Appeal for Red Builders

With two daily editions Of the
New York Daily Worker scheduled
to begin on Oct. I, the Red Build
ers are in urgent need of additional
forces, stated an appeal issued yes

I'VE need so more Red Builders

X-RAY TO APPRAISE
SANDLOTTER'S HURT
Carey P. Maupin, Struck by
Pitched Ball, Thought to Have
Conclusion of Spine.

U-RAYS were taken at George
\ town University Hospital today
to determine the extent Of in
juries suffered by Carey Maupin, 2l-
year-old outfield star of the Miller
Furniture Co. nine, when struck in
the back with a pitched ball during
his teams 8-to-5 losing battle with
the Rockville A. A. at Rockville yes
terday.
1t was said today by DR.. A. w.
Schlee that the youth probably is suf-
fering from severe conclusion of the
SPINE" but that X-rays definitely will
determine the nature of his hurts.
Maupin was injured at the outset
of the game. He laid down neat
bunt and sprinted for first base. Will
liam Coleman, Rockville twirler. tore
in, fielded the ball, wheeled and threw
to first base, but the pitch struck
Maupin slightly below the shoulders
and felled him.
Apparently shaking off the effects
of the blow, Maupin continued in the
game and drove out home run in
the fourth inning and single in the
sixth frame, but he partially collapsed
as the contest went into the eighth
inning and was rushed to the hospital
for treatment.
Six runs in the sixth inning and
two more in the eighth gave Rockville
the decision after Miller had taken a
5-to-0 lead in the first four frames
of the battle. Case led Rockville's
attack with home run and a single,
while Maupin was the batting hero
for the losers.
Cabin John Volunteer Fire Depart
ment, led by Jim Crown, downed the
Waycroft A. c., 10 to 6, at Cabin
John. Crown hit safely in three of
his four trips to the plate.
Poolesville High School, which has
won from Gaithersburg and Rockville
in its two starts this season, was to
meet Sherwood High School at Sandy
Spring this afternoon. Rockville High
will be met at Poolesville tomorrow.

Golf Notes

Two Washington golfers are being
congratulated today on holes-in-one
scored yesterday. At Columbia L. j.
Goode holed an iron shot for an ace
on the 160-yard thirteenth hole, in a
game with A. s. Gardiner. jr., Maury
Nee and H. Page Cornwell. At East
Potomac Park George B. Clark hit a

ZACH shooting one of his best games.
Melvin Kraft, one of the best of the
younger golfers Of the club, shot an
80 with a 10 handicap for 10.
Lily Harper, the Portsmouth lass
who is generally conceded to be a
company star in this section, was
home today after pair Of 82s scored
on hard local courses. Miss Harper
followed her 81 at Washington on Sat-
urday with another 81 at Columbia
yesterday, playing each nine in Al.
She played in a game which included

MARYLAND HEADS
GROUP FROM D. c.
Sends Two Relays, Enters
Other Events-Big Week
Here for Colleges.
BY H. C. BYRD.

THE University of Pennsyl-
vania relays should be the
center of intercollegiate
L athletic competition this
week, at least as far as the
Eastern section of the country
is concerned. Practically all the
universities and colleges, as well
as high and preparatory schools,
are certain to take part, while
many Middle Western and
Southern athletes also are en-
tered.
No track carnival of the year sur
passes the Penn relays. Some of the
finest competition to be seen on the
track and in the field events takes
place, and the coming Friday and
Saturday are not likely to be an ex-
ception in this regard. Besides, the
big Eastern universities, Chicago,
Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio
State and others in that part OF the
Nation have often sent teams and
men for individual events.
Possibly representation from Wash
ington may not be very great. George
town and Catholic University have
made some entries, but about the only
local school due to send up two relay
teams and one or two men for other
events is Maryland. The Old Liners
stand a fair chance to win the 100
with Widmyer. and they will have
one of their best mile teams in COM
petition, and probably sprint four
also.

~ OSTON, April 23.-For many
- years golfers have been won
n dering how Francis Ouimet,
IL captain and charter member
of the American Walker Cup
team that will engage the British at
historic st. Andrews next month, finds
the time to keep his marvellous game
at its high and even pitch.
The answer is he doesn't-find the
time, that is.
For Francis, despite his amazing
competitive record, which dates back
to 1918, when, at the tender age of
20, he astounded the world by defeat
ing the supposedly invincible Brit
ishers. Harry Vardon and Ted Ray,
Is only a week end golfer.
He is the key man in bustling Bos-
ton brokerage house, and, except in
Walker Cup years, there are seldom
more than two weeks In every So when
he can escape from his stock ticker
and really play golf.
This Spring, while most of his 1894
teammates were burning up far-scat-
tered courses almost daily as they
primed themselves for the eighth of
the series of international matches,
Francis prayed for fair week ends so
he might break in new set of clubs
he assembled for his fourth cup quest
to England.
Even before he gained the 1918
open Francis always was long and
straight. He never has lost his accu-
racy from the tee to green, and the
only department that ever fails him
Is his putting. That is of now. 1t
always is in the Spring. But few
long ones drop.
Since Francis has been a member
of every Walker Cup team. the only
one on this years aggregation able
to boast such a service record, the
St. Andrews layout is almost as ia
miliar to him as his own woodland
course.
Twice before Walker Cup matches
have been played on that sacred turf.
But it has not been the scene of a
typical Ouimet triumph. In 1928 he
halved his singles match with Roger
Wethered and lost the foursome play
with Jess Sweetser to Wethered and
Cyril Tolley, and S. Three years
later Wethered beat him S and and
teamed with Sir Ernest Holderness
to trounce Francis and Jesse Guilford
4 and 3.
But Francis has by no means been
bust" in Walker Cup play. His sin
giles record for the entire series in
cludes three victories, two halves and
two defeats, and his foursome tally

also may fall. Crowned by Ralph
Metcalfe Of Marquette and Roland
Locke Of Nebraska. The former is
expected to dissolve the partner
ship this season. For two years the
Marquette meteor has won the
century at Drake. 1t is his ambi-
ton to make it three straight and
q new record.
Other dash men who are consid-
cred able foes for Metcalfe are
Willis Ward, Michigan's all-around
star; Ralph Herman Of Carleton
and Hall of Kansas.
The special 2-mile event again
will be topped by an unusual ath-
lete. This years standout is Ray
Sears of Butler University, who
turned in . new American record
Of 9:07.8 In New York. He expects
to discard Henry Brocksmith's
