DIXIE CRYSTALS HAND WHIPPING LEATHERNECKS SUGAR MEN JOURNEY TO CHARLESTON WHERE THEY WIN, 13 TO 1 The Dixie Crystals of Port Went worth, yesterday journeyed to Charles ton where they more than took re-, yenge for the former pasting they took from the U. S. Marines station ed at the Navy Yard .when they dished out a 13-1 licking onto the Leathernecks. Scoring in the third, fourth and seventh stanzas, the Crystals proved more thitij a master to the Leather necks, and took up errorless ball be hind the three hit pitching of their hurling right-hander, McGaughey. The slim youngster was extremely stingy with the hits he allocated to the Marines, and was at no time in •coring danger. Earl Jackson, third sacker for the Savannahlans, led the batting at tack of the locals when he connected with three out of four for almost a perfect day at bat.

NAME ADDRESS MUNY LINKS GREENS TO BE IN SHAPE SOON STEVENSON ASSERTS Frank Stevenson yesterday at the Muny Links said that the greens which were unduly fast for this time of the year will be in shape in about 10 days. The new grass having al ready been planted, the irregular dry weather is delaying the growth on th? greens, which have been the cause of so much comments in the last few days. The fairways are in excellent shape especially on the incoming nine of the number 4 course. Fast and with an excellent growth on them, com ments from the locker room have dis closed the favorable run of the golfers who vie for honors over the week end.

Terrell, an At lantan clearly proved his shotmaking abilities to Savannahlans who fol lowed the foursome, when he played near par, the entire afternoon. The second place winners: Har mon, Manucy, O'Conor and Debish on, had a best ball of 65 to lose the first place prize by one stroke. Play ing steady golf for the outgoing nine, •the foursome wavered a bit on the incoming layout to lose the lead that they had picked up. SINCLAIR’S BIRDS ARE RACE WINNERS In a race which was featured by only three of the starters finishing, the weekly Oglethorpe Racing Pigeon club race was won by Lady Stassert from the loft of W. E. Sinclair in the slow time of 20 hours and 50 minutes. The explanation of the slow time can be had by the head winds which hampered the race throughout the entire journey. The birds were released from Murfreesboro, Tenn., a distance of 400 miles, and at this time only three of the birds have checked into their loft, Lady Ash and Mumps, being the other birds arriving at an early hour last nigh.t Mumps also being from the loft of Mr. Sinclair, gives the popular racing enthusiast a lead on the reason's racing honors. LAWYERS AND CCPS All Mondays are red letter days in the diaries of the local “cops,” but today wil be a day which wil always be foremost in the hearts of the local wearers of the “blue,” because they hook up with the crack softball aggre gation of the Lawyers in a game which should resound o the far corners of Chatham County. If threats mean anything, the Lawyers shuld go on the field with more than their usual share of injunctions to stop the bat ting assault of the puolicemen. Stating that they have a natural aptitude for the use of any club in general, the cops promise to whack the offerings of the Law yer pitcher, Hester, to the four corners of the Daffin Park lot. With everything barred except words, the guns, black-jacks, and night sticks will be checked into the team arsenal before the game so that there will be no fireworks, when the Lawyers start playing. Having previously heard the statement that the only way that “those flatfeet could win a game would be by using their jacks,” the cops will go out on the field today to fight for their honor.

BASEBALL RESULTS NEW YORK, May 25 (TP)—The baseball pools are slap-happy today from the lustiest walloping they’ve had in many a day. These syndicates pay off on the most runs scored.

Tony Lazzerl got three homers. New York’s Giants thumped the Phillies, 13 to 5. Brook lyn beat Boston, 11 to 2, as the New say.
