Having shown plenty Of stuff
during his consecutive appearances
against the Detroit Tigers, the "a
year.old sidewinder seems ripe for
a shot at a regular job.
Hampered somewhat by the cold
weather earlier in the spring, Brown
now Is in a position to show his
best, having adjusted himself 70
the present unreasonable climatic
conditions.
Holding the battering Detroit
Bengals scoreless during a one
inning appearance Tuesday, the
young portsider yesterday came
through with another runless exhibit

relieving Bump Hadley with one
out and two on deck in the sixth.

series. I'd like to see the boy get
started early because / know what
he can do when he hits his stride. "
Brown is the type of pitcher that
shows best over the route. being a
tough man to beat once he is
properly warmed up. His main diff
ficulty so far has resulted in his
inability to get going on short
notice.
AdOlph Liska, the brainy
young submariner, today will at
tempt to prevent a clean sweep
when the Griffmen conclude
their current series with the
Detroit Tigers at Navin Park.
Liska will be working for a real
premium in this start, having been
promised a furlough during the st.
Louis Brown series If he continues
his good work.
Bidding for the lay.off which
would give him an opportunity to
visit the home folks near Lincoln,
Neb., the underhander is expected to
draw Victor Sorrell, another right
handler, as an opponent.

TT 100, 900 Golfers, representing all
i the Golf Clubs in the United
States, asked you to pick the one
best Golf Shoe in the World, how
would you go about it?
We considered this our problem and
this is what we did:
We secured letters of introduction to
a number of best known Amateur
and Professional Golfers in England.
and sent an expert over to interview
these men-visit the famous Golf
Courses of England - sketch the
Styles as they stepped up to the first
tee, look them over carefully at the
10TH hole.
Our Representative spent a month
roaming over England and shopping
in London.
He bought 26 pairs of Golf Shoes,
ranging in price from $40 to $42 in
American money, and took this
collection of high-priced Golf Shoes
direct from London to the
Headquarters of the Royal and
Ancient game at St. Andrews,
Scotland.
Now if there is any One man in the
World best qualified to select the
One best Golf Shoe from the 26
different styles we brought to St.
Andrews - that man is Andra
Kirkaldy-60 years. Golfer-for the
last 10 years Professional at the
Royal and Ancient Club of St.
Andrews.
The Shoes were placed on table
with ali price marks and labels
removed-and when Andra Kirkaldy
selected this Shoe he didn't know
the Price nor the name of the Maker
but after carefully examining every
shoe, he picked up this one and said,
ITS as good a shoe for golf as
eUer I sGtU. Ye Gamma iUeGF these

Immediately afterward before re-

Laced for 13 safeties while his
mates were collecting only eight,
Pitcher George Uhle nevertheless
managed to display power in the
pinches yesterday while winning his
fifth game of the 1929 American
League season from the Washing
ton Griffmen, to 4.
Some faulty handling of Geh.
ringers single by Sammy Rice in
the fifth assisted the home team
in it's deciding three run squirt.
Uhle started the fiasco with a
single to center and Johnson walked.
Harry Rice took the count on
strikes but Gehringer's poke to right,
which was bobbled by Sam Rice reg.
istered Uhle and sent Johnson to
third. Heilmann's sacrifice fly and
Alexander's single did the rest.
Hadley, who was smacked for the
Tigers total score, retired with two
on and one out in the sixth. Brown

SECONDARY ROADS IMPORTANT


Good roads pay dividends.

Industry is attracted to local
tiles which can offer high class.
extensive road system. Agri
culture is encouraged and farm
values increase. Their import
ance in connecting distant com
munities, cannot be estimated.
Road building is a leading item
in the tax budget. Coupled with
education, it is probable that
highways are today the most
important aid to social progress.
We have, in the United States,
a state highway system that is
unexcelled. From now on the
most important job is to pave
tens of thousands of miles of
secondary or market roads. Oil
and asphaltic materials which
can be applied economically will
do away with mud and dust.
