CHAPTER xxxH.
MOLLY's STORY.

he started out Of the room,

IF you have no objec-

into the syndicate. He'll certainly get
the sack from the hotel and we can't
let him down after the way he behaved
last night"
"I should think not" was the an
swer Besides, he'll be useful on the
Seagull. He can wash up and look
after George"
Leaving me to my ablutions, Jerry
took himself OF and, somewhat ham
pered by my damaged knuckles, I
proceeded to make hasty toilet. I
was in the act Of brushing my hair
when the gong sounded, and as I
came out into the hall, Molly emerged
| from the opposite bed room. Swathed
in a dressing gown at least three sizes
too large for her, she looked comically
pretty.
Good morning, Nick" she said
cheerfully. II hope you had a good
night"
Slept like top" replied. "And
you?"
She made q little grimace. "The
headaches gone, but I've still got a
funny taste In my mouth"
Breakfast will cure that" as
sured her. "How's the cheek?"
"It feels rather stiff and sore" She
tilted up her face. Am a dreadful
sight?"
inspected her carefully. "You look
lovely" I said. Like an angel on
her way to the bath room"
Angels don't have baths" she OBJ
jected. "They-oh, here's jerry"
Hello, Molly!" He had come out
of the study, followed by Jimmy, who,
in his crumpled livery, and with his
tousled hair, still seemed to be only
| half awake. This is a nice sort of
trick to play on chap!" he continued.

naped when I wasn't here to rescue
you"
Sorry, Jerry" She dropped him
a penitent curtsy. 1T was horribly
careless of me, wasn't it? If it hadn't
been for Nick and jimmy" She
stopped. "Oh, that reminds mel
haven't thanked you yet, Jimmy"
She crossed over to where he was
standing and, bending down, kissed
him on the cheek. II think you're the
bravest boy I ever met, and I really
am most frightfully grateful"
"Th-that's all right, miss" Jimmy
who had turned rich crimson, shifted
awkwardly from one foot to the other
"I-didn't do nothing. It was Mr.
Trench who sloshed 'im-not me

We all laughed.
Never mind" said Jerry consol-
ingly. You got the prize anyhow

He slipped his arm through Molly's
For PHYS sake, let's go in and make
start. I was up at o'clock this
morning and I'm simply famished."
Faced with a steaming dish of eggs
bacon and sausages, found that my
own appetite was by no means to be
despised. ladled out three generou;
helpings while Jerry attended to the
coffee, and dumped one of them down
in front of Molly.
Get your teeth into that, partner,
said, "and when you feel a bit
stronger you can tell us how it all
happened"
"I am ready to start now" she re-
piled. Il can talk and eat at the same
time"
With familiar gesture she brushed
back the lock of c6pper-colored hair
which had fallen forward across her
forehead.

SARAzEN and JOE
KIRKWOOD TOUR
LATIN GOLF LINKS
Pros Hope to Break New
Golf Trail Through So.
American Countries

Miami, Fla, March 26-(Special)
Gene Sarazen expects to be more
than an entertainer or ambassador
of good will on his South Ameri-
can golf tour, which began here
Tuesday March 21) when he and
Joe Kirkwood left by plane to open
q six-weeks' transforming jaunt
across the Lati-American continent.
Gene is going to break ground
for a winter tournament loop
through South America, similar to
the winter tour which the profess
SIGNALS have made in past years
through California and along the
Pacific coast. Making the entire
trip by air, Sarazen and Kirkwood
will play in every country on the
continent and will probe the pos
sibilities of organizing open cham
pionships.
Opportunity
with the number of large cities
and the bulk of population, South
America should be a wonderful
field for the boys" said Sarazen,
interviewed at the Miami Biltmore
Country club, where he is head of
the pro staff, before his departure.
The South Americans also have
produced q number of famous and
colorful players, chief among them
Jose Jurado. who has several times
had chances to win the British open
championship, and who played well
in the 1892 open at Fresh Meadow.
He can offer any one plenty of good
Stiff opposition and I'm sure there
are other golfers down there who
could help make open tournaments
mighty interesting"
Kirkwood, who is playing man.
ager Of the tour, has booked Sara
zen to play a 72-hole match with
Jurado a tBuenos Aires.
Sarazen believes the development
Of golf markets in South America
can be stimulated by introducing
open tournament play there, and
that the field Of the professional
golfer will consequently be broad
ened in every way. A successful
loop in South America as well as
in California and Florida will in
crease the opportunity for young
players Gene thinks.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-03-26

The Chicagoan was the same
chap who was the last man to de-
feat him in open play before he re-
tired from the competitive game
nearly four years ago.
Anyway Bobby will find out
whether it's habit at the second
masters tourney over the Augusta
National course next year. The lit
tie Albanian, who formerly ruled
the fairways of the world, made
this clear last night.
Once A Year
He emphasized he has not re-
turned to general play. He will re-
strict his competition to the mas
ters' tourney over the course in
which he has a considerable in
vestment.
Smith came through yesterday
with a final perfect 18-hole round
to climax four days of excellent
play. Despite blustery weather. he
toured the difficult course in even
par, 70, for a winning aggregate
of 284. Before he started Craig
Wood had turned in 285, and Billy
Burke, 286.
Smiths prize was $1,000. Jones
wound up 10 strokes behind with
d AS4p lieu LUZ 4oln pldCe, lWO
notches lower than he ever finished
in a National Open.
Second money went to Wood of
Deal N. j., Billy Burke, National
Open champion in 1881, and young
Paul Runyan of White Plainse N.
Y, tied for third with 286.
Also Played
Two strokes behind was Ed Dud-
ley, home pro Of the Augusta club,
with 28S. Willie MacFarlane of
Tuckahoe, N. Y, was next with
POI, followed by Harold McPaden,
AL Espinosa, Jimmy Hines and
Macdonald Smith with 292. Big
Mortie Dutra and AL Woutrous
were paired at 293, when Denny
Shute, British open champion, and
Walter Hagen of Detroit shared the
294 slot with Jones.
Smiths card for the four rounds
was 70-72-70-72-284, compared
with Bobby's 76-74-72-72-294.

GRIMES Is LAST
OF SPITBALLERS
in THE Big Time
Quinn and Faber Faded
Away During Winter
Season
BY FRED BAIIEY

United Press Stan Correspondent
Chicago (UP)-Only stout-heart-
ed old Burleigh Grimes stands be-
tween today and the time when
the spitball will be only q memory
in ajor league baseball.
Father Time counted out Red
other two members of the 1898
Faber> and John Picus Quinn, the
triumvifate, during the winter,
leaving Burleigh to carry on alone,
II he can.
Quinn, senior member of the
trio, will wear the uniform of the
San Francisco Seals of the Pacific
Coast League. Faber recently was
cut adrift by the Chicago White
Sox and left to shift for himself.
Free Agent
Grimes, who has seen service
with most Of the clubs in the Ma
tional League, is making every eff
fort to stick" with the st. Louis
Cardinals this season. The Cards
picked him UP as a free agent last
summer.
The fighting, snarling, stubble-
bearded old Burleigh, is not only
the lone spitball pitcher left, he
also is the Oldest active pitcher in
either league. Before the season
is over, IL he sticks, he will be Al.
There have been others close to
40 or more before they yquit or
were forced out of the big time.
Cy Young was on the verge of 40
when he stepped out. Babe Ad-
ans was through at AZ, Walter
Johnson at 4 0and Grover Cleve-
land Alexander at Al.
Youngster of Trio
Quinn, before he left Brooklyn,
claimed Al years, but his borth
record was never brought up to
support that claim and confound-
Doubling Thomasses. Grimes is
the 'youngster" of the trio Of
Faber, Queen and Grimes.
He believes he Is good for sew
eral more seasons. Like Faber
and Queen, Grimes, will rely on
more than q most ball to win
ball games. Ballplayers say he is
Ono @ of the smartest pitchers in
the game.
Much water has gone under the
dam and many players from the
major leagues since 1t was agreed
in December, 1920, that all bona
fide spitball hurlers then in both
league would be exempt during
the rest of their career from a
ruling against the moist ball.
At that time the pitchers so ex-
empted were Bill Doa, Phil Doug
las, Dana Fillingim, Ray Fisher,
Marvin Goodwin, Burley Grimes,
Clarence Mitchell, Dick Rudolph,
A. w. Ayers, Ray Caldwell, Stan
ley Coveleski, Red Faber, H. B..

Washington Hills Went
Down Fighting By 49,

Two capable substitutes, Bobby
Gair and Bubbles Balinsky, led
the Naugatuck Emeralds to the
City Amateur League champions
ship yesterday at the Central Y
where the defending champions,
the Washington Hills, bowed after
two five-minute overtime periods,
80 to 81, before close to 500 spec
tators. In the preliminary games
the Carringtons toppled the Brook
lyns, 40 to 80, and the Sacred
ted North End Thomas club, 80 to
20.
A Real Thriller
The main attraction which was
over at 6:10 D. m. satisfied each
and every spectator as there were
more thrills than a roller coaster
ride. However 1t was the poorest

Rozint All Done
Early in the first period Rubber
Town followers were gloomy when
Joe Rozint, erstwhile guard. was
carried from the floor when his
troublesome knee gave way from
under him after he attempted to
check Howie Kraft on the run.
However, Balinsky was inserted
into the fray and more than made
up for Rozint's loss. He with Bob
by Gair were an inspired pair and
proved continual thorns in the
sides of Hill shooters.
Naugy Has Punch
Balinsky's field goal with 26 Sec
onds to play enabled the green and
white send the game into extra
periods. AS the first overtime got
underway, Pete Foley's sensational
protege Of several years slipped

lead, 80 to 80. Hennie Cieslewski

Lallier missed an overhead shot
and as he followed up and recov-

went in, the basket was allowed
and another five minute overtime

Puts and pitches from the
Augusta Masters Invitation Coli
Tournament:
The quail and venison supper
given by Fielding Wallace after the
final round showed off Billy Burke
as the biggest eater of the lot.
Bobby Jones confessing that he
wanted his son to be golfer, but
that his daughter should master In
household economics And get
this straight. Robert Tyre is not
coming back to the wars, but will
confine his tournament COMPETE
ton to the masters invitation.
Bobby, for your information, has a
little money sunk in this course
and wants, understandable, to get
1t back.
The general belief is that the
iron shot Craig Wood played out
of the woods on the first hole of
his final round was the greatest
stroke ever made in golf. Wood
doesn't quite agree, saying it was
the luckiest, and not the greatest.
For your information. Craig stood
in q jungle worthy of a fawcett,
and put his trust In the all-highest
and swung. The ball dropped so
near the hole that he got his par
four when by all rights he should
have had a fifteen.

Chicago (UP). - A Missouri
mule kicked Buck Newsom, a
pitcher who won 80 games in the
Pacific Coast League last year, of
the Chicago Cubs and he landed
this year with the st. Louis
Browns.
Newsom was the property of the
Cubs when the mule let fly with
such accuracy that he had to re-
tire temporarily from baseball.
The time he was incapacitated
was chalked against the Cubs
right to farm him out.
Last winter the Cubs were
forced to sit back and watch tho
Browns. by reason of the fact they
finished last in the American
League, pluck him from the An
