Mighty Tee WaMOps
Soldier Lloyd Martz, Home on Leave, Shows He
Can Still Powder Ball in District Meet
BY NJ. +. DRUKENBRoD

Lloyd Martz. beg pardon. Staff
Sergeant Lloyd Martz of Camp
Robinson, Little Rock, Ark, still
can powder a golf ball.
Home for a brief visit with his
parents. Sergeant Martz lined up
with his old eliminates from Gin
ton Valley at Lakepointe yester-
day in a district league match.
His team lost, 1871 -Sh, and
quite a few others in the league
turned in scores under his II, but
those who saw him play will
wager than none matched his wal
lops off the tee.
CARRIES THE CREEK
One of his best drives was on
Lakepointe's second hole where
shooting into the wind, he was
well over the creek. If you know
this hole you'll admit that was
terrific wallop.
But be sure to tell my friends
how 1 finished the hole" Ser
geant Martz said when asked
about this drive.
Although it looked as if he could
kick the ball home after his tee
shot, he was over the green with
his second, messed up several other
shots-and wound up with dou-
BILE DOGGY 7. The result was 4O
on this nine, but he played the
second half in 81.
The day before he had a 68 al
Lochmoor with a Z on the
twelfth.

Tiger Cubs Set
Hot Pace in
Minor Leagues
BY EDGAR HAYES

Like a mother eagle proud OF
her eaglets' first flights. Wisn
Egan chuckles TO himself and
then out loud every time he reads
of his lads in the minors. Al
Beaumont in the Texas League
and Winstom-Salem in the Pied
mont League these Tiger cubs are
setting a dizzy pace.
+ Take Dick Wakefield for ex-
ample. Last year Dick was play
ing right field for University OF
Michigan. Today he is hitting .375
to lead the Texas League. Class
A group where the pitching has
always been the toughest. Or
look at Walter (Hoot) Evers, just
two years off the Illinois campus.
Hoot is batting 1865 and has hit
in the first Is games at Beau
mont. Just the other day he got
four for four. including the game
winning hofhe run.
Then there is Stub Overmirc,
the pitcher who has won six games
and lost none. And in 80 innings
he has given up but two runs. He
leads the Texas League in vic
tories.
MUELLER UNBEATEN
Pressing him is Leslie Mueller,
who has won three and lost none.
That's just a fraction of Les rec
ord, though he has given up a
grand total of two runs in 81 in
nings and leads the league in
with Al. His control is
excellent, with only eight walks
in the 81 innings.
1t is any wonder the Beau
mont nine is two and half games
out in front. Steve O'Neill is
the manager. He was coach with
the Tigers last year.
"Our biggest problem will be
keeping those boys there all
year." General Manager Jack
Zeller said today. There will be
plenty of pressure to bring
them up but we hope to give
them the needed experience this
quartet can get under O'Neill.
But they are all close to the
majors right now. The improve
ment shown by Wakefield In
fielding has been the talk Of the
Texas League"
John Lipon is another local boy
doing well at Beaumont. His field
ing is exceptionally good and his
is crowding the 300 mark.
Ex-PREP STARS
Over at Winston-Salem another
group is tickling the Tigers bosses
by their grand work. John Radu-
lovich, Detroit high school lad
playing second base, had an aver
age of .357 the last time the fig
ures came out. John McHale's
work around first base Is good and
his batting will get a lot better.
The same is true of Neal Barry.
Kalamazoo. at shortstop.
It's nice group to have
under your top team and no won
der Wish is so proud. Most OF
them are his discoveries.

 The commissioners were also con- cerned over filling the five existing vacancies now in the fire depart ment as all single men who are e-bodied and within the age limits are therefore eligible for the armed services of the government
 Members of the fire department are not exempted from military service, draft officials recently an- nounced. The board members in- dicated the department is in need of more men than those five who will be named scon.
 Training School
 A firemen defense training school to be started to combat emergencies which would arise from air raids was ordered by the board after a recommendation was made by Chairman Finton J. Phelan that such a school be formed. At the present time, Deputy Chiet Martin J. Campion and Capt Joseph J. Kelley, drillmaster are instructors for the firemen training courses which are drawing up a manual which will be presented 10 the State Defense. Council for adoption and are to serve a sinstructors in the training courses which will pre- pare regular and auxiliary fire de- partments throughout the state.
 Two pieces of equipment for the fire department will be purchased as soon as bids are advertised as ordered by the members of the board. The proposed apparatus to be bought will be a new 75O-gallon bumper and a 65-foot ladder truck, according to estimates prepared by Capt. George Holmes, in charge of the bureau of fire repairs.
 Capt. Holmes said the bumper will cost from $7,O00 to 5000 while the aerial truck will run between $14,O0O to $16000.
 Must Widen Door
 The head of the bureau of fire repairs told the members of the board that if tiller on the ladder truck is furnished, the cost will run from $16,5OO to $l8000, and if this truck with the tiller was purchased, it would necessitate enlarging the entrance of the Burton street sta- ton house by little more than a foot where the new ladder truck may be stationed.
 Indication of the cost offered by a construction company to make this alteration to the fire house would be about $750. The board seemed to incline to this idea of increasing the entrance since the ldader truck with tiller would cost 5000.
 Three applications were submit ted to the board for appointment to the call force of the fire depart ment and were plac deon file. They were Francis Palladino, John Maz- zarella and Bernard ROke.
