Vosmik's History
Sells Cleveland
"Farm" Club Idea
CLEVELAND. O. If only the
Cleveland Indians can grow another
Joe Vosmlk, one of the most sensa
tional first-year players In baseball i
usior. on meir newiy -acquired mx
lrdo farm they will be well satisfied
with the Investment.
Had tho Indians not owned the
Frederick club or tho Blue Ridge
circuit three years ago it Is probable
Vofcmik would still be playing on the
sandlots.
When the Indians sent Vosmlk to
Frederick In 1929, the rookie made
a miserable showing the first week.
It is probable that had the club
been Independently owned the man
ager would have scAi him home.
But the Cleveland management had
scn more of him, and wouldn't be
lievo it had a lemon. Joe was or
dered kept In the lineup.
In a few days he began hitting his
stilde and hasn't stopped going yet.
Fred trick Club Sold
The result sold Pres. Alva Bradley
cf the Cleveland club on the farm
Idea, although Frederick. Md.. and
Terro Haute, Ind.. farms proved bad
imnciuy and tney were sold, bo
when opportunity came to get an op
tion with privilege to buy a class AA
outfit Bradley took the chance.
The Ind tails' only other adventure
In farms was In 1914 when the To
ledo club was purchased and brought
to Cleveland for two years. This,
however, was a "war measure" de
signed to fight the Federal league
of that time.
For some time the Indians have
had a working agreement nvith the
New Orleans Pelicans, an arrange
ment that is expected to continue.
Platers Fell Short
Cleveland ventures Into chain farms
were failures partly beoause the ex
periments were In smaller leagues
and pUyers could be developed only
to a point Just short of big league
fctl. Now the Indiana hope to ue
veiop players through class A at New
Orleans, and class A A at Toledo, to
the big league.
For the most part the club has
drawn its strength from clubs be
low class AA. D:ek Porter, of Balti
more, and Earl AvertU. of an Fran
tlsco, are the outstanding excep
tions. Among rvvcul&r pitchers Wes
ley Ferrell, Willis Hudlin. Mel
ucrder and Clint Brown, alt came
Irctn class A or below.
AUSTRALIAN IN
RECORD TIME
IN 220 SPRINT
SYDNEY. Australia. Jan. 18 P
J. R. Carlton. Australian sprinter,
equalled the world's record for the
320-yard dash today, covering the
distance in 80 3-5 seconds in the
Australian athlttte championship
meet.
Carlton, who was assisted by a
slight breeiee, wen comfortably, eisht
yards ahead of Davidson, his nearest
competitor. He ts 22 years old and
one of the greatest sprintors Au
tndia has produced. It is believed
here he will have to be reckoned
with in the Olympic sprints at Los

Pacific Coast Holds
In Intersectional Football Battles
Morrison Wins
Five Thousand
Dollar Tourney
Ily Paul Zimmerman
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
AQUA CALIENTE. Mexico, Jan. 18
(I'hAfter half a dozen years partici
pation in golf tournaments, Fred
Morrison, who smiled through many'
rounds, barren of large money stakes,
today had ths pleasure of his first
big victorious chuckle.
The big, powerrui proiessionai
from Fox Hills country club. Culver
City. Col., yesterday out gamed one
of the greatest gamesters of golf,
Oenc Sarazen, to win the third an
nual Agua Calient 3 open, and Its
rich stake of S5000 first prize money.
Two spectacular sub-par rounds of
00 on the first day and 08, equal to
the course record, on the third 18,
made It possible for the pleasant
mannered native son of California to
llnleh with a 73-hole total of 284,
four strokes better than par. He had
a 73 on the last round yesterday
and 74. two over par, on tho second
ib notes.
Sn raze n Second
Playing in the same threesome with
ond, and OUn Dutru, Santa Monica,
Cal., big Spanish conquistador who ,
has always finished high in this, the !
richest of ail golf cuts, Morrison
staged a determined finish to win by j
two strokes.
Dutra came In third with a 287,1
still one better than par In a flnlsn
which tho Gallery or some 3000 per
sons has seldom had the privilege of
witnessing. ,
A greatly Improved putting and
short Iron ganja made Morrison's
sensational triumph possible. He
3-puttd no more than half a dozen
greens during the test, which saw
scoring surpass by nine strokes the
best totals registered in cither of
the previous cliamplonshlps.
Sarazen played the same steady
game which netted htm the first title
in 1930, shooting 70-72-72-72. to walk
off with second money, 62500. Gene
said before the tourney opened that
284 would win. but ho little realized
tho accuracy of the prediction at the
time, or that he might be privileged
to participate In the stirring finish.
Hurry Cooper Slips
Finishing badly with a 76. by far
tho most unsteady round he played
during tho tournament. Horry Coop
e., Chicago, came In for fourth prize
money, $900. The light horseman of
the mlddlewest by way of Texas,
started out with 72. took 71 and 70
lor his 289 strokes,
By strange coincidence, Morrison
failed to place In the money two
years ago In this tournament, and
lust year took unto himself only
1116 67, but this was another year.
It was also a strange turn of fate
1 which gave Culver City two titles,
for Pay Coleman, young amateur from
tho California country club, won the
play-for-pleasure prize by shooting
20 fj, two strokes better than Joe
Hunter, Pasadena. Cal.. who finished
second. Johnny Dawson. Chicago.
took third among the Slmon-Purcs
with 300 strokes.
The professional horde moves on
to Phoenix. Ariz., this week, for the
92500 open there Friday, and then
will trek through the southern route
of the winter golden golf trail.

baseballs to a South Dakota semi
pro team.
Here we combineoU major helps to 6ght
coughs to the limit from the start.
Because of this expensive combi
nation, Creomulsion costs a little more
than lesser helps, but your druggist
guarantees it. Ho returns your money
if you ask for it.
A three-day cough is a danger sig
nal. There you must use Creomulsion
to be sure. But is it wise to trust
any cough to lesser help when the
utmost is at your command? You never
know where a cough may lead. Treat
it with the best men know.
