haines slapped out a single but failed 1o get past first. The Newmatics got two hits in the seventh, both of them singles, but failed to score. A walk, a passed ball and. a single gave them a run in the eighth but though Erny Anderson singled in the ninth and got to second, he died there without scoring. Two triples, one by “Goodic” Preisser and the other by Mickey Haber, gave P. & F. a one run lead in the first inning. The team got seven more hits in the next six in- nings but couldn’t deliver any scorcs. Wright got a triple in the seconi but died on third and Jasper dou- bled in the fifth but was kept on second. In the eighth inning after Haber had gone out third to first, Bates singled past first. He went to third on Jagloskl's single to right. Heinz- mann was on on a fielder's choice as Eddie Preisser threw out Bates at home but a double by Wright to right fleld brought the two men home. Two more were scored in the ninth when Hugo Anderson drop- ped a throw to first to get Jasper. Jasper stole second and went to third on Patrus’ sacrifice fly to right fleld. Haber singled scoring Jasper. Mickey then stole second. Bates sent out another single and Haber scor- ed. Bates stole second but took the long count there. ) Bome feature plays were turned in during the game. Kasprow in right fleld for the Newmatics, made a pretty running catch of a fly past the right fleld foul line by Bates while Mickey Haber stopped a pos- sible home run by spearing a long drive oft H. Anderson's bat. Both teams executed pretty double play: The Corbin team got a total of 14 hits but they were well scattered throughout the nine frames. The Newmatics slapped out five bingles. Gray and Anderson both worked nicely in the pinches and gave the crowd of fans a good night of pleus- ure. The game was finished despite a shert and snappy thunder shower. The summary: P. & F.
