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. The Box Score MACON AB R H PO A Gamble, cf.. 4 0 0 2 0 McDaniel, ss. 4 0 2 1 2 Masucci, 3b 4 0 2 1 2 D.

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.

SPORT CELEBS MS' 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.

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.

TRANS- RADIO LEASED WIRE 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.

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. J I.
