Notable kills during the year IN
clude an old white wolf in Arizona,
known for the past eight years on the
AguiIa range and reported by stock
men to have killed about S25,0OO
worth of cattle and sheep in that
time. On one occasion this wolf was
definitely known to have killed 65
sheep in one night and 40 in another.
II averaged a calf about every four
nights. Coyotes had learned to follow
this old wolf, sometimes as many as
- or Is at a time, in order to feast
on the leavings after it had made
kill.
"Stockmen had placed bounty Of
$500 on it's scalp and many private
hunters and trappers had worked for
it months at time without results.
Its range was most unusual for
wolf, being in the low hot desert, at
an altitude of not more than 5000
feet above sea level, and in a district
overgrown with the typical desert
vegetation, such as palo verdes and
mesquites. This wolf succumbed in
October to skiIlfully placed poisoned
bait"
A wolf locally known. by forest
rangers and stockmen as the butch
ering wolf was trapped in Eagle
County, Colo, during July, 1928. In

Unfortunately, some of the best
pitching stars have pitched far more
than nine innings without being over
come by the effort so that 26 innings
may not have ruined the efficiency of
Cadore and Oeschger, although. 1t is
possible they strained their arms Sc
verely at such an early period of the
year
The longest game prior to this con-
test in the National League had been
one of % innings, and, oddly enough,
Brooklyn figured in that contest, play
ing against the Pittsburgh nine and
winning by 6 to 5, August 22, 1917, at
Ebbets Field. The longest game in
history in a minor league was one of
26 innings, so both major leagues and
minor leagues were tied after the
finish of the contest in Boston.
Only twice during the 26 innings
did a Brooklyn player reach third
base-once in the fifth, when Brook
lyn scored, and a second time in the
seventeenth inning, when Brooklyn
did not score. In that inning they
filled the bases with one hand out,
but Oeschger had fine felders work
ing behind him on that day and
spectacular double play retired the
side.
The Brooklyn run was made when
Krueger, the Brooklyn catcher, was
given a base on balls and Cadore was
thrown out at first. Kruger went to
second base, and when Olson hit a
single over Maranville's head hrueger
crossed the plate.
Roston got it's run in the sixth in
ming. One hand was out when Cruise
batted the ball safely to left field for
three bases. Holke raped a short
fly, which fell behind third base, and

Wheat made a wonderful running
catch. So certain was Johnson of
Brooklyn that Wheat could not get
the ball that he failed to cover third
and sure double play was missed.
because Wheat could have caught the
runner, who was well on his way
home. Cruise got back safely to
third, and Boeckel, who is now dead,
batted the ball to right field for a
base and Cruise scored 1t was
Boeckers third consecutive hit. He
went on to second when the ball was
thrown to the plate, and Maranville,
the next batter, doubled to center
field.
Boeckel was thrown out, Hood to
Cadore to Krueger, and Boston lost
its opportunity to win. Boeckel never
was q fast runner and the throw was
too quick for him. OF the Brooklyn
team who played in that game, three
remain in Brooklyn. They are Neis,
Johnston and Wheat. OF the Boston
team, those still at the Hub are Pow
ell, Mann and ONeil.
The Brooklyn team got 9 hits in the
26 innings and the Boston team made
15 Cadore struck out 6 players and
Oeschger Z. Cadore gave bases on
balls and Oeschger 4. Both pitchers
were asked in other years II they re-
GREETED or were glad they had pitched
this record d-breaking contest of all
time. Neither seemed to be very
happy over it, and probably that was
due to the fact that both of them
never had much luck after 1t.

| ever saw, and the hardest, dld no
Superficially IL was not a difficult
shot at all. 1t did not come out of
bad rough or a troublesome hazard.
The man who made II did not have
to play over a bad trap and his lie
was a good one in an advantageous
position in the fairway. Yet to make
this play required the essence of all
the skill Of one of the greatest golf
ers that ever lived.
Harry Fardon was the maker of
this remarkable shot and II came up
during the British open championship
at Sandwich in 1911.
Vardon and Arnaud Massey, the
Frenchman who had won the British
open at Hoylake in 1907. were tied
with scores of 303 at the end of the
regulation 72 holes play. The
1S-ho1e play-off which followed re-
suited in a very close contest. 1t was
nip and tuck all the way until the
two experts, followed by a huge gal
lery, reached the seventeenth hole.
The seventeenth at Sandwich is a
long hole, par 5. Ordinarily the third
shot is up very steep hill slope.
The green is placed just beyond the
crest of the hill. and 1t has a down
ward slope toward the rear. Obvi-
ously a ball pitched over the hill so
that 1t would drop on the green would
be unlikely to hold and would go on
over into trouble at the rear.
If 1 remember correctly, Vardon
had a lead of one stroke as he and
Massey came to the seventeenth.
Both got good drives and second
shots were short of the green about
the same distance-130 yards.
/ was standing at one side of the
green as Vardon played and noted
every detail of his shot. Very few
golfers could have made IL. He did
not use a niblick, but called upon his
mashie. Moreover, although the
green was fast and sloping away
from him, he played a low ball. His
pitch cleared the crest of the hill,
struck the green 4 yards short of the
hole and came to a stop feet above
1t. What a back spin he must have
put on it! Have you ever tried TO
hold ball on a similar green?
Massey took a five and Vardon
sank his putt for a birdie four. This
gave the Englishman a lead of two
strokes. His great mashie play was
the straw that broke the Frenchman's IS
back. Harry had a margin of four
strokes at the finish, thus acquiring G
his fifth open championship. He ran
the string up to six in 1914.

DUNDEE APPEARS DUE
TO BE WELL PUNISHED
BY FAIR PLAY.

NEW YORK, January 22.-Having &
outlined his defense in a radio state
ment made under his name, II remains
to be seen how the New York Athletic
Commission will be impressed by
Johnny Dundee's excuse for running
out on the French boxing promoters.
after he had signed an agreement to
fight Bretonnel.
The New York commissioners, as a
general thing, are a pretty hard
hearted, one might even say hard
boiled, set of men when 1t comes to
dealing with boxers whose sins, al
legged or otherwise, have brought
them on the carpet.
But If any commissioner was
abroad with his wife and his wife had
sickness in her family, that commits
sioner would likely find himself hur-
rying home on the first ship whether
he wanted to go or not. So it may be
that the boxing board, taking such
a condition into consideration, Will
not be too hard on Johnny, granting
that Johnny gives satisfactory proof
of the existence OF said relative and
proves also that the relative Is really
sick.
The trouble is that this is an inter
national affair, and what with repa-
rations and one thing and another,
France is all grouched up about the
United States as II stands. Were New
York's official boxing board to sane
tion the antics of a. prizefighter in

added to the weight OF other offenses.
might cause a war. Or ambassadors
might be recalled, or, to go even far
ther than that, the French might say
that Carpenter could never come over
here again.
All in all there are good chances
that Johnny Dundee, despite the i'll
ness of his wife's relative. may be Of
ficiaIly crucified to satisfy French
pride.
