Harrison Jimmie" Johnston, the former national amateur cham pion, is the inventor of new in- door golf diversion that seems like | ly to keep the spirit of competition alive in the winter time, in the home, the backyard or the club room.
 It is called Dart Golf" and as the name implies it is based on the idea of throwing darts, from distances of three to six yards, at a target on which composite golf layout is pictured, including every thing from an unplayable lie and water hazard to a -in-one, the latter corresponding to the bulls eye"
 It's big chunk of entertainment, with all the possibilities of marks manship and trouble common to the royal and ancient game itself, if can base a verdict on trial mach with Jimmy recently.
 He quickly had me three down in three holes, which is about as well as he could he expected to do under the circumstances, but by a supreme effort I managed to halve hole or two.
 Johnson has done the course" in AS, which is 21 under par and a record that Bob Jones can shoot at without having any concern about his amateur status. Jim mie' spent a lot of time develop ing Dart Golf" before turning it loo5e and he has worked out it's features along scientific golflng lines.

BOSTON BRAVES
 SHOWING CLASS IN
 EARLY 1881 GAMES
By LEO II. PETERSEN

NOmtSu ICSS otdh SOIGCSDOnuehLsJ New York, April 17.-(UP)- With the exception of the Brooklyn Robins, major league baseball teams have lived up to preseason expectations in games to date.
 The Robins, rated as one of the clubs that would be in the thick of the National League pennant race, have faltered badly. Their pitching staff has not lived up to predictions, and the heavy hitters have failed to come through.
 As a result, the Boston Braves, charted as a team that would cause plenty of trouble, but accorded Ht- tie chance to finish in the first divi- sion, have hung up their consecutive victories over Brooklyn. The Braves have had fair hurling, while their rockies have more than measured up to major league standards.
 Going Good
 Before the 1881 season started, the pitching staff fo the St Louis Cardinals was hailed as one of the best in organized baseball. In three straight victories over the Cincir- nati Reds the Cardinal hurlers have displayed the same form that last season. So far Manager Gabby Street has not missed Chick Hafey, the holdout outfielder.
 New York's representatives the | Giants and Yankees, have justified | the opinions of the dopesters with the Yankees receiving better pitch. ing than expected. The Giant hurl. | CTS have shown little but the hit l ters have been busy and as a result the men of McGraw have taken two out of three from the Philadelphia Phillies.
 The Phillies have received little aid from their mound staff but the club is hitting the ball as hard as ever with Chuck Klein, star outfield- CT, leading the way.
 Washington and the Philadelphia Athletics, picked as the two most formidable contenders for the Amer ican League pennant, have per- formed as expected. Timely hitting and good pitching has enabled the Senators to take two out of three closely contested games from the world champions.
 On the Skids Cincinnati and the Boston Red Sox are starting out as if they will land in the cellar of their respec- tive leagues. The Red Sox. have dropped three in a row to the Yam kees while the Reds have lost three to the Cardinals. Both teams have received good pitching but the clubs lack heavy hitters.
 The Chicago Cubs demonstrated in their games with the Pittsburgh Pi- rates that they are fully as danger ous as rated. The Pirates won yes tcrday while the Cubs won the first two tits.
 The St Louis Browns, considered sure second division finisher, have surprised fans by defeating Detroit two games out of three. The Browns rockies have come through in good style while the pitching has been excellent. Bucky Harris hurl- CTS still are cratic.
 Cleveland and the Chicago White Sox have displayed nothing excep- tional. Denie Bush's men have provided the Indians plenty of op- position because of good pitching but the White Sox lack power at the plate. Cleveland has won two of the three games.

 On the Hop.
 Neither the Yankees pitching nor batting has been sensational in the three victories to date, but the team has played heads up" ball and talk en advantage of every break. Me- Carthy is known as 8 leader of hard fighting teams and if the Tanks con- tinue their present type of play they are certain to be hard to beat es- pecially when the pitching and hit ting starts to click.
 Herb Pennock, veteran of the Yankee mound staff, turned in the teams best pitching performance of the year when he let Boston down with 8 hits yesterday and won his game. to 1. A triple by Lou Gehrig scored the first New York run and a wild throw to home by Lisenbee with three on and one out produced the winning tally in the ninth.

 in the series. The Athletics were handicapped by the absence of First Baseman Jimmy Foxx, who is out of action with strained fragments in his leg, and neither Hank Mcdonald, nor George Earnshaw could hold the Washington team.
 The St Louis Browns dropped from a tie with the Yankees for first when they lost 12-inning bat tie to Detroit, 6 to 5. The Browns camp from behind to tie the score in the ninth and again in the tenth, only to nave walk to Gehringer and long single by Alexander score the winning run in the 18th.

 Boston's Braves continued as the surprise team of the National league winning their third straight from Brooklyn, 2 to 4, and remaining in a tie with St Louis for the lead. The Braves scored runs off Dazzy Vance on as many hits, while big Ed Brandt kept the Brooklyn suggers in check.
 Tt St Louis Cardinals kept pace by defeating Cincinnati, to 3. Wes Frey kept the Cards in hand for six innings, but was the victim of a three-run attack in the seventh. and St Louis continued the assault on Eckert.

 Clarence DeMar, the 42-year-old Keene, N. H., teacher and seven time winner of the race, remained the favorite, but many another vet eran was conceded a good chance of breaking the tape.
 For the Family
 DeMar will have an added incen- tive to win this year, for his wife and seven-m onths-old daughter will be watching the finish line for the first time from a nearby hotel win dow.
 Among the substantial batch of entries received yesterday was the Finn from Quincy who won the event in 1919 and who has a third, fourth and two-fifths in his record.

Too many golfers have the wrong impression about shifting the weight to the right leg. I think the golfer would improve his backswing a great deal If he would bear in mind to throw the weight over against a stiffened right leg instead of onto it.
 With the weight against the right leg 1t is only natural that the head will be kept still and the body TO- tate mostly above the hips. The style of Willie McFarlane is adapted to illustration.
