WAXAHACHIE HIGH
HURLER TRIES OUT
WITH WASHINGTON

WAXAHACHIE, Sept. 19-Arthur
Shires, star huricr of the Waxahachie
High School Indians the past year, has
joined the Washington club of the
American League and will be their
guest for the next few weeks.
Shires will not sign a contract or
take part in any games and will still
be eligible for high school and col
lego athletics. He plans to re-cnter
Waxahachie high school this fall.
During the present summer Shircs
has attracted the attention of several
big league scouts by his sensational
playing with Central Texas semi-pro
clubs. As a member of the Coolidge
team and other clubs he won more
than thirty games aud only lost three.
When China Springs went into the
semi-finals and finals of the state
semi-pro championship race, they Sc
cured Shircs to hurl for them.
Although Shires is a great semi-prO
pitcher he is a more brilliant first
baseman and it is probably at this lat
ter position that he will be heard from
as professional.
Hurting for Waxahachie High
School. champions of Texas the past
year, Shires did not lose a game.

CHAMP THANKS GOLF
FOR HEALTH VICTORY

A shining example of the health
giving powers of golf is Keefe Carter
of Oklahoma City, who, after a doctor
had prescribed life on the links as a
last resort for recovery, soon became
rugged enough to win the Western
amateur championship recently at De-
trOit.
He shot close TO par all during the
tournament over the LOchmOor course.
which is difficult one, and displayed
courage by coming from behind after
being down from the start, squaring
the match on the thirty-first hole and
winning and 2.
Carter is only 10 years old, and,
aside from Chick Evans is the young
est person to win major champion
ship. 1t was as reward for his win
ming golf that his father, Dorset Car
ter, lawyer, decided to send him on
the scenic. golf tour aboard the two
special trains managed by Golfers
Magazine for its readers.
