NAOMI HULL'S TRIUMPH
Good Iron Game Winning Factor in Hoosiers Victory
Over Mrs. Mida, Low MedaIiSt.

Monday, started right out to take
the match on the greens.
Mrs. Lee Mida, her opponent who
shot so to qualify and who this year
boasts of eleven course records, was
ahead off the tee. Naomi was one
up when Mrs. Midas putt trimmed
the cup on No. hole.
Good Iron Game
BY playing a stellar game with
her irons, Miss Hull was always on
the green with her opponent and
picked up another hole on twelve,
where Mrs. Mida, again took three
puts. She lost one on fifteen, but
sank a twenty-foot putt on hole
seventeen to cinch the match, 2 up
and one to play.
The play Tuesday was contrast
to Monday, with the raincoats and
sweaters missing and in their places
frocks OF all colors.
Tuesday was given over to the
players in the second flight, In
which 1 am paired, to practice put
ting and to playing of the tie scores.
Matches started today in that fight
and I hope to win it. now that L

Olympia Fields flight. Mrs. A. A

some flight prizes.

III flying round, scheduled for
@-l next Saturday at the Indian
apolis Country Club. has been post
poned until Sept. by the sports and
pastimes committee. Thus all match
play dates will be set ahead one

due to the fact that the western

Looking over. the list of entries

Indiana boys are going to have

to start around noon.
W. E. Balch, manager of the
Merchants Association, in today's
bulletin calls to the attention of the
association members the greatness
of the western open tournament to
Indianapolis.
Prominent mention of the tourney
in all ads, and prominent and clever
window displays are requested as
proper cooperation with the High

brought the meet and its big ex.
pense Of promotion, including the
big pros, to a place where the Hoo

T Fl RIL- L. S
st. Louis, Pittsburgh and
Cincy in Battle for Lead
Cards Favored.
By Henry l.. Farrell,

CHtttU fFtoo CtUil CIfFbcUDftUtHb
NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-Approach-
ing the home stretch in the Ma
tional League pennant race. with
a blanket covering the leading St.
Louis, Pittsburgh and Cincinnati
clubs, the checkers are sitting on the
rail waiting for one or more of the
clubs to crack.
Experience doesn't count any too
much, as the Pittsburgh Pirates
have only year on the Reds and
the Cardinals.
The winner will be the team that
can stand the gaff.
Many wise baseball men, includ-
ing John McGraw, have been watch
ing for Rogers Hornsby's club to
fold up under the strain, but the
Cardinals have been playing better
ball day by day with splendid pitch
ing, inspired fielding and savage
hitting.
The Cards are In the midst Of
squirt that gave them sixteen out Of
eighteen games and the predicted
collapse Of the team looks far re-
moved
Reds Come Back
Jack Hendricks and his Reds
seemed to be out of the running after
the disastrous eastern invasion, but
the team went back home and ran
up a string Of nine straight, coming
from behind to win most of their
games.
The Pirates survived internal
dissension that resulted in the f1ning
of several stars and the firing of
Eddie Moore, Max Carey. Babe
Adams and Carson Bigbee, but they
are still hanging on.
The big break may come next
week when the Pirates go to st.
Louis to open one of the most I'M
portant series of the year, and the
advantage ought to be with Horns
by's club, as they will be in familiar
surrounding with st. Louis yelping
for ifs first National League
pennant.
Until Last Week?
The battle may continue until the
last week of the season and the
championship may be decided by
one game, as it was in the American
League several years ago when the
st. Louis Browns were beaten out
by the Yankees by a stroke Of a
mathematical pencil.
Betting and general opinion here
favors the Cardinals to outlast the
Pirates and the Reds because the
club has more all.round strength
than the Reds and better morale
than the Pirates.
The Cards, however, have eight
games to play with the Pirates and
four with the Reds and the Reds
have five more games with the Pr
rates. And the three teams have an
other eastern trip to make.

CAPITAL LEADS 528 CITIES
in VALUE OF NEW BUILDING
Leading 25. Construction for April Will
Exceed Last Months Total.

our survey last month, and partly by
the fact that building activities the last
few months of 1925 were on a very
high level
In the 25 cities where the greatest
volume of building is in progress,
March revealed a total of $273, ,S11 .273
compared with $238255.159 in March
1925, and with S321, GAS, 1853 in March,
1924. These figures represent gain
of about Ia per cent compared with
March. 1925, and approximately the
same percentage of loss from March,
1924.
For the quarter the 25 leading cities
reported $626 6.3S7,4S6 compared with
S571 ,967 ,015 last year, gain of little
more than per cent,
Among the individual cities, New
York continues to forge ahead on a
proportionately larger scale than any
other of our large urban centers.
Nevertheless, March this year repre-
scented a considerable falling off as
compared with the same month in
1924 and in 1928. and only negligible
gain over March, 1922. New York
gained "a per cent over March, 1926,
and Is per cent for the quarter.
More active tendencies We're dis
played in Chicago. Detroit, Cleveland,
Washington. st, Louis, Newark, Balti-
more, Pittsburgh and Milwaukee.
No indications of a let-uN in the
building activities of the. South are in
sight, according to reports from the II
southern States. OF special interest
are the reports from Florida, showing
that building activities in all parts of
that State are not only continuing
Evening star., 1926-04-24

along former spectacular lines, but are
gaining momentum.
In the 143 leading Southern cities
building permits amounting to $5I,
075, ,724 were issued in March. In the
SO cities which submitted comparable
figures there was gain of 80 per cent
over March. 1925.
The 66 principal Florida cities issued
$21,640, ,492 in March building permits:
Twenty of these centers submittea &c,
comparable figures, showing gam
of 98 per cent over last March and w
per cent for the quarter.
Larger building activities are pend
ing in Miami, where permits OF $S,-
330,923 were filed in March, a gain OF
90 per cent over the same month a
year ago. Since the first of January
Miami's building declarations have
totaled $1O,925,936, a 49 per cent in
crease over the first quarter of 1870.
Houston Close Second.
Houston was a close second to
Miami among the Southern cities.
and Louisville a creditable third.
Among the 25 leading building cities
of the South seven were in Florida,
five in North Carolina and four In
Texas.
Among the Southern cities where
unusual building activities are pend
ing, based on their records of new
building permits, are Birmingham.
Memphis, Dallas, Fort Worth. Am
arillo, San Antonio, New Orleans.
Greensboro, Charlotte. Winston-Sa-
lem. Asheville, High Point, Atlanta,
st. Petersburg. Tampa, Jacksonville.
Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach
and Coral Cables.
Increased activity but not much

uation. The beginning of Spring
building increased the demand for
starting materials. but the prices of
crushed stone and crushed Stag did
not change and those of sand and
gravel remained stationary except for
a decline in Chicago and a rise in
Detroit. Lime also rose in Detroit
and Kansas City but declined in

Dallas. Portland cement continued
constant. The demand for common
brick, especially in the North and
Northeast, outstripped the supply and
showed increases in Boston and Min
neapolis. The price Of hollow tile
also rose in Minneapolis, Detroit and
Kansas City.
The greatest weakness in the build
ing material situation was evidenced
in the lumber market. This was es
pecially true in the cases of long-leaf
yellow pine and fir. Declines in price
were more numerous than the in
creases and were sufficient to be quite
noticeable.
The structural steel situation eX-
hibited the opposite tendency, judg-
ing by reported quotations. There
