The Herald baseball team took a proper shellacking from Te ders Kil- duft’s City Hali crew last night. The acore, it the scorekeeper counted them all, was 27 to 3. This was the Herald team’s final game. Can any- body guess why? Two good games are scheduled to be played tonight in' the Industrial Naseball League. The Corbin-Fafnir battle on Diamond No. 1 at Walnut Hill park is the outstanding game on the program aithough the Ameri- ean Paper Goods-New ®ritain Ma- chine game on Diamond 2 should also be & scrap worth secing.

CHIP SHOTS By Jigger Match play golf demands more fighting spirit. than the non-player realizes. 1t crops out in Hagen to a remarkable degree, Compston gave him the trimming of his life last year before the British Open but the Halg licked his rival in the big match. Last week Compston beat Walter 8-7 in their first match and then Baturday Hagen evened up mat- ters by winning a 36 hole match on the last hole after being down most of the day. In atroke competition, where a man is fighting against himself, the pressure may demand even more of the will-to-win stuff.” There was a splendid display of it in the quali- fying round of the President's Cup event at Shuttle Meadow. A good player got off to a bad atart, He scored one over par on each of the first six holes. On the severlth he drove ‘into a ‘trap at the 150 yard mark. It is a difficult par § hole. But he did not give up. His fourth was on the green and he got bis first good break by running down a long putt. He finished up with- a 44 and by the law of rages he ought to have had a fairly easy time on the second nine. But he continued to make weird shots that would have discouraged any golfer lacking in fighting spirit. His recoveries and another long putt that holed out for & par just let him in to play for the President’s Cup. A correspondent writes: “In re- gard to how Hagen or Jones might score with the old gutta ball—they would be able to come within six er seven strokes of their ordinary scores, playing with it on a modern course. Freddie Tate, one of the old time. British champions, drove a gutta 305 yards.” That's long enough to satisfy the Mmodern goifer. But the record for the lively ball is much farther. A hole-in-one is on record at 365 yards. . Thursday, the Connecticut Senior Golf association will play at Shuttle Meadow. Golfers over 55 years of age make up the membership of the ganization. Friday, trafic men will be en- tertained at the club with the presidents of the Pennsylvania and New Haven ilroad systems as guests.

Los Angeles, June ¢ (M—Jack Dempsey, former world's heavy- weight boxing champion, was called upon today to make up his mind whetlier to return to the boxing ring. | Gene Normile, former manager of the ex-champion, stood sponsor for a meeting this afternoon between | Dempsey and two officials of the Agua Caliente corporation, which has amusement conceasion privileges at that little town just south of the | Mexican border. ! While declining to reveal details of the offer to be made Dempsey, | Normile said 1t entailed “the biggest money the former champion ever has received in his life.” He scemed to think Dempasey's decision would settle definitely the question of his possible comeback. All Dempsey would say in advanca of the conference was that he would fight again “if the money is there” and If a suitable opponent were pro- vided. He said he was feeling fine, and prepared to go back to the ring it the proper inducements ar: made.” RUTH IN HOSPITAL Babe Will be Kept Out of Yankee Lineup for Probably a Weck with Severe Cold.

(,OLF OA ’ BY VERNE WICKHAM 7 One of the iron-bdund rules of Bolf is this—"Don’t carry your golf bag on the green.” Naturally, this golfer is all wrong.

The proper method is to drep your bag on the side of the green nearest the next tee; putter from the bag walk onto the green, Picture a little diagram showing a small map of a green' and tee. Walk up the ~falrway following the arrow and drop the bag be. tween the green and the next tee in the spot marked X. Don't ever drop the bag on the area shaded in the map—or on the green. By a little head work when yoi approach the green, you can save yourself many ateps. But putting the bag on the proper side of th: green you eliminate the necessity of crossing and re-crossing the green, When you drag your golf bag across the green, you ruff and muss up the grass and do a cer- tain amount of damage to the green. The putting surface is a treasure to the greenskeeper ani the greens committee and when you drag a golf bag across tha green you are causing some other golfer a missed putt, Drag your bag across a sand !green sometimes and you'll appre- ciate why it is against all go!f etiquet and rules to take or drag your golf bag over the greens. he take your and then MAY GO TO ENGLAND Rumor has it that the California crew, if it wins at Poughkeepsie this season, will be invited to England for the Henley regatta.

SALESMAN SAM After a season of disappointments, during which they were the victims of a po-hit-no-run gameo several one-sided defeats and a loss of the first game to Hartford High, the New Britain High baseball players came through Jast night to defeat Hartford High. The game was played at Willow Frook Park and the final score waus 8 to 2. Up until the sixth inning Hartford falled to connect for a hit @nd it began to look as if “Hermy" Schmarr would reach the hall of fame with a no-hit, no-run game. Captain ‘S8horty’ 8hortell of Hartford spoiled it all with & poke Into center field in this frame. He proved hw was the only player on his team who could hit when he slapped another to the same &pot in the eighth in- ning. These were the only blows off Schmarr in the game. New Britain Higl heavy offen- sive attack in the early stages of the game was the thing that gave the Red and Gold team its margin of victory. During the contest the Loys connected for 11 solid hits and were in position to score scveral times. In the first inning Wesoly = was given a baze on balls, stole second ter. The Red and Gold team re- tained its margin until the second inning at which time it was in- creased to four runs. Schmarr singled to right, Osipowicz stopped at third. Bogd: i hit to Shortell who threw Osipowicz out at home plate. Ross and Bogdanski scorcd cn Wesoly's single. Potts singled to left. Mangan hit to the pitcher who failed in an at- tempt to catch Potts at second and both men were safe. Clark popped to second and in & mix-up the side was reti.ed on a double play. was in the fourth inning. inning, Ross hit to left field and Partyka scored him on a double to center. bage on balls .also ecored on Partyka's hit. Before the innmng came to a close two more runs were chased across the palte. This was all the scoring done by New Britain in the game. Whennion, Hartford pitcher, was driven from the mound in this inning. Hartford's first run was scored when the New Britain infleld be- camed. rattled in the sixth inning. Shortell made the first hit of the game, a single. He w forced at second by O'Connor who reached third on Partyka's error of Hayden's hit. Then Hayden started to walk between first and second and while the pitcher, first baseman, baseman and shortstop of the Britain team were concentrating their attention on Hayden' O'Connor slipped: down the third base line and ecored. Although Hayden was final- ly retired for the third out, the scorc was made. In the ninth :inning, Hayden rcached first on a wild throw by | ble to score on a s. For the New Britain team, the sterling all-around play of Billy Ross in right fleld and Joe Potts at first base was the feature. These two did some timely hitting. Cy Clark on second base has shown he is one of the best of the new play- | crs to join the team this year. After | pitching all’ year and taking de- feats in inany games which could have been won if the team hit in tack of him, Schmarr won his first game yesterday. He, himeclf, was the princigal factor in the victory Captain Slortell was Hartford’s best wan. He was a tower of strength at second tas The summary: NEW BRITAIN HIGH AB 1 3 Bogdanski, b .. esoly, ¢f ... 3 ka, Potts, 1b Rasa Loss, 1t ke Blaed us iy ‘w2323 usan Totale HARTFORD PUBL; SCHOOL, B PO > am J.

With two away in the second half, Ohlson and Seaberg put -hits to- gether for a Bethany run. Rockwell and Hattings singled to open the second frame, and both counted when Morey and Parker laid down squeeze bunts which sue. ceeded. Another Bethany error al. lowed Morey to cross the plate. Sea- berg walloped a lusty triple in the fourth but was cut down at the plate by Bell's lightning relay of Bomba's throw-in. In the fifth, how- ever, W. Anderson, Carlson and Swanson hit in succession to fill the bases with none out. Darrow . tonk a grounder in deep shart to retire Dahlman at first as one run scorel and Carlson stole home, and then the South Church shortstop spear- ed a liner and tossed to Parker for a double play. An error and Seaberg’s home run, on which Bomba hecame inextrica- bly tangled up and rolled arouni with his feet in the air, brought the score to 6-5 in the next inning. hur Morey checked this rally by ending the frame with a double pla™, as- sisted by Darrow and Baria.
