First Robin Shows Self at
CT. Falls: Discovered Bv Row

The first robin Of the year, so far
as has been learned, made his bow in
Great Falls Sunday. Credit for dis
covering the first redbreast goes to
Arthur James Webb, 10 years old, of
SOB Sixth avenue north. The boy saw
Mr.. Robin displaying himself in a
tree in the yard of the youngsters
home. If the present type of weather
continues, no doubt many of these
cheerful advance agents of spring will
soon be chirping their advertisements.

Ambling out to Griffith
Stadium to verify for ourselves
the truth or faIsity of rumors
and reports which have been
rampant all of this alleged
spring, to the effect Ty Cobb
and Iris Speaker are all folded
up like an awning, we are
pleased to report the situation
not the least alarming.
Those two modern Methuse-
labs, if yesterdays edition can
be taken as q sample copy, are
still playing the kind Of ball
which wins games. Since win
ming 'em seems TO be the main
idea. we ask what more could
be demanded. Those twins
turned in duplicate perform
ances, so far as offensive &C
ton is concerned, each coming
through with . three-bagger,
each driving in three runs, each
scoring one run himself.
At bat four times apiece, you
will notice they made but
single hit each; but those at q
time when they would count for
the most-and that, my friends
is playing the game as Old
Man Spalding or Old Man Reach
or whoever it was invented the
game, intended it should be
played, No lost motion there,
no wasted effort, no hits SQUAD

Corpin Snieids, o: the Riaito
Theater, with forty years OF
stage experience behind him,
sees a good omen Tor the Ath.
letics in the removal OF the
elephants from their vestments.
Corbin has one superstition.
He informs us that elephants
are bad luck in the show bust
ness. Sooner or later failures
will come in, their wake. He
says elephant acts are the curse
of the profession. Bad luck In
variable attends their showing.
A theater burns down after they
leave, goes bankrupt or some
thing equally cadaverous.
He declares the five straight
wins with which the Athletics
find themselves today are di-
rectly attributable to the elm
nation of the elephants from
their blouses. Shields picks the
Athletics to cop the American
League pennant this year-be-
cause they've done away with

Hagen and Compston are at
it today, Sir Walters request
for a delay having been re-.
fused. The English, as usual,
pay back in kind, with a bit
to boot.
Hagen made Abe Mitchell wait at
the tee. It's attractive irony that
Compston turned down the Amert.
cans plea for more time to prepare.
As this is written Hagen Is four
down at the end Of Is holes.
American sentiment in favor OF
Hagen Is born Of patriotism. There
appears to be no one who has
charged Compston with being UNI
sportsmanIike. The Mitchell episode.
is too well remembered for that.
Tommy Armour, American
open champion; Gene Sarazen
and BIN MehIhOrn are with Ha-
zen in quest Of the British open
crown, vacated BY Bobby Jones.
Washington pulls with al its
heart for Tommy Armour, who,
In two years % pro &c the Con.
gressiOnaI Club, has made per,
sOnaI friends galore and host Of
admirers here.
Some Of Tommy's closest friends
expect little Of him In the coming
classic. He left Washington in a.
doubtful frame Of mind himself, de.
Gliding to go only at the last minute.
A severe attack OF influenza threw
him out Of gear, and the effects were
still apparent when he pulled out.
Tommy was thin and tribe wan.
Lieut.. Bob Young, guest Of d.. D.
q. Davis at Beaver Dam, tells OF
what he believes to be the longest
golf shot on record. 1t travelled from
was driven from a tee, struck the
wall OF castle and bounded aboard
a ship. It's remindful Of the home
run hit by Larry Lajoie in Cleveland
that went to Gotham via freight
train.
The wall hit by the ball in
Lieutenant YOung's yarn is a
most unusual hazard. 1t is 90
feet high and about 100 feet
~ from the tee. The green Is 200
yards away and within the
castle grounds. Incidentally, d
mOat adds to the troubles of tho
player on one Of the other
holes. It's = queer layout,
indeed.
Lieutenant Young knew Of only
one player who could reach the
green OF the wall hole, or get near
| it consistently with his tee poke.
He hit a trick shot with a brassie.
The usual method was to get over
