Hughes or Best will occupy the mound for Jacksonville when the Eagles Invade the former county seat, and Ben Coffman, former Jacksonville hurler Is scheduled to pitch for the lodgemen. The Jacksonville game Is also timed for 2:30 Sunday, By O. B. KEEI.ER j Associated Press Writer Leo Dlegel did a pitch-hold In one stroke In the 1031 National open championship at Inverness, but as he did not go ahead and win the com petition by one stroke a grrat many persona were spared the exhaustive calculation that a par 3 on that hole would have lost him the champion ship by one stroke. Chasteen Hnrrts, however, In the qualifying round of the Southern amateur championship at the Belle Meade Country Club, Nashville, holed the 250-yard fifteenth in one atroke; and, as things turned out. If he had taken as many as two on that hole, he would not have quali fied. Which recalls a number of epi sodes, one of them narrated not long ago by Mr. Bernard Darwin, the great English writer of golf, concern ing old Jamie Anderson, in the Brit ish open of 1878, which was before I was born, though not long. Fate Jamie was playing his last round, and at the seventeenth, a one-shot- ter, he Inadvertently teed the ball athead of the markers a mistake that subjects the competitor to dis qualification in a medal competition. A young lady in the gallery called Jamie's attention to the matter. He thanked her, re -teed the ball back of the line and holed outl It is safe to assume that, played from the other position (even with out disqualification) the ahot would not have stopped in the same plaoe. And, to make the story better, Jamie won the championship by one stroke. Corrected Firing Mr. Darwin has even m better one than that, however. It seems that an English amateur named Palmer the same C. A. Pal mer who beat Jerry Travers In the first round of the British amateur at Sandwich in 1014 was playing at a French course, Le Touquet, and after his first round registered a com plaint at the clubhouse with the manager, that the direction flag on a certain short hole a blind one shotter over a hill was off the proper line. Mr. Palmer was Instructed that he was at liberty to replace the direc tion flag: and .he was meticulous enough to go right out and do it. In the afternoon round Mr. Palmer came to that hole, shot directly over the corrected flag and holed out for an ace I Hole That Vanished Alex Ross, at Plnehurst, told me a puzzler not long ago speaking of holes in one. He waa playing with another man named Ross at & Detroit course; Red Run, I think it was. Anyway, it was early in the morning, and they came to the tee of a short hole, an iron shot, while the greenkeeper was changing the position of the pin. Mr. Ross the other Mr. Rosa hit a good ahot and the ball rolled Into the original hole, from which the flag and Vie "can" had been re moved, the other hole having been cut already in another part of the green. The flag and the can were not In either hole when the shot was struck. If you can figure out whether thnt wha ti hale In one. or what. you might writ to Alex Ross about I it, at Plnehurst, and he might in form the other Ross. Nobody seems to know Just what happened. SKULL DRILLS 10 CORE PIRATES OF GLARING FAULTS PITTSBURGH (AP) It's simply art old stunt with reverse English, but Manager George Gibson is going to try to talk the Plttnbuigh Pirates out of the second division.
