THINGS are beginning to hum
Il around Highland this week as
the twelfth annual Indiana Women's
Golf Association state. tournament
hobs up a few days away. Next
Monday morning, action will start
over the popular north side links
and from what we can gather, the
week, from the very beginning, is
likely to be filled with new records.
For instance. the entry list Last year,
when the officers gathered at Coquillard
on Friday to arrange pairings there were
just eight advance entries in the mailbOx.
Today, Mrs. c. A. Jaqua of Highland, who
is the corresponding secretary for the
event this year, has more than sixty paid
up promises to play. And the women at
Highland are beginning to think Mrs. H. M.
Bennett, vice-president of the state as
ISOLATION, knew what she was talking
about when she predicted a field of be-
tween 10 and 120, which will be the first
new record.
The next new record likely to be set is
the medalist score. Eliza beth Abbott now
in California, who was the star at Avalon
toured her nome course in 81 blows when
the state tourney was held there in 1881
Miss Elizabeth Dunn. eight times city
champion, did Coquillard last year in 81
and the next low was by Mrs. Robert Clip
son at Terre Haute in 1923.
But we have a feeling that the 80 mark
will be broken this year for another new
record.
Those who think by any chance that
90, such enabled a player to qualify in
the championship flight at South Bend,
will get anywhere this year had better get
those foolish ideas out of their heads. In
fact, Mrs. Bennett is pretty certain 1t will
take a 30 or 81 at the outside to get the
sixteenth position after counting over
fourteen women who have fred scores in
the sos this summer and she frankly ad-
mits she has been unable to check up on
all the PLAYERS.

DODGERS PARE.
GIANTS LEAD.
Leslie Makes Brilliant De-
but With Former Team,
On Friday

NEW YORK, June IT. (CPl
Memphis Bill Terry thought
his New York Giants had paid IN
full Thursday for outfielder LET
ty O'Doul and pitcher Lefty
Clark when he gave Brooklyn
first basemau Sam Leslie, out
the Dodgers continued to collect
on the trade yesterday by
trouncing the Giants, ) to l.
This last contribution to
Brooklyn was costly for the
Giants because it cut their first
place lead in the National league
standing to only four percentage
points over the idle st. Louis
Cardinals, and it was particular
" disheartening for Manager
Terry because Leslie did the col
lecting in person for his new
mates.
Replacing the veteran Joe
Judge on the Dodgers first base,
Leslie madea brilliant debut in a
Brooklyn uniform by winning
the game with two runs driven
in. Danny Taylor doubled in the
sixth. advancing to third on
Johnny Frederick's out. Then
Leslie drove q long fly to Davis
in center, and Taylor scampered
home, after the catch.
Leslie made the victory certain
in the ninth. AdOlph Luque, the
smart Cuban veteran, was pitch
ing for New York, with one
Brooklyn batsman out. Leslie
stepped into one Of Adolph,S
thick deliveries and sent the ball
soaring into the right field
stands for a home run. He was
given a grea tovation by the
5000 fans at the Polo Grounds
because Leslie is mighty popular
in both BaliwickS, the Bronx
and Brooklyn.
Brooklyn made its first tally
in the third frame when Johnny
Frederick drove in Taylor with
a single. New York gained its
lone tally in the ninth by COM
bining two singles and a long
fly for run.
Lefty O'Daul made his debut
with the New York by pinch
hitting for pitcher Hal Schumach-
er in the seventh. He grounded
weakly to Leslie. Van Mungo
yielded eight hits TO the Giants
but kept them adroitly scattered,
while the Dodgers collected six
off Schumacher and Luque. New
York made two errors.
Meanwhile, Chicago gained on
the third-place Pirates by crush
ing Pittsburgh, 9 to l, after
hammering Swift, Kremer, Har-
ris and Hoyt for Is hits, includ-
ing Frank Demaree's homer in
the third with two aboard. The
Cubs got off to three-run lead
in the first frame when they
drove Bill Swift to the showers
with a barrage of five hits. Guy
Bush held the Corsairs helpless
until the ninth, allowing them
only four hits until that inning.
Pittsburgh staged a belated rally

doubles by Gus Suhr and Bob
