to the batSman without having
either foot in contact with the rub
Der, it is an illegally pitched ball.
The umpire should rule it ball
unless the batter strikes at it.
This same act on the part Of the
pitcher with a runner on the bases
would be interpreted as a balk.
Thus the same act is differently
interpreted according to whether or
not there are runners on.
When the umpire calls balk on
the pitcher, play is Immediately
suspended, which, of course, makes
it utterly impossible for the balk
to have any effect on the status
Of the batsman. The count on the
batsman remains the same when a
balk is called, regardless Of whether
the pitcher delivers the ball.

when a let down caused a Brewer
run to go over, and that tally de-
cided the contest.
Two Threats Wasted
The Indians threatened in the
first and second innings, but the
needed bingle wasn't there and each
of the threats saw runners left
stranded on third and second. After
the second, Ballou was in royal
command and in five of the remain
ing seven innings not an Indian
reached first.
Matthews singled after two were
out in the fifth, but Warstler
promptly forced him when the hit
and-run play went awry. When
Miller, Brewer shortstop, saw Mat
thewS start with the pitch he
scooted to cover second and bumped
into Warstler's line grounder and
stepped on the bag to force Matty.
If Miller had not moved with the
pitch the Warstler drive would have
gone through for single.
Fans Three in Row
In the seventh, Holke, first up,
singled and then Ballou frightened

the third strike on Russell, figuring
evidently, he would make a faster

the pitch was plainly inside. 1t

Brewers got only five hits off Danny

The field of competitors in the
third annual Indianapolis Times in
vltational interscholastic golf tour
nament at Coffin municipal links
narrowed from 141 to SO by an
eighteen hole round of medal quail
flying play Wednesday, and match
play started today to further di-
minish the field.
The ninety-siX qualihers were di-
vided into three flights OF thirty
two each, according to their scores
Wednesday. The Championship
fight contained boys who shot
scores Wednesday ranging from 79
to 81. Two youths who finished
with 81 scores in positions 33 and "a
we're relegated into the first conso-
lation fight known as the Harry
Schopp flight" The thirty-two
players in this flight were blanketed
under six strokes, 81 to 81.
The third flight Of 80 contained
youths who shot scores from 81 to
los, with two boys who shot the
latter score in positions 33 and "a.
They were Ivan Whitridge of Broad
Ripple and Thomas McCintock Of
the same school.
Maurice Stone of Manual and
Phillip Bait Of Washington tied for
the low medalist honors Wednesday
with scores of 70. They will play of
the tie later. Probably the greatest
piece of golf Wednesday was turned
in by Russell RAIDER of Manual, who
walked the course on crutches and
scored 81, two over the low quail
flying scores.
RAIDER recently underwent an op-
Grafton for an abcess on the leg.
Fearing thestrain of the long walk
would be too great for the healing
member, RAIDER walked between shots
on his crutches. He dropped the sup
ports before each shot and before
going on the green.
Boys from all schools of the city
and Of all ages ranging from 7 to
II entered. Harold Mcclure; Jr., son
of the course manager at Coffin, was
the youngestentry, being only 7. He
! scored 172 and was but five strokes
over his partner, Robert Lindop Of
| st. Joan of Arc, who scored 167.
Neville Ewing, defending cham
pion of last year, was off his game
Wednesday. The strong wind that
swept the course inflated scores Of
most of the favorites. George An
derson, who was low medalist last
year, scored 85 Wednesday. Billy
Reed Jr. scored "a.
Missed Puts Costly
Tom Rile of Technical was dark
horse as was Cecil Bolding, also Of
Tech. They both scored SOS anG
missed puts for low medal honorS.
Bolding, by scoring par on the last
three holes, could have turned in
II, but darkness was on him and
he faltered at the finish after play
ing brilliant golf to recover from
two bad rs on the third and
eleventh holes.
William Heinlein, champion at
OdOAlSu1d dlj WdS On 4l4o SdAllC dllu
scored 85, over a course where he
rarely shoots above &c. James Stew
art, Shortridge champion, failed to
qualify in the championship bracket
with a score of 80. That score also
failed to place him in the first con-
ISOLATION flight, and he was listed in
the second consolation.
