McKechnie Crew Causes 48
Errors Among Foes in
Last 22 Games Giants
Worst Jinx Sufferers
By GWLE TALBOT.
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Bill McKechnle's Boston Braves
may not win the National league
flag this year, but they promise to
establish a lasting recora lor de
moralizing the opposition.
In 22 games the battling Bos-
tonlans have been helped along by
48 opponents' errors.
tvi ftinnto hnvA suffered most
from the Jinx. In six engagements
with the Braves they committed 17
bobbles, eight in one afternoon and
five another. Brooklyn made 10 in
five games, Philadelphia seven in
five.
Cubs Make Seven Bobbles.
Now come the league leading Chi
cago Cubs with a threat to surpass
anything previously done. Facing
Boston for the first time yesterday,
they managed to compile seven er
rors, more than sufficient to give
the Braves an 8 to 3 victory behind
Ed Brandt.
The Cubs young lnfielders. Bill
Herman and Bill Jurges, divided
most of the hard luck between them,
kserman with four bobbles and Jur-
' ges with two.
Brandt had the Cubs baffled until
the last of the ninth, when Johnny
Moore nicked him for a home run
with two on. The loss cut Chi
cago's lead over the Braves to two
games.
Dodgers Trim Reds.
The Brooklyn Dodgers won first
blood in their long-awaited series
with Cincinnati, 6 to 2, as Babe
Phelps hurled scoreless ball after
the first Inning. Joe Strlpp and
Tony Cuclnello, former Reds, played
a big part in the victory.
Jess Haines made his Initial start
of the year for the St. Louis Cardi
nals and beat the Phillies, 8 to 2.
The Giants opener at Pittsburg
was rained out, and only one Ameri
can league engagement escaped the
elements. Cleveland nosed out the
Boston Red Sox, 5 to 4, when Dick
Porter's double scored Clssel after
two were out in the ninth.

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.
He Intends to remind the Bucs each
day how bad they were the day be
fore. In other words, there will be
dally "skull drills" In the club house
and Gtbby will point out Just what
was wrong with the picture the day
before, win. lose or draw.
The dally conferences cant be
styled as "pep meetings." They'a to
be serious gatherings, in which the
flaws of the last game will be gone
over with all efforts toward correction.
When Glbby wore the mask and
glove, h was recognized as one of
the smartest men In the catching:
business. He always played headsup.
There are few instances, the books
show, where Glbby was guilty of a
real "boner."
And now that he's back as a pilot,
he's going to insist that his men play
the same brand of game.
