The Sand piper of Charleston was the third boat board to cross thte line. Record Crowd The largest crowd ever to witnes. sailing boat races in Beaufort linei , the bluffs along the course and watched the trim sloops with their canvas bellied out, taking the bone in their teeth and going places. Entries from Savannah, Charleston and Sa vannah more than made the events the fastest ever to be seen on the Beaufort river, with the Beaufort yachtsmen taking the lion’s share . f the glory in the leading events. Class B. was featured by the sail- , ing of High Tide of Beaufort with Bill Scheper of the Beaufort Yacht club at the tiller with a fast time of 2:40:41. Running a close second was the entry of Charleston, Undine with Matt, a Beaufort boat running behind the two leaders. Savannah broke into the spotlight for the first ‘.me when Miss Polly Chisolm’s boat in the class C. The Imp came across the line in front of Eugene Bonaud also of Sa vannah in the Chief. A thrilling race was staged by these two boats in the minor class with a nod finally going to the Imp with Olin Mclntosh at the tiller.

Being familiar with the course, Bert Rodgers of Beaufort soon overcame an early lead of the Mischief, to show his heels to the rest of the entries in this class.

I watched his old swing and didn’t see one [ straight ball. Most of the trouble came when he allowed his hands to separate at the end of his backswing. To prevent this I suggested that in terlocking grip, and keeping the chin in place until well after im pact. He took the grip and kept his chin back, hitting every ball straight and at least 25 yards longer. 1 In spite of the fact that he had ! gained the much desired improve ment, he gave up the grip after about an hour's trial. It made i me think of how he would scold a 1 pupil for not giving his instruc • tions a fair trial. ‘ For years he had been putting up with faults and because they were not completely eliminated in a matter of minutes he gave up. Many a player has done the same thine Golf isn’t learned in a day. . Baseball Results I NEW YORK, July 17 (TP)—The slugging first baseman of the Boston Red Sox, Jimmy Foxx, today leads the home run hitters of both major leagues. While his teammates were dividing a double-header with the St. Louis Browns yesterday, Foxx slammed out his 25th and 26th cir cuit clouts of the season. St. Louis won the first game by beating Lefty Grove, 6 to 3. The Red Sox grabbed the second by a 5 to 4 score. The bespectacled hurler, Johnny Broaca, pitched the New York Yan kees to a 5 to 2 victory over the De troit Tigers in another American league game. Cleveland’s Indians shut out the Philadelphia Athletics, 7 to 0, -nd the White Sor of Chicago beat the Washington Senators, 9 to 7. In the National league, the New York Giants nosed out the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7 to 6, and the fast traveling Chicago Cubs took a close 1 to 0 game from the Boston Bees. The St. Louis Cards dropped further into second place by losing to the Phillies 6 to 2. Brooklyn and Cincinnati were not scheduled. Only two games were played yes terday in the Sally league because of the Savannah-Jacksonville set-to being rained out. The Columbus Red Birds fell to with a vengeance yesterday in their game with the Columbia Sena tors when they shut out the second division club 7-0. Merely a game which fattened the batting average of the Birds, the Senators didn’t have a chance throughout the session. The last game of the circuit found the Augusta Tgers making up for their past defeats at the hands of the Peaches when they romped on two ning, the Peaches were hopelessly in Tiger hurlers 8-1. Never in the run the ruck for the entire game.

The series between the Senators and Indians should prove interesting as the two last place clubs battle the games out for the somewhat doubtful honor of being ceHar holders for the Sally League It is thought that the rest due to the rain was a helpful aid to the In dians. Having been working hard for the last ten games, the Tribe was sorely in need of a rest and yesterday’s layoff, no doubt gave the pitching staff a good chance to nurse their arms. The Tribe will be back in Sa vannah next Wednesday 'to renew their home stand. The scarcity of games on the home diamond in the second half was a sore blow to the fans who took in more than their sual share during the first half of the season. Unable to avoid the majority of out-of-town games apparent for the last half, the Indians will be on the road for practically the rest of the season. Y. M. C.A. CONTESTS BROUGHT TO CLOSE WINNERS IN EACH CLASS ARE TO BE GIVEN EMBLEMS Athletic contests in the boys division of the Y. M. C. A. which have been going on for some time were brought to a close last week, with the finax count of winners just being released. In the midget class, the Comets, with Billy Taylor at the helm, nosed out the Stars, led by Johnny Polych rones, by a close 344 to 343 count. The prep class, styled the wild animal league found the Wildcats under Alvis Potter, ahead with 370 points and the Tigers, Harry Rauler son captain, trailed with 324. In the younger business boy’s class, the Peanuts apparently headed for the cellar in the opening rounds, forg ed forward at the last to crack the contest with 276 points, against 270 for second place, won by the Hickory nuts, headed by Billy Davenport. SHOP/ TALK—Helen Jacobs and Fred Perry, international tennis /stars, talk over their game when they meet in London. REALIZES THAT FANS ARE WISE TO HIS UTTER LACK BALL KNOWLEDGE AS TRIBE SINKS INTO SALLY CELLAR A sadly dejected group of Savannah Indians took to the road today headed for the home diamond of the Columbia Sena tors. Down in the cellar position of the league, the fighting In dians are proceeding with the rest of their present schedule with but one thought in mind: That Bobby LaMotte is not the man for the job of being a baseball manager for two reasons; first, because of the fact that the strategy employed by thf erstwhile manager wouldn’t even fit into the picture of a sandlot team, and second, because of the fact that LaMotte has never been and never will be a baseball manager. Having lost all but five games in the second half, the Tribe is firmly entrenched in the cellar position and from the way the management of the club is taking steps to remedy the situation, by the removing of LaMotte, the so-called manager, the Indians are doomed for the last position for the rest of the season. The former manager, Bill Gould, did win ball games, and though the former boss-man of the Tribe never did get out of the second division, he was able to keep the club either in fourth place or better for the entire time that he held the reins of managership. It doesn’t seem possible that the vociferous LaMotte would have the nerve to try and manage a ball club with his scanty knowledge of baseball technique. As he blunders through his routine of limited baseball knowledge in the handling of the Tribe it is pathetic to see how the ex-big leaguer shows he knows so little about the managership end of the game. Always the last out of the Indian dugout to protest a decision, and incidentally the first back to the roost, LaMotte’s tactics would be better suited to a boy’s camp instead of a Class B outfit. One time bub bling over with all the enthusiasm of what he was going to do with the locals, as he sits now and watches how the other man agers in the league have outpaced him from the start, he fully realizes the inadequacy of his knowledge of the national game. It’s just a case of LaMotte being too small for the job. NEWTON WINNER IN WEEKLY SHOOT Jce Newton again showed horn how at the weekly skeet shoot of the Forest City Gun Club, with a scoro of 49 out of 50 birds which went un challenged for first place. A perfect score for the first twenty-five bird assignment was marred by but one miss on the second. A score of 46 won for W. W. Stod dard, consistent placer, second place with no competition. E. J. Oliver turn ed in a twenty-two for his first verse.
