TRIO OF BROTHERS
ON DIAMOND SQUAD

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. March so.
Three brothers are likely to be seen
IN action with Upper Marlboro High
Schools base ball team this season.
They are Joe, Bennett and Cleveland
Dudley, all of whom last year played
with the high school team at Brandy
wine, this county. Joe and Bennett
are infielders and Cleveland is an out
fielder
A determined effort to win the
Prince Georges County High School
title this season is to be made by the
local school, according to Prof. |. B.
Rowland, principal of the institution,
who is tutoring the squad. Hyatts-
vile High was the 1924 champion.
Rowland has had his charges at
work couple of weeks and the squa d
rapidly is rounding into good condi-
ton
Joe Wilson has been elected man
ager of the team, and Is now arrang
ing his schedule. Aside from the
county high championship games two
contests have been booked with An
n polls High. one to be played here
and the other at Annapolis. Tits
with various Warrington high mines
also are expected to be arranged.
Harold Suit, veteran catcher, has
been elected captain of the team.
george burroughs rig nl-ndnOer
with plenty of smoke, who last year
lost but two games, one to Technical
High of Washington and the other to
Hyattsville High, it now appears, will
be called upon to bear the brunt of
the hlrDng this season.
Capt. Suit will do the bulk of the
work behind the plate.
In addition to Joe and Bennett
Dudley. Rowland has an impressive
ARRAY of inf cid talent, including Mar
Sin Buck. who last year played sec
ond base: Thomas Duvan. 1924 third
baseman, and Charles Wyvill, 1924
outfelder. who is showing infield
ability.
Aside from Cleveland and Duley
there are available for the outield
Harry Nicholson and George Buck,
1924 regulars; Edgar Burroughs, who
also displays promise as a catcher,
and Edward Wood.

He had to be nervy to pull a match
out of the fire like that. Finishing
the thirty-fourth hole, | was one up.
but he took the thirty-ffth and
squared the match.
He drove first on the final hole and
pulled his shot too far TO the left, so
that his second would have to be
over a giant oak tree which stood
about 40 yards from his ball and IN
the neighborhood OF 100 yards from
the green. Meantime, l got one
straight down the fairway.
He proved his courage by making a
grand recovery on his next play,
shooting high one over the tree
that stuck on the upper edge of the
green, 20 feet beyond the cup. But
] did a great deal better, for an up
hill putt, whereas his would be q
treacherous down-hill play.
Throughout the tournament how
over, Nabholtz displayed a calmness
in the pinches which was remarka BILE.
He was unmoved in the present stu
alton and he sank his 20-foot putt
unerringly for the hole and the
match. for ] missed mine.

what a difference a foot or so may
make when you're pitching upon the
green?

Larrys pitch-shot hit very near the
far edge OF the green and held.
Against Jim aBrnes. in the semi
finals, his second on the thirty-sixth
dropped in alnost the same location,
but went on over the green. This
left him a hard recovery shot to make.
He failed and Barnes went into the
finals against Walter Hagen instead
of the Lima lad.

grass, directly behind a tree.
The tree was small one, but l was
close up to ii. not more than four
feet distant. The flag was about SO
yards away.
Well, took a niblick and used all

clear the tree and yet reach the green.
The ball dropped down foot from
the cup, took one bounce, hit the nag,
and. coming down again. left me with
