SUGAR HILL CLUB
WHIPS BRUNSWICK
The Savannah Sugar Refinery
baseball club evened the series witn
the hard-hitting Brunswick club yes
teday in the seacoast city when they
took the measure of the Glynn Island
boys by the score of 9 to 3. More than
making up for their defeat Saturday,
the Crystals connected with 10 safe
ties to go into a lead which was never
threatened. Led by C. Grevemberg,
who garnered two out of three at the
platter, the Sugar Hill boys connected
with the bat at will.
McGaughey, the slim right-handed
hurler, gave the Brunswick club a
total of eight hits, however, scattering
them and never allowing himself to
be placed in a hole wlih more than
two men on bases. Displaying the
same type of hurling which he used
against the Savannah Indians, Mc-
Gaughey also got a hit with two on,
scoring them and furthering adding to
his sensational work on the mound.

ROAD TRIP JINX
ENDS CONQUERING
STREAK OF LOCALS
The proverbial road trip hard luck
streak struck with a vengeance In the
damp of the Savannah Indians yes
erday when they dropped a 7-4 de
cision to the fast-stepping Jackson
ville Tars. The Floridans were never
headed once they got into the lead
and although their rookie pitching 1
star, Henry Bazner, weakened in the
eighth and was relieved by the vet
eran Lyle, the final issue of the game
was never In doubt.
Forsberg started the game for the
Tribe but was pulled out of the box
in the first Inning, when cdupled with
wildness and one hit, he allowed one
run to cross the plater. Having diffi
culty In finding the home plate, the
Mid-Western star was relieved by Bill
Gould, manager for the Indians.
Gould went nearly four Innings be
fore he was relieved by Hargrove, the
utility outfielder and pitcher. Finish
ing the game for the Tribe, Hargrove
gave up a total of four hits and one
run in the last stanzas of tre game.
Tucket, belligerent catcher for the
Indians, took up his hitting work
where he left off here Saturday in
the Augusta series, and connected
with the ball for two safeties out of
four trips to bat. One of the hits a
double, the vociferous Irishman
placed himself In a scoring position
in the fourth and came home on a
single.

LADIES TOURNEY
GETS UNDERWAY
MUNICIPAL LINKS
Getting started Thursday after
noon, the Municipal Golf Course
ladies tournament will get under
way in what promises to be one
of the leading golf sporting events
of the year. Headed by an array
of , Savannah lady golfers whose
names are well known to the fair
way critics, Frank Stevenson, und
er whose banner the tournament
is being held, is extremely optim
istic that the large field already
signed will be further augmented
SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 4, 1936
by additional entries before the
final day of registration. Wednes
day.
The matches will be played on
the first nine holes of the No. 4
course, with the finals being play
ed the full regulation 18 holes.
This being a decided innovation for
the fair sex in the city, it is hop
ed that it will meet with decided
approval on the part of the con
testants Being planned because of
the hot weather, the short matches
have been staged in other sections
of the country.
Contestants:
Mrs. I. Meddin, Mrs. Miller Kam
insky, Mrs. Alma Turner, Mrs.
Abro Robinson, Mrs. I. Wilensky.
Mrs T. W. Mrs. Frank
Spencer, Mrs. F. A. Leonard, Jr.,
Miss Dean Smith, Mrs. James
Bowden, Catherine Slater, Miss L.
Silverman.
Meanwhile on the General Ogle
thorpe golf course, the featured
match between the team of Lane
Fulenwider-Billy McWilliams and
the due of Billy Manucy and Henry
Lindner, resulted in a 3 and 2 de
feat being hung on the Manucy-Lin
der team. Shooting beautiful golf
Fulenwider and McWilliams were
never headed.
Popularity is not always a sign
of worth. For instance, a restau
rant may not be the best place in
town to eat because it has the
most flies.
CALVIN LOWE TO
TAKE MOUND FOR
TRIBE THIS P. M.
The Savannah Indians will again
get started on the ’ continuation of
their present home series today
when they take on the Columbus
Red Birds. With the game sched
uled for 3:30 it is likely that Man
ager Bill Gould will place Calvin
Lowe in the pitcher’s box for the
first game of the series. Having
had bad luck for his home ap
pearances, the southpaw hurler ton
the Tribe, hopes to make this his
first winning ball game on the
dome stamping grounds.
Making the trip to Jacksonville
yesterday where they were handed
a crushing 7-4 licking, the Indians
hope to make up for their lost
ground when they meet the league
readers today. Columbus being the
leading club for the league, it ap
pears that Savannah will more
.han have their work cut out for
them. •
Chunky J. C; Hines, the young
ster from Statesboro, whose work
tor the South Georgia Teacher’s
College has made history for the
last three years, appears to have
earned himself a berth of the third
base sack. Being able to get to
che offerings of the opposing Sally
League pitchers, this popular lit
tle player has been making sensa
tional saves on the hot corner line.
Tucker, whose belligerent attitudes
have struck a spot with Savannah
fans, promises, to make Columbus
sit up and behave when he goes
mto the batter’s box this after
noon. Getting no less than two hits
a game, the stocky square-built
catcher promises to be in the lea
gue race for batting honors.
STRONG MEN ON
BOTH SIDES OF
MAY 15TH BOUTS
Savannah’s return to tho -AAU
fistic limelight wil be inaugurated by
the Parris Island Marine Team which
will arrive in Savannah on the 15th
to do battle with the leading lights
of the city's amateur boxers.
Led by an array of fighters whose
names are known throughout service
boxing, the Leathernecks will come to
Savannah in the company of Lieut.
E. J. "Donnelly, nationally known box
ing coach wnose success with fistic
teams has been marked throughout
his career within the squared circle.
With Savannah recruiting its star
performers from the city proper,
Fort Screven and the CCC camp at
Bloomingdale/ it is hoped that the
fighting marines will receive their
first set back. Headed by* Larry
Knecht cf the army, stationed at
Fort Screven, the matches will begin
to take on the aspect of inter-service
fights. Fighting at 137 pounds, this
youngster won the Southeastern AAU
championship at Fort Benning last
year, and since that time has fought
on the AAU team from this city, on
this year’s invasion of the state of
Florida. Having feught 137 amateur
bouts, Knecht has lost only 17 fights,
showing clearly his calibre.
• Accompanying the marine team
will be Brigadier General Berkely,
commandant of the post, who Mil
bring his official staff with him, for
their first inter-city matches. A re
vival of inter-city matches is fore
cast with the probable success of this
match, and local critics state that
there is a strong possibility of having
a four corner match in the near fu
ture with Savannah, Jacksonvilel,
Charleston and Parris Island as the
contestants. If this could be arrang
ed there would be a chance of Savan
nah being awarded the 1937 South
ern AAU championship matches.

. ALEX MORRISON says:
L. B. Davis of Scarsdale, N. Y.,
writes asking about wrist action
in short swings. Mr. Davis, it
seems, is a keen student of the
game and a rather successful
player. He wants to know if
wrist action is needed in all
swings, particularly the short
ones.
The answer is, yes. The wrists
are one of the main sources of
freedom in the swing. They
make possible the blending of the
backswing and .downswing into
one smooth motion. Without wrist
action at the end of the back
swing you will jab or push the
club at the ball with tight arms
and hands. Many of the shots
you have topped or sliced could
have been hit cleanly if you had
used your wrists properly in the
backswing.
Note that I have urged you to
make use of your wrists in the
backswing. If you do this and
keep your head in position until
after impact you’ll enjoy the
proper wrist action in your down
swing.

INDIANS NARROWLY ES-
CAPE QUARANTINE FOR
SPINAL MENINGITIS
BOSTON, May 4 (TP)—The Cleve
land Indians got away from Wash
ington tonight after a narrow escape
from being quarantined.
Bruce Campbell, whose attack of
spinal, meningitis nearly condemned
the whole team to the pest house, is .
responding to treatment in St. Eliza
beth’s hospital. His mother arrived
from Chicago to be with him during
his ilness.
The present attack is Campbell’s
third in 10 months. Although the
player is a star in the outfield, Man
ager O’Neil said after Cleveland’s 7
to 3 victory over the Boston Red
Sox, that he would advise Campbell
to quit baseball. The manager thinks
the game increases the outfielder’s
tendency to suffer the spinal menin
gitis attacks.
