The Robins clouted the offerings of the veteran Babe Adams for six singles, a pair of two-baggers and a three-bagger, but poor base running prevented the Flatbush Clan from scor- ing in the third and the ninth. In the third Olson attempted to score all the way from first on Ward's single and was an easy victim at the plate, In the ninth Kilduff tripled, but foolishly tried to stretch the drive into a home run. ‘The lone run of the game came in the fourth inning, with onetchy driv ing it over the piate. Adams got him- self in trouble in this inning by passing Johnston. Wheat essayed to knock the ball out of the lot, but only succeeded in batting the cool atmosphere. Myers hit a wicked grounder at Grimm, the Pirates’ new first baseman. Grimm threw to Caton at second and the shortstop shot the ball back to first {or what looked like a double play, But Myers was the only one declared out, as the umpire ruled that Caton had his foot off second when he caught Grimm's throw. Konetehy followed with @ crashing, double down right foul line and Johnston raced over the plate. Kilduff walked and Miller beat a hit, Come-Back of Jerry Travers . Four-Time Holder of National Amateur Title Now Staging a Return to the Links. By William Abbott. N unexpected figure is looming up on the horizon of amo golf—Jerry Travers. Jer ready is staging a quiet comeback on the Uifks after a three-years' ab-| genes. The four-time holder of the National title makes no sécret of the fact he'll play a “lot of golf” this season, Just how much this decision | will figure In the outcome of cham- pionships will hinge mostly on how quickly Jerry recovers his former mastery, the. game that was supreme (6r many years among American amateurs, “comeback” stunt shouldn't be highly successful. The Upper Montclair golfer is now only in his middie thir- tles, and two or three weeks of steady, golf should come near making his game as good as ever. Once again in battling form Travers would prove a tough bunker for the ultimate win- ner of the 1920 National title, ‘Travers won the open championship at Baltusrol in 1916, ‘That was his last big tournament.
