Rickey, chairman of the board of governors of the Shuttle Meadow club, donated for the 1929 cup event now stands beside the other golfing trophies in Howard 8. Humphrey's den. He took it hom Sunday after beating Ted Hart in a 36-hole finals match. Saturday afternoon both players tuned up their games in the “lzzy Special” tournament, where the least number of putts captured the prizs. Hart was on top of his game and shot a 69, to tie the amateur recori of the course. He had enough ouec- putt greens to easily win first placs. His display of excellent golf mad- it | look like tough going for Mr. Hum- phrey the following day. But Howard bided his time and | took it easy Saturday, saving his best golf for Sunday.

Yesterday's hero — Ray Benge, Phillies pitcher. who fanned 13 Cubs, allowed only five hits and paved the | way for Philadelphia's 7 to 2 tri- umph at Chicago. = Last inning ralli fell short in both games and the Cardinals lost both ends of a double header to the Boston Braves at St. Louis, 9 to % and 6 to 5. In the first game the Cardinals scored two runs in the last of the ninth but faltered with the tying run on base. In the second they did exactly the same after scoring four runs. Pittsburgh split a double header at Cincinnati when Burleigh Grimes lost his first game of the season. The Pirates took the first contest. 8 to 3 and sent Grimes to the box in the second. Burleigh, despite his 10 con- secutive victories was unable to hold the Reds and lost. § to 1. New York and Brooklyn returned east for a game at the Flatbush park and the Giants smothered the Robins 11 .to 4. C€arl Hubbell held Robins to six hits. “wlesco~scocesrmcoof w The New York Yanks gained a game of the league leading Ath- letics by defeating the Detroit Tige 11 to 7, at New York. The game was a free hitting affair, the Yanks totaling 17 safe blows to 15 for tbe Tigers. The A's played at Cleveland and their six game winning streak was snapped when the Indians nosed them out in a close contest, 10 to 9. The 8t. Louis Browns checked Boston, § to 3. at Boston. Kimsey pitched for the Browns and was in- vincible until the eighth when he al- lowed three consecutive hits and was replaced by Crowder. Firpo Marberry held the Chicago White 8ox to five hits and W ington won a § to 3 decision at Washington. Ted Lyons. who start- ed for the Box batted in two runs and Watwood's homer accounted for the third. READ WERALD CLASSIFTED ADS i FOR BEST RESULTS the | him to win.

If | he now could take the President's | cup event he would establish a re: ord at Shuttle Meadow. Even for a | low handicap man to go to the finals | is unusual. To get there he had to win from two youngsters who ure playing a good brand of golf. Both Len Morse and Cliff Parker carri:d Ted to the 20th hole before the champion clinched his matches. Humphrey didn't have a difficult task until he tackled Ernest Ba!d- win, who had just eliminated Clar- ence Manning. Howard won match on the 1S§th green, with tho ? |clubhouse on fire. Early yesterday the finalists drove down forenoon. hot fairways and putted on sizzling greens. But conditions just suited Mr. Humphrey and when the first 18 | holes were finished. the card showed | him seven up, due to his brilliant 75 | qiy1" and his six stroke handicap. shot 78. After dinner and a little rest the contestants started out to finish the grind. With his lead, Howard not have to exert himself until e played the 16th hole. There he was only one up and when Hart got a birdie, Humphrey had to sink a mean putt on the temporary green for a three to keep his advantige. He rose to the crisis and with a stroke on each of the last two holes he finished one up on the 36th green. final hole by shooting a 73. HENSINGTON TEAM WINS AND LOSES South Enders Beaten in Mystic Saturday—Defeat Winsted ‘The Kensington baseball club broke even in its games played over the week-end, losing Saturday to the Mystic club three to two, and shutting out the Gilbert Clock team of Winsied on Sunday three fo nothing. The game played Saturday 1n Mystic was full of thrills from start to finish, the thrills being furnish. ed mostly by the umpires who cer- | tainly gave the Kensington team the worst deal that it has ever had in ita several years of playing baseball. Kensington started the scoring |ll the first inning on singles by Mikan and 8chnieder. a sacrifice by Cramer and a double by Huband. This also | finished the scoring for Kensington. In the sixth, seventh and eighth in- nings men were in scoring positions but due to faulty work of the um- pires they were not successful in pushing any more runs across. The hitting of Schnieder, Huband and Mikan featured for Kensington, with DeVite turning in a nice game at short. For Mystic. Barraclough and Walsh featured with the stick while the work of Burnham at second base was of sensational variety. Sunday’s game was as nice a ball xame as anybody would care to sec. The visiting team. which was com- SALESMAN SAM did | Ted carried the fight to the | i | | | that | the scorching | Mikan, Ted Scriminger, | |left feld. Cramer sent him to third {first man-up in this inning walked. | Victor 2, semi- m-o‘ posed of the best, semi-pro players in Winsted, lived up to its reputation as a snappy ball club, extending the locals to the limit at all times. The hitting of Victor and Beebe for Winsted featured with Healy and Victor turning in a nice game in the infleld. Heath's work in the out- fleld, where he made several catches which meant runs for the locals. was very good. For the locals the work of Schnie- der and Cramer at the bat was ex- ceptionally good. Schnieder getting four out of four. DeVito agan turned in a nice game at short. Winsted started off us if it meant business in the first inning. The visitors connected for two safe hits, but at this point Pechuk started to bear down and fanned the last two batters. Kensington started its scor- ing in its half of the first inning. After Mikan had grounded ou:, Schnieder shot a clean single into on a beautiful double to left. Schnis- der scored on Huband's infleld out and Cramer <%cored when Palm threw wild trying to get Schnieder at home. There was no more scor- ing until the seventh when Gill the He advanced to second on Pechuk's single through short. The work of Pechuk in the box | |tor the locals was certainly a pleas- | |ure to watch, when time after time | he struck out two men with run- |ners on bases. In all he had eleven strikeouts which is considered a | pretty good days work for any pitch- er. On Saturday, June 22, the Ken- sington team will journey to Tart- ville to play the Taftville A. C. The players will leave the Hotel Stanley at 12 o'clock sharp: There is a pos- sibility that a game may be arrang- ed for Sunday to be played in Jew- ett City. This is only tentative, as the local management has not yot made the final arrangements.
