INDIANS HOPE TO MAKE IT THREE
STRAIGHT IN GAME AGAINST THE
PEACHES AT STADIUM TODAY
CHEERED BY MONDAY’S
9 TO 1 VICTORY TRIBE
ARE ON WARPATH
The Savannah Indians hopes of
making it three {Straight over the Ma
con Peaches will receive its best to
day at the stadium in a game sched
uled for 4 o’clock.
With HIM Gould, ex-manager of
the Tribe, likely to take the mound,
the locate hope, by this victory, to
move into fourth place in tha league
standings. In licking the high flying
Peaches yesterday the Indians clearly
displayed their hitting prowess, and
Savannah’s chances of climbing into
the first division are increasing
steadily.
The Savannah club went to town
yesterday when they took the highly
touted Maeon Peaches over the
hurdles to the tune of 9-1. Showing
thatthey had baseball in their sys
tem, the Tribe lambasted a total of
15 hits off the combined hurling of
two Macon aces, I .terkolfen and
Honeycutt, to creep within one-half
game of fourth place behind the
Peaches.
Led by Levy
Led by genial Jake Levy, the old
mestro of the mound, the Indians
scored runs in every inning with the
exception of second and fourth to
make the route complete. Getting go
ing in the first stanza when Moore,
Lunak and Etten scored as a result
of two doubles and two singles by
their teammates, and again stepping
on the gas in the third inning when
two more runs crossed the platter
when Colbem and Elliott scored as
results of singles by Hilcher and mis
cues on the part of the Macon field
ers. The rest of the game proved to
be a farce with the Indians being
able to rap the ball at will and scor
ing in practically every inning.
Etten, the heavy-set rightfielder
from the Scranton club, showed his
batting honors yesterday when he got
three out of four with a homer, dou
ble and a single, going into his bat
ting averages. Knocking a homer with
no one aboard, the quiet-spoken gard
ener slammed the ball clean over the
rightfield bleachers for the longest
ball hit by a player this season. Play
ing in the outfield sensationally, the
Northern player should prove an as
set to the titula - hopes of the In
dians. «
Double Play Trio
Functioning perfectly, the Colbern
to Moore to Hilcher double play com
bination. broke up scoring threats of
the Peaches in two innings when with
one away and one man on first, they
got their hands on the ball and broke
up the Inning.
The Tribe looked like a ball club
yesterday as they stepped into the
ball and whanged it to the four cor
ners of the lot for the total of 15
hits. Jake Levy allowed five hits and
had the Peaches eating out of his
hand all afternoon.

ATTEMPT LOWER
LOCAL RECORDS
CITY SWIMMING TEAM TO
GIVE EXHIBITION HERE
TUESDAY NIGHT
Savannahians who have not had
the opportunity of witnessing the per
formance of the Savannah swimming
team will have their chance Tuesday
night when the entire team performs
in the formal opening of the Hotel
DeSoto. To display their wares in a
series of exhibition swims and diving
events, the newly organized team
of former Y stars and high school
swimmers, will take the water in an
effort to lower some of the existing
local records in their first time
trials-
Little being known of the actual
performances of the team, the ag
gregation under the coaching of Sam
uel Rhode, Jr., will open its official
season against the Sea Island club
in a meet to be held in Brunswick
of the 7th of June. Coming here a
week later the Savannah boys will
have a return engagement with the
team coached by Capt. Lindsey. A
duo of meets have been scvheduled
for the month of July with the
Leatherneck aggregation from Parris
Island, and it is from this team that
Mr. Rhode is expecting the strongest
opposition to the titular hopes of the
locals.
A captain not having been chosen
yet, this very essential duty will be
taken care of before the formal open
ing of the DeSoto, and will be an
nounced at the occasion. John Mc-
Kenna, J. B. Holst, Buddy Reese and
Sonny Bragg have been announced
as possible candidates for the job,
and the selection of any of this quar
tet of stars, will prove a decided as
set to the workings of Savannahs
team.
HELEN TO EXHIBIT
ART-NOT RACQUETS
NEW YORK, May 19 (TP).—An
exhibition by Helen Wills Moody will
open today in New York—but the ex
hibition will take place in a mid-town
art gallery, rather than in the more
familiar setting of the Forest Hills
tennis courts.
Mrs. Moody, winner of last year’s
Wimbledon tennis titue, is opening
her first one-man exhibition of oil
paintings. The works, chiefly ssill
life, wil be shown at the Grand Cen
tral Art Galleries
Mrs. Moody told interviewers that
she has made no plans for the forth
comin..g tennis .season and intends
to make none until her exhibition is
over. She refused to ray wnether or
not she would be a contender for this
year’s Wimbledon tournament, the
Wightman cup matches or the Wom
en’s National matches at Forest Hills.

TOMMY LOUGHRAN
By Central Press
THE GREATSET defensive obxer
seen in the last 25 years is Tommy
Loughran, the Philadelphia phantom,
former light heavyweight champion
of the world.
Loughran still is fighting, having
recently returned from England where
he beat the best of the Birtish heavy
weights.
Native of Philadelphia, where he
was born Nov. 29, 1902, Tommy start
ed his ring career in 1919. After he
had been in the ringh about eight
years he won the light heavyweight
championship from Mike McTigue.
Shortly after winning the title, he
abdicated it to become a full-fledged
heavyweight.
As a heavyweight Loughran lacked
the punch he needed to cope with the
bigger fellows, but his defense and
great skill carried him to many vic
tories. Last year he tourned South
America suffessfully, and this year
won several battles in France and
England. His home is Philadelphia
CADDY BOYS STRIKE,
GOLFERS CARRY BAGS
SYRACUSE, N. Y., May 19 (TP).—
Golfers who use the Drumlin’s golf
course either may have to carry their
own bags today or go without th«ir
daily 18 holes. The caddies at the
Syracuse course are on strike.
The caddies walked out in a de
mand for a 15-cent increase. Pickets
paraded up and down with signs, urg
ing golfers to use other courses or
pack their clubs away until the wage
dispute is settled.
Maybe the reason there is no “third
party’’ in the presidential campaign
this year is that politicians can’t get
over that certain failing—a desire to
be elected.

TARHEEL GRIDDERS
GETTING INTO SHAPE
CHAPEL HILL, N. C., May 18
(TP)—Slowly but surely, North Caro
lina’s new football coach is whipping
into shape the Tarheel’ j 1936 coach
ing staff.
Raymond “Bear” Wolf, former
Texas Christian assistant coach, ar
rived in Chapel Hill last Monday. He
begun working with his gridiron ma
terial for next fall, but has been
spending many hours with Robert A.
Fetzer, director of athletics at the
school- ,
The result is that today John
Vaught, former Texas Christian
guard, arrives at Chapel Hill to join
the coaching staf. Vaught will be as
signed to line duties. Meanwhile Fetz
er announced the retention of Walter
Skidmore as backfield coach of the
Tarheels. Skidmore was generally
credited on the campus as having
been an important factor in the pro
duction of such st. rs as Jackson,
Hutchins, Montomery and Snyder.
FLORIDA TEAM
TO FIGHT HERE
JACKSONVILLE STARS OF
RING TO BOX LOCALS
IN SAVANNAH MATCH
The transfer of the Marine Team
from Parris Island for foreign duty,
brought to an abrupt end, the sched
uled boxing matches here between
this team and the Savannah ama
teur club. As is the duty of the box
ers to obey the forwarding orders. It
is with regret that tne ooxing critics
of this city were not able to wit
ness the highly touted prowess of the
Leatherneck aggregation.
Negotiations were going on last
night, however, to bring to the city,
the team from Jacksonville, which
twice hung defeat on the Savannah
AAU winners, this club has met with
unprecedented success, and only prior
scheduled appearances will balk the
plans of the AAU to bring the boys
here for matches.
Bob Wattles, nationally known box
ing coach, who is in charge of the
Florida team stated that a check up
on fighting dates for the club will
disclose the possibility of the team
coming here. Fighting in Miami in
the very near futur?, the Jacksonville
team does not want to schedule a
match too near " * Miami engage
ment. Being perhaps one of the larg
est squads in the country, the Flori
dians cary a total of 15 men, eight
boxers and the remainder substitutes
who are ready to go no at a moments
notice. This clearly indicates the
calibre of the Southern team and it
is hoped *y the majority of Savannah
fightfans that the attempts will be
successful.

BASEBALL RESULTS
NEW YORK, May 19 (TP)—lt was
the veteran Bob Grove who stole the
big league pitching honors again to
day with his fourth shutout of the
season.
Grove’s four-hit hurling gave the
Boston Red Sox a 2 to 0 triumph
over the Chicago White Sox. Lefty
showed his old time fireball and a
dazzling change of pace in winning
his seventh game in eight starts.
Another American League veteran.
General Alvin Crowder pitched a
brilliant five-hitter for the Detroit
Tigers. Crowder’s pitching, plus con
sistent hitting by Detroit gave the
Tigers a 7 t ol verdict over the Wash
ington Senators. Other games in the
junior circuit were rained out.
In the National League, the New
York Giants topped the Pittsburgh
Pirates, 4to 2, for their eighth
straight triumph and a record of 12
victories in 13 games played at home.
Carl Hubbell was the winning pitcher
although he was touched for an even
dozen blows. Homers by Mel Ott and
Sam Leslie the winning mar
gin for the New Yorkers.
Frankie Frisch's St. Louis Cards
from behind t owallop the Phillies,
11 to 6.
Cincinnati beat Brooklyn, 9 to 6,
and the Chicago Cubs trimmed the
Boston Bees, 7 to 2, in the remain
ing games.
Sally League
In one of the two games scheduled
for the Sally League, the Savannah
Indians continued their winning
streak to three games when they
plastered the Macon Peaches 9-1.
Playing heads up ball behind the five
hit pitching of Jake Levy, veteran
righthander, the Tribe got to the of
ferings of two Macon hurlers to gar
ner a total of fifteen hits to clinch
the game and move within one-half
game of fourth place. Meanwhile in
Columbia, the Senators were laying
onto the Jacksonville Tars with a ven
geance and wiped them out 11-3. This
victory, shoving the Senators to third
place, more than erased the defeats
the Tars hung on the boys from
South Carolina in their last series.

A FISH STORY
CLEARWATER, Fla., May 16 (TP)
When Chester D. McMullen reeled in
his fishing line, he says his first
thought was “I didn’t know eels ran
in the waters around here.” He was
fishing a quarter mile from shore in
Clearwater Bay.
Closer scrutiny proved McMullen
was correct. It was not an eel wring
ling on his hook. It was a five-foot
rattlesnake.
