Fergus Falls, Mimi, Jan. 1l--UP)-s
National coffee drinking honors
started trickling back from Texas to
Minnesota today as Gus Comstock
guzzled 63 cups of java in five hours
after starting his drinking marathon

Thus Comstock, who aspires to
beat the mark of H. S. Streety, of
Amarillo. Texas, who has II cups to
his credit, bettered his own record
of 81 cups in 10 hours. established
at previous exhibition.
The Minnesota coffee drinker en-
poets to continue his performance
until at least three o'clock this aft

noon to pose for picture, he APP
peared a bit tired, but showed no
other effects from his task.

his boss at barber shop where the
coffea drinker acts as porter when
~ isn't drinking, insists that his
man will exceed 100 cups before

 SHUTTLE MEADOW
Bob Gardner and Harold Steiner
 to Play Sweeney and Irwin

Bob Gardner, one of the leading with Harold Steiner of New York in a special match Sunday at the Shuttle Meadow Golf club against Bil Sweeney and Chet Irwin. This vii be the feature event of the an- nual reunion of the class of 1912 Of Yale university which will be held tomorrow at the club.
 Gardner has always been among the leaders in the national tourna- ments and has held the amateur championship on several occasions. He was captain of the United States Walker Cup team for three years and has been runner-up to cham pions in various other tournaments.
 He was vice president of the Unit ed States Golf association in 1924 and 1925 and was amateur cham pion Of the United States in 1909 and 1915. He was runner-up in 1916 and 1921.
 He was captain of the United States Walker Cup team in 1S23-24 and 26 and while in that capacity. the team never lost the cup. He lost to Jesse Sweetser in the semi final of the amateur championship tour nament in 1923 and 1924 when Sweetser won the title and he lost to W. L. Hope of England one up in the first round in 1924. In this match the breaks" were against him and the only thing that beat him.
 He lost to Bobby Jones in the second round for the amateur cham pionship in 1922 and again to the same Georgian in 1919 in the second round. Incidentally both these matches were lost by the same score of up and to play.
 He has always been near the top in the championships.
 Steiner. because of his private work hasn't been able to engage in tournament play to any great ex- tent but be is one of the low handi- cap men in the Metropolitan district. He is wonderful golfer.
 The appearance of both of these men at the local club will be . great opportunity for local golfers to watch a real big-timer in action.
 Bill Sweeney is one of the leading golfers at Shuttle Meadow while Irwin is assistant pro to Val Flood and an excellent golfer. The match vii be one of the best seen at the club in years.
 The course Is much better now than 1t was week ago but Val Flood has promised to have 1t as nearly perfect as possible for the Sunday match. It will be started about 2:30 o'clock.

 Fafnir vs. Machine
 The Fafnir baseball team scored victory over the New Britain Ma chine team in regularly scheduled contest at Walnut Hill. The score Vas s to 3. Loose fielding in the pinches behind Erny Anderson, who occupied the mound for the New n.atics, spelled disaster where the losing team could have lad a vic- tory if the game had been played as it should have been.
 Anderson struck out II men. but this good work was considera bly marred by the fact that he walked six, two of them to fill the bases. Eight glaring errors behind him nullfied his good pitching in many of the innings.
 The "old vet" Jim Havlick, who has been pitching since Columbus discovered America, went to the well again and came home with a filled pitcher. It was through his great work in the box that his teammates were enabled to get cleac lead and hold it for win. He allowed seven scattered hits, struck out five men and walked two.
 The Newmatics seemed to have the game tucked away when they scored two runs in the second inning on two hits and two errors. but with Fafnirs having two big frames, the fifth and the eighth. and the New matics going dead after their big time, the Bearing Makers made sure work of the win.
 Fafnirs scored one run in the fourth on a hit and two errors. Four came in in the fifth, two hits. two walks. two errors and a assed ball. The three in the eighth were scored on two walks and three tits.
 Corbin was the big stick for the Fafnir team with three safe bingles out of five trips. Smith clouted out two hits for the losers. Walicki play ed nice game in the field for Faf- mfrs. The summary:

The visiting aggregation is favored to win the pennant in the circuit, but with the New Britain crew entered, fans in this city are banking on Charlie Miller's combination to be the leaders in the loop.
 The Pirates entered the league at a meeting last week and since that time the team has been lining up its plays and offense and defense in preparation for the drive towards the league pennant. Coach Charlie Miller has had the squad out for several stiff practice sessions ard a good game is expected to result.
 The game will start promptly at o'clock Sunday afternoon.

CHURCH LEAGUE GAMES
South Congregational and First Lutheran Teams Come to Grips at Willow Brook Park.

Three close battles are predicted in the Inter- Church Baseball league games scheduled for this evening at Willow Brook park. Perhaps the most important is that between the South Congregational and First Lutheran churches, for, in addition to being rivals in church play, these teams are now battling among the leaders. The Swedes went into 8 half-game lead by virtue of their victory over the Stanmors Monday, but the South church $ only one game to the rear and can tie the Lutherans by winning tonight. The Swedes dropped their only game to the St. Matts, who fell before the South church Monday, but the league teams are so closely matched that predictions from past scores are impossible. A defensive battle with Bill Fresen and Bill Darrow facing each other on the mound is expected. The game will be played on Diamond No. 2.
 The Stanley Memorial team, now in second place, will engage the Trinity Methodists on Diamond No. 1. The Stanmors are anxious to atone for their defeat Monday night and must win to stay in the race. The Methodists need the game, too, as they have fallen behind the pace makers and must get back if they are to remain in the the running. On the grass diamond the Every mans Bible class, which won it's first victory Monday night. will play the First Baptists, team which has now taken two in a row after a bad start.

Speaking of Sports

VS0Io VI 8oiL III tniS SeCtlOn VIII have the opportunity of seeing one of the leading golfers of the world in action Sunday afternoon when Bob Gardner. former amateur cham pion and runner-up in several tournaments. pairs up with Harold Steiner against Bill Sweeney and Chet Irwin of the club force of players.
 Gardner Is on . par with Bobby Jones, Jesse Sweetser. Francis Oui- met and all the others with whose names golf is synonymous. He is one of the cleverest of the big time players in this country and on three different occasions led the United States Walker cup to victory over the opposing British team.
 It isn't very often that . golfer of his ability Is seen in action in New Britain and crowds of follow ers of the sport will surely be on hand to watch him. He has the pe- culiar knack of being able to hit the ball straight down tho course. He takes his stance. sees where the hole is and drives right to 1t
 Bobby Jones today is numbered among the past champions. His title will pass onto another head to- day. Jones has the faculty of being resigned to his fate and with a shruE of his shoulders, he simply remarks that another year is com ing.
 It is evident to those who are not interested in golf that there must be something about the game that makes men wild. To make an in- vestigation of the "early birds" who arise in the small hours of the morning to get in Ticks at the game at Goodwin park in Hartford. is to see that these men are not only dew otees of tho game but also they are morbid fans.
 No business house could watch it's accounts more closely than most golfers watch their scores. It is a time for rejoicing when stroke is topped off the total but 1t is time for despair and gloom when instead of growing smaller the number of strokes increases.
