building, after it had passed the

the second deficiency bill calling
for an appropriation of $2O,O00
for the erection of a memorial
museum at the Custer battlefield.
While the appropriation of $20,-
600 is less than one-third the
amount provided in the original
bill, it is felt the passage of the
present bill would afford sufficient
foundation to get the memorial
building under way, and that
further funds will be forthcoming,
when needed. It is believed this
bill will pass both houses.

Back on their native heath to-
day after a tour of the seven
alien cities of the American
League, the Griffmen meet the
champion Tigers this afternoon.
the first series in the Vests
counter attack that will end on
May %. The team opens its
first protracted honestly with
an average of 500 for the sea-
son. They are in fifth place.
Despite their position on the
seasons play to date, the boys
cleared the fifty-fifty notch
abroad by a margin of one game.
They won nine games and lost
eight since leaving Griffith Sta
dunn last month. Their average
for the road is .529, bit short
of the objective designated by
Harris who had hoped to return
three games over 500 mark.
Not one series was completed
in the West. Two games were
rained out in Cleveland and one
each in Chicago, st. Louis and De-
troit. In all, eight games were
played, with the GriffS losing live.
They had far better luck in the
East where they won six out OF
nine played. The Griffs lost only
one series on the seaboard: to the
Yanks. They bowed to Chicago
and Cleveland, beat the Browns
and split with Detroit.
Lack of Batting Punch
Lack of batting punch in
pinches played havoc with the
Griffs. There was that game in
Chicago, for instance, where no
fewer than IA men were left
stranded while the team lost a
5-4 game. BY tricks and combina-
lions of circumstances, Buddy
Myer remains the leading run
producer of the outfit. He has
driven in IS runs this season. He
kept the team in the game yes
terday, and might have won the
game with a little more enter
prise on the part of Powell in
the bases.
