MERCHANTS TAKE
TRACK MEET FROM
REDS; SCORE 31-4
(By GEORGE LAWS)

When the Winslow Merchants
were eliminated by the riptrack
Red Skins from the two-game SER
les played in May for the city
championship, the defeat ranked,
as defeats will. Sunday the Mer-
chants met the aborigines for the
second time, and took a most COM
plete and utterly vicious revenge,
swamping the Indians with bar
rage of 27 hits, which, coupled
with II Redskin errors, gave the
Merchants total of 81 runs in
eight innings, as against the more
reasonable number of for the
Reds.
The rout, track-meet, of what
have you centered about the slug
ging assault of the Merchants,
who were led in their praiseworthy
labor by Charlie Hitchcock, who
had a perfect day at the pan, de-
livering six safe hits, one of which
was for two bases, out of six tries.
None of the Merchants went hit
less. Clark his four out of five
Waller got three hits in five tries,
one of his hits being the lone home
run of the contest, Danny Hitch
cock hit safe four times in seven
assays, and Reynolds garnered
three safeties. Dan Hitchcock also
perpetrated the theft of four bases
from the Redskins, with Stanley,
Valliler and Reynolds pilfering two
each, Osterhaut three, and one each
for Clark and Chase.
Stanley toook Osterhaut's station
at first when Scotty, in sliding,
banged his head against the flinty
infield and took the count.
Parks pitched good, steady
game of ball for nine INNINGS, al
lowing the Reds only 9 hits. Tay-
lor at short for the Indians, con-
.tributed six costly boots that help
ed to swell the Merchants total.
Analla at third was chalked with
two errors, and Acoya, in center,
turned in three. The smashing

MARTENS DEFEATS
RHODES in GOLF
TOURNEY FINALS

Shooting a championship cali
bered game to offset the twelve
stroke difference in handicap Cat"
Rhodes struggled vainly to defeat
Bill Martens Sunday in the finals
of Winslow Golf Clubs first tour
nament, and was defeated for the
Club championship by Martens by
a margin of two strokes. Rhodes
score for the eighteen was 80, net
of 81 strokes with his handicap.
Martens, with a handicap of for
ty strokes on eighteen holes, turn
ed in SO, giving him a net of So
to win the tournament.
Martens elimination of Christen-
sen came as surprise, for Chris
tensen has been shooting fancy
golf during the contest In almost
every round his score has been un-
der so for the nine, and with a
handicap equal to Martens it look
ed a little top-heavy in favor OF
Christensen.
Twice Martens and Christensen
locked horns for the right to enter
the finals, with the first round,
played Friday evening, resulting in
tie. In the play-off Saturday af-
ternoon, Martens defeated Christen-
sen by two strokes, the same mar
gin by which he won the cham
pionship.
The handicapping committee, in
preparing figures for the first
tournament, were handicapped
themselves by inadequate figures
with which to work. Scores turn
ed in during this tournament will
be used to prepare future handi-
caps for club members, and more
equitable rating will result.
Martens is a true dark hose. -
Never before or during the tourna-
ment, was his name mentioned as
the possible one to top the list.
When Osterhaut and Gray were
put out in the first round, the rail-
birds pointed to Goodman, but his
elimination and the brilliant play
of Grant seemed to favor the latter
for the title.
But the club has champion
