With Savannah play ing the leading role for the game up to that point, the grandstand finish which left the spectators gasping, served to emphasize the point agreed upon by critics, and that is, never let down with the Jacksonville club. Featured by the stick work of Ed die Moore, the speedy little shortstop of the Tribe who collected three ov.t of four, Savnanah, was in the black until Bob Harris turned his ankle and had to retire in favor of Lowe. This little southpaw couldn’t bear down enough to take the measure of the Jacksonville aggregation, and in the last half of the ninth, the Tars pushed across enough runs to eke out ahead of the Indians. Babe Ganzel, Rie highly valuable player-manager oi the Tars, in his first time up hit a grounder to Moore and then collapsed at the plate, with muscles torn in his right side. A doc tor being summoned by the umpire, a hasty examination was made and declared not serious, and Ganzel re tired from the game, giving his posi tion over to Dunbar who came in from left field. Walker, a substitute gang out to that position. Savannah got away to a fine start in the second inning when McNeil singled, going down to second when Zupanic followed him with a hard grounder through second. Hargrove then lined one to second base, was thrown out but the elongated McNeil came home for the initial run. Jack sonville duplicated this run in their half of the third when Smith scored on a crashing single off Stratton, the hard hitting right fielder of the lars. In their half of the third, Savannah put Harris and Moore on the tacks by their hitting single ,s Thomas caught a fast one through the cen ter of the plate and got a double, scoring Harris. McNeil hit a slow grounder to third, was thrown out, but scored Moore for the two runs of this inning. Jacksonville then came beak when Fiarito scored on a fluke play. Jack sonville scored two more runs in the * first half of the fifth when Leitz and Stratton scored, mainly by virtue of a triple by Leitz when Stratton ■walked. Savannah got back this de linquency when they scored three runs in their half of the seventh when West singled, going down wh?n Harris bunted. Moore, then got on by an error on Dunbar at third, fill ing the bases. Hines doubled scor ing West and Harris .and was fol lowered by McNeil who hit a long fly | GOLF I FACTS ; NOT THEORIES/ 4/* ALEX. J.

ADMCJE TO -AoMeS WSUEADIMOi \ • Number 910 s ALEX MORRISON says: < Among the many explanations for Bobby Jones’ high scores re cently was a tip' from his friend, Tommy Armour. Tommy to’d . him that he should shorten his swing, that he was getting into (trouble through making a long jbackswing. | This tip is misleading. In the first place a full backswing never causes trouble. It’s the things done after making the backswing i that spoil a shot. For example, ’ you may feel that you have taken J the club back too far and your anxiety will cause you to lift your J head, allow it to turn forward in i the downswing. Obviously the fault lies with your head, not the backswing. Perhaps the best reason a full swmg can’t do you any harm is the fact that action is the surest > way to overcoming tension. This .point about action is an absolute ! rule* one that applies to every one, regardless of age or size. The greatest advantage Bobby Jones held over the field was his full free swing, and he knew it. Many I times he won by letting out in stead of cutting down. > i Next? ' Weekly Exercise No. 7. JACKET AND “Y” SWIMMERS HOLD ■ LAST WORKOUTS With both camps set for tomor row’s meet In the Hotel DeSoto > Stars and the “Y” aggregation go ! pool, the Savannah High Tank I into their final day of practice with the hopes of a setback for 1 each club in the first meet of the 1 season. Sam Williams, coach for i the Savannah High squad is very ; optimistic that his clnb will take the measure of the boys from his building, and though there are only • five swimmers representing the Y they are not to be reckoned with too lightly because their list includes, Bowyer, Reese, Anderson, Powell and Rhode. With years of experience behind this quintet, the way is going to be tough for the boys from the Northside institu tion. Boasting such names as Mc- Kenna and Bragg, the Bluejacket squad is especially strong in the diving and breast-stroke events. Weak though, in th efree style races. William’s boys hope to make up for this in their other races. With the meet scheduled for 8:30, the public is asked to be there early in order that the meet may be ahle to start on time be cause of the pool being closed after the meet.

The game was history in the first half of the ninth when through a perfect barrage of hits eff Lowe, when Strat ton. Thomas and Leitz scored. Sa vannah failed in their half of the stanza, and the game was over. Hones, the speedy Statesboro youth who hailed from the Teacher’s college further augumented his playing sea son for the Indians, by the sterling performance that he gave yesterday. MVsing not a single ball, ths chunky little fellow, handled every chance and then doubled with the bases loaded for two of Savannah’s runs.

Hank had an off-year in the Southern, for his mark of .288 is below his normal gait, and had he been a little heftier with the club he might have won the utility job from Andy Reese of Memphis. After starring in high school and semi-pro circles of Chicago, North Platte of the Nebraska State Lea gue offered Hank a contract in 1932, and the youngster snapped it up. He was a big shot at third base his first year, and won the job on the all-star team without any fuss. Unfortunately, the lea gue statistician omitted his name from the records, but last available figures showed him batting .376 and leading in triples with 14. Graduating to Zanesville of the Middle Atlantic League for 1933, he topped the loop in hitting at several stages of the race and wound up with .328.. His work, both as an infielder and outfielder, won him the berth on the all-star team as utility player. Next season he batted .310 and again found his name on the all star team in the utility slot Zanes ville won the pennant both those years and Hank played important roles in the title series. In 1933 he was tied for the best record in driving in runs, and batted .300 in the play-off series. Three all-star teams and two pennants are a lot of honors crow ded into Hanks comparatively short career. He's not such a big fellow, less than five feet, eight filly won the race from a field of nine probable Derby and Preakness candidates. Delphinium (2) is second, Grand Slam, third.

THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 193 G FLOATING LIBRARY USED TO SERVE RESIDENTS ALONG YAZOO RIVER I MOBILE, Ala., April 22 (TP).— The reading public of Leflore coun ty, Miss., are now taking a stroll to the river for their favorite newspa per, magazine or book. A young lady WFA library worker sought a method by which she could reach residents along the banks of the Yazoo river. The district is not approachable by highway. The enterprising librarian fitted up a small river houseboat, and piled it high with reading material. Daily she plies the stream, and daily her list of customers grows. To many of the natives it offers the first oppor tunity they have ever had of seeing a daily paper regularly. It’s made the “book lady” one of the most im portant personages on the Yazoo. inches in height and weighing 160, but he carries his diamond honors well. This year, Manager Ganzel of the Tars plans to convert him into a shortstop and he’ll probably make a go of it. Hank fits any where, so as it is baseball. Fiarito was ’ rn on Christmas day, 1914. in th& windy city of Chi cago. Had therei been a stocking hanging up for him’ on the mantle of the Fiarito home, little Hank would have wailed long and loud < had it not been filled with baseball parapharnalia, for the game al t ways has been his ruling passion. He also played some football and basketball in high, but the diamond sport comes first, last and midway for the little Italian who is such a dandy fellow to have around a i ball club.

Flavor of Oyster The flavor of green oysters in unim pared when the color is due to the abundance of diatoms in the diet, and the oyesters in consequence of the rich diet are usually of good quality Coper, which tends to turn the whole body green if it is present in excess, changes the flavor and is not thought to be disirable. No method or con troling the color of oysters is known. ll.vr- - .i-4B lb 4 «nifafcnniih m .

A Nuka Bay miner named Charles Goyne is asking government oficlals io do something about the slaughter of wilverines by hunters. Coyne insists unless the massacre i of wilvcrinss is stopped, Alaskan tim- I ber will suffer. The miner explains it this way. The wolverine is the only animal which ■ deesnt hit for parts unknown when 'he runs up against a uorcupine. Wolv : erines like porcupine meat and they have developed a painless method of getting past that formidable quill arm- ’ or plate that the ‘ porkies'’ carry. | However, with the decrease in wolve rines, thrre is a corresponding increase lin porcupines. These animals, says Goyne, are ruining much forest grow th by gnawing at the tender bark of • young saplings.
